Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Gabriel opened the metallic box that was given to him by the Cylix and Novius.

However, as he opened the box, he saw only one pill inside. Noticing the small white pill, he raised his head, wondering what it was.

"What is this pill?" He asked Novius.

Cylix couldn't help but laugh. "You know, you are strong but not quite knowledgeable. You need to work on that. It's not just strength that can help a mage, but also the vast Knowledge. The pill you see before you is a Soul Healing Pill. It will give your soul some relief."

"You've placed a lot of burden on your soul. These pills can be used to heal your soul and to relieve some symptoms like trembling," Novius explained. "Take it. There's no poison in it."

Gabriel suspiciously looked at Novius and Cylix. Even though he wasn't too suspicious of them, he didn't trust them enough to eat something that was given by them. There were many things that could go wrong.

However, as he was concerned, the Infernal King also spoke, "You can eat. No poison."

The Infernal King also confirmed that the pill wasn't poisoned. If there was anything wrong, he could've seen it with his flaming eye.

After getting confirmation even from the Infernal King, Gabriel picked up the small white pill.

He had never heard about a pill like that in his life, which was what surprised him even more.

"Did you really not see a pill like that before? I thought these pills should be common," Novius asked. "Any decent Alchemist should be able to make a pill like that."

Gabriel wasn't from a wealthy family. He was from a small town, so he didn't know much. But still, if there were pills like this, he was sure that Lira would have them as well.

"If she had them, why didn't she give me or tell me anything about these?" Gabriel stated at the pill, lost in some thought.

He could think of multiple possibilities, one of which could be that she didn't think he was going to need something like this, as there was no way for him to overburden his soul with the low-tier spells that he possessed.

It wasn't wrong either since there was no way for Lira to know that he was going to become a Mid Tier Mage in a few days and even gain a High Tier Spell of Death...

"It's not his fault..." Izen chimed in, breaking his silence.

"Speak," Cylix said, gesturing for Izen to speak further.

"The pills aren't easy to make... At least they weren't in my time. The medicinal plants that are the core of the pills were becoming harder and harder to find when I came here," Izen further explained. "In fact, in my time, there were only a handful of pills, and they were sold at a very expensive price."

"I see." Cylix nodded. "So the Soul Nourishing Pills could've gone extinct by the present time. In that case, it's really not surprising that he didn't know about this."

"What is happening in the outside World..." Novius was surprised that a pill that used to be the most basic item during their time was also extinct.

The Soul Nourishing Pills allowed them to use spells beyond their limits without being too worried about the consequences. This also allowed them to break through their limitations by challenging their bodies.

Unfortunately, without those pills, the side effects of spells beyond someone's limits were too much, which slowed down the training of a Mage. No wonder the youngsters of the world were getting weaker compared to their time.

Seeing the conversation and after getting the confirmation of the Infernal King, Gabriel placed the pill on his lips and swallowed it.

Anyone here could lie about the pill, but the Infernal King couldn't allow him to eat something that was dangerous for him as he was bound by the contract of the Grimoire. He could do nothing which harmed Gabriel even in the smallest way.

As soon as Gabriel swallowed the pill, he really felt better. The pill turned to the purest form of energy inside his body which nourished his soul.

The pure and gentle energy felt somewhat cold, but it was also very good for Gabriel's health as the pill didn't just nourish his soul but also returned some of his strength to him.

The trembling in Gabriel's hands was going down slowly with time, but the magical pill increased the process by a lot. The trembling and the body ache disappeared completely. Gabriel's heartbeat also returned to its usual pace.

"This pill..."

The pill really wasn't poisonous. Instead, it was magical! Something like this was really too incredible!

"You should stay seated. Don't push your body. Even though the pill will heal some symptoms, your body is still tired. Just rest and let the pill help. Even with the pill, you still need an hour of rest," Novius told Gabriel before turning around.

"As for your next battle, we can start that after you are completely fine," he added without even glancing back.

Even though he wasn't lying about the rest that Gabriel needed, he did exaggerate the time a little to keep Gabriel here for longer. He wanted to talk to Gabriel about the outside world and how things were there at the moment since the information he received today all came as a surprise to him.

He had many questions to ask, especially about Gabriel's element and the Academy. But more importantly, he wanted to know about the current situation of the Dark Mages outside. Was there really no dark Mage left?

Novius walked back to his throne with Cylix. However, they didn't let Gabriel stay on the ground either.

Novius clapped their hands, making two thrones appear near the center of the call for Gabriel and Infernal King to sit. Since they had an hour here,

Gabriel stood up himself after seeing the throne. He didn't even have to ask who it was for. There were only two people here, and two new thrones had appeared.

Surprisingly, the throne on which Axion used to be sitting before disappearing as his existence was completely removed with his loss.

After Gabriel sat down, Novius also arranged for something to eat for Gabriel and the Infernal King.

"Eat up."

Even though Gabriel was supposed to be fighting them later, they themselves allowed Gabriel to rest and even fed him. This kind of hospitality was never received by Gabriel on any of the floors, which just made him believe that Cylix and Novius were so confident about their strength that they didn't even consider him a challenge…
