303 Merit Shop (Part 1)
Evan's eyes snapped open and he stood up while panting heavily. His body was drenched in cold sweat and his heart was beating like a war drum.
"What the hell was that?" Evan muttered while trying to calm down.
His aura was completely chaotic and he noticed the shadow energy inside his monarch core was restless.
If not for the fact that he doesn't have much shadow energy left after what he did earlier on the front line, he was sure that some of his shadow energy would have leaked out from his core.
Currently, he was feeling many emotions at the same time.
Happiness, anger, hatred but the strongest emotion he was feeling was... Guilt.
"Just what was that dream?" he said trying to understand why he was feeling so many emotions.
As far as he remembered, he never felt strong emotions like these. Even in his previous life he never felt emotions like this.
But for some reason currently, he was feeling so many emotions at the same time that he wasn't able to understand what was happening.
Moreover, unlike his previous dreams where he wasn't able to remember them after waking up, he can remember this dream perfectly even after waking up.
"That girl, why do I feel like I know her?" Evan muttered while rubbing his temples.
He doesn't know what was happening, but for some reason, he was feeling he knew that small girl who he saw in the dream.
Plus, whenever he recall the last scene of the dream where he saw her ripped apart body, he felt like someone is squeezing his heart.
"Why do I always have such weird dreams?" Evan said out loud feeling irritated because of his strange situation.
He looked around him and saw he was still on the rooftop of the building. The sky was already dark, and Eclipse was standing not far away from him using its stealth skill.
He looked at his bracelet to see the time and saw it was already ten o'clock.
There were also some messages from Edward and Sophie but he ignored them for now.
"I slept for more than eight hours" Evan muttered after seeing the time.
After seeing the time he looked at the starry sky recalling how he was doing the same thing in his dream.
"Just what the fu*k is wrong with me," he said because the image of the girl he saw in his dream, and the dead body that he saw earlier on the attack site was overlapping again and again.
He doesn't know why, but whenever he recalls the dead body of the little girl he saw earlier he felt his anger rising.
"Dark guild" Evan muttered and for a moment his eyes turned completely cold.
He stood up and looked in the direction of the destroyed area of the city which was not far away from his current location.
"I don't know what is happening with me, but I will make sure they will regret what they did today"
Evan summoned back Eclipse into his shadow storage, and came down from the building using shadow wings and shadow walk.
After waking up his headache decrease a lot and he wasn't feeling exhausted like before.
After coming down he started to walk away from that area going towards one of the hotels.
While going back he called Edward who tried to contact him earlier when he was sleeping.
After telling Edward he didn't die in the B rank zone he asked him when will they leave.
"There will be a funeral in three days for the hunters and people who died during monster tide and the attack of the dark guild, we will leave from here after that," Edward said to him before ending the call.
"A funeral huh" Evan muttered and sighed.
Other than fifteen thousand people who died in the attack of the dark guild, there were around three thousand five hundred hunters who died in the monster tide.
"The death rate of this monster tide is also very high"
After calling Edward he sent a message to Sophie and others telling them he was fine.
They also sent him message earlier asking him if he was fine since he left from there without saying anything.
After sending them a message that he was fine he quickly left from there.
He took a taxi and asked the driver to bring him to any nearby hotel.
But most of the hotels in that area were already full so it took him three hours before he was able to find a hotel.
"Wasted so much time in finding a hotel room" Evan muttered when he entered his hotel room.
After coming to his room he first took a long shower to clean the blood and dirt on his body.
"I have three days before we leave from here," he said out loud thinking what should he do for the next three days.
If it was normal time he might have thought about travelling around the city since it is the first time he came to Naphliam city, but after what happened recently he wasn't in the mood to travel around the city.
"Let's think about it tomorrow when the time comes," he said and came out from the bathroom.
After wearing his clothes, he first ordered a normal meal for him. He did not eat anything during the monster tide so his stomach was protesting.
After eating the meal he lay down on his bed, and stared at the ceiling of the room with a dazed look.
The scenes of what he saw in dreams were coming into his mind again and again.
Even after ten minutes when he wasn't able to stop thinking about the dream he stood up from his bed.
"I should check out what I got from this monster tide to distract my mind" Evan muttered to himself and looked at his shadow.
The next second he used his shadow storage skill and took out the two bracelets from it.
