Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy



The second-year students of the Academy gathered at the Assembly Hall, where the examination would be conducted.

It will be supervised by three Professors from higher years, and it seemed that Professor Stella had already called for them.

No professors are supervising them at the moment, so the Hall is a bit noisy.

Leonore looked at Vale, who was together with his group of friends. She had wanted to talk to him, but whenever she had a chance, his friends or maybe their classmates would just pop out, and her chance would be gone.

Then, their classes became so busy since they had several weeks of having no classes, thanks to the Secret Organization and the Thunder Emperor's attack.

Because of these incidents, the professors didn't hold back as they left them with so many things to do. They couldn't even enjoy their Club Activities as they had to always think of the assignments and reports they needed to do.

Leonore sighed internally as she looked at the other students who should be marked by the Professors.

Among the students, there were four who stood out the most. They were Maya Featherstar from Class 1, Vale Chambers from Class 2, Leo Blaze from Class 3, and Luna Moon from Class 4.

They were considered to be the best students in their respective classes, and they had mastered several Dark Spells, including the Light Absorption Spell, which was the second academy-exclusive Spell. Perhaps, only about 50% of them had learned this Spell…

'If I'm not mistaken, Maya's Light Absorption Spell was already at the peak of the Elementary Realm. I wonder how she did that…' Leonore silently thought as her Light Absorption Spell was only in the early stage of the Elementary Realm.

This was even through the help of their Club President. She could probably accept it if Maya only reached the middle stage of the Elementary Realm, but the peak stage was just too fast.

"Leonore… I heard from my friends in Class 1 that Maya had already learned Dark Nova and Spirit Hand Spells in Intermediate Realm. Do you think she cheated?" Jody, one of Leonore's friends, whispered as she noticed that her friend was looking at Maya.

"I'm not sure… But I heard that Maya was now learning under Professor Sherah… She's an old professor in the Dark Magic Branch. Professor Sherah might even be one of the professors that will supervise us today." Felicia answered beside her.

Leonore agreed with Felicia since she had also heard about Maya's current master. However, she didn't think too much of it.

"Warren and Dalton also had two Intermediate Realm Dark Spells… It's not that surprising if Maya also had two." Leonore explained.

If she and Vale weren't present in Class 2, Warren and Dalton would probably be in the top spot of Class 2. Their growth speed was just too great that they almost surpassed her in terms of Spirit Strands.

Anyway, Leonore shifted her attention to the top student of Class 3.

His name was Leo Blaze. He was a fiery and passionate boy from a famous family and had a close relationship with her Roland Family.

Well, it was quite natural to be their friends since their families both specialized in the Art of Curses. In the Dark Arts' Ritual Branch, aside from the Ravinie Noble Clan, the Roland and Blaze families had authority.

"Hahaha! I will show everyone how great I am! Don't worry!" Leo suddenly laughed as he heard his classmates cheering for him.

His classmates had probably given up on standing out in this examination, so they could only cheer for their friend and hope that he would bring glory to their class.

Leo had spiky red hair and brown eyes, and he wore a red jacket with black stripes. Since they will only have an assessment today, the professor informed them that they have a choice of not wearing their uniforms.

Although many students still decided to wear the uniforms, Leo was obviously not one of them.

Leonore then heard their conversations and learned that Leo had already recorded several Dark Spells in their peak stages of Elementary Realm. They were the Spectral Hands, Flesh Bane, and Dusk Imprisonment. He was confident that he could ace the exam and show off.

On the other hand, Luna Moon was a shy and sweet girl who came from a mysterious family of Dark Magicians. She had long silver hair and purple eyes and wore a blue dress with white lace under her uniform coat. Leonore only knew that Luna focused on learning Corruption-Related Spells.

Including Vale, these four students would probably be the most watched students in this examination.

'Should I also show off my skills?' Leonore thought to herself as she considered revealing her achievement as a Dark Seer… However, she shook her head. It was still too early for her. Perhaps, she needed two or three more years before she could show off this ability.

Creak~

Soon, the door of the Assembly Hall opened. They saw Professor Stella entering together with three other Professors from the higher years.

Unfortunately, Felicia's guess was wrong as Professor Sherah wasn't included in the supervisors for today's examination.

"Good morning, students. These three professors will be assisting us today to see your Darkness Manipulation Spell Mastery and one of your best Spells. Yes… We only need to see two of your Spells. Your Darkness Manipulation Spell and any other Spell that you want to show us. It doesn't matter what Spell it is. You just need to show off how well you can control it and how great it is. However, keep in mind that you will be performing this under the pressure of the Dark Aura of these three Professors."

Stella explained as the students started whispering to each other. They didn't expect this form of assessment so many of them started looking worried. They weren't that confident to show off with only two Spells!

Stella listened to their silent complaints but she just continued.

She introduced the three professors.

The first one who caught the eyes of many male students was Professor Zara Zane, a young and cheerful woman who teaches Dark Illusions, a type of Dark Magic that can create false images and sounds to deceive or confuse others.

Then it was Professor Cyrus Crane, an old and serious man who teaches Dark Curses and Hexes. He looked very strict and demanding to his students, but he also looked very knowledgeable and experienced.

Finally, it was Professor Mark Morton, another old man who teaches Shadow Arts, a type of Dark Magic that can manipulate shadows and darkness.

After introducing the three, Professor Stella continued. "I want everyone to take this matter seriously… I want you all to do your best and not hide your hidden skills. If you do well in this examination, you will earn 2 Contributions Points. It wasn't limited to one student but to at least 30 Students! And the student who could show the highest level of mastery in their spells would receive special teachings from our three great Professors."

Stella explained as she looked at the students with a reserved smile on her face.

It was as if she was hiding something about this examination.
