Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Chapter 960: Just Humans

As Karyk opened the book, a blinding light erupted from its pages, filling the room with a radiant glow. The dark-robed man shielded his eyes, momentarily blinded by the sudden burst of light. As the light subsided, the man opened his eyes, his expressions dark and filled with rage. "I really hoped that you wouldn't choose this method. But since you have decided to take this path, then I would also fulfill my promise."

He looked at the place where Karyk was previously standing. But this time, Karyk was nowhere to be found.

"The moment you return, I will dig every memory in your mind. And after that, I will kill you in the most painful way possible."

He really cherished his time. That's why he wanted Karyk to hand over the book. But instead, the book was used. Until Karyk experienced everything that was left to experience in the Book, he could not return. And until he returned, the man could not learn the contents of the book. He could only wait for Karyk's return, and each passing second made him more angry. Still, he kept this to himself. He did not want others to know about this. Since that day onwards , the man did not leave the library. Even when the others came to check on him they found him sitting in the library, reading a book. "Since when did you start taking such interest in books?" One of them asked. "I was getting bored. Some of these books do keep me entertained."

"If you're bored, that's all the more reason for you to come with us. We are going out to hunt. It will be fun."

"I am not interested. You can have fun in my stead as well."

The man refused to leave this place. He did not want to miss Karyk when he was going to return. "As you wish."

The men did not insist any further. Just asking him once was already more than enough as they were not very close to this person. The group of youngsters left. ....

Outside the city, the Mother Whale had waited for Karyk. But she did not find him anywhere. After a long time, she thought that something might have happened to him. Even if he was strong in his original world, he had become weak here. So it wasn't shocking for him to die. Even she had barely survived being attacked by the wall. It was impossible for Karyk to survive after being devoured by the wall. Still, she waited for an entire day before giving up on hope. She was disappointed. She came this far to help Karyk, and he died before even entering the City. She could not blame him either, as she hadn't told him to be careful of the wall. If only she had been more cautious, this wouldn't have happened. Even if she blamed herself now, she couldn't change the past. She could only give up on hope of having revenge on the Children of Heaven. She left, intending to return to her child and forget that she ever tried something like this. As she was walking through the forest to return to the Ocean, she felt many powerful auras. She looked above. Through the gaps in the trees, she saw many powerful figures fly past her. Her pupils trembled, as she recognised these people. They were the Children of Heaven. She wondered where they were going, in such large numbers. The last time she saw something like that, they had come to the Ocean and killed her entire family! Once again, she saw them flying towards the ocean. Her face grew pale and she started praying that she was wrong. Even her family wasn't able to stop them last time. If they actually wanted to kill everyone in the Ocean, then it couldn't be stopped. Still, she wanted to save her son at any cost. Even if she had to sacrifice her life, she had to protect her family. She also started running towards the ocean. As soon as she reached the ocean, she jumped in the water. By now, the Children of Heaven had disappeared into the distant horizon. She could not even see them anymore. She quickly transformed into her real form, and went into the depths of water. She moved as fast as she possibly could, trying to reach her child before the Children of Heaven could. Fortunately, there were a lot of oceanic species in the way. If the Children of Heaven wanted to kill, those species could keep them busy and give her time. ....

Back in the library, the young man sat with a book in his hand. "Those short sighted bastards. They don't think about anything other than entertainment. Fools."

"At least I won't be annoyed by them for some time." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He shifted his attention back to the book in his hand as he continued waiting for Karyk. "I am very curious about what you are experiencing. But it is fine. The moment you return, I will find out everything."

....

"How long are you going to sleep?"

A kick landed on his back. It came with great force, making Karyk groan in pain as he woke up from his sleep. He found himself in the outer edge of the city. He could still see the Wall created by the Civilisation. But the City appeared much newer. He could even see a lot of people around him. The pain in his back was evident. He rubbed his back and looked at the person who had kicked him. "You are...?" He did not recognise the person. But one thing was confirmed. The people here were all humans. He was surprised to find out that the so-called Civilisation was no more than a group of humans. "Is this the past kept in the book?" he thought out loud. "You brat, what are you muttering?" While Karyk was lost in thought, the person who had kicked him, grabbed him by the hair. He raised him in the air. "If you don't want to die, don't mess up! Tomorrow is the Prince's birthday! If you mess up, I will kill you myself!"
