Necromancer of The Shadows - Chapter 1064: A Familiar Face (part 1)
Evan led Leon and the others deep into the forest. Just as they were about to reach the spot where he had killed the Silver Titan Bear, he thought of something and activated his wind manipulation skill.
A few kilometres away from Evan’s position, dozens of wind blades suddenly materialized, slashing deep wounds into the bear’s body, making it appear as though the creature had been killed by the wind blades rather than having its mind turned to mush by Evan’s spiritual power.
‘They will act like scaredy cats if they find out I can kill them with just a thought using my spiritual power…’ Evan thought as he landed in front of the Silver Titan Bear’s body, which lay there with a peaceful expression on its face.
When Emma and the others noticed the scene, they were shocked to see that the area around the bear’s body was completely intact, with no signs of a struggle.
‘Since there’s no sign of a fight, it means the bear wasn’t even able to retaliate and was killed instantly.’
They thought, once again wondering just how powerful Evan truly was.
“You guys can take this body, but in return, I need a few things,” Evan said calmly, glancing at Leon from the corner of his eye.
Leon signalled Emma to collect the body and then looked back at Evan. “What do you need? As long as it’s not something unreasonable, I can get it for you.”
“Don’t worry, I just need some common things,” Evan replied with a nod and listed what he wanted.
Leon raised an eyebrow as he listened to Evan’s requests, but after a moment of consideration, he nodded his head.
“The first two things are easy to handle, but as for the third, I’ll give you an answer by tomorrow.”
“Sure,” Evan agreed, not minding waiting for a day or two.
Soon after, Emma finished collecting the body of the S-rank Silver Titan Bear and stored it in her storage ring.
With the task completed, they all began to leave the forest. Eager to gather more information about this world, Evan decided to use his wind manipulation ability to wrap Leon and the others in a wind barrier, and in just a few seconds, he transported them directly in front of the city wall.
“This—” Leon and the others were dumbfounded when they realized they had immediately appeared in front of the city wall in just a few seconds.
‘I’ve seen people above S-rank fight against monsters a few times, but this… This is simply outrageous…’ Leon screamed inwardly as he realized he needed to report Evan’s presence to the other base cities.
“Shall we enter?” Evan asked calmly ignoring the shocked expressions on Emma and the others’ faces.
“Ye-yes,” Leon stammered, taking a deep breath to calm himself before nodding his head.
Leon led Evan towards the entrance of the city, where two B-rank hunters were standing guard.
‘There are definitely more high-level hunters here than back in Arora World. Even the people standing guard are B-rank…’ Evan thought as he entered the city along with Leon and the others.
“Hmmm?” Upon entering the city, Evan raised an eyebrow, noticing something he had previously overlooked when he had inspected it using his spiritual senses.
“This place looks more like a fortress than a city,” He muttered quietly, observing the many hunters patrolling the area and noticing that most of the items being sold were not meant for common civilians.
Because Leon was only a few meters away from him, he overheard Evan’s muttering and nodded his head in agreement.
“This place was created specifically to keep the monsters in the forest in check. We clear out some of the monsters in the forest every month to prevent their numbers from growing too large and causing a monster tide.”
“I see…” Evan nodded as he understood the city’s purpose. About ten minutes later, Leon brought Evan to a two-story building.
Emma and the other hunters had already gone back to their duties, so it was just two of them now.
“You can stay here for now. I’ll come by tomorrow to give you an answer about the requests you made earlier,” Leon said, handing Evan a bracelet.
“This is the communication device you asked for. It has everything you need.”
“I can use the internet through this, right?” Evan asked while taking the black bracelet from Leon.
Leon’s mouth twitched slightly as he thought. ‘He really is like a caveman.’
But he still nodded in response.
“Good,” Evan nodded in satisfaction upon hearing he could access the internet through the bracelet, as it would make it much easier for him to gather the information he needed.
“Well, then I’ll see you tomorrow,” Leon said seeing Evan nodding his head and left from there.
At first, Leon thought about sending a hunter to keep an eye on Evan, but after remembering Evan’s immense power, he quickly dismissed the idea, knowing that Evan would easily detect any attempts to monitor him directly.
Instead, Leon chose to rely on the security cameras installed throughout the city to monitor Evan’s movements.
‘It won’t be difficult to track him using the cameras, and I don’t get the feeling that he’s here to cause any trouble,’ Leon thought to himself before disappearing from view.
Evan didn’t care about what Leon was thinking and went inside the house. As he entered, a spacious, furnished living room greeted his eyes.
He looked at the bracelet in his hand and after putting it on, he sat down on the sofa in the living room and activated it. Immediately, a holographic screen appeared in front of him.
Without wasting time on unnecessary things, Evan opened the search engine to look for the information he needed.
However, the moment he accessed the search engine, a news article flashing at the top caught his attention, and he noticed something unusual.
“This…” Evan narrowed his eyes when he noticed a picture in the article and clicked on it.
Soon, the news article opened, and when he saw the picture clearly, his eyes widened in shock.
“What the hell is she doing here?” He muttered in disbelief.
