Chapter 413 - Arcana
"What? So the war against them has already started?"
"This… How come we didn't hear anything about it?"
??The Soul Arts Practitioners asked.
They heard about the attempts of the Seiji Alliance to side with the aliens. It all happened in Kazan where the aliens first landed.
They also know that they have sold information about the other countries in order to gain their trust.
In the end, the spaceships at Kazan were almost untouched if not for Wallace's decision to attack them.
[ Well, the attack happened so fast as if Seiji just wanted to show to the aliens that they are also willing to assist them. You don't have to worry about their forces right now. Luckily, Wallace dealt a heavy blow on their main force. They wouldn't be able to easily replenish their forces. ]
Veda replied hinting about Wallace's actions. The A.I. is referring to a certain location somewhere in the sea where he defeated the main army of the allied forces and gave them to the Celestial Being.
The Soul Arts Practitioners were not aware of the man's actions but it seems that everything is still according to his plans.
"So, does it mean that Wallace's whereabouts were already confirmed? Where is he?"
[ Not sure. However, you don't have to worry about him for now. If he died now at this point, it means that everyone here would not have the ability to survive against the aliens at all. What we should worry about is finding a better way to defeat the Khrusams. Most of the Magicians are still vulnerable to their Death Energy. There's also a probably with their Mech Frame's Psionic Pulse and Subspace Blaster Technology. ]
"Haa~ You're right… We have to start now…" Miss Chamber replied as she leads the team to the research room.
After a while, the Cryptic Mages had also arrived to help them with their study.
Hopefully, it wouldn't take too long before they discover the secrets of the Corpse Furnace.

"Doctor Mao, how's Master Slaine?" A young lady asked after seeing the old doctor getting out of the patient's room.
The doctor of the Cloud Hawk Manor looked at the young lady and greeted her with a smile.
"Miss Lacus… I didn't know you'll be here. Don't worry, your Master is in stable condition. He just needs to take a long rest to recover."
Doctor Mao answered.
The Grand Arcanist doesn't have visible injuries on his body because he was attacked by the alien's Death Energy and took most of his life force.
"Can I see him for now?" Lacus asked.
"Of course… You can get in. There will be two automatons standing in the room, if you need anything, just let them know."
"Yes, doctor…" Lacus then thanked the old doctor as she entered the room.
They weren't on the floating island at this time and they have arrived at Dolu City where the best medical equipment and potions are located. If the Grand Arcanist couldn't recover here, they wouldn't be able to think where else they can heal the man.
As soon as Lacus entered, she saw an old man with wrinkled skin and white hair sleeping on the bed.
"Master…" She muttered after recognizing the man.
The previous young appearance that makes him look like he was only in his thirties was no more. Because of the power of the Khrusams, the Grand Arcanist could no longer maintain his youthful looks and revealed his real age…
Lacus wasn't surprised after seeing this since her Master is one of the survivors of the first expedition in the Northern Continent. It wasn't a secret that the man was older than her grandfather.
Nevertheless, she couldn't help but be emotional after seeing the vulnerable appearance of the Grand Arcanist.
"Just recover for now master… I assure you, I will take revenge…" She whispered.
She has been practicing the revised final stage of the AOTL and she was able to create small success. She's developing the skills little by little until she can use them in real combat.
Aside from that, she still has to help Wallace's factory that is currently making some Mana Artifacts from 5th Gen to 7th Gen for the soldiers of Zairus.
Apparently, Wallace had really good control of his manpower.
The thousands of magicians who were unable to join the Space Fleet are actually hired to work in the Artifact and Mech Factories at Mt. Ravencroft.
Aside from that, he also made a small Private Army working for the Traceless Security Company.
Lacus even heard that he already bought the Golden Trident Group who was previously the owner of the solidified blood or parts of the Celestial Being.
The young lady then stayed within the patient's room for about half an hour before leaving. She can now rest assured that his master's life wasn't in any danger and she just needed to rest.
'Very well… I'll be managing your Arcana in the meantime, Master… I can't let it go to waste. I will make it successful, I promise.' The young lady vowed as she headed back to the Cloud Hawk Manor.
Right now, the Second, Third, and Fourth Apprentice of the Grand Arcanist is managing the Arcana made by their master to aid the normal people to feel the presence of mana.
Tranquil Mind.
This is the name of the Arcana made by the Grand Arcanist. Unlike the Inheritance Pill that the Seed Company has developed, the Arcana that the old man has made is actually considered a Mana Artifact with a unique Magic Structure.
The Arcana's appearance is similar to a Jug of water. It has many intricate designs or magic structures embedded on the outside.
It looks like an expensive jug to please the eyes of nobles. However, its outside appearance isn't just what's attractive…
The mystical ability of this Jug is that it can convert the surrounding Mana into magical water… If a cup of it was consumed by normal people, they will be able to start feeling the presence of mana after about an hour!
Right now, about three thousand people have already benefited from this Arcana!
