Necromancer Of The Shadows-Chapter 845 Leopold

"Any news?" A middle-aged man with short black hair wearing a black suit asked in a neutral tone.

"Our people are looking for them everywhere but there is still no news about them."

"What about Percival, did he find anything?"

"I contacted him a few hours ago. Unfortunately, even he wasn't able to find anything."

The man wearing the black suit raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Even using his foresight skill, Percival couldn't find anything about them?"

"Yes, Master."

"Hmmm..." The man in the suit tapped his finger on the chair with a pondering look on his face.

"What about Alaric? Any news from him?"

"No, his subordinates are searching all over the dark forest, but they also didn't find anything."

"I see..." The man in the suit spoke in a neutral tone, but his eyes were filled with frustration, indicating he was not as calm as he was trying to show.

"Keep an eye on everything. Let me know if you find anything." The man said after a moment, and a shadow who was kneeling in the room disappeared.

Once the shadow disappeared, the man in the suit sighed and leaned back on his couch.

"Just what the hell is wrong with those two people? They are just pesky low level Core Evolvers, but even high-ranking Core Evolvers with foresight Skills and Authorities can't find anything about them..." Leopold, the owner of the Bloodmoon auction house spoke in a tired voice as he massaged his temples.

The damage that the Bloodmoon auction house received because of Cedar and Evan's action was far above than he thought.

Even though Lucian (Unfortunate soul who was the host that day) tried to hide this incident, even going as far as to pay the owner of the Enlightenment Stone using his own money (which practically made him go bankrupt and fall into an ocean of debt), this incident still spread among the masses and the credibility of Bloodmoon Auction house dropped to very bottom. fre ewebno vel.com

The Bloodmoon auction house was the biggest and most influential auction house of the Star City, and there were many people who wanted to take their place, so when these people heard about this incident, they fueled the fire of the incident even more, and the credibility of the auction house dropped even further.

As a result, during the last two monthly auctions, the Bloodmoon Auction house's income dropped by nearly 40%.

The Bloodmoon auction house was one of the biggest auction houses of Utopia, so the 40% drop was practically the loss of millions of high-level essence stones... And for Leopold, who was a merchant before being a Core Evolver, it was a huge blow.

Leopold tried to save the situation of the auction house by announcing that he would definitely capture the people responsible for stealing the Enlightenment Stone, but even after more than two months, they were still unable to catch Evan and Cedar.

"From all the information we gathered, it is obvious that both of them disappeared inside the Dark Forest..." Leopold spoke with a frown on his face. "It is practically impossible for someone to hide from Alaric inside the dark forest, but even then he wasn't able to find them, or could it be that..." Leopold narrowed his eyes and a dangerous glint shone inside his eyes. "Could it be that he knew about them but is hiding them from me?"

"But if he is really hiding them from me, then what is the reason? I gave him many precious things in order to find them and even promised to give a Rank Five monster core if he successfully found them. I don't think he would be foolish enough to become my enemy just because of a Rank One and Rank Two Core Evolvers."

Leopold thought about this matter for a long time. As a Rank Five Core Evolver, he knew how terrifying the influence of a High Level Core Evolver could be, not to mention the influence of a Rank Six Core Evolver like Alaric.

After considering everything, Leopold practically found it impossible to believe that Alaric didn't know anything about Evan and Cedar, especially when both of them went inside the Dark Forest, which was basically his territory.

"I can only think of two reasons..." Leopold muttered in a low voice. "Either the information we have about them is wrong, and they never went inside the Dark Forest, which is why Alaric can't find them, or..." The vampire's eyes narrowed and a murderous aura started to come out of his body. "He is purposely hiding them from me and even preventing my people from finding them."

Though Leopold felt the possibility of Alaric hiding Evan and Cedar from him was very low, he still couldn't erase this thought from his mind.

After contemplating for a few minutes, he finally made a decision. His black eyes glowed blood red for a moment, and soon, the shadow that disappeared from the room once again appeared there.

"Master," The shadow spoke in a respectful voice while kneeling in front of Leopold. freewebnove(l).com

"Make arrangements, I will go to the Dark Forest myself."

Though no one could see the face of the shadow, from the shudder of his body, it was obvious that he was shocked upon hearing Leopold. Although he was shocked, the shadow quickly recomposed himself and asked in a cautious voice.

"Should I inform Alaric about you? As you know, it is not a good idea for a high-ranking Core Evolver like you to visit his territory without telling him."

Leopold didn't answer immediately and thought for a few minutes. After a full five minutes of silence, Leopold opened his mouth.

"There is no need to inform him; I will talk to him once we get there."

"Yes, Master," The shadow didn't question Leopold's decision and immediately disappeared from the room.

Leopold stayed seated on his chair for a few seconds before he stood up as well.

"Let's see if that foxy bastard is really doing his job properly or not after taking all of those things from me..." He muttered in a low voice and walked towards the door.

"If he is doing his job properly, I will increase the amount that I am giving him for his help as a compensation for visiting his territory without telling him, but if he is not doing his job properly..." Leopold's eyes glowed blood red and he left the room.
