Necromancer Of The Shadows



Evan was sitting in a park looking at the two thousand meter high building in front of him. He was eating ice cream and had a relaxed expression on his face.

"The main headquarters of the hunter association is really impressive," muttered Evan, looking at the building.

"I read that the current president of the hunter association is the strongest hunter in the world. I wonder if she is inside this building."

According to what Evan knew, the current president of the Hunters Association is an old woman named Natasha.

Although there was not much information available on the internet about her skills or power, he saw a video in which she killed an S rank monster in less than a minute that was trying to enter the central city.

"From the video, it looks like her skills are related to space element," Evan muttered remembering the video.

'I think Nathan is also quite strong. In one on one fight, it would be difficult for me to beat him without using shadow energy.'

From what Evan could feel after talking with Nathan and Sebastian, he felt that Sebastian is a little weaker than Nathan. Although the difference is not big, he was sure that Nathan is more powerful than him.

"Well, considering Sebastian is quite young when compared to Nathan, I think it is natural that he is weaker than him."

Evan finished his ice cream and stood up from the bench he was sitting on.

He stretched his body and looked at the night sky filled with stars.

"Without realizing I spent more than five hours doing nothing and just trying different kinds of food that are quite famous in the central city." Evan rubbed the back of his head and decided to go back to the hotel.

After killing Olivia and Adam, he got many cores from them and he wanted to absorb them using his monarch core to increase his power even more.

He also had cores that he collected from the wilderness and the wyvern nest dungeon.

He wanted to absorb them after he came out of the dungeon, but he did not find time for that.

"It is going to be a pain in the ass to increase the rank of my monarch core to A," Evan said in a bitter tone, remembering how little progress his monarch core made when he absorbed the energies of some monsters using energy devouring skill and fed it.

While walking he looked at the mana inside his core and noticed a very small amount of his mana turned into a rainbow-coloured energy.

"My mana stopped changing once again" his mana continued to change into world essence for one day after he left the dungeon.

But after a day it stopped changing again for some reason.

'Do I need to go inside a dungeon to continue to change it into world essence' Evan thought to himself remembering his mana started to change after his dungeon exploration.

"Forget it, I will think about it after going back to Astarte city," Evan said and stopped looking at the mana inside his core.

As Evan was walking towards the exit, he saw an old couple who just entered the park. They were not hunters and were looking to be in their late sixties.

Surprisingly, he noticed they were coming towards him and were smiling for some reason.

'Why are they coming towards me?' Evan frowned when he saw them smiling at him.

The couple stopped in front of him and the old woman said to him with a kind smile on her face, "Your friend asked us to give this letter to you"

Evan looked at the letter in the woman's hand and was dumbfounded when he saw a big pink heart engraved at the top of it.

'Is this a love letter?' Evan was perplexed and did not know what to say.

Seeing the perplexed look on Evan's face the coupled laughed and the woman placed the letter in his hand.

Evan came out of his perplexed state only when the old woman placed the letter in his hand, he looked at her and saw she was smiling kindly at him.

"Um... Aunty, can you tell me where is this friend of mine who asked you to give me this letter?" Evan asked, trying to guess the identity of the person who asked them to give this letter to him.

"She was outside of the park a moment ago, but she ran away after asking us to give this letter to you." the old man said and grabbed the hand of the old woman.

"Let's go honey, looks like this young one is finally going to experience the spring." the man said and the old couple left from there.

Evan: "..."

He was completely speeches when he heard what the old man said.

He looked at the letter in his hands but did not find anything strange with it.

"Who the hell is this person who sent me this letter?" Evan muttered with a frown on his face because he arrived in the central city just a few hours ago, and he doesn't know anyone here.

He hesitated just for a moment before deciding to open it.

Unlike other people who open these kinds of letters with care, Evan mercilessly tore it open in one go.

As he opened the letter, instead of some love-filled words he saw a silver-coloured paper with a strange rune engraved on it.

Suddenly the rune on silver paper lit up. Before he could throw away the letter, his body was surrounded by a silver light.

Seeing the silver light covering his body, only one thought came into Evan's mind.

'This is fucking love letter trap'

Woosh!

The silver light spread in the surroundings and soon disappeared along with Evan.

Evan's vision turned blurry and he felt the sensation of being teleported away.

His vision returned to normal in less than two seconds. But before he could see where he was, he felt tens of attacks coming towards him.

He had no time to use any kind of skills because of the sudden attack, but luckily he was wearing his shielding amulet earring.

Just as the attacks were about to hit him, his earring lit up and a barrier covered him stopping the attacks.

Crack..crack.

Because of so many attacks, cracks started to appear on the barrier. But before the barrier shattered, it successfully stopped all the attacks.

After the barrier stopped all the attacks, Evan quickly looked around him.

He felt the aura of thirty hunters around him and saw he seemed to be inside a run-down building. Among thirty hunters three were B+ rank, seven were B rank and twenty were C and C+ rank.

Suddenly Evan saw a B rank blue haired hunter charging toward him. He was already pissed off because of the sudden ambush so without waiting for him to come near him, Evan instantly appeared before the charging hunter and kicked him right at his chest.

The sound of bones cracking rang out and the B rank hunter was sent flying backwards like a broken kite. He crashed against the wall of the building and coughed out a mouthful of blood.

But Evan can't help but frown when he saw what happened next.
