Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 1319

Chapter 1319: Phoenix Clan (Part 3)
Blaze stepped out of the shabby roadside restaurant, holding a bright red token in her hand. The bob-cut-haired girl wore a simple dress, making her look like an ordinary young lady from a humble household.

Even the people passing by the restaurant didn’t recognise that the woman standing in front of the restaurant was a Rank Three phoenix.

The last time she met Evan, she had given him a token to contact her when he decided to visit the Phoenix Clan.

She had received his message yesterday and informed him of their meeting place. Just now, she had been discussing his matter with the Rank Five Elder of her clan—who had accompanied her—when she noticed the token in her hand reacting to something.

Seeing its response, she immediately understood that the token she had given to Evan was nearby and stepped outside to meet him.

And as she expected, the moment she came out, she saw a lazy-looking man with gray hair walking toward her with a smile.

“I missed you so much, sister.”

Hearing his enthusiastic voice, Blaze suddenly felt a sense of foreboding, and her danger sense buzzed in warning.

She already knew this guy had a crooked personality and couldn’t be trusted, but at this moment, she finally confirmed—he was definitely here with bad intentions.

What’s more, the thief-like appearance of the hunched old man walking behind Evan only reinforced her suspicions.

Though wary, Blaze wasn’t anxious. This time, she had brought a Rank Five Elder from her clan with her.

She could sense that Evan was still a Mid-Level Rank Three Core Evolver, the same as when she last saw him, and the old man was at the Peak of Rank Three.

Even if they were strong, against a Rank Five Core Evolver, they wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Thinking about all these factors, Blaze felt more confident. Despite knowing her cheap brother was here with ulterior motives, she smiled politely and nodded.

“I didn’t see you for just a few days, and you seem to have become even stronger,” She said, feigning admiration.

“Indeed…” Evan nodded shamelessly. “I am very strong now. If I want, I can pinch you to death with just my pinky finger.”

Hearing Evan, Blaze’s polite smile stiffened and she suddenly had the urge to kick him in the face.

‘Why doesn’t this bastard play by the rules? Shouldn’t he act modestly and return the compliment by praising me as well?’

Taking a deep breath to calm her rising blood pressure, she glanced around.

“Did only the two of you come?” She asked, slightly puzzled.

“Don’t worry, I have full authority over this matter. If we reach a cooperation, I will introduce you to the others,” Evan responded calmly.

Despite knowing there was a Rank Five Core Evolver inside the restaurant, he asked with a confused look.

“You didn’t come alone, right? I know your status in the clan is quite high, but it shouldn’t be high enough for you to take the lead in discussing the matters I brought up last time.”

Blaze’s mouth twitched slightly. She felt like he was looking down on her. Puffing out her chest slightly, she spoke in a proud voice.

“I am not alone. But I do have the authority to take part in the discussion, and if I am not satisfied, I can end the deal right away.”

“Oh…” Evan raised an eyebrow in mild surprise as he hadn’t expected his stupid sister to have such power.

‘Now that I think about it, I have never tried to find out what my cheap sister’s status is in the Phoenix Clan… Maybe her position is higher than I thought.’

As the thought crossed his mind, Evan smiled at Blaze and nodded approvingly.

“As expected from my sister, you didn’t let me down.”

The corners of Blaze’s lips lifted slightly upon hearing his words, but the next second, her face froze.

‘Why am I feeling proud after hearing his praise?’

Shaking her head, she quickly snapped back to reality, her expression turning serious.

Demonic magic!

This bastard was using some kind of demonic charm to make her lower her guard.

“Come in. I will take you to meet the Elder.”

Evan nodded and followed Blaze inside. Sylvan walked a few steps behind him, his voice ringing in Evan’s mind.

‘That Rank Five Core Evolver has been using his spiritual sense to listen to everything you just said.’

Evan wasn’t surprised when he heard Sylvan’s words. In fact, ever since reaching Rank Four, his spiritual power had become significantly stronger and had been refined by the Power of Law.

Currently, his spiritual power was close to the Peak of Rank Four, and its purity was far higher than that of any Core Evolver at the same level.

Even though he couldn’t pinpoint the exact source, he had already sensed that someone had been spying on them using spiritual senses earlier.

That was precisely why he had deliberately mentioned having full authority over this matter while also confirming that only the two of them had come—ensuring that the hidden listener heard it.

‘I wonder what kind of trick he will try to pull after knowing all this,’ Evan mused, a faint glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

As Blaze led them deeper into the roadside restaurant, Evan found nothing unusual about the place. Even from the inside, it appeared to be just an ordinary establishment.

However, when they reached the third and final floor of the building, both Evan and Sylvan immediately sensed something strange.

Their gazes locked onto Room No. 302—which was situated in the middle of the corridor.

They could feel faint energy fluctuations coming from inside.

Blaze led them in front of the room but paused before opening the door. Pressing her lips together, she turned around and looked at Evan seriously.

“Are you sure what you told me last time is true? If you are playing any tricks this time, it will be dangerous for you.”

Evan raised an eyebrow at her serious expression but remained calm.

“Don’t worry, sister. I am not someone who plays tricks on others.”

Blaze rolled her eyes at his blatant lie but said nothing. Instead, she turned back and pushed the door open.
