Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Chapter 963: Return

The Ruler of Ocean arrived with a few escorts of his own. Their strength was evident as all of these escorts had carried the heavy boxes that contained gifts. A single box, that they carried with a single hand, took over ten youngsters to pick up and put on the carriage. And there were tens of such craters. "Let's go. If we are lucky, we might get some benefits as well." The man next to Karyk patted his shoulder as he rushed forward to help carry the boxes. Karyk stepped forward as well. Since he was in this place, he could only play along. He helped the young man carry the box. "Huh? Is it just me or does the box feel lighter than the others made them appear?" The young man who accompanied Karyk revealed his surprise as their group managed to pick the box much more easily. "Could it be that they were putting on an act to make it look like it was hard work?" He thought, revealing a clever smile. He told the others in the groups to put on the same act. "Is this..." Karyk was more surprised than them. It wasn't because the box was lighter. Instead, he could feel that the reason these boxes became lighter was because of him. He was able to feel the same strength that he hadn't felt ever since he came to the world of Civilization. 'Is my power not sealed here because it's an illusion? Or is it because the thing that stopped me from using my powers hasn't been put to use in this illusion world of the past?'

He tried using his other abilities, and they also worked. His feet rose a few inches in the air, to the point that it would have been impossible for anyone to notice. He was able to confirm that he could use flight as well. It wasn't just his strength, but he could use the other abilities as well. 'It couldn't have come at a better time.'

He needed as much help as he could get to investigate the reality of this world. He could not do that if he was no different than an ordinary person in this world. Even if he wanted to observe the Archangels, he needed his skills. Until that point, he tried to keep his abilities hidden. He stopped using his strength, to not make it more evidence. "Huh?" The young man next to Karyk had been putting on an act to pick something heavy. However, when this thing actually became heavy, he almost dropped out. He barely managed to hold onto this box after putting all the strength he had. The others also had the same expression on their faces. It finally matched the other groups. They carried the box from the shallow water, and barely managed to put them on the carriage. If it was just one box, it would have been fine. But they all looked like they were in for the worst time of their lives. There were over a hundred boxes in the hands of the oceanic creatures that could not step on the land. The youngsters kept putting their bodies in stress as they moved to the shores and carried boxes back. One after another, the carriers were being filled. Karyk could easily put all these boxes on the carriage. The Ruler of the Ocean could also do the same. But the Ruler did not want to do such small things. Similarly, Karyk did not want to show his abilities. He also kept the act and kept making trips with the group. After what seemed like an eternity, the carriages were filled with the gifts. All the youngsters were sitting next to the carriages, covered in sweat. Fortunately, none was hurt. Karyk also sat there, accompanying the others in their moment of rest, especially since they were only given ten minutes to rest. This also made him come out of his high expectations. He had thought that the people in the Civilization were beings that were extremely powerful and comparable to Archangels. Unfortunately, the reality that he saw was quite disappointing. These people were no different than mortals from earth. They did not have any special abilities or strengths. They were weak. No, weak would be an understatement for them. He wasn't sure how the Civilisation was able to flourish with such weakness. They did not even have the technology that he had expected. What advanced technology? They were still using carriages to bring the gifts back to the City. Even the earth was more advanced with electric vehicles. But here, they still used carriages that were pulled by humans, not even animals. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

This place felt even more backward than medieval Empires. How could a place like this be remembered as the peak civilization in this world? And how could they make a wall like that? He had a lot of questions in his mind. He wanted to ask these questions, but he was cautious about his surroundings. 'It seems like I will need to make a trip to the Royal Palace to find these things.'

He closed his eyes, lost in thought. "Enough rest! We don't pay you to sleep! Ten minutes are over! Get up!" The old man yelled loudly, even though it was evident that not even five minutes had passed. The Ruler of the Ocean also looked somewhat impatient, as if he was in a hurry to meet the Emperor of Civilization. It was clear why the old man did not let anyone rest anymore. The youngsters had no choice but to stand up. The Ruler of Ocean and the others sat inside another specially crafted carriage. The group started moving back towards the city. "Don't you feel bad? You all are being treated like this?" Karyk asked the talkative young man next to him. "Is there a reason for this?"

"Treated like this? Stop pretending like you don't know. This is the life of people like us. We are not like the people in the inner area of the city. Of course this is all we can do."

The young man answered, his voice tinged with a little sadness that he quickly hid.
