Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
chapter-272

"Hmm… I didn't think that Neil had this Spell with him." Vale sighed as he didn't expect such a massive gain from his classmate.

Honestly, he wasn't expecting much in extraction with Neil. After all, the man doesn't even have half of his attributes, and furthermore, he only has five filled Spell Lights in his body.

With such pitiful attributes and a small collection of spells, Vale would already be happy if Neil got weakened and could not attend the class that would soon start.

"Moonlight Curse… This is supposed to be a rare Dark Spell. If I'm not mistaken, it can only be bought using contribution points. I wonder how he got this Spell…" Vale softly muttered as he looked at the new Spell Model in his body.

He didn't get any Spell Light from Neil, so this Spell Model occupied one of Vale's Spell Lights. Nevertheless, Vale didn't mind it since he still had 7 Spell Lights available.

'Should I try using this?' Vale thought, but he immediately shook his head after recalling the effect of the curse.

The Moonlight Curse was only effective against living beings basking in the Moonlight. Even if he went to the Training Hall, he could only try it on dummy targets, and the effect wouldn't be visible.

'Whatever… I know this Spell will be useful.' Vale thought as he gave up practicing the Spell in the Training Hall and headed to the Headmaster's office.

Although this Curse Spell was situational and couldn't be used at a specific time of the day, Vale would still choose this over other common Curse Spells. After all, he already had other 'basic' Spells he could use at any time.

He knows that this Situational Curse Spell's effect would be more potent than other common Curses even if he decided not to increase its mastery.

Lastly, with his current set of spells and attributes, Vale already has the confidence to get his missing shadow piece back in his fourth year.

It might sound arrogant, but this was something he was confident in considering the skills of the Fourth-Year Students that he had seen in the Academy and Fifth-Year Students of the Raksmiths Academy. This includes the Seventh-Year Brylle Genio, who also failed to defeat him before.

As he reached this thought, Vale couldn't help but daydream…

Once he claimed his Shadow back, he'd really disappear from the Academy, and perhaps, he should start planning what he should do once he left.

Vale shook his head after reaching this random thought.

'I can't be complacent… My knowledge about the other Arcane Paths is still terrible. I have to learn more about them.' Vale reminded himself.

He was also feeling a bit complicated with his plan to escape since there was also a subject he wanted to learn that was only available in the higher year.

'Can I learn those with only self-study?' Vale sighed.

He was referring to the Spell Fusion Class that would start in his eighth year in Academy. It would start as a Basic Spell Fusion class, followed by the Intermediate Spell Fusion class in the ninth year, and the Advanced Spell Fusion Class in the tenth year.

It feels like a waste if he can't learn that after escaping.

There were also other interesting universal classes he wanted to attend. These are subjects that need to be learned by all Dark Arts Students, no matter what Specialization they took in their fourth year. Some of them are the Temporal Blood Magic Class in the seventh year, Arcane Talisman Crafting in the Fifth Year, and others.

"Vale, you look like you're troubled. You're not thinking of saving Philip from the Secret Organization, right?" Headmaster Jean's voice suddenly startled Vale, who was thinking too deeply about his future plans.

"Ahem… Headmaster, please don't just use your Telepathy. At least inform me about it first. You can just nudge me with a bit of your energy to let me know." Vale said as he calmed his breathing. He was already near the Headmaster's office, so he couldn't believe that this old man would use his Telepathy instead of just waiting for him.

"Oh… That was a quick reply. Did you reach late-stage Elementary Realm in your Telepathy Spell?" Headmaster Jean asked.

'It's already in the Advanced Realm…' Vale answered in his mind.

Of course, he had no plans to inform the Headmaster about it since it was unnecessary.

"Headmaster, my mastery isn't important. I came here to ask about Philip's situation… I'm worried about him." Vale said as he changed the topic.

"Hmph… Worried? You just did something funny in the Library…" Headmaster Jean said with a chuckle as he removed his Telepathy Spell. Furthermore, when Vale tries to use his Telepathy, he fails to connect to the Headmaster.

'Is he using a Spell or a Mystical Item to stop me?' Vale mused. He felt that this ability to stop someone from using Telepathy on him was pretty helpful.

As for the Headmaster learning about what he did in the Library, he wasn't too surprised. After all, this person has his Shadow and could easily spy on him. He was already happy that his Shadow wouldn't let the Headmaster know about his current Spell Lights and Attributes.

Soon, he arrived at the Headmaster's Office as he wanted to discuss Philip's situation.

"Why do you want to know? Did Priscilla tell you something?" Headmaster Jean asked as he leaned comfortably on his chair.

Vale stepped closer to the Headmaster and sat on the chair in front of the latter's desk.

"She didn't tell me anything… That's why I want to help. Perhaps she'll tell me about it if I manage to save her only brother." Vale answered as he looked at the Headmaster calmly and seriously.
