Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

"What are you saying? How can we give up so easily?!" The First Elder asked, taken aback. 

"Just as I said. We don\'t have a powerful shadow mage. So entering now would only mean the death of our people. So we will give up on the search this time. Not like they can find it anyway," the Family Head explained. 

"You... How can you even think that?! You should\'ve been even angrier?! Why do you look so calm instead?! Have you become silly with anger?"

"That\'s enough. My decision is final. None of you will be entering this time."

The Family Head rarely revealed such fierce expressions. Since the Stein family had cast a barrier, no one could hear what they were saying. No one could even see them properly. 

However, to everyone\'s surprise, when the barrier was removed, the Stein Family Head cast a furious glance at Gabriel. "I hope that the treasures were worth it. Because for as long as you live, you will be chased by the Stein Family. You won\'t have a single place where you\'d be able to hide."

"And if you think the Skyler Family will protect you for all your life, then you\'re too naive!" He spoke. At the same time, the other members of the Stein Family also revealed their killing intent openly. If possible, they would\'ve already attacked Gabriel. 

"I think you don\'t need to worry about me," Gabriel responded. "You should worry more about yourself. How many of your people do you think can come out of the Shadow Garden alive, now that you\'ve threatened me?!"

"We won\'t be entering the Shadow Garden this time. So you won\'t have that opportunity. However, I\'m really furious to see how long you can have that arrogance of yours!\' 

The Stein Family Head turned around, going back to the ship with the other family members. However, he didn\'t leave. 

Instead, the ship still remained there, as if the Stein Clan wanted to make sure that no one found the Legacy. They wanted to stay behind to make sure that everyone else had failed too. 

The Stein Family, which was known to be stubborn, had suddenly given up on exploring the Shadow Garden. Even the Skyler Family Head found it too surprising. However, at the same time, he knew that this was a sensible decision. 

Since the Stein Family was convinced that Gabriel wasn\'t going to betray them, they didn\'t bring any backup shadow mage to support them. And if they entered without one, they were going to have a really hard time even surviving, let alone entering the core region. 

The Skyler Family Head couldn\'t help but laugh out loud, nodding in satisfaction. 

The mockery of the Stein Clan only intensified in that place. However, no one knew that the reality behind this \'betrayal\' was quite different than they were expecting. 

Only two people knew about the true plan— Gabriel and the Stein Family Head. Even Ulesis wasn\'t prone to such information, which was why she appeared to be so heartbroken. 

Her father felt bad keeping her in the dark. However, he knew that it was better if no one else knew the heir. 

Other than the Stein Family, there were many sets of eyes of Gabriel now. Even the woman from the Northern Dragon Clan was looking at him. 

However, her gaze wasn\'t favorable. It was as if she hated traitors, who broke their promises for their greed. That was why her impression of Gabriel was already pretty bad. However, she also felt that the man had something more to him. 

The Northern Dragon Clan was said to have the bloodline of True Dragons. However, even that bloodline of hers was being stimulated as she looked at Gabriel, as if it was somewhat fearful for some reason. This was a strange feeling for her as she hadn\'t experienced this before. 

Even when she was before the Northern General, she didn\'t have this feeling. It was not the suppression of strength, but a suppression of Bloodline. 

She found it quite hard to believe, slightly confused as to what this feeling was. Was it really because of Gabriel? Or did he have some treasure, because of which she was feeling like that?

She didn\'t realize that she wasn\'t the only one who was feeling this strange feeling. In the Beast Region, many overlords had sensed that, since they were overlord beasts with ancient Bloodlines that even scared the four generals. 

It was as if an ancient Beast had walked inside their territory, making their Bloodlines restless, despite their strength. This feeling was safe, but also quite different. 

Gabriel didn\'t realize it, but at the moment, many Overlords of the Beast Region had started paying attention to him, keeping an eye on him. 

Fortunately, they just observed and didn\'t act hostile. They didn\'t attack the group of humans. If they wanted to, they would have already killed them after all. 

Fortunately, Gabriel didn\'t have to stay behind for long. As soon as the barrier around the Shadow Garden weakened, it was time for everyone to enter the Shadow Garden. 

"We paid a lot for you, so you better not disappoint me, or I\'ll kill you myself! Also, you better listen to all my others!" The team of the Skyler Family was being led by the grandson of the Patriarch, who acted as if he was the owner of everyone in his team. 

He walked inside the shadow garden, accompanied by his team members. 

The woman from the Northern Dragon Clan also entered, but not before looking around, noticing that there were many ancient beasts who were observing this place, which didn\'t happen usually.
