Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-928

Karyk came through the portal and found himself under the water. Even as he was under water, he could feel how chaotic the sea was. It was truly like the end of this world had arrived. The beasts that often remained hidden in the depths of the Ocean had also started coming up. With the water covering all the Islands, drowning was the least of anyone's worries. Even on Pirate Island, many people who couldn't fly were devoured by the sea creatures. "I don't have time for you."

Karyk ignored the Sea Creatures. He didn't even attack them, not wanting to waste any strength or time. He dodged them and flew up. Even if he was under water, the Sea Creatures couldn't catch him. Before long, Karyk flew out of the sea, his clothes still soaking wet. After coming out of the ocean, he looked at the sky above, his expressions darkening. He had thought that the sea was bad. But the sky looked even worse. There were cracks in the sky. The ominous cracks in the sky kept spreading. And amidst those cracks, a void was being formed. The world was slowly getting destroyed and it wasn't because someone was targeting this world. Instead, it was simply due to the battle between two people. Hundreds of lightning bolts fell from the sky in the distance. A giant shield appeared, blocking the bolts. The battle was taking place millions of miles away, but the vision could be seen all over the realm. This was the extent of the battle. Aliac also dodged the sea creatures and flew out of the water, standing next to Karyk. "That... What did you do?"

"I don't think it's done by me. But I might have a hand in it." "You mean... Gabriel?" "He is fighting someone."

"In that case, shouldn't we go and help him?"

"He's my brother. Do you think he needs help?" Karyk smiled in response. Although it looked like both sides were on equal footing in the battle, Karyk knew Gabriel better. That boy hadn't even gotten serious. It looked more like he was trying to exhaust the other person. "Are you saying he can win? To me, it didn't look that easy."

"It's because he is not making it easy. It is intentional."

"Why is it intentional?" He didn't understand why Gabriel was doing that instead of quickly finishing the battle if he was capable. "It seems it's because he's still upset about Ezekiel. How Ezekiel was pushed to the end of his lifespan by Elzeirans, he's trying to do the same to the other side."

"That means that Woman must be there as well. In that case, things became a lot easier."

Ryder also passed through the portal and appeared in the depths of the sea. Unlike the two of them, he didn't avoid the Sea Creatures. He killed every sea creature that became an obstruction for him. He was the last person to fly out of the ocean. "This world will not last long at this rate," he said, looking at the battle in the distance. "Isn't that for the best?" Aliac asked. "If this world is destroyed, so will their armies."

"Because this world is now connected to ours. If this is destroyed, the impact will be felt in our world as well, unless you are able to close all the connecting portals."

"If we could close them, why would we worry about being invaded?" Aliac hadn't thought about it, but when he considered Ryder's words, it made sense for him. This world wasn't independent anymore. It was connected to their universe. If this world was destroyed, all the worlds that were connected through the portal were going to be destroyed as well. Excluding earth, most of the other planets were connected to Elzeira now, including the Central World of Upper Realm. ....

The Elzeiran Empress tried to look at the battle in the sky, but she could barely keep her eyes open. Most of her strength was spent trying to stand firm in her place. The battle above was in a realm that she never could have imagined. She didn't understand why Gabriel became so strong. She had seen him fight in the past, and he was even weaker than her. In fact, the first time she met him, she could kill him instantly if she wanted. She had even teased him about his weakness. Now, he looked completely different. He was fighting on an equal footing with the Leader of the Shadow Guards who was burning his life force. With every passing second, the Leader of Shadow Guards burned his life force, he grew older. His hair had already turned white, his face covered with wrinkles. Even though he wasn't wounded, but it was the same for Gabriel. And unlike him, Gabriel could fight for longer since he wasn't burning his life force. "How are you able to...!" The Leader of the Shadow Guards felt his strength leaving him as his life force neared the end. He thought he could finish this battle fast, but he had failed. Not only was Gabriel keeping up with his speed but he was also using the same strength. Instead of attacking, he was only focusing on defending, making him feel like he was getting toyed with. "You should end it fast. If this world is destroyed, our world will also be affected."

As Gabriel was enjoying the battle, he heard a voice. "You are back." He didn't even need to look at the person to know who it was. "In that case, I will end it now."

....

Gabriel didn't bother looking at Karyk, but the Elzeiran Empress wasn't the same. Things kept getting worse for her. Karyk was also here before they could even take out Gabriel. Karyk wasn't alone either. On one side, there was Aliac. And on the other side, there was the god she had seen on earth. She hadn't fought him. When she went on earth to catch Ezekiel, this man had just watched. But even then, she had felt that he was dangerous.
