Necromancer Of The Shadows

"Does this core world have natural resources like the outer world?" Evan asked as he looked at the sea below him while floating high in the air.

"Of course, there are," Anastasia answered and snapped her fingers when she heard Evan. As she did, the sea below them parted, revealing the bottom where some sea plants were growing.

"Those plants are some of the normal sea herbs. Most of them range from C rank to rank two. Occasionally, some resources are born that can reach rank three or even rank four, but there aren't many of them in my core world."

Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard Anastasia and asked in a confused voice.

"Is there a reason why the resources here are not very high level? I mean, this world looks just like Utopia, so there shouldn't be a problem for it to give birth to high-level resources, right?"

Anastasia nodded upon hearing Evan and shrugged her shoulders.

"The birth of high-level resources consumes a large amount of energy, and no matter what kind of resources are born in this world, they are basically useless to me since I am already a rank six core evolver. So I just placed a restriction that resources above rank four won't appear here," She said and added after a moment.

"Besides, long ago my core was seriously damaged and my rank had dropped to mid-level rank six because of that. In order to not make that injury even worse, I had to preserve my energy, so I couldn't waste it on the formation of high-level resources even if I wanted to."

"Injury?" Evan frowned when he heard Anastasia. "You mean you are currently injured?"

Anastasia smiled when she heard Evan's serious voice and shook her head.

"I used to be injured, but when the shadow realm evolved a few months ago, I also received a huge benefit because of the partial authority I had over it. It not only healed my core but even restored my rank back to the peak of rank six," She said and continued with a smug smile on her face.

"Now I am even stronger than my previous peak self. Even those silly monarchs can't defeat me in a one-on-one fight. If you have any problem in the future, just tell me and I will solve it for you. As people say, your business is now my business."

Evan nearly fell from the sky when he heard Anastasia and looked at her with a blank look on his face.

Your business is my business.

'Why does it feel like a quote that only a boss of a gang would say?' He thought with a twitching mouth and decided to ignore the smug smile on Anastasia's face.

"Let's go out. It's already been a few hours since we've been here," He said while shaking his head.

"All right," Anastasia said and stretched out her hand.

"Is it necessary to hold hands to leave this world?" He asked with genuine curiosity on his face.

"Not really," Anastasia replied, but she didn't pull back her hand.

Evan shook his head when he heard Anastasia and held her hand.

"At least you're honest and not making useless excuses like you can't use your power to take us out without holding hands or something like that."

Anastasia just smiled when she heard Evan and held his hand tightly as a silver light engulfed them. "I don't need to make any excuses to do what I want."

Evan didn't say anything when he heard Anastasia, and soon both of them disappeared from Anastasia's core world.

In the living room where Evan and Anastasia were before entering the core world, a silver light flashed, and both of them appeared there.

The moment Evan appeared in the living room, he felt the aura of Cedar, Orpal, and other Dryads who had entered the Tomb with him standing outside his house.

'They are already here,' Evan raised an eyebrow when he sensed their presence, knowing they would come to meet him. After all, he was the one who told them he would explain Carla's situation to them.

'Though, I did not expect them to come here so early,' Evan thought while shaking his head as he looked at the rising sun, indicating it was early morning.

Just when Evan was about to go out, the door of his living room slammed open, and Cedar and the others rushed inside.

They had been waiting for him for nearly an hour, so the moment they felt his aura, they understood he was back and rushed inside.

But the moment they entered the living room, Cedar and the others froze because they saw Evan and Anastasia standing while holding hands. What was even more shocking was that this scene was completely uncensored.

When Evan noticed Cedar, Jack, Orpal, and Kiara looking towards his hands with a stunned expression, he clicked his tongue and let go of Anastasia's hand.

"Tch! Kids." He said in a sarcastic voice.

Hearing Evan's sarcastic voice, Cedar and the others came back to their senses, but their faces turned gloomy because Evan had just called them kids.

'Has this guy forgotten that we are all much older than him?' Cedar and the others thought at the same time, but Evan didn't care and walked towards them.

He already knew why they had come to see him, so without wasting time, he explained that he had a skill he could use to revive Carla, but due to his low rank, he couldn't use it right now. However, it wouldn't be impossible to revive her in the future.

Cedar and the others were shocked when they heard that Evan had the ability to revive someone. Although they were curious about this skill, they didn't press him further for details since Evan himself didn't elaborate.

After learning that Carla could be revived in the future, Cedar and the others were naturally more relaxed.

"By the way, did you find the thing you were looking for in the Tomb?" Evan suddenly asked Cedar, remembering that he had mentioned he wanted to find something that could heal Sylvan, whose core was damaged. (at the end of chap— 724)

For a moment, Cedar showed a confused look upon hearing Evan, but he soon understood what he was talking about and nodded his head.

When Evan saw a momentary look of confusion on Cedar's face, his mouth twitched and he asked in a deadpan voice.

"Don't tell me you completely forgot about the injury of that poor old man after coming out."

Cedar coughed when he heard Evan and instantly shook his head. "Of course, I didn't forget."

'Yup, he definitely forgot.' Evan didn't believe Cedar's words and was sure that he had forgotten about Sylvan's injury after coming out of the Tomb.

'With such a good grandchild, the future of that old man doesn't look bright.'

Evan silently clapped both his hands and prayed for Sylavn that he wouldn't suffer much in the future.
