835 Chapter 835: Alone

There, standing amidst the sea of beast corpses, was a figure shrouded in darkness. The voice was deep and resonant, carrying a hint of sadness and nostalgia.

As Karyk's eyes adjusted to the dim light, he could make out the silhouette of a woman, her eyes glowing with a faint ethereal light.

"Who are you?" he asked, his curiosity piqued by the mention of the Celestial Dynasty. With this, he was convinced that this place definitely had something to do with the Celestial Dynasty.

The woman stepped forward, her graceful movements contrasting the dark surroundings, making it appear as if she was floating.

"You have entered our home. Shouldn't you answer who you are?" The woman asked. "How did you manage to get past him?"

"Him?" Karyk asked, thinking back to the puppet master. "I suppose you can say that he was kind enough to let me pass."

lightsnοvεl "It doesn't matter how you got here. It doesn't change the fact that no outsider is allowed here," the woman spoke, her voice carrying an ethereal power within.

Although she was surprised that there were still people who knew of this name, it didn't change the fact that Karyk didn't belong here. He was an outsider and all outsiders were their enemies, regardless of their identity.

"I-" Karyk tried to speak, but before he could even let a word out, he felt the presence of death getting stronger, some of the dead beasts opening their eyes, as if they had woken up from their eternal sleep.

Karyk looked at the woman in surprise, taken aback that she was able to control death as well. The person outside was able to control people with invisible threads, but this woman didn't use any threads.

She directly controlled the undead, something which he thought only he was able to achieve in the past.

Even he couldn't control the Undead Beasts here as there was something different about them. But this woman had no problem with this. She felt similar to him, yet different.

As Karyk observed her, he noticed a scary calmness surrounding her. It was as if she had spent all her life surrounded by death.

"It's been lonely, hadn't it?" Karyk asked as a melancholic smile appeared on his lips.

Looking at the woman, he was reminded of his own past. With the destruction of his world, he had also been accompanied only by the undead, a life that had taken a heavy toll on him. In the woman, he could see a shadow of his own past.

He doesn't know why she was surrounded by death or even had abilities like these, which should've been impossible for an Elzerian to possess.Googlᴇ search novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

Moreover, he was certain that she had lived for a really long time. The pain and sadness in her eyes couldn't be something gathered within just a few centuries.

"If I'm not wrong, you're not an Elzerian either? Is that why you hate all outsiders? Are Elzerians the cause of this downfall?" Karyk asked, understanding a lot of things by now.

He was really curious why no one had heard about this place, or why these people were living in hiding. But now he had a lot of his answers. The content of the book wasn't a story. Instead, it was the reality of this world.

However, that was only half the reality. Something had changed that reality, bringing the downfall of the Celestial Dynasty. And he was sure Elzerians had something to do with it. They were also the reason why all information about this place had completely disappeared.

Hearing Karyk mention Elzeria, the woman's eyes turned cold. Before Karyk could continue, he felt a heavy killing intent aimed at him.

The Undead Beasts around the woman stood up, showing their poisonous fangs. One of the beasts roared as he jumped at Karyk.

Outside the city, the General of Elzeria was fighting the hooded figure. However, he was clearly at a disadvantage. All the other men who were freed were already killed by now, leaving only the General and the Assassin who was hiding in the distance.

The General was covered in wounds, bleeding all over. Only the Assassin was unharmed, all because he was hiding in the distance, not even daring to get close.

In the end, the General realized that he couldn't win this battle. He understood that revenge was a distant dream when he couldn't even harm the hooded figure, who was like a ghost.

He attacked one last time, forcing the hooded figure to move back, avoiding the attack. But only when the hooded figure landed in the distance, he noticed that the General didn't continue the attack.

To his surprise, the General turned around, and started running away. The General knew that he couldn't survive if he stayed behind, especially since the others could join as well.

He had to leave this place and inform his Lord about everything! He had to tell the King!

The Hooded Figure was about to chase after the General, but before he could move, he heard a loud roar of a beast. His expressions turned dark as he looked towards the City.

By now, the General had also disappeared, leaving the plane, making it impossible to catch him. Instead of chasing after the General, the hooded figure ran towards the City.

As he reached near the city wall, the invisible threads came out of his body, sending him flying high. As he was high in the sky, he didn't forget to destroy Karyk's shadow that was keeping an eye on him.

He landed inside the city, only to hear a loud explosion. He noticed the ground break as a human figure was sent flying high in the sky.

Even from outside the city, the Assassin was able to see the figure who balanced himself high in the sky. It was Karyk.

"Who did he mess with now?" The Assassin scratched the back of his head.

He also wanted to escape from this place like the General. Unfortunately, he wasn't as strong as him and wasn't able to break free of this space to return. He remained hidden behind a tree.
