Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

1019  Chapter 1019: Hunting

The Angel was sent to the abyss while he was still alive. All that was left to heal was his head when he was swallowed by the abyss. As soon as he entered the abyss, he felt that even his divine healing had stopped. He couldn't feel anything here. He couldn't even feel his connection to his Bloodline. He was like the lifeless Puppet who could only see the endless darkness as his body floated in the abyss. While he was still alive, he watched the abyss devour his body and tear apart his consciousness. In the abyss, the painful cries of the Angel echoed, but no one was here to hear him. His face was distorted in pain. Even though angels were trained to control their pain, this pain was too much for him. He could feel his body, soul and mind being ripped apart as some unknown force tried to steal everything from him. In this moment, he wished that he would have been dead before he was tossed into this tormenting hell. There was no exit in this abyss. All that accompanied him was a slow and painful death that was stripping him bare of his memories and knowledge. Every second felt like an eternity as death couldn't come sooner. ....

Back in the city of Titans, Karyk landed on the ground, quite pleased with the battle. He wasn't sure if the battle was easy because the angel that came this time was weak or if it was because he had grown stronger. Although it was somewhat underwhelming because of his high expectations, the gains weren't insignificant. Not only could he take the abilities of the Angel, but he was also gaining previous data from devouring the Angel. The marks on his body had again started changing as extra characters appeared on his back. The characters were small, but each of those characters consisted of information as large as the universe. Karyk returned to the Royal Palace. He was done with the angel, and only had to wait for the devouring to be completed. He was also waiting for stronger angels to arrive so he could devour them as well. This city was a trap for the Angels. When one went missing, it was only a matter of time before another came to investigate. He didn't want to meet the high council members or powerful angels yet, but he was sure that they weren't going to come here when they had so many people under them. While he waited, he let the devoured memories of the Angel being transferred to his mind. His thoughts were filled with the memories of the Angel he had killed, but strangely enough, the memories didn't stop even when he was sent to the abyss. Throughout the angel's memories, Karyk saw what happened when he was sent to the abyss and how he was tormented. This was the first time he saw how his abyss devoured people as he didn't send any living beings before this. Karyk also gained more abilities of the Angel that he had devoured, which even surprised him. He didn't expect an angel to know so many abilities that came from their divine bloodline. He didn't have the Angel Bloodline but he was still able to use the abilities. The information related to the Bloodline was imprinted on his body, which made these skills work. Were these marks even capable of containing Bloodlines? This was something he hadn't thought of before, but now that he did, it appeared even more impressive. For the next few days, Karyk assimilated all the information that he could. Not long after he had finished, another guest arrived.

It wasn't someone sent by the high council of angels, but someone from the family of the person Karyk had devoured. The person was older and stronger than the angel Karyk devoured before, but the battle appeared even easier. Accompanied by the memories of the Angel, he knew all the tricks of this person He also used the abilities of the Angels which became even more perfect after removal of their flaws by his abyss using information from other Bloodlines. The battle only lasted a few minutes before the second angel was killed and sent to the abyss. Within these few minutes, half the city had been destroyed, but Karyk couldn't care less about this city. More days passed and when the two angels sent here didn't return, the family sent even more angels. This time, it wasn't just one angel but a group of warrior class angels. This was a battle that proved much harder for Karyk as the number of angels was higher than his expectations. The remaining half of the city had been destroyed in the battle, turning into a barren land. Looking at the scene, no one could imagine that once upon a time, a beautiful city of Titans used to exist in this place. The battle was hard, but when Karyk called forth his undead army that was made of the titans, beasts and angels, the battle also became one sided. His army kept the angels busy, allowing him to deal with them one after another. In that one day, Karyk devoured twenty angels, increasing the number of his undead angels by twenty. His army became even stronger and so did his knowledge. He was able to learn a lot about the city of angels as well as the identity of Aexin who was sent to Elzeira to kill him. Karyk wanted to fish for more angels here, but he realized that things were becoming more dangerous. With the disappearance of so many angels, it wasn't unlikely for a high council member to arrive personally. He wasn't sure if he could face them as the memories of these angels didn't have any information about their strength.

All he felt from their memories was that they couldn't even raise their heads in front of the high Council members. The difference between an angel and a high council member was even larger than the difference between an ordinary titan and the Titan King.
