Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

"Do you realize that you can also get killed if we tell others what you've been saying?" Gabriel asked the young man. "I know you won't do that," the young man answered. "And why won't we do that?" Gabriel asked, wondering why this guy was so confident about this. "Because you two have worked with the Pirates for a long time. I'm sure you know your master well enough by now to understand what he is going to do to you, once you beca burden."

The young man made his thoughts clear. His words also convinced Gabriel that he truly didn't know who they were. He was still thinking that they were the pirates who had returned from the other world. Only very few people amongst the pirates should have known about their mission. So it was surprising that someone who was new to the group knew about it. "Even if you are correct, what else can we do?" Gabriel asked the man. "I'm sure you aren't asking us to betray, are you?"

"I'm not asking you to do anything." The young man let out a smile. "It's for you to decide what you want to do. I just thought I should express my thoughts."

The young man didn't overstay his welcome. Taking the bottle of alcohol, he walked away, leaving Karyk and Gabriel behind. With how relaxed the young boy was, it was certainly surprising. Although he justified his actions, but if was clear that his reasons were lies. Someone who had managed to survive for so long... How could that person be a fool to put his life on the line, just to express his thoughts. "What an interesting man," Karyk let out a smile as he took a sip of the wine. However, he didn't worry about the man's threat. He might have been concerned if they were actually pirates, but they were far from it. They were able to protect themselves. Karyk alone was strong enough, let alone Gabriel who was now able to kill the Purebloods as well. With just the two of them, they could kill all the pirates if they wanted. But that wasn't their plan. Killing the pirates was no different than wasting their resources. Instead, they wanted to use these pirates for the days that were to come. Although they could kill the pirates, they would also have to exhaust a lot of strength. If they did that, they could only return to recover, which was even more wasteful. "I don't know what he wants from us, but it looks like we will soon find out." Gabriel took a sip of the alcohol, not sparing another glance at the young pirate. The alcohol of the pirates wasn't the best alcohol, but it wasn't bad either. It was at least better than the alcohol he had tasted before. ....

For the next few days, Roderick didn't approach them. It was as if he was waiting for them to approach him instead. Unfortunately for him, the two of them didn't approach him either. They weren't in any hurry either. After all, they had plenty of tto deal with that boy after they dealt with the so-called master of this group. With time, the ship reached near a Majestic Island that was over a hundred times larger than the previous island. In fact, they couldn't even see the island for a long time, even if it was right before their eyes. It was only after their ship passed through a strange just that the island becvisible. The beautiful Island had lush greenery, towering mountains, and crystal-clear waters that was a sight to behold. There were also hundreds of large pirate ships anchored along the coastline, hinting at a lively and bustling pirate community thriving on the island. "Finally we are back home." The Captain of the Ship exclaimed. The Captain's voice echoed through the ship, evoking a sense of excitement among the crew. Karyk and Gabriel exchanged glances, knowing that they were finally here. The place was much better than they had expected. The number of pirates was also big, and so was the protection. It wasn't surprising that the Pirates had managed to survive so long in the ocean. They had managed to hide their base well. Even the Elzeiran Empire didn't know the right position of the Pirate Island that was said to be constantly moving in the ocean, changing its location. As the ship docked at the island, the bustling atmosphere becpalpable. Pirates of all kinds, adorned with tattoos and weapons, moved swiftly on the dock, their laughter and conversations filling the air. It was clear that this island was the heart of the pirate community. They hadn't even gotten off the ship yet they could already see many pirates who were as strong as elite knights of the Royal Army. "The Master must be waiting for you. You can go ahead, I'll take care of the things here," The captain of the Ship reminded Gabriel. Gabriel nodded. Stepping off the ship, Karyk and Gabriel blended in seamlessly with the crowd, their disguises ensuring that they remained inconspicuous. As Gabriel had seen the memories of the real pirate, he knew the man that they had to meet. He also knew the place where they had to go. As they made their way deeper into the island, they noticed a grand pirate tavern, its doors wide open invitingly. "It should be here," Gabriel said, deciding to step inside.

The tavern was filled with rowdy pirates, their laughter and cheers filling the room. The smell of alcohol and smoke hung in the air, creating a fun atmosphere.

However, as soon as Gabriel entered the bar with Karyk, the entire bar went silent. All the pirates looked towards them. "Look who is here... Is your vacation finally over?" The Bartender looked at Gabriel as he opened the door back. "You can go inside. Master is waiting for you," he stated.
