Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage
chapter-950

Karyk and the Mother Whale had formed an unlikely alliance. "What do you need from me?" The Mother Whale asked Karyk. Karyk replied, "I need a method to free myself from this world's restrictions. I need something that could at least allow me to use my abilities."

Although he told her what he needed, he did not expect her to know an answer. It was all just a step to later convince her to take him to the City. However, to his surprise, the woman's answer wasn't what he expected. "Something that can free you from the restrictions... I think I know what that could be."

"You know?" he asked. "If I'm thinking right, then it must be that." The Mother Whale nodded. "It's because of that Civilization."

"Are you talking about the so-called Children of Heaven?" Karyk inquired. The woman shook her head. "I am not talking about them. They are strong, but even they couldn't do something like that."

She knew what kind of existence Karyk had fought, just from that essence. Even the Children of Heaven shouldn't have been able to stop his abilities to this extent if he could fight an existence much more threatening and survive. If it wasn't the Children of Heaven, she could only think of one thing... The Civilisation. "Is there another Civilization in this world?" Karyk asked. He knew about the beings from other worlds entering this place. The beings of the Sea called them the Children of Heaven. He thought that they were the only Civilization here. "I am talking about the Civilization that had created this place. Even I don't know much about them as it has been a long time since they disappeared."

The Whale Mother tried to remember as much as she could, but the information she had was also limited. There wasn't much mention about that Civilization, other than the fact that they had created everything in this place. The creatures of the sea that had seen that era were said to be very fortunate. However, they never talked about that era, even until the point they died. She herself talked to her Grandfather about this, but he didn't tell her anything except a single sentence. He told her to forget about them.

She wasn't certain if this restriction was because of that Civilization, but if anyone could do this, she believed it were the people who made this place. "When the Civilization was flourishing, no one dared to enter this place. But after they disappeared, people from other worlds started arriving. They were the Children of Heaven."

"They treated this world like a plaything, but more than that, they had a reason to come. They were looking for something related to that Civilization."

"How are you certain that they were looking for the Civilization?" Karyk asked, slightly intrigued by the information he gathered. There was a Civilisation which was able to restrict all his abilities? Even Elzeira wasn't able to do that completely. Even that place allowed him to use the essence that he already possessed. He could feel the essence of the world, no matter how little. He could also feel his abilities in that world. But in this world, it was as if something had been keeping him in a completely blank state. He was quite curious about that Civilization? He felt that it was something that had even surpassed the Archangels. Even the Archangels weren't able to turn Elzeira into a world like that. If they could do that, they wouldn't need to fight the Celestial Empire. In that way, this civilization was far ahead. Another thing he could feel was that this world wasn't a low world. It was much more powerful than Elzeira. He could not use his abilities, but he could still feel it. This world was a universe in itself. A much higher realm than the God Realm from his universe. The woman looked at her child, as she thought about Karyk's question. She did not speak the answer out loud as she did not want her son to hear it. "Because when they first arrived, they came looking for us." She conveyed her words using her thoughts, sending them directly to Karyk. She told Karyk how the Children of Heaven arrived in the Oceanic Region. It was when her son wasn't born. They came to ask them about the Civilization. They wanted to know everything that they knew. They thought the Oceanic Species knew about the Civilization as they lived here from the time before that Civilization disappeared. "They also asked us about the key..."

"My father did not know what they were talking about. But they did not listen. In anger, they killed my father. Our people tried to fight back, but it was useless."

"They were too strong. In that fight, a lot of our people died. Even... Even my husband..."

They called it a war. But Karyk could understand from her words. It was just a massacre. She simply called it a war because she did not want to disrespect the death of her family. If she called it a war, at least she could say they died in a war, instead of saying that they died like insects. Hearing her words, Karyk finally understood why she hated them so much. It was clear why she warned her son against meeting any Children of Heaven. It was because she was worried that she might lose her only son as well. However, what made him even more curious was the Key. He vaguely remembered the half Archangel Aexin also mentioned some key when attacking him. The Archangels also appeared to be after a key, which they thought was related to him. 'Are the Children of Heaven... The Archangels?' He could only think of the worst. If they were really Archangels, then it was the worst match for him in a place like this. If this place was filled with Archangels, then things became much more complicated for him.
