Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage



988 Chapter 988: Terror

The thief, still holding the child tightly, looked around the unfamiliar territory. He was visibly shaken, as this was the first time he had traveled through space.

In stark contrast, the child in his arms remained silent.

As the thief walked through the city, he realized that the people here dressed very differently, making him stand out even more.

Another thing he noticed was that the people here were much weaker than him. They were even weaker than the ordinary people of the Civilization.

"This seems to be a lower-level world," he muttered to himself. "That is for the best. This should stop them."

What he didn't know was that the Angels already knew his destination, even though it was selected at random.

The only thing stopping them was the fact that they couldn't descend without destroying this entire place.

"Language Comprehension," he whispered, activating a skill to understand the language of the people around him.

He observed how they were looking at him and talking to each other. Initially, he was curious about what they were saying.

Were they scared of him because he appeared out of nowhere? But as he began to understand their words, he realized they weren't scared of him at all.

"Where did this weird beggar come from?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Look at his clothes. How weird."

"He's holding the child like his life depends on it. Is that his child?"

"I think he might have stolen that child."

"Shh, don't look at him. He might be crazy."

Many people observed him, talking amongst themselves. Some even went to inform the Celestial Guards.

Meanwhile, the thief approached a person nearest to him. "Who is the strongest person in this world?" he asked.

The young man was taken aback. "The strongest person? There is only one person who can be called the strongest. It's our Emperor."

"Emperor? I see. That makes sense. Where can I find this Emperor?" the thief inquired further.

"Are you really a fool? How can you be so close to the Royal City and not know where the Emperor stays?"

The young man regretted even engaging with the strange man but answered

nonetheless, pointing towards a place that would be known as the Land of Chaos in the future.

"Our Emperor stays in the next city."

"Stay back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the City Guards arrived and commanded everyone to stay back.

"You must be the guards," the thief observed, eyeing the men in shiny armor. "Lead me to your Emperor."

"Lead you to our Emperor?" The Guards looked at the man even weirdly. His behavior appeared very suspicious.

"Are you planning to hurt him?" he asked.

"If he listens to me, I don't believe I would." The Thief honestly answered. He just needed one thing from the Emperor and he couldn't promise if he was going to hurt him or not.

He already had a bad experience with a Ruler in the world he came from. He didn't want to make the same mistake again.

"You dare?!" The Guards couldn't believe that this man actually threatened their Emperor while looking for him. His intentions were clearly bad.

"Take him down and put him in prison. I'll interrogate him himself." The strongest knight commanded his men.

The City Guards listened to the commands and rushed towards the man.

As they were about to apprehend him, the man suddenly raised his hand.

The Knight thought he was about to surrender, but in the next moment, his face grew pale when he saw all the guards fall to their knees, their breathing coming to a stop. Even the thief was surprised how well it had worked. In the world he came from, this spell would only cause a minor headache to the Guards that worked for the King.

In this world, he had killed these people with such ease. He wasn't sure if it was because the people of this world were weak or because he was of a higher existence in this world.

The Knight also found it hard to believe his eyes. He didn't even see how this person killed his men.

"Take me to your Emperor," the thief told the Knight.

"As if I would ever betray the Empire!" The Knight didn't listen to the thief. He pulled out his sword and attacked.

Unfortunately, his outcome was the same. He fell on the ground, his breathing coming to a sudden stop.

All the citizens watched the City Guards being killed so brutally. They were horrified.

Many even started running away from the man.

The Thief appeared in front of the man who had answered him initially, stopping him from running. He asked the man to escort him to the Emperor, and the man couldn't

say no.

The young man escorted the unfamiliar man with a child to the Royal City, which was again heavily guarded.

Karyk watched the man take him to the Royal City. And along the way, many guards fell to the ground, lifeless. All those who tried to stop him were killed.

The Thief brought him to the Royal Palace.

All this time, Karyk was wondering just who had scared the Celestial Emperor so much that he was even willing to oppose the Angels instead of handing the child

over.

It was only now that he understood who this person was. This was a person who truly caused terror in the Emperor's heart when he showed up with a child.

Not only did the thief frighten the Emperor, but he also cast manipulation magic on him. It was only after that, he handed the child to the Emperor and told him to protect him at any cost.

The Angels didn't know this place, and even if they knew it, they couldn't descend. He believed this was a safe place for the Prince as the strongest person in this world

was going to protect him.

The Thief looked at the baby one last time before he left the Empire, forever to disappear from that world.
