Using shadow walk, Evan disappeared from the place he was standing. He flew up in the sky and stopped just before the fire barrier that was covering the entire area.
The shadow energy inside his monarch core churned, and after activating the shadow shroud skill to its full limit he shot towards the fire barrier.
Because of the effect of the shadow walk, he was easily able to pass through the fire barrier, and the shield created by the shadow shroud stopped the heat of the fire.
Woosh-!
Evan came out of the fire barrier and without stopping flew away from there.
Because he was using shadow energy, he covered the distance of tens of kilometres very quickly and was soon far away from the crime scene.
"I should be safe from that S ranker now" Evan muttered and stopped using shadow energy.
When he stopped using shadow energy he felt a slight headache and dizziness.
"Using shadow energy when I don't have much mana is far more taxing than normal."
Evan's appearance once again started to change and in less than a minute, he returned to his original appearance.
"That S ranker must be thinking I disappeared using an artefact" Evan laughed and put away the cup noodle box he took out earlier.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom While flying towards the academy, he opened his status window and looked at his skill growth link.
--) Growth Link-: A skill created using the Forbidden Knowledge of the Ebonmancer class. The skill level is very high so most of the skill's effects are currently sealed. More skill effects will be unlocked as the user increases his core rank.
The current effects of the skill -
1. The Growth link skill will create a link between you, and all of your shadow undeads. The power of shadow undeads who are of the same rank as you or lower rank than you will receive a massive boost in power due to the link. Shadow Undeads who are of the higher rank than you will not receive any power boost because of the growth link until you reach at the same rank as them or surpass them. The stronger you are, the stronger your shadow undeads will be.
2. You can take a skill from any of your Shadow Undead for three days. After taking a skill, you will not be able to use this effect for three days.
"Even though the second effect of growth link skill is not as good as the first one, it is still far better than anything I hoped for"
After his monarch core advanced to the B rank, the second effect of his growth link skill was unsealed. Using this effect earlier, he took Illusia's skill and changed his appearance.
"I may be able to permanently take skills from my Shadow Undeads in the future after I raise my core rank," Evan said in a hopeful voice and was soon able to see the academy. He landed at some distance from the academy and saw that no one was there.
"Looks like people who want to ask about the golden lightning will take some time because of the rucks that I created," Evan said and went inside the academy.
While walking towards his room, Evan suddenly felt someone looking at him using a powerful spiritual sense. From the spiritual power, Evan could tell that it was another S rank hunter.
'Could it be the principal of the academy?' Evan thought without showing any expression on his face.
He knew about Nathan who is an S rank hunter and the principal of the academy. Apart from him, he cannot think of anyone else who has such a powerful spiritual sense inside the academy.
'Looks like he doesn't have any intentions of showing up in front of me' thought Evan, when Natahn did not appear in front of him even when he reached in front of his room.
Just as Evan entered his room, he felt that the person watching him had stopped using his spiritual senses.
'At least he is not a stalker' Evan said inwardly when Nathan stopped looking at him.
'I will have to find another place if I want to turn Adam into a shadow undead'
Evan was thinking about turning Adam into a shadow undead after coming back to the academy, but now that he knew Nathan is keeping an eye on him, he can't use his shadow resurrection skill here.
Even though Evan could tell Nathan is not looking inside his room, he does not want to take any risk.
After coming into his room Evan went to the bathroom immediately. He was still wearing tattered clothes, and his entire body was covered in dust and blood.
"I also have to take care of Jack's body," Evan said while cleaning himself.
Evan had no intention of turning Jack into a shadow undead. In Evan's eyes, that guy was even weaker than the Shadow Mantis he had created earlier.
The only reason Evan brought Jack's body with him was because he didn't want to leave any evidence there.
He killed Jack using his shadow bullet, and during the practical exam, many people saw him using that skill.
He was afraid that if he left Jack's body there, some people might recognize his Shadow Bullet skill.
After cleaning himself he come out of the bathroom and wore his clothes.
While wearing clothes his senses were on full alert. He wanted to make sure that a certain old man is not peeking at him using his spiritual senses.
After wearing clothes he took out the artfec...*cough* cup noodle box that he used earlier.
While preparing cup noodles Evan pondered about his shadow resurrection skill.
After seeing the effect of his growth link skill on the shadow mantis Evan thought about something.
"Instead of making normal shadow undead, I should look for rare monsters who are more powerful than normal monsters. I wonder what will happen if I turn monsters who are bound by racial limits into shadow undeads?"
"Will they be able to break their racial limits after becoming shadow undeads?"
