Chapter 12 New Skills (Part 1)
?--) Shadow Monarch Physique:- One of the forbidden physiques that exists in the world. It allows you to form a monarch core inside your heart. The monarch core can absorb 100? power of a core. While absorbing the core there is a 3% chance that you will receive a skill of the monster from which the core was extracted.
Evan read the details of the physique once again to confirm that he didn't read the details wrong earlier. After reading the details Evan took out another core and once again tried to absorb it, Evan focused on the energy that was being absorbed by him from the core.
After entering his body the energy moved near his heart but instead of being absorbed by the monarch core, Evan noticed that the energy was being absorbed by his prime core.
Just like monsters humans also have a core inside their body which is located near their heart, unlike monsters who have cores depending on their type like fire monsters have a fire core inside their bodies humans have a white core that is called the prime core, to improve their rank humans have to refine this core and improve its rank.
Currently, the rank of Evan's prime core is F which is why he is F rank hunter.
When Evan absorb the power of the core he noticed that instead of being absorbed by the monarch core the energy of the core was being absorbed by his prime core.
"How am I supposed to absorb energy by monarch core?" Evan was puzzled after seeing this because he does not know how he can use his monarch core to absorb energy from the core.
Evan took out another core and brought it near his chest area where his heart was located but nothing happens, Evan looked at the core carefully and suddenly got the urge to eat it.
"I don't have to eat it right?" Evan said in disbelief when he suddenly got the urge to eat the core "I will die if I eat a core" according to what Evan learned in two years you can't eat a core, if you eat a core the unrefined energy in it will destroy your body from inside.
You have to use your mana to refine the energy of a core and then you can absorb it to increase the rank of your core there is a very high chance that you will die if you eat a core directly that is why Evan was perplexed when he suddenly got the urge to eat the core.
Evan tried other methods to absorb the core using his monarch core but nothing worked "do I really have to eat it?" Evan hesitated to eat the core because if his monarch core did not absorb the energy there is a high chance that he will die because of the unrefined energy of the core.
"I will not swallow the core and will just put it in my mouth" Evan said and with hesitation, he put a core in his mouth, Evan made sure to not swallow the core because he knew that if he swallow the core and his physique not work he will die horribly.
Just as Evan put the core inside his mouth and it touched his tongue the monarch core inside his heart that was rotating slowly suddenly picked up speed like it sensed something and just as the monarch core started to rotate faster the core that Evan put in his mouth started to melt.
Evan was shocked by the sudden turn of events and even before he can do anything the core disappear and turned into pure energy that started to move toward his heart.
Evan can feel the energy of the core came near his heart but this time instead of going to the prime core the energy of the core entered inside his heart and was absorbed by his rotating monarch core.
Just as the monarch core absorbed all energy Evan felt his body becoming more stronger and it was clear that the monarch core absorbed all energy of the core and did not waste energy like the prime core.
"So this physique can really help me to absorb 100% energy of a core" Evan said with a delighted voice after he was able to absorb 100% energy of the core.
But suddenly Evan thought about something and his eyes opened wide from shock "it can't be right?" Evan said and took out another core and put it inside his mouth just like before the core turned into pure energy and was absorbed by his monarch core.
Evan felt his body becoming stronger after he absorbed the core.
Evan took out another core and this time used his mana to refine it the energy of the core was absorbed by his prime core this time and he felt his body becoming a little stronger although when he compared the progress with his monarch core it was not even half.
"I can really improve my power by increasing the rank of both cores" Evan said with an excited voice because unlike others who can only get stronger just by increasing the rank of their prime core Evan had two cores and he can increase his power by both cores which means he will be far more powerful than a normal hunter who is in the same rank as him.
"I will have to use more cores than normal people since I have to improve the ranks of two cores instead of one but now that I can absorb any core just like others it won't be a problem for me besides" Evan looked at the storage ring and a smile appeared on his face "I think these core are enough to increase the rank of my monarch core to D rank who can absorb 100% energy from a core"
Evan decided to improve the rank of his monarch core first since it can absorb 100% energy from a core and there is even a 3% chance that he will receive a skill from a core that will increase his power even more.
After deciding this Evan did not wait any longer and started putting cores inside his mouth one by one.
When Evan absorbed the 12th core the 3% chance of getting a skill from the core was finally triggered and a notification appeared before him.
