Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 853

Chapter 853: Sealing Ground (Part 1)
Octavius was taken aback when he heard Evan and looked at his right palm.

“What rune are you talking about?” He asked with a confused look on his face.

Evan frowned when he saw Octavius’s confused look and poured a little bit of his world essence inside his palm, making the Rune that seeped inside his hand during the second trial shine.

As the Rune shined, its outline appeared on Evan’s palm, making it possible for Octavius to see what it looked like.

“This Rune…” Octavius looked at the Rune on Evan’s palm for a moment and shook his head. “I don’t know anything about this Rune.”

“What do you mean you don’t know anything about this Rune?” Evan asked with a frown on his face. “Wasn’t that cave dimension under your control? Since that dimension was under your control you should know everything related to it.”

“Although I had control over that dimension, it doesn’t mean I know everything about it. Did you forget, you were the one who created it not me…” Octavius said in a helpless voice. “… Not only that but because of not having enough energy, I spent most of my time sleeping and never got a chance to explore that dimension. You can’t blame me for not knowing everything about that place.”

Evan opened his mouth to say something but no words came out.

‘Damn that guy, couldn’t he have left behind a user manual or something to explain everything about that cave dimension,’ Evan cursed inwardly and rubbed his forehead.

“Although I am not sure, but if my guess is correct, this Rune might be related to teleportation or an entry permit to enter a hidden or locked area.”

While Evan was lost in his thoughts, he heard Octavius’s slightly uncertain voice.

“Something related to teleportation or an entry permit?” Evan looked at the old man, indicating him to continue.

“I am not fully sure, but I had seen a rune similar to it in another secret realm a few thousand years ago. That Rune was a token of some sort. Using that rune, its owner could enter inside a locked area of the secret realm, so this rune might also be something similar.”

Hearing Octavius, Evan’s eyes opened wide.

‘Could it be…’ He looked inside his shadow storage and saw the Ancient Alchemy Chest, Destruction Lightning Ball, and the map of the Tomb Of The Ancient. Seeing these things, a sudden thought came into his mind.

‘Could it be that I was teleported inside that Reward Room because of this Rune?’ Evan thought inwardly and looked back at Octavius.

He told him about the reward room and asked him if he knew anything about it, and just as Evan expected, the old man shook his head.

“I don’t know anything about the reward room you are talking about.”

Hearing Octavius, Evan was now sure that he was sent inside that reward room because of the Rune that seeped inside his hand.

He already had doubts regarding that room, especially because of the map that he found there.

He took out the map of the Tomb from his shadow storage and showed it to Octavius.

“Do you know anything about this map?” Octavius looked at the map that Evan took out and once again shook his head, indicating he didn’t know anything about it.

‘I was wondering why the map I found inside that room is similar to the current terrain of the Tomb, but it seems it was also arranged by that guy…’ Evan said inwardly and felt a headache.

‘Ugh… Just what the fu*k is wrong with that guy? I feel like I am dancing at the palm of his hand and he already knows everything about the future.’

“By the way, I don’t know if the reward room you are talking about is related to this rune or not, but since this rune is still here, it means that it can still be used.” Evan came out of his thoughts hearing Octavius and looked at him.

“You mean there might still be a place inside the Tomb where I will need to use this rune to enter?”

“Correct…” Octavius nodded his head and looked at Evan in confusion. “Honestly, I am surprised you don’t know about these things. Although I know you are a clone, but still… Aren’t you completely ignorant?”

Evan’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch when he heard the old man calling him ignorant, and the sad reality was that he couldn’t refute him because he really was ignorant about these things.

He once again sighed inwardly and shook his head.

‘By the way, didn’t this old fart tell me he is a Rank Five Alchemist…’ Evan suddenly thought and remembered the books related to Ancient Alchemy that he found inside the reward room.

“I will ask him about Ancient Alchemy later,” Evan said to himself and stopped pouring his world essence inside his hand, making the outline of the Rune disappear from the palm of his hand.

“Forget about this Rune. Tell me how you ended up here and why that gu* I mean, why I created this Tomb?”

“You even forgot about why you created this Tomb and how I ended up here?” Octavius looked at Evan with a face full of shock.

Evan didn’t say anything hearing Octavius’s shocked voice and looked at him with a neutral look on his face.

Seeing Evan’s neutral look, Octavius knew that he wasn’t joking so he sighed and spoke after a moment.

“I was busy with one of my experiments when one of your shadow undead broke into my house and captured me. After I was captured, well… I was brought here, you destroyed my physical body, made an agreement with me, and more than four thousand years later, now we are here.”

Evan just nodded his head hearing Octavius and signaled him to continue.

“As for why you created this realm, I am not sure, but if I remember correctly, I think you created this realm to seal something here.”
