Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy - #560 - 560 Black Cloth

Clovis grinned from ear to ear as he had already felt extremely blessed from his first few extractions.

However, he still had plenty of dried-up corpses to extract, so he had to move quickly. After all, he knew that the longer the corpses remained unattended, the lower attributes he’d get from them.

…

The Extractions continued for a while, and after some time, Clovis extracted a total of 13 Spell Models from the corpses, and 10 of them were new.

Anyway, It seems that the other corpses were too drained and only gave Spell Lights or Attribute Points. Nevertheless, Clovis was elated by the result of his Extraction Spree.

He then checked his Spell List once again to confirm which Arcane Paths they were placed.

[ Dark Arts: Spell Dispersion Lv8, Incorruptible Body Lv10, Darkness Manipulation Lv8, Spirit Vision Lv7, Light Absorption Lv7, Create Shadow Soldier Lv7, Active Curse Break Lv7, Corpse Explosion Lv7, Locate Corpse Lv7, Shadow Gate Lv7, Moonlight Specter Lv7, Chain of Souls Lv7, Oblivion Trance Lv7 ]

[ Elemental Arts: Tidal Wave Torrent Lv7, Water Domain Lv7, Flame Arrow Lv0, Ember Spirit Lv0 ]

[ Rune Arts: Rune Simplification Lv0, Rune Analysis Lv0 ]

In the end, Clovis obtained 1 Combat Spell, 3 Mystic Spells, 2 Beast Spells, 2 Elemental Spells, and 2 Rune Spells.

As for the three other spells, they were Meridian Access Spell, Arcane Armor Spell, and Active Curse Break Spell.

“Not bad… I have more Spells to Fuse in my free time.” Clovis smiled as he saw the Spells in his collection grow larger.

It was a pity that the Archbishop had only given him the Exorcism Spell the last time. At this time, he really wanted to have more Holy Arts Spells since they could be a lot more useful, especially during this time when the Holy Arts Faction and the Church of the Fortune Goddess were hunting the Dark Arts Practitioners.

‘Should I visit their church sometime?’ Clovis mused as he thought of extracting their Priests or even their Crusaders. In any case, just taking one of two of their Spell Models wouldn’t kill them.

They could just learn them again if they lost it.

After a few moments, he started salvaging any remaining usable items from the area and securing them for his own use. He was quite lucky that the Vampire didn’t destroy most of the items brought by the Arcanists.

Of course, he confirmed that none of the items exuded a dangerous aura, so he handled them without concern. He simply employed his Aura to mitigate any potential side effects.

‘Not bad…’ Clovis muttered after picking up a cane that the leader of the Ash Squad probably used.

‘Hmm?’

As he went about this task, a sudden surge of mystical energy reverberated throughout the castle. This prompted Clovis to swiftly expand his Magic Zone to pinpoint the source of the phenomenon.

“Oh? Did she find something?” Clovis mused as he realized that Yvaine had triggered something in one of the rooms.

Without hesitation, he went to the room and confirmed that Yvaine was trying to take a crimson orb.

The room in question was a chamber steeped in ancient grandeur, its walls adorned with tattered tapestries that depicted scenes of legendary battles and mythic creatures.

‘That Vampire had a nice collection of paintings…’ Clovis commented in his mind as he observed the room and its paintings.

The faded images seemed to come to life as the flickering torchlight cast dancing shadows upon the engraved markings.

“Yvaine… Move back for now… I think that Orb is dangerous.” Clovis said as he didn’t like the Aura emanating within the room. His Detection Spells failed him to identify the Orb after all.

Yvaine followed his instructions, but she also informed Clovis that she had collected a few interesting items that were stored in his shadow.

After Clovis thanked the Dark Spirit, he then continued looking around to get some clue about what kind of room this was.

On the chamber’s aged stone floor, intricate patterns of several Vampires were etched, hinting at the room’s storied past.

The ceiling, adorned with ornate carvings that seemed to show the orthodox churches, loomed overhead, casting an ethereal glow upon the chamber.

Amidst the splendor shown in the room, the crimson orb stood at the center of it, emanating a mesmerizing, iridescent aura that seemed to pulse with otherworldly energy.

“Fiend Essence?” Clovis guessed as he felt the similarity it had. He wasn’t exactly sure, but he was thinking of triggering the Orb with his Moonlight Specter to see what would happen.

However, as he was thinking of this, he immediately recalled one of his precious items.

“Ah! Right… Maybe it’s time to use this…” Clovis muttered, reaching for a black cloth secured tightly on his arm.

Unmistakably, it was the blindfold of the Archbishop, obtained through his adept use of Traceless Shift.

With a tinge of anticipation adorning his countenance, he donned the mysterious Arcana of the Archbishop.
