Evan’s prime core absorbed all energy that he wanted to refine through his monarch core, when his prime core absorbed all energy it was filled with many cracks and Evan was panting heavily because of the pain he was feeling in his chest area.
“What the hell was that?” Evan said after some time when the pain in his chest area lessened a bit.
Evan checked his prime core and was horrified when he saw many cracks all over it, Evan quickly took out another core from his storage ring and refined it using his mana and used the energy of the core to heal his prime core.
When the refined energy came near his prime core it started to heal cracks on it and when he absorbed all energy of the core all cracks on the core disappeared and his prime core also advanced to F+ rank.
Evan sighed in relief when the cracks of his core were healed and his prime core also advanced to F+ rank. His prime core was almost shattered because it was not able to handle the unrefined energy of the core that Evan absorbed directly.
Unlike his monarch core which can absorb the energy without refining it his prime core can only absorb energy after Evan refines it by using his mana, but just now for some reason, his monarch core did not absorb the unrefined energy and it moved near his prime core that almost destroyed it.
“Why my monarch core stopped absorbing more energy?” Evan was confused by this sudden turn of events, Evan opened his status window and looked at his progress.

After seeing his status window and how his monarch core directed the energy towards his prime core Evan concluded that to increase the rank of his monarch core Evan first have to increase the rank of his prime core.
“I still have seven cores left in my storage ring these cores should be enough to advance my prime core to E rank” Evan decided to improve the rank of his prime core after he was unable to absorb energy using his monarch core.
At first, Evan thought that his monarch core will be advance easily since it can absorb 100% energy of the core but only when he start absorbing did he find out that even though his monarch core can absorb 100% of energy from a core it still requires more cores than his prime core.
But Evan was not bothered by this because he can feel that every time his monarch core advanced he receive a great boost in his power that his prime core can never provide.
Evan absorbed his remaining cores and just as he expected his prime core was advanced to E rank when he finished absorbing all the cores that he received after sacrificing his shadow physique.
When his prime core advanced to E rank Evan felt his body being strengthened to another degree and he can’t help but let out a sigh of satisfaction when he felt the boundless power that was running inside his body.

Evan checked his states and was surprised when he noticed his charm did not increase after his prime core advanced to E rank, Evan closed his status window and finally stood up when he finished absorbing all cores.
Evan felt a little odd when he stood up because his height which was 180cm previously now increased to 185cm but he adjusted with it quickly and looked at the crumbled wall from which he came into this odd hall room.
Evan looked in the hall room but he didn’t find anything other than a small mountain of dust that was formed after the statue and the platform turned into dust because of the black aura that erupted from his monarch core when it washed formed.
When Evan did not find any trace of the person who spoke to him he started to walk outside the hall room. Evan came out from the hall room through the crumbled wall he saw the corpse of the bat that almost killed him with its last attack.
But Evan had to close his eyes for some time because he felt the hallway was too bright and he is looking at the sun directly.
After some time his eyes were able to adjust according to light and when he saw the hall room behind the crumbled wall he was surprised to find out that the entire hall room was completely dark but he can still see everything clearly ‘i also got a night vision’ Evan thought when he finds out he can even see in complete darkness.
After his eyes were adjusted to light Evan came near the bat, his sword was stuck in its head and it was clear that the bat died because of the sword attack that Evan did to it at the last moment.
Evan came near the corpse of the bat and pulled out his sword, after pulling out his sword he looked for the core, and to his surprise, he found a core inside the body of the bat.
Evan happily put away the core inside his storage ring along with the other three cores that he got earlier by killing monsters, he did not absorb these cores because although he now have enough strength to enter the dungeon without the invisibility potion he still wanted to sell some cores to earn a little money his bank account almost got empty when he purchased the invisibility potion to enter the dungeon.
“I think my days of living on cup noodles are over now” Evan said with an emotional tone because for the past two years since he was saving money he was forced to eat cup noodles every day.
“After selling the cores I will definitely go to the most famous restaurant to eat something,” Evan said and started walking towards the exit of the dungeon.
When Evan was just 700 meters away from the exit portal he saw a lion-like monster who was two meters tall blocking his way, but instead but feeling the fear that he felt when he saw the bat, this time Evan did not even flinch and continued to walk toward the lion with steady steps, for some reason when he saw shadow lion monster he did not feel an ounce of threat from it.
Evan also wanted to test his current power so he calmly walk towards the lion, when the lion felt the presence of Evan it looked towards his direction, and when its deep yellow eyes met with Evan’s pitch black eyes for some reason the lion felt the shadow power inside his body trembled because it looked in those deep black eyes.
