Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

"Someone is outside?"

"He is...?"

The Envoys from the Temple of Time, as well as the Holy Priests, all looked at the figure that had rushed out of the Garden of Legacy, flying high above their heads. While they couldn't even get close to the garden, the person came out straight from inside.

"Is he the one who opened this place?" Ozen wondered, looking up.

No matter who it was, he had to catch that person to get answers.

However, strangely enough, that person was covered in a shroud made entirely of Light! No one could even see the face of that person. The only thing that they could see was the Ancestral Staff of Light and the Holy Grimoire of Light that was floating before the person!

There were some traces of blood, as if a fierce battle took place not long ago.

"The Holy Priest of Light?" The Holy Lord of Flames came out of the rubble he was buried under, surprised to find the Holy Lord of Light.

Not many people knew that the Holy Lord of Light was also the same person that they called the Holy Lord of Darkness.

"What is he doing here? Didn't he go to the Lost City of Gods?" The Holy Priestess of Earth was also slightly surprised. It hadn't been long before the meeting of Saints where they were all informed about his absence. To think that he came out straight from the core of this chaos.

Fortunately, since Gabriel was shrouded in light, they didn't attack Gabriel directly before finding out the truth.

While everyone was confused and wanted to approach Gabriel, the earth started trembling!

Boom~

A loud explosion was heard! The explosive sound was heard all around the Empire! It was as if the explosion was strong enough to destroy an entire City!

A wave of fire rushed out of the Garden of Legacy, high in the sky as if it was caused by the explosion that took place inside the Garden of Legacy.

Gabriel moved back, barely avoiding the explosion that caught him by surprise. Despite moving fast, he could still be seen hurt through his movements.

The Envoys of Temple of Time frowned yet they didn't step forward. They were curious as to what the situation was. The explosive inside the garden of legacy was as if someone had attacked that place.

Gabriel flew about fifty meters back. Through the white shroud, no one could see him, but from his gestures, it looked as if he really was exhausted.

Gabriel looked in the direction of the other Holy Lords. He didn't say anything and shifted his focus back to the garden again,as if he was waiting for something.

The Holy Priestess of Earth flew up, standing next to the Holy Lord of Light.

"What's the situation?" She asked.

The other Holy Lords also caught up. Amongst all of them, only Avilia was looking at the Holy Lord of Light weirdly, as if she was wondering just what kind of act Gabriel was playing now!

Could it really be true that he wasn't behind the strange phenomenon in the garden? Or was he pretending for a specific reason? No matter what, she wasn't going to expose him.

The Envoys of the Temple of Time also flew up. "Did you open this place? What did you see inside?"

Unlike the Holy Lords, Gabriel could genuinely feel some killing intent from the Envoys of the Temple of Time.

"I didn't open it," Gabriel answered. "He did..."

"He?" Ozen looked in the direction Gabriel was looking. The Garden of Legacy was still covered in darkness. However, a heavy amount of killing intent rushed out from that place.

The killing intent was overbearing. It was as if the killing intent alone could kill many people, without anyone having to take any action.

Following the killing intent, another figure rushed out of the garden. The figure was surrounded by darkness. It was impossible to see if it was a man or a woman since the person had a long cloak to cover him.

The person faced the others, all alone. However, for now, there was no battle. It was as if both sides were observing the enemies.

"He's the one who opened it!" Gabriel explained. "I was passing through here when I felt a strange aura coming from this garden. When I came, this person was already here."

"I chased after him through the portal that he opened since I didn't feel comfortable letting him do as he pleased, only to find out that the other side was too dangerous to be left alive!"

"What do you mean? What is inside the garden?" The Holy Priestess of Summoning asked as her face twitched. She didn't know who the dark robed person was, but she didn't believe a single word of Gabriel.

"An army... An army that was still sealed but if they were freed, they could ravage the entire continent. The goal of that person was to free that army. And if I was late, he would've succeeded as well," Gabriel answered, sounding extremely righteous.

"I had to exhaust all my strength to destroy that place before rushing out!" he added. "Unfortunately, he still survived..."

"So that explosion... It was because if you attacking the other space?" Litvia from the Temple of Time asked.

She didn't know why, but she couldn't find any flaws in the story. She couldn't believe it either.

While everyone was still thinking about Gabriel's words, the dark figure in the distance spoke. "You destroyed everything! The goal that I've been working for a lifetime...all destroyed because of you! I will kill you all!"

At the same time, Gabriel flicked a finger without anyone noticing. His ring of Necromancy shone momentarily, unnoticed by others.

As if the ring was the key to the other space, the Darkness that was covering the Garden of Legacy slowly disappeared.

There was no portal there anymore! Instead, the entire garden appeared to have been destroyed. It was covered with chaotic spatial energy, as if the spatial channel that was in this place had collapsed completely.

The strange phenomenon also verified Gabriel's story that he had destroyed the other space, along with the words of the dark figure.

"You are not strong enough!" Gabriel exclaimed, proudly taking the lead. However, before attacking, he coughed out a mouthful of blood, as if he had been injured in the battle before. He couldn't just let others see that he was completely fine or that was going to leave flaws in his story.

Moreover, the real plan was still to come into play.
