Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1081  Shaldik (Part 1)

"Primordials," Evan's expression changed when he heard Valery and he instantly thought about his core.

'My core is a Primordial Monarch Core. Could it be that the little girl Valery mentioned in her dreams also had a Primordial Monarch Core?' He wondered, finding the idea plausible.

"There are five monarch physique holders, and all five of them possess a Monarch Core. If I go by this logic, then it's definitely possible that there are people other than me who possess Primordial Monarch Core instead of regular Monarch Cores," He muttered to himself with a thoughtful look on his face.

'If what I just thought is true, then doesn't it mean there might be people even more powerful than Baphomet and the other Monarch Physique holders?'

Although it was just a guess, Evan felt that those with Primordial Monarch Cores should be stronger than Baphomet and the others.

As someone who possessed a Primordial Monarch Core himself, he was well aware of its advantages.

Not only does it provide a greater boost in power whenever he advances to the next rank compared to other cores, but the advancing speed of a Primordial Monarch Core is also faster than the others.

On top of that, the skills and Authorities that unlock each time he advances to the next rank are also more powerful than regular skills and Authorities.

"Primordials, huh..." Evan muttered in a low voice and without realizing it, the corner of his lips arched upwards and a mocking and cold light flashed in his eyes.

Valery was a little confused when she noticed the cold look on Evan's face, unable to understand what he was thinking.

"You know, you currently look like a full-fledged young master of a big clan who's about to murder a billion people..." She suddenly commented, recalling some of the novels she had read after coming to Earth to relieve her boredom.

Hearing Valery, Evan snapped back to his senses and subconsciously touched his face, surprised to find a cold smile there.

'What's with this sudden change in mood? Do I have a grudge against those Primordials?' He wondered and his expression returned to normal.

'Well... considering Azroth even beat down a loli who claims to be a Primordial, it might be possible. Otherwise, knowing his personality, although he's cold and ruthless, he wouldn't go around beating people for no reason.'

Evan took a deep breath to calm his unstable emotions and stopped worrying about the Primordials.

He was just a little surprised after learning that the little girl he beat down was a Primordial... And according to Valery, it was a complete beatdown, where the little girl who claimed to be a Primordial couldn't do anything against him.

'Does this mean even among the Primordials, I was at the top...?' Evan thought and suddenly felt a bit more confident about handling the problem of the Tomb of the Ancient, which, according to Azroth will erupt in six years.

"Young Master, what are you thinking?"

Evan, who was lost in thought, suddenly heard a voice and his mouth twitched. He looked at Valery, who was staring at him cautiously and black lines appeared on his forehead.

"Looks like you've been reading a lot of novels after coming to Earth," He said in a low voice and the next second, the white flame covering Valery disappeared.

As the white flames vanished, Valery felt the pain from her soul increase and her face tensed up.

Evan rolled his eyes at Valery's tense expression and took out a light blue-coloured fruit from his shadow storage.

"Eat it," He said, tossing the fruit toward Valery. "It'll speed up your soul's recovery."

Valery caught the light blue fruit Evan threw towards her and a surprised expression appeared on her face.

"This fruit..." She sniffed the fruit and just from the scent, she felt a warm feeling spreading through her soul.

---) Spirit Fruit (Low-Level Rank One): A spirit fruit that can heal and recover the spiritual energy of Rank One Core Evolvers to some extent.

"Low-Level Rank One..." Valery looked at the rank of the fruit with a confused look on her face as it was the first time she had seen something of Rank One.

"It's something from the world I was sent to after using the Tower of Ascension..." Evan said in a light voice seeing Valery's confused face.

In the Tomb of the Ancient, he obtained many things and this low-level fruit was one of them.

There were thousands of these low-level fruits in his shadow storage, which were completely useless to him since they couldn't restore his spiritual power.

They were only effective on Rank One Core Evolvers and below. The only reason he still had them in his shadow storage was that they tasted good, and Elora liked to eat them as snacks sometimes.

"Something from the world you were sent to..." Valery muttered in a low voice and didn't ask anything else. She ate the fruit in just a few bites and felt her soul slowly recovering under the energy of the fruit.

Once Valery ate the fruit, Evan scanned her body using his spiritual senses and noticed that most of the power of the fruit was dormant in her body, slowly being digested.

'It seems she can only eat one fruit for now as her rank is too low to refine the energy of Rank One resources...' He thought and decided not to give her more spirit fruit for now; otherwise, instead of healing, the excess energy of fruit might damage her soul further.

"Let's go back to Base City Five for now..." Evan said and a wind barrier covered Valery.

'The last time I broke the soul seal after coming out of the Tomb of the Ancient, I received vague information about the war between the Primordials. Maybe, the dreams Valery mentioned are related to that war...' Evan thought as wind started to circle around him. (Chap— 996)

'If I want more information about this war between the Primordials, I need to break the next soul seal as soon as possible.'

Just as the wind completely enveloped Evan and he was about to return to Base City Five, he suddenly felt something and looked back.

*Wrzzzz!*

The moment Evan looked back, the space not far away from him warped and twisted, and a portal appeared there. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Rumble!

As soon as the portal appeared, a terrifying aura burst outward from it, causing the entire Earth to shake.
