Chapter 487 Corruption
While Manager Faith was handling the two main forces of this raid against the Vermont Academy, the Vessels outside had started their battles against the enemies.
As Reed and Cleo stood side by side, their transformed beings radiated the power of the Shadow Realm. It was heavy and more prominent than the Dark Energy that the enemies were familiar with.
The Moonlight Reaper and the Ninth Shadow Guardian had merged with the two's physical forms, granting them extraordinary abilities and an aura that struck fear into the hearts of their enemies.
They no longer looked like humans in their current state.
Before them stood a formidable assembly of Arcanists from the Mystic Arts Faction, the Holy Arts Faction, and the Combat Arts Faction. The surrounding air felt chaotic with the clash of energy…
Boom!
With another Massive Holy Smite, the Black Dome protecting the Academy had finally collapsed!
With a swift movement, Cleo, or the Moonlight Reaper, unleashed a torrent of lunar beams emanating from his scythe-like weapon.
These beams sliced through the air, striking down multiple Arcanists with precise accuracy!
That's right, it broke through layers of barriers and killed several Arcanists in this surprise attack!
Probably because of the Dome's explosion, the Arcanists from the Mystic Arts Faction found themselves disoriented as their spells were disrupted, almost unable to withstand the lunar beams.
Meanwhile, Reed, now infused with the power of the Ninth Shadow Guardian, commanded dark tendrils that lashed out with blinding speed.

Pah! Pah!
Each strike found its mark, incapacitating opponents with a paralyzing touch. The Arcanists from the Holy Arts Faction, known for their radiant spells, found their light extinguished as Reed's darkness engulfed them.
Although the Holy Arts worked well against any Spells related to darkness, the difference in power must still be considered.
"Mass Rejuvenation!"
One of the leaders of the Holy Knights had finally finished casting a spell and cured his companions of the confusion brought by the explosion of the Dome.
However, the other Vessels didn't stop from attacking.
The members of the Order, who had also become Vessels for powerful entities, fought alongside Reed and Clea.
They unleashed very unusual attacks that contained the Dark Energy and an otherwordly energy that the enemies weren't prepared for.
Some of them threw curses and some conjured dark items like chains and swords…
However, what made it more difficult for the Holy Knights and Priests was the fact that the overwhelming energy of their opponents made their spells less effective!
"Attack!" One of the Holy Knights shouted as he signaled the Shamans and Runecasters to release their Spells.
Boom! Boom!
Various spells collided in mid-air, creating explosions that rocked the battlefield.
Arcane shields shimmered and shattered under the relentless assault, while the clash of weapons reverberated through the air.
Despite the overwhelming numbers of their opponents, Reed and Cleo fought with tenaciousness. They were both overwhelmingly powerful as they dominated their surrounding area.
It wasn't planned, but the Moonlight Reaper and Shadow Guardian seemed to have great synergy. It was evident as they seamlessly coordinated their attacks, exploiting weaknesses and protecting each other in the heat of battle.
They may no longer have the minds of the two Squad Leaders, but they were still bound by the two to follow their last order--to protect the Academy from the invaders.
The Arcanists from the three factions started having trouble.
They suddenly found themselves on the defensive.
Some of the Holy Knights, Mystic Magicians, and Runecaster in front started hesitating. Fear crept into their eyes as they witnessed the sheer power and ferocity of their opponents.
"Knight Morris, we received a signal from Sir Paterson to destroy the Academy! The treasures and others are no longer important! They will find a way not to get caught by the destruction!"
As the Holy Knight leading the assault to the Academy was contemplating how to suppress the Vessels, he heard a report from one of their secret messengers hiding on the battlefield.
His eyes immediately lit up with excitement as he raised his arm and summoned his Light Spirit!
The Light Spirit could be considered similar to the Elemental Spirits.
However, they do not have a humanoid form, unlike the Elemental Spirits. They seem just like an Orb of Light that could communicate with their summoner.
Whom~
Suddenly, a brilliant light emanated from the battlefield, capturing the attention of everyone present. The Vessels, mistaking it for an attack, swiftly responded by conjuring their defenses and launching counterattacks towards the source of the luminosity.
However, this radiant display was not an offensive move but rather a signal for the hidden Exorcist Division of the Untainted Sentinels!
Their real purpose was to confront the final line of defense within the Vermont Academy. They shouldn't be appearing just yet.
After all, it was common knowledge that the land surrounding the Academy was once a domain of the dead. However, the Dark Arts Faction suppressed them and sealed them in various places in the Magical Fortress, now the Vermont Academy.
Knight Morris, faced with the unexpected strength of the Vessels, made the decision to unveil the Exorcist Division.
The Vessels had to be exorcised, and the dark possession that was slowly affecting their Arcanists had to be halted.
'This place had madness everywhere… As expected, only those with Darkness Possession can last longer in this pathetic Academy. We've only been here for a few minutes, and we're already being corrupted…' Knight Morris complained as he didn't expect that a Holy Knight like him would be troubled by the Academy's corruption.
"Proceed at once!" Morris commanded, his voice resonating with urgency. He knew there was no need to explain the task to the Exorcists; they were well aware of their mission.
The fifty or so Exorcists, brimming with power, understood that their primary targets were the Possessed Dark Magicians. With a collective prayer that reverberated like a solemn hymn, a surge of immense Light Energy enveloped the entire Academy, specifically targeting the otherworldly beings that had taken possession of the Dark Magicians.
