Cultivation Pet Shop

"Host's level is currently too low to hire another employee from another realm."

Lin Fan had a confused look as he said to the system in his mind, "What do you mean my level is too low?"

"The pet shop is currently at level 1 and only allows one employee to be hired. If the host wishes to hire another employee, please upgrade the shop first."

"Upgrade? What do I need to upgrade?" Lin Fan asked.

"The first upgrade requires 1000 points, does the host wish to upgrade?"

Over the past few days, Lin Fan had been earning quite a few points and saving them up, so 1000 points wasn't much for him, but it still meant spending a lot of his points. He had been browsing the store as well and saw many different things that he wanted, but if he spent his points upgrading the pet shop, he wouldn't be able to afford them. But then the system drove the nail into the coffin.

"If the host upgrades the shop to level 2, you will also unlock new features of the shop and the system."

Gritting his teeth, Lin Fan finally decided, "Upgrade the shop…"

With a "ding", his hard earned points disappeared in front of his eyes and he lost most of the points that he had saved during this time.

,m But what came next completely made up for it.

"The shop has been upgraded to level 2."

"The host has unlocked the egg incubating chamber."

"The host has unlocked cultivation realm farming."

"Various other facilities have been upgraded and given new functions."

Not only had he unlocked various new functions for his existing facilities, he had also gained many several new facilities, but that would have to wait until he was back in the shop.

For now, Lin Fan took out the employee contract for the Lich King.

The Lich King quickly read through the contract and then he signed it with his life energy seal.

He felt the same restriction that Angela had felt when she became an employee, but there was nothing else special about the process.

Once this was over, Lin Fan suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked the Lich King his name yet, "So mister Lich King, what do I call you?"

The Lich King thought it over before saying, "It's been so long since I've been called by my name that I've already forgotten it. You should be able to see what my name is on that contract."

Lin Fan looked down at the contract and he was instantly shocked by the name on it.

"Your…Your…Your name is Momonga? You're a lich and your name is Momonga?" Lin Fan said with a stutter.

"Momonga, yes that seems to be my name. It's been such a long time since I've heard that name. The last time I heard it was when I was roaming the land with my comrades." Momonga said in a sentimental voice.

Lin Fan couldn't help asking, "Could it be that the name your group had was Ainz Ooal Gown?"

Momonga looked at Lin Fan in surprise, "How did you know that? Have you heard of us?"

Lin Fan was thinking, "Bro, please, there's no otaku in the other world that doesn't know about you! You're the freaking Ruler of Death and Ainz Ooal Gown was a name that was feared across the land!"

But on the surface, he tried to stay calm as he said, "I've heard some stories."

Momonga said to himself in an emotional voice, "In the past, there wasn't anyone in the world who didn't know about our guild, but now we've faded into the annals of history. All my comrades are gone now and I'm the only one left."

Lin Fan asked, "What happened to your comrades?"

Momonga said, "In the past, we tried to take over an entire land, but before we could succeed, there was a group that gathered these powerful items that could change the world itself and cursed our group. It caused our comrades to slowly fall into a deep sleep and to this day, they haven't awakened yet. The only reason I didn't fall asleep was because they gathered all the powerful world changing items we had and gave them to me, granting me immunity to this curse, but I still haven't found a way to break the curse for them. In the end, we broke the first kingdom we took away from that land and created a separate realm with it, which created this necropolis."

Lin Fan hadn't read the ending to this particular novel yet, but he really didn't want to hear any more spoilers. For his own sake, he couldn't help asking, "Was the name of this kingdom the Re-Estize Kingdom?"

Momonga was surprised once again, "You really do know your history, I thought you only knew a few stories about us."

Lin Fan just said with a smile, "It was one of the stories I was told."

But under that smile, he couldn't help twisting inside, "I can't believe that this was how that novel ended! Shouldn't they have taken over the world since they were the most powerful things in it!"

Momonga saw that Lin Fan had things that he was hiding, but since they were going to be allies from now on, he didn't keep asking him about it. Instead, he moved over to Angela and said, "Do you really need to keep glaring at me like that? We're going to be allies from now on."

Angela just coldly glared at him as she said with a snort, "Like I would believe that an undead would be able to feel any loyalty. I'll be keeping my eyes on you and the day you betray us, I will be the one to crush you."

Momonga just spread his hands while shaking his head. But what he was secretly thinking was that there went his chance to ask this little girl to do some cosplay for him. He really wanted to see her dress up as one of those magical girls he had just watched.

After Lin Fan got over his heartbreak, he came back to his senses and opened up the system panel to see Momonga's status.

Name: Momonga

Race: Elder Lich

Title: Ruler of Death

Cultivation: ??? (System's authority is too low)

Skills: ??? (System's authority is too low)

Combat Strength: >150 (System's authority is too low)

Momonga was the ruler of a realm that was on par with the World of Elements, so that meant that he definitely wasn't weaker than Angela.

While Lin Fan was looking over Momonga's status, Momonga was also looking over the system interface that he was given since Angela was completely ignoring him.

He was shocked by this system since he couldn't tell just what kind of laws had created this thing, but he could feel the power of the laws coming from it.

Once they were done with that, Lin Fan asked Momonga, "Momonga, do you have any special ingredients here that I can have?"

Momonga thought about it before saying, "Well, you can probably tell that not much grows in this land of death, but there are some plants that do grow here. The only problem is that they are in the territory of the local rulers and we would have to start a war to get them."

Lin Fan couldn't help asking, "Aren't you the ruler? Can't you just make them pay tribute?"

Momonga said, "I've never interfered with the governing of this realm, so they won't listen to me. However, I do have some plants that do grow in my own territory, so you can have those."

Lin Fan still insisted since the system had given him a new mission. His new mission was to subjugate this entire realm and unite it under the Lich King.

Momonga also knew about this mission since it was also given to him, but he said, "While we do have experts, we can't just take care of those local rulers alone since they have large armies behind them. Even if Angela and I are strong, our powers are still limited. If you give me some time, I'll send out the word and gather up an army, then we can start our conquest."

Lin Fan knew that one individual couldn't fight an army alone, so he agreed with Momonga's suggestion.

Momonga then gave another suggestion, "You told me earlier that we'll be returning to your world soon, so for now, how about we just explore my territory? We'll be able to gather resources and you'll be able to train your pets like you want."

Lin Fan didn't see anything wrong with this, so he said, "Alright."

So for the next few days, Momonga led Lin Fan and Angela on a tour of his territory, collecting different ingredients and fighting different lower tier undead without intelligence, the kind that didn't know to run away when faced with Momonga's aura of death.

Once these few days passed, they went back to the Blue Star Planet.
