Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-506

"He doesn't work for me." Gabriel lazily answered. "Though you can say that we do know each other a bit. Do you have any enmity with him?"

Raphael frowned, but didn't answer. He chose to believe Gabriel's words.

Even though he didn't say anything, Gabriel had a feeling that there was some unexplainable past between Raphael and the reaper. From what he could guess, it was something related to the Undead Realm.

However, no matter what, he chose to not interfere between the two.

"I'll leave it to you two to solve the mess between you. However, if you do need some help, you can always tell me. Now let me sleep... I feel like I'll die if I don't get enough rest."

With Raphael's presence in this place, Gabriel felt pretty safe. With how the world was changed, there was currently no one in this world who could trouble him here.

"If you're that sleepy, shouldn't you sleep in your castle?"

Just as Gabriel closed his eyes, he heard another voice. Alion also arrived in the forest.

Even though he had been waiting to join the battle with Gabriel, he didn't. He followed the instructions of Gabriel and stayed where he was supposed to be. However, now that the battle was over, he couldn't wait anymore.

Jia could also be seen accompanying him. "The rumors about you weren't wrong. To think that you ended the battle so soon."

Raphael stepped between Alion and Gabriel. He hadn't seen the two before but he could feel that these two were slightly dangerous.

Alion could only smile in response. "Don't worry. I don't have a death wish to even think about hurting him."

"I don't want to die either." Jia also chimed in. She had just seen what Gabriel was capable of. No matter what, she had promised herself that she was never going to stand against him.

Gabriel was someone who had achieved impossible feats one after another. She still couldn't believe that he had turned this place into a Domain.

"Since you two have so much time to talk, help me with one thing." Gabriel opened his sleepy eyes, glancing at Alion. "Take care of all the aftermath."

"I understand what you mean." Alion nodded. Suddenly, all the mages in this World were gone. Moreover, all the elements had weakened to the extent that they weren't a threat to him at all. But still, the people of this world were probably still scared about the sudden changes.

Alion knew he had to take care of this mess so the next few weeks could be peaceful and everyone understood that the world had changed owners.

He placed his hand on Jia's head. "Let's go, little crazy one. We have lots of work to do."

"Hmph." Jia slapped Alion's hands away. "You're the only crazy one here."

****

For the next two days, information spread about what happened on the battlefield at a rapid pace. However, to make sure that there were no unexpected situations, Alion and Jia kept an oversight on everything.

Thanks to the efforts of the Temple of Time and the Churches, all the people in this world considered Gabriel to be a demon reincarnated. It wasn't easy to make them change their opinions so fast.

Early morning on the third day, Gabriel finally opened his eyes, waking up from his two day long slumber.

He felt so refreshed, as if he had recovered completely. There was still a wound mark on his chest that he had received from the Nether Sword. Fortunately, there was nothing that could affect him adversely.

As Gabriel woke up, he found that Raphael was still sitting next to him, with his back resting against a tree trunk.

Raphael had been keeping watch over Gabriel, making sure that he was safe and secure throughout his time of rest.

Gabriel sat up and stretched, feeling his strength returning. "Did something happen while I was asleep?"

Raphael shook his head in response. "Nothing worth mentioning."

Gabriel didn't react much. He knew that the chances of another true god coming to this domain were almost negligible. Thanks to the changed world laws, the true gods were much weaker in this domain. They wouldn't have taken the risk of coming here ever since he completed refining this world.

"We're going back. It's time I free the rest." Gabriel raised his hand, opening a spatial portal before him.

His eyes revealed a look of anticipation and expectation about what he had to do next. He was going to finally free his army that had supported him in his last life.

Since he was mostly alone in his last life, other than Alion, his undead soldiers were the closest he had to his family, just like Raphael was currently. Moreover, he was also somewhat interested in seeing his sister.

Even though he knew that his sister was not the same person she used to be in the past, without a single shred of her memories, it was still a strange feeling to finally have another family member in this world.

Gabriel entered the spatial portal before him. Raphael also walked behind him, passing through the portal.

In another place, near the center of the City, another portal opened up. Two people stepped out of the portal. Gabriel looked more or less like an ordinary mortal with not even a single shred of his aura leaking.

On the other hand, Raphael also didn't look like an undead. Even though his face was slightly pale, after seeing the members of the Temple of Time, no one looked at pale faces suspiciously.

In any case, there weren't many people outside. In the last two days, the world had more or less come to a halt as people were yet to come to terms with what had happened!

Uncaring about his surroundings, Gabriel only gazed at the beautiful palace before him that was now standing where the Garden of Legacy used to be!

His castle alone looked more magnificent and dominating than the Royal Palace of Arecia!

Moreover, thanks to all the security mechanisms in this place, not many people could approach this place unless they had a death wish.

In his absence, Alion had been managing the workings of Arecia. Fortunately, he could lead Arecia's handling to Avilia who was now free and in the Royal Palace, taking care of the mess while Alion focused on other Empires.

"It feels like I was there just yesterday when this place used to be so different... In the blink of an eye, a thousand years have passed..." Gabriel muttered, still remembering that in the past, not a single person used to even dare settle in this area.

However, now there was a complete Empire around his castle!
