Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1216  Blessing Of The Tree Of Life And Meeting (Part 1)

Evan used his wind manipulation skill to create a wind barrier around the sealed ice cocoon and ordered some of his shadow undead to guard the area and notify him if they detected any anomalies.

Once he had sorted out Valery's problem, he shifted his gaze to the colossal Tree of Life that covered the sky, towering over the earth.

"So, what's the story behind this tree?" He asked Elysia without turning to look at her.

When Elysia heard Evan's question, she began to sweat profusely, beads of cold sweat pouring down from the top of her head like rainwater.

Evan frowned when Elysia didn't say anything and turned around to look at her. But when he saw her drenched in sweat, his heart turned cold, and he, too, broke out in a cold sweat.

"You... D-don't tell me there is a problem with this Tree of Life as well..." He asked in a trembling voice, feeling as if his soul was about to leave his body and fly straight into hell or heaven.

"Haha..." Elysia laughed awkwardly at first, but then suddenly, her expression changed, and she shouted in a shocked voice while pointing behind Evan, "Look! A chicken is driving a UFO!"

Evan was startled by Elysia's sudden shout, and just as he was about to turn around, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Elysia running away.

Seeing she was trying to run away, black lines appeared on Evan's forehead, and he took a step forward.

The space in front of him rippled, and he disappeared from where he stood. Immediately afterwards, Elysia felt space fluctuations around her, and before she could react—

Bang!

A fist emerged above her, hammering down on her head and leaving behind the biggest bump imaginable.

Elysia squatted down to the ground, immediately covering her head with teary eyes. She raised her eyes slightly and saw Evan standing in front of her, his expression utterly blank.

"Now, tell me—what kind of problem is this tree going to cause for me?" Evan asked his tone calm but with a clear edge of irritation.

Elysia, rubbing her head with a pained expression, stood up, and just as she was about to speak, a black-golden light flashed above her, and Elora appeared, calmly sitting on Elysia's shoulder.

Elora eyed the bump on Elysia's head, which now looked like a ball, and began tugging at it, as though she wanted to take the bump and play with it.

Elysia and Evan glanced at Elora, who was trying to pull off the bump, and silently agreed to ignore her antics. After all, what harm was there in a child wanting to play with a ball?

Though Evan chose to overlook the scene because of the urgent matter at hand, he slyly used the camera on his smart bracelet to snap a few pictures, intending to frame them later.

"All right, back to the matter at hand. So, what kind of problem is this tree going to cause me?" Evan asked again, this time taking a quick look at the photos he had just taken.

Elysia endured the pain of her ball...cough cough... her bump being extracted and spoke in a low voice.

"Master, it's nothing too serious. You will just have to deal with that woman once we return to Utopia."

"Deal with that woman..." Evan repeated, frowning as he processed her words.

He was about to ask who she meant, but then he remembered the phantom that had appeared when Elysia was promoted to rank four, and his expression darkened. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"You... you are talking about Eilistraea..." He said, his voice filled with uncertainty.

"Bingo! You guessed it right!" Elysia clapped her hands in mock celebration but quickly put on a regretful expression. "Too bad there is no prize for you."

Evan felt a sudden itch in his hands at her words and if Elora hadn't been sitting on Elysia's shoulders, he might have already started beating her.

'Calm down, calm down... It's not her fault. She just wanted to reinforce the earth to protect it that's why she summoned the phantom of the Tree Of Life...' He chanted inwardly, but for some reason, he could vividly imagine Elysia laughing like a madwoman when she had summoned the Tree of Life's phantom, shouting about how her master would deal with all the problems.

'Damn it! I know my Doom Bringer bloodline reduces my luck somewhat but isn't this too much? I keep running into problem after problem and can't even catch a breath...' Evan cursed inwardly and felt like crying.

At this moment, he really wanted to go back to the hidden world of the Dryads and live under the protection of big shots like Anastasia, Sylvan, and the others.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and after a moment, spoke again in a low voice, "Is there anything else this Tree of Life can do?"

Elysia grabbed Elora, who was still trying to pull out the bump and held her like a plush toy in her arms, nodding her head vigorously.

"Yes, I can grant you the blessing of the Tree of Life. It will definitely help us beat that woman once we go back to Utopia."

"A blessing..." Evan's eyes lit up when he heard her, and for the first time in what felt like forever, he wanted to cry tears of joy.

He didn't know exactly what this blessing was, but from the way Elysia spoke, he could tell it was something good.

'Finally... finally some good news...' He shouted inwardly, cheering as he waited for Elysia to elaborate.

Elysia smiled proudly and looked toward the phantom of the Tree of Life. Evan followed her gaze and saw a branch glowing with a deep green light descending from the sky toward him.

He was surprised as he watched the branch approach his location from hundreds of kilometres away and guessed that if Elysia wanted, she could probably cover the entire earth with the Tree of Life.

The branch stopped just above Evan's head, and the green light around it began condensing into a single drop of green water.

'Is this... the Water of Life?' Evan wondered, remembering the Water of Life they had auctioned off in the Magmara Kingdom to frame Halphas and kill Anderson.

As he pondered this, the green drop detached from the branch and fell onto his head, sinking into his body.

Boom!

The moment the green drop entered his body, a pillar of radiant green light burst forth from him, shooting straight toward the sky.
