Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Screams kept coming from the basement as more and more Head Priests died. They didn't even know what was happening around them as the dark mist not only blinded them but also trapped their movements.

With each scream, a fear was instilled in the other Head Priests. If they couldn't even see the enemy, how could they even attack? They hadn't seen a spell like that in the past. In fact, they hadn't even heard about this, let alone knowing how to counter that.

Since they were in closed space, the efficiency of this spell only increased as the dark mist couldn't be pushed aside. In an open setting, they could've at least countered this spell to some extent. This dark mist didn't even burn with the flames!

The only things that could be burnt were the shackles that were made with the mist, but Gabriel's vision wasn't obstructed. Whoever broke the shackles, he killed them directly, without even giving them an opportunity.

There was only one person he avoided killing... the person who was closest to the stairs. Even as that person broke the shackles, Gabriel didn't kill him. If anything, he ignored that person entirely.

At the same time, that person didn't dare attack Gabriel either. After so many people were killed here, he had already lost all hope. He didn't know who the masked man was, but his spells were unorthodox and in a sudden situation like this, he didn't believe he could change the situation.

If anything, the Head Priest who managed to free himself had only a single thought! It was that he had to find a way to escape at any cost, and get this information to the Holy Priest. He knew that if there was one person who could change the situation, it was Lerian!

After initial struggles, he found the stairs. He couldn't see the stairs, yet he started climbing, occasionally even stumbling along the way.

The screams kept echoing downstairs but the Head Priest didn't look back. He doesn't realize that someone was already keeping his eyes on them. Even as Gabriel killed the other Head Priests swiftly, his main attention was only on him.

The Head Priest came to the ground floor, breathing heavily. His entire body was bleeding but he couldn't care less. He rushed out of the Church hastily.

As the Head Priest rushed out, he noticed the Flaming Tower which was still the same. However, there was an opening in the tower.

Usually, he could've found that opening suspicious, but since his mind was clouded, he didn't think much. He snuck out of the opening and kept rushing away.

After coming out of the tower of flames, he cast a Flight Spell, creating wings of Flames and rushed away in the direction of Arecia! He had to inform the Lord of Flames as soon as he could! He didn't want the Lord of Flames to fall for this trap and kill innocents only to then be blamed later.

He didn't want the enemy's plan to succeed! Moreover, he wanted Lerian to return to kill Gabriel and all the enemies who dared to attack them!

"Are you sure it's right to let him leave?" A young man appeared near the entrance of the Church of the Flames as the opening in the wall of flames closed.

"It's a pity to lose such a precious material, but it's for the best," Gabriel appeared behind Raphael. His hands were covered in blood, but his face was completely calm. "As a Head Priest, his speed is much faster than an ordinary Priest."

"Moreover, it would be more believable for Lerian to think that a Head Priest managed to escape after coming in contact with me, compared to an ordinary member of the Church escaping," he further stated, explaining more of his thoughts.

"Stay here. I'll be right back." He turned around and went back inside again.

Gabriel entered the Church of Flames and started using his Army of Undead spell, increasing the number of his Death Knights. This time, he only focused on the Head Priests and didn't create a weaker undead.

After he finished, in total, he had twelve Head Priest level Death Knights, all of whom went through the same evolution. Other than that, there was one ordinary Priest level Death Knight.

"Search all the higher floors. Get any treasures you can find back to me," Gabriel commanded all the Death Knights to make the search faster. He was here. He couldn't just pretend to be here to kill the Head Priests. He decided to take some treasures as well.

Sending the Death Knights upstairs, he personally went downstairs to check. As for Raphael, he was left to guard the entrance to make sure that no one could enter the Church of Flames until he came out.

The Death Knights didn't have their personality memories but they still possessed some common knowledge which wasn't wiped by the spell. They still knew what treasures were and what they had to gather

All of them checked every room thoroughly, gathering all the Spirit Crystals, spell books, Staffs and other precious treasures that they could find.

The higher floors were reserved for low ranking members of the Church. Meanwhile the lower floors were where the Head Priests stayed. He personally checked the place, keeping everything in his Storage Space.

After going through some ordinary rooms, he eventually reached a place which had much bigger doors. The doors of this place were even thicker than every other door in the Church so breaking it was almost impossible.

Fortunately, the Head Priests had to rush out to check the situation so they didn't close the door properly, leaving it unlocked.

Gabriel simply pushed the door open, entering the Forbidden Hall of the Sacred Church of Flames. Other than the Head Priests and Lerian, no one was allowed to come here. If someone was said even by accident, they were to be executed.

Gabriel had a feeling that this was the place where he was going to find the real treasures!

Pushing the doors open, he took his first step inside the ball.

"Urgh!"

As soon as he stepped inside, he felt the pressure on his body multiplying by many times. It was as if an entire mountain was pressing over his body. The pressure was different from the pressure of the earring as it even affected his surroundings.

He couldn't even resist as he was pushed down on his knees. Cracks developed on the ground around him as the mysterious force pushed down even more on him!
