Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 648 Against the Sage

The Sage was confused after hearing Chadʼs words, but he remained silent.

He could tell that Chad didnʼt have plans to cooperate with him after seeing that gaze.

Nevertheless, he expected this to happen. There was no way everything would go smoothly, especially if he was trying to meet the Dragonʼs Summoner.

”Sage Merlin, tell me the reason why you want to meet the owner of the Dragon... You have to be honest with me.” Chad asked as his eyes suddenly turned strange. It transformed in a manner similar to that of a dragon!

Furthermore, Sage Merlin could finally feel some traces of Dragonʼs Aura from the young man before him.

ʼIs he using the power of the Dragon Scales? No—He mustʼve mutated through the Dragonʼs Blood!ʼ Sage Merlin immediately guessed. However, he wasnʼt too sure since this could just be a temporary effect of a Mystic Arts Spell or an Artifact.

”Then I will be honest with you… I want to meet the Summoner, as he might be someone I know… And if Iʼm right, I must send him to a different Realm.” Sage Merlin replied.

”I donʼt think that you know of him… I just received a reply from my Communication Crystal.” Chad said as he kept the Crystal in his pocket. It seemed that he had informed Vale about the situation even before getting out of the castle!

Sage Merlin sighed after hearing this.

”Itʼs not that I know his name… In any case, you will bring me to him no matter what…” Sage Merlin said as his voice seemed to echo in Chadʼs head.

However, it only happened in a fleeting moment, and Chad immediately woke up from his stupor... He swiftly jumped back and raised his defense.

”Mind Controller?” Chad asked.

”Mhmm… Youʼre not affected… Is that because of the Dragonʼs Blood? How interesting… If you have more of them, you should give them as a gift to my disciples. The world will benefit more if we have those resources.” Sage Merline muttered.

Of course, this time, Chad was convinced that this old man was crazy and greedy.

There was no point talking to him anymore!

Chad decided to end the conversation and to start the fight.

Even without using his Dragon Blessed Eyes, he knew that Sage Merlin was a powerful and dangerous enemy. He had to be careful but decisive in his actions!

He also knew that he had an advantage and a few surprising Spells, so he had to use them well to win this battle.

Although it hadnʼt been long since he received the blessing of the Dragons, he was still accepted as a Dragon Disciple by Orden and Ryzoir!

ʼI can do this!ʼ Chad encouraged himself, as this was the first time heʼd be fighting someone for real after he was saved by Vale and the others from Magnus.

He was confident that as long as the Sage didnʼt go all out immediately, he could win this one!

He then activated one of his Spells and released his own Dragonʼs Aura.

As he did this, he felt a surge of power and vitality, and there was a slight change in his appearance. His eyes turned red, and his hair turned silver.

He didnʼt grow scales and claws or sprouted wings… However, his Aura certainly showed signs of similarity with Dragons!

He looked like a human with a dragonʼs spirit, and he radiated a majestic and fearsome aura!

Sage Merlin was shocked. Although he was already hundreds of years old, it was still rare to see a human blessed by a Dragon!

”A Dragonʼs Disciple?” Sage Merlin asked as he looked at Chadʼs transformation

Chad didnʼt answer and simply waved his hand to attack with a spell similar to the Wind Blade… However, it was in the form of a Dragonʼs Claw!

Boom!

The attack was so sudden but the Sage didnʼt even flinch.

”Thatʼs weaker than I expected… I knew it, you donʼt deserve the Dragon at all…”

Sage Merline muttered as he continued to feel greedy about this opportunity.

”It doesnʼt matter. I will be taking that Dragon... If that Summoner is really an Immortal, Iʼll just throw him to another Realm.” Sage Merlin said as he didnʼt feel afraid even if he had to face a True Immortal while being only a Half-Immortal.

The reason was obvious, he had a complete Immortal Item that would help him fight an Immortal!

With this in mind, he raised his staff, and pointed it at Chad, who seemed to be collecting some energy in the surroundings.

”I will give you one more chance… Choose wisely, young man. Will you cooperate with me, and bring me to the owner of the Dragon? Or will you resist me, and face my wrath? The choice is yours, and you have to make it now.” Sage Merlin said as ominous energy started gathering at the tip of his staff.

He then calmly looked at Chad, and waited for his answer.

However, after a few moments, Chad shook his head and replied.

”I canʼt do that”

Then, he rushed towards Sage Merlin, and attacked him!

Sage Merlin was only briefly surprised since he thought that Chad would continue fighting from a distance.

”Donʼt interfere...” He said to his disciples after noticing that they were about to help.

He then activated his staff and summoned a huge black icicle to pierce Chadʼs body!

However, Chad simply used a technique similar to a Dragonʼs Breath, and spewed fire at Sage Merlin!

Boom!

The icicle and the fire spell clashed! However, Chad didnʼt stop!

He followed it up with a Dragonʼs Roar and stunned Sage Merlin with sound.

He used the Ghost Claw Spell imbued with Dragonʼs Aura and slashed Sage Merlin!

On the other hand, Sage Merlin used several Ice Spells to stop Chadʼs onslaught after being briefly stunned by the Dragonʼs roar.

As soon as the Ghost Claw was about to reach him, he used his Lightning Bolt Spell, and shot electricity at Chad.

Bzzt!

Chadʼs Dragon Aura protected him from the electricity, but as the Sage used his Thunder Clap, Chad was momentarily dizzied...

Thankfully, Chad still has the Cape with him. It was the Sovereign Artifact gifted to him by Vale!
