Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 567

Chapter 567: Gaze Of Monarch (Part 1)
Naphliam City….

Nathan was reading a document with a focused look on his face. After reading the entire document, he nodded his head and handed the document to the D+ rank hunter who was standing in front of him.

“It’s a good plan, you can proceed with it,” Nathan said to Hunter who sighed in relief after hearing him.

“We will need some hunters who can use earth element skills to clear the area and help us speed up the construction of the buildings.”

“Just talk to Ron and he will arrange some hunters for you and your team,” Nathan said while waving his hand, indicating the D+ rank hunter to leave.

The D+ rank hunter nodded his head and left from there.

After the hunter left, Nathan took out his communication crystal and contacted Charles, an A+ rank hunter who was responsible for guarding the west side of the city.

“How is the situation?” He asked after the call was connected.

“Everything is fine for the time being.” Charles replied, “These monsters are not showing any kind of hostility towards us, and just patrolling the area around the West Gate.”

“Good, just keep an eye on them and inform me if something happens,” Nathan said and was about to end the call when Charles spoke once again.

“Sir, should we try t_”

“No” Nathan stopped Charles before he could finish speaking. “Don’t even think about messing with them.”

“But these monsters are not showing any kind of hostility towards us. Me and my team have been here for the last ten days and these monsters have not tried to attack us even once. I think we can move towards the West Gate and check out what these monsters are guarding.” Charles said in a slightly dissatisfied voice after hearing Nathan.

He was sure that the monsters in front of him were guarding a powerful treasure and Nathan and Ron were stopping them because they wanted to take that treasure for themselves.

Nathan rubbed his eyebrows when he heard Charles and felt like slapping him to death. Just by hearing his dissatisfied voice, he could already guess what he was thinking.

‘Not showing any hostility my a*s’ Nathan thought inwardly, remembering what had happened ten days ago when he and Ron tried to move towards the west gate.

It’s been eleven days since Evan lost consciousness after coming out of the Dream Realm.

Before Evan faced Noah, the fight that had happened between his shadow undeads and the monster army Damian was leading was very big. Most of the hunters that were present in the city were easily able to feel the massive fluctuations of mana that were coming out because of the fight.

Later that day, when Nathan and Ron went to check the location where the fight happened, all they saw were dead monsters. Other than the monsters’ dead bodies, they didn’t find anything else. The entire battlefield was dyed red because of monster blood.

When Nathan and Ron saw this, they were shocked and were not able to understand what had happened there. But soon they felt more mana fluctuations coming from the direction of the West Gate.

Nathan and Ron wanted to know what had happened so they moved towards the West Gate after feeling the mana fluctuations coming from that direction….. And when they were just two hundred kilometres away from the West Gate, they saw tens of A+ rank monsters patrolling the area in an orderly manner.

Ron was so shocked after seeing so many A+ rank monsters that he nearly fainted.

Nathan was different from Ron because he recognized the monsters that were patrolling the area.

‘These monsters are similar to the monsters summoned by that brat’ Nathan thought after seeing the black monsters with burning purple eyes.

“We need to element these monsters or they will destroy the entire city,” Ron said in a desperate voice after seeing so many monsters.

“They are not our enemy” Seeing Ron’s desperate expressions, Nathan told him about Evan and his summoning skill.

At first, Ron thought that Nathan was joking with him because he had never heard about a summoning skill that could summon so many high rank monsters, but looking at Nathan’s serious expression he had no choice but to believe him.

“By the looks of it, these monsters are guarding something. If they are indeed monsters summoned by your academy student then it would be fine for us to move forward, right?” Ron asked after hearing Nathan.

“I am not sure, but let’s try to talk to them,” Nathan said and they moved towards a group of shadow undeads to ask about Evan.

But when they were just one hundred meters away from the group of shadow undeads, both Nathan and Ron stopped moving.

Cold sweat appeared on their bodies and they looked behind the group of A+ rank monsters with a baffled look on their faces.

“I can feel the aura of five S rank monsters,” Ron said and turned around to leave.

Nathan also turned around and followed after Ron, “Just by feeling the killing intent that they are releasing, I am certain that they will attack us if we try to approach them.”

“I think we should just wait for the person who summoned them to come out,” Ron said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Nathan also nodded his head and did not argue with Ron.

Both Ron and Nathan did not even think about fighting against the monsters who released their killing intent because both of them knew that it was impossible for them to win against them.

“Ha” Nathan sighed lightly and took a deep breath to calm down after remembering what had happened that day, “Look Charles, I don’t care what you are thinking but I am warning you, don’t try to do something stupid or..”

Nathan did not finish his sentence and ended the call. Although he did not finish his sentence, Charles already knew what he wanted to say.

“This old fart…” Charles cursed after Nathan ended the call and looked at the group of shadow undeads that was patrolling in front of him.

“Team Leader, should we_”

“Forget it, who knows what that old fart would do to us if we got caught.” one of the members of Charles’s team was about to say something but Charles stopped him.

“What a waste, look at these monsters. They are just patrolling here and there like fools. If not because our ranks are low when compared to theirs I would have…” another member of the Charles team complained.

Thump! Thump!—-

Suddenly Charles and his team members dropped to their knees and their bodies started to shake. A look of horror appeared on their faces and they felt like their souls were about to leave their bodies.

Killing Intent, a strong killing intent filled the surroundings. The killing intent was so strong that even the surroundings around Charles and his team started to change and turned blood red in colour.

Charles tried to lift his head, but his instincts kept screaming at him to continue to look at the ground and don’t lift his head.

In fact, it was not only Charles and his team who were on their knees, the people of the entire Naphliam city and the monsters within thousands of kilometres of the area were on their knees.

Nathan’s body kept shaking and he lifted his head using all of his willpower to look toward the sky.

The moment Nathan lifted his head and looked towards the sky, his face lost all of its colour.

“J-just what the hell is going on?”
