The King Of Lux
Chapter 24 Forbidden Forest 1.

Lux looked at the elven woman with her extraordinary appearance, golden hair, the same bust as Fifian and the same beautiful facial features as Rose. But what made Lux unable to raise her eyebrows and mutter was the clothes she was wearing.

'Isn't it wearing it too open?' Lux muttered in his mind.

Meanwhile the elf woman who was observed by Lux said with a smile. "Ara. Don't look at me too long, sir. I'm afraid you might fall in love with me."

Lux who heard the elven woman's words replied calmly. "It is not impolite to say hello to others, but not to introduce yourself first?."

The Elf woman smiled. "Sufuku. Then forgive my disrespect. My name is Melinda and I'm the owner of this shop."

"Eh, Miss Melinda. Why did you come here? and those clothes?." Lit said while chortling.

"God. Even though I came here to attract the attention of Master Lux a little, it turns out that she was not even fascinated in the slightest" Melinda said as she approached Lux and smiled in front of her.

Lux who was looking at melinda's behavior lightly smiled and replied. "Miss Melinda is very pretty, so don't worry and she might be prettier if she wears a little more covered clothes."

Melinda who heard Lux's words slightly reddened then smiled.

"Fufufu, I'm very happy for Master Lux's praise. As for why I wear this kind of clothes, don't you like this kind of thing?. Like a rumor going around." Reply Melinda while holding her cheeks a little confused.

Lux who heard Melinda's words had a vein on her head.

'Who is actually spreading these false rumors. If I find him I'll make him battered until his mother won't recognize him.' Lux muttered in his mind, slightly angry.

Melinda who saw Lux's expression slightly smiled.

"Looks like that rumor can't be trusted, huh?. I'm sorry if it offended Mr. Lux." Said Melinda slightly bowing in the style of nobility.

"Ah, that's no problem. The one who spread the rumors, not you. So don't think about it." Reply Lux with a carefree smile.

"Sufuku. No. I don't think Mr. Lux is a very nice person. By the way what business is Mr Lux here?" Melinda.

"I'm here to buy some potions and some supplies." Reply Lux.

"So it's like that. Lit let me serve mister Lux, you'll be right back on the ground." Said Melinda while commanding Lit.

Lit who heard Melinda's words immediately nodded politely and went straight back downstairs.

"Master Lux, come here please." Melinda directs him to the equipment he wants.

Lux who saw some potions, armor, and runes, smiled in satisfaction.

"I want to take out the blood potion, mana potion, armor and some protection runes. How muchisit?" Ask Lux

"Sufuku. It's all free for Mr. Lux." Reply Melinda.

Lux who heard Melinda's words instead of being happy even frowned.

"What does Miss Melinda want?. Nothing is free in this world, miss."

"Ara. I was caught, yes. What I want is not much. I know you're a Brayen Horn student, Smith is famous in this world, so what I want when you make a weapon or some gear. I want you to sell it in my shop." Melinda said with a sweet smile.

While Lux who heard Melinda's remark slightly thought. 'hmm, it doesn't seem to be a problem.'

"alright. But I also want a book on basic Runes and Basic Alchemists. Do you have it?" Reply Lux.

Melinda who heard Lux's words was slightly surprised.

"Sufuku. It seems like mister Lux can never stop surprising me. All right, sign here first." Melinda.

Lux who heard Melinda's speech saw a paper containing a long-term cooperation contract. After Lux reads the contract, she signs the contract.

Melinda who saw Lux had signed her contract, smiled.

"Then safely cooperate." Said Melinda, pointing her hand.

"Welcome to work together." Lux.

After a while after Lux collects the goods, he also said goodbye to Melinda.

"Then Miss Melinda I'll go first." Lux.

Melinda who heard Lux's words smiled and said. "Does master Lux not require a storage ring to store all of the master's items?."

Lux who heard Melinda's words smiled.

"No need to have it here." Lux said, pointing out the ring hidden inside her t-shirt. After that Lux immediately stored his goods in the storage ring.

"Then I'll go first. Pleasure for me to meet Miss Melinda." Said Lux while looking down like a noble.

"Ara. Pleasure for me too, Mr. Lux." Reply Melinda looked down like a noble.

Lux is also out of Melinda's shop.

Meanwhile Lit who saw Lux's departure asked his boss Melinda. "Miss is it okay to cooperate with him?. He supports the third prince."

Melinda who heard Lit's words smiled.

"It's Lit investment. I believe he might be able to help me later. But what makes me confused is why Master Lux is not interested in me?. Am I less beautiful with his wives?." Melinda said disappointedly.

Lit who heard his boss's words let out a sigh of resignation. 'I hope what Miss Melinda said really happened.'

*Defined forest

It was seen that a man wearing black leather armor was fighting with a pack of black wolves. Seen there he easily killed the pack of wolves. After he killed all those wolves. He immediately cleaned his sword.

"Thank God Rose, Fifian and Benedeta allowed me last night to go to the forbidden forest." Lux said, it was he who had killed the wolf pack.

Lux looked at the horde of dead black wolves, saying. "DEVOUR."

All the black wolves that died on the ground were absorbed by Lux's hand. Luxpun sensed the mana continuously flowing in his core.

"If it continues like this I might be able to get to the stage where the orange core is." Lux said with a satisfied smile.

Lux immediately continued her hunt again. After running around the forbidden forest he finally found a fire gorilla. Tampa thought long Lux pulled out one of her techniques: a golden flame that flowed on her sword.

The fire gorilla who was aware of Lux's arrival shouted furiously. "Grooooo"

He also threw a punch at Lux. Lux who saw the gorilla punch easily avoided it. After dodging the fire gorilla, Lux instantly slashed his sword towards the neck of the fire gorilla. The head of the fire gorilla immediately fell and the fire gorilla died lifeless.

"It's just getting fun." Lux then used Devour to absorb the mana from the fire gorilla.

Suddenly Lux sensed that she was about to break through to the orange stage. He immediately meditated and used one of the special meditation techniques that have been collected from various meditation books. The various books were later diffused by AI Lux to form a meditation technique specific to Lux.

Lux uses meditation techniques in particular. Making a golden crow aura come out of Lux's body and start absorbing various energies around her. After a while, Lux's aura surged up and she stepped into the next stage.

"Haha. I finally managed to move on to the next stage. Now all I have to do is stabilize and get used to my meditative stage." Lux said with satisfaction.

When Lux was pleased with her achievement. Suddenly Lux heard two screams of a wild beast.

Lux who heard that immediately stood up and looked in the forbidden forest. Lux began to doubt whether she should go there or not?. He had gotten a warning not only from Brayen Horn, but Rose had also warned him not to go to the forbidden forest pedestal.

After a long period of conflict Lux finally went towards that voice.

'I'll just see it. After that I'll go.' Lux muttered in her mind, while running towards the voice.
