Necromancer Of The Shadows

"Sorry, can you repeat what you just said?" Evan asked with a baffled look on his face, feeling as if his ears were not working properly.

Zalga nodded upon hearing Evan and spoke in the same tone of speech.

"Mother Edlesa agreed to catch you because she wants your genes."

Velgoth, who was standing behind Evan nearly lost focus on what he was doing upon hearing Zalga and looked at the two Rank Six Core Evolvers and Evan strangely, feeling like he was watching some kind of drama.

"Correct me if I am wrong..." Evan took a deep breath to suppress the uneasiness he was feeling and spoke in a deep voice.

"If I understand your meaning clearly, on the surface, your Mother Edlesa wants my children, but if we dive deeper, then she wants to use me as a breeding machine, right?"

Krythorion and Zalga pondered Evan's words and, after thinking for a moment, both nodded their heads.

"You are absolutely correct..." Zalga said with a sigh. "You are very lucky. You don't know, but there are billions of people who want to have children with Mother Edlesa, but not anyone can approach her."

Evan remained expressionless when he heard Zalga, not caring about the glory of the Mother Edlesa he was speaking about.

At the same time, he felt regretful that Anastasia wasn't here. He was sure that if she were here, he wouldn't even have to do anything—she would have already strangled Zalga and the others to death after hearing what they said.

'My charm is so high that even an insect wants a piece of me, huh...' He thought narcissistically, though obviously, he had no intention of going with Krythorion and Zalga.

Not to mention, he had no interest in becoming an insect breeding machine; he knew that the reason this insect mother wanted to capture him was because someone asked her to do it on their behalf.

He didn't know their intention, but his gut told him it wasn't anything good.

Evan took a deep breath and looked at Krythorion and Zalga for a moment before he opened his mouth and spoke in a serious voice.

"Originally, I wanted to kill all of you as soon as you appeared in front of me, but considering that you didn't show any hostility towards me after coming here and even answered my questions, I will give you a chance..."

As he spoke, the aura around Evan changed completely, and everything—including the space and the world essence around him—began to disintegrate as if some powerful force was erasing them from existence.

Krythorion and Zalga's expressions changed when they felt the change in Evan's aura, and a small feeling of threat engulfed them.

The threatening feeling was very small, and they knew it couldn't cause much harm to them, but considering the difference in their ranks, it still shocked Zalga and Krythorion that Evan could pose a threat to them.

"You have two options..." Evan didn't care about the change in Krythorion and Zalga's expressions. "First, you go back the way you came here, and second..."

The area behind Evan turned completely black, and in the pitch-black darkness, a vague figure sitting on a throne was visible. The figure had one golden and one black eye, and a terrifying aura of fear spread outward in all directions from the figure.

"You can try to catch me and be buried here."

For a second, when Krythorion and Zalga heard Evan's words and felt the gaze of the figure sitting in the darkness, they felt as if they were being stared down by a supreme being that could kill them with a single finger.

However, as soon as this strange feeling spread in their mind, their powerful spiritual power surged, and the strange feeling immediately disappeared.

Although the strange feeling vanished, the darkness and the vague figure on the throne in the shadows remained, and the strange aura of nothingness still hovered around Evan, disintegrating everything. ƒreewebɳovel.com

If it had been any other Rank Three Core Evolver who had told them they would be buried here if they fought, Zalga and Krythorion would have sneered in their face.

But at this moment, they didn't say anything and took Evan's words seriously.

Although they had been casually talking to Evan, both of them had been using their spiritual senses this whole time to see if anything was wrong with their surroundings.

Earlier, Evan had asked them if they were the ones who came to catch him, meaning that even before they arrived, he had been aware of them.

Despite knowing they were coming, Evan had not run away and dared to confront them, which meant he definitely had some means to fight back.

But, although Zalga and Krythorion knew Evan had some kind of plan and wasn't joking when he said they would be buried here, they didn't choose to retreat.

"I think you don't know, but in our insect race, the command we receive from Mother Edlesa is absolute. So, even if we want to go back, we can't before we capture you," Krythorion said in a calm voice, and his baseball-like eyes began to glow with fighting spirit.

"And honestly, even if I could retreat, I wouldn't because, since the moment I heard about you, I have wanted to fight you."

"You want to fight me despite knowing you will die?" Evan asked with a raised eyebrow.

Hearing Evan, Krythorion shook his head, and a domineering aura erupted from his body, shaking hundreds of thousands of kilometres of the area and pressing down on Evan.

"It's not certain who will win or who will lose."

As Krythorion spoke, Zalga and Groola also released their auras, and for a moment, the entire Azragoth World shook as if this artificially created world would collapse at any moment.

"You are wrong..." Evan's lips arched upward when he heard Krythorion's words, and he raised one of his hands. "The outcome of this battle has long been decided."

As Evan raised his hand, a portal opened in front of him and a terrifying aura, no weaker than Krythorion and the others erupted from it, and a figure walked out of it.
