Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
chapter-124

"Haaa!"

Vale's eyes suddenly opened as he looked around and realized that he was still in his bed.

He was sweating profusely as many thoughts came into his head as he recalled being seen by his classmates sitting down with three naked female corpses.

It was such a terrible memory.

"Thankfully… Whew… It's all just a dream… Just a dream." Vale muttered to himself to calm down.

He then swiftly checked his system and confirmed that there is nothing wrong with it. He was able to see his attributes unlike in his dream.

Everything just felt so real as his heart was still beating crazily. He then carefully checked his body and confirmed that he didn't wet himself on his bed.

"What the heck was that? Why did I even dream of it? Ugh… That is so scary…" Vale sighed as he slumped on his bed to calm his raging heart.

After a while, he checked his pocketwatch placed on the lamp table near his bed.

After confirming that it was only five in the morning, Vale relaxed for a moment.

He then went to the washroom to clean himself to leave early. He wanted to have an early breakfast…

However, as he got outside, Vale's heart thumped loudly as he heard the headmaster's voice…

He was being called to the Headmaster's Office!

Vale's eyes went wide as he unconsciously stepped back thinking of running away and ignoring his call.

However, the Headmaster's magic zone can definitely reach him and could tell what he was doing. He has no way of escaping so he can only visit the Headmaster.

"What a coincidence… I also dreamt of being called by the Headmaster… That's weird." Vale's steps suddenly halted as he looked at the hallway leading to the office.

For some reason, the dream he just saw felt like a prophecy as he passes the custodian sweeping on the floor.

This doesn't feel good at all.

As he looked at the door of the Headmaster's Office, Vale silently prayed that he won't see three naked female corpses inside waiting for his presence.

As soon as he heard the Headmaster's signal to enter, Vale nervously twisted the doorknob and pushed it open.

'No way…' Vale wasn't able to enter the room as he saw a cadaver bag inside the room.

It may be different from the dream he had but the fact that there is still a corpse inside this room made him nervous.

Headmaster Jean noticed Vale's behavior and smiled at him knowingly.

It was as if he could read his mind. However, based on his dream, this Headmaster had a complete misunderstanding of his "hobbies."

After the door closed, Headmaster Jean started speaking.

"You're already shaking with excitement. Heinz is indeed right… It's been a while since you've seen a corpse so I'm sure that you'll like my gift. This corpse is quite special. She's from the Holy Arts Faction and part of the Untainted Sentinels. Among all the corpses we've collected, she's the only one with an intact body since my niece was the one who dealt with her."

Vale jolted at the sudden explanation.

He understood that this corpse isn't easy to go by so it will be very rude to reject this present.

As he heard the latter part of his words, he couldn't help but imagine Lesley's cold beauty… However, the Headmaster might have another niece so he decided to ask.

"Headmaster, I heard from Master Heinz that Lesley was your niece… Was it her who killed this lady?"

"You're right… She had only recently graduated but she was already capable of dealing with a 5-year member of the Holy Arts Faction's Order. Isn't she amazing?"

"R-right… She's exceptional, Headmaster…"

"Yes… You can take this corpse back to your room but I'll have to take it back later this evening. The seal on her body would only last 15 hours and after that, an evil spirit might possess her." Headmaster Jean explained.

"B-but… I don't think it's appropriate, let me just inspect the body for a few seconds. Besides, I can't carry this corpse back to my room without being noticed by people" Vale replied as he steps forward to start his extraction.

"Haha… Do you think I didn't know that you've become a blessed of the Spirit World? You can simply ask your Dark Spirit to carry the corpse for you. It can hide the corpse inside your body…"

Vale was stunned as soon as he heard these words. He had never heard anything about it. Even Professor Stella didn't mention it to him.

"Is that true, Headmaster?" Vale asked.

"Yes, don't be shy and communicate with your Dark Spirit now. Take your time. Right, since this is the first, it might take a few minutes so I'll leave to take care of something. I'll be quick."

"Yes, Headmaster." Vale replied as he started speaking to the Dark Spirit hiding in his shadow…

However, a sudden realization came into his mind. In his dream, the Headmaster left as well and he was exposed to his classmates doing something with a female corpse.

'Hurry up!' Vale commanded the Dark Spirit since he felt that the dream might come true but in a different way like how he should be presented with three corpses but has only been presented by a single corpse.

The Dark Spirit understood his thoughts as it immediately came out of his shadow and surrounded the cadaver…

Vale then heard the Dark Spirit complain about the bag. Apparently, the bag can't be brought into his shadow.

It seems to be a Mystical Item that has a natural counter against the Spirit's storing ability.

With this in mind, Vale opened the cadaver bag to reveal the beautiful female corpse.

"As expected of the Holy Arts Faction… They look sacred even if they're already dead." Vale muttered as he touched the cold body.

As soon as he did this, his system was triggered.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]
