Chapter 861: Soul



The matters in the Airship were soon settled by members of the Arcane Bureau after they revealed their identities.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

At this time, the Airship itself was already broken, and repair would take weeks if not months.

Because of that, Vale decided to bring the members of the Arcane Bureau to his castle and use their extra Airship there to visit the Pallham Empire, where the Rank Zero Demon Saint could be hiding.

For this, Vale's Avatar had to use his Broken Arcana, the Blindfold, to bring all of them back to the castle.

Using his Arcana, he created a tear in space and guided the twelve members, led by Captain Ashley, through the portal.

They soon found themselves standing in the grand hall of Vale's Castle.

Vale immediately summoned one of the castle's servants to attend to Ashley's group.

"You can go ahead and rest. We will use the airship to travel to the Pallham Empire tomorrow," Vale informed Ashley before taking his leave. He just received a message from Magnus through telepathy and was requesting his presence inside Denise's laboratory. Ashley expressed her gratitude to Vale, the Shadow Immortal, for his hospitality. "Thank you for your generosity," she said, even though Vale was no longer in sight. After a few moments, the members of the Bureau started appreciating the castle. This was their first time entering the home of the Shadow Immortal, so they were overwhelmed...

"I can't believe we just entered his castle," one of Ashley's subordinates remarked, awe evident in their voice.

"Indeed... I wonder what we can find here," another added, curiosity piqued.

"I hope I brought a Recording Crystal with me."

"Idiot... That's probably not allowed. This is still a private property."

"Ahem... I just joking... Anyway, I hope we can look around this place."

Of course, the Captain of the group was also interested in this place. After all, they might never get a chance to enter this castle ever again.

After taking a deep breath, Ashley gathered up her courage as she approached one of the servants and inquired if they could explore the castle.

Thankfully, it was fine.

The servant informed them that there were only a few restricted areas they should avoid. The servant listed the places and they all nodded.

She should be satisfied to know about these highly advanced metal golems.

Meanwhile, as Vale left the visitors from the Arcane Bureau, he made his way to Denise's laboratory, a place brimming with arcane energy and mysterious creations that Denise had made over the past few years.

As he entered, he was greeted by the sight of Magnus and Denise, who were waiting for his

arrival.

But what caught his eye was the towering figure of Denise's latest creation.

Needless to say, it the Apex Guardian, Denise's latest creation, that had also left Magnus in

awe.

Vale's eyes widened in surprise.

"Did you make this?" he asked, his voice tinged with admiration.

Denise looked up, a proud smile playing on her lips.

"Yes, I was waiting for you. I have a plan to save your body with its help. However, I just need

"A soul, right?" Vale interrupted, his smile widening as he revealed a glowing, purified soul.

The ethereal light danced in his palm, casting a serene glow around the room. He could immediately tell what was missing on the android just from a glance.

Magnus and Denise stared in stunned silence, their eyes fixed on the soul Vale held.

They could sense the immense power emanating from it. It certainly had a formidable origin.

However, Vale's next words stunned them even more...

"This is from one of the Seven Deadly Sins, Sloth," Vale explained...
