Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

A mysterious aura rushed out of the tower, moving at incredible speed. It was as if it was a storm of an aura that the Head Council Members had never felt before.

All the Head Council Members were sent back flying as if a powerful attack hit all of them at once, which was quite strange since it was just an aura and no attack! If just the aura was this powerful, then what about an actual attack?

Eliana landed on the ground in the distance, balancing herself. Still, she coughed some blood as her face became somewhat pale.

The other Head Council Members weren't in much better condition either, and it was only worse for the ordinary teachers.

"We need to stop this!" Eliana roared, realizing that whatever this aura was, it could hurt their students.

Just like before, she cast a barrier to stop this mysterious aura from moving further. However, she knew that she couldn't do it alone. She needed the help of others if she wanted to succeed.

Rem also wiped the blood from his lips as he came to help. He joined both his hands, casting a spell. Thick walls of Earth came out of the group, reinforced by the element of Earth surrounding the tower.

Eliana's light Barrier was the first layer of defense, followed by Rem's barrier of Earth. Lishen also cast a barrier of wind as the third layer of defense to stop the aura.

A wall of fire also rose, giving another layer of cover, thanks to the involvement of Yoan. The other Head Council Members also came forward, helping with their best protection spell.

Unfortunately, even their best protection spell failed to stop the aura. Let alone the aura that had already passed through, even the ones that were still coming from inside the tower in pulses managed to break the barriers.

The barrier of Light shattered in the face of the aura, followed by the others.

*****

Just as Eliana had stated, if things were bad for them, then it could only be worse for the commoners.

Within minutes, this aura surrounded the entire World. Only the powerful mages were able to resist the aura, but even they couldn't do so without getting hurt. As for the weak mages, they all fell unconscious, unable to resist that aura.

It was a phenomenon that was seen all around the World, which stunned everyone. The only ones who weren't affected by this aura were the mortals who didn't have any Element! It was like the King of Elements had awakened, and it was telling all the other Elements to remember their place!

Lira was still sitting in the forest with her eyes closed. Her nose was bleeding, and her face remained paler than ever as if her body had no blood.

Just like the mysterious aura of Gabriel was coming out of the Tower of Challenges, it was also coming out of the Book of Darkness since that's where the Realm of Darkness was where Gabriel was present.

****

In a faraway place, there existed a beautiful temple. If Gabriel were here, he would've been able to recognize that Temple as it was the place that he had seen in one of his visions as soon as he had touched the Black Sphere in the Museum of Elements.

The Temple was completely identical. The only difference was that the temple looked much older now.

Before the Temple, there stood Lelin with a white sphere in his hand.

Lelin was about to step closer to the temple when he stopped. He raised his head, feeling a powerful aura's presence.

"What do you think could've happened?" he asked, glancing back.

A hooded Spectre stood behind Lelin, looking in the direction of the Academy, which was thousands of miles away from this place.

"Someone went a bit too far..." The Spectre answered. "Too bad."

****

In an unknown place, there existed a dark river that was filled with spirits. There was never a single moment when the ear-piercing screams of Spirits couldn't be heard. However, at the moment, the river was completely silent... A bit too silent!

The river connected to another mysterious temple, from where Gabriel had received his Ancestral Staff from.

Right at the entrance of the Temple, there were nine giant statues, each belonging to one of the elements. However, there was only one statue that seemed to be damaged... The statue right in the middle.

However, due to the pressures of the mysterious aura that even managed to cover this part of the world, the other eight statues also broke into pieces. The ground started trembling, which wasn't an isolated incident here as there were many places that were facing an earthquake at the moment.

The Statues of the Eight other gods broke apart. At least the central statue was broken from its head up whenever it was broken. However, all the other statues weren't that lucky either as they all broke into thousands of pieces.

*****

The Realm of Darkness was a place that was Lira's domain. It was what she used to capture Gabriel; however, she was the one who was captured here now.

A black ring appeared around Gabriel's finger, even in the realm of darkness, as the Grimoire of Necromancy managed to locate him thanks to his slightly more powerful aura. Even though it didn't seem like he needed the help of his Grimoire at the moment, it was much welcome.

Gabriel was unconscious, and his subconscious was controlling his soul temporarily, but that subconsciously appeared to be able to bring out something that Gabriel couldn't. It was like there was some power that he couldn't consciously access... At least not yet.

Strangely enough, it seemed as if he subconsciously was not only able to access that power but also to use it like it had been a part of him for centuries.

Gabriel raised right hand, glancing at his black ring with his lifeless eyes. He placed his right hand on his left shoulder as he started chanting something.

Even as Gabriel chanted a spell, his voice seemed the same as it had always been, but there also seemed something different about that voice now.

The voice had no shred of emotions in it. Moreover, it also felt as if the voice could be heard coming from every direction, even though it was clear that it was coming from Gabriel's lips.

Gabriel was also subconsciously chanting a spell that he consciously never used before. Let alone using the spell, he had never even heard the spell. It wasn't even available to Gabriel in the Forbidden Book of Necromancy at the moment.
