"Is that the monster I saw when I first entered the realm of the dead?" Ray squinted his eyes.
The skeletal figure, cloaked in black, revealed only its hollow eye sockets and held a scythe in its hand.
This was the image Ray had seen before; it appeared in his mind when the Necromancer reached Awakening II.
Ray couldn't see in this deep darkness, but he wasn't as scared as he had been before.
It felt like it couldn't harm him in the slightest now; instead, it felt more subservient to him.
It was as if he could control this eerie darkness to some extent.
Necromancers are beings who are close to the realm of the dead and have a certain affinity with it.
Ray, too, had an affinity with the realm of the dead. However, even with this previous connection, he would still feel that terrifying sensation, especially when he was unable to pull a soul out of this realm.
As Ray floated forward, his pupils shrank.
