Chapter 216 Shadow Resurrection (Part 1)
(Do you want to use skill shadow resurrection?)
Evan was baffled when he read the notification that appeared before him.
'Shadow resurrection? Is it one of the skills I got after reaching C rank?' Evan thought while raising an eyebrow.
'Did I get a class like a shadow priest or shadow saint?' Evan can't help but think after seeing the word resurrection in the name of the skill.
In the games he played in his past life, generally, only people with classes like the high priest or saintess class can use resurrection magic to revive people.
He looked around and saw monsters who escaped from the tornadoes were still a little far away from him.
'Let's try this skill first' Evan thought and decided to use this skill first before dealing with monsters.
He was hoping that this skill will revive Layal and he will be able to get information about his location from her.
Of course, even if she was revived by him, he has no plan of keeping her alive.
Once he gets the information about his location he will once again bonk her to death.
When Evan used the shadow resurrection skill, shadow energy came out from his monarch core and covered the dead body of Layla.
Evan watched with a face full of interest as the shadow energy seeped inside Layla's body.
After the shadow energy seeped inside her, her body started to shake.
Evan furrowed his eyebrow when he noticed something was coming out from her body.
He took a step back when he saw a ghost-like black shadow coming out from her body.
'What the fu*k is this?' Evan screamed inside his mind seeing a ghost-like shadow who looks similar to Layla come out from her body.
The only difference was that, unlike the real Layla, the shadow was black in colour, and her eyes looks like they were burning with purple flames.
'What kind of dark resurrection magic is this?' Evan can't help but think after seeing the shadow.
He looked at the body of Layla and saw it stopped shaking, and there was no sign of revival on her actual body.
After coming out from Layla's body the shadow looked at Evan.
Evan raised his guard because he can feel the shadow in front of him also has the power of A rank hunter just like Layla.
Just when he was ready to fight he was baffled when the shadow kneeled in front of him.
'What is going on here?' Evan was about to open his status window to see complete details of his skill when he sensed a B+ rank monster who was coming in his direction.
When Evan looked behind him he saw a monster who looks like a hippopotamus, and was covered in dark pink scales all over its body.
Earlier Evan retreated his wings after landing on the ground so that his excess energy will last a little longer, since he retreated his wings the terrifying aura which was coming out from them also disappeared.
Which is why the B+ rank monster was able to approach him.
"Grrr" the hippopotamus was around 150 meters away from him, and it growled after seeing him.
Evan was about to unfold his shadow wings once again so that it will run away from here after feeling that terrifying aura.
Currently, he just wanted to see the details of his skill, and fully understand what was going on here.
But before he can unfold his wings the shadow of Layal who was kneeling before him moved.
"How dare you growl before my master, you filthy monster" the shadow spoke in a voice similar to that of Layla which was filled with rage.
A black aura came out from the shadow's body going towards the hippopotamus.
The speed of the black aura was very fast and it arrived before the hippopotamus in an instant.
When the monster came into contact with the black aura, its body stiffened, and its eyes turned dazed like it was in some kind of dream.
The shadow of Layla appeared before the hippopotamus, her hand suddenly changed shape and turned into the claw of a beast which easily pierced through its hard skin reaching to its brain and destroying it in an instant.
Thud-!
With a thumping sound, the body of the B+ rank monster dropped to the ground as blood flowed out from the large wound on its head.
Evan watched everything with his eyes wide open looking back and forth at the shadow and the dead monster.
'It can even speak' Evan thought while looking at the shadow with shocked-filled eyes because he never thought this shadow can even speak.
"Wait, did this shadow just call me master?" Evan muttered and looked at Layla's shadow who came back, and was standing a little distance away from him.
Evan thought about asking her what is she but suddenly his face changed.
The energy which was coming through the connection started to decrease, and it won't be long before it will completely stop.
Before it completely stops he wanted to leave from here.
"Do you know which direction Aquaville city is located?" Evan asked while looking at the shadow of Layla hoping he will get some information from her.
"The Aquaville city is in that direction, master" shadow Layla quickly answered him while pointing in the right direction.
For some reason, Evan felt she sounded quite happy when he talked to her. But currently, he doesn't have time to think about anything else.
Before leaving he wanted to kill the monsters who appear here.
It was a big chance for him to collect some high-level cores. He looked at the shadow Layla and thought about something.
"Can you go there and kill all the monsters who came here after escaping from the tornadoes?" he asked while pointing in the direction from where he can feel the aura of some B+ rank monsters, he was hoping she will help him so that he will be able to get more cores before leaving.
"Of course leave it to me, I will definitely kill all the monsters there," shadow Layla said in an enthusiastic voice after hearing Evan and was about to dash away when Evan spoke once again.
"Don't forget to collect the cores after killing the monsters"
"Alright," shadow Layla said and dashed away from there.
"Just what the hell is she, she was speaking just like a normal person" Evan muttered to himself still not believing he was just talking to a ghost.
But he soon stopped thinking about it and looked at the body of the hippopotamus that shadow Layla killed earlier.
