Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

"In the last thousand years, she must be in a high enough position in the Upper World. We can\'t just directly go to her, without knowing anything else. Your information about her is also superficial," she further stated before explaining. "What we need now is an insider to get more information. And who better than one of the top clans?"

"But the Wester Clan is dangerous! The daughter of the current head of the Wester Clan is a concubine of the Southern General who works right under..." She didn\'t finish her sentence since she knew that everyone else already understood.

The Wester Clan wasn\'t dangerous because of their strength only. However, they were dangerous because they were close to the Southern General.

Even though the Southern General was the weakest amongst the Four Generals of the King of Upper Realm, his strength still wasn\'t anything to scoff at. His strength was said to be at true god level!

"Oh?" Gabriel slowed down, showing some intrigued. "There\'s that link as well? Doesn\'t that just make it better?"

"Better? How? Isn\'t it worse? If the Southern General finds out, we\'re all dead. It\'ll be even worse if he comes with the other Generals."

Jia didn\'t know what Gabriel was thinking about. She was only a guide here. However, even she could feel that it was dangerous to get close to the Wester Clan, especially since the entire upper realm was on high alert against them!

"You\'ll understand when the time comes..."

Gabriel didn\'t speak further. Instead, he brought out a mask out of thin air, placing it over his face.

It was one of the treasures he had refined after taking all the Numens from Lambard. He used the ring of disguise as a base, and added even more of his purest elemental energy along with other treasures.

In the Upper Realm, he was sure that almost everyone already knew his face, at least most people. If he wanted to achieve his goals at the fastest, he couldn\'t reveal his true face so soon since he didn\'t want to play into the hands of the Goddess of Light!

He knew she wanted him to fight the Upper Realm, to weaken both sides. By now, he understood her too well. He didn\'t want to play along, until he dealt with her.

Before coming here, he had also realized another reason why the Goddess of Light granted him her Element.

Even though it was a small fraction of her element, it was still part of her divine power. Thanks to that, no matter where he was, she could sense him. It was as if he was walking with a tracker.

Even though it was only a guess, he was almost certain of it. That was also why he had sealed the Element of Light and the Element of Darkness within his body, cutting off the connection temporarily.

....

Just as Gabriel expected, the Goddess of Light had sensed when he cut off the connection on earth. She couldn\'t believe that he managed to realize her intentions. She was slightly taken aback, not knowing where in the Upper Realm that guy was.

Initially, she was planning on keeping an eye on Gabriel through her Elemental connection with him, and then leaking this information to the four generals one way or another.

However, now she herself doesn\'t know where he was. The only thing she knew was that he was already in the Upper Realm! But which of the four worlds he was in, she didn\'t know!

"That guy... He\'s really careful. But it doesn\'t matter. No matter how much you struggle, you\'ll have to play right into my hands at the end of the day. I\'ll find a way to drag you out of your hole!"

The Goddess of Light clenched her fist, coming up with the next plan of her own.

****

The Wester Clan was one of the five biggest clans in the Upper Realm. It covered a precious piece of land, containing many important resources. However, not even the strongest clans acted arrogant against them, since the Southern General was involved!

The King was the ruler of the entire upper realm. However, he never really left the Central World for some reason. Because of that, the four worlds were managed by the four generals, who didn\'t interfere in each other\'s duties.

In that way, it wasn\'t wrong to say that the Southern General was the ruler of the southern world. He was also the strongest in this world! No one wanted to have the Southern General as their enemy, especially over some resources!

Things were even more complicated since the woman from the Wester Clan who became the Southern General\'s concubine was his favorite out of all his wives! It was said that the Southern General fulfilled most of her wishes, as long as they weren\'t overboard.

Thanks to that connection, the Wester Clan grew more and more arrogant throughout the years, not putting anyone in their eyes. A person acting against them was the same as them acting against the fifth strongest person in the entire Upper Realm after all!

The youngsters of Wester Clan were even worse, doing anything they pleased without worrying about consequences. They killed people who looked at them in a way that they didn\'t like.

The people from the Wester Clan acted as if the region and its people were their properties, kidnapping girls that attracted their fancy in broad daylight.

Almost everyone in the region hated the Wester Clan, but they couldn\'t do anything about it! They could only pray to gods to send someone to save them from this constant torment.

Gabriel had changed his face into something unrecognizable. As for the Goddess of Nature, no one in the upper realm had seen her face other than the traitors. Moreover, the ones who saw Jia with him on earth had already been dealt with, or left behind. Thus, he only hid his face before entering the Wester Clan\'s territory.

The weather in this place was a little cold, but Gabriel\'s was full of warmth, covered in his protective aura.

"This is the region controlled by the Wester Clan. We have to be extremely careful here. Alright?" Jia asked, particularly looking at Gabriel.

However, Gabriel appeared uninterested, looking instead at his surroundings. The place looked very different from the last time he was here. It looked... lifeless. The eyes of the people here also appeared to be dead, as if they were just living without any hope or will to live.
