Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

The only surviving General looked at Karyk in disbelief. With a single attack, Karyk had managed to kill the other Generals who should've been immortal.

Not only that, but he didn't appear to be exhausted at all. Instead, they were the ones who were struggling to recover their strength in this world.

He realized that he had fallen into a trap. Following Karyk was the biggest mistake of his life.

He knew he had to run! He had to leave this place if he didn't want to die! He didn't enter the portal as Karyk was standing before it.

With no other choice, he turned around to run away. He ran into the nearby forest, trying to take advantage so he could hide.

He ran as fast as he could inside the forest, his feet refusing to stop. As he ran, he kept looking back to see if he was being followed or not.

Unfortunately, his steps came to a halt suddenly. Right in front of him, he saw a young man, walking in his direction.

"H-how did you get here so fast?!" The General asked, his expressions growing pale. "And how did you change your clothes?"

The man before him frowned in response. "Who are you?"

"Do you know him, brother?" A voice came from behind the young man, revealing a girl in the distance who was eating a fruit, following the young man.

Gabriel stepped before her sister, hiding him from the man's view. Although he didn't recognise the man, but after looking into his eyes, he was certain that the man was an Elzeiran!

"What are you two doing here?" The General heard another voice coming from behind him.

He looked back, to be shocked even more. Behind him, Karyk was standing, his clothes still drained in blood.

The General looked back and forth between Gabriel and Karyk. There were two of them? He had no way to escape.

"Since I'm going to die today, I'll make sure you lose just as much!" He ran towards Zena, remembering that Gabriel had tried to hide her.

He knew he couldn't defeat Karyk but he could at least kill the girl.

The General rushed forward, putting his all in his speed. However, he had only traveled halfway when Gabriel appeared behind him.

The General felt someone grab his hair. He was abruptly pulled back, getting smashed on the ground.

The General tried to stand up, but he couldn't. Instead, a barrage of punches rained down on him, each blow stronger than the last.

His face was almost distorted, despite his high healing. It was as if Gabriel didn't care.

The moment he tried to harm his sister, Gabriel had decided to make him experience a pain worse than death! The more he healed, the more he was broken by Gabriel.

It was only after letting out his anger, Gabriel tossed the half unconscious man towards Karyk who cut him in two halves, killing him.

Karyk kept his sword back in his spatial storage. He used his magic to wipe the traces of blood from his body and changed his clothes to his usual princely attire. He didn't want Zena to see his bloody avatar.

"Little girl, how have you been doing?" Karyk appeared before Zena, patting her head lightly.

Zena had already learned that she had two brothers, both of whom looked identical. She didn't find it shocking to see Karyk. If anything, she was happy that her second brother was also here.

She hugged Karyk. "Welcome back, brother."

She didn't know where her second brother had gone. The only thing Gabriel told her was that Karyk had gone out on an adventure and it was unclear when he was going to return.

....

Gabriel led Karyk to the small camp they had created in the middle of the forest. There, he saw demigod Alion . The Holy Priestess of Summoning, Goddess of Nature, Nyx and the others were also there.

All of them greeted Karyk, expressing their happiness that he was back safely. Almost all of them wanted to know what Karyk found out in Elzeira that led him to return so soon. But none of them asked.

"Didn't I tell you to keep Zena safe in the Upper Realm? Why are you at a place like this?" Karyk asked Gabriel, gazing at the campfire in the distance where the rest of the group was sitting, giving them privacy.

"It's a long story," Gabriel answered.

"I have plenty of time," replied Karyk, not understanding why Gabriel had left the sake space of the Central World, and that too with Zena whose security was their top priority.

It was even worse since they were this close to the portal that led nearest to the Royal City of Elzeira. There could be no place more dangerous than this.

"Don't tell me you were planning to enter Elzeira with Zena and the others?" Karyk stated. He really hoped Gabriel wasn't trying to do something so stupid that could put Zena in danger.

"Even if I wanted to enter Elzeira, I would've done that alone and not with the others. Why would I bring them here if that was my plan?" Gabriel shook his head lightly, clarifying that it wasn't his intention.

"Then what were your intentions when you came to this place?" Karyk inquired. "Do you have any idea what would've happened if the Purebloods had entered from the portal? You would've lived, but what about Zena?"

"That portal connects to the space near the Royal Capital. It had the strongest guards of Elzeira around it at every moment."

"I know what happens when they come from the Portal. Because that's what happened..." Gabriel replied.

He further explained, "The Central World is filled with the Elzeirans who came out of the portal."

"The reason I left that place was precisely to keep Zena and the others safe. They appear to have made Aliac's Central World as their base for the time being," he added.

"They've already started entering this world? How can that be? I've never heard anything about it?" Karyk exclaimed, growing surprised.
