Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy-Novel

The moon hung high over the Vampire's Tower, casting a pale light that seemed to strengthen Lisa for the battle ahead.

She knew the odds were against her since she was facing three TManipulators. However, at this time, surrender was not an option, and it wasn't in her nature to give up either.. With the Red Bruiser gloves adorning her hands, she prepared to unleash the full extent of her vampiric prowess.

"Don't waste your time, Vampire… You're nothing against us. Just answer our questions and you'll get a painless death." Jin said as he saw the gorgeous Vampire looking at them with a chilly gaze

The TManipulators, Jin, Giorgi, and Darius, stood ready, their own energies harmonizing with the ebb and flow of time.

If the Vampire would even try to do something, they would unhesitatingly activate their Spells.

They know for a fact that they were a formidable trio. No one would be able to escape if the three of them worked together. Nonetheless, they rarely faced a vampire of Lisa's caliber.

They had to be careful since once the Vampire was given a chance to escape, finding them would becextremely difficult with their incredible blood spells.

"As if…" Lisa muttered as she decided to immediately attack!

The battle commenced with Lisa activating her Crushing Grasp of the Red Bruiser aiming to immobilize Jin, the one she could recognize as the leader of the group..

Crack… Crack… Crack…

Space around him seemed to stutter, but Jin, with his mastery over time, broke free from the stasis with a burst of chronal energy.

'What this?'

Lisa's eyes narrowed as she couldn't recognize what kind of power was used.

Nonetheless, she knew she would have to employ her other abilities if she wanted to get a clean hit to one of them.

Kkaaaaaahhhh~

She called upon her Blood Echo, sending a shockwave of vampiric energy cascading towards the trio.

"That's futile!"

Giorgi deflected it with a swing of his blade, the temporal energy creating a shield that absorbed the life-draining force.

Darius countered with a temporal distortion, attempting to age Lisa rapidly, but she was immune to such tricks of time!

"Mhmm? I didn't know that Vampires weren't affected by that." Darius muttered.

"You still have a lot to learn… It's not that she's not affected. You're just too weak right now." Jin explained as he immediately realized what had happened.

The Vampire seemed to be protected by a powerful energy that was most likely a Divinity of someone else. However, he couldn't exactly understand this since he doesn't have Divinity himself.

Anyway, they had no tto discuss this matter as they slowly fought against the Vampire to see more of her abilities.

After all, once they obtained a good grasp of her abilities, they would have an idea of how valuable her fangs, eyeballs, blood, and bones are. That means that they would know how much they see her body parts!

Just like that, Lisa unleashed her vampiric abilities, aiming to kill the trio…

With the Shadow Veil Spell, Lisa beca wraith-like shadow, her form blending with the darkness of the tower. She struck from the darkness, and her attacks were nearly invisible, but Darius anticipated her movements, his eyes seeing through the veil of time.

Lisa switched with her Sanguine Chains as blood-red chains erupted from the ground, seeking to bind the TManipulators.

However, Giorgi sliced through them with his blade, each cut reversing the chains' existence, as if they had never been.

At this time, Lisa was already getting frustrated since not even the Demon Saints could ignore these attacks from her!

"So persistent… Cat me!" Lisa shouted as she used Night's Embrace!

The surrounding temperature grew cold as Lisa summoned the chill of the grave, a frost that sought to sap the warmth of life.

However, it seemed as if all of her attacks were useless. Jin countered with a temporal bubble, reversing the effect and turning the cold into a fleeting memory.

Luckily, Lisa didn't seem to think that the Night's Embrace would be enough to defeat these people.

As soon as she cast the Night's Embrace, she also used Feral Swarm!

A horde of bats, each a fragment of Lisa's essence, swarmed the TManipulators.

They moved as one, a cloud of fangs and fury, but Jin, Giorgi, and Darius stood back-to-back…

"That's impressive, Vampire! Show us more!"

