213 Successful Connection And A New Problem (Part 2)
In the shadow kingdom dungeon, after advancing his monarch core to D rank, Evan wasn't able to increase its rank at that time.
When he tried to increase the rank of his monarch core at that time, it did not absorb the energy of the core because if its rank had increased at that time, his prime core which was just F rank would have shattered because of its pressure.
Currently, the situation was the same at that time.
Because of forming a connection with the shadow realm, and receiving its blessing, Evan's monarch core level was increasing at a rapid speed.
Because its level was increasing, his D+ rank prime core was not able to handle the pressure released by it.
It was the first time in history something like this was happening.
Anything like this never happened before, because of one simple reason.
No one among forbidden physique holders ever had a second core other than their monarch core!
All the people who had forbidden physique were born with it, so from the moment they were born they already had monarch core in their heart.
Because they were born with a monarch core they didn't have a second core.
But Evan's condition is completely different.
He was born with shadow physique, not with shadow monarch physique so he had a prime core when he was born.
He received his shadow monarch physique when he awakened his skill shadow walk.
The problem where he was only able to absorb shadow cores was also caused by the fact that he had two physiques.
But that problem disappeared after he lost his shadow physique in the shadow kingdom dungeon.
After losing his shadow physique, when he only had shadow monarch physique he finally got his monarch core.
Evan's body started to shake and an expression of pain was visible on his face.
His prime core was currently filled with cracks and was breaking apart.
As his monarch core was absorbing shadow energy, the pressure on his prime core was also increasing.
The energy fluctuations coming out from his body also increased.
Suddenly Layal remembered about the piolet of the jet and looked towards the cockpit.
Even an A rank hunter like her felt such great pressure from those energy fluctuations, and the pilot of the jet was just an E+ rank hunter.
With shaky legs, Layla moved towards the cockpit.
When she arrived there she was stunned to see the pilot already passed out, and blood was coming out from his mouth.
She checked his pulse and was even more shocked because he was already dead.
She looked at the control screen of the jet and saw the words 'AUTO PIOLET MODE'
The only reason the jet didn't crash till now was because, before passing out the pilot activated autopilot mode.
Seeing the passed out pilot, and the strange situation with Evan Layla's mind was in chaos.
She didn't know what to do.
If she wants, she can easily jump down from the jet. She is an A rank hunter and can use fly to safely escape from here.
But the problem was Evan who was causing all this rucks.
She wasn't sure what she should do with him.
If she left him here and something happened to him she don't know what Sera will do with her.
Moreover, she doesn't have much time to make a decision.
There is no set destination for the jet, and it was just flying like a headless chicken in autopilot mode.
Currently, she wasn't far away from the Aquaville city, and can return there easily, but if she doesn't make a decision and went deeper into the wilderness, it will be dangerous even for her.
She looked at Evan one last time and finally made up her mind.
There was no way she can bring Evan with her when his body is releasing such strong energy fluctuations.
She will lose control over her mana, and it will be dangerous for her when her soul is already damaged if she brings him with her.
Slowly Layla started to walk toward the door of the jet.
While Lyala was thinking all of this, a change also occurred with Evan's monarch core.
When his monarch core reached at the peak of C rank, and his prime core was on the verge of breaking, his monarch core stopped absorbing shadow energy.
Even though Evan's monarch core stopped absorbing shadow energy when his prime core was about to break, the shadow energy which was coming through the connection didn't stop.
The shadow energy started to flood his body. Evan's body started to swallow up like a balloon because of the excess shadow energy.
When it seems like Evan's body will burst like a balloon, his monarch core which stopped absorbing shadow energy once again started to absorb it.
But this time when his core absorbed the energy its level did not increase, and it stayed at the peak of rank C.
As his monarch core absorbed the excess shadow energy, Evan's swallowed up body started to return to normal.
Inside his monarch core, the shadow energy started to gather in liquid form.
His monarch core, which was only the size of a rice grain continued to absorb all the shadow energy which was flooding his body.
But it also did not last long because the amount of shadow energy which was coming through the connection was too much.
Crack...
Suddenly a small crack also appeared on his monarch core.
"Arghhhh" Evan who was unconscious was jolted awake and screamed out loud when a small crack appeared on his monarch core.
Just as Evan was jolted awake a burst of shadow energy came out from his body.
Layla, who just reached the door of the jet felt all hairs on her body stand up to no end.
Without thinking anything she jumped down from the jet and created a shield around her.
Booooommmmm-!!!!
Just as Layal jumped down from the jet, it exploded in mid air.
"Arghh" Layal's shield was destroyed and she was blown away by the shockwave.
With difficulty, she stabilized herself in mid air and looked at the place where the jet just explode.
"Is he dead?" Layal muttered thinking Evan died in that explosion just now.
But the next second she felt a chill run down her spine and a terrifying aura engulfed the entire surroundings.
