Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel

Chapter 925: And who will kill me?

The Elzeiran Empress reached the Border City, accompanied by the Shadow Guards. She looked at the city that was surrounded by a domain that didn't belong to this world. Looking at the barrier, her expressions twisted. She was certain that this was a barrier created by Karyk. It confirmed her assumption that Karyk was actually in this city.

She had finally found his location. Now all that was left was to capture her and take him back, so she could receive the forgiveness of the suprbeings. "Break the barrier!" She commanded the Shadow Guards. One of the shadow guards raised his hand, making the sky turn dark. A bolt of lighting fell from the sky, targeting the barrier. It was an attack that was even strong enough to destroy the barrier of the Royal City, let alone this measly barrier. "Huh?" The lightning bolt reached the barrier, but before it could hit, the bolt itself disappeared, akin to being devoured by someone. "Are you not going to run anymore?" A voice echoed in the surroundings as a figure appeared atop the barrier. The dark sky made it hard to clearly see the person, but his figure was visible. It was clearly a man, but what was strange was that he had wings behind him. It was as if an angel of death had descended. The Elzeiran Empress felt a heavy killing intent descend upon her. It was as if she was tossed in the sea of suffering. Just a simple gaze by the man and she could feel his desire to kill her. It was hate like never before. It was only when the Leader of the Shadow Guards stepped before her that she felt srelief. "It looks like the SuprBeings refused to bless you. Is this why we are here?" The Leader of the Shadow Guards was certain about what happened. The Empress was supposed to have her strength increase by leaps and bounds once she entered the ancient temple. But she returned without any difference. It was clear that the suprbeings were upset. And her insistence on capturing the man was another reason that made him suspicious. The Leader of the Shadow Guards understood her intention. "That is correct. They blus for not being able to capture the Forgotten Prince. Only by capturing him can we return to their good grace," the Elzeiran Empress nodded. "The Forgotten Prince? Are you saying that he... Is this the one we had been looking for all this time?"

The Leader of the Shadow Guards was also stunned. They hated Karyk because he was a threat to them. But he didn't expect him to be the target of their thousands of years of search. If they could actually capture him, it was going to put an end to their thousands of years of mission in this lowly world. "If they want him, they will get him!" The Leader of the Shadow Guards stated, lightning cracking around his fist. As Karyk and Gabriel looked the same, the woman couldn't differentiate between the two. She didn't know that the person in front of her was not Karyk. Standing on the dshaped barrier, Gabriel looked at the Empress, his heart burning with anger. There was a twhen he was working with that woman. But this swoman killed Ezekiel, taking someone precious from him. Ezekiel only had a short life left. But even those short moments, he wasn't allowed to live. To stop her, he had given away his remaining life. For Gabriel, Ezekiel wasn't just a person. He was his teacher. He was his brother. He was his family. He was his savior. And this woman... She took his savior from him. With the Emperor's death, only one target remained for his hate. It was this woman who killed him with her own hands. "Young Man, if you surrender, we promise you that we will not kill you!"

"You can promise to not kill me, but can I promise to not kill her?" Gabriel spoke, his voice echoing through the entire realm. Unfortunately, Karyk couldn't hear his voice as he had already passed through the portal that returned him to the Central Realm. As soon as he stepped out of the Portal, he heard the sound from outside. The last the left, he had only kidnapped one Pirate from here. The rest of the Pirates were still left behind since he didn't have time. This time, however, he was able to sense the scent of death. He could hear the sound of battle coming from outside. No, it wasn't the sound of battle. It was the sound of one sided slaughter. Someone was killing the Pirates as they made their way towards the basement. He pushed open the door and stepped out of the room, noticing the last guard outside fall to the group, his body disintegrating. "So there you were..." On the other side of the hallway, Karyk saw a young man from earth. It was Ryder, who was in cooperation with them and Aliac. In a sense, he was the only Ancient God of this universe that was still alive.

It was the person who killed all the Guards here. But even after so much bloodshed, the man's clothes were still in pristine condition. It was as if he was a divine being walking amongst the mortals. "What are you doing there?" "You were taking so long to return, I thought I should check myself."

"I didn't need you to check. Did you think I was going to die?"

"Who knows? Maybe you might die soon."

"Oh? And how will I be dying?"

As the tense conversation continued, a sword materialized in Karyk's hands. The door in the back opened, interrupting the conversation. Aliac walked inside. "There are truly so many rats in my home."

"Huh, Karyk? So here you are!"

Unlike Ryder, Aliac appeared slightly pleased to see Karyk. "What took you so long? Since the Pirates were still alive, I thought something went wrong."
