Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 877: Under Protection



Chapter 877: Under Protection



"Well done, Somnus," Vale said in a whisper. "You can return now..."

"Yes... Master..."

The spirit replied before he bowed and dissolved into mist, flowing back into the pages of the Black Grimoire.

Vale closed the book and tucked it away...

At this time, his mind was already racing with the next steps. He had captured Wasa, but he felt that Wasa was still able to release a fluctuation of energy that he believed to be the telepathic warning, which meant that the other Time Manipulators would be on high alert. He had actually cast his Shadow Domain as well to ensure that the people didn't know what was going on and also to stop the Time Manipulator's attempt to ask for reinforcement. However, his Shadow Domain doesn't seem to be capable of black time-related Spells just yet.

Anyway, Vale knew he had to act quickly.

'Should I just kill him then?' Vale considered since he knew that Wasa was able to warn the other Time Manipulators...

However, as he tried to feel his Divine Sense Mark, he realized that the three others were still active!

To be exact, they didn't escape to a different realm!

After considering for a while, he decided just to carry the man and bring him back to the castle with his ability to control Space.

With Wasa in his grasp, he could extract more information about the Talismans that made him curious...

As he lifted Wasa's limp form, Vale opened a portal using arrived at Denise's place... As soon as he appeared, Denise was a bit shocked, but seeing it was Vale, she immediately calmed down and ordered her Apex Guardian to stop what it was doing.

"Ahem... I ordered the android to protect me..." She said with a helpless smile on her face.

Vale awkwardly laughed since it was his fault. "Sorry about that, I'm a bit in a hurry. Please take care of this person for now. You have the Death God's Android with you anyway so you can suppress him even if he wakes up."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Ugh... I'm not sure about that..." Denise replied.

"I just informed Lisa that this person is here... She'll help just in case. But don't worry, I already placed a few restrictions on his body. I just need to know more about his Talisman Skills." Vale said as he handed over the three Talismans to Denise in case she wanted to study it.

"Mhmm... This is quite interesting. However, Faith is looking for you. Did you meet her already? I'm sure you still have plans to rebuild the Academy, right?" Denise said as she took the Talisman.

Vale recalled his promise and nodded.

"Thanks for reminding me... Don't worry, Once the problem with the other Churches and the Time Manipulators is settled, I'll deal with Academy matters... I also wish to resolve this matter."

"Well... You have to do it faster... I think that someone's trying to manipulate the continent once again." Denise said.

Vale was surprised after hearing this as he felt suddenly confused.

"You may not have heard it, but in the past few days, there's been a rumor that there's a potion or pill or something that can help ordinary people become Arcanists. Based on the rumor, it would only take ten years before making everyone in the world an Arcanist." Denise said casually while flipping through the Talisman.

This news was actually a bit shocking and Shane couldn't help but feel curious about where this rumor came from.

"I'll look into it..." Vale replied and thanked Denise before leaving her laboratory.

He still had to deal with other Time Manipulators-Liora, Cyper, and Elysia.

***

With the help of Somnus, the Spirit of Eternal Slumber, he devised a plan to capture each one. Liora had infiltrated one of the Arcane Bureau's branches, posing as a diligent researcher. Vale observed her from a distance, noting her meticulous nature, and indeed, it seemed that although she got the warning from Wasa, she still felt somehow safe in her disguise... 'Weird... Is she relying on something?' Vale couldn't help but feel a bit confused with her confidence. However, he also knew to himself that the Divine Sense Mark was real. It wasn't cloned or used to bait him.

In any case, he waited until she was alone in the archives, surrounded by various documents... Summoning Somnus, Vale directed the spirit to target Liora.

Soon, Liora felt an overwhelming drowsiness. She tried to resist, but Somnus' power was too strong. It seemed that she wasn't as strong as Wasa...

Soon, her eyelids drooped, and she slumped over her desk, fast asleep.

Vale moved swiftly, securing her and ensuring she couldn't escape.

At this point, he finally realized what was going on...

"She's actually protected by another Immortal." Vale muttered in interest as he felt a weak Divinity on Liora's body.

It wasn't in Wasa's body, so he felt a bit confused. Nonetheless, if the other members were protected by this Divinity, then this Immortal must've realized that their Divinity had been compromised in Liora's body...

Nonetheless, Vale wasn't too worried as he decided to continue his hunt after sending Liora's body to Denise's Laboratory.

Next, Vale set his sights on Cyper, who had infiltrated the Order of the Lore Hunters of the Elemental Arts Faction. Cyper seemed to be in a hurry and left the Hall of the Lore Hunters...

Vale then watched as Cyper asked for protection from a few powerful Lore Hunters. To be exact, they were at the Expert Level Arcanist!

'Ohhh... Did he trade something to the Lore Hunters? Why is he being protected by these people?' Vale was curious.

However, he would know all about this later, so when the opportunity arose, Vale summoned Somnus once more. The spirit approached Cyper, and just like before, its presence was barely

perceptible.

Cyper felt the familiar pull of sleep, but this time, he was able to himself thanks to the two Expert Arcanists!

"Sir Immortal, who had been offended by our guest. Please calm your anger..." One of them

said to the air as they couldn't find Vale's figure.

"We are under the protection of Lord Aersus..."
