Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 995

Chapter 995: Want Me To Help You? (Part 2)
Evan left the teleportation building along with Anastasia and flew towards his house.

Although there were many things he was curious about, such as the ruined place he saw on the holographic screen or why Sylvan said the peace in Utopia wouldn’t last long, he decided to put all of that at the back of his mind for now.

It wasn’t that these things weren’t important for him, but in his mind, they weren’t as crucial as talking with Anastasia.

He had seen her in his memories many times, so he felt he might be able to get some good information from her.

Besides, from the way Anastasia had been looking at him in the teleportation building, he could tell she also wanted to talk to him.

While flying towards his house, neither of them said anything.

As he was flying, Evan suddenly thought about Biscuit and a frown appeared on his face.

Before the Tomb collapsed, Azroth had sent out all the people who entered the Tomb and the monsters in it to Utopia.

This meant Biscuit was also somewhere in Utopia. He still had Biscuit’s soul essence, so he could sense its general location, but to do so, he would have to leave the closed world of the Dryads since this world was in another dimension.

‘Well, that dumb bird was very close to becoming a mid-level Rank Three monster, so as long as it doesn’t do anything stupid, it should be able to survive until I find it…’ Evan thought inwardly and stopped worrying about it.

Around ten minutes later, Evan and Anastasia landed in front of his house.

Looking at the familiar house, mountain, and the flowing river from the top of the mountain, Evan took a deep breath and felt relaxed.

‘Maybe, this house is really turning into my home,’ Evan thought with a slight smile as he looked around at the familiar scenery.

Anastasia also looked around with interest and asked in a curious voice.

“Master, have you been living here since you arrived in Utopia?”

Evan was about to walk into the house but stopped when he heard Anastasia and turned around to look at her.

“First of all, stop calling me Master. And as for your question, yes, I have spent most of my time here since I came to Utopia.”

Anastasia was stunned when she heard Evan, but she quickly returned to normal and asked in a calm voice.

“If not ‘Master,’ then what should I call you?”

“Don’t you know my name?” Evan looked at the black-haired woman weirdly and said in a plain voice, “Just call me by my name. It is already a hassle that my shadow undeads call me ‘Master.’ I asked them to stop calling me that, but they just changed it into more outrageous ones like ‘King,’ ‘Emperor,’ ‘Great One,’ and many more. In the end, I just stopped caring about them, but it still feels weird when someone other than my shadow undeads calls me Master.”

Anastasia couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Evan.

“So the new ones are also similar to the old ones in this regard,” She muttered and shook her head.

“Old ones?” Evan raised an eyebrow at Anastasia and looked at her in confusion.

Anastasia didn’t answer Evan’s question; instead, she asked him, “So what should I call you, Evan or Azro—”

“Is that even a question?” Evan interrupted Anastasia midway and said in a plain voice, “I am Evan, and before we talk about anything else, I want to tell you that I am very different from the person you call Azroth.”

Evan said those words deliberately because although he was more or less certain that he was Azroth in his past life, he still wanted to see Anastasia’s reaction upon hearing he was different from Azroth.

But unfortunately for him, upon hearing his words, Anastasia didn’t show any strange reaction and just smiled a little.

“So Evan it is,” She said with a smile on her face and added after a moment, “Actually, it does not matter to me if your personality is not similar to before, and if I speak the truth, I am actually happy about this change.”

‘After all, this change is already a big step towards your goal,’ She added inwardly but didn’t say out loud.

Evan looked at Anastasia, who was smiling happily for some reason and shook his head. He turned around and walked inside the house.

“Let’s go in; I am sure we have a lot to talk about.”

Anastasia looked at Evan, who was walking ahead and after a moment, followed him inside.

“Sit wherever you want,” Evan said to Anastasia after entering the house and moved towards the bathroom. “Just give me a few minutes; I need to clean myself.”

Before coming out of the Tomb, Evan had just fought against Baphomet, Eldrakar, and Eldritch Goblins, so he was in a complete mess. His clothes were stained with blood and dirt, and he was looking like a run-down beggar.

When Anastasia heard Evan was going to take a bath, her eyes lit up and she asked in a playful voice.

“Want me to help you?”

Evan did not stop when he heard Anastasia and replied in a flat voice.

“No thanks.”

He entered the bathroom and closed the door behind him.

After entering the bathroom, he took a deep breath and looked at the soul seals that were placed on his soul.

He took off his blood-stained clothes and walked towards the shower. As he turned on the shower and warm water poured down on his body, his tensed muscles relaxed.

‘Azroth told me to start breaking the seals from above…’ Evan said inwardly and with a thought, his spiritual power moved towards the uppermost seal placed on his soul.

His current spiritual power was already higher than a normal mid-level Rank Three Core Evolver, so it wasn’t difficult for him to break the seal.

The moment his spiritual power touched the seal, it shattered like fragile glass and a surge of memories flooded Evan’s head.
