Chapter 1027: The Kiss of Death

Chapter 1027: The Kiss of Death

Karyk's shadows engulfed her, silencing her magic. The darkness wrapped around her body, forcefully pulling her inside the abyss, despite her fierce resistance.

She was the second person that was sent to the abyss while she was still alive, left to slowly be devoured in the realm of neither.

The moment she was pulled in the darkness, she felt her surroundings change. The suffocating darkness that kept her restricted was gone. However, something much worse had taken its place.

It was as if she was sent to a different space where all she could see was a dark space spread as far as her eyes could see. In that space, she felt like she was being watched while something unknown was trying to devour more of her strength.

The feeling of being watched became stronger as she started feeling weaker. She couldn't even feel her connection with her world. She didn't know where she was, but she understood that she had to get out of here if she wanted to survive.

She had to break out of here, even if she had to damage the source of her life. Anything was better than dying here.

She conjured the staff made from world tree, a one of a long artifact that only the Fairy Lord had. She didn't even get the opportunity to use it against Karyk as every time she used it, it contained her life source.

Now that everything was already gone, she held no hesitation. She raised the staff, but before she could utter a single word, a hand came from behind her, closing her mouth.

Hands came from below as well, holding her ankles.

Shocked, she looked down. What she saw beneath her was even more surprising for her as it was none other than her daughter who had been killed much before her.

Her daughter's skin was dark, made purely from abyss, but it was impossible to not recognise her. Unfortunately, she couldn't feel any sense of life in those eyes of hers.

After finishing, he sat on the throne where only the Fairy Lord was allowed to sit, prepared to accept the memories of the Fairy Lord.

In this place, he didn't have to worry about anyone disturbing him. Only the fairies could enter and leave this island, and all of them were gone now.

He was the only person now who could open a Portal to the city of fairies, making it his personal domain.

As her memories flowed into him, he felt some emotions, but it was quickly drowned in the sea of his fractured mind.

Karyk called forth his Undeads, telling them to start repairing the city. Rather, he told them to remake this city which was going to be their home from now on.

The city was to be remade as per Karyk's will, leaving behind no remnants of the fairies of the forgotten era. An entire high species was made to go extinct by a single person that appeared in this world only a few months ago.

As the time trickled away, the memories of the fairy lord were fully absorbed by him. At the same time, the undead mages kept working on reforming the city.

From this moment onwards, this wasn't the city of fairies but the city of abyss, where only those with the aura of death could live.

After taking the memories, Karyk left the Palace. He looked at the bright sky that was shining above the city of darkness.

He didn't ask anything, nor did the silence of the fallen city offer any answers. Karyk knew that his journey was far from over.

He turned away from the ruins, opening another portal with a flick of his hand. The path ahead was shrouded in uncertainty, but one thing was clear: there was no turning back.

With one last glance at the desolate city, he stepped through the portal, vanishing into the unknown.
