Necromancer Of The Shadows



Evan followed Sebastian, wondering what he wanted to talk to him.

Soon they left the building and reached the academy's garden. Since it was daytime very few people were present there.

"Your acting is quite good," suddenly Sebastian said as they entered the garden.

Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard him but did not say anything.

"You know there are many strange things in this world." Sebastian stopped walking and looked at him, "And one of them is skills. Have you forgotten that there are many people in this world who have skills that they can use to easily tell whether someone is telling the truth or a lie?

'Sh*t' When Evan heard Sebastian, he couldn't help but curse himself, he actually forgot that it is not rare for people to have this kind of skill.

He looked at Sebastian and saw he was looking at him with a calm smile.

"What do you want?" Evan directly asked him because he knew there must be a reason Sebastian did not expose him earlier.

Sebastian rolled his eyes when he heard Evan. "I don't need anything from you."

When Evan heard him, he was surprised and looked at him with a suspicious look on his face.

"Don't look at me like this, I did not expose you because of Valery" Sebastian said when he saw Evan was looking at him suspiciously.

"What do you mean?"

"You saved her from Carlos, right? This can be considered repayment for that" Sebastian said and then a serious look appeared on his face. "Even though I haven't exposed you, there are a few things I'd like to know to make sure I haven't made the wrong decision."

Evan looked at Sebastian's serious face for a while before nodding, "What do you want to know?"

"First, tell me what was that golden lightning?"

Hearing Sebastian's question, Evan shrugged his shoulders, "To be honest, I don't know what that golden lightning was. I was just advancing to the next rank when it came through the portal and fell on me."

"At first, I thought I am going to die, but that lightning didn't harm me and disappeared after touching my body"

Sabestian eyes opened wide when he heard Evan because he could tell that he was telling the truth.

"You were completely unharmed after getting struck by that lightning?" Sebastian asked with a shocked look on his face. He still remembers how he felt fear from the depth of his soul after seeing that lightning.

Evan could understand what Sabestian was thinking so he just nodded his head.

"How is that possible?" Sebastian muttered in a low voice not wanting to believe on Evan. "I bet even an S rank hunter would have died if he had been hit by that lightning"

"What else do you want to know?" Evan asked after answering about the golden lightning.

Sebastian took a deep breath to calm down and looked at Evan with a weird gaze wondering how he is still alive after getting struck by that lightning.

But he soon calmed down and asked another question that shocked Evan.

"Were you the one who killed Adam?"

Evan looked at Sebastian with his eyes wide open. Sebastian smirked when he saw Evan's shocked look.

"How do you know that it was Adam who died there, I even destroyed his body before I left?" Evan knew it was useless to lie, so instead of lying, he asked the question that was most important to him.

"The gravity in that area was completely distorted, and in Astrate city, only Adam was the one who could use such powerful gravity-related skill," Sebastian said appearing calm on the outside, but inside he was screaming loudly.

Adam was one of the strongest A rank hunters. Due to his rare gravity element even an A+ rank hunter could not kill him easily.

But now Evan was saying he was the one who killed him.

If it weren't for the fact that Sebastian could tell that Evan wasn't lying, he wouldn't have believed him.

'He is just a B+ rank hunter. How could he kill him?'

Evan was unaware of the shock that Sebastian was feeling and nodded his head when he heard him.

'I thought I had left something behind that belonged to Adam, which is why they found out that Adam was killed.' Evan thought and shook his head.

"Do you want to ask anything else?" Evan asked after confirming that he did not leave anything behind.

Sebastian was speechless when he saw Evan's casual behaviour.

"Tell me why you killed him, and you better have a good reason for it," Sebastian said in a serious voice, feeling tired for the first time since becoming an S Ranker.

"He wanted to kill me so I killed him," Evan said casually, ignoring Sebastian's serious look, and told him everything from the beginning.

First, he told him about his conflict with Jack and how Adam got involved in it.

"So they wanted to keep you as a prisoner but you were far stronger than they thought, so you broke the barrier they created and then killed them," Sebastian asked in a dazed voice.

"Right," Evan nodded his head.

Sebastian opened his mouth to ask how he killed Adam despite being a B+ rank hunter but closed it because he felt it would be too much.

Every hunter has his own secrets and he understands it very well.

Suddenly Adam remembered something and he looked at Evan with a strange look.

"When Margaret went over there to see what was happening, she saw Olivia in the middle of the mana storm, could it be…" Sebastian didn't finish his sentence but from Evan's twitching mouth, he already knew he was the one who framed Olivia.

'Does he have a strange fetish of changing his appearance while committing a crime?' Sebastian thought but then shook his head.

"Did you frame her because of what she did to you?" Since Evan told him why Jack wanted to capture him, it was clear that he told him about Olivia as well.

"I am planning to kill her tomorrow so I thought it would be a nice Farwell gift" Evan replied to Sebastian with a warm smile on his face.

"So you framed her because you are planning to kill... What?" Sebastian shouted out loud when his brain finally registered Evan's words.
