Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1008  A News From The Slave (Part 2)

"What do you want to talk about?" Evan asked Alaric as he sat in a chair, looking at the fox with a curious expression.

'Now this guy is giving me the vibe of a Japanese old man...' He thought as he watched Alaric preparing tea for them.

Anastasia was sitting beside him while Sylvan and Alaric were in front of him. There was a table between them, and Alaric was preparing tea on it.

Alaric didn't immediately answer Evan's question; instead, he first prepared the tea and poured everyone a cup.

"Thanks," Evan said, taking the teacup Alaric handed him and sipping it. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Hmmm?" Evan raised an eyebrow after taking a sip because, although the taste of the tea was normal, he could feel a strange energy in it refining his world essence and increasing its density.

Even the world essence he had absorbed after eating the stew Anastasia made was being refined at a very fast speed.

"To think this cheapskate would take out such good tea..." Evan heard Anastasia muttering and saw Sylvan nodding his head as if he was also stunned by Alaric's action.

Alaric didn't care about Sylvan and Anastasia's sarcasm and spoke to Evan after taking a sip of the tea.

"Do you have any plan regarding the war that is about to start between the Gehenna Empire and the Dragon Islands?"

Evan was surprised when he heard Alaric and asked in a confused voice, "Why are you asking me this question?"

Alaric sighed and said while looking at him.

"It's because although I am not clear about the entire picture, I am sure everything that is happening is related to you in one way or another. And before you ask why I am sure about this... it's actually very clear," Alaric said and continued. "The light dragon that destroyed the demon capital came out of the Tomb. Then earlier, you said Eldrakar and Baphomet are trapped inside the collapsed Tomb. The Tomb actually collapsed a few minutes before you came out, but even though the Tomb collapsed, you were still able to come out successfully, which means you had a certain level of control over it. Since you had a certain level of control over the Tomb, I think it was you who sent out that light dragon to destroy the demon capital to sow disorder between demons and dragons and, at the same time, using your control over the Tomb, you trapped Eldrakar and Baphomet inside it."

Evan was a little surprised when he heard Alaric. Although it was not hard to guess what he just said, he was still impressed that Alaric thought about all of this in just a few minutes. After all, it had only been a few minutes since he told them about Eldrakar and Baphomet being trapped in the Tomb.

'Well, what can I say... as expected from a fox,' Evan thought inwardly and shook his head.

"You are not entirely right since it wasn't me who did all of these things, but let's forget about that. As for your question about whether I have any plans regarding this war, the answer is no. I don't plan to do anything about the war between the demons and dragons."

What kind of plan could he have about the war? Let's not forget that just a few minutes ago, he didn't even know that Dragons and Demons were about to start a war. Even if he had known, he wouldn't have done anything because he was still just a Rank Two Core Evolver.

It would be foolish of him to try to meddle in the war of two giant factions, especially since he knew his identity had already been exposed.

Most of the factions in Utopia already knew about what he did in the Tomb, and they wouldn't let him go if he left the hidden world of the Drayds and got caught by them.

"So you really don't have any plan regarding this war?" Alaric was surprised when he heard Evan's answer because he thought that since Evan was the one who caused all this chaos, he must have something in mind.

"Yeah, I don't want to get involved in this stupid farce. I already have a lot of troubles, and I don't want to increase them even more."

"A lot of troubles? What is troubling you?" Anastasia raised an eyebrow when she heard Evan and asked him in a confused voice.

Evan looked at Anastasia with dead eyes and asked in a speechless voice.

"Don't you know? My identity was exposed when I was in the Tomb and now almost every faction in Utopia knows that I am somehow related to the Shadow Monarch and looking for me."

"Eh?" Anastasia, Sylvan, and Alaric were stunned when they heard Evan and looked at him with their eyes wide open.

"What? Don't tell me you don't know what happened in the Tomb?" Evan asked with a weird look on his face when he saw their shocked expressions.

'Haven't Cedar and the others told them about what happened in the Tomb?' Evan thought. But then he remembered that Cedar was busy in the secret area of the Tomb collecting the World Core Plant, while the rest of the Drayds stayed in the first layer of the Tomb during the entire time because they were just Rank One Core Evolvers.

The only Drayd who entered the second layer other than Cedar was Carla, but she was killed by Zorda.

Because the other Drayds were in the first layer and didn't go to the second layer, they did not know what happened there, so naturally, Sylvan and the others also didn't receive any information about it.

Evan sighed when he thought about it and told them how he killed most of the people from the other factions in the Tomb and how his identity was exposed in the process.

Sylvan and Alaric were stunned to learn that Evan had practically massacred people from every faction. Anastasia was curious about the reason why he killed them, but since Evan didn't speak about the reason, she could only make some random guesses.

"It's really quite a big problem. Since they know about your identity, I am one hundred percent certain that most of the factions will try their best to search for you," Alaric said with a frown on his face.

"Right, even though some of the major factions' attention will shift towards the war between the Gehenna Empire and Dragon Islands, they won't give up on you. Especially after you massacred so many people in the Tomb," Sylvan also nodded his head in agreement.

When Anastasia heard Sylvan talking about shifting their attention towards the war, her eyes lit up and a bold idea came to her mind.

"Actually, I recently received a piece of information from my new vampire slave..." She said while looking at Alaric and Sylvan with a cold smile. "If we play our cards right, not only will all of us benefit greatly, but we will also be able to increase the scale of this war to the point where most of the major factions will have no choice but to ignore your existence for the time being."
