Gabriel called out the Undead Army that Karyk had created in his first life. This was the army that Karyk had gone far and wide to protect.
He had spent the longest with his army as he had many of his Undead Generals from even before he t any of his acquaintances. Their loyalty to Karyk had never wavered, and similarly, his faith in them never wavered.
Unlike Karyk, Gabriel didn't have such a close bond with them. The only Undead General he cared about was Raphael who had saved his life on many occasions.
Gabriel stood silently before the Undead Generals that he had inherited from Karyk. For a mont, there was only silence.
A sword appeared in Gabriel's hands as he finally stepped towards the Undead Generals.
Seeing Gabriel walk towards them with a sword, Raphael couldn't understand what he was trying to do. However, he held his faith in Gabriel and didn't ask any questions.
Unfortunately, his faith ca crashing down as his pupils dilated the mont he watched Gabriel swing his sword.
At that mont, one of the Undead Generals was cut in two halves. As if that wasn't enough, his aura and soul was also completely destroyed by Gabriel.
All the Undead Generals were stunned about the sudden attack. Yet despite that, they didn't fight back.
They were absolutely loyal to Karyk, and it was Karyk who had told them to support Gabriel and listen to him. They could've at least tried to fight back, but that was no different than going against Karyk's words.
Despite the unwillingness in their eyes, they remained still, even as Gabriel kept killing them one after another.
"What are you doing?" Raphael couldn't control himself as he stepped forward.
"Unfortunately, as he took a step forward, he heard Gabriel's shout, "Stay where you are!"
Raphael's body froze in place. For so reason, he failed to recognise Gabriel anymore. This wasn't the person that he had fought against the world with. He was sothing completely unrecognizable.
Gabriel also didn't stop either. If possible, he also didn't want to kill them for no reason. However, Karyk had cut his connection with him, so he couldn't contact him any other way. This was the only way to send Karyk a ssage, a ssage that he couldn't ignore.
Even the Four Generals of the Upper Realm had been killed by him long ago. If that wasn't the case, he could've at least taken their help to deliver a ssage. In a short ti, all the Undead Generals of Karyk were killed, their existence completely erased.
Gabriel's clothes were stained in blood, making him appear like a demon that had returned from a bloody battlefield.
After killing all the Undead Generals, Gabriel turned around, his gaze landing on Raphael who was still looking at him in disbelief.
"Do you hate for killing your friends?" Gabriel asked a question as he walked back, blood dripping down his sword.
Raphael didn't answer but his eyes were enough for Gabriel to get his answer.
"To save my family, I had to kill yours," Gabriel spoke, not asking for any forgiveness at all. "You can bla for an eternity, but if I was given the sa choice again, I would do the sa."
"You've changed... you've fallen..." Raphael spoke, his voice carrying a hint of disappointnt on what Gabriel had beco.
For a short mont, a strange sadness also flickered in Gabriel's eyes but he imdiately hid it.
Instead, he smiled as he said, "Ti and circumstances change everyone."
As Gabriel was about to continue, he sensed sothing. With a wave of his hands, he opened a portal to the shadow realm right behind Raphel.
His figure moved as he appeared right in front of Raphael with the speed that Raphael couldn't comprehend. Before Raphael could react, Gabriel's kick landed on his chest sending him flying back inside the portal.
Once Raphael entered the shadow realm, the portal closed.
"If I survive, we'll et again," Gabriel softly muttered as he watched the shadow realm portal closed.
He turned and looked at the sky, feeling that presence getting stronger. His expressions once again beca colder as he realized who was coming.
"It looks like my ssage was delivered properly..." Gabriel spoke, observing the sky getting darker.
"He's coming." The Princess also frowned. Although she had never stood before that person before, through the mirror in her world, she had sensed a trace of that man's aura. It was the sa aura that could be felt now.
"I don't feel Aliac's aura. If he's not coming..." she added, revealing a concerned expression.
Although she knew that killing Karyk was the priority, they couldn't forget Aliac either. She thought that with Gabriel, she'd be able to enter the Central World where they would finally take action. But things appeared to be changing.
"We can't fight here! We have to enter the Central World!" she reminded Gabriel. "If we can't, then the deal won't be completed and Ezekiel won't get his life back!"
"The deal I rember was different. I just have to kill Karyk. And if your brother doesn't want to pay later, then I can only kill him as well!" Gabriel replied, not falling for her threats.
He didn't care about the sealed gate or the hatred between Elzerians and Aliac. He didn't care what they had to do. All he cared about was completing the deal that he had accepted.
In the deal, there was no ntion of the Central World. The deal was an exchange of Karyk's life for Ezekiel's life and nothing else.
"You!" The woman clenched her teeth in frustration. Not only was Gabriel rejecting her, but he was also threatening that he would kill her brother. She hated the fact that her brother had provided Gabriel with so much power, including the Talisman to get to him directly and his immortality.
But she knew she couldn't let her emotions get the best of her. Although things had deteriorated from what she thought was going to happen, but still they had to go through with killing Karyk. That was true priority.
She covered her face with a mask just to be safe since Karyk had seen her sister who looked identical to him. Ezekiel also prepared to finally see the so-called brother of Gabriel, the one who could even frighten an Elzerian!
