Necromancer Of The Shadows



A man who looks to be in his mid thirties stood at the same place looking in front of him without moving.

The man had deep black hair and dark green eyes. From time to time a small amount of aura was leaking out from his body like he was unable to control his emotions.

Whenever his aura leaks out the surrounding air around him trambles indicating the person was definitely a high ranking hunter.

"I should have kept more hunters by my side instead of sending most of them to the front line" Ron, the S rank hunter who was stationed in the city to stop the attack of dark guild said, as a sigh escaped from his mouth.

He was looking at the completely destroyed area in front of him which was filled with rubbles and debris of the destroyed buildings.

The destroyed area in front of him was used to be city plaza of the city.

But now other than destroyed buildings and corpses of the civilians, there was nothing in that area.

"The causalities in this area are alone more than three thousand, and I didn't even look at the other three areas," Ron said while clenching his fist.

After knowing the dark guild will attack the city, all the hunters who were stationed in the city were on high alert.

Just as the monster tide reached the front line, Ron also received the news that the south side of the city, where the city plaza was located was being attacked by some hunters.

After getting the news he immediately rushed there, but while going there he was informed that the other three sides of the city were also being attacked.

It was impossible for him to take care of four places at the same time.

Even though they stationed the hunters at all of the major locations of the city including the places that were being attacked.

It was almost impossible for them to stop A and B+ rank hunters, without suffering damage.

Moreover, the members of the dark guild were also caught off guard when they saw some hunters approaching them just as they started their attack.

In order to achieve their goal, the A rank hunter of the dark guilds stopped the city guards while the remaining members of the dark guild went on a complete rampage, using their skills and the destructive artefacts that they brought with them to cause as much chaos as possible.

In the south area where Ron went, he was able to stop the members of the dark guild before they were able to cause much damage.

But after he stopped them something that he did not expect happened.

All of the members of the dark guild except the A rank hunters used some kind of technique, and their bodies exploded, causing large scale destruction in the surroundings.

There were two B+ rank, four B rank and eight C+ rank hunters who exploded at the same time.

The power generated by so many hunters exploding at the same time was enough to wipe out more than ten kilometres of the area of the city.

But Ron at that time reacted quickly, and was able to prevent such large scale destruction.

But even then around three kilometres of the area was completely destroyed. It was a place with many people so the causalities were very high.

Like this was not enough he soon received the news that the other members of the dark guild who were attacking the other areas of the city did the same thing.

When the A rank hunters of the dark guild were not able to stop the city guards, all the members of the dark guild used the same technique and blow up their bodies.

Moreover, since there was no one like Ron to stop the effect of the explosion in other areas, the casualties and the destruction in those three areas were even greater than the south side of the city.

As for the A rank hunters of the dark guild, all of them had an escape scroll with them. When they realized their situation was not good, all of them used the scroll and escape from there.

Soon some city guards approached Ron who was standing not far away from the destroyed area.

"Did you find them?" Ron asked without looking at them.

"We searched all over the city, but we did not find those four A rank hunters who escaped earlier" one of the city guards stepped forward and said after hearing Ron.

Ron can't help but sigh after hearing the city guard.

'Looks like those escape scrolls were of high grades that directly teleported them out of the city' Ron thought and closed his eyes for a moment.

"Don't lower your guard, and continue to patrol the city for now" Ron said to them after a moment. Even though they did not find people of the dark guild, there is a chance they might be hiding somewhere in the city.

Hearing Ron, all the guards left from there.

Ron looked at the destroyed area one last time before flying away from there.

After leaving from there, he went toward the west direction of the city.

After thirty minutes he reached at the location where members of the dark guild attacked.

Unlike the location of the city plaza, where he stopped the impact of the explosion, a large area of the city was destroyed in the west direction.

Ron talked with the city guards present there to ask about the situation.

After confirming the situation on the west side Ron went to the remaining two locations of the attack.

In the next few hours, he visited both of the places to see the situation there.

"More than fifteen thousand deaths" Ron muttered with a sad look on his face after visiting all four locations of attacks.

Apart from fifteen thousand deaths, there were many people who were severely injured.

While Ron was thinking what he should do now his bracelet suddenly vibrated. When he looked at it, he saw it was Damian who was calling him.

Seeing Damian was calling him a complicated expression appeared on his face, and he did not pick up the call for some time.

But knowing he will have to inform them sooner or later he finally accepted the call.
