Necromancer Of The Shadows

When Lucian and the others heard Evan's first condition, they were not surprised, as all of them had already expected this.

His second condition of killing Cedar by his own hands was a bit surprising, but they had no problem with it as well because Cedar was useless to them now that they knew the Enlightenment Stone was in Evan's hands.

Lucian and the others easily accepted the first two conditions, but when they heard his third condition, the expressions of all of them changed, especially Thomas, Solara, and Arden's expressions, who were unlike Lucian were completely unrelated to the Enlightenment Stone.

"Are you messing with us?" Lucian asked in a cold voice, and the bloody aura around him thickened.

The eyes of Thomas and the others also turned cold, and the surrounding area started to tremble because of their murderous aura.contemporary romance

"What do you mean I am messing around?" Evan sneered and didn't care about their cold gazes. "I risked my life to steal this Enlightenment Stone, and you want me to give it back without getting anything in return? Do you think I am an idiot?"

"You will be able to keep your trash life if you return the Enlightenment Stone. Isn't this enough?" Solara asked in a cold voice as the temperature around her started to increase.

"Sorry, but I am a greedy bastard, so along with my life, I want a lot of money as well," Evan said with a shrug of his shoulders and showed the storage ring that was holding the Enlightenment Stone to them once again. "My patience is limited, so hurry up and decide already what you guys want to do. If you don't give me your rings in the next five seconds, I will crush this storage ring and commit suicide."

The expressions of Thomas and others turned gloomy when they heard Evan.

Lucian, Arden, and Solara didn't want Evan to destroy the storage ring because they still wanted to get their hands on the Enlightenment Stone. Meanwhile, Thomas didn't want Evan to commit suicide.

The whole reason he tagged along with Lucian and the others was because he wanted to capture Evan due to the uniqueness of his blood. He wasn't sure what kind of effect Evan's death would have on his blood, so he wanted to capture him alive.

"Three seconds left..." Evan said and pressed the storage ring using his strength, enlarging the cracks on it. At the same time, his aura became chaotic, as if he wanted to blow himself up.

Seeing Evan really wanted to destroy the storage ring and commit suicide, Lucian was stunned and quickly shouted. "Stop, we will give you our storage rings."

"Lucian, I—"

'Just give him your storage rings for the time being. I promise you that he won't be able to get away from here.' Lucian sent a message to all three of them and looked at them with a serious look on his face.

Arden and the others frowned when they heard Lucian's message, but they didn't want Evan to destroy the Enlightenment Stone or commit suicide, so all of them nodded their heads. Besides...

'Even if he really escaped from here, Lucian will bear responsibility for it since he is the one who is asking us to hand over our storage rings...' Solara, Arden, and Thomas thought at the same time and gave their storage rings to Lucian.

When Evan saw the four storage rings in Lucian's hand, he looked at Nihilus, who was standing behind him, and nodded his head.

Nihilus summoned a skeleton when he received Evan's signal and sent it towards Lucian to take the storage rings. Evan didn't allow Lucian to approach him or throw the rings towards him, as he was afraid he would try to pull something.

With a cold look on his face, Lucian gave the storage rings to the skeleton and didn't try to do anything.

The skeleton brought the storage rings to Evan, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the rings, Evan took them from the skeleton.

After taking the rings from the skeleton, Evan looked inside them and saw mountains of essence stones. Evan frowned a bit when he saw there were just essence stones inside the rings and nothing else.

'It seems instead of their original storage ring that they generally use, they gave me the rings that they brought in order to buy the Enlightenment Stone...' Evan thought inwardly and was a little disappointed that there was nothing else inside the rings other than the essence stones.

But he soon recovered and threw all four storage rings inside his shadow storage. 'Well, it is better than getting nothing.'

After throwing the storage rings inside the shadow storage, Evan looked at Lucian and the others with a smile on his face, as if he was looking at his old friends, and nodded his head.

"Now that the third condition is complete, let's complete the second one..." He said and looked at Cedar, who was still on the ground.

"You bastard, so this was your plan all along, huh? You switched your storage ring with mine so that you could negotiate with them even if we got caught." Cedar said in a hate-filled voice and looked at Evan with red eyes.

Evan didn't care about Cedar's hate-filled gaze and just smiled.

"Should I release him?" Lucian asked when he saw Evan looking at Cedar.

"Do you want to kill me?" Evan rolled his eyes when he heard Lucian. "He is a mid-level Rank Two Core Evolver while I am just a beginner-level Rank One noob. How am I going to kill him if you don't restrain him using your aura."

'This bastard... Is he treating me like an artefact who is here to suppress the power of his enemies?' Lucian thought inwardly and looked at Evan with cold eyes.

"All right, I am starting. Make sure you restrain him properly or he might kill me." Evan ignored Lucian's cold eyes and said in a flat voice.

'I will release that guy in the middle of the fight and will take that opportunity to subdue this fu*ker...' Lucian thought and nodded his head.

Seeing Lucian nodding his head, Evan smiled and looked at Nihilus.

"Nihilus, kill that bastard for me. Make sure you torture him properly before killing him."

Receiving Evan's order, Nihilus quickly walked towards Cedar, who was on the ground due to Lucian's aura.

Lucian was dazed when he saw Evan was not going towards Cedar himself and his eyes twitched uncontrollably. Suddenly, he felt a mocking gaze towards him. Lucian turned his head and saw Evan looking at him with a mocking smile as if he already knew what he was planning.

Seeing Evan's mocking smile, Lucian's face turned ugly and his eyes flashed with bloodlust.

'This motherf*cker... I really want to break all of his teeth.'
