Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-1025

"Your body is strong, but what about your mind? Can't you see that we are losing it? You can't contain so many memories... Your mind has started fragmenting."

"Does that have something to do with me talking to myself?" Karyk smiled. "I must say, I never expected to be scolded by myself."

"You haven't even started devouring the High Clans yet, but you are already like this. Would you not lose yourself if this keeps going on?"

"That's enough lecturing. I told you what I am going to do. As for me losing myself, that is impossible. I will make it so that even if I lose myself, some things will never be forgotten."

"As if you can control what's happening to us. Even if you have to devour people, do that in limit."

"Limit? I've never known where the limit lies. Most probably, we have already crossed the limits long ago. Our birth itself had crossed the limit with the destruction of the Civilization to bring us to life."

"We are not saints. Every step of our journey had been through the ocean of blood. From the moment we were born to now, our path had always been paved with the blood of the innocent."

Karyk stood up, not even realizing that his words had changed. He wasn't saying 'I' or 'me' anymore. Without even realizing, he had started calling himself as 'us' and 'we'.

"As we said before, it's too late to wash this blood off our hands. The bloodshed had become a part of us, and it shall be our part until we reach the final destination."

"And what is that final destination for us?"

"We will see when we reach there. For more, we only have one destination."

He raised his hand, already finished with absorbing the memories and abilities of the fairy he had devoured.

With just the slight movement of his finger, he was able to use the fairy magic and connect to the city of fairies to open a portal for returning.

"We are going there right now?"

"That is right. If we are already broken, then let's break ourselves more, until there's nothing to break... That will be the final destination"

A portal opened in front of Karyk that connected the place to the land of fairies. With precise control, Karyk didn't open a portal to the palace of fairy lords. Instead, he once again began from the edge of the fairy City.

He entered the portal, disappearing into the unknown spatial passage.

In another place, he stepped out of the portal. He had seen the city of fairies in the memories of the fairy he devoured, which allowed him to confirm that he was at the right place.

He had appeared in the city of fairies that was established atop a floating Island.

The reason it was so hard to enter the city of fairies was because this city was on the floating Island that constantly changed its location.

Without the help of a fairy, it was impossible to even find this city. The island was also surrounded by fairy magic that made it invisible.

Even if the Island was floating right above a city, no one could see it thanks to the fairy magic. Only a limited number of people had even seen this Island and they could be counted with the fingers on one hand.

"This is the place," Karyk said, looking back. He was standing at the edge of the floating Island. A single step back and he would have fallen off the Island.

"Who are you? How did you come here?"

He didn't expect to be welcomed so soon, but only a few seconds had passed before a few fairies appeared around him. They used the magic to restrict his movements, even trying to force him down to his knees.

Vines came from the ground that wrapped around Karyk's neck like shackles, trying to pull him down.

"That was a fast reaction time. We are impressed." He had attacked multiple cities but unless he showed himself, mostly it was impossible to find him. But the fairies managed to do it.

He wasn't sure if it was just their bad luck that they happened to be here or if they sensed the portal's opening and came to check.

The fairies were taken aback. They had used all they had but they weren't able to bring Karyk on his knees.

Instead, it was as if he was completely unaffected. He even had time to compliment them? Did this intruder not fear death?

"As a reward, we will grant you a quick death," Karyk said.

"Absurd! Who do you think you are to grant us... Huh?" The fairy had just started speaking, finding Karyk absurd. However, before she could finish her sentence, she felt something wet around his neck.

She placed her fingers on her neck, touching the wet liquid that had started appearing around her neck. Her expressions grew pale as she saw that it was her own blood.

She didn't even feel it as a scythe passed through her neck, taking her life. The others were also in a similar condition. All the fairies saw were shadows behind the other Fairies that were holding onto the scythes that had attacked them.

One after another, the fairies kept falling on the ground, their bodies slowly being devoured by Karyk's shadows. Within seconds, all the fairies were sent to the abyss, sending more memories to Karyk.

Each memory took slightly longer to absorb as these were the memories of the High Clan. However, Karyk didn't wait for those memories to be absorbed.

He was already here. He didn't want to waste a single second.

The Fairies didn't know that the shadow of death had fallen over their holy city. The god of death had descended into this city, being led by the memories of one of their own.

What followed was absolute annihilation. Every place Karyk went through, bodies dropped to the ground, taken in by his shadows.

There was no happiness or sadness on his face as he killed his way through the city. It was as if it was just a matter of fact.
