Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

1093 Chapter 1093: Should I drag him down?

Karyk didn't know how to react to the revelation. He had been trapped in an endless cycle of time, living the same day again and again without even realizing it. Or rather, he forgot everything the moment his day reset.

Everything finally started to make sense. This was the reason the young time lord wasn't scared of him. Even if he brought all the Aetherian Beasts, he couldn't kill him faster than he could reverse time.

Even if he used poison, the man could escape through time reversal. The ability to control time was worse than he had imagined.

"Why didn't you leave this world instead of going through this endless cycle again and again?" Karyk asked the young time lord.

The young man had tried everything, from hiding to asking for help from the other outsiders. None of that had changed his fate of encountering Karyk.

There was only one thing that he hadn't tried, which was escaping from this world. If the young man had left this world at the start of the day, there was no way he would have encountered him.

So why? Why would he rather stay here, going through this endless cycle instead of escaping?

"I can't leave this world without getting Aether. If I did, all my efforts would be for nothing," the young man answered, not even trying to hide the existence of Aether from Karyk.

He already knew that Karyk was looking for the same thing. They had already gone through this conversation before.

"Do you know where Aether is?" Karyk asked, but the man simply shook his head.

"I don't know where it is, and even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you." He felt slightly relieved. It didn't look like Karyk was going to try to kill him in this life. He was a lot more cautious.

"Why don't you ask your friends? They never answer me anyway." He left only a single hint behind and dragged the giant angel corpse away while gesturing for his followers to come with him.

Karyk was left behind at the border of the inner realm, watching the young man leave. His expression was unreadable, but he was clearly quite troubled.

One thing became clear: He couldn't touch that young man unless he was absolutely certain that he could prevent the time reversal.

He was concerned about that ability, but he was also greedy for it. In his eyes, the ability and Bloodline had suddenly gained even more allure. He had to take the man's abilities, at any cost.

Having an ability like that was no different than having multiple extra lives. Moreover, if he had to go against the Overlords, he was going to need as many extra lives as he could possibly gain.

"I need something that can stop his time reversal. But what could I use? In the last forty nine tries, I used almost every bloodline I had stolen, but I couldn't stop him."

Lost in thoughts, Karyk followed the group from a distance. He had bloodlines that came with many useful abilities, but none of them were useful enough in this matter.

He needed something more. He needed something that he hadn't used before, that could overwhelm the control of the young time lord.

"I need a place where his time reversal can't affect me."

Karyk had seen his past failures through the mirror of memories. It made him understand his enemies more, especially his own weaknesses.

He was sure that the answer was somewhere in those memories, something that had escaped his attention. He needed something that he hadn't used before.

"A treasure that can immediately kill him?" he thought, remembering that there was indeed a weapon like that. But it was something that even he couldn't use.

Just touching that weapon alone was enough to kill him, let alone using it to attack.

"Can I lure him into touching that sword?" he thought, his eyes regaining some shine. But even he knew that it was easier said than done.

The young time lord had to be a fool if he couldn't sense the danger from the sword. He shouldn't be tricked into touching that sword.

"Should I drag him into the abyss while he is still alive? Inside the abyss, the time reversal would lose all meaning. But it takes time to drag living things inside. That's enough for him to use time reversal."

Karyk maintained his distance, while trying to come up with a feasible plan. Unfortunately, all of the plans had one flaw or the other.

"Young Lord, do you know him?" In the distance, the young time lord was being accompanied by the group that he had brought back to life.

They had heard some of the conversation between Karyk and their young lord. Something was different about their conversation. They didn't feel like friends, but also not like enemies.

"Is it alright for him to follow us? Should I send him away?" the girl asked the young time lord.

"Don't ever try. You will die before you know it. I don't want to waste any more strength to bring you back to life." The time lord rejected right away.

Even if he could bring them back to life, it took a lot of effort. Even if he didn't show it on the surface, he was completely exhausted.

Just escaping from the core region with the corpse of the Angel took a lot of effort, let alone coming across Karyk.

Every time he used time reversal, a little of his lifespan was used. He had already wasted a lot, to save his own life. He didn't want to waste any more to save these people.

In fact, the only reason he even saved them right now was to convince Karyk that he could reverse time, and the things in his memories were true.

"Bring back to life?" Not only the girl, but the others were also shocked.

They didn't remember dying at the hands of Karyk, let alone coming back to life. They couldn't help but look back at the young man, wondering just what exactly happened that they didn't remember.
