Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel



The Younger Generation might've underestimated him since they hadn't been born when the King was crushing all his opponents, painting the Upper Realm blood red. The younger generation didn't even believe most of those stories about the King's Achievements. 

However, the older Generation knew that most of those stories about the King were true. They had seen the true terror. If the Stein Family Head didn't have such a heart filled with anger, even he wouldn't have dared to stand against the King of the Upper Realm and his people. 

However, it was too late to step back. He had to find the legacy at any cost. That was the only way to regain their old glory! This was the dream that all previous Stein Family Heads shared. 

"There's someone really powerful in this place... I sense multiple auras..." Gabriel commented, looking down at the ground that was covered in dark mist. 

"Hmm?" The Family Head frowned. Even he hadn't sensed any auras yet. However, Gabriel was able to sense one? Moreover, he was the person who stood unphased against all his Elders. 

For him to say that the aura was powerful, it couldn't be a small thing. 

"It's not shocking. Maybe an Overlord Beast is nearby. However, they wouldn't attack us, unless we attacked the Beast Region," the Stein Family Head replied, before turning around. 

"You should rest. In half a day, we'll reach our destination. From there on, you might not have a chance to rest."

The middle aged man left, after telling Gabriel to leave as well. However, Gabriel didn't leave. He remained in his place, gazing down in the direction where the aura was coming from. 

That aura wasn't weak in the least. If anything, it was as strong as the auras of the Four Generals that he had felt in the banquet. 

Unfortunately, because of the mist, he couldn't see anything at all. 

He didn't know that on the ground, there was another person looking in his direction, with great interest. 

The person appeared like a human, but he wasn't quite. He was bare chested, carrying some traits of a lion. 

In fact, he also had fur all over his body. His fur was a golden brown, shimmering in the light, and his muscles rippled with every movement it made.

The creature let out a low growl as it caught sight of Gabriel. However, his eyes looked to be filled with great intrigue. 

Gabriel frowned, hearing the subtle noise. 

Despite his intimidating and fierce appearance, the beast didn't do anything. As if he had no intention of even getting up, being too lazy. 

Each of his movements was fluid and graceful, despite his bulky frame. His eyes were a piercing amber, and they seemed to be watching Gabriel closely.

He also had sharp claws and teeth, which he used to tear into the carcass of a recent kill. It seemed to relish the feast, letting out deep, rumbling laughter of satisfaction with each bite, as if he was a child enjoying delicacies. 

Despite his animalistic tendencies, however, there was a sense of intelligence in its eyes. He seemed to be aware of his surroundings. 

Gabriel was really curious about the beast that this aura belonged to. If possible, he wanted to go down and check. However, he knew that it would've been a bad idea if he created some misunderstanding that would've been hard to clear later on. 

In the end, he could only give up on his thoughts, and return to his room as well, but not before taking another glance down. 

As Gabriel left, the beast revealed a smile. His teeth were covered in blood as he was still eating. However, his smile was of great interest. 

"He's quite different... A person with the scent of an Ancestral Beast... How interesting..." 

The person glanced at the ship, as if memorizing it. After that, he returned all his focus to eating.

After half a day, the Ship of the Stein Clan reached near the Shadow Garden where multiple other ships were already present. 

Amongst the top ten clans, almost all were here. Other than that, there were also some weaker Families, who were here to try their luck to see if they could get the legacy. 

Many groups had gathered on the ground, with people they were comfortable with. Many clans had already allied as well. 

However, as soon as the Stein Family Ship reached there, all attention fell on them. There was not a single person who wasn't looking toward the ship. 

Many Major Clan Heads could also be seen laughing. 

"These idiots never give up. How foolish." One of the Clan Heads smirked. "They have become a laughing stock of the entire Northern World.

" If I was in their place, I would've destroyed this joke of a family myself, to prevent any further embarrassment!" Another Clan Head laughed. 

Laughters and mockery filled the air. Fortunately, it was limited to the top ten clans. The weaker clan didn't dare to do such a thing. No matter how weak the Stein Clan was, it was still technically the fourth strongest Family. 

Being small families, they didn't want to offend the Stein Clan even by accident. The Major Clans might not have to worry, but they weren't the same. 

While there was mockery everywhere, the ship of the Stein Clan landed. The members of the Stein Clan quietly stepped down from the ship and observed the environment, assessing their competition. They knew they had to be cautious if they wanted to obtain the legacy.

However, after hearing all the mockery, their expressions were naturally quite unnatural. Even Ulesis appeared angry. She wanted to shut the mouth of everyone here, but she kept her calm, knowing that it could only worsen the thing there. 

On the other hand, Gabriel saw one of the Family Heads subtly sending a signal to the maid behind them. It was the same maid who had approached him, telling him that the deal was final and he had to wait until they reached the Shadow Garden before he was supposed to change his position!
