Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
chapter-704

Vale considered for a few seconds as he wasn't sure how to respond.

After a few moments, Vale answered, and his voice was confident and warm.

"I am Vale. You are in my castle. This is the Mausoleum, where you have been sleeping for a long time. I have awakened you, and freed you from your seal. I am your savior… and your master." Vale said as he decided to be bold and cast the Slave Mark on the Immortal!

As Vale said this, he decided to be bold and cast the Slave Mark on the Immortal!

It was a spell that could bind the will of another being to his own. It was a spell that could make the Immortal his slave.

Just from how the Immortal behaved and how he had spoken to him, Vale could tell that there would be many problems if he let him be.

Furthermore, the current state of the Immortal was incredibly weakened.

The Divinity and the mutated Spell Models in their bodies weren't in their perfect shape as of yet. It was the perfect time to do this… If he decided to postpone this, the Immortal may recover his strength!

'I can do this… Although the Immortal is emitting a very powerful presence and ancient aura, it's only for intimidation. It lacks substance.' Vale thought after using his Dragon's True Sight to observe the flow of the Immortal's Energy.

Considering all this, Vale was eager to enslave the Immortal.

He wanted to have his power and his secrets. He wanted to have the loyalty and obedience of a True Immortal or a Celestial that was worshipped by many.

He knew that it would be an outstanding achievement and wanted to have him.

'If you didn't sound scary, I will not do this… You have to blame yourself.' Vale thought.

Nonetheless, he knew that this wouldn't be easy.

The Immortal was not a weak or foolish being. He was a powerful and ancient being. Furthermore, he had a strong and independent will. He would not submit easily.

"Mhmm? You want to control me?" The Immortal spoke to Vale through Telepathy.

"I think you're dangerous, so you must be controlled to a certain degree… And this era doesn't need a True Immortal like yourself." Vale said, but he didn't even fully agree with what he said.

However, it was enough to make the Immortal rethink his actions…

"If you think that I'm a dangerous being for this era. Then you must do your best to succeed, or I am the one who's going to enslave you." The Immortal also spoke before he suddenly tried casting an enslavement spell on Vale!

Vale frowned as he realized that the Immortal decided to counterattack instead of focusing on his defense!

'Are you underestimating my mental energy?' Vale thought as the two of them battled with their wills!

They didn't fight physically, but mentally!

While they were standing there, staring at each other, the two Immortals clashed with their minds, their souls, and their essences!

There wasn't any chaotic energy or pulse of energy that could destroy the surroundings, but within their minds, they fought for control, freedom, and dominance.

"Mhmm… You have a very strong mental energy for a new Immortal. I can tell that it hasn't been a hundred years since you ascended to this.

It was a fierce and intense battle, but it was also a silent and invisible battle.

However, of all the battles that Vale has fought, this was the most dangerous and risky battle.

'Tsk… This is getting too tough. I guess this is only expected for Celestials.'

Vale felt the Immortal's will resisting his Spell.

The two of them possessed a different type of mental energy. The Immortal's mental energy was closely related to their Divinity, while normal Arcanist's mental energy was cultivated by simply their minds.

Because of that, Vale could easily tell that the difficulty of this match was on the highest scale.

"Don't get too distracted…" The Immortal spoke to his mind.

"You—"

Vale then felt the Immortal's will trying to break his mental defense. He also felt the Immortal's Will challenge his Slave Mark Spell.

"I'm going to reflect your enslavement spell. Try to fight against two enslavement spells." The Immortal declared as if he was truly capable of returning his Spell to him!

Vale frowned at this as he realized that the Immortal was playing mind games on him. He felt the Immortal's will probing his mind.

Then, to Vale's surprise, he felt the Immortal's Will attempting to search his memories.

Vale didn't know how it was happening or how he could tell what the Immortal was doing, but he had to stop this from happening.

As he felt the Immortal's will seizing to learn his secrets, Vale felt a surge of fear and anger.

There was simply no way he wanted the Immortal to know his secrets.

His Divine Extraction System wasn't something that an Immortal should find out. He also didn't want the Immortal to see any of his weaknesses or let him exploit his flaws.

"You're going too far!"

'You think you can cast so many spells while dealing with my Slave Mark Spell? I feel underestimated… And that's perfect!'

Vale's plan was perfect, as soon as the Immortal multitasked and didn't focus on breaking his Slave Mark Spell, he strengthened his will and pushed back.

He blocked the Immortal's Will from his mind.

It happened so quickly and felt a wave of pain as well since the Immortal's Will was still filled with power.

However, Vale didn't stop there, he finally decided to use his Divine Extraction System! There was no way he wouldn't use this!

This was the reason why he was confident in winning this mind battle!

While his Slave Mark Spell was trying to take over his mind, Vale started with his Extraction.

[ Living Immortal has been discovered. Would you like to start the extraction? ]

"Yes!"

'Meteor Smmon? Not bad… This is a good Spell and will work perfectly with Pearl's Starfall.' Vale mused as he recalled Pearl's impressive Starfall Spell. To be honest, he actually envied Pearl a little when he saw her summoning those meteors in the sky!

However, now that he had this Spell, he could finally forget about his slight bitterness.

"What?! What are you doing?! Draining Magic? You're a Demon?!" The Immortal was obviously shocked as he realized that he was being drained by the mysterious Immortal in front of him.

This wasn't something that he had expected. Perhaps, if he was in his peak condition, he would've noticed his actions before it was too late!

"A Demon? Don't panic… My Slave Mark Spell Model is still active." Vale replied with a grin on his face. He actually wanted to use some of the Demon Saint's spell to surprise this Immortal. After all he extracted quite a few Demon Saint's Spells from previous battles like the Demon Eyes, Abyssal Fire, Demon's Wrath, Corruption Curse, and some others.

However, he decided against it since Immortal doesn't seem to be giving up yet…

Then, the Immortal's eyes widened and at the same time, Vale felt the Immortal's will struggling in his Slave Mark Spell.

Slowly, he felt the Immortal's will suffering in his Spell…

As he continued with his Extraction, he felt the Immortal's Will yielding in his Slave Mark Spell.

"I will take care of you. You can have a rest now…" As he said this, the Immortal was still not giving up and trying to muster some of his remaining Divinity.

However, Vale simply smiled and spoke softly.

"You are mine, Immortal. From now on, you will obey my words." As Vale said this, he cast another Slave Mark Spell!

'It's over...'

He saw the Immortal's eyes widen in horror and despair.

Slowly, he saw the Immortal's eyes turned blank, even more lifeless than before... The Immortal's eyes had just become dull and empty.

Vale had won.

He had enslaved the Immortal successfully!

Vale felt a burst of joy and pride as he knew that no one else had a slave Immortal aside from him!

He felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Furthermore, he would learn plenty of things from this Immortal, so he felt a thrill of excitement and curiosity.

'Now... I should continue with the others.'
