Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: Closing the Net



A portal opened outside the city, connecting to the land of fairies. The entire city turned its gaze towards the portal, eagerly waiting for the appearance of the fairies.

Unlike the other High Clans, the fairies were not feared by the people. There were no frightening rumors or stories of destruction and mass slaughter associated with the fairies.

The other High Clans, however, carried a reputation that instilled fear. Their dominance was often linked to tales of violence and oppression.

In contrast, the fairies were believed to be kind and close to nature, and this positive impression was present despite their rare appearances in the outside world.

With the portal now open, the eyes of many people lit up in anticipation, waiting for someone to emerge.

Inside the Colosseum, the High Clans also sensed the connection to the realm of fairies.

The Lords of all High Clans looked towards the portal, their expressions filled with strangeness. They had encountered the fairies before and knew something wasn't right.

The essence leaking from the portal, which was supposed to be the pure energy of nature, felt much darker, as though it had been corrupted.

"My Lady, this presence feels similar to what we felt at..." The members of various clans rushed to their lords, voicing their concerns.

These were the members who had previously investigated the disappearance of their subordinate clans. Although they hadn't found the culprit, the presence they felt then was eerily similar to what they were sensing now.

"Oh? You mean it was the work of the Fairies?" the Demon Queen smirked.

She had been quite curious about the identity of the people who brought such instability to the realm. She was sure that it wasn't the work of a single person or a small group.

To wipe out so many clans in such a short time, without leaving a single survivor, only the High Clans appeared to be capable of doing that.

She had already been suspicious about the involvement of a High Clan, and now her suspicions had been confirmed.

One of the reasons she even came here was to find out which of the High Clans it was. She had already expected it to be a trap, that's why she took special measures before coming here.

Still, even she was surprised that the fairies were involved. She had assumed it was going to be the Angels.

"They kept their intentions hidden quite well," the Lord of the Monster Clan said, laughing. However, within her laughter, there was quite a lot of anger hidden.

Most of the clans that were destroyed were subordinates to the Monster Clan. An entire monster forest of Giant Monsters had been wiped after all.

"To think that they kept themselves hidden so well. And the world thought that they were better than us. How pathetic," another member of the Demon Clan said, not noticing the strange reaction of the human that was a part of their group.

The young woman who had come with their group was looking towards the portals, her expressions darkened. There were many people who felt this essence for the first time in this world, but she remembered feeling this once before.

"Impossible. It can't be him. He should have been destroyed with the destruction of Elzeira. Even if he came here, he couldn't have done all this..." She shook her head, refusing to believe her heart.

If Karyk was here, she would have recognised that woman as the person who stabbed him in the back by destroying his city in Elzeira just because he refused to become her slave.

There were only two more people who found this essence familiar. The first one was Aster who had fought and almost killed Karyk in Elzeira.

As for the second person, it was his uncle and the person who was representing the Angels in this meeting. He was a member of the High Council of the Angels.

He didn't link this essence with Karyk as much as he did it with civilization. When the civilization had disappeared, the Angels had gone there to investigate and retrieve the forgotten prince.

They couldn't catch the forgotten prince, but they did find a secret realm in the depths of the Royal Palace.

There was a well in that place that even made the Angels hesitate in approaching it. This trace of essence felt very familiar to what was noticed in that place.

"The Forgotten Prince is here?" he muttered, the corner of his lips crept up. "Did he fall for the trap?"

The Angels had already realized who was behind these disappearances. That's also why they didn't send anyone to investigate like the other clans.

There was only one person who could have done that while also leaving behind such traces. The disappearance of the civilization world was also something that happened recently.

All these things started happening only after Karyk had been taken by 'that person', saved from Aster. He already expected Karyk to come for them, but even he was surprised at how brazen that person was being.

It was as if the forgotten prince was trying to taunt them, throwing all caution in the wind. That's also why the Angels decided to throw this trap.

The meeting was arranged especially for Karyk, and it appeared to have worked. The person they were looking for was here.

He brought out a crystal from his pocket, holding it firmly in his hand as if he could crush it at any moment. However, he didn't do that yet. He first wanted to confirm that Karyk was here in the first place.

Only if Karyk was here could he close the net. He couldn't afford to be too hasty.

"Don't hide inside the Portal. Come out, forgotten prince," the Angel said, his eyes looking towards the portal with great expectations.

The citizens also looked at the portal, wondering why no one was stepping out of it. They also didn't understand why they could feel such an evil energy emanating from within.

Something didn't feel right. Was it really a portal to the land of fairies?

"Look, someone is coming out!" a person suddenly called out.

Everyone's eyes turned towards the portal in the middle. A person stepped out of the portal. However, to their surprise that person wasn't an angel.

It was a man, whose body was covered in strange markings upto his fingers. Only his face was somewhat cleaner. He was donned a long dark robe, which also had similar markings that

appeared to be alive.

The strangest part was that the person didn't just have one shadow. Instead, he had more than

ten shadows.

"He is here!" The Angel laughed as he finally crushed the crystal in his hand.
