Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

"Is that true?" Blair's eyes lit up in excitement. As someone who had a deep interest in the Variants, his fascination with various forms of living beings surpassed anyone in this classroom.

He had only heard about these Evil Creatures and had never met one before. He didn't expect that not even a week had passed in the academy and he would encounter them already.

Needless to say, it's difficult to meet Evil Creatures since corpses are immediately handled by the morgues or various institutions working for the Factions to cremate them quickly.

However, as expected of the Dark Arts Academy, they have actually decided to disrespect a corpse and allowed it to be possessed and become a slave or perhaps a pet of some sort.

"That's right… We will be meeting a docile one so you need not worry. Are you all ready? We will be leaving this classroom since I can't bring the creature here." Professor Lucius asked.

At this point, one of them raised his hands.

"Professor Lucius, do we have something to note if we saw the creature?" Vale asked curiously. His knowledge about the evil creature came from the books and most of them don't have anything good to say about these creatures.

Although he mentioned not to worry, they should at least know the do's or don'ts in this matter.

Professor Lucius nodded as he looked at everyone in the class.

"If you're seeing an Evil Creature that is possessed by a strong Evil Spirit, you have to run for your life since your pathetic spell models will be useless against them. Currently, all of your Spells might be useful for parlor tricks but not for real creatures of the Arcane Path." Professor Lucius reminded them ruthlessly.

Although he wasn't sure what Spells they have stored in the spell lights, they must be in the elementary realm and would only be useful against ordinary humans.

"Just try not to make fun of it so it won't look at you menacingly… You might dream of it every single night and cause you a nightmare. That's not good." He added.

The other students felt a bit offended since they were all proud of their skills. To be honest, they have been waiting to show off their Spell Models all this time but they didn't have any chance.contemporary romance

Nevertheless, no one complained as none of them would dare to say that they have a spell capable of defeating an Evil Creature. None of them have ever tried fighting an Evil Creature after all.

It would be a very embarrassing moment if they tried and were defeated instead.

"We understand, Professor."

"We're ready! Please, lead us the way."

Neil already stood up in excitement. He wanted to see this creature as quickly as possible.

"Very well. Follow me." Professor Lucius said as he lead the class to a huge and cold hall. It was located at the underground facility of the right wing building of the Academy.

Serenity Hall.

This is the name of the place according to the huge words written on the steel gate.

Everyone was silently following the Professor as they were led to a corridor made of white marble. Soon, they entered a huge circular room where a human-size birdcage can be seen at its center.

The place was lit up by bulb-like devices similar to the ones Vale found in his room.

Anyway, the place is too huge for a single human-sized birdcage so it was quite suspicious. Vale believed that the Serenity Hall has another purpose other than storing a single 'docile' evil creature.

The huge white room doesn't have any other doors or exits aside from the ones they used. Everyone would have to pass through the white corridor if one wanted to enter or leave this place.  There were also no windows around so Vale felt like this is a highly sophisticated prison.

"We're here…" Professor Lucius said.

"Ahh? Where is it, professor? The cage is empty." Neil asked.

The others nodded as they can't see the creature that Professor Lucius told them… Is he playing a prank on them? Some of them thought as they looked at their professor.

At this point, Professor Lucius didn't seem surprised as he continued.

"I can remove the seal to let you see it with your naked eyes but you can also use your Phantasm State to see it… Is there anyone here who hasn't learned how it's done?" He asked.

Everyone glanced at Lisa since she was the only one without any mysticism background here.

Lisa shyly raised her hands.

Professor Lucius nodded and said.  "It's fine… You're here to study how it is done after all. For now, I'll allow everyone to have three minutes to view the creature with your Phantasm State… After that, I'll remove the seal around the cage so that not only can you see it, but you'll also feel its presence or aura."

Without waiting for any more words from the professor, they immediately entered their Phantasm State to view the evil creature…

"Aahhh…" Felicia gasps in shock after seeing the creature. It was similar for the others as they weren't expecting a hideous appearance so suddenly appear inside the cage!

"I-it's a demon!" Neil shouted as he stepped back in shock.

"Is that really a docile evil creature?"

"I can't even think how that being was supposed to be a human corpse before."

"Professor, why are we not killing it? Is that thing useful?"

The others asked curiously as they made sure to step back… From their perspective, the steel bars that are keeping the creature are a bit too thin…

Since the creature is a bit large with a muscular build, it appears as if it could easily bend the bars open so it could free itself.

Of course, they know that the cage wasn't simple since according to the Professor, it has a seal that even hides the creature from the naked eye.

But even if that was the case, many of them were still a bit afraid of getting near!
