Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 96 Try



'So it was like that…' Vale nodded solemnly as he finally realized what the side effect of overextending Phantasm State was!

Denise had mentioned to him about this side effect before and he also read this in the book.

However, it wasn't mentioned specifically what side effect it was. He only knows that it's certainly not good for the Practitioner of the Darkness Arcane Path.

He didn't expect that the side effects would be too severe if he ignored the limits of his body.

'Internal injuries can still be cured by the current level of Alchemy according to the books I've read. However, being possessed by an Evil Spirit isn't something a mere student like us can deal with.' Vale thought as he couldn't help but recall the Evanescent Vessels of the Dark Arts Faction.

Based on what he knows, the Vessels are extremely powerful because they allow "something" to possess their bodies. Not even the Untainted Sentinels of the Holy Arts Faction or the Lore Hunters of the Elemental Arts Faction can deal with them if they became a "vessel".

This was according to his Master.

Perhaps, only those at their levels can actually resist the power of the Evil Spirit…

"Now, is everyone interested in this amulet? I will be able to provide as many as needed as long as you reach the requirement I'm asking for. Before the end of this class, you should step on this platform and show us how you shrink your Magic Zone by a meter."

"Yes, Professor!"

"We will do our best."

The students answered with enthusiasm as they immediately gathered at the assistants brought by the Professor. These assistants have been waiting for them to teach them how it was done and the tricks they used to do it.

"Very well, we still have over an hour to do this so take your time." Professor Charlotte said with a smile.

Their class is from 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM. Since only 15 minutes had passed, they should have had a decent amount of time to learn the basics. As for being able to act on it, that would be hard to tell.

As Professor Charlotte allowed her assistants to teach the students, she sat on the stone platform and watched everyone.

Her Phantasm State remained active as she observes everyone's bodies.

She's not using a specific technique to scan the bodies of her student. It was a simple benefit of having a strong Magic Zone. It allows her to observe anything that is inside her zone…

"Hmmm?" Suddenly she noticed that she was unable to properly inspect three of her students.

It was Lisa, Vale, and Dalton…

She knows Lisa since she's one of the five marked students by the Headmaster among the first-year students. This kid was quite special since she consumed the Darkness Possession Potion almost without any side effects. It was very compatible with her and it feels like she may even survive the potion even if she consumed it when she was six years old. Anyway, as Professor, she knows that it wasn't as simple as that but the Headmaster didn't say anything more than that.

As for Vale, she knows that he's very special since he has 25 Spirit Strands which is unheard of in all the 13 or 14 years old in all Arcane Paths. She even thought that Vale should be one of the marked students but surprisingly, the Headmaster only smiled teasingly when she suggested it to him.

Lastly, Dalton Stranway who seems very ordinary in terms of looks, only knows that the Stranway family was previously a prestigious family until the king was replaced by the current ruler.

'I wonder what's special among these kids… Not even my Magic Zone can see through their Darkness Energy. Is it an artifact? Are they using a defensive Dark Spell right now? Ahhh… perhaps it's their physique?'

Professor Charlotte's eyes lit up after reaching this thought.

A special physique is something very special and needed to be studied carefully. After all, they didn't have many volunteers with special physiques so their knowledge about it is extremely limited.

'If Lesley is still here, she'll definitely take interest in them if I tell her about this… Unfortunately, she already left. I wonder when she'll visit me.'

Vale didn't know that Charlotte was already having some dangerous thoughts. If he knows what she's thinking, he'll probably try his best to get out of the Academy.

Time quickly passed and after 15 minutes, everyone already knows what they should do in order to shrink their Magic Zone.

They have about an hour to complete their task for today and receive the mystical amulet that only the Vermont Clan can create.

About 10 minutes before the class is over, Professor Charlotte came forward and spoke with her gentle voice.

"Alright, is there any volunteer? The platform is ready. You can just step up and try it. To start with it, show us the original size of your Magic Zone. Then, in my command, you have to shrink it by a meter in less than 30 seconds…"

After saying this, she looked at everyone only to realize that no one except Vale was looking at her.

All of them are either looking at the ground or still focusing on their task.

Well, she expected such a reaction since she knows that they have failed. The task she has provided is quite impossible to accomplish in just an hour… Although she already limited it to a meter size, it's still difficult. After all, she knows that the duration of their Phantasm State isn't that long in the first place.

It means that they won't have enough time to practice controlling their Magic Zone.

Furthermore, during their first time learning their magic zone, they would be more inclined to play around with their Dark Spells instead of their magic zone itself.

In short, she knows that she can save this amulet worth 80,000 zen today.

Thump…

"Eh?" Professor Charlotte looked at Vale incredulously after seeing him step forward.

"A-are you going to try it?" She had a sudden bad premonition after seeing this student confidently walk at the stone platform.
