Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

As the shadowy creature flew over him, Karyk watched in disbelief. He couldn\'t even recognise what creature it was as he couldn\'t see its entire body.

In this world, even a wolf was the size of half the mountain. As for the bird, it was even larger. And these were just two of the creatures that he had seen so far.

Karyk felt like he had appeared in the world of giants, where some things were large beyond comprehension.

The enormous winged beast cast a giant shadow over the landscape, plunging everything beneath it into a temporary night.

It didn\'t even flap its wings, but still the surroundings were caught in a windstorm.

Some trees on the volcano were uprooted with the impact of the winds. Lava also flew high, caught in the storm.

Even the rubble on which Karyk was sitting, started rising with the wind. It was as if the massive rocks had turned weightless.

"A weird place indeed." Karyk raised his hand, casting a barrier around the rubble where he was sitting. It protected him from the wind as well as the giant stones, trees and volcanic remnants flying everywhere.

The storm disappeared when the mysterious bird was gone from Karyk\'s sight. The darkness in the sky was gone and his surroundings became brighter again.

The surroundings were changed a lot. Most of the trees were uprooted, and the rocks from his mountain were lying on the volcano.

The only thing that hadn\'t changed was the giant wolf that was still sitting, chewing on the twisted trees.

He hadn\'t moved even an inch, but still he was completely fine. There was lava remnant around him, but none had managed to touch his fur.

"Did he use a barrier as well?"

Karyk didn\'t know how the wolf was completely fine even in that situation. He had been distracted by the bird, so didn\'t notice what the wolf did. Was he just lucky or did it use a skill?

The wolf, seemingly undeterred by the flying creature, resumed its meal, biting on the twisted tree as if it were a mere snack. Karyk, however, knew better than to underestimate the inhabitants of this world.

It was clear that this world went beyond his common sense. If these were just the ordinary beasts in this world, then what were mythical beasts here?

His eyes drifted back to the misty terrain surrounding the lake, which was unique in its own way. Even with his improved vision, he couldn\'t see through that mist. He stood up, brushing the dust off his clothes, and began to walk along the edge of the lake. His shadow followed behind, looking a little different from him.

He didn\'t have any weapon in his hand. He was walking bare handed, wearing clothes made from the essence of the abyss.

His shadow, however, appeared to carry a shadow scythe that was even larger than his entire body. The blade of the scythe was in the form of a crescent moon that was over five meters long.

As Karyk reached near the lake, he noticed that the path had started to get even more uneven, with strange shaped rocks making the floor.

Still, this looked to be the most ordinary aspect of this world, compared to the volcanoes and the giant creatures of this world.

"Looks like I was a little hasty with my judgment," Karyk thought as he noticed the water of the lake was not ordinary.

His reflections in the lake seemed almost too perfect, as if they were showing another reality. He crouched down and dipped his fingers into the water, feeling a strange warmth that contrasted with the cool misty air.

Suddenly, the water began to ripple, and a face emerged from the depths.

Karyk instinctively jumped back, ready for anything.

"Who are you?" the face asked, its voice echoing as if coming from the depths of the lake itself.

"I should be the one asking that question. Who are you? Are you the spirit of this lake?" Karyk asked in return.

The face was made from the lake\'s water, as if the lake was talking to him. If it wasn\'t someone\'s ability, then it was the doing of the lake itself.

The face studied him for a moment. However, there was no response from the lake. There was only absolute silence.

"I see... You are not one of them..." The lake finally broke its silence while the face disappeared.

"One of them?" Karyk frowned, wondering what this thing was talking about. Was he talking about angels?

Before Karyk could even try to ask for a clarification, he saw a crystal vine come out of the water, shooting straight for him.

The vine wrapped itself around Karyk, forcefully pulling him towards the ocean.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Is that how it\'s going to be? Since I\'m not one of \'them\', you think you can consume me?"

Karyk firmly planted his foot on the ground, shadow spikes coming out of his body that penetrated the crystal wine that had wrapped around his body. Ordinary shadow essence couldn\'t harm the vine, but when merged with the shadow of the abyss, the vine around Karyk\'s body was destroyed into small fragments.

that had come out of the ground before it could even retreat inside water. "How did you do it?!" The face again appeared on the surface of the water, shocked. "You are not one of them. So how?! Who are you?!"

"Who am I? You should have wondered about that before attacking me, shouldn\'t you?"

Karyk reached out his hand. His shadow appeared next to him and handed over the shadow scythe.

"I don\'t know what this world is like, but one thing is the same, no matter where I go. If you target me, I will return it a hundred fold. So... Let\'s see what you actually are."

He raised his scythe, which was strengthened even more. Karyk brought his scythe down, leaving the trail of abyssal essence in its wake.
