Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Aexin looked at the woman, lying not too far from Karyk. "So she already died. No wonder they had to send me here. Their slaves were just as useless as I thought."

"Are you an Archangel?" Karyk asked the man, who looked very different from an Archangel. He did share some traits, but he was also different in many ways. He only had one wing, and his physical traits were also different. "Am I an Archangel? That's not for you to know about," Aexin replied. "And secondly, I didn't give you permission to talk to me!"

Aexin disappeared. By the time Karyk could react, he was already in front of him. Sending danger, Karyk flew back. He avoided being touched, but still he was shocked as he touched his throat. His skin had decayed, and he felt some pain in his throat. He was certain that Aexin had missed him, yet he was hurt?

"They told me to not destroy this place if possible. I have to control quite a lot, but still I'm impressed. You are a lot better than the kids above."

"Who are-"

Karyk tried asking again. All he wanted was answers about his identity. He was less interested in the fight. Just like Aexin, he also didn't want to destroy this world. At least until the portals were sealed, he didn't want to fight back. If the world was destroyed before the portals were sealed, earth was also going to die with this world. At first, he had thought that he could drag this out by talking to him. But the man didn't look like he was interested in talking. Before Karyk could finish his question, the man appeared behind him. Karyk dodged the man's fist again, using complex footwork. He again avoided the man, but once again he wasn't completely unharmed. He felt the right side of his face decay. His healing was trying to keep up, but it was having a hard time. Karyk had just finished dodging when the man attacked again. With quick reflexes, Karyk twisted away from the man's strikes. Unfortunately, this time, he couldn't avoid the attack as the man expected him to dodge. He changed the direction of his attack, aiming where Karyk had dodged. His fist landed on Karyk's chest, sending him staggering backward. "I told you, I am frustrated. So I hope you don't pass out too soon." Aexin cracked his knuckles. He was involved in many battles in their world. He had beaten many Archangels, despite not being a pureblood. He was someone who expressed himself with his fist. Despite the blow, Karyk stood his ground, focusing on his breathing. It wasn't hurt by the punch as much as he was hurt by the effects of it. It wasn't just his skin that had started decaying, but he also felt his heart and his bones affected by this decay. "I see that you don't want to tal-" Karyk spoke again. And once again, before he could finish, the man moved. His fist came straight for Karyk's face. "In that case, let me repay this favor in kind!"

Karyk's fist was covered in the essence of death as he gave up on dodging. If the man wanted a fight like this, then he was going to give him that. If the man didn't want to answer when he used his words, he was going to make the man answer with his fist. Karyk moved aside, making the man's fist miss. However, just like before, the man changed his direction, as if creating a battle dance. "Did you think this will work?" Aexin stated as he swung his fist towards Karyk's neck with precision and force. His fist landed on Karyk's neck, but he didn't feel any resistance. Karyk's figure turned into mist, as if he was never real. "I just have to make it work!"

Words responded around Aexin as a fist landed on his face, sending him flying back. He quickly regained his balance and stood firm, revealing surprise. "No wonder they want you. You definitely aren't ordinary..."

He rubbed his cheeks, feeling something wrong in that punch. It didn't have the essence of decay. But he still felt like the tissues of his face were dying after that punch. It was similar to his decay, but also different. "No wonder your people had troubled those old idiots for so long. I have changed my mind now!"

He further added. "I was planning to take you back alive. But I'm so excited now that I might not be able to control myself. I might actually break you!"

A smirk spread across his lips, but behind that smirk, there was excitement. It had been a long time since someone had hurt him. Only those old idiots back home were strong enough to hurt him. He couldn't break them, because there were too many of them. And they were also very strong. But it was different with Karyk. Karyk was someone that they wanted the most. And he was also someone that he wanted to destroy. It was like he was a delicacy for him. ....

Gabriel was standing on the Central World which had turned into an ocean. Aliac was standing in another point in the Galaxy, which was near the Abyss. It was also the second point where the portals were most concentrated. And lastly, it was Ryder who was standing in the Realm of Gods where another focal point of the portals was. All of them were connected and were able to hear each other's messages. "On the count of three, give it your all! We must close the portals!" Aliac sent a message through his thoughts. "One..."

"Two..."

"Three..."

An earthquake was felt in every world in the universe as three divine beings used all their might. Gabriel used everything he had, all in an attempt to deal with the portal. There was nothing more that he wanted than to just enter Elzeira to help Karyk, but he had to protect this world. He couldn't leave this place. Between Karyk and his sister, he chose his sister as Karyk wanted.
