《The Last Necromancer》The First Mission - Chapter 1

"Hmm, I see. Interesting."
At first Alexia El Pacio was surprised from the dark magic power that suddenly surrounded the young boy in front of him, but she quickly remained calm as if she already got used to seeing someone with huge magical power, after a slight smile, she said.
"It was indeed worth to use twenty magic stones to summon you. You're definitely not a weakling."
After clapping her fingers, she ordered to the maid Louise next to Argus who was still kneeling.
"Guide him to his room and explain him our situation."
"Yes, my lady."
The maid stood up and guided Noboru to a room not far away from the throne room.
"Here is your new room."
Indicating Argus to enter with her hand, he nodded and entered the room, it was spacious enough for a single person but there were only a bed and a desk, directing towards the bed, Argus sat on the bed while Louise sat on the chair next to the desk after closing the door and spoke.
"I'll explain the situation only once so listen to it well, my lady, the princess Alexia El Pacio is aiming for the demon lord's seat. Her aim is to kill the demon lord and subjugate the traitors who accused my lady's mother of betrayal and locked her inside the abyssal prison. Your goal is to gather a strong army in the next five years that can oppose the demon's lord's army. We'll provide you 2,000 gold coins as well as information of the demon's lord's army. We are also currently searching for any clues of the perpetrators who helped to imprison my lady's mother, we'll give you further details once we have more clues about it."
Listening to Louise's explanation, Noboru nodded his head while being in deep thought.
In the prologue of Alzedrius Online, Noboru completed the quests related to the demon world and know a lot of information about the demon world either it was the story of the princes and princess or the demon lord's army.
Alexia El Pacio actually died after being discovered by the second prince, Azurius of treason and had been subjugated by the demon lord's army during the early quests of the game. If Noboru correctly remembered the moment of her subjugation, it was at the end of the year 532.

"What year are we on the demon's calendar?"
"Today is the 20th day of the Lunar's month, year 530."
The Lunar's month was actually the month of January of the Earth which means that he had exactly 2 years to gather a strong army that could oppose the demon's lord's army. Recalling the strong demons' bosses that he encountered during his quests in the demon world, Argus was certainly confident enough to gather such a force.
"Are you sure that it was a good idea to tell me everything about the situation? Why should I join your faction instead of the demon's lord faction?"
If Argus decided to choose the easiest way to survive in this world, choosing the demon's lord faction was definitely a good choice.
"That's impossible for you to betray my lady, you should have noticed your own loyalty towards my lady the moment you meet her."
Louise answered with a confident tone, it was certainly true that he had that kind of feeling while meeting with Alexia El Pacio, he didn't notice it until now, but he truly wanted to help that girl to change her fate the moment he met her.
"You are right. It also seems more interesting that way."
"I'll give you more details of your first mission tomorrow, it's getting late. You should get some rest and get prepared for tomorrow."
Louise showed a magnificent bow before leaving the room.
"Open Status"
Feeling that there was not spying magic nor anyone to listen behind his room's door, Argus opened his status.
Name: Argus Fel Title: The Last Necromancer Level: 200 HP: 50'121 MP: 63'152 Strength: 1'529 Agility: 1'351 Vitality: 497 Stamina: 652 Intelligence: 3'271 Wisdom: 2'863 Physical Power: 3'058 Magical Power: 9'813 Magic Resistance Fire: 48% Water: 46% Earth: 41% Wind: 43% Holy Magic: 15% Black Magic: 64%
'My status is still the same, that's good.'
Noboru was actually afraid to lose all his levels and stats by crossing to this new world, but in the end, it was a needless thinking. He also opened his spatial inventory and check his equipment, he sighed in relief after knowing that each of his items was still stored inside the spatial inventory.

Finally relieved of losing neither his equipment nor his items, he finally decided to go to sleep since it has been a long day, it was already night's time and he was tired even before arriving to this world.
After locking the door with the magic spell [Lock].
[Lock] was a basic spell that could learn back in the game by an npc against ability points. Noboru learned all the utility spells, as well as other classes, spell he found useful.
Feeling tired from today's event, he directly directed towards his bed and started sleeping.
*****
On the next morning, he woke up early, the sun couldn't be seen yet from his window but Noboru was accustomed to waking up early and after realizing that he was still in the same room as yesterday still slightly surprised him.
"Yesterday's event was not a dream as expected..."
Noboru reorganized his thought and started thinking about his future plans.
"Right now, what the princess really need is manpower, without soldiers or general, there is no way she can oppose the demon's lord army."
The area where Alexia El Pacio's castle lived where in the western border of the demon world, it was a deserted plain with a dense forest 5 km away from the castle as well as the territory of the troll tribes further inside the forest.
"First, I need to gain the goblins tribes living near the castle as well as the troll tribes..."
While thinking about manpower he suddenly thought about his supports character back in the game.
"Can I still summon them?"
He tapped his spell page icon situated on the corner of his vision and searched for the [Summoning Support Character], his 3 supports characters could indeed be summoned.
Right now, he actually needed someone capable to command the future army he was going to gather, one of the supports characters, Felius was a high elf commander and the one he needed the most.
Anya was also a really good high elf mage, she was one of the strongest support characters that he had, but one could only summon one support character per month, and right now he needed Felius more than Anya.
"It's better to summon him once I'm outside, it will be hard to explain how Felius appeared in my room out of nowhere."
While having that thought, he suddenly heard a knock. Opening the door, Louise was standing in front of the door.
"Did you wait for me?"
"For 53 minutes and 30 seconds to be exact. A servant shouldn't make his master wait too long... Since I was afraid that you might get lost inside the castle, I came to guide you."
Noboru was slightly amazed once he heard the word "servant".
"I did accept to help the princess but I never agreed to be her servant thought?"
"My lady was the one who summoned you, it's should be oblivious that she's your new master for sure."
"…"
Noboru didn't want to argue with her anymore, he just sighed and asked her to guide him towards the throne room.
While walking towards the throne room, Louise explained to Noboru his first mission.
"In two weeks, a convoy from the royal palace is going to come to send the princess to defend the north-west border of the demon world, your first mission is to gather a small army and accompany the princess on her mission. Failing to gather an army strong enough to support the princess isn't an option."
Noboru nodded upon hearing Louise's explanation but stop walking and paused for a moment.
'Wait...Isn't the north-west border in a confrontation with the holy church?!'
Noboru remembered the holy church's camp at the north-west border and the large-scale war that happened back in the game.
The holy church defeated the demons defending the north-west border and captured Alexia El Pacio...
