Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

The Four Generals didn't chase after Gabriel any longer, but it was only because they were busy with something else.

On the other hand, Gabriel continued his hunt, all around the Four Realms.

He was often seen by people, far away from his last sighting. And every time he appeared, he killed powerful people before leaving.

However, that didn't last long since there were some people who started recognizing the pattern amongst the people that were being hunted by him.

Most of the people who died in the recent few days had only one thing in common, and only few people knew that.

All of them were friends and they were said to come to the Upper Realm from one of the multiple Lower Realms.

The people who knew their past realized why Gabriel was hunting them. However, that also gave them a rough idea as to where Gabriel was going to appear next. They all knew that the next target was going to be the Goddess of Light.

Multiple traps were laid out, as people waited for his arrival.

However, Gabriel didn't arrive. It was as if he once again disappeared from the Upper Realm.

****

In another place, Gabriel had also realized that it was easy for people to guess his next few targets. However, he didn't do anything. He was already informed where the Goddess of Light was... To his surprise, she was in the General's Mansion where Karyk was.

He had already killed most of the traitors. Only two of them were still alive. One was the Goddess of Light, while the other was the God of Flames. .

The Goddess of Light was with Karyk while no one knew the whereabouts of the God of Flames, as if he had disappeared a thousand years ago, as soon as he came to the Upper Realm.

Even the Stein Clan wasn't able to gather any information about that person.

Gabriel bought a small house with the money he had gathered, and didn't leave for the time being, trying to master more of the Ancient Words.

However, even he didn't realize that there was an even bigger danger looming over his head.

In one of the mansions in the Northern Realm, there lived a middle aged man. Not many people knew that the man was someone who ruled over the Black Market in the Northern Realm.

His flaming red hair came down to his waist. His eyes were a beautiful shade of red as well. Usually whenever he left the house, he always used a mask to cover his face. However, at home, he didn't use any masks.

His face was clearly visible and so was the Elemental Mark of Flame on his shoulder.

He was the God of Flames. However, at the moment, his eyes looked somewhat crazed.

There was a strange devilish statue before him that he brought home. It was as if he was hypnotized by the statue, unable to take his eyes off.

Moreover, for some reason, he also noticed that the statue was making him stronger. His Elemental Control was getting stronger and his fire was changing.

As the sole ruler of flames, he could control all types of flames. However, his flames were slowly changing into something that he had never seen before.

His flames were the purest form of flames before. However, now they contained a much darker aura.

Most people would have found that aura devilish, but that wasn't the case for the God of Flames.

He didn't even realize how he was changing. The statue was able to control the mind of a god like him as well.

"Blood... Blood... Give blood..." He kept hearing the statue's voice in his head and he didn't find it strange for some reason. As if it was only natural.

The God of Flames listened to the statue like he was nothing more than a puppet. Every night, he left the Mansion and kidnapped hundreds of children before returning to the mansion, bathing the statue with their blood.

The more blood he gave the statue, the more his Elemental Control increased and the more his Elemental was corrupted.

However, the demand of the statue kept increasing only... It wasn't satisfied with a small amount of blood anymore... It wanted more! It wanted a lot more!

Also, the more blood the statue had, the more its eyes appeared alive, as if it was a living being that came from the depths of hell.

The God of Flames kept feeding it blood. However, the voices he heard only increased. At times, he even felt as if he was losing his mind, but for some reason, he couldn't resist the statue.

It was long a drug that became his addiction. An addiction that he didn't want to lose... An addiction that gave him strength beyond his wildest beliefs.

Initially, the statue could only ask for blood. However, with time, its mind was appearing to become more active.

It didn't just ask for blood, but it could also be heard cursing someone... And the name that the God of Flames often heard being cursed was only one... Janus.

The God of Flames was too far gone. His Elemental Mark of Flames became pitch black within a few days. However, at the same time, his control over his Element reached a hundred percent, almost granting him complete control over death, making him a true god that even the Goddess of Light and Karyk hadn't achieved yet.

Unfortunately, the God of Flames had lost something else in return. He had lost his free will, and he didn't realize it! He was like a maniac!

Within the next day, an entire city was slaughtered. Only blood could be seen on streets, all over the city! Not a single person was left alive in the gruesome incident.

Also, the blame for that incident also went to only one person... Karyk.

When Gabriel came out of his house the next day to buy some herbs that he needed, he heard a lot of people talking about Karyk and the incident where an entire city was slaughtered.

That made Gabriel frown as well.
