Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Novel

Chapter 745  745: Traitor

As Caen lifted his modified Divine Sword, he could sense the immense power surging within it.

The Special Gems of Life embedded in the hilt pulsed with an otherworldly energy, connecting with his very essence. It was as if the sword had become an extension of himself, a conduit for his determination to seek vengeance for his mother.

The Leader of the High Council watched with a strange look on his face. He had seen the Sword when it was being created, but he didn't feel anything special from the sword. But as soon as Caen held the sword, it completely changed.

"Young Lord Caen, your strength has grown exponentially. I must congratulate you!" The Lord of the High Council congratulated Caen.

"Congratulations!"

The other Gods also started congratulating him.

"Now isn't the time for celebration..." Caen reminded the Gods. This war was going to be nothing like before.

Ezekiel was someone who even his father wasn't able to kill. That just showed what a big threat that man was.

He didn't know if the Sword could kill someone that was said to be a true immortal, but he didn't care. He was going to kill the person that took the life of his mother.

"Is there still no information about Uncle Janus?" he asked while placing the Sword in a specially made sheath.

He walked out of the Building with the sword, the other gods following behind him.

All the Villagers were instructed to stay inside their houses and not leave, no matter what happened. At the same time, the Children of the Gods were also told to stay hidden. Only the adult gods were going to fight this battle.

"Still no sign. We kept an eye for any information about Lord Janus when we were searching for the stone, but there was nothing," the Lord of Upper Realm sighed.

He knew that the battle would've been much more favourable for him, if Janus was also on their side.

Janus was the strongest god in the Realm of Gods, and also Chaos' brother. If he wasn't absent when the Realm of Gods was attacked, things wouldn't have deteriorated to this point.

"I wonder if he's hiding somewhere, afraid of Ezekiel," one of the Gods wondered. But only after he spoke it did he realise that he had spoken his thoughts out loud.

To speak such words against the Guardian was enough to be killed. But fortunately for him, Caen didn't react. In fact, Caen also had the same thought.

How was it possible that Janus hadn't returned, even after so much happened?! His mother was killed! Their homes were snatched, and a war was on the horizon, yet Janus didn't return.

"Only in troubled times can we truly see a person's true loyalty," Caen muttered, his voice not loud, yet it was heard by everyone.

"In the last great war also, he didn't do anything. It was my father who did everything, and even sacrificed himself. And when everything was over, my dear uncle came out. And now as well..."

"It would be better if you stop being naive, and thinking he would come out and help us."

Caen had already lost any trust he had on his uncle. His relationship with his uncle was already bad in the past, but now it was even worse.

Just like Gabriel felt that he was abandoned by Karyk, he felt that he was abandoned by Janus.

"He has as much a hand in my mother's death as those bastards. After I deal with them, I'll find my dear uncle, even if he's hiding at the ends of the universe! I'll send him to my mother so he can apologise to her!" His voice carried a distinct hint of a killing intent.

With a calm stride, Caen led the way out of the cave, his fellow Gods and warriors following him. No one was allowed to avoid this battle. No one was allowed to hide! Winning was the only option and loss wasn't acceptable.

The skies above the village had turned even darker, the aura of the Abyss intensifying. It was time to face Ezekiel and stop whatever dark plans he had set in motion.

After the world was sealed, the only thing left to do was to draw out Caen and the other gods.

Ezekiel wanted to destroy the four Upper Realm worlds simultaneously. Once they killed all the mortals, only the gods were going to be left. It was easy to find them after that. But Gabriel didn't go with the plan.

He didn't want to burn an entire house to draw out some rats.

He took the lead this time. A terrifying pressure descended from the skies, covering every continent and every city in the Upper Realm.

The Mortals who were confused about what was happening in the sky, fell to their knees, their bodies losing all their strength.

Even the Clan Leaders of the strongest clans felt suffocated, as the terrifying pressure descended over them. It was like the wrath of gods had descended on the Upper Realm.

Only the Generals of the Upper Realm remained standing, but even they felt uncomfortable.

They flew high in the sky. It was their duty to protect the Upper Realm when the Lord of Upper Realm wasn't here.

The four generals soared higher and higher into the sky, steadily feeling the mounting weight of the increasing pressure with each passing moment.

Soon, they reached the barrier that had surrounded the Four Worlds. All four Generals gathered together and attacked the barrier at the same time.

Unfortunately, they were too weak to destroy the barrier erected by Ezekiel.

In another place, Ezekiel felt an attack on the barrier.

"Are they finally showing themselves? But the attack seems too weak?" He pondered. He waved his hand, creating a small opening in the area of the barrier that was being attacked.

The Four Generals flew out of the Barrier, only to be stunned as they caught the sight of Gods in the distance. And amongst the gods, they saw one familiar face.

"You...?" They couldn't believe Gabriel was standing there. And his strength... Even they felt suppressed even when looking at him.