Jin shouted as their combined powers created a vortex of tthat scattered the swarm into disarray.

This time, Lisa's gloves glowed ominously as she slashed at the air!

Crimson Laceration!

This was the third skill of her Red Bruiser!

The activation of this skill created arcs of destructive energy that sought to rend the very fabric of reality.

Giorgi met her strikes with his own, the clash of their powers resonating through the tower.

At this point, the commotion they had created had already alerted everyone in the castle!

Of course, this includes the King and his subjects!

Soon, King Larry Morgan ordered a few of his Royal Mages to ascertain the situation in Lisa's Tower!

Despite that, the battle raged on… The tower itself becan arena for their deadly fight.

Lisa fought with the desperation of one who knew defeat was likely, but her resolve to stay alive was unbreakable.

As she realized that she could never get a clean punch on these three people, Lisa decided to use her Red Bruiser's most powerful ability to escape! She was planning to destroy whatever these three people had created outside to block her senses and her familiars from going out!

Boom!

She used herSpace Breakerability, annihilating a section of the tower's wall to create an opening for escape, but the TManipulators had anticipated this move. They sealed the breach with a temporal patch, restoring the wall as if it had never been destroyed!

It happened so quickly as Lisa failed to escape!

"Tsk… You're pushing it!"

As the fight continued, Lisa's strength began to wane.

The TManipulators' relentless assault, their ability to manipulate taround her attacks, left her struggling to find an opening.

She made one final, desperate charge, her Red Bruiser gloves pulsing with the last of her power.

But it was not to be.

Jin, Giorgi, and Darius combined their powers for a final move, theChronal Convergence, a technique that synchronized their attacks into a single, devastating blow. Taround Lisa slowed to a crawl, her movements beclabored, and the combined force of the TManipulators' strike sent her crashing to the ground, defeated but not dishonored.

"Mhmm… That last attack was really awesome." Jin muttered as he truly felt amazed by how strong Lisa was.

He didn't expect that Vampire could actually reach a level where they had to use Chronal Convergence with the three of them.

The TManipulators stood victorious, their respect for Lisa's tenacity evident in their solemn expressions.

They had faced one of the fiercest vampires and emerged triumphant, but the battle had tested their limits and forged a new understanding of the Vampires.

"I'll still take her blood." Darius said.

"I keep her two eyes then." Giorgi muttered after sthoughts.

"So I'll get the fangs and everything else? That includes her gloves, right? Go ahead then…" Jin said as they easily finished discussing how they would divide Lisa's body.

As the energy in the surroundings started calming down, Lisa lay motionless amidst the ruins of the Vampire's Tower.

They could tell that there were other Arcanists coming at them, but they didn't have to worry about them. Although they used plenty of Temporal Energy just now, they still have more than enough to defeat about 5 more of these Vampires.

"Mhmm? Something's off." Jin muttered as he felt an ominous threat looming over them.

The others also noticed this, but they couldn't tell where the threat was coming from, so they couldn't move yet.

The TManipulators stood vigilant, their eyes fixed on their fallen adversary, wary of any sign of resurgence.

But as the moonlight bathed her in its ethereal glow, a transformation began to take place.

Without their knowledge, a pure drop ofDivine Blood, bestowed upon her by Shane, stirred within her veins.

This Divine Blood was filled with Shane's essence and was completely different from the other Immortal Blood she was drinking from Shane from tto time!

Needless to say, this Divine Blood, was a gift meant for dire circumstances, a wellspring of power that could turn the tide of the most desperate battles. As the Divine Blood activated, a radiant aura enveloped Lisa, her wounds knitting together, her strength returning in a surge of divine vitality.

Lisa's body rose, her eyes ablaze with renewed power and fierce might…

"This is interesting…" Jin muttered as he looked at the Vampire emanating with Divinity!

Of course, the TManipulators were taken aback by this unexpected revival. They could only brace themselves for another onslaught!
