Necromancer of The Shadows - Chapter 887: I Am Going To Kill This Vampire Bastard!

“Damn it, I thought I could finally start my plan about the shadow realm, but this incident…” Baphomet said in a voice filled with rage as he walked deeper into a corridor.

The number of demons who entered the Tomb of the Ancient was one thousand.

Normally, each time the Tomb opens, the number of casualties suffered by each faction, even in the worst-case scenario does not exceed one hundred.

But a few days ago, many of the top factions lost numerous members who entered the Tomb.

The demon faction suffered the highest casualties, with more than three hundred demons dying inside the Tomb.

For Baphomet, the worst thing was that even Zorda, who was the strongest rank two demon who entered the Tomb died.

Baphomet was a very ambitious person and wanted to become the strongest individual throughout Utopia. But by relying solely on his own strength, it was impossible for him to achieve his goal as there were many other individuals in Utopia with similar power level as him such as Eilistraea and the other monarchs.

Since he couldn’t become the strongest just by relying on his strength alone, he invested heavily in the development of his demon army over the past few centuries to strengthen his Empire.

The demons who entered the Tomb this time were part of the group Baphomet heavily invested in, especially Zorda, who was a very powerful Blood Demon with the potential to become a Rank Six Core Evolver.

When he received the news that Zorda and more than three hundred demons died yesterday, he was royally pissed.

The incident that occurred in the Tomb was very big and most of the factions in Utopia suffered heavy casualties, so news of this incident had already spread among the top leaders of the factions.

After walking for around a minute, Baphomet stopped in front of a door. He opened the door, revealing an empty room resembling a meeting room and entered without any change in expression.

After entering the room, he sat down on one of the chairs, and the moment he sat down, the chair in front of him lit up, projecting a holographic image of Eldrakar.

“You are late,” Eldrakar said in a plain voice seeing Baphomet.

“Look, Eldrakar, I’m not in the mood for idle chatter, so hurry up and say already why you wanted to talk to me,” Baphomet said in an impatient tone as he had to arrange many things regarding the incident that happened in the Tomb and his plan to attack the Shadow Realm.

“It seems you are quite busy because of the Shadow Realm, huh,” Eldrakar didn’t react much when he heard Baphomet’s impatient tone and said calmly.

Baphomet didn’t react upon hearing Eldrakar’s statement as he was the one who told him about his plans regarding the Shadow Realm, and some of the dragons would also take part in the attack.

Seeing Baphomet didn’t say anything after hearing him, Eldrakar sighed and spoke in a serious voice. “Do you want to enter the Tomb of the Ancient with me?”

The annoyance Baphomet was feeling instantly disappeared when he heard Eldrakar and his eyes narrowed.

“What do you mean?”

“I meant what I said earlier. I have recently developed a skill that can help me enter restricted realms like the Tomb of the Ancient without destroying it. So I want to know, do you want to enter the Tomb with me?”

Hearing Eldrakar, Baphomet looked at him without showing any expression on his face.

lightsvεl m Although he did not show any expression, deep down, he was quite shocked that Eldrakar had created a skill that could allow him to enter the Tomb of the Ancient.

Baphomet didn’t doubt Eldrakar’s claim as he had no reason to lie to him, so instead of asking what kind of skill he had developed, he asked the question that interested him.

“Why are you asking me to come with you? The Tomb of the Ancient is like a treasure chest filled with rare resources, so why do you want to take me with you?”

“If I say I want to take you with me because of our friendship, will you believe me?”

Baphomet didn’t say anything upon hearing Eldrakar and looked at him with a flat look on his face.

Seeing Baphomet’s expression, Eldrakar wasn’t surprised, so he said with a sigh, “I was originally planning to enter alone after a few days, but because of the incident that happened in the Tomb, I decided to take you with me.”

Hearing Eldrakar, Baphomet raised an eyebrow and asked in a mocking voice, “Don’t tell me you are afraid of entering alone?”

Eldrakar wasn’t angry hearing Baphomet’s mocking voice and said in a calm voice.

“I am not afraid, Baphomet. I am just being cautious. Both of us know the history of that place, and I just don’t want to take unnecessary risks.”

Baphomet had no words to refute when he heard Eldrakar, as he was also aware of the history of the Tomb of the Ancient and knew that many rank five and rank six core evolvers were killed inside it.

He thought about Eldrakar’s offer for a bit and after a moment, nodded his head.

“When are you planning to enter?”

“I need to settle down a few things because of the death of the dragons that happened, so let’s enter after a month.”

Baphomet thought for a moment and nodded his head, as he also had to settle down a few things.

“By the way, is the Bloodmoon Auction House planning to auction something rare?” Eldrakar suddenly asked.

Baphomet shook his head upon hearing Eldrakar.

“I don’t know…” He said and asked in a curious voice, “Why are you asking this?”

Eldrakar shrugged his shoulders upon hearing Baphomet and said in a plain voice, “I just heard one of the Dukes of the Bloodmoon Empire went to meet the owner of the Bloodmoon Auction house, so I thought they might be planning to auction something rare.”

Baphomet raised an eyebrow upon hearing Eldrakar but didn’t think too much about it.

Eldrakar also didn’t care too much about the matter of the Bloodmoon Auction house and after discussing some matters about the Tomb, he disappeared from the meeting hall.

***

A few days…

Boom!

Inside Alaric’s hidden realm, a booming sound echoed and the body of a middle-aged man with short black hair wearing a black suit was thrown away.

The man was bleeding from all over his body and missing one of his arms. After being blasted away, he crashed to the ground and started to cough up blood.

While coughing out blood, he raised his head and looked at the short red-haired woman in front of him with horror-filled eyes.

“Wait, wait, you can’t kill him or there will be—”

“Shut up, Alaric! No matter what you say, I’m going to kill this vampire bastard today,” The red-haired woman didn’t let Alaric finish what he was saying and shouted in a voice filled with anger.

Alaric wanted to say something to the red-haired woman, but before he could, he saw her appear in front of the middle-aged man and smash his face using her hands.
