Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 418 Troublemaker Meets Troublemaker [Part 1]

"So, this is Karshvar Draconis."

Lux couldn't believe what he was seeing.

A floating city in the sky, and all of its inhabitants had dragon blood flowing in their veins. Lux knew that being able to step into an SSS-Ranked Kingdom wasn't a simple task.

Usually, these Kingdoms didn't allow just any random stranger to enter their Domain, but due to the Half-Elf's circumstances, he was able to reach the fabled city of the Dragons through the power of the Dragon Token that Keoza had given him.

"It has been hundreds of years since I last saw this place."

A familiar voice reached Lux's ears, as the Dragon Token in his hand glowed faintly.

"Keoza?" The Half-Elf took a closer look at the Dragon Token in his hand. "There are a lot of things I want to ask you."

After the Crystal Dragon gave him the Dragon Token, the Grotto of the Forbidden Guardian was destroyed completely, leaving nothing behind.

The Half-Elf thought that he wouldn't see the Crystal Dragon again, but to his surprise, the Dragon that he could summon using the Dragon Token was none other than Keoza itself.

Also, there was an incident where Keoza materialized by itself without being summoned when Lux's Abyssal Powers had gone out of control.

Lastly, the Dragon Token, which he used to create a Guild, had unknowingly given him an unexpected surprise, granting him the one and only Mythical Guild in the world.

"I'm sure you have a lot of questions, but I don't plan on answering any of them," Keoza replied. "If you want your questions to be answered, do your best to meet the Dragon King. Depending on his mood, he might answer your questions or… you can become his lunch."

Keoza chuckled and not long after that, the Dragon Token stopped glowing.

No matter how much Lux called out to the Crystal Dragon, no one answered him, making him sigh helplessly.

"Well, I guess I'll go to the city first," Lux muttered as he gazed at the city in the distance.

However, before he could even take three steps from where he stood, dozens of Dragons roared in the sky and flew in his direction, making the Half-Elf wonder if they came to welcome him to their city.

Unfortunately, the warm welcome he envisioned didn't happen and, soon, the Half-Elf found himself surrounded by not only Dragons, but DragonBorns, who wielded spears that were pointed in his direction.

"Who are you and how did you come to the Sacred Land of the Dragons?" a DragonBorn, whose entire body was covered in blue Dragon Scales, asked.

Lux observed the DragonBorn, and almost choked when he appraised the blue armor that the latter was wearing.

This was the first time he had seen Legendary Armor and he almost started to drool after seeing the information that appeared in front of him.

The Half-Elf was gazing so intently at the DragonBorn Captain, which made the Dragons, including the DragonBorn Captain, look at Lux in a weird manner.

"Are you deaf, Half-Elf?" the Dragon Born Captain shouted. "Answer my question!"

The loud shout broke Lux out of his daze and he remembered that he was in a very delicate situation.

"My name is Lux Von Kaizer, and I was brought here by this token," Lux replied as he showed the Dragon Token in his hand to the DragonBorn Captain, who seemed to be the one in command of the dozens of Dragons, and DragonBorns, who currently encircled him.

The Captain frowned as he approached Lux and snatched the Dragon Token in his hand to give it a better look. However, after he saw the runes embedded on its surface, as well as the faint imprint left in it, the DragonBorn Captain almost dropped the token in his hand.

"I-Impossible!" the DragonBorn Captain gasped as he scrutinized the Dragon Token in his hand. After taking a second look and confirming that he wasn't seeing wrongly, the DragonBorn Captain signaled his guards to come closer.

"Take this suspicious person to the barracks, while I go to the Palace," the DragonBorn Captain ordered before glaring at Lux. "If I find out that you stole this thing, I will make sure that you will rot in our prison, Half-Elf. Men, take him away!"

At first, Lux wanted to resist but after realizing that the dozens of DragonBorns surrounding him were all Rankers, all attempts of resistance vanished without a trace.

Eiko, who was perched on top of Lux's head, glared at the DragonBorns as they tied up her Papa.

The DragonBorns ignored her because, in their eyes, a lowly Slime wasn't a threat. Because of this, Eiko wasn't separated from the Half-Elf and both of them were taken to the barracks, located inside the city, to await the Dragon Born Captain's return to decide their fate.

Dragon King's Royal Palace…

The King of all Dragons, who had taken a humanoid form, sat on his golden throne, as he listened to the report of the Captain of the Guards that he had stationed near the Temple.

"Where is this Half-Elf?" the Dragon King asked with an amused expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, he is currently being detained in the Barracks," the Guard Captain reported. "Should we imprison him for stealing His Majesty's Token, or should we execute him right away?"

The Dragon King glanced at the Dragon Token in his hand and flipped it over, and over again, as if wondering what orders he should give the Guard Captain.

The token was the personal insignia of the Dragon King, and it was the emblem he created after succeeding the throne from the previous Dragon King.

'Keoza, even now you refuse to show yourself in front of me,' The Dragon King held the token firmly in his hand as if willing the Crystal Dragon, to explain why he made such a decision.

Several minutes of silence passed, as the Dragon King pondered what to do with the Half-Elf that had inherited Keoza's will.

He already expected that the one that was bestowed the Dragon Token would appear sooner or later, so he sent a special unit to watch over the Temple's location.

The Dragon King had given them strict orders not to kill whoever appeared in the temple, regardless of their race, and capture them alive.

The Guard Captain remained kneeling on the ground as he waited for the Dragon King's orders. For them, being in the presence of the Dragon King was an honor, so he didn't mind waiting, until the Half-Elf's fate was decided.

"Cethus, come," the Dragon King ordered.

Immediately, a DragonBorn with black scales covering his entire body appeared and knelt before him.

"Return this token to the Half-Elf, and take him to the Outer Reaches. He is here to build a Guild Headquarters, so let him do as he wishes," the Dragon King said. "From now on, your job is to supervise him. Do not interfere with what he does, and simply report it to me. However, if he does anything suspicious, you are free to apprehend him, and punish him in any way that you please. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Cethus replied. "I will not let you down!"

The Guard Captain who was kneeling behind Cetus was surprised that the Dragon King had assigned the most notorious member of the Royal Guard to supervise the Half-Elf in their custody.

The Guard Captain almost pitied the Half-Elf because Cethus was like a ticking time bomb. If not for the fact that Cethus' grandmother had faithfully served the Dragon King when he was still fighting for the right of succession, the arrogant troublemaker would have long been kicked out of Arshvar Draconis, and banished to the mortal lands forever.

'Although you made your choice, that doesn't mean that I will agree with it,' the Dragon King said telepathically to the Dragon Token before tossing it towards the black-scaled DragonBorn, who caught it with one hand. 'Unless he earns the right to stand in my presence, he will forever stay in the Outer Reaches. Let's see if Fate smiles favorably upon him.'

Cethus bowed to the Dragon King and left the throne room alongside the Guard Captain who had ordered Lux's detainment.

However, before the two DragonBorns exited the throne room, Keoza's faint voice reached the Dragon King's ears.

'He doesn't need your acceptance. In time, you will understand that as well.'

After giving those parting words, the gates of the throne room closed, leaving the Dragon King with a solemn expression, which had not appeared on his face for the last several hundred years.
