Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

985 Chapter 985: Part of him

Karyk's consciousness floated in the void.

At this moment, the abyss was not merely a place. It was a realm beyond the restraints of physical form, space, and time. Thoughts, memories, and emotion... everything was restrained within this abyss.

For what felt like an eternity, Karyk drifted through the abyss with no destination. He couldn't even feel any emotions in this state. It was as if everything in this universe was insignificant.

He didn't know how long he was in a state like this. Was it an hour? A day? A year? Or centuries? He wasn't sure. All he felt was that he was slowly starting to lose himself in the passage of time.

The life he lived before, felt like a small insignificant drop before the abyss and its vastness. He tried to protect his sanity, but it was proving to be harder than he thought.

His consciousness felt tired and extremely sleepy again. But this time, he tried to resist the drowsiness as much as possible. He didn't know why, but he felt that he might never return if he fell asleep.

He didn't know why he was in this situation. Was this because of the book that sent him to the past? How could a book do something like that? Abyss was something that was beyond comprehension.

Even Chaos hadn't managed to understand the abyss. It was impossible to do something like this. He was certain this had nothing to do with the book. It was something else entirely.

For a moment, he even wondered if something had gone wrong when he was returning to his time after witnessing the last.

Was it because of that, he ended up in the abyss? But even if that was the case, how was he the abyss instead of simply being dead?

"I call forth the Divine Will!"

While Karyk felt like he was losing himself, he heard a weak voice echoing through the abyss. The voice also appeared to be addressing him!

What surprised Karyk the most was that this voice belonged to the King! These were the same words that the King had spoken when he placed his son on the altar.

"Why is he repeating those words again?"

Karyk was confused, but his confusion only increased with time as the King continued speaking.

He heard the chants that the King had spoken next. Previously, he didn't understand a single word of what the King was saying. But now, every single word was understood by him.

He didn't understand how it was happening. The King was still speaking the same language and he still couldn't understand the language. But he was still able to understand the meaning.

"To the great heaven that was betrayed... To the divine will that was buried... Today, your faithful servant has arrived to ask for mercy!"

"To the one that is inevitable... I, a mere King, sacrifice the most precious thing to me! In exchange, please grant us mercy!"

At first, Karyk was only able to hear the words. But with time, he was also able to see the King through the void.

With trembling hands, the King raises the ancient sword towards heaven, willing to strike his own son. The blade shone under the red sunlight, casting a shadow over the young prince.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"To the Divine Will, I sacrifice my son! Please descend and grace our world with your blessed presence!" The King roared at the top of his lungs while his sword came crashing down.

Karyk did not understand what was happening. Why did it appear like the sacrifice was directed towards him? Why did it feel like the King was killing his son for him?

As the King was about to strike the young prince, a person appeared and pulled the Prince away. As for the person, it looked much different from him.

Seeing the person's actions, Karyk was certain that this was not him! This was the real author of the book and the thief from this era. So what he saw was really the

past?

He hadn't changed the past. It was exactly how the past was supposed to take place. He thought he was changing history by snatching the Prince away from the King. He thought he was doing it out of his free will, but he was just replaying the history as it took place.

Next, everything took place as he had seen. The Angels arrived and tried to stop the King. But the King fought to stop them.

The decision once again came to the thief.

The thief didn't ask for the method to be freed from the formation. He didn't even consider a deal and tried to leave with the Prince to save him.

Only when the Prince requested him to kill him, the thief stopped unwillingly. After a lot of internal conflict, the thief refused the Prince's demand and tried to forcefully

take him away.

Unfortunately for him, the Prince was also stubborn. Despite being weak, he resisted and fell on the ground. He crawled towards the altar.

In the end, the thief also couldn't do anything but listen. Although he didn't want to kill the Prince, he carried him to the altar.

Most of the past that Karyk experienced was the same as how it happened in reality.

But a few things were different because of his actions.

The past hadn't changed, but what Karyk experienced changed a little. The Angels hadn't told the method to be free of the restriction to the thief as he didn't ask for a

deal.

Karyk asked for a deal and not the method in exchange.

Similarly, Karyk intentionally went after the Prince to get close to him, but it was truly an accident for the thief to come across the Prince and get close to him.

Hence, he was more attached to the child. His interaction with the Prince was completely natural. Unfortunately, it was all for nothing as the Angel attacked the altar to stop the thief and Prince.

The outcome was the same as what Karyk experienced... A bloody spike stabbing the chest of the Prince.

Karyk was shocked, as he felt a connection to the spike. It was a part of him... That blood... That altar, it was all a part of him!
