Necromancer Of The Shadows-Chapter 1197 One Shot One Kill (Part 1)

1197 One Shot One Kill (Part 1)

"You don't seem as special as the rumours make you out to be."

When Evan heard Krythorion's words, he was tempted to show him a middle finger.

'I just reached Rank Three, you bastard. What kind of speciality were you expecting, trying to fight me with your Rank Six Core Evolver power?' He cursed inwardly, observing the square-headed figure before him.

Surprisingly, when Krythorion appeared in front of him, he retracted all of the pressure that had been pressing down on him, giving Evan enough space to finally breathe properly.

Moreover, another thing Evan noticed was that when Krythorion spoke about him not seeming special, there was no disdain in his voice, only disappointment, as if he hadn't seen something he had been waiting for.

"Don't tell me you were expecting him to fight you on equal footing with his rank three level?" Zalga, the humanoid ant-like creature asked in a speechless tone, appearing beside Krythorion.

"Well... Although I knew he was just a Rank Three Core Evolver now, I still thought he would be able to fight against me. After all, you know, it's him," Krythorion replied with a shake of his head and sighed.

'What the fu*k is going on?' Evan was stunned by the scene unfolding in front of him and looked at the two Rank Six Core Evolvers with a weird look on his face.

The way Krythorion and the others had entered Azragoth World, and the things he had heard from Velgoth made Evan think they would immediately attack him or throw some disdainful words his way, telling him to surrender without a fight right after seeing him.

But instead of following that script, these guys were casually chatting as if they were out for a stroll.

When Krythorion and Zalga noticed Evan's weird gaze, they immediately stopped talking and looked at him seriously.

"Umm... just to be clear... you are the ones who came from Origin Universe to capture me, right?" Evan asked once Krythorion and Zalga stopped talking because, from the way they were acting, it did not seem like they were here to capture him.

Krythorion and Zalga's expressions changed when they heard Evan, and they glanced at Velgoth, who was standing some distance away.

Only Velgoth knew that they would be coming here to capture Evan, and now that Evan had directly addressed it, it was obvious who had told him.

Though they understood that Velgoth had informed Evan about them, they did nothing to him and just shook their heads in disappointment.

Krythorion turned back to Evan and spoke in a calm but firm tone. "You are right. I am Krythorion, a silver guard under the command of Mother Edlesa, and I am here to capture you."

Evan was surprised that Krythorion had answered his question so directly. But his attention was immediately drawn to the words Silver Guard and Mother Edlesa. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

'Mother Edlesa... Is that the name of the Primordial who wants to capture me?' He thought to himself, his expression becoming thoughtful.

Seeing Evan's thoughtful look, it seemed as if Krythorion could guess what he was thinking, so he continued speaking.

"Mother Edlesa is the Progenitor of insects, and even among the Progenitors, she is one of the strongest."

Evan was stunned when he heard Krythorion's words, and he immediately recalled when Utharic had told him about the Origin Universe, telling him that aside from the Primordials, the strongest beings were the Progenitors, whose power rivalled that of the Primordials.

'I thought it was a Primordial who wanted to capture me, but if what this guy is saying is true, then was my guess wrong? Is the person who wants to capture me not a Primordial but this Insect Mother?' Evan's thoughts raced, growing even more confused as he recalled what had happened when Velgoth tried to tell him about the person who wanted to capture him.

'Velgoth was not able to speak the name of the person who wants to capture me, as if some kind of power was stopping him. Although I don't know much about the Progenitors, I don't think they have the ability to seal someone's mouth like that,' He pondered, looking at Krythorion and Zalga, who still seemed oddly relaxed as though they were on vacation.

"The Insect Mother you spoke of... Is she the one who wants to capture me, or is there someone else who asked her to do it?" Evan asked in a low voice.

Krythorion shrugged his shoulders when he heard the question and replied calmly.

"As far as I know, there is someone else who asked Mother Edlesa to capture you, and she agreed because that person offered a thing she couldn't refuse."

Evan's eyes narrowed when he heard Krythorion's words, and he asked coldly.

"What kind of offer would make a Progenitor work for someone else? And who is the person who wants to capture me?"

"I can't tell who wants to capture you..." Krythorion shook his head and seeing Evan's frown, he added, "It's not that I don't want to tell you; it's just that I am not allowed to speak about it."

'So his situation is the same as with Velgoth and he also can't speak the name of the person who asked this insect mother to capture me...' Evan thought, sighing inwardly.

"As for what they offered Mother Edlesa..." Krythorion continued, his gaze turning deep as he looked at Evan.

For some reason, when Evan saw Krythorion's deep gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively took a step back.

Zalga smiled slightly when he saw Evan's reaction, and the antennas on his ant-like head trembled with excitement and he finished Krythorion's sentence.

"Mother Edlesa is always interested in giving birth to new types of insects with endless potential. The person who asked her to capture you promised her that, if she succeeded, they would help her obtain your genes and allow her to give birth to the most powerful insects that have ever existed."
