Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-586

Everything that Gabriel heard here came out of nowhere. There were even more powerful people out to kill him? But that didn't make sense either. He had been roaming freely. If they wanted him dead, why didn't they find him yet?

Moreover, if this was all because of the skeleton he possessed, didn't that mean that Karyk didn't have to worry about that? In other words, each of them had a mess of their own.

There was another question in his mind. Was everything that the Beast Overlords said the truth? What if there were lies mixed in between? What if the entire story was twisted? He didn't blindly believe everything yet.

No matter what, he didn't want to be used as a puppet for others.

"So this Janus... He is the strongest person in the whole universe?" Gabriel asked, frowning.

Since even the Beast Overlords and that woman were scared of Janus, that meant his strength was beyond measure. He was the brother of Chaos after all.

While Gabriel was focusing on Janus, Karyk had a different question in his head.

The Beast Overlords said that Chaos and the Ancient God were trapped in a sword at the end of the war. No one knew where that sword was. If they knew, Janus would've already found that sword to free his brother.

Karyk couldn't help but remember his recent dream, where he saw a Sword floating in an unknown dark space. He couldn't help but wonder, if that was the sword!

But if that was really that sword, then why did he see that Sword? If it was because of Gabriel's skeleton, then only he should've seen that.

However, Karyk saw the same, which made him feel that it had nothing to do with the Skeleton. If anything, it had something to do with both of them. But what was that?

"Strongest? There's one more person... Possibly even stronger than Janus... Living on Earth where Chaos had reincarnated..." The Beast Monarch spoke. "According to the Empress, his name is... Ryder."

"Father, I had something to talk about..." A young man, in his early twenties, stepped inside a room.

"Uncle Janus is here as well?" The young man glanced at a white haired young boy, who looked like a young boy. However, he knew by now that the young boy was much older than the earth itself.

Janus smiled. "I just came to meet my nephew... If only that little brat was like you as well... I would've had nothing to worry about."

Next to the white haired boy called Janus, there was a man, who looked like he was in his late twenties.

Just looking at him, no one could've guessed that he was the father of the young man who had just entered the room. Even though the man had no trace of aura inside him, but his strength was something that even Janus couldn't compare to. He was called Ryder Flynn.

Despite possessing such strength, the man lived an ordinary life on the modern earth.

"You two talk. I'll be leaving. I have something else to handle..." Janus laughed, waving his hand. A void opened up before him.

"Are you going to find the young man who carries Chaos' aura?" Ryder glanced back at Janus, inquiring.

"Not yet. First, I need to take care of something else. I might've found some clues for my brother's Sword. I need to check if the clues are valid or not... After that..."

He entered the void, disappearing before he could even finish the sentence.

The void closed behind him.

"I think you should stay in the Beast Region for a little. Learn how to use the strength that you've inherited. That will definitely help you. It's much safer here..."

The Beast Overlords tried their best to keep Gabriel here. If anything, they were even willing to be Gabriel's teacher and teach him various things that could help him.

Unfortunately for them, Gabriel didn't appear interested. He didn't want to live his life in the forest, afraid of the unknown that he wasn't even sure about existed.

He only came here because he wanted to know about the history of that woman and his inheritance. However, now that he found out about such a complicated history, he felt it was only going to get worse if he stayed here.

In any case, he could always return here in the future.

He told the Beast Overlords that he wasn't going to stay there. He had other things to do as well. However, he wasn't in a hurry to leave either.

He still needed a safe place to go through the two books that he had received from the Shadow Garden. He wanted to understand everything he could, and if possible, become stronger.

A week passed. The Heads of all the Major Clans remained at the entrance of the Shadow Region. However, to everyone's surprise, even after all this time, no one else came out.

The only two people who came out were Gabriel and the girl from the Northern Dragon Clan. After that, it was completely silent.

Soon, one week's deadline hit and the Shadow Garden entrance finally closed on its own. The time was over.

All the youngsters were informed about the deadline, by which they were to leave. However, to the surprise of various clans, not a single youngster came out.

Something like this had never happened in the past. Even though none of the clans succeeded in the past, at least there were always a few people who had managed to come out. However, this time, there was not a single person.

All the Heads of the various clans couldn't help but look at each other, realizing that something was wrong. For some reason, they all doubted Gabriel, who was the first person to return.

Initially, they didn't think about this. But now, they were starting to wonder. Was it possible that Gabriel found the inheritance and killed everyone else with the help of that girl from the Northern Dragon Clan?
