Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel



"This Maze... Is there no other way to get to the other end?" Karyk took calm steps, lost in his thoughts.

For the most part, he hadn't faced any danger. Even though he couldn't use any magic, he had managed to avoid most of the traps. 

Unfortunately, he had a bad feeling about this. He didn't know why, but there was an uncomfortable feeling deep within his heart. It was as if something bad was going to happen. 

That feeling made him extremely uncomfortable, especially since this feeling was similar to the feeling he felt a long time ago... It was the same feeling he felt the day he lost everything, including his parents and his sister. 

It was a similar feeling to what he felt the day his entire world was destroyed in the flames of war. 

Karyk clutched his chest with a firm grip. As more time passed, this feeling became even worse. He didn't even know why, but there were tears trickling down his eyes. 

He had forgotten how long it had been since he last cried, but today, he was crying and he didn't even know why. Since he couldn't use any magic, it was as if he was back in time to time he lived with his family, unable to use magic at all. 

After that day, he had become another person entirely. His grief and regret had changed him. However, that same feeling of regret was once again engulfing him again. 

He couldn't help but look back. His back was covered in sweat, never feeling this week before. Unfortunately, there was no path behind him. 

Even if he wanted to, he couldn't go back where he came from. The portal was closed and he couldn't open it as long as he was in the maze. 

Even if the portal was still open, he had lost himself in the maze. Going back was just as hard as finding the exit of the maze. 

"Does it have something to do with Gabriel? But he is strong enough to take care of problems. He also has the army... Am I worrying too much?'

Karyk briefly paused, standing in the same place for quite some time. However, after some time, he started ignoring that feeling. 

No matter what it was, he couldn't change anything. The only way for him to change the future was for him to get out of this maze and get the strength that he needed, so that no one was going to be able to take anything from him ever again!

He didn't want to be the same old weak Prince who watched himself lose everything! After a long time, he finally had a family! He had people who he truly could call friends. He wasn't alone anymore. 

After losing everything in the past, he had lost his sense of fear or compassion. However, now he finally had something to lose again, and he didn't want to lose it! He could sacrifice the entire world, but not the people he cared about. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ _Fire

Karyk clenched his fists tight as he started running. Even if he was lost in the maze, he did his best to find a way out soon, no matter how long it took!

Fortunately, he had noticed something. There were some paths where there were more traps while there were others which had comparatively lower traps. 

He intentionally went on the paths with higher traps since it made him feel as if those were the right paths. 

However, as he went further, he couldn't remain unharmed. The traps were starting to go beyond his limits. 

Metallic arrow shot out of nowhere, flying at the speed of light. Even as Karyk tried to dodge at his best, the arrow still stuck deep in his left shoulder, passing through his bones, leaving a small hole in his shoulder. 

Karyk held his bleeding shoulder, as he stepped back a few steps, taking a deep breath. 

He ripped the sleeves off his robe and used them to staunch the bleeding from his wounded shoulder. He couldn't access his spatial storage with its valuable medicinal herbs, so he made do with what he had.

After stopping the bleeding, he closed his eyes, taking a deep breath, before he rushed ahead once again. 

Even though the path was dangerous, he had to go through it! There was no way back!

He rushed through the path. However, this time, multiple arrows shot out of all directions. 

Karyk once again tried his best to avoid them, but he still failed a few times as an arrow stabbed his left wrist. At the same time, another arrow passed through, barely touching his cheeks, leaving a bleeding scar behind. 

Another arrow stabbed through his calf, but Karyk didn't stop. Even as his body was struggling because of his bleeding legs, he still kept running with the arrow still stuck to his calf. 

At the same time, he did his best to avoid as many arrows as he could. 

Fortunately, none of the arrows hit his vitals. When one was about to pass through his chest, he used his left hand to block the arrow, not caring about the pain. 

Fortunately, he managed to get to the end of the path, before slowing down. His body was so weak that he dropped to the ground, sitting with his back resting against the wall, taking out all the metallic arrows while also trying his cloth from his robe around his wounds to stop the bleeding to the best of his abilities. 

After resting barely for half an hour, Karyk stood up. He walked staggering, leaving a bloody trail behind him. 

"I can't slow down... I won't lose anyone this time... I'll gain the strength to bend the world to my will!" 

The bloody trail he left behind slowly disappeared, as if it was never there, as soon as Karyk left. All the bloody arrows also disappeared.

With his fists tightly clenched, Karyk went deeper into the maze, unaware as to what was waiting for him ahead…
