Strongest Necromancer System Chapter 1001: Did You Have An Eventful Night?
Previously on Strongest Necromancer System...
"What is it, darling?"
Hesabeth ran her hand over Jason’s cheek as she asked this, and Jason let out a long breath before he told Hesabeth about the celestial that his brother planned to release soon! As an overlord, Hesabeth had a right to know about what was coming for them, and Jason could see the cogs turning in Hesabeth’s head as she listened to the completely insane warning!
"A-Are you certain of this news, darling? Where did you learn about something like this?"
Hesabeth actually stammered in shock for the first time in decades, and Jason realised she must’ve been really shaken up by the news. Jason ran a hand over his chin and said:
"It was from my father. He left me a letter warning me about my brother, and he said my brother stole the Key to the Cage holding back a celestial a few years ago. I have a feeling Gregory’s going to use it soon. I just don’t know when or where, but we might be faced with another Celestial Hunt very soon."
Hesabeth felt a feeling of dread rising in her chest when she heard the term Celestial! Hesabeth had lived through multiple centuries by now, so she had already heard stories about the Celestials and how dangerous they were. Although C’thlyanu was friendly with mortals, there were many Celestials out there that brought nothing but destruction with their mere presence alone! If a Celestial was really unleashed on the world, then they could lose hundreds of billions of lives in the coming battle!
Hesabeth asked Jason if he knew where Gregory was hiding. If Jason could find out the general location, then Hesabeth could send her soldiers together with Jason’s Legion to apprehend Gregory once and for all!
Jason shook his head.
"I’m trying to find where he is, but it’ll take some time to search the entire Primordial Veil."
Hesabeth hummed as she considered everything Jason said. It was true that it would take a long time to search the entire boundary of the Primordial Veil, but Hesabeth had heard rumours recently that the Angels from the second domain were carrying out a mission to investigate a possible tear in the veil. Hesabeth told Jason about this, and Jason frowned as he said:
"Did they find anything in the investigation?"
Hesabeth shook her head.
"I don’t know yet. They haven’t brought back the data. But if there was a disturbance at the veil, there’s a chance that it was from your brother rather than the Primordials. I think the second domain is as good a place as any to start searching."
Jason felt an excitement go through his heart when he heard this, and Jason realised that Hesabeth was right! Jason’s issue with the Avarans had only begun recently, and the investigation by the angels in the second domain was also recent, so there was a chance that the two cases were related! Jason gave Hesabeth a big hug and thanked her with a wide smile!
"That was a great help, babe. Thank you."
Hesabeth blushed as she wrapped her hand around Jason happily, and Hesabeth told him that it was fine.
"It’s what I’m here for, darling. If you ever have any worries, then just let me know. I’ll help you with everything I have."
Jason pulled back, and he couldn’t stop the feeling of love that filled his heart as he thought about his girls. All three of them had been a big help to Jason over the past few days, and Jason knew that without them he would’ve been consumed by the worries that plagued his mind! Hesabeth let out a small hum, and she said.
"I take it you haven’t told my sisters about this yet, have you?"
Hesabeth could tell that Gina and Riyala likely didn’t know about the danger either, and Jason grunted.
"No, not yet. I don’t want to bother them about it since I’m not even sure of what’s about to happen. And Gina doesn’t need the stress because of the baby. Let’s find out if Gregory actually plans to free the Celestial before we tell them."
Hesabeth nodded.
"Very well, darling. I’ll follow your lead."
Jason smiled and gave Hesabeth another soft kiss. The way things were now, Jason could finally begin searching for his brother while also focusing on getting stronger! Jason would make sure nothing hurt his family no matter what! If Jason had to kill his own brother to protect what he loved, then that was exactly what Jason would do.

[The Next Day]
The morning sunlight filtered through the window of Hesabeth’s bedroom and fell on Jason’s face as he watched the kingdom with a peaceful expression. Behind him, his three girls were sleeping peacefully on the bed, and Jason knew that they wouldn’t wake up for at least another hour. After helping Hesabeth with her work the previous night, Jason and Hesabeth had both come back to the room, and they ended up having another round of sex with both Riyala and Gina this time. Jason could tell from how needy his girls were that they really missed him.
’I really don’t want to leave. I wish we could just stay here forever without any worries.’
Jason let out a calm sigh as this thought crossed his mind, and Jason shook his head to get rid of them. Jason knew he had to leave no matter what. There was a storm brewing in the future, and Jason needed enough power to weather that storm if he wanted to protect his family.
Knock~ Knock~
A faint knocking echoed from the bedroom door, and Jason turned around and told Stella to come in.
Stella walked into the room with a calm air around her. Stella looked completely refreshed after a proper night’s sleep, and she put her hands together on her stomach and bowed to Jason respectfully.
"Good morning, Master. I hope you had an eventful night."
Jason huffed in amusement when he heard this, and he told Stella that his night was fine. It was still a little strange for Jason to compare the current Stella to the loud and excitable woman he had met all those months ago, but Jason couldn’t deny that Stella had really mastered her role as his maid! Jason turned to look out the window again, and he felt Stella walking closer to stand beside him before she said.
"Is there something on your mind, master? Perhaps I can help you with it?"
Jason hummed quietly, and he shook his head with a smile.
"No, it’s nothing. I’m just... enjoying the peace and quiet. It’s been a while since I felt this calm in the morning..."
Jason left out the fact that it would be a while before he felt this calm again, but Stella was able to easily pick out her master’s silent words, and Stella’s face darkened as she realised that Jason was planning something big! Jason usually only became this downcast whenever he was planning to go somewhere for a long time, and Stella immediately stepped back and bowed to Jason!
Jason turned to look at Stella in surprise, and he asked her what she was doing. Stella spoke up in a quiet voice.
"I know it might be presumptuous of me to say this, master. But I do not think it is a good thing for you to travel across the Primordial Expanse alone. I know that you have a responsibility to fulfill, and I will never attempt to stop you from doing what you must, but I implore you to please take me along with you. Allow me to perform the duty that I have sworn to you, master. Please, let me care for you."
