Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 729

Chapter 729: A Broken Authority (Part 3)
Evan walked out of the training room and rubbed his eyebrows. He glanced outside the house and noticed it was already morning.

“Cedar will be here soon…” Evan muttered and looked at his sweaty appearance. “I should take a shower before he comes.”

Cedar had mentioned that he would introduce other Dryads to him today. Evan thought it would not be appropriate for him to meet them while covered in sweat.

As Evan entered the bathroom and switched on the shower, his mind recalled the things that happened last night.

“Elysia was the essence clone of a World Level expert,” Evan said as cold drops of water fell on his body.

Evan first met Elysia in the ruins of the Verdant Wilds Dungeon. At that time, Evan didn’t know anything about the essence clones so he just thought that she was another monster of the dungeon who looked like an elf.

But later, he realized that Elysia was different from normal monsters, and her powers were far stronger than other monsters who were at the same rank as her.

“I never thought that she would recall memories about the conceptual energy and Domain” Evan muttered, feeling things regarding Elysia will not be simple in the future.

When Evan asked Elysia how she created her Domain so quickly, she told him that she just recalled some strange memories after becoming a Rank One Core Evolver.

When she sorted out those memories, she found those memories were information about the conceptual energy of light and domain.

When Evan summoned his shadow undeads in the training area last night, she was still digesting those memories at that time…. And the moment she finished digesting those memories, her understanding of the conceptual energy of light increased to a completely different level.

Because of her high understanding of conceptual energy, her world essence started to change into the conceptual energy of light.

In just a few seconds, 25 percent of her world essence was transformed into conceptual energy. She felt she could transform more of her world essence, but she would need to break through to Rank Two before she could continue to transform her World Essence.

Once 25 percent of her world essence turned into conceptual energy, the memories she recalled regarding the Domain came into play and she unknowingly created her domain.

When Evan heard Elysia’s explanation last night, he was so dumbfounded that he didn’t know what to say.

After some time, when he calmed down and asked her if she remembered anything else besides the information about the conceptual energy and domain, she told him that she had a faint feeling that she is somehow connected to a World Level expert.

When Evan heard this, he immediately concluded that Elysia was definitely the essence clone of a World Level Expert.

After confirming that Elysia was an essence clone, another question arose in Evan’s mind.

If she was an essence clone and not a real person, then how did he successfully turn her into a Shadow Undead?

According to his understanding of the essence clones, it should be impossible for him to turn an essence clone into a shadow undead after all, an essence clone is not a living being. It is just a clone made from the energy of a high level Core Evolver.

Although an essence clone can act like a living person, it is mainly due to the small portion of the soul that it possesses.

In order to give the essence clone an ego, it is necessary to plant a very small portion of the soul into it. This portion of the soul can be said to be negligible because it is so small that even if someone destroys it, the creator of the essence clone will recover in just a few months without doing anything.

“It is impossible for me to turn an essence clone into a shadow undead unless…” Evan muttered and narrowed his eyes.

There were two reasons that Evan could think of as to why he was successfully able to turn Elysia into a shadow undead.

First, the person who created Elysia and sent her to Arora World planted a very large portion of her soul into her and because of an unexpected accident, that large portion of the soul turned into a completely different soul. A soul that was not connected to anyone and was a completely different entity.

In other words, that essence clone was a bit similar to Hana. Just like how Hana came into existence from a part of Claire’s soul, Elysia is the same.

However, according to Evan’s understanding, no one would plant a large portion of their soul into an essence clone because it is very dangerous.

If they plant a large portion of their soul into an essence clone, it would be dangerous for them if anyone destroys that essence clone along with that portion of the soul.

People can afford small injuries to their souls, but if their souls get severely injured, there is a high chance that they will lose their lives.

Because of this reason, Evan believed that the person who created Elysia didn’t plant a large portion of her soul inside her.

Which lead him towards his second guess.

“The reason I was able to turn Elysia into a shadow undead was because of my Shadow Energy…” Evan muttered, looking at the black energy inside his core.

Evan knows that his Shadow Energy is made from the combination of three different kinds of conceptual energy.

The first energy is obviously the conceptual energy of Death!

Till now, other than the conceptual energy of death, Evan didn’t know what the other two energies were, but now he was absolutely sure about the second energy that was mixed in his shadow energy.

“The conceptual Energy Of Soul…” Evan said as his eyes flashed with bright light.

The moment Evan said these words, some of the soul seals placed on his soul started to shake.

“Looks like my guess is correct…” Evan said in a neutral tone, seeing the reaction of his soul seals.

According to Evan’s guess, the conceptual energy of the soul that is mixed inside his shadow energy did something which allowed him to turn Elysia, someone who had a very small portion of the soul into a shadow undead.

Although Evan felt his guess was very close to the truth, deep in his heart, there was a voice telling him that he was still missing something crucial.

Something that was very deeply related to his existence.

“I need to break these soul seals if I want to receive the answers to these questions,” Evan said as he turned off the shower and left the bathroom after cleaning himself.

After leaving the bathroom, he suddenly recalled something and his lips curved upwards.

“I might have to face some problems in the future because of Elysia’s origin, but for now, I at least got a broken authority from her that is very useful for me,” Evan said, looking at his status window with a satisfied expression on his face.
