Necromancer Of The Shadows



"Master, can you give me a name now?" after Evan told her what to tell dark guild shadow Layla asked him.

Evan was confused when he heard her and asked, "Why do you want a new name? Since you will be acting as the guild master of the sacred heart, you can just use your previous name"

"I will use that name when I will be in the guild, but I still want a different name from Master," shadow Layla said while looking at him with anticipation.

Evan's mouth twitched and he was tempted to give her the name 'Shadow Layla' and finish this rucks.

But seeing her anticipation filled gaze he wasn't able to say it.

Woosh -!

Suddenly three more shadows shot out from his shadow storage, and the shadow hippo along with the other two also appeared before him.

And just by seeing their anticipation filled looks, he can guess that they also wanted a name.

"What a headache?" Evan muttered while rubbing his chin.

If it is up to him he would have given them names like A1, A2 and so on. And from the looks on their face, he is certain that they will accept those names without saying anything. 

They just want a name from him no matter what is it. 

And since from now on they are going to help him, he also felt if he just gave them some half baked names he will be an a*shole. 

"You can use illusion element right?" Evan asked while looking at shadow Layla.

"Yes," shadow Layla nodded her head.

"Alright then, from now on your name will be Illusia" Evan said after thinking for about ten seconds.

He knows his naming sense is a bit twisted which is why he tried his best to come up with a good name that will suit her.

"Illusia" shadow Layla muttered and a happy smile appeared on her face, "good, from now on I shall be known as Illusia"

Evan also sighed in relief seeing she was happy with the name.

After Illusia, he looked at his second shadow undead, the hippo. He rubbed his chin and pondered for some time while looking at it.

"Since you can use water element and Aquaville city is also famous for its water view, how about I give you the name Aqua," Evan said after thinking for about two and a half seconds.

'Even though this hippo is clearly a male and Aqua sounds like a female name, it is not like anyone will care about such small things. The most important thing is that the name must sound pleasant to ears' Evan thought to himself after giving shadow hippo its name. 

"Gree" Aqua nodded its head while grunting, and looks quite happy after receiving its name. 

After Aqua, Evan looked at the Cyclops. 

The Cyclops was five meters tall. It was good that the ceiling of the room was quite high, so it was able to fit in the room without a problem. 

The body of Cyclops was weaker than orcs by a small margin, but unlike orcs, they can use skills, so in overall comparison, they were more powerful than orcs. 

Evan looked at its appearance while deep in thought. The one eye at the centre of its forehand was burning with purple flame giving an eerie feeling. A big pointy horn was coming out from the centre of its head. Its hand and feet were quite muscular while its stomach was completely round giving it a chubby appearance. 

"Nekros, from now on your name will be Nekros" Evan said after thinking for about seven seconds. 

"Gruhh" Aqua made a dissatisfied sound while looking at Nekros. It was angry that Evan gave it a name after thinking for about seven seconds, while its name only took two and a half seconds. 

For some reason, it was feeling its name is fake. 

Of course, it was not angry at Evan but at Nekros. 

It was unreasonable but that's how it is, it was demanding a name exchange with Nekros. 

"Eoo" Nekros ignored Aqua and bowed its head at Evan after receiving its name. 

After bowing when it raised its head, Evan can swear he saw Nekros showing a smug smile to Aqua like it was mocking it. 

"Gruhh" Aqua made a threatening sound seeing the smug smile of Nekros. 

Evan was happy that Aqua wasn't wearing a glove or it would have already thrown it at Nekros to challenge it for exchanging the name. 

'It is fine as long as they don't start a fight' Evan thought and ignored both of them. 

He looked at his last shadow undead. 

It was a panther and it was the only one who was at the B rank among his shadow undead. 

Aqua and Nekros are at B+ rank while Illusia is at A rank. 

After turning into shadow undead, the panther was pitch black in colour, in other words, it was a black panther. 

After seeing it Evan did not even think for a second before one word automatically came into his mind. 

"Yibambe!" Evan said while looking at the panther. 

The B rank panther was stunned. 

Illusia was stunned. 

Nekro and Aqua were also stunned and stopped fighting. 

All three of them looked at the black panther who was standing with a dazed look on its face, and the next second 

"Hahaha," Illusia started to laugh like there is no tomorrow. 

"Ghhhh" Aqua and Nekros also followed and started to laugh while giving the panther a pitiful look. 

The black panther looked at Evan for some time before lowering its head, and a depressed aura started to come out from its body.

Evan was stunned when he saw what was happening, but he soon understood why they were laughing.

Illusia and others were laughing at the black panther because Evan did not even think for a second before giving it a name.

In their eyes, its name is completely fake.

"Ghhhh" Evan was completely speechless when he saw Aqua who was just fighting with Nekros for name exchange walk in front of the black panther and started to mock it.

The poor black panther continues to look at the floor of the room without lifting its head.

Even though it wanted to beat down Aqua it was just B rank, and can't fight against Aqua who is a B+ rank.

From the depressed expressions of the black panther, Evan was sure that it would have already committed suicide if not for the fact that it is already dead.

"Why are you all laughing? I am still thinking about the name for your junior brother don't disturb me" Evan wasn't able to see the black panther in such a depressed state and said in a stern voice.

"Huh, master but did not you already give it a name?" Illusia asked while looking at him with a confused face.

Aqua who was laughing was also stunned feeling the script is wrong.

"When did I say it was your junior brother's name, I was just thinking about other things and spoke out loud. Now don't make a sound, I am thinking about its name" Evan said and closed his eyes pretending to be deep in thought like he was thinking about an important matter.

Actually, he already thought of a good name for the black panther but was taking more time intentionally so that it won't think its name is fake again.

The depressed aura around the black panther also disappeared, and it was now looking at Evan with a hopeful gaze.

Soon more than fifteen seconds passed by.

Aqua was already looking at the black panther with narrowed eyes, it was ready to initiate a name-exchange challenge.

"Alright, from now on your name will be Eclipse" After some time when Evan thought it was enough he finally opened his eyes and said.
