Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 657 The Sprite Of The Tower Of Ascension (Part 1)

"So... What do you want to talk about?" Noir asked Evan once they left the room where Mogul and the others were.

Evan didn't reply to her, instead, he used shadow senses and called out Hana from his shadow storage.

The moment Hana came out of Evan's shadow storage, Noir stopped walking and looked at her with a frown on her face. But the frown on her face was soon replaced by a shocked look.

"This familiar aura..." Noir muttered in a shocked voice while looking at Hana.

Looking at the way Noir reacted after seeing Hana, Evan narrowed his eyes.

'From her reaction, I can confirm that Hana is definitely related to her somehow,' Evan thought inwardly as he watched Noir looking at Hana with a shocked look.

After a moment, Noir tried to pick up Hana from the ground, but when Hana saw this, she immediately jumped away from her and climbed up on Evan's shoulder.

"You_ what have you done to Claire?" Noir asked Evan in a furious voice when she saw what just happened.

"Claire?" Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard Noir and pointed at Hana. "You mean her name is Claire?"

"She suddenly disappeared two years ago. So you were the one who took her away," Noir didn't answer Evan and looked at him with raged filled eyes.

"Oy Oy, hold your horses. I was not even in the world domain two_"

"Return Claire to me," Noir suddenly jumped toward Evan and tried to take away Hana while slashing at him with her sharp cat like claws.

Seeing her sharp claws, Evan used his high agility and quickly dodged her attack.

"Oy Neko*, I mean leader Noir can you listen to me before you do anythi_" Evan tried to explain to Noir after dogging her attack but Noir didn't give him any chance and jumped towards him once again.

"Damn, why is this cat so unreasonable?" Evan cursed Inwardly and barely dodged another of Noir's attacks.

Although Evan's agility was very high and he was even wearing Boots Of Voidgazer, it was still not easy for him to dodge Noir's attack who was very agile.

'I can't fight her seriously otherwise this entire castle will be destroyed and the lives of most of the S rank Orcs will be in danger. If that happens I am sure Mogul will also try to kill me no matter what,' Evan thought and tried to think of a way to get out of this situation.

Suddenly, Evan looked at Hana who was still glued on his right shoulder and was treating him like a roller-coaster ride.

"This Rascal_" Black lines appeared on Evan's forehead when he saw Hana was enjoying herself while he was trying to save his life.

"Since she is related to you then you should be the one solving this mess," Evan suddenly grabbed Hana and threw her towards Noir.

Mewooo!

Hana mewod loudly in fright when Evan threw her towards Noir and tried to balance herself in mid air.

"Claire," But before she could balance herself, she was caught by Noir.

Mewoo!

Hana used her claws and tried to break free from Noir's clutches, but she couldn't do anything against her.

"What happened to you? Why aren't you in your human form? And why has your rank dropped from the peak of Rank One to S?" Noir threw a barrage of questions at Hana after catching her.

Evan was completely stunned when he heard the questions that Noir asked Hana.

'What the hell is she talking about?' Evan muttered inwardly when he heard Noir's questions. 'Hana was just a B rank monster when I met her but from what she is saying it seems like there is something wrong here.'

Hana didn't answer Noir's question when she heard her and tried to get away from her.

"I see, this guy must have done something to you, due to which you have become like this," Noir suddenly said and looked at Evan with cold eyes.

"Hey, enough of your bullshit. Don't think you can say whatever you want just because you have a mouth." Evan said in a frustrated voice when he heard Noir.

Suddenly, Noir thought about something and looked back at Evan.

"You just said that cat monster tried to kill you but died because of some unknown reason."

"Yes," Evan nodded his head because he still wasn't sure how Hana died at that time.

"If that cat monster died then who is she?" She looked back at Hana and asked. During all this time she was so shocked after seeing Hana that she did not care about her unusual appearance, but now that she looked at her closely, she was finally able to tell that there was something wrong with Hana.

Evan already expected Noir to ask this question so he didn't hide the truth from her.

"She is an undead."

Noir eyes opened wide when she heard Evan and her body started to shake. She looked at Hana who was sitting on her lap and finally noticed the unusual aura around her.

"Un-undead..." she muttered in a trembling voice and tried to calm down her chaotic mind.

"I don't know if Hana is the Claire you are talking about or not, but everything I told you before was true. Besides..." He said and patted Hana's head. "... The undeads I create using my skill are special because they retain all of their memories and don't lose their ego even after becoming undead. Since Hana doesn't recognize you it means that even when she was alive she had no memories about you."

"You...are you sure she is an undead?" Noir asked in a shaking voice.

Evan sighed when he heard Noir and summoned a few more shadow undeads from his shadow storage.

Seeing more of the shadow undeads, Noir was convinced that Hana was an undead.

'From her earlier behaviour I can tell that she was quite close with Claire,' Evan said inwardly after he showed his shadow undeads to Noir. 'I just hope that she won't start attacking me once again after knowing I turned her friend into a shadow undead.'

Evan was expecting Noir to be angry after learning that he had turned Hana into an undead, but contrary to his expectations, Noir sighed in relief after hearing him and a relieved expression appeared on her face.

"What the fu*k with this sudden change in mood?" Evan couldn't help but blurt out loud when he saw a relieved look on Noir's face.

"I don't know what is going on here and why her aura is similar to Claire's, but if she is an undead then there is no way she is my Claire because Claire is still alive."

"What the..." Evan was stunned when he heard Noir and he looked at her with a weird look on his face.

Seeing the way Evan was looking at her, Noir patted Hana's head and said in a calm voice.

"We have an artefact called Soul Lamp. As long as a person mark it with their spiritual power it can tell whether that person is alive or not. Claire also marked the soul lamp with her spiritual power and according to the soul lamp, she is still alive so there is no way this undead is my Claire."

"But just a moment ago you were saying you would never mistake Claire's aura and were shouting she is definitely Clair_"

Evan stopped midway when he saw how Noir was looking at him.

"I am honestly confused," Noir said once Evan stopped speaking. "I am still sure that her aura is completely similar to Claire and she is somehow related to her, but how are both of them related and what happened to her I can't be sure about that."

Evan fell silent upon hearing Noir. He thought about everything and said after a moment.

"I think all of these things are somehow related to the Tower Of Ascension."

Noir immediately shook her head when she heard Evan.

"Claire was a native of the World Domain so she could not even go close to the Tower Of Ascension. So I don't think this matter is related to the Tower Of Ascension."

"Actually, something strange happened when I first arrived at the World Domain yesterday," Evan said when he heard Noir and told her about the gaze he felt after arriving at the World Domain and how Hana was behaving oddly at that time.

Noir narrowed her eyes when she heard Evan.

"Are saying that..."

Evan nodded his head when he saw Noir's narrowed eyes.

"I think the Sprite of the Tower Of Ascension is somehow involved in this matter."
