Chapter 718 718: The Child
Three months passed…
The Rebel Gods in the Realm of Gods waited for Gabriel’s return for a long time, yet there was no sign. They could only wonder how the training of Gabriel was going.
These three months had been very peaceful for the Realm of Gods. Even though the Rebel Gods prepared to be attacked at any time, nothing significant happened.
With so much time in their hands, they were allowed to create many better defensive mechanisms, and also increase the range and strength of the existing mechanism.
The Three Months had been the best months of their lives. Even though they had to constantly worry about being attacked, but they were finally at their home world and could do anything that they wanted.
They all felt grateful for Gabriel. It all happened because of them. Even though they wondered why the Gods and Caen didn’t attack them to take back the Realm of Gods, they convinced themselves that it was because of Ezekiel’s presence. Even the arrogant gods had to be careful because of him.
For the entire three months, the old Rebel God remained inside the library, going after every book like he had gone crazy.
His eyes made him appear as if he hadn’t slept in a long time at all. But it was a sacrifice he was willing to make, for he knew that the knowledge hidden within those ancient texts held the key to solving his biggest curiosity.
The biggest question that was plaguing his mind was about Gabriel’s origin, which even Gabriel told him to find out. On the first day itself, he had found some clues in the library in one of the books but it wasn’t enough.
Using that one hint, he wanted to find a particular piece of information. Unfortunately, the Library was huge, and he only had one hand now, which delayed him a lot in the process.
Suddenly, he dropped to his knees. The book in his hand dropped to the ground. His eyes revealed disbelief.
“It can’t be… Is it really possible?” he muttered. “But the time matches what Gabriel told me about…”
To find his origin, Gabriel had to first find the origin of Karyk. That’s why, he told the old man to find out about all the incidents that could be related to him at the time of his supposed birth.
He didn’t tell the old man that this information was about Karyk and not entirely about him. If anything, the old man didn’t even know that there was another person called Karyk, who was like the origin of Gabriel.
“Thousands of years ago… During the battle between Ezekiel and Chaos… This information…” The old man was in disbelief.
In the book, the history was mentioned which not a single person in the realm of Gods knew about, except the Writer who could use Clairvoyance.
The Writer didn’t tell anyone about this to anyone, and just mentioned it subtly in one of the books, and no one found it.
The Old Man couldn’t grasp it all. He was in disbelief. How was it possible? Even if he wanted to, he didn’t think he could tell others, because the history was so complicated and extraordinary.
According to the information, when Ezekiel attacked the Realm of Gods, most of the powerful High Council Members were out for a meeting with the Ancestral God that Chaos killed long in the future before disappearing himself.
Since the Realm of Gods didn’t have most of the strongest High Council Members, it was the weakest it was ever left. And that’s also when Ezekiel invaded the Realm of Gods and attacked and killed anyone he could find.
At that moment, only one person was able to stop him. The person that no one had paid attention to, until then. It was Chaos, who intervened to save the Goddess of Reincarnation.
At that moment, he fought Ezekiel, and dragged him away from the Realm of Gods. Most people had thought that he killed Ezekiel, but no one really saw what happened.
However, in the book, the unseen reality was mentioned.
It was said that even Chaos wasn’t able to kill Ezekiel at that moment for some reason. Ezekiel was undying! That’s why, Chaos dragged Ezekiel inside the Abyss, and sealed him there forever.
That’s where it was supposed to end. But when Chaos came out of the Abyss after sealing Ezekiel in the Abyss, he wasn’t alone.
According to the Writer of the Book who used Clairvoyance, Chaos had a child in his arms at that time.
The old Rebel God couldn’t believe it. How could Chaos find a child inside the Abyss? How could a child enter the Abyss and survive in the first place? He had so many questions but the book didn’t answer.
The Book only mentioned that the child was frail, and its breathing was weak, as if it could die at any moment.
Worrying about the response of people about an unknown child who was brought out of the Abyss, Chaos didn’t tell anyone about it. He knew that if he told anyone, the others were going to try to kill the child.
For some reason, Chaos, who was known for his cold nature, couldn’t get himself to do that. He was connected to the Abyss as well.
He knew what it was like for people to unnecessarily hate them, since his own father hated him because his abilities were related to the Abyss.
Unfortunately for him, the child didn’t look like he could survive. As more time passed, his breathing became even weaker. His life essence was weak, to the point that his heart was barely beating once every few minutes.

Over four months had passed since Karyk entered the Ancestral Temple’s Graveyard.
In these four months, he loved from one tombstone to another tombstone, absorbing all the information that he could.
It started from memories of mortals, moving onto memories of Immortals and eventually, the memories of Gods that had been killed.
