Necromancer Of The Shadows

Six hours later....

Evan can be seen walking toward the academy. Every person who saw Evan stepped aside and didn't dare to come near him.

Where ever Evan went people quickly walked away from there not wanting to stand near him.

People were avoiding Evan like he was a plague.

Evan didn't care about people and continued to walk toward the academy. His face was lifeless and he was releasing an extrema aura of depression and poverty.

His depression aura was so strong that it was leaking out and whoever saw him doesn't want to come near him.

Remembering what happened to him a few hours ago Evan felt his heart is about to burst and he wanted to die.

Evan's lifeless eyes were looking at his phone screen that was showing his bank balance.

Just a few hours ago he had hundreds of thousands of credits, but currently, his bank balance was showing just 3000 credits.

"Why?" Evan muttered in a depressed voice, "Why is this happening to me?"

After finding out that he can even merge skills with his monarch core as long as they are compatible, Evan thought about how he can get more skills.

When Evan thought about this he suddenly remembered the details of his shadow monarch physique. He quickly opened his status window and looked at it once again to make sure he didn't remember wrong.

--) Shadow Monarch Physique:- One of the forbidden physiques that exists in the world. It allows you to form a monarch core inside your heart. The monarch core can absorb 100℅ power of a core. While absorbing the core there is a 3% chance that you will receive a skill of the monster from which the core was extracted.

Evan's breathing turned heavy after reading the details and he tried his best to calm down.

"I can get skills as long as I absorb the energy of a core through my monarch core" Evan muttered and he wanted to beat down his past self for ignoring this important detail.

"Since I can get skills from any core then I just have to buy F rank cores and I will be able to get many skills, with the current amount of money I have I can easily buy F rank cores" Evan quickly got up and left the hotel.

Evan came to city plaza and bought more than 100 F rank cores, there is just a 3% chance of getting skills so Evan wanted to get at least three skills if not more.

After buying the codes Evan found a hotel near the city plaza and booked a room to absorb the core there.

Although he was dirt poor after spending all the money he had on cores, he was so excited that instead of going back to the academy he booked a room in the hotel.

After booking the room Evan quickly went in, his heart was filled with excitement and he was wondering what kind of skills he will get.

Suddenly five hours and thirty minutes later everyone in the hotel felt, a depressing and at the same time gloomy aura trying to engulf them.

Some people were horrified when they felt the depressing aura, just breathing inside that aura made them want to suicide.

That aura was too sinister even the hotel staff was horrified by what was happening.

While the hotel staff and the guests were panicking and were thinking about calling the hunter association for help the door of Evan's room opened and he walked out.

There was no emotion on Evan's face and his eyes were lifeless like he lost everything in his life.

"Holy mother of fat buffalo what the hell is wrong with this guy?" the receptionist who was about to call the hunter association to tell them they were under attack by an unknown hunter stopped, and exclaimed when he saw how Evan was walking with lifeless face and aura of depression was overflowing from him.

Evan didn't even glance at the receptionist and silently left the hotel.

Failed!!!

His plan of getting skills from F rank core failed miserably.

He didn't get even a single skill even after absorbing more than one hundred cores.

Evan don't know why, but now he was sure that he can't get skills from F rank cores. Forget about F rank cores Evan had a feeling that even with E rank core he won't get any skill.

Although Evan wasn't sure he guessed that it has something to do with his monarch's core rank.

Since the rank of his monarch core is already D rank he can't get skills from the cores that are below D rank.

There are many things he still doesn't know about his monarch core. Evan now understood that even though there are some details about his shadow monarch physique on his status window it doesn't tell him about everything.

No information on his status window tells him that his monarch core can merge skills.

Thinking about the money he lost Evan felt someone is squeezing his heart.

Evan can't help but feel like poverty is his girlfriend that refuses to leave him because of how handsome he becomes.

While walking back with a gloomy aura Evan saw a general store and stopped.

Seeing the general store Evan remembered something and with heavy steps walked towards it.

After earning the fortune Evan thought that he will not eat the cup noodles for a long time, but remembering his current bank balance Evan knew he can only rely on cup noodles once again.

Seeing Evan coming towards his store, the store owner was scared sh*less and wanted to run away.

But he sighed in relief when he found out that Evan just came there to buy cup noodles.

Seeing the aura of depression and poverty around Evan the store owner felt a little bad for Evan and wondered what happened to him.

After buying the cup noodles Evan once again started to walk towards the academy and promised to himself that next time he will surely break up with his all-time girlfriend 'POVERTY'
