Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-715

Over a hundred Abyssal Beasts surrounded the Young Gods. And all of them appeared to be bloodthirsty.

"My Father, that's right! I've told my father where we are!" Taken aback by the actions of Caen where he was refusing to listen, Elysia couldn't control herself anymore. She didn't want to die here.

She could only use other methods to sway Caen.

She brought out the communication orb that she had used to send a message. It couldn't be used anymore, which gave ever more validity to her words, making it clear that it was used recently.

"Our parents will be here soon! You ask have time! Stop right now and we'll all forget what happened, returning to the way things used to be!" Fortunay also chimed in.

"I know we made mistakes, but we never meant any harm to you. You were our friend and you'll always be our friend! A gem won't change anything! We just thought that you already have many treasures so we should keep them for the time being."

"That's the only reason we didn't tell you! We didn't plan to harm you with it!"

Noticing the brief period of silence, Fortunay kept speaking. Honestly, they didn't tell their parents to come here, so he really didn't expect them to come here, but Caen didn't know that. He wanted to use this to at least survive.

Fortunay tried to explain himself, hoping Caen's anger began to subside. To make Caen realize that perhaps his friend had made a mistake, but it wasn't out of malice.

Unfortunately, he couldn't read Caen's thoughts and didn't know what he was thinking.

However, in the end, his words seemed to work as Caen lowered his sword.

The Families of these kids were his biggest support in the Realm of Gods, who supported him against his uncle. Even though he lost his faith in them, he still needed their support and couldn't lose it.

Even if he killed these people, he was sure that their families couldn't kill them. However, he also knew that the repercussions of his actions could potentially lead to further conflict within the realm, and he couldn't afford to jeopardize everything that he had worked hard to achieve.

It was like a cooperation for achieving mutual goals. However, just as Caen was having hesitation, he noticed the young God that he had already killed.

"We can destroy his body, and blame that man on earth for his death!" Fortunay understood the meaning behind Caen's gaze at the young God and even offered a solution. "Our families don't know that he was with us in this world. It would be easy. That way, we can also take the support of our families against earth!"

Caen pondered Fortunay's suggestion. It made sense. In the end, he let an Abyssal Beast grab the young god's body and return to the Abyss where the Beasts could eat that body to their heart's content, becoming stronger.

Even though Caen agreed to work with them and pretended to forgive them, his trust was forever gone. He even made up his mind that he was going to destroy these people when he didn't need them anymore after getting the Throne.

"You said you will find more. We will continue the search before your family gets here."

The Young Gods sighed in relief. It was as if they had survived a disaster. But they also had a worry. They hadn't told their families to come here, and they couldn't do that anymore. So they worried about what was going to happen when Caen found out the truth.

They thought about what excuses to give at that time. Until then, they could only slowly gain back his support through finding gems for him.

As the Young Gods hurriedly resumed their search for more Fragments of Heart of Eternity, Elysia and Fortunay exchanged uneasy glances.

They both knew that their future interactions with Caen would be different, and the trust they once shared would be hard to mend. Nevertheless, they understood the gravity of the situation and the necessity of cooperation.

All the Young Gods and Caen spread out, searching in a different direction. Unfortunately, after an hour all of them gathered together. They couldn't find any more Fragments. It was as if there were only three fragments in this world.

Caen didn't mind the fact that there weren't any more fragments here. It would've been surprising if all the Fragments were in the same world. But what surprised him was that the parents of his 'friends' were still not here.

He couldn't help but wonder if they had lied to him again. But just as he was about to speak, he felt a blizzard of godly energies rushing inside the world.

The sky split apart, and many godly figures appeared in the world.

Even the Young Gods were stunned to find them there. What was even more surprising was that in the group, it wasn't just their parents. There were too many gods in the group.

Seeing so many people, Caen couldn't help but wonder if these people came here in groups because they knew what had happened. Were they planning to attack and kill him here? Did the Young Gods tell them everything?

With that thought, Caen frowned. A Sword appeared in his hand again as he faced the Elder Gods in the Sky.

All the Gods landed on the ground, going down on one knee.

"Your Highness, we are so glad that we finally found you! So glad!" All the Gods appeared as if they had found a treasure that they were looking for a long time.

"Why do you look like you've been searching for me everywhere? Did my mother send you to find me?" Caen asked, feeling something off.

"The Queen...she..." The Gods looked at each other.

Seeing their long pause, Caen had a really bad feeling in his heart.

"Speak!" He commanded.

Finally, the Gods spoke, "The Queen is no more... She has been killed."

As soon as Caen heard their words, his grip lost all its strength. His sword dropped to the ground with a loud thud.
