Necromancer Of The Shadows

Clang! Clang! - - -

The sound of metal clashing against metal rang out in the vast outer space as the stars and galaxies illuminated the surroundings in myriad colours.

Brzzz!!!

A sword, nearly one and a half meters long buzzed as it released powerful sword energies in all directions, disintegrating all the asteroids or dead planets that cinto contact with the power that it was releasing.

"You fu*king monster... Just what kind of abomination weapon is that?" A girl, who looked around thirteen or fourteen years old said in a hateful voice as she slashed ahead of her using the long silver sword that was slightly larger than her petty body.

As the girl slashed with her sword, a storm of icy sword energy that froze thousands of kilometres of outer space rushed ahead, turning everything that cin its path into icy dust.

As the icy sword energy rushed forward, a man with sharp elf-like ears, heterochromia eyes (one golden and one black), and deep black hair looked at it without any change in his expression.

The man was holding a weapon in his hand, but the weapon was covered in a deep black aura, so no one could see its true form.

Just when the icy sword energy was about to hit the man, he pointed the weapon he was holding in front of him and slashed lightly.

Boooom!

The moment the man slashed, the space in front of him shattered, and everything, including the icy sword energy disappeared from the face of the world.The source of thɪs content is ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

The thousands of kilometres of the area that was frozen due to the icy sword energy turned into an empty void, and the girl who attacked using the sword flew backwards like a floating asteroid and crashed against a dead planet, turning it into dust.

Light blue blood flowed out of her injuries, and she felt her head spinning due to the impact.

"Sever!" Before the girl could recover, she heard a cold voice and the weapon that the man was holding pierced her stomach.

"Arghhhh!" The girl screamed in pain and felt as if her entire existence was being ripped apart by the weapon.

She looked at the golden and black eye of the man and gritted her teeth in anger.

Light blue energy started to cover her body and a terrifying aura that shook the entire galaxy started to cout of his body.

"You bastard! I wil—" The girl tried to speak something, but before she could, the world around her started to crumble, and everything turned pitch black.

Valery was jolted awake and panted heavily. She looked around her and after confirming that she was still in her bedroom, she sighed in relief and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

"That strange dream again..." She muttered in a tired voice and slumped down on her bed while covering her face with her hands.

After calming down, she opened her status window and looked at the notifications she had received recently after becoming an A+ rank hunter.

(Your Ice Reaper Physique Is Evolving Into A Monarch's Physique....)

(The Evolution Of Your Physique Failed Due To The 'Sever' Effect Of ???)

(Absorb The Source Of Ice Monarch To Evolve Your Physique)

"Just what the hell is this Monarch physique and ice monarch source?" Valery muttered in a tired voice as she looked at the notifications.

The strange dreams she was having started after she reached A+ rank a few days ago, and these notifications appeared alongside them.

She didn't know what had happened, but she could feel that something inside her had changed after reaching A+ rank. Even the power of her Ice Reaper Physique had greatly increased, although it hadn't evolved to the next stage.

Moreover, the rank of her core was increasing at a rapid speed. Previously, she had to stabilize her core for a few months after advancing to the next rank.

But after reaching A rank, she only needed to stabilize it for a few days before it was ready to advance again.

When Evan left for Utopia, she was at the peak of B+ rank. About a month after he left, she reached A rank, and surprisingly, just two more months later, her core advanced once again, making her an A+ rank hunter.

As if that wasn't enough, she could sense that in just a few days, her core would return to normal, and she would be able to advance to S rank.

"What is going on here? Is this also an effect of the Ice Reaper Physique?" Valery asked herself in a confused voice, not understanding what was happening.

She pondered over all this for a long tbut could not cto any conclusion due to her limited knowledge of the matter. Eventually, she sighed and sat up.

"Forget it, since I don't have enough information, there is no point in dwelling on this matter..." She said and glanced out of the window. "Instead of pondering over useless things, I might as well go into a dungeon and collect scores since I will need them to advance to S rank."

While looking outside, Valery suddenly thought about something and rubbed her chin.

For sreason, the thought of using the Tower put a smile on her face as she wanted to use it for a long tso that she could go to the higher world as well.

"Speaking of the Tower, I wonder if that bastard is still alive..." She asked herself and got up from the bed.

"Well, considering his power and that unreasonably large undead army of his, there is no way he would have encountered any danger there," Valery said after standing up as she headed towards the bathroom. "Mabe, I will meet him after using the Tower."
