Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 1062

Chapter 1062: Devil’s Name? (Part 2)
Evan’s sudden appearance alarmed Leon, Emma, and the other hunters, causing the mana within their bodies to churn. It was obvious that all of them were ready to attack.

“Who are you?” Leon asked with a wary look on his face as ice mist emitted from his body.

Looking at the black-haired youth with an average-looking face, Leon didn’t feel anything as if the guy in front of him was just a normal human without any power.

This discovery frightened Leon because Evan was clearly not a normal person. Yet, he, an S-rank hunter couldn’t sense anything from him.

‘Could it be that this guy is also someone who is above S rank like them?’ Leon suddenly thought and his body tensed up.

Seeing the wary and scared look of Leon and the others, Evan didn’t know what to say, so he took a step back and raised his hand.

“You don’t have to be afraid of me. I don’t have any ill intentions towards you.”

Upon seeing Evan’s action, Leon was slightly surprised and his tensed body relaxed a bit. Although he didn’t see how Evan suddenly appeared in front of them, he was sure that with his speed, it would have been impossible for them to even react if Evan wanted to harm them. Though Leon sighed in relief because Evan didn’t attack them, he still didn’t drop his guard.

“Ummm… Can you tell me who you are and which base city you are from?”

‘Base City…’ Evan muttered the two words inwardly and felt confused.

When he used his spiritual senses earlier, he had already noticed that this Earth was very different from the Earth he knew.

Although there were a few similar things here, most of the things were still different from the original Earth. The size of the cities was very small, all the cities were built behind giant walls, and most of the planet was occupied by monsters.

‘What should I say? Should I say I am from New York? After all, the Statue of Liberty I saw using my spiritual senses must be located there, right?’ Evan’s mind raced as he tried to think of an answer, but after a few seconds, he gave up and said in a calm voice.

“I am not from any base city. I am a lone wanderer who travels all over the world, hunting monsters in the wilderness.”

“A lone wanderer,” Emma and the others’ eyes turned strange upon hearing Evan’s reply, and they looked at him with a weird expression.

Leon also felt Evan’s answer was ridiculous because everyone knew just how dangerous the area outside of the base cities was.

‘Hmmm… But considering his power, he might be telling the truth,’ Leon thought to himself.

Although he felt Evan was hiding something, he didn’t discard the possibility that he might be telling the truth.

“I see, so you are a wanderer, huh…” Leon nodded his head with a calm look on his face.

‘You believed him…’ Emma and the other hunters looked at Leon with a speechless expression, clearly baffled.

Leon ignored Emma and the others’ strange looks and asked another question.

“Just a few seconds ago, we felt a very powerful energy wave coming from the depths of the forest. Do you have any idea what it was?”

‘Powerful energy wave…’ Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard Leon and suddenly thought about the aura he had accidentally released earlier. ‘So these guys came here because of my aura, huh.’

He thought for a second and replied in a calm voice.

“Before you guys came here, I just fought against an S-rank monster. I think the energy waves you felt must be from my fight against that S-rank monster.”

“Fight against an S-rank monster…” Leon and the others’ expressions changed when they heard Evan.

“Yes,” Evan nodded and without anyone noticing, his spiritual senses covered the entire Forest.

He immediately found there were three S-rank monsters inside the forest and after looking at the three S-rank monsters, he decided to use the one closest to them.

“It was a five-meter-tall silver-coloured bear. I was leaving the forest when it suddenly attacked me. Unfortunately for that guy, I was prepared for it and killed it.”

As Evan spoke, his spiritual senses pressed down on the Titan Bear, which was around two hundred kilometres away from him, and its brain immediately turned to mush, wiping out its life force.

“You… You killed the Silver Titan Bear?” Emma asked in a shocked voice.

“Yes, if you want, I can take you to see its body.”

“Wait, wait…” Emma pressed her hand on her forehead and took a deep breath. “You said you killed the Silver Titan Bear, right?”

Evan looked at the bob-cut black-haired woman who had an unnatural expression and nodded his head.

Seeing Evan nodding, she once again took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.

“And you want us to follow you if we want to see its dead body?”

“Well, if you guys want to see the dead of the bear, then I can lead you. If not, then forget it,” Evan said with a shrug of his shoulders and at the same time, thought about leaving from there.

‘If I need information about this place, I can simply ask other people in the city who will not act as cautiously as them…’ He thought to himself.

But when he remembered the white light that changed his teleportation location, some doubts emerged in his heart.

‘Although I’m guessing that the white light might be related to that Peak Rank Five Stone Man, if I’m wrong, it’s obvious that someone has deliberately disrupted my teleportation…’

Evan looked at the hunters in front of him and his eyes flashed.

‘If someone really sent me here intentionally, then it is clear there must be something special about this place. Only high-level people like these guys can provide me with the information I need.’

“Hey, you are fooling us, right? There is no way you would kill an S-rank monster and leave its body in the forest. Have you set some kind of trap inside the forest and want to lure us there so that you can deal with us?”

Evan came out of his thoughts hearing Emma’s suspicious voice and saw her looking at him with narrowed eyes.

‘Left the body of an S-rank monster…’ Hearing Emma, Evan immediately understood what she was trying to say.

The body of an S-rank monster is very valuable. Be it for creating artifacts or potions, a high-level monster’s body can be used in many ways, and Evan just said he did not bring the body of the S-rank monster after killing it and left it in the forest.

‘Man, I completely forgot the body of an S-rank monster is very valuable in this world,’ He sighed inwardly but his expression didn’t change.

“It’s up to you whether you believe me or not…” He said and looked at Emma with a slight smile on his face. “As for the thing about preparing a trap to kill all of you….”

Evan simply flicked his finger in Emma’s direction and released some of his power. The moment Evan flicked his finger, the space split in a straight line, leaving behind a long trail of a five-centimeter-wide void rift that barely missed Emma’s head. “I don’t need to lure you into any trap if I want to kill you.”

Emma, Leon, and the others felt a chill run down their spines when they saw the long trail of the void rift that was slowly recovering and gulped their saliva.

‘Fu*k, now I am sure. This guy is definitely above S-rank just like them,’ Leon cursed inwardly and quickly spoke.

“Of course, we believe you. There is no way someone as powerful as you will play tricks on us, right, Emma.”

Emma gulped her saliva when she heard Leon and looking at the slowly recovering void rift just a few centimetres away from her, she nodded her head like an obedient child.

“Leon is right, I am sorry for doubting you. There is no way someone like you would set a trap just to kill us.”

Evan smiled when he saw this and once again asked, “So, do you guys still want the body of that bear or should we go back to the city?”

Leon scratched his face when he heard Evan and spoke in a somewhat embarrassed voice.

“It would be a waste of resources to leave something like that here, so we should take it with us.”

Evan nodded hearing Leon and started to fly deeper into the forest.

Leon took a deep breath upon seeing this and along with the other hunters, quickly followed after him.

After a minute, when his heart finally calmed down, Leon introduced himself.

“By the way, I am Leon, the commander of the fifth base city and she is Emma, the vice commander of the city.”

“I am Ev—” Hearing Leon, Evan was also about to introduce himself, but suddenly, he thought about something and decided to use his Earth name. “I am Ray.”

The expressions of Leon and the others had already returned to normal, but when they heard Evan introducing himself as Ray, their expressions once again changed.

Evan noticed the change in their expressions and was about to ask what happened, but before he could…

“I didn’t expect there would still be someone who would use the same name as that devil,” He heard the low muttering voice of an A+ rank hunter and his face turned strange.
