Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 795 Extract

Lesley, cloaked in the Death God's dark veil, observed Kyle and his entourage from the shadows.

Her initial impulse was to leap into battle, to confront Kyle with the ferocity of her newfound powers. She wanted to exact vengeance for the humiliation she had faced from him!

She wanted to show how she had changed in a short period and make this Shadow Immortal fear her!

Yet, she hesitated as she was about to do so…

"What's this?" She murmured.

A peculiar sensation tugged at her senses. It was a trace of Divinity that resonated with the Death God's sight that was bestowed upon her.

Although she didn't fully obtain the Death God's eyes, she could still use a part of its power and see the traces of Divinity around.

She did not recognize the name Halvor, nor could she fathom the nature of the concealed deity. But the eyes of the Death God pierced through veils unseen by mortals, revealing the divine essence hidden within the man who walked among the city's populace, disguised as an ordinary human.

Lesley immediately realized what was going on. The Shadow Immortal was hunting the Immortal!

"Will they clash in this large crowd?" Lesley pondered, her curiosity piqued.

If they really fought here, there were numerous innocent lives that would be taken. She didn't mind since they weren't from the Dark Arts Faction, but she was curious about what Kyle would do in this situation.

'If they're going to fight… Then that's good for me.' Lesley thought for a moment.

She actually doesn't have the confidence to kill the Shadow Immortal yet. At most, she planned to injure him and retreat immediately with the new Spells she had obtained.

It would be considered a victory for her already.

'I guess I might even kill the Shadow Immortal if I do this well…' Lesley thought as she used the power of the Death God to conceal her presence even more.

For now, she decided to bide her time, to watch and wait.

The unfolding drama was more complex than a mere skirmish, and she sensed that the stakes were higher than she had anticipated.

Silent as a wraith, Lesley trailed Kyle and his two companions.

They moved with purpose, and as they did, Lesley was even more confident in saying that they were really following the concealed Immortal and planning to eliminate him.

Furthermore, she also realized that Kyle's companions were not simple.

'They're strange…'

Their senses were definitely attuned to the traces of Divinity. Of course, it was except for her since she knew that her presence went unnoticed, her form blended seamlessly with the night.

However, she couldn't help but feel that there was something more to Kyle's companions. They may not possess Divinity, but they certainly possess strange powers.

'Whatever… I'll see once they start fighting.'

As Kyle's group navigated the city's labyrinthine streets while following the concealed Immortal, Lesley's mind raced with possibilities.

What could draw such beings together in this place? How did he offend the Shadow Immortal?

Nonetheless, the man they pursued, Halvor, moved with ease.

His aura, though shrouded, could be easily seen through Lesley's enhanced vision. She could see the threads of time and destiny weaving around him… It was part of the mysterious powers bestowed by the Death God's Eyes…

Halvor, the Eminence of the Sea, had just set his sights on the pleasures of a brothel, eager to indulge in the mortal delights, when the air around him grew tense.

The fabric of time itself seemed to ripple and distort as the two Time Manipulators at Kyle's side invoked a potent temporal incantation.

"Hmm? Is this a Time Spell?" Halvor mused.

The disturbance did not go unnoticed by Halvor.

A smirk played upon his lips, his confidence unshaken. He had faced countless foes across the eons; what were two mere Manipulators to him?

But as he prepared to unleash his divine might, a new, chilling presence crept into his awareness—the Shadow Immortal, Kyle.

'They're together?' Halvor's eyes widened as he looked at the two Time Manipulators with a strange brand in their soul!

'An enslavement spell!'

In that moment, Halvor's confidence wavered.

The combined threat of the Time Manipulators and the Shadow Immortal was more than he had anticipated.

Perhaps a duel between him and the Shadow Immortal was still not that bad. However, with the help of the Time Manipulators, he knew that it would just drain his energy and lose eventually.

With a surge of urgency, he turned to flee, seeking the safety of the sea's embrace.

'I need to escape or at least bring the battle in the sea…' Halvor thought as he knew his advantage very well.

Luckily, the sea wasn't too far. That was the reason he chose this city in the first place.

As he triggered his Water Escape Spell, a movement technique that would make his body turn into water to escape, something unexpected happened.

Kyle moved quicker!

With a flick of his wrist, ethereal chains materialized from the aether, the Astral Chains, shimmering with malevolent energy.

They wrapped around Halvor, binding him with an otherworldly force that even his divine power struggled to resist.

Of course, this was a spell from a Dimensional Creature that could travel through the universe! It would not be easy to remove it! Halvor may have a chance to escape, but that would take some time!

However, Kyle only needed a few moments!

Halvor roared, a sound that echoed through the streets; however, the people didn't notice it as if they were in a different dimension!

"Shadow Immortal! I curse you!" Halvor shouted as he poured all of his might to destroy the chains!

Clank! Clank! Clank!

He fought against the chains, his form flickering with the intensity of a storm at sea!

Kyle didn't care about this as he stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with dark purpose.

He triggered another Spell from his collection of Demonic Arts!

It was the Corruption Curse!

This time, Kyle wanted to ensure that he'd get to extract this being!
