Chapter 631 Welcome To Your New Home
“… Garret, tell me. Am I dreaming?”
“I had the same reaction the first time I saw it, Sarah. But, I can tell you right now that this is not a dream.”
Two golden words that said “Heaven’s Gate” were currently flashing in front of Sarah, her daughters, as well as their retainers.
Now that Garret was part of his Guild, Lux thought that adding his entire entourage wouldn’t make a difference. Also, this was the only way he could bring the former Great General of the Haca Dynasty, his family, and subordinates to their Guild Headquarters in the Outer Reaches of Karshvar Draconis.
“Wow! Eiko, your Papa is awesome!” Leah happily spun round and round while holding the Baby Slime in her hands.
“Un! Awesome!” Eiko giggled because she was having fun playing with Leah.
Alexa and Emily looked at Lux as if they were looking at a rare Monster that they were seeing for the first time in their lives.
Never in their wildest dreams had they thought that the Half-Elf, who had rescued them from the Capital City of the Haca Dynasty, would also be the Guildmaster of the Mythical Guild that had been the talk of the entire Dynasty for the past few months.
“I know that it’s a lot to take in, but what you’re seeing is real,” Lux said with a smile. “Everyone, please accept the invitation. That way, all of you can accompany me back to our Guild Headquarters.”
After being urged by Lux, everyone finally accepted his Guild Invitation and was surprised further by the rows of text that appeared in front of them.
“G-Guild Buffs?” Sarah exclaimed. “Free Stat Points?!”
Sarah was once part of a Mithril-Ranked Guild in the past, and even that Guild didn’t have the Guild Buffs that she had received from joining Heaven’s Gate.
She had heard rumors, however, that Adamantine-Ranked Guilds had Mana and Health Regeneration, but the Guild Buffs she was receiving now were way more than what the rumors she had heard of in the past.
“Lady Avyanna, we’ll be going now,” Lux bowed to the Orc Chieftain who had come to bid them farewell. “I hope that our Guild Teleportation Gate here in your city will be finished soon.”
“I hope for that as well, Lux,” Lady Avyanna replied. “As soon as we finish the construction of the Teleportation Gate, we will start the exchange we have agreed upon.”
Lux nodded. Right now, his Guild Headquarters was pretty barren. The floating island still needed a lot of renovations. The Half-Elf had asked the Orcs to help him build a small village at the base of the mountain.
He planned to slowly expand the number of his guild members and invite traders from the City of Pygmalion, as well as from the other parts of Karhsvar Draconis, to create shops on the floating island.
The Dragon King had decreed that the Half-Elf could only have the Mountain Range as his territory.
However, Keoza assured Lux that he could just take the entire island for himself.
When the Half-Elf asked the Crystal Dragon if this move of theirs would cause tension between him and the Dragon King, Keoza only told him that as long as he was there, the Dragon King would have no choice but to give the entire floating island to him.
What Lux didn’t know was that Keoza had a ruffian side to him. Truth be told, Keoza had full control of the Capital City of the Dragon Race, Rex Lapis.
If he wished for it, he could make the floating Islands fall from the sky, which was something that the Dragon King would never allow to happen. This fact made Keoza confident that he could use the strong arm method to make the entire island Lux’s property.
“We’ll be going now,” Lux gave the Orcs one last wave of farewell before teleporting directly to his Guild Headquarters, bringing his new members along with him.
Cethus had registered the Teleportation Gate in Lux’s headquarters in his Teleportation Crystal prior to their departure from the floating islands, so he was able to teleport back to it without any problem.
Lady Avyanna glanced at her son, Flamma, who was staring blankly at the place where Lux had disappeared to, and smiled.
“Go,” Lady Avyanna said softly as she gave her son a gentle push on the back. “Staying here in the Blackrock Clan will limit your growth. Go and see the world. It is a very big place filled with danger, but since you are my son, you are going to be fine.”
Barca patted his son’s shoulders with a smile. “You are never alone, my son. Our spirits will always be with you. The Spirit of the Blackrock Clan will guide your way.”
Flamma nodded his head with determination.
“I’m going, Father, Mother,” Flamma stated. “I’ll make sure to make the entire world know the name of the Blackrock Clan!”
“””Ahoo! Ahoo! Ahoo!”””
“””Ahoo! Ahoo! Ahoo!”””
“””Ahoo! Ahoo! Ahoo!”””
The Orcs all raised their hands up high and cheered their future Orc Chieftain, wishing him safe travels as he embarked on a journey to gain experience and see the world that was outside the boundaries of the Blackrock Clan.

Outer Reaches…
“He wasn’t joking when he said we were going to live in a castle…,” Emily muttered as she glanced at the castle made of white marble in front of her.
The majestic headquarters of Heaven’s Gate stood tall on the mountain range.
“Welcome to your new home,” Lux said using the Guild Chat function. “If ever anyone asks any of you what our Guild’s name is, tell them that it is Ars Goetia. This will be the Guild Name we will use for the time being until we become strong enough to protect ourselves from the world.”
Garret, his family, as well as their retainers, all nodded their heads in understanding. They didn’t need to be reminded twice about how important it was to keep Lux’s Guild a secret. Right now, everyone was desperately looking for any information regarding the Mythical Guild.
If this secret was discovered, they would also be implicated in the conflicts that would arise afterward.
Just as Lux was about to invite everyone to come inside their Guild Headquarters, the Teleportation Gate glowed briefly, and a Half-Orc walked out of it.
Flamma gave Lux a brief nod, and the Half-Elf returned it with a smile. No words needed to be spoken between them because they already understood why Flamma had appeared in his Guild Headquarters.
Cethus narrowed his eyes as he looked at the Half-Orc who walked up to Lux to chat with him. He understood why Flamma was here, and it made him feel an invisible pressure weighing down on his shoulders.
After a talk with Gerhart and knowing that Lux could only bring a fixed number of individuals with him inside the Sacred Dungeon, he realized that he could no longer delay the decision he had been thinking about since last night.
He might be prideful, but he also understood that pride alone was not enough to reach his goals.
With this thought in mind, the Dragon Born took a deep breath as he walked alongside the others to enter Lux Guild Headquarters.
A Guild Headquarters that would he would soon call his Second Home.
