Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

He kept the bodies of the Emperors back, still not losing hope that in the future, he might be able to use that. All he had to do was find what was preventing him from being able to call their souls into these bodies.

Once finished sending the bodies back, he stood amidst the undead nobles that he had revived. All of them were absolutely loyal to him, but at the same time, they were also sentient.

"Do any of you know of a method to leave this place without having to fight the people outside?" Karyk asked the undead around him, hoping one of them might know of something.

Unfortunately for him, the undead shook their heads. They had never been to this place when they were alive, so none knew much about the architecture.

"In that case, it looks like there is only one answer." Karyk let out a sigh, gazing towards the door. He was completely exhausted. So the only way for him to leave was to use his undead army.

He sent half of the undead that he had created back to the Realm of the Dead, only leaving the remaining half behind to help with what was to come.

He wanted to leave, but at the same time, he didn't want to lose all the undead. In the end, he decided to sacrifice half of them.

"Let's begin." Letting out a sigh, he stepped towards the door, outside where he was certain an entire army was waiting for him.

As he reached out his hand to open the door, he stopped before his fingers could even touch the door. His eyes noticed the thin thread tied to his wrist.

"This..." He retracted his hand, thinking of something. With the General dead, his connection with the outside world was cut off. But he still had a connection with the Celestial Dynasty Empress.

He quickly made his decision and pulled on the thread, sending a message to the Empress for assistance. He didn't even need her to personally come. All he needed was for her to deliver a message to the Puppet Master and his citizens.

He decided to use the Celestial Empress as a communication device as she was further connected to the Puppet Master.

....

"What? You're in the Royal City, and inside their tomb?" The Celestial Empress was shocked as soon as she heard about Karyk's whereabouts.

She had long been curious where Karyk was going when he left the city. However, she simply assumed that he was going back to his world for some time.

Even in her wildest dreams, she never thought that this guy would be daring enough to enter the den of the dragon without the slightest fear.

"I'm surprised you're still alive despite entering the Royal City. Not only that, you even entered their sacred place." The Celestial Empress still found it somewhat hard to believe, but she knew there was no reason to doubt him.

"Now is not the time to be impressed. I need some help from you." Karyk stated as he stood with the support of the wall. "Do you know of a way I can leave this place without having to engage in battle?"

"You think I'm some god that can make the impossible happen?" The Divine Empress rolled her eyes. "It's impossible for you to even teleport within the city."

"The only way you can leave is if you break the barrier over the city and then you'll be able to use a portal to leave," the woman suggested. She didn't know that Karyk had already broken one such portal in the past, so she thought she was suggesting the impossible.

"I would've if I wasn't completely exhausted," Karyk answered. He could barely use a small amount of his strength at this point as he had already used up everything he had been keeping, all to bring back the dead.

The Tomb was filled with the aura of death which made it the best place for him to perform this ceremony and he took that opportunity to awaken them here to increase his chances of success.

Unfortunately, even after all that, he had failed in awakening the Emperor level dead. He felt as if he had made a mistake by selecting this place, but it was too late to think about it now.

The Celestial Empress didn't believe that Karyk could open the barrier. She simply thought he was exaggerating because he truly didn't understand how strong that barrier was.

"There are two more methods for you to leave that place. One is for you to kill your way out, but that seems unlikely as well," the woman commented. "However, that's your best option."

"I didn't message you to ask you about something so obvious! I contacted you because I want you to send the Puppet Master to the Royal City! I need him to create a distraction for me!" Karyk exclaimed, getting to the main point.

The Celestial Empress scoffed at the suggestion. "You think I would make him do that? I would never sacrifice him for you. If he did that, he would be destroyed."

"Moreover, he can't do that in the first place since he had to stay within a certain range of me or he would die. The Royal City is too far." Novel Fire - novelfire.net

The Celestial Empress made it clear that she had no thought about following through.

"What about your Undead Beasts?" Karyk asked, still keeping his patience.

"Same law applies to them." The woman calmly responded. "If they go too far from me, they lose my protection and die. It would've been different if I was able to leave this city freely, but as things are now, your suggestions are impossible."

Karyk scratched the back of his head in frustration. "You know, you're as useful as a piece of cardboard currently. What can you even do other than saying that you can't?'

He took a calm breath, trying to calm himself. "Fine. If you can't send your people, I want you to send mine. Contact the Puppet Master and tell him."

"I'm afraid that's not possible either," the woman shook her head.

"You know you're really starting to upset me now. At this point, it feels like you're doing it intentionally." Karyk clenched his fists.
