Necromancer Of The Shadows

After getting cores from Valery, Evan went back to the academy.

Now with these eight cores, he has a total of twenty-seven C rank cores, three C+ rank cores, and one B rank cores.

These cores are still not enough to level up his monarch core to C rank.

During the past three days, Evan thought about the practical exam, and he finally decided to bring his prime core to D+ rank before the exam.

Although Evan knew he is powerful, he is still not sure about dealing against many people at the same time with his current power.

In the details of the exam, it was clearly written that other teams can join hands to deal with a strong monster or different teams of students.

Evan knew he is not good when it come to deal with people who are working in a team.

A clear example of this was his fight against the horned frost wolf on the second floor of the frost world dungeon.

Because of how good the teamwork of those wolves was he was nearly defeated by them.

If he want to deal with people who will work in a team he knew he will have to increase his power.

His monarch core is still far from leveling up to C rank, but with the help of the cores he has, he can easily level up his prime core to D+ rank.

Other than this, when Evan read there will be B rank monsters on the island, he knew with his current power he won't be able to do anything against it.

Although he wasn't sure about dealing with a B rank monster after leveling up his prime core, he was confident that he will be able to run away from it after leveling up.

Last time when his prime core leveled up to D rank, and was mutated by shadow energy, his physical strength was greatly increased. He is hoping after leveling up his prime core, his physical strength will once again increase.

"According to the details of the exam, if you find a silver or gold chest and opened it, there will be an announcement about it. After the announcement, I am sure there will be many students who will try to kill that student to take away his points" Evan muttered after entering his room.

Evan knew if he opens a silver or gold chest for points, there will be many students who will target him.

If there are just two or three people he is confident enough to take care of them, but if there are more he is not sure about taking care of them alone.

Not even for a moment he thought that Mike will work with him.

After coming back to his room Evan didn't start absorbing cores, through his prime core immediately.

He first sat down on the bed and took out all the cores he has.

Soon twenty-seven C rank, three C+ rank, and one B rank core were present on the bed.

Evan looked at all the cores carefully and selected some cores from them.

After one minute Evan was holding six cores in his hand, and all of these were black in color. These six cores were shadow cores. There were five C rank and one C+ rank.

Among the cores that he got from Carlos and Valery only these six were shadow cores, and the rest were of different elements.

The B rank core that he found in Carlos's storage ring is a wind core.

The reason why Evan selected shadow cores was because of the mutation of his prime core.

After the mutation of his prime core, he can absorb 100% energy of the shadow cores using his prime core. And there is even a 2% chance of him getting a skill of the monster from whom the shadow core was extracted.

He can absorb 100% power of any core using his monarch core, but his mutated prime core can only absorb 100% energy from a shadow core.

That is why he first selected these shadow cores.

If he absorbs these six shadow cores first, he will need fewer cores to level up his prime core, because he will be able to absorb 100% of their energy.

After he selected shadow cores Evan didn't wait any longer.

He started with the C rank shadow core

Evan started to refine the core using his mana, and the energy of the shadow core rushed toward his prime core.

When he started to refine the energy Evan was surprised by the refining speed.

Last time when he refined the C rank core of the shadow wolf using his prime core it took him fifteen minutes just to absorb one-fourth energy from that.

But now that he is absorbing energy after the mutation of his prime core he can clearly feel his speed is much faster than before.

In just five minutes Evan completely refined the C rank core using his prime core.

"It is really amazing that I can refine a C rank core so quickly, even when I am not absorbing them with my monarch core" Evan muttered and picked up the second C rank shadow core.

Just like before he absorbed the C rank core in five minutes.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm Although it was nothing compared to the speed of his monarch core that can easily refine any core in seconds, it is still much better than other people who take hours to refine a C rank core.

The speed of refining increases along with your core rank.

For example, if a D rank hunter refines a C rank core, it will take him at least one hour to refine it. But after becoming a C rank hunter he will be able to refine a C rank core much faster.

Soon Evan finished absorbing all the C rank shadow cores, and there was only one C+ rank shadow core left.

Evan picked up the core and started to refine it just like other cores.

The energy in the C+ rank core was much higher than the C rank cores.

It took Evan a little more than ten minutes to absorb the core, and he can feel his he is quite close to D+ rank.

Just as Evan was about to absorb other cores he received a notification.
