Necromancer of The Shadows

As the red-orange sky began to turn black on the horizon and moved toward him, Evan sighed and stood up.

He wasn't surprised that someone had come looking for him as he had already anticipated it.

When he entered this world, he received a notification informing him that it was an artificially created world.

Since it's an artificially created world, it means it was created by someone, and there must be an owner of this world.

At first, he thought this world was created by the black figure, but then he received a task to destroy this world, which almost erased the possibility that it was created by the black figure. After all, if the black figure were the one who created this world, Evan wouldn't have received a task to destroy it after coming here through the portal the figure created.

Of course, there was also the possibility that the tasks he received had nothing to do with the black figure and that this world was indeed created by him.

But this possibility seemed very small, and Evan was more inclined to believe that this world was not created by the black figure because if it had been, it was very unlikely that he would have been able to come here using that portal.

Since this is an artificially created world, the person who created it must have a way to monitor it to guard against anyone entering uninvited and must have already discovered him.

Knowing that there was a high chance he had already been discovered, Evan decided to wait for them to come to him rather than searching for them.

Of course, he wasn't just wasting his time sitting there doing nothing. He glanced at his status window and shook his head.

"I just needed at most one or two more hours to reach my goal."

---) Current Understanding Of The Conceptual Energy Of Void: 34.02%

It had been around seven hours since Evan entered this world, and his understanding of void energy had already increased by 4%.

Remember that when he left the Tomb of the Ancients, his understanding of void energy was at 26%.

Over the next two months, his understanding only reached 30%. It had taken him more than two months to increase his understanding of void energy by 4% after leaving the Tomb, but here, he achieved the same result in just a few hours.

Evan was also surprised when he discovered this. He did not know what was special about this place, but the concepts of laws were very clear here, and Evan was certain that if he spent some time in this world, not only would he make great progress in his understanding of the conceptual energy of void, but he could also increase his efficiency in using the Primordial Shadow Energy, just like how Azroth used it in the Tomb of the Ancients.

"Although my task is to destroy this world, there's no time limit, so I can take my time..." Evan muttered with a small smile on his face, thinking about staying here for a few days.

He was sure that if he could stay here for a week, he would be able to break through to rank three by increasing his understanding of void energy.

As Evan was thinking, the black sky on the horizon moved closer to him and he could already feel the terrifying aura of the person coming toward him.

At the same time, after sensing the aura of the approaching entity, he became certain that this world was not created by the black figure.

The reason?

"A Peak Rank Three Eldritch Creature, huh..." Evan muttered with narrowed eyes as he noticed a brown-coloured, three-meter-tall humanoid figure with six arms and two heads, surrounded by deep Eldritch Energy, standing in mid-air and moving along with the black energy that had changed the colour of the sky.

The Eldritch Creature had five eyes—two extra eyes below the place where normal eyes should be and one in the middle of its forehead, looking like a third eye, or rather, a fifth eye.

In the information that Boris sent him, Evan had read that the black figure was helping hunters deal with the Eldritch Monsters.

Now that he had arrived in a world where the first entity he encountered was an extremely powerful Eldritch Creature, it became obvious that the task he received to destroy this world was most likely issued by the black figure, and that figure wasn't the one who created this world.

"His aura is far stronger than any other rank three core evolver I've encountered before..." Evan muttered in a low voice as he watched the six-armed Eldritch Creature, who had stopped around ten kilometres away from him, looking down at him from the sky with cold eyes.

"Peak of rank two…"

Evan heard the Eldritch Creature's low voice and noticed a frown appear on its face after seeing him.

'It seems he didn't know about my power level before he came here.'

Evan didn't know why the Eldritch Creature in front of him frowned after seeing him, but from its mumbling, he could confirm that it didn't know about his rank before arriving, which means that the owner of this world doesn't have full information about him.

"Who are you? And how did you get here?"

After frowning for a while, the six-armed creature asked Evan in a cold voice.

Evan was once again surprised when he heard the creature because, unlike other Eldritch Creatures he had encountered so far, which only acted on instinct and attacked people on sight, this one could speak normally and seemed quite intelligent.

'If this guy was like the other Eldritch Creatures and just acted on instincts, it wouldn't have been difficult to deal with him. But since he can think clearly, it will be much more challenging to handle him...' Evan thought to himself, and instead of answering the Eldritch Creature's question, he asked it back.

"Before asking who I am, shouldn't you introduce yourself?"

The six-armed creature narrowed its eyes when it heard Evan, but it did not take any action and replied in a cold voice.

"I am Xael'Tor, the fourth general under the command of Emperor Velgoth. Invader, tell me how you got here, or I will execute you immediately under the command of His Majesty."

'Velgoth...' Evan's eyes flashed when he heard the name of the Emperor, and just from this single sentence, he understood many things.

Xael'Tor said he was the fourth general, which means there are at least three more generals other than him, and they are most likely more powerful than him.

Besides these generals, there is also this Emperor Velgoth. Given that his generals are already at the peak of Rank Three, it's likely that he is at least a beginner-level Rank Four core evolver or, in the worst case, a Peak Rank Four or even a Rank Five core evolver.

'I hope that guy isn't a Rank Five core evolver, or this task is already doomed...' Evan thought, feeling a headache coming on.

Seeing that Evan wasn't saying anything after hearing him, a cold, murderous look flashed in Xael'Tor's eyes.

He was about to speak again, but suddenly, he stopped as if he had just received a message and his eyes widened.

'What's wrong with him?' Evan frowned when he noticed the shocked look on Xael'Tor's face and began to have a bad feeling about it... And just as he had guessed, after the initial look of shock, Xael'Tor's eyes turned extremely cold, and he looked at Evan with murderous intent.

"So, you are from the Lost World. No wonder your aura feels so different," He said in a cold voice.

"Lost World..." Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard Xael'Tor and was about to ask what he meant, but before he could, a burst of Eldritch Energy erupted from Xael'Tor's body and his Eldritch Energy Zone covered an area of five hundred kilometers in an instant, enveloping Evan immediately.
