Disciple of the Lich: Or How I Was Cursed by the Gods and Dropped Into the Abyss! (Light Novel) Vol. 05

Leaving the Garden of Dragons behind for Ploroque, Kanata and the gang run into an item crafter: Mel. Her store is stocked with ingenious inventions, so why is it on the brink of bankruptcy? Greed, the company CEO holding the strings of the city, seems to be responsible—but perhaps the shady underbelly of Ploroque is to blame? It's a race against the clock to clear Mel's name and stay one step ahead of the higher beings!
