Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

838  Extractor

As the Angels dashed forward without any words, the Avatar of Vale moved forward to meet them.

”Iʼll take care of them… Reserve your energy for the other Towers.” The Avatar said. After all, he felt that the Angelʼs power was a bad match for Chad and the others.

It was better to conserve their strength and allow him to take care of this matter.

Ever since he became immortal, he was always in the special state that allowed him to use any of his spells. There was no need to worry about the cooldown of this state at all.

As they neared, Vale considered the Spells he had to use to quickly suppress the Angels. Knowing that time was of the essence in their mission to uncover the mysteries of the Prisoner Towers and the Perfect Vessels, he needed this to be quick.

Vale immediately planned the set of Spell he could use to defeat the Angels. Soon, Vale started with his new favorite Spell called Supremacy Surge from Pride…

This Spell channeled its potent energies to infuse his body with a surge of Divinity and strength.

As his form became immersed with a radiant aura of raw power, he intimidated the Angels for a brief moment! That was more than enough as he continued using his other Spells!

Vale closed his eyes for a second, and as he opened them again, he unleashed the devastating power of Doom Gaze!

Against weaker Arcanists, this Spell could immediately kill its target. However, against the Angel, it was only more than enough to trap the Angels within its paralyzing grasp.

As the ethereal energies of the Spell coursed through the area in front of Vale, the Angels found themselves momentarily stunned and disoriented, their movements faltering as they struggled to break free from its hypnotic hold.

”I guess you guys have weakened a lot after being here for so long…” Vale muttered as he felt that being able to stop six Angels was truly incredible.

Anyway, Vale didnʼt think too much of the partial success of his plan… Vale could tell that these angels still had some strength, and they were trying to hide.

ʼRight… They can use their life force to cast Forbidden Arts… I need to finish this battle before they can use it.ʼ Vale thought.

Once again, Vale decided to his Celestial Art. This time, he invoked the Mind Break Spell, seeking to break or cause damage to Angelsʼ consciousness and render them vulnerable to his will.

Yet, to his dismay, the Angels proved resilient against the mind-altering effects of his Spell, their celestial essences shielded by a barrier of divine fortitude stopped any attempts to breach their defenses.

ʼThatʼs unexpected…ʼ Vale wryly smiled as Mind Break rarely failed him.

Nonetheless, he wasnʼt too disappointed by this setback. Vale swiftly changed to a new tactic and released the searing flames of Abyssal Fire to push back the Angels and create a temporary respite…

Boom!

The Abyssal Fire was huge, and it seemed to have scared the Angels! They had no idea whether their opponent was a Demon or not!

As the chamber blazed with the Abyssal, Valeʼs Avatar hesitated for a moment before he decided to use the Eclipse of Oblivion, a spell that he had stolen from the Death God before.

Vale had only used this Spell once before, during his practice session against Aurion.

Whoosh~

The dark energies from the Spell started surging forth to envelop them in a shroud of oblivion that aimed to suppress their Celestial Essence!

No matter what, the Angel Race was still considered Celestial Beings but of a lower grade according to Aurion and the other True Immortals.

Just like that, a blinding flash of light and shadow consumed the whole tower…

Vale had to use about 300 Divinity Points to cast that, but he wasnʼt too worried since he had tens of thousands right now.

As everyone opened their eyes, they soon saw the six Angels subdued at last…

”Very well done, Sir Immortal…” Odessa commented after seeing the six Angels on the ground. They were all still alive, but there was no way they could continue to fight.

”That was a lot faster than I expected… Hmm… Do you think I have some of their blood?” Chad asked as his Dragon Blood suddenly pulsed, seeing the defenseless Angels.

He didnʼt know for sure, but it seemed that the Dragon Race liked to eat Angels.

Vale smiled at this as he didnʼt mind if Chad would only ask for their blood. It must be beneficial for him.

Soon, he used his Dominion Thirst on them, and just like the Asura, he gained their loyalty.

After subduing them and the Angels finishing their oath of loyalty, Vale decided to interrogate them as well.

”Who are you, and why have you been imprisoned within this Prison Tower?” He asked while observing their features. Without a doubt, they were definitely similar to the Messenger he had met before when he tried summoning Lotus before.

One of the Angels, who still had a gentle radiance on his wings spoke as their representative. ”We do not have names… We are merely the Keepers of Light, the Guardians of the Celestial Realms…” He began.

He even seemed to be recalling the past as he speaks.

”Long ago, we were tasked with safeguarding the balance of this realm and guiding mortals on their path to enlightenment.”

As the tale of their past unfolded, Vale listened with rapt attention… He wasnʼt sure if this past was important or not, but knowing more would surely benefit him.

Anyway, the Angels spoke of a time when the realms of mortals and immortals were intertwined… At this point, it appears that the mortals werenʼt Practitioners yet.

Yet, as the eons passed and the tides of fate shifted, a rift began to form between the realms of man and god…

I didnʼt take long before the Human Immortals emerged, driven by greed and ambition, they used their knowledge to go through other realms to seek help and eliminate the original Celestial Race and replace them…

Vale didnʼt think too much of this past since it didnʼt matter to him. It was just nice to know, as he could probably add this to the history once he rebuilt the Academy.

However, the Angel soon revealed something he didnʼt expect…

It was related to the Divine Extractor!
