Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 1029

Chapter 1029: Beginning Of Auction (Part 2)
Leaving the Black Mountain Range, Evan returned to the Magmara Kingdom.

After arriving, he went to the hotel they had booked to meet with Anastasia and the others.

He had spent two days in the Black Mountain Range, so he assumed Anastasia, Ashley, and the others would have already returned after completing their tasks. However, when he returned to the hotel, he found that all four of them were still not back.

“Strange, they just needed to create two formations, so why aren’t they back yet…” Evan muttered to himself, wondering if all four of them had gone out for a walk after coming back.

Thinking they might be out, he took out his communication crystal and tried calling Anastasia. But when he called her, he realized he couldn’t contact her.

Evan frowned when he wasn’t able to contact her, but the frown on his face soon relaxed as he thought about something.

“Looks like she’s inside a space isolation formation…” He said to himself and shook his head.

He knew that Anastasia’s power was very high, so he didn’t think she would encounter any danger. Moreover, she was with Sylvan, Ashley, and Alaric. Other than Ashley, all three of them were Rank Six Core Evolvers, so it was simply impossible for anyone to harm them with that kind of lineup.

‘Moreover, Ashley’s understanding of the law of space is very high, so it wouldn’t be difficult for them to get away even if they met some kind of unforeseen circumstance,’ Evan thought and slumped down on his bed in his room. As he did, Elora came out of his soul space and sat on his stomach, looking at him with puppy eyes.

Evan sighed when he saw this and looked at the table beside his bed. Pressing on top of the table, he summoned a holographic screen showing the different kinds of food the hotel had to offer.

“Go ahead and order whatever you want,” He said to Elora after activating the holographic screen.

Seeing the images of the food on the menu, Elora immediately leapt towards it and started to order one dish after another.

Evan looked at the small red-haired girl and wondered what kind of race Elora belonged to.

‘From the small details that Azroth spoke of, I can tell she used to be quite powerful since, according to him, she once terrorized the entire Origin Universe…’ He thought inwardly, looking at Elora who was already drooling.’

Seeing her drooling, Evan suddenly thought of something and his expression turned strange.

‘I didn’t think about it before, but isn’t Elora a weapon spirit? How can she eat food like normal people if Azroth turned her into a weapon spirit?’

Evan had read a few things about weapon spirits, but none of the texts he had read ever mentioned that weapon spirits could eat like normal people.

‘Is it normal, or is Elora special in this regard?’ He wondered and decided to ask Anastasia once she came back.

Soon, the food Elora had ordered arrived on the table. The table had a small teleportation formation engraved on it so the hotel staff could send the food directly to their room.

Seeing the table full of food, Elora’s drool overflowed and she started to eat without hesitation.

Seeing Elora eating like a hungry child who hadn’t eaten anything for almost a week, Evan shook his head and asked her.

“Elora, do you want to meet your uncle Biscuit?”

Hearing Evan, Elora stopped eating and furiously nodded her head with her mouth still stuffed with rice.

“Are you trying to become a squirrel or something?” Evan laughed when he saw Elora’s stuffed mouth and wiped the rice that was stuck to her face. “Since you want to meet him, we will go kidnap him after a few days and bring him back with us.”

The Tomb of the Ancient was near the Boundless Ocean, and when Azroth expelled all the monsters and people from the Tomb, they all appeared within the surroundings of the ocean.

The Gehenna Empire was not far away from the Boundless Ocean, and since he arrived in the Magmara Kingdom, he could feel his connection with Biscuit.

Hearing Evan, Elora showed a joyful expression and continued to eat. In her mind, she was thinking she would finally get back her chef.

Seeing Elora busy eating, Evan didn’t disturb her any further and sat down on the bed. He looked at his status window and checked his current understanding of Void Energy.

—) Current understanding of Void Energy: 27.96%

It had been almost a month since he came out of the Tomb of the Ancient, and he had focused on increasing his understanding of Void Energy.

He didn’t use the void crystals he found in the void space of the tomb, as he was planning to use them during the later stages.

The more he increased his understanding of Void Energy, the harder it became to progress further. If he used them now, it would be a waste since they could be more useful during the later stages when increasing his understanding of Void Energy would be even more difficult.

Although he didn’t use the void crystals and just cultivated normally, he still increased his understanding of Void Energy by another 1.96%, which was quite fast considering he spent only one or two hours each day on it.

“Now I am just a little bit away from reaching the peak of Rank Two. Once I reach the peak of Rank Two, I will need to increase my understanding of Void Energy to 75% if I want to break through to Rank Three,” Evan muttered with a pondering look on his face and closed his eyes, deciding to increase his understanding of Void Energy for the rest of the time he had left before the auction.

Two days after Evan came back from the Black Mountain Range, Anastasia and the others also returned to the hotel.

However, upon seeing that he was busy increasing his understanding of Void Energy, no one disturbed him.

Just like this, the remaining days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of the auction arrived.
