Necromancer Of The Shadows

Evan was walking towards the ice pyramid calmly with a small smile on his face.

Beside him, Valery was walking with a twitching mouth.

It is been thirty minutes since Evan killed those two ice leopards that appeared before them. After killing those ice leopards Evan got one ice core from one of the leopards.

Evan was happy after getting a C rank core just after killing two ice leopards, so he walked forward with much more enthusiasm.

During these thirty minutes they encounter ten more ice leopards and all of them were C rank, just like the two leopards they faced earlier.

These ice leopards always appear in groups. They encounter two groups of two ice leopards and two groups of the three ice leopards.

When they encounter the group of the two ice leopards, just like the first time Evan killed them using his dimensional shadow bullet.

Since Valery said to him he can keep all the cores from the monsters he kill himself, he decided to kill most of the monsters.

So whenever an ice leopard came before them even before Valery can do anything he killed them using his skill.

Valery was quite frustrated seeing Evan was killing all of the monsters, but she calmed down when she remembered soon they will encounter groups where there will be more than two ice leopards.

From what she saw Evan always used two bullets to kill them so she thought he can only use two bullets at the same time.

So when they came before a group of three ice leopards she was ready to spill her first blood in the dungeon.

Valery placed her hand on the hilt of her sword and bent down her body to charge forward.

But just as she was about to shot forward, she saw three black bullets shot out from their shadows and killed them just like before.

Valery who was ready to charge forward was frozen in her place and just watched with a dazed face as Evan once again walked towards the leopards and started to look for cores.

What was that?

Wasn't he supposed to only use two bullets at the same time?

How did they turn into three this time?

After looking for the core, Evan didn't even glance at Valery who was still frozen in the posture of charging forward and started to walk towards the ice pyramid.

Currently, his attention was fully focused on the cores.

When Valery saw Evan walking away she stopped playing statue-statue and quickly chased after him.

After walking for some time they once again encounter a group of three ice leopards.

Seeing those ice leopards this time Valery did not try to do anything and just watched as they were once again killed by Evan's dimensional shadow bullets.

After killing these ten leopards Evan found three cores and now he was walking with a slight smile on his face.

"These ice leopards are quite weak" Evan muttered while walking.

Valery who heard Evan wanted to smash his head.

Although ice leopards are weak the problem hunters face while fighting against them is their agility.

The agility of ice leopards is very high, although it is inferior to a C+ rank hunter they are still dangerous because they always attack in groups.

But since Evan was killing them using dimensional shadow bullets they were not able to show their power.

Suddenly Valery and Evan once again stopped and looked in front of them.

In front of them, four ice leopards were coming towards them.

Seeing the four eyes leopards both Evan's and Valery's eyes lit up.

This time Valery was more hopeful, she didn't believe Evan will be able to kill those four ice leopards like before.

Valery was 90% confident that this time she will finally be able to fight.

But her confidence shattered like glass when she glanced at Evan and saw his shining eyes.

'That skill won't be able to kill four at the same time right?' Valery tried to grab the last straw of hope, but Evan was merciless as he once again killed those four ice leopards using his dimensional shadow bullet.

It is hard for him to control four bullets at the same time, like how he controlled bullets while fighting the death lord.

But if he just has to shoot bullets he can shoot all five at the same time.

Seeing the four ice leopards dropping to the ice, Valery's eyes became lifeless.

She can just watch without any expression as Evan once again walked towards the ice leopards and looked for cores with a hopeful look.

While Evan was looking for cores suddenly Valery thought about something and her eyes opened wide.

She didn't realize this earlier because she was too busy thinking about how to steal a kill that she completely ignored this fact.

'He is using that skill so many times. Seeing the power of that skill it is normal for him to run out of mana, then why is he looking completely fine?'

'Just how much mana does he have?' Valery thought and started to wonder if Evan is really a human.

She knew if she uses this kind of skill for so many times she will surely run out of mana.

Valery was right when she thought Evan was using a large amount of mana each time he uses his skill.

Although Evan is just a D rank hunter his mana capacity is comparable to that of a C+ rank hunter because of his monarch core and mutated prime core.

Not only these two gave him a large amount of mana, but they also give him a high regeneration speed.

Especially his monarch core that can recover his mana in just a few minutes.

He noticed the mana regeneration speed of his monarch core become even greater after he got one unit of the shadow energy.

Evan got one more core from the four ice leopards this time. Evan put away the core into his storage ring, and Valery can only see him with eyes full of envy.

Although with her background she can easily get as many C rank cores as she wants, she never used the money to get cores for herself and always gathered them by herself.

After collecting the core Evan and Valery once again walked forward and after ten minutes they finally reached the ice pyramid.
