Chapter 582 Mirror

Yvaine didn't answer Lisa's question, but her calm demeanor was already an answer for her.

'How did Vale come here faster than the professors or the Faction's Vessels?' Lisa mused as she knew that her guess was most likely correct.

Anyway, she couldn't help but smile as she put down the laboratory tools she was holding.

"What? Vale's Dark Spirit? Then... Is he the one attacking the castle?" Chad said as he couldn't help but feel worried. If Vale was killed, they wouldn't be able to forgive themselves.

"It must be him... Dark Spirit, are you going to take us away with you?" Lisa asked. She wanted to know if the attack was a diversion and if the Dark Spirit was here to take them away.Explore the genesis of this content at nov@lbin★

They didn't want their friend to die fighting against the old monster who claimed to have practiced all Arcane Paths.

If they could lessen his burden, they would do so.

'Even if Vale is a genius Dark Magician, there's no way he can win against that old monster.' Lisa thought as she turned to Chad, who seemed to have something in mind.

"Ahh... That Dark Spirit left." Lisa muttered as the Spirit suddenly disappeared from her Magic Zone.

"She probably returned to inform Vale." Chad commented as he shifted his attention to the mirror beside him.

Soon, he uttered a silent prayer.

"Esteemed ArchFey of the Third Era, the 13th Warden of the Spirit World, the current Spirit of the Pristine Mirror, grant me your audience... In accordance with the vow, a practitioner of the Darkness Path will find the light within the darkness, and it'll outshine even the darkest of shades."

This prayer won't normally work since Chad doesn't possess the Pristine Mirror. He was simply using a normal mirror within the Alchemy Laboratory.

However, they learned in their third-year class that Mennena could still be called as long they sacrifice their blood and an object that has decent value. Well, Cursed Artifacts are preferred, but they could be changed depending on the quality of the item.

After Chad's prayer, he cut his finger with a sterilized knife and dropped a few of them on the mirror.

Then, he threw the knife as well. It was a mid-grade Mortal Rank item and was quite pathetic. However, Chad had another secret.

As soon as Mennena said this, the power that was lent to her by Chad had reached its limit.

Mennena immediately disappeared, and the mirror returned to normal.

"I knew it... We're saved! Thank you, Mennena!" Chad replied with eagerness as he looked at the excited Lisa.

"This is great! I wonder if Vale was together with the Headmaster or perhaps some members of the Vessels..." Lisa muttered.

The laboratory room's seal was still active, so they still had to wait until Magnus was defeated. At this time, they could only speculate about the identities of the people that was helping Vale.

"I think Mennena would recognize the Headmaster if he was with Vale. Since they're called Mysterious, they are probably from the Order of the Evanescent Vessels or Arcanists directly from the Vermont Clan." Chad replied after some time.

He believed that the Vessels protecting their Academy would be tasked to search for them. However, he also knew that the Vermont Clan behind the Vermont Academy would also make their move to save students like them.

In the meantime, while Lisa and Chad waited to be rescued, Vale had finally completed half of his extraction.

"Now!" Vale shouted the moment he felt the Formation was about to break.

At his signal, Pearl acted without hesitation, hurling an Energy Spear that tore through the Trap Formation.

The Trap Formation had always blocked her attacks, so she had been quite frustrated for a while now.

"Take this!" Pearl exclaimed as she unleashed the powerful energy, her eyes blazing with annoyance.

Boom!

Soon, the Energy Spear hurtled directly toward Magnus, catching him off guard.

The impact sent shockwaves through the place, causing the castle's main hall to tremble and the torches to flicker.
