Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 167 Energy Absorption Skill

Evan walked back to his room.

After he entered the room and closed the door, his body shook a little.

His entire body was aching because of the unexpected attack of Olivia.

The pressure of an A+ rank hunter was not something that his current body can witness.

''I am going to beat the hell out of that bi*ch" Evan muttered and slumped down on his bed.

When he said he will destroy Olivia he was completely serious.

For a normal D+ rank hunter, it would have been impossible to do something about an A+ rank hunter in six months.

But Evan was different from them.

Because of his monarch core, he can advance through the ranks without any problems. He doesn't need to worry about stabilizing his core after advancing.

He just needs cores, and he will not have to worry about not being able to advance in ranks.

In six months he was sure that he will be able to surpass that bi*ch if he work hard.

"The first thing I have to do now is to advance my monarch core to C rank, so that I will be able to use my dungeon access card to the fullest" Evan muttered and took a deep breath.

His dungeon access card can give him access to any dungeon below A rank.

So it was obvious that he will try to enter in B rank dungeons so that he can gather B rank cores.

But with his current power, it was impossible for him to kill even a single B rank monster, much less clear a B rank dungeon.

If he wanted to use his card, and clear B rank dungeons he will have to reach C rank first.

If he is right and he unlocks a class with his monarch core, he was sure that he will be able to clear a B rank dungeon.

"After I advance to C rank, I also need to leave the city in order to solve the problem of the devourer skill," Evan said while looking at the skill that he got after he absorbed the core of the black ogre.

---) Devourer :-???? (the skill is not compatible with the human body and can't be used by you)

When Evan got this skill, he thought he will have an easier time advancing through the ranks because of this skill.

But the reality was different, and this skill turned out to be completely different from what he expected.

When he see he can't use this skill he was disappointed, but then he remembered another feature of his monarch core.

Skill Merging!

So what if he can't use the devourer skill because it is not compatible with the human body?

He will just have to try to get a skill that he can merge with devour skill, and he should be able to use it.

During all this time he searched for monsters who has similar skills to the devourer.

And just a few days ago he finally found a monster who has perfect skill.

It was actually a plant type monster who has a skill called energy absorption.

Even though there was not much information on the internet, from what he read he was sure that he will be able to merge this skill with his devour skill.

But after finding this monster, Evan was in a dilemma because this monster can only be found in a dungeon, which is not in Astrate city.

Moreover, it is a B rank dungeon, and he wasn't sure that he will get permission to enter in it even if he go to the city in which this dungeon is located.

But now that he has a dungeon access card all he has to do is gather some C rank cores, advance his monarch core to C rank, go to the dungeon, use his dungeon access card, kill lots of plant type monsters, gather their cores, get energy absorption skill, merge it with devour skill and done.

"Woha! I am invincible" Evan said when he was done thinking.

"Well the easier it sounds the more difficult a task will be," Evan said and sat up on his bed.

"I still have some cores left that I got from Carlos, and the frost world dungeon. I can get five B rank cores from the mission hall. With those five B rank cores plus the cores I have, now I only need a few more C rank cores and I will be able to advance to C rank" Evan said while rubbing his chin.

"Alright, I will first gather some cores from the wilderness and will advance to C rank, then I can leave Astrate city to solve the problem of my skill," Evan said and stood up from his bed, "once the problem of devourer skill solved I should be able to surpass that bit*ch in six months....probably"

After getting up Evan first went to the bathroom to take a bath.

His body was still aching, but this kind of pain was nothing to him.

It was very low compared to the pain that he has endured while using shadow energy. If nessacery he can endure this kind of pain for a long time without any problem.

'Why do I feel like I am becoming masochistic?' Evan thought and quickly shook his head,' Hell no! There is no way I have this kind of fetish'

He took a long bath to calm down his mind.

To completely destroy an A+ rank hunter like Olivia in six months, he will have to try his best to gather enough cores.

As long as he can gather enough cores to advance his monarch core he will be able to take care of her easily.

After coming out Evan first cooked some food for himself, and yes he stopped eating cup noodles some time ago.

He cooked some fried rice that he learned from the internet.

'I should collect the five cores tomorrow then I can leave for the wilderness' Evan thought while eating.

The rest of the day passed by without much happening and the next day arrived.
