Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage - Chapter 923: A wild mutt did it

“Sending someone there… Do you believe it is the right decision?”

In an unknown realm, a voice echoed through the void. It was the meeting hall of Archangels, but it was vast enough to encompass a galaxy within. There were many godlike beings in this meeting, but it was impossible to see any. A normal person couldn’t see them even if they wanted, as seeing their real form was enough to make a person go crazy. They were beings who could create, or destroy. They were the people who could decide which star lived and which star died. They were the Archangels in their real form. They were beings who remained unknown to most of the universe, yet they had the most power. “There is no other choice. Your Servant has failed. They had the person right within their grasp, yet they allowed him to leave.”

Another majestic voice echoed in the great void. There was slight frustration hidden within the voice. “It is clear that leaving the matter of the Forgotten Prince to you was a mistake. We should have sent someone else right from the start. If we had done that… The Forgotten Prince would have been in our grasp.”

“There is no point in arguing.” A third voice chimed in. “The past cannot be changed, what matters now is how we move forward.”

“I agree. I’m not here to argue either. I am just here to ask the Council’s permission to send ‘him’ there. He will bring the Forgotten Prince to us.”

“I don’t agree. We both know what kind of a person ‘he’ is. Instead of capturing the Forgotten Prince, he might destroy that universe entirely if ‘he’ is angered.”

“That’s correct. We all know his temper. After a long time, we found the Forgotten Prince. Only his soul can open that place. If he died, then all those years of search would go to waste!”

The groups of Archangel Council Members were split into two groups. One group agreed with sending the person in question. While the other group opposed it. “We can only send a person once there. And even the cost of that is too high. Are you certain you want to send someone else? This time, we can’t afford failure! Don’t forget!”

“But the chances of failure are higher if we send him! I can’t agree!”

“I don’t need your permission! Even if you don’t agree, ‘he’ will be going there! I have already told him to prepare!”

“Are you defying the Council?!”

“You don’t represent the Council!” The defiant voice rose up. “How many here agree with sending him” there to handle the Forgotten Prince?” Instead of trying to convince everyone, he placed the question before the Council Members. Only with the permission of Majority Members of Council could the doors to the other universe be opened, and that too for only one person to be able to go there. Archangels were too powerful, so they couldn’t go there. At the same time, the slaves had failed them, so they didn’t want to send another slave species either. That’s why, the suggestion was to send ‘him’, who was an Archangel but at the same time, not an Archangel!

He was someone who had the blood of Archangels in his body, but at the same time, he had another Blood. The blood of a slave species. That’s why, he never received much attention from the Archangels, until he started showing his talent. Despite not being a true Archangel, he was fierce and could crush anyone under his feet. Still, he was looked down on. His entire life, he was called a lowlife and hated by many Archangels. This hate made him develop a temper. Some even said that he had gone crazy who didn’t listen to instructions. He was someone who didn’t care about the rules. He was as strong as a real Archangel, despite not being a pure Archangel. That’s why the cost of sending him down was weaker. An Archangel couldn’t be sent there as the fate shackles could hurt them. But the cost of sending him was much less. Even if he died on the way, there was no problem for the Archangels that wanted to send him. When the proposal was put forth, the place went completely silent. All around the galaxy, stars started rising. These stars were the answers from Council Members. Some stars were bright, which meant that the Archangel agreed with the suggestion. Meanwhile some stars were dark, which meant that they were opposed to the suggestion. In a short time, the voting was complete. And the number of bright stars was higher than the number of dark stars by just one! “It looks like the decision has been made,” The Archangel who put forth the proposal stated. “Fine. Send him. But if he fails, you will have to pay for it. If the Forgotten Prince dies instead of being captured and brought here, you will be responsible.”

“I’m different from you. I can take responsibility for my failures. But when are you going to take responsibility for your failure?”

“Enough with the arguments!” The other Constellation intervened. “Since the decision is made, this shall be it for the meeting.”

“Make preparations for sending him. And make sure he knows why he’s being sent there. Tell him to keep his anger in control and not destroy that universe. Otherwise…”

One after another, the Archangels started leaving the meeting. The universe returned to the usual silence like never before…..

In another place, there stood a dark haired man. His fists were covered in divine blood, but the blood didn’t belong to him. Instead, it was the blood of a young boy lying at his feet. The boy had Archangel-like wings on his back that were stained in blood. “You wild mut, my father won’t let you go!”

“Your father?” The green haired man smiled. “Since he won’t let me go, why don’t I give him more reasons?”

The half blood archangel revealed a devilish glint as he placed his foot on the back of the Archangel. He grabbed the wings of the Archangel with both his hands and started pulling on them. “Tell your father, a wild mutt did it!”
