Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

'I thought he had some sort of special ability… He even told me to surrender.' Vale silently mocked his opponent. He couldn't help but look at Cain disappointedly.

'Haa~'

It seemed that his expectations were a bit too high.

Cain, who was still feeling the pain caused by that last punch, saw Vale offering his hand. As a young man from a prestigious noble family, he felt that it would be fine to accept Vale's sportsmanship. Furthermore, many people are watching him, and dismissing Vale's hand wouldn't look good.

Even if he lost the match, he wanted to look better in front of many people as it would at least save his dignity.

However, as soon as Cain held Vale's hand, the latter decided to use his selected Extraction System…

It wasn't his Auto Extraction where he gets energy points, attributes, or spell lights. As soon as Vale triggered the Spell, he immediately browsed through his Spell Lights!

Well, he still couldn't understand the Spell Models that Cain had since they were different from Dark Spell Models. Nevertheless, he could see how complicated they were, so he simply needed to select the most complicated Spell Model to extract.

[ Extraction Successful. Energy +40 ]

[ Extraction Successful. Strength +0.85 ]

[ Extraction Successful. Agility +0.45 ]

[ Extraction Successful. Complete Spell Light ]

[ Extraction Successful. Complete Wild Whisper Spell Model ]

[ Extraction Successful. Memory Fragment ]

Vale was quite happy with the Wild Whisper Spell, which allowed him to communicate with beasts and animals. The higher the mastery, the higher the level of understanding he would have with them…

However, he was shocked by the last extraction.

'There's a memory fragment? Is it a bonus?' Vale mused as he hadn't tried extracting the young man's memory.

After all, he had only previously extracted memory fragments from the spirits of the dead, and he had no idea how to extract them purposely.

On the other hand, Cain only felt dizzy and slight pain in his chest after completing his Extraction since Vale had been really careful in doing this. His proficiency in this was all thanks to the seventh squad of the Evanescent Vessels.

Cain's knee had then weakened as he almost fumbled to the ground.

However, thanks to Vale's attentiveness, he was able to hold Cain and not let him fall to the ground. It was at this time that the medical practitioners arrived.

It just seemed as if Cain was still feeling the pain from Vale's last attack, so no one suspected that he attacked him once again with his system.

"We will take it from here."

Vale nodded at the physicians as he was also quite busy absorbing Cain's memories.

Vale seemed pretty dazed while walking to the resting area, but people just thought he was contemplating the battle he had just won…

None of them could think that he was already learning about Cain's past…

'It's not as useful as I thought…' Vale thought to himself after a couple of minutes.

The memory fragment didn't contain a very important technique or skill he could benefit from, but it made him aware that Cain knew about the Immortal Shards.

That's right. The memory had given him a clue where he could find more of these Immortal Shards or Formation Nodes, as the Practitioners would like to call them.

'Those Formation Nodes are indeed so expensive… No wonder they're really mad after I turned them all into dust.' Vale silently thought as he recalled his first encounter with the Immortal Shards.

He then shifted his attention to the stage and saw that the students from the Summoning Arts Academy and the Psychic Arts Academy were about to fight…

Avery, representing the Lakrine Academy of Summoning Arts, stood tall with confidence radiating from his body.

Across from him stood Maurice with a staff in his hand, his eyes gleaming with determination. He was also a skilled practitioner from the Farrel Academy of Psychic Arts.

One of them might be Vale's opponent later, so he certainly had to watch this battle.

"Come!" Avery shouted.

Using his grimoire, he summoned a towering Silver-Haired Ape that made the audience gasp.

The massive creature stood by his side, exuding strength and agility. Furthermore, Avery's arsenal also included a variety of spells that could enhance his summon's abilities and boost their combined speed. This might be a tough battle for the Mind Controller.

"Why don't you try attacking me?" Maurice, on the other hand, was well-versed in the intricate arts of the mind.

"Fine!" Avery wasted no time as he commanded the Silver-Haired Ape to fight.

The majestic creature pounded the stage, its silver fur glistening under the spotlight. It looked at Maurice with hostility before charging at him.

Avery also cast spells to strengthen his summon and increase their speed, turning them into a formidable force.

Maurice, relying on his mind spells, attempted to disrupt Avery's strategy with a Misdirection Spell and Confusion Spell.

The Spell obscured the vision of both combatants. It wasn't affecting the surroundings and was targeted to their minds. The blurriness in the surroundings was only in Avery and the Ape's perspective.

However, Avery's connection with his summon made them avoid panicking in the situation as they carefully located Maurice…

"Graaahh!" The Silver-Haired made a deafening roar that made Maurice almost stumble.

Avery and his Silver-Haired Ape moved in perfect harmony. The moment the Ape roared, Avery's Magic Zone sensitivity increased as he located Maurice's location!

The Misdirection and Confusion Spell was now useless!

Maurice had no choice but to adjust his battle style as he wielded his staff to fight while casting Mind Spells…

Unfortunately, Avery and his Ape showcased their agility and power, aiming to overwhelm Maurice with a relentless onslaught.

Maurice couldn't find the right timing to cast his Mind Spells because of their relentless assault!

It was such a bad match for a Mind Controller like him!

The battle raged on, with each combatant displaying their skills and tactics. Avery's summon unleashed devastating blows, while Maurice utilized his Psychic Arts to deflect and evade, relying on his misdirection spells to confuse and disorient his opponent.

Despite Maurice's best efforts, Avery's summon proved to be relentless. The last body slam of the Silver-Haired Ape incapacitated Maurice, leaving him unable to continue the fight.
