Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 121 D+ Rank And Second Merged Skill (Part 2)

(You have received the skill 'Stealth')

---) Stealth :- By using the power of shadow you can hide your presence. The effect of the skill will reduce against an enemy who is two levels above you.

Evan was greatly surprised when he saw he received a skill just after absorbing six cores. There was just 2% chance for him to receive a skill, so he never thought about getting a skill while absorbing those cores.

''This skill is similar to the passive effect of the concealment ring" Evan muttered after reading the details of the skill.

His concealment ring has a passive effect that hides his presence from anyone below B rank.

"This skill is not much help to me because I already have the concealment ring, that can hide my presence from anyone below B rank," Evan said in a disappointed voice.

"Although it can't help me in real life, it might come in handy during my practical exam since we will not be able to use our artifact there" even though he was disappointed he never expected to get any skill so he decided to ignore it and absorb other cores to push his prime core to D+ rank.

But just as Evan was about to absorb other cores a notification appeared before him.

(Shadow walk and stealth skills are computable with each other)

(Do you want to merge both skills into one)

[Yes/No]

'Holy sh*t' Evan can't help but curse because of the excitement. He didn't expect to see this notification.

He got his dimensional shadow bullets skill, by merging shadow bullet and dimensional shadow needles skill.

He knew the power of skill combination. His dimensional shadow bullets skill is a great example.

Previously shadow bullet was just a normal skill, but after merging with the dimensional shadow needles skill it completely changed.

Seeing the notification Evan didn't hesitate and instantly chose yes.

Just like the previous time, just as Evan chose yes his monarch core started to spin faster.

He felt his mana being drained at rapid speed.

Last time when he combined the skills he had to use around 70% of his mana.

His monarch core continue to absorb mana like a black hole, and in just ten seconds it absorbed 60% of his total mana.

After ten seconds it stopped absorbing his mana and more notifications appeared before him.

(Skills shadow walk and stealth are being merged....)

(Both skills are merged successfully)

(You have received the skill 'Shadow walk')

Evan read the notifications and blinked a few times.

''Why does this skill name sound familiar?" Evan muttered with a frown on his face.

" Holy sh*t, what kind of scam is this?" after a moment, when Evan finally realized why the name sounded familiar he can't help but curse.

Thinking he was scammed Evan quickly looked at the details of his shadow walk skill.

---) Shadow Walk :- Your body will turn into an invisible shadow, and you can walk through any barrier or restrictions without being hindered.

Evan read the details and saw there was no change in it.

But when he once again read the details the word invisible caught his eyes.

"Will turn into an invisible shadow" Evan muttered and suddenly thought about something.

He went before the mirror and used his skill shadow walk.

His body turned into a shadow, but unlike before, where people can see his shadow form after using the skill, Evan wasn't able to see anything in the mirror after activating the skill.

Evan who turned into an invisible shadow was stunned and wasn't able to say anything for a moment.

"This skill is even better than invisibility since other than making me invisible, I can also pass through barriers and other restrictions," Evan said while still maintaining his shadow form.

"I don't know how effective this skill is, but I think at least no one below B rank will be able to see me after using this skill"

Suddenly Evan noticed something and he stopped using the shadow walk skill. Just as he stopped using the skill he once again appeared before the mirror. He checked his mana and a frown appeared on his face.

"I just used it for around twenty seconds, but lost five percent of my total mana"

The mana cost for using his new shadow walk skill is way higher than before. But when Evan thought about the benefits of this new skill he actually find it quite reasonable.

"It is natural it will consume high amount of mana since it turns me completely invisible"

After Evan confirmed the new effect of shadow walk skill he was very satisfied.

"With the help of this skill, my chances of performing well in exams increased by a large margin" Evan sat down on the bed once again and picked up a C+ rank core.

Like before he once again started to refine it using his prime core.

Since it was not a shadow core Evan wasn't able to absorb 100% energy from it.

After more than ten minutes when he was done, Evan noticed he absorbed only thirty percent of energy from the core.

Seeing this Evan can't help but shake his head.

He picked up the last C+ rank core and refined it.

Soon Evan refined the last C+ rank core, and continue to refine other C rank cores.

When Evan refined his tenth C rank core his prime core finally reached its limit.

The surrounding mana rushed towards him, and a small mana whirlpool formed above his head.

As usual, his prime core started to absorb a large amount of mana from the whirlpool.

Like a black hole, his prime core continues to absorb a large amount of mana from the whirlpool.

'This mana whirlpool is still smaller than the whirlpool that formed when my monarch core advanced to D rank' Evan thought when he saw the size of the whirlpool.

After five minutes his prime core stopped absorbing mana, and the whirlpool above his head disappeared.

His prime core released a wave of energy that started to refine his body. His mana reserve increased greatly, and his physical strength increased once again.

Soon his prime core stopped releasing energy and it successfully stabilized to D+ rank.
