Necromancer Of The Shadows

"Arghhhh," A loud scream rang out throughout the surroundings as a blue-skinned, limbless demon rolled on the ground in pain.

A black-coloured humanoid figure, bearing the features of an elf, looked at the rolling demon with a sadistic smile on its face and stomped down on top of his head, shattering one of the horns protruding from the demon's head.

"Argughh," The rolling demon once again screamed loudly and blood flowed out uncontrollably from his head when one of his horns was shattered.

The demon looked at the humanoid figure who had just broken one of his horns with terror-filled eyes and tried to drag his limbless body away from it.

Seeing the demon backing away in fear, the purple-burning eyes of the humanoid figure blazed in excitement and it immediately appeared in front of the demon.

"Plea—" The demon was scared shitless when the humanoid figure suddenly appeared in front of him and he wanted to beg it to stop, but before he could speak, a golden-coloured spear made of the light element pierced one of his eyes.

"Arghhhh, my eye," The demon screamed in pain and wanted to stop the blood flowing out of his destroyed eye using his hand, but when he tried to lift his hand, he once again realized he was limbless and couldn't do anything.

Even though he was a blood demon, he couldn't stop his bleeding using his skills because he ran out of world essence long ago as he was being tortured for many days already.

Evan, sitting on top of a stone, looked at screaming Zorda with an expressionless face.

After looking at Zorda for a few seconds, he glanced at Elysia who was looking at the demon with a smile on her face.

Feeling Evan's gaze, Elysia nodded her head and walked towards the demon. She stopped in front of Zorda, who was screaming in pain and stretched out her palm.

As she stretched out her palm, warm rays of light emanated from her hand and the demon's injuries started to heal.

Zorda felt the pain he was feeling decrease quite a bit because of Elysia's healing and some of his vitality was also restored.

Although he was being healed, Zorda didn't look happy; instead, his expression turned into one of pure fear and his limbless body started to shake.

"N-no no no, please kill me already. I can't ta—"

Swish!

"Tch, I shouldn't have healed your tongue," Elysia said in an annoyed voice when she heard the demon's voice and directly cut his tongue.

"Urghhh," the demon once again rolled on the ground in pain and looked at Evan with a pleading expression.

Evan's expression didn't change when he saw the demon's pleading look and he looked at Elysia, who stopped restoring Zorda's vitality upon feeling his gaze.

Once Elysia stopped restoring his vitality, Zorda showed an expression of despair and the next second...

"Arghh," The painful scream of the demon once again rang out throughout the surroundings as his body was pierced by tens of light spears.

Evan looked at the screaming demon without feeling any pity for him. Ten days ago, after the incident, he had used soul search on Zorda to see if he had told anyone else about the closed world of Dryads.

Using the Soul Search, he confirmed that the demon hadn't told anyone about the closed world of Drayds, but at the same time, because of using the Soul Search, he saw how he got information about the closed world from Carla.

Seeing the way he tortured her after finding out she was a Dryad, he was so angry that the boost he was getting from the Reaper's Wrath skill reached five times and even under the effect of The Cursed One Title, he felt as if he was about to lose his mind.

'How will I tell Cedar about this?' Evan ignored the screaming demon and looked at the gloomy sky of the second layer with an uncertain look on his face.

He knew that it wasn't his fault what happened to Carla as he just wanted to help her by giving her a wind and lightning sheep, but it was also true that Zorda targeted her because of the sheep he gave her.

If he had thought carefully before giving her a wind and lightning sheep, he would have realised that it wasn't a good idea to give her a wind and lightning sheep since he was also moving with it while showing his true appearance to everyone.

There was a bounty of millions of high-level essence stones on his head, so he should have known that people would target her after seeing her moving with the same monster as him.

'Fu*k,' Evan cursed inwardly and covered his face with one hand. It was the one time he was feeling this conflicted, so he didn't know what to do.

'Fu*k,' Evan cursed inwardly and covered his face with one hand. It was the one time he was feeling this conflicted, so he In the past, whenever a situation like this arose, his emotions were nullified by the Cursed One Title, but it wasn't happening anymore, so he didn't know how to handle this feeling.

As Evan was thinking of how he should tell Cedar and others about this, he noticed thousands of black monsters coming towards him.

Seeing his shadow undeads returning, Evan took a deep breath and shook his head.

"I will just tell him the truth when I meet him," He said and stood up from the rock he was sitting on.

Because of what happened to Carla, Evan wasn't in the mood to do anything, so in the past ten days, he just sent his shadow undeads all over the second layer to search for things.

Now they had explored most of the second layer, and the resources in Evan's possession were so abundant that he was sure it wouldn't be difficult for him to become a Rank Three Core Evolver in the shortest amount of time possible.

After standing up, Evan walked towards Zorda, who was screaming. Now that he was done with the second layer, he was planning to enter the first layer, but before going there, he needed to finish off the demon.

Zorda's eyes were destroyed by Elysia, so he didn't notice when Evan stopped in front of him.

Looking at the demon, who was having a hard time even in screaming, Evan sneered and without saying anything, pierced his chest using his hand and grabbed his heart.

Zorda's mouth opened wide when his heart was grabbed by Evan. He wanted to scream in pain, but Evan was not in the mood to hear his screams anymore, so he used a little bit of his strength and destroyed his heart, finally killing him.

After killing Zorda, Evan wanted to walk away without even bothering to take his body with him since the demon's body was already beyond repair.

But just as he was about to walk away, he suddenly thought about Asher, who was also a demon and whom he had successfully turned into a shadow undead despite the restriction on his shadow resurrection skill.

Evan didn't know why, but he stopped walking when he remembered this and looked back at Zorda's body. After gazing at the demon for a moment, he took a deep breath and activated the Shadow Resurrection skill.
