Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 261 Problem

?

'What? You're not fond of killing animals, but aren't you completely unaffected if it's other humans?' Vale was a bit stunned after hearing Headmaster Jean's mutterings.

He didn't expect that this scary Headmaster would be this eccentric.

'Was he going easy on them because they were transformed into animals? Ugh… What a weird Headmaster.' Vale could only shake his head at this since this only proves that all Dark Arts Practitioners have some sort of weirdness in them.

Nevertheless, Vale witnessed how strong the Headmaster really was.

While he was using his Shadow Soldier to deal with the fake student of the Academy, he also started using three more Spells to deal with the three Bears!

'Four Spells at the same time?' Vale looked at the Headmaster with great interest.

After all, he was only capable of doing some dual casting.

As a matter of fact, he had been practicing his Tri-Casting for quite some time now.

At the moment, if he used his Lightspeed followed by his Ghost Hands, casting a third spell, like Spirit Vision, would cancel his Lightspeed Spell or the first Spell he cast.

Even if he fully concentrated, the third Spell would only last for a brief second which was utterly useless. At the very least, using a Mystical Item as his third Spell could be used as an alternative.

It was such a difficult task, and he could probably surpass his limit after a few months or years of practice.

'Incredible… Headmaster was using Shadow Soldier, Darkness Manipulation, Corruption Chains, and another dark spell I'm not even aware of… Wait, is that—'

Boom!

The Bear charging at the Headmaster, suddenly crashed to the floor. Vale's eyes lit up as he briefly saw what had happened.

The moment the Headmaster triggered the Dark Spell on the ferocious Bear, Vale realized what was the fourth Dark Spell that he was using.

"Shadow Marionnette!"

Vale exclaimed.

Shadow Marrionnette was the fourth Academy-Exclusive Dark Spell that was optional for the students. The students were only required to Record the Darkness Manipulation, Light Absorption, and Shadow Soldier.

This fourth Dark Spell was extremely difficult to record, and some Professors don't even have this Dark Spell recorded on their Spell Lights.

The moment the first Bear crashed to the ground, the two others followed as their dropped head first to the ground.

However, this didn't end their lives.

Poof… Poof… Poof…

Suddenly, the three ferocious bears that were supposedly unconscious disappeared, leaving the crashed floor in full sight.

Headmaster Jean didn't need to speak as Vale already knew what to do.

With the activation of his Divine Sense, he immediately located the three Shapeshifters.

Vale didn't speak with his voice as he used his telepathy while his Divine Sense was active since he didn't want to inform the enemies that he was capable of seeing through their disguise.

'Headmaster, they turned into objects as you expected… They turned into one of the broken stones.'

'What an impressive ability… Let them stay there for now. Let them think that we can't find them. I'll take care of Mark first.' Headmaster Jean replied.

He was impressed by both of their skills.I think you should take a look at

Vale's perception spell and the shapeshifters' ability were something he'd rarely encountered… Perhaps, even the Order of the Evanescent Vessels members would fail to sense these Shapeshifters as well unless their Spirit Vision or other detection spells had reached the Advanced Realm.

Vale couldn't help but smile at this plan as he even acted surprised at the sudden disappearance of the Shapeshifters.

"Headmaster, where did they go?" He asked while trying to look around.

"They most likely escaped. I'll deal with this foolish student first." Headmaster Jean cooperated as he attacked Mark with all his might.

He knows that the three shapeshifters were injured because he used his Shadow Marionette on them to control them for 2 seconds, enough to crash their heads to the reinforced floor of the building.

They were lucky that there weren't any pikes or sharp objects near them, or he would have used them to put a hole in their heads.

'I guess we're done here, huh…' Vale silently thought as he could already tell how this battle would end.

The intruders in front of the Academy are slowly getting captured or killed by the Professors and the members of the Order.

Although there were also casualties on the Dark Arts Faction's side, there were only a handful of them, excluding the guards who were killed in the first encounter.

***

In the meantime, while Vale was watching the Headmaster capture Mark and secretly monitoring the three Shapeshifters, someone had finally noticed his disappearance within the classroom.

"W-what happened?! Did he get captured by the enemies?" Professor Shirley asked in shock as she looked at the people beside Vale's seat.

The empty seat in the back row was in perfect condition, so she could tell that Vale didn't have a chance of fighting back when he was 'captured.'

'Not good…'

She immediately returned to the Class as soon as the matter in the hallway was dealt with, and she certainly did not see anyone going out of the classroom then.

Only when Leonore tried looking for Vale did everyone realize that he had actually disappeared.

Unfortunately, the students around Vale's seat also had no idea when Vale had disappeared.

"P-professor, do you think he was targeted by those intruders?" Leonore asked in concern.

Vale was simply too excellent. Perhaps, the Secret Organization had heard of his talent, and they targeted him to bring him to their Organization.

"T-that's…" Lisa wanted to deny Leonore's guess, but that was actually quite possible.

Considering Vale's talent, he would undoubtedly be desired by an Organization that didn't care about your Arcane Path.

They were all aware that the Secret Organization came from different Arcane Paths and could care less about their enemies. Forcefully recruiting Vale was certainly something they were capable of.

At this point, Professor Shirley was already feeling worried, so she decided to inform the other Professors in the nearby rooms.

"Vale disappeared?" Professor Morton frowned as he heard Shirley's claim. He also swiftly used his Spirits to look around the surrounding area.

"Then what are we waiting for?! Let's search for him! Inform the Vessels outside!" Professor Stella immediately said as she was also worried about Vale's situation.

As for the person they were looking for, he still had no idea about the problem he had caused.
