Necromancer Of The Shadows

Soon Evan and others were able to hear the sound of heavy footsteps that were approaching them.

Ethan focused on the direction from which all monsters came, after ten seconds Evan finally saw two humanoid figures coming towards them.

They were still one hundred meters away from them so others were not able to see them, they were only able to hear the sound of footsteps Evan was the only one who was able to see them clearly.

Evan saw the two, three meters tall humanoid monsters, with long horns coming out from their head dark black skin, and one deep red eye at the center of their face coming towards them.

At first, Evan did not recognize the monster but when he finally identified the monster his eyes opened wide "What the hell, how can black ogres can be here?"

When others heard what Evan said they looked at him with shocked faces and before they can ask anything the two black ogres arrived near them.

When others saw the hideous looking three meters tall monsters their face turned pale white "no wonder those monsters were running away like that" Dean said after regaining his composure everyone here was an experienced hunter except Evan so they quickly came out from their shock state.

"It's good these black ogres are still D+ rank" George said while holding his long sword tightly.

"Even if they are D+ rank it will be very hard for us to kill them" James said even he was looking at the black ogres with a serious face.

Black ogres are one of the most dangerous monsters, it was because of their abnormal skills and innate ability.

Every black ogre possesses the innate ability called devouring, with the help of this ability they can devour any lifeforms and increase their power.

Unlike humans who need cores to improve their power black ogres can devour any lifeforms and increase their strength, the reason other monsters were running away from these ogres was also because of this ability.

If you get caught by these black ogres you will receive a very painful and slow death where you will be eaten alive by these monsters.

Although these black ogres are still D+rank even C-rank hunter struggle when they fight against this monster because its defense is very high, on top of that these monsters possess skill regeneration, so even if you injure them they will quickly heal because of this skill.

If this was any other monster Evan and others will not be this worried but the black ogre is a completely different matter.

When Evan saw the black ogre he was not sure about defeating them because of their abnormal defense and regeneration skill, but Evan was at least sure that his life will not be in danger because the agility of black ogres are very low so he can always run away from here if he wasn't able to kill them.

"I will take care of one of them, you guys took out another one" Evan said to George and the others.

No one objected to what Evan said because they already saw how Evan was able to kill three D-rank monsters all by himself earlier.

Evan ran a little far away from the van and threw a stone towards one of the black ogres, when the stone hit the ogre it looked in Evan's direction and walked towards him.

The second ogre did not go towards Evan and continued to go towards George and others.

'Alright, I hope this shabby sword will be able to pass through the tough defense of this black ogre' Evan thought while holding his sword that was covered in light blue mana.

Krlrlek!!!

The black ogre made a strange sound when it came near Evan "sorry but I didn't learn the ogre language in the academy" Evan said while charging toward the black ogre.

The ogre was three meters tall so Evan looked like a child who was running towards an adult, when the black ogre saw Evan coming towards it, it lifted its hand and tried to crush Evan while using its hand like a hammer.

Evan jumped up and dodged the attack of the ogre while slashing at its arm with his sword.

Because of its low agility, the ogre wasn't able to defend itself and was struck by the sword.

Kaaaa!!!

The ogre screamed in pain when a deep wound appeared on its arm, Evan was shocked when he saw the wound because earlier when he fought against the wolves he was able to behead them with a single slash, and hear he wasn't even able to cut off the arm of ogre 'as expected its defense is in a completely different league compare to other monsters'.

Krreirk!!!

The ogre shouted and suddenly the deep wound on its arm started to heal at incredible speed.

'Damm! Its regeneration skill will be a pain in the a*s' Evan cursed when he saw how the wound of the ogre started to heal.

Suddenly the eye of the ogre lit up and Evan felt a sense of crisis, without hesitation, Evan backed away from the ogre and activated his haste skill to increase his agility even more.

Just as Evan backed away a deep red laser-like beam shot out from the eye of the ogre, Evan quickly jumped sideways to dodge the beam and saw how the beam penetrated many trees.

'if I didn't back away on time and used haste skill I would have been hit by that beam' Evan thought while gulping down his saliva.

After using the beam the ogre closed its eye for a moment, when Evan saw this he quickly charged toward the ogre and arrived near its right leg in a blink of an eye.

Evan slashed at the right leg of the ogre with his sword.

Swish!!!

Dark black blood spurted out from the leg of the ogre where Evan just slashed, but he did not stop there "shadow bullet" Evan used a shadow bullet at the same place where he just slashed with his sword.

Puchii!!!

The bullet pierce deep inside the leg of the ogre and a fountain of black blood came out from its leg.

Kaaaa!!!!

The ogre screamed in pain when the shadow bullet pierce deep inside its leg.

Evan was about to attack the ogre once again when his body suddenly stopped moving and even before he can do anything the ogre punched him in the chest.

Evan flew backward like a broken kite and crashed against a tree. Evan coughed out mouth full of blood after crashing against the tree.

'What the hell happened' Evan tried to stand up while ignoring the pain that he was feeling in his chest area, the bones of his ribcage were almost fractured because of the ogre punch.

'Why my body suddenly stopped moving' Evan thought and looked at the ogre with a painful expression on his face.

When Evan looked at the ogre he saw its eye which was red some time ago was now pitch black and the damaged that he did earlier to its leg was also healing at rapid speed.
