chapter 1263 the cursed one title (part 1)
evan listened attentively as anastasia explained the changes that had occurred within the primordial shadow realm, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
anastasia had just contacted her essence clone, which had provided her with all the details about the changes that had taken place within the primordial shadow realm over the past few days.
when her essence clone told her about the large number of shadow undeads who had awakened from their slumber due to the increased density of the primordial shadow energy, she was quite shocked as she had believed that these undeads would only awaken after evan integrated the shadow realm with his core.
on the other hand, evan was most surprised when he heard about the portal that led to the location of the azragoth world.
the azragoth world was located near the chaotic zone in the origin universe. after returning, he found himself with no way to go back there because the passage velgoth had created had been completely destroyed when the shadow realm assimilated the azragoth world.
furthermore, he couldn't even ask velgoth to create another passage leading to the azragoth world, as the first one had been created by accident.
velgoth's original intention had simply been to escape the azragoth world with his people. when he created the passage, he hadn't been able to control its destination due to the interference of the nearby chaotic zone.
the destination was entirely random, and, surprisingly, instead of leading somewhere else in the origin universe, the passage had opened on earthâa world that was no longer part of the origin universe.
even if evan asked velgoth to repeat the process, it would be nearly impossible for him to create another passage leading back to the azragoth world's former location or anywhere else in the origin universe.
although evan currently had no plans to visit the origin universe, this was only because his strength was insufficient.
once his power reached an appropriate level, he intended to go there. until now, he had been wondering how he would go to the origin universe when the time came.
'this timing matches exactly with when i destroyed mytherenor's essence clone on earth...' evan thought with a frown. 'could it be that the person secretly monitoring the primordial shadow realm is that bastard?'
when anastasia noticed evan's troubled expression after hearing about the observer, she raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"what's the matter? it's not the first time someone has secretly monitored the shadow realm," she said lightly. "if i had to guess, it's probably a high-level demon or dragon. other than those two factions, no one else knows the location of the shadow realm."
evan remained silent at her words. while her reasoning made sense, he couldn't shake the feeling that his guess was correct.
he strongly suspected that the observer wasn't a demon or dragon but rather the progenitor of elvesâsomeone who had likely exposed himself when he completely erased his essence clone from existence on earth.
seeing evan's silence, anastasia frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
"what's wrong?" she asked.
evan took a deep breath before explaining the situation to anastasia. he recounted his experiences in the blood dungeon and the events leading up to it, including what the will of earth had told him.
when anastasia heard about mytherenor, her expression shifted, and a rare look of seriousness appeared on her face.
"are you certain it was the essence clone of the progenitor of elves?" she asked.
evan shook his head.
"i'm not one hundred percent sure. the will of earth was the one who told me, and i have no way of confirming whether it was telling the truth," evan replied before pausing.
"however, it doesn't seem like there is any reason for it to lie to me. so, i think it might have been telling the truth."
