Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1079  Winterclaw And Primordials (Part 1)

As Evan's appearance began to change and a familiar face came into her view, Valery's mouth hung open and her jaw nearly dropped to the ground.

"You—" She pointed a trembling finger at him as her entire body shook with shock.

Evan nodded in satisfaction at Valery's reaction and smiled slightly. He didn't transform into his Eltharon form; instead, he chose his previous appearance before his evolution, making it easy for Valery to recognize him.

Just when Evan expected her to be shocked and ask what he was doing here, his expectations were shattered by her next words.

"So, it was you, you bastard! Couldn't you have dealt with that soul strand in a way that wouldn't have hurt my soul? It hurts like hell."

Hearing Valery, Evan stared at her with a blank look on his face, not knowing what to say.

Just a moment ago, she was clearly gritting her teeth to hide the pain, trying to act tough and now she was throwing tantrums about how much it hurt.

As Valery looked at Evan with resentment, Elora narrowed her eyes. She glanced at Evan, whose mouth was still twitching, then shifted her attention back to Valery.

Seeing that Valery was still staring at Evan, Elora recalled what Anastasia had told her before she left the closed world of Dryads and a look of anticipation flashed in her eyes as she took a step forward.

Her action was so sudden that before either Evan or Valery could react, she appeared in front of Valery and lightly poked both of her eyes with her small fingers.

Valery only felt a burning pain in her eyes and the next second...

"Arghh!" She screamed in pain again, writhing on the ground like a fish out of water.

Evan looked at the scene with his mouth slightly open, his gaze shifting between Elora, who was nodding her head in satisfaction and Valery, who was rolling on the ground.

Although Valery's eyes didn't sustain any serious damage since Elora had only lightly poked them, it was still incredibly painful.

"Why did you attack her, Elora?" Evan asked with a twitching mouth as he increased the power of the white flame covering Valery, trying to ease her pain.

Hearing Evan, Elora looked at him with a proud expression.

"Before I left, Mother told me to poke the eyes of any woman who stares at you for more than ten seconds for no reason," She said as a big smile appeared on her face. "She said if I do what she said, she'll make a jumbo feast for me once we go back."

"This..." Evan opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. He looked at Valery, who had finally stopped rolling thanks to the healing effect of the White Flame and suddenly felt she was even more pitiful than him.

First, she was sent to Earth instead of the World Domain, then she discovered someone living in her core without paying rent. On top of that, the same soul had been trying to take over her body. Now that she had finally rid herself of that soul strand, her soul was seriously injured, and as if that wasn't enough, a kid had poked her eyes, nearly blinding her.

"What kind of sins did I commit in my past life to deserve this kind of harsh treatment..." Valery muttered with a lost look on her face as she gazed up at the sky.

Evan sighed when he heard Valery's pitiful voice and pinched Elora's cheeks.

"Elora, stop listening to everything that woman says and don't randomly poke people's eyes."

"But if I don't poke people's eyes, I won't get my jumbo fea—"

"Don't worry, even if you don't poke people's eyes, you'll still get your jumbo feast," Evan said in a light voice and before Elora could say anything else, he brought her back into the house where she had been watching anime and then returned to Antarctica in an instant.

"Huh?" Elora looked around in confusion at the sudden change in environment, but after noticing five holographic screens playing anime, she stopped thinking about Valery, sat down on the sofa and grabbed her popcorn bucket.

"Stop acting like a dead fish. She just lightly poked your eyes and didn't cause any damage," Evan said after returning to Antarctica.

Valery sighed when she heard Evan and once again sat up.

"So, did you also come here after using the Tower of Ascension?" She asked after sitting up.

"No, I was sent to a different world that is much more powerful than this one. It was just an accident that I ended up here," Evan replied with a shake of his head and seeing Valery was about to ask another question, he stopped her and said in a serious voice, "I'll tell you everything later. But for now, tell me how that soul strand was related to your physique."

Hearing Evan, Valery fell silent, taking a moment to organize her thoughts. After a moment, she began to explain the strange dreams she had been experiencing for the past few months and how her advancement speed had increased since the moment she started having those dreams. (Chap— 820)

At the same time, she also told him about the notifications she received after having those dreams.

Evan couldn't help but frown when he heard Valery mention the dreams as it sounded very similar to his situation.

He also occasionally had dreams related to Azroth, but he knew those were not just dreams—they were his actual memories that had been locked away because of the Soul Seals. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Hearing Valery, he felt that the dreams she was describing were similar to memories.

"So you mean to say your physique is on the verge of evolving, and according to the notifications you received, it will evolve into a Monarch Physique, right?" Evan asked after listening to Valery.

"Yes, and if I'm not wrong, the changes in my physique are related to that soul strand," Valery nodded in agreement.

"You said your physique is on the verge of evolving but can't take the final step. Do you know the reason?"

Valery nodded seriously and replied, "It's because my physique is missing an important item."

"Missing an important item?" Evan raised an eyebrow hearing her. "What kind of item do you need to evolve your physique?"

Valery remained silent for a moment before she finally opened her mouth.

"Source of the Ice Monarch. I need the Source of the Ice Monarch to evolve my physique."
