Lux chose yes because he could tell that Leoric was serious about repaying his debt to him even if he said no.

Immediately, rows of text appeared in front of him, showing the newest member of his Covenant.

Title: Last King of Zangrila

—----------

'Sh*t…' Lux's eyes were glued on Leoric's information because the Wraith King's stats had gone past the Half-Elf's expectation.

He already had a feeling that the newest member of his Covenant was quite strong, seeing that he managed to disperse the Abyssal Dragon's Breath Attack when the latter protected him.

But he thought that he was only an Argonaut-Ranked Wraith King. He didn't expect that Leoric's Rank was actually a Dreadnaught-Ranked World Boss.

The Health Points of the newest member of his Covenant was unreal, which made him understand why more powerful monsters could only be fought by people of the same Rank as them.

This also made him remember why Dreadnaught-Ranked Monsters could easily demolish entire cities if no High-Rankers were present to defend them.

If he were to fight the Wraith King with his current strength, he would just be like a two-year-old trying to fight an adult with a toy hammer.

But, there was one more shocking revelation that the Wraith King shared with his new Master that almost blew his mind.

Leoric was actually a Saint in his past life!

The reason why his rank degraded so much was due to the fact that he used almost all of his strength to forcefully send his family members, as well as their retainers, to a place far away from Zangrila.

He had done this when he deemed that his kingdom could no longer be saved. At the time, he decided that it would be best to send his family far away from the conflict, allowing them to live on and continue their bloodline, despite losing their kingdom.

This massive undertaking drained him of his power, so when he died, his Rank degenerated to such an extent.

"Your Majesty, allow us to follow you as well."

The Twelve Royal Knights that served directly under King Leoric begged their King to allow them to fight by his side.

"Thank you, but none of you need to do this," Leoric replied. "I alone am enough. All of you have suffered enough and should enter the Cycle of Reincarnation to start your new lives."

"Your Majesty, we have sworn to protect you with our lives," one of the Knights stated. "We will break our oath of fealty if we pass on, leaving you behind."

"He's right, Your Majesty," another knight commented. "Since you decided to repay his Excellency, Sir Lux, we will also follow you until the end."

All the knights pleaded with Leoric to allow them to stay with him. While this was happening, Lux subtly used his Appraisal Ability to check how strong the knights were.

'Deimos-Ranked Wraith Knights!' Lux gasped internally after seeing how strong the Royal Wraith Knights were.

Truth be told, he wasn't expecting anything in return when he tried to help the residents of Zangrila to cross over to the next life.

Gaap also thought that Lux's move was quite wasteful because he turned down the opportunity of commanding millions of ghosts to fight for him.

Never did he think that the former King of Zangrila would pledge fealty to him, who was already a very strong World-Boss Monster.

In the end, Leoric reluctantly agreed to let his knights stay with him and repay Lux for everything he had done for their kingdom.

One Dreadnaught-Ranked World Boss and twelve Deimos-Ranked Wraith Knights.

This group was enough to conquer Wildgarde Stronghold, where Lux had grown up since he was a child.

Of course, he had no intention of doing so. But, it clearly showed that he now had a fighting force that could make him a true Overlord of a territory if he wished for it.

Some of the Wraith Soldiers that had survived the battle also asked Leoric to allow them to stay. However, the Wraith King firmly rejected their proposal.

The other Wraiths were only Rank 3 to Rank 4 Monsters and, if they joined him, the chances of them dying for real were high.

Although Lux could help them undergo rebirth, Leoric no longer wanted his countrymen to suffer, which was another reason why he decided to swear his loyalty to the red-headed teenager.

Two days later, Lux presided over the purification ceremony, allowing all of the remaining souls in Zangrila to break the shackles that bound them to the mortal world.

Leoric and his twelve knights had stayed close to Lux during the entire ceremony, just in case an Abyssal Monster suddenly appeared to try and mess things up.

Fortunately, no Abyssal Creatures appeared, allowing the ceremony to be conducted successfully.

Lux rested for another two days, and on the third day, he finally remembered the notification he received before he fell unconscious the first time.

'Heaven's Necromancer?' Lux thought as he read the information inside his Soul Book. 'Is there such a thing?'

The Half-Elf even had a cheeky grin plastered on his face as he started to read the information about his new profession.

But not long later, the grin on his face disappeared and was replaced with a gaping mouth out of shock and disbelief.

The more he read about his new profession, the more he realized that he had actually pioneered a new path for all Necromancers, which would soon show its might and take the world by storm.
