Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage

Chapter 645 645: The God Hunter

?

Ezekiel's pitch black eyes kept shedding tears, as he tightly embraced the body of his father. 

However, as if not letting the moment last, Aizen waved his hand. The chains tightened around Ezekiel, pulling his body back. 

His body was once again pulled back, hanging in the air by the shackles of a High God. At the same time, his father's body dropped to the ground. 

"I thought a lot about what your punishment shall be. However, I felt that this wasn't enough either. I want you to suffer for as long as you live, unable to even take your own life."

The men rose in the air, moving closer to Ezekiel. 

He opened the mouth of Ezekiel, placing a small fruit in his mouth. The fruit melted in Ezekiel's mouth, entering his body. 

"Treat this as my gift to you. This is a fruit to grant a mortal additional hundred years of life... This should be enough for you to watch your father rot, and think about your mistakes..."

He lightly patted Ezekiel's cheeks, like he was an elder, playing with a kid.

After finishing, he moved back, and disappeared. He left Ezekiel's father's body right before him, bleeding. 

Ezekiel's bloodshot eyes couldn't even bear to see his father like this. Every moment of his existence was painful for him... A pain that felt like dying a thousand times every second. 

Days passed by, but Ezekiel remained motionless like a statue. The memories of his past actions, and his regret, all haunted him relentlessly. His mind was a battlefield, and his thoughts were the soldiers fighting against each other. He didn't know how to escape, how to find inner peace. It was his personal hell. 

Ezekiel felt like a prisoner to his own mind, constantly reliving the same painful moments over and over again. In all those moments, one thing was common... They were caused by the gods that they treated like guests...

Aizen returned to the realm of gods, and continued his work. 

A few decades passed away, and he had completely forgotten about the incident with Ezekiel. With time, he climbed even higher in the Council of Gods. 

The Realm of Gods didn't even know that an incident like that had happened. And even if they knew, they wouldn't have cared. 

Over a hundred years passed, and it was clear to Aizen that the mortal who dared to stab him once upon a time had already died. He didn't even try checking. 

In this time, he had a child of his own... Everything was going good for him, until one day everything changed. 

A terrifying news spread, that the God of Death had died suddenly! No one knew how a being like that died, yet this sent a wave of shock amongst all gods. 

However, that wasn't all. In the next few weeks, more and more news came... News about more gods dying. 

It was as if all the Gods that were outside the Realm of Gods were being hunted by someone... Or something. 

Moreover, one thing was common amongst all these deaths. Some ash was always found on their forehead, as if they were the ashes of someone's body being burned. 

Moreover, on the bodies, one letter was carved each time. 

The first letter discovered on the chest of the God of Death was 'A', the second was 'I', and the third was Z."

Like that, the first five bodies each had a character, which ultimately made up one name alone... Aizen!

The deaths of the gods continued, yet no one knew who was behind that. How were they killing these gods without possessing Divinity of their own? No one knew the answer. All they knew was that this was associated with Aizen in some way!

The High Council of Gods interrogated Aizen multiple times, trying to find something. Many gods that were killed were from the High Council as well, after all. 

Unfortunately for them, they couldn't get any concrete answers. Throughout the hundreds of years, there wasn't a single event that Aizen had made. He had taken so many lives that even he didn't know who it could be. 

For the most part, he believed that it was the work of another god, who was jealous of his achievements and was targeting him. Other than gods, no one should've been able to kill another god. 

All the gods were starting to live in the fear of the unknown, not knowing who was targeting them. Most of the gods didn't leave the Realm of Gods alone, always traveling in a group of two. Only the truly confident ones traveled alone. 

No matter how many gods left the Realm of Gods, there was one who never left. It was Aizen, always hiding in the God of Realm, feeling as if it was the most risky for him to leave. 

Unfortunately, he soon realized that he wasn't safe in the Realm of Gods either, when one day, someone finally invaded the Realm of Gods. 

It was Ezekiel, holding a god by his throat. His body was larger, and he was nothing like he used to be in the past. 

He waited for Aizen to leave, but when he didn't, he decided to enter the Realm of Gods himself!

He captured one of the Highest Ranking Gods alive, and forced that man to open a portal straight to the depths of the Realm of Gods. 

Only Highest Ranking Gods could open the portal to the Realm of Gods, that could bring another person with them. The rest of the gods could only open portals that allowed them and other gods to pass through, which was useless for Ezekiel. 

The day Ezekiel invaded the Realm of Gods, the entire place was turned upside down. Ezekiel was like a completely demonic being, with a presence that was darker than night itself. 

He entered the mansion of Aizen... He entered the house of the person who took his everything, with the intention of taking everything from him!

That was the day when the Gods finally saw the demon, who was known as the God Hunter! They finally realized just what kind of Nightmare he was! And they also understood why this guy was able to kill gods without Divinity!
