Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-572

Within an instant, the entire team sent by the Skyler Clan was wiped out, making them the top clan to be completely wiped out. And it was all because of one person.

Even the Shadow Mages that were brought by the other Clans were stunned. Gabriel only revealed his strength for a short time, but that was enough for them to know that he was stronger than them.

All the clans created some distance from Gabriel, being wary. The heirs of various clans moved in the back. Since Gabriel had killed everyone from the Skyler Clan, he only had one way to prevent this information from leaking and that was to kill everyone who was present here.

That's also what everyone thought, and was prepared to face.

However, to everyone's surprise, Gabriel didn't attack them. Instead, he turned around and started leaving. He felt that it was a pity to kill all those people so soon. Moreover, he had a feeling that he was being watched by something scary, even now.

He was in no mood to reveal all his tricks until he reached the core region of the Shadow Garden.

Watching Gabriel leave, everyone sighed in relief. They changed their direction, making sure that they weren't going to come across Gabriel when exploring the Shadow Garden.

There was only one person who still followed Gabriel. It was a woman who was carrying a heavy Sword on her back, yet her footsteps were light.

She was from the Northern Dragon Clan, the strongest family in the Northern World.

Unlike others, she didn't appear scared. If anything, she appeared to be even more intrigued about Gabriel. The man was the strongest youngster she had come across. Moreover, he gave her an incomprehensible feeling.

She was even more convinced that the strange feeling she was getting from him wasn't a coincidence.

As she continued to walk towards Gabriel, her eyes never left him even as she was just a few feet away. She followed quietly observing him from head to toe, analyzing every detail of his appearance.

"When will you stop following me?" After a long time, Gabriel finally asked, slowly down.

Even though he hadn't reacted previously, he had been clear that the girl was following him for quite some time.

Fortunately, she didn't have any Killing Intent which made him allow her to follow him.

"I'll stop following you when I find what I'm looking for," the girl replied with a determined look on her face.

Gabriel couldn't help but be intrigued by her persistence and curiosity. He decided to humor her and ask, "And what is it that you're looking for?"

"Answers," the woman replied. Her expressions didn't falter at all.

Gabriel was intrigued but also a bit hesitant, feeling as if whatever answer she was looking for had something to do with him.

"Answers to what?" he asked, still cautious.

The woman didn't reply. Even though she had many things she wanted to ask, she was more clear than anything that Gabriel wasn't going to answer if she directly asked, as the two of them were strangers for now.

Instead, she decided to observe him and try to decipher the truth herself.

"I know everything about the Shadow Garden. I can help you." The woman spoke after a brief pause.

"And why do you think I need your help?" Gabriel asked, frowning.

"If you didn't need someone's help, a strong person like you wouldn't be working with the Skyler Clan. I understand that the betrayal of the Stein Clan was false. You were using the Skyler Clan for their information, weren't you?"

As the woman spoke, Gabriel frowned even more. He was surprised that she had managed to guess as much.

"Now that you killed them, you don't have anyone to guide you."

"I can just take the others hostage, if I wanted to. Why would I need your help?" Gabriel rolled his eyes.

"Because the ones who are alive don't have that much information. If the information was so easy to attend, the Stein Clan would've already given you," the woman further spoke, stepping closer. "However, I'm different. I know quite a lot about this place, if not more than the Skyler Clan heir."

"And what are you looking for in return for helping me?" Gabriel frowned.

"A simple favor..."

"And that favor would be?" Gabriel didn't want to make any blank promises.

"I'll tell you when the time comes," the woman replied with a cryptic smile. "But for now, let's just say our interests align."

"If you don't tell me now, then I'm not making any promises. Even if you help me, I might disagree later if it's too much of a bother for me."

Gabriel shrugged. He did need a guide, for the most part. However, that didn't mean he was going to do anything.

The woman didn't react to his statement. Instead, she finally introduced herself.

"I'm Ezil."

"Gabriel." Gabriel walked behind her.

Even though the woman was strong, she was still very young. If anything, it was clear that even if all the clans in the Shadow Garden had joined to attack her, they would've lost easily.

Even Gabriel couldn't see the true depths of her. All he knew was the information that was in the documents he had received but that information was also missing a lot of things.

"Does the Northern Dragon Clan really have the Bloodline of the true dragons?" Following behind the girl, he inquired.

Just like this was an opportunity for Ezil, this was also an opportunity for him to know more. The Northern Dragon Clan was really close to the King of the Upper Realm. However, they couldn't be called subordinates of the King.

Gabriel wasn't trusting enough to reveal his secrets to the people that might become his enemies in the future. However, that didn't mean he couldn't ask for their secrets instead.

"What do you think?" Ezil asked in return as she kept walking deeper into the forest.

"Sounds like a rumor. It was said that true Dragons were the Ancient Mythical Beasts, comparable to true gods. However, you... Doesn't even seem to be close."
