Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Chapter 537 Extracted to Nothingness

'Can I increase the potency of extraction with divinity points?' Eustace didn't disregard Constance's reminder even though she didn't know about his Divine Extraction System.

After all, what she said was also something he had been considering before, but he simply had no idea how to do it.

Well, in his extractions, he would simply wait for his system to complete the process. However, there was a time when he trained to extract only the attribute he wanted to take, so right now, he was considering whether the principle would be the same.

Empowered by Constance's guidance, Eustace contemplated the pivotal role of his celestial physique and the latent divinity within him.

'There's no harm giving a try…'

With a plan in his mind, he sought to harness this special ability. Seeking to imbue his extraction abilities with the empowering force of divinity, might be the thing that he really needed in a daring bid to overcome the relentless prowess of Gluttony.

Eustace then looked at his opponent's movements and nodded.

'Since the Gluttony isn't planning to get closer… Then let's just experiment on this.' Eustace mused as he started triggering his Divinity Points.

He had no system to help him with this, so instead, he focused on his introspection to find the Divinity that was stored in his body.

After all, he knew that his attributes, spell lights, extracted essences, and energy points, were all in his body. They weren't in another dimension…

Eustace then conducted a thorough internal search, scouring his half-celestial physique to pinpoint the precise location where he had stored his divine essence.

To his relief, fortune favored him, as he swiftly discerned the presence of his Divinity Points nestled within the depths of his heart.

This discovery left him marveling at the remarkable nature of his physique, a testament to the inherent uniqueness of his half-celestial lineage.

'Now… How to do this…' Eustace mused as he narrowed his eyes.

After he took a deep breath, he used his profound understanding of manipulating Dark Energy.

He didn't hesitate as he deftly channeled a tiny fraction of his abundant Divinity, carefully maneuvering this 'essence' to intermingle with the enigmatic force permeating his Extraction System.

With a careful movement, he orchestrated the fusion of his Divinity with the energy that he was releasing, a bold maneuver intended to augment the efficacy of his extraction capabilities.

"Oh~ It's working!"

In the wake of this daring gambit, Eustace noticed the outcome of his experiment!

The fusion of his Divinity with the potent force of the Extraction System yielded a discernible transformation, imbuing his extraction ability with an unprecedented potency.

This pivotal development signaled a newfound phase in the struggle against Gluttony!

'Alright… I'll take everything from you.' Eustace silently thought as he didn't plan to be merciful on this entity.

In the meantime, Gluttony also realized that there was something wrong with his body.

While Eustace's amplified extraction technique grew in strength, a profound sense of astonishment gripped Gluttony as he felt the changes unfolding within his own being.

"You're copying my ability?" Gluttony exclaimed, taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.

He had not anticipated encountering someone capable of using the same ability as his. He could only speculate that Eustace might be wielding a similar Devil's Ability that could replicate almost any Spells or Special Abilities. After all, it was something he had witnessed in the Abyss Realm.

Feeling his strength wane with each passing moment, Gluttony observed the disconcerting transformation overtaking his form, as it darkened and began to fade like ashes.

"I lost?" He muttered, gazing at his possessed body. He still wanted to fight and drew more power from his original body, but he knew that his current body was already collapsing.

Despite Theodore's unsuitability as a vessel, having been a feeble middle-aged man devoid of talent in any Arcane Paths, Gluttony had consumed over 90 human lives, 22 of which were Arcanists.

He had deemed this more than sufficient to contend with a handful of Arcanists, which had emboldened him to confront the Torrent Squad and shun any notions of escape.

Realizing that he had failed this time as well, Gluttony had a deep sigh before his figure began to distort.

"To think I made such a miscalculation... You weren't a descendant of the Dragon…" He lamented as his form started to dissipate.

Soon, Gluttony vanished, leaving behind Theodore's body, which was also on the brink of disintegration.

***

The emergence of Theodore's naked form prompted a startled reaction from Eustace, who immediately recognized the man.

This was the same middle-aged individual who had been tormented by the malevolent wraith inhabiting his house.

"Theodore? What did you do?" Eustace initially voiced his confusion, but suddenly, a realization dawned upon him as his gaze fell upon Theodore's footwear.

"Y-you..." Eustace stammered, comprehending that this man had been the wearer of the accursed boots that had served as the wraith's conduit.

'What a stubborn man… Wasting his life like that.' Eustace silently thought as he shook his head.

As Theodore's form continued to disintegrate, the cursed shoes followed suit, their disappearance signifying the eradication of the malevolent threat they had once posed.

However, Eustace recalled another problem…

'Ahh… There's no corpse.' Eustace muttered as he wasn't sure whether he could claim the reward without any form of evidence he could give.

If the shoes remained intact, he could probably use it as well but it disintegrated so quickly.

'I should've bought some recording crystals. Wait, where can I even buy them?' Eustace wryly smiled as he knew that just words alone would not be enough to convince the Arcanist Guild.

"Haha! Why are you looking like that? You learned how to channel your Divinity! You should be happy!" Constance suddenly said as Eustace was thinking of the monetary reward.
