Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

630 Vampire vs Sorcerer ( Part 1 )

"Should I intervene?" Vale pondered aloud while observing Lisa summon her Thralls to obstruct the path of the six cloaked individuals charging toward the castle.

A total of six Thralls also stood in the way of the assailants, acting as a formidable barrier.

However, as Vale contemplated taking action, he realized that the six figures were already casting spells with the intent to attack Lisa directly.

It was obvious that they harbored no intention of engaging in discourse or halting their advance!

Although Lisa had gotten really strong after becoming a Vampire, facing six first-class Arcanists would still be difficult, especially now that she was in an open place.

Furthermore, he felt that the Magic Zones of these Arcanists were higher than Lisa's. If that were the case, a combat against six of them would be challenging for her.

As Vale was thinking of assisting her by sending a few Moonlight Specters, he was suddenly met with Lisa's telepathic voice.

"I will handle them alone... I want to try something…" she conveyed, seemingly aware of Vale's inclination to offer assistance.

"Has she mastered a new Vampire spell?" Vale wondered, taken aback by Lisa's audacity.

Nevertheless, he acquiesced and permitted Lisa to confront the adversaries without his help.

"Exercise caution... If you find yourself unable to endure, seek refuge within the castle's protective barrier." Vale advised.

"I understand... I will do so." Lisa affirmed as she activated a spell akin to her Veil of Darkness. As the Spell took effect, an ominous darkness, resembling a shroud of black fog, began to unfurl.

It spread so quickly and covered the six cloaked individuals together with the six Thralls. Because of this, the enemies' spells that targeted the Thralls missed completely!

"Oh~ Can she now conjure a Dark Miasma?"

Faith's exclamation was heard from Vale's window. It seemed that she had also come out to see the uninvited visitors.

"Dark Miasma? May I ask what kind of Spell that is, Miss Faith?" Vale inquired while leaning against the window to address the mysterious Half-Spirit.

Without so much as a glance in his direction, Faith responded, "It is not a spell exclusive to Vampires... It is a specialized Arcane spell accessible to practitioners of Dark Magic and Mystic Arts. This miasma easily devours Arcane Energies not aligned with those two Arcane paths…" She explained while crossing her arms as she observed the unfolding confrontation.

'It devours Arcane Energies? And I could even cover a large area?! Isn't that scarier than my Extraction System?!' Vale thought as he realized why Lisa felt so confident just now!

In the meantime, when the messengers of the Church of the Divine Sorcerer noticed the presence of the Vampire lurking in the castle of the Marquis' benefactor, they didn't hesitate to engage in combat.

"Hmph! Mosley and I will take care of the Thralls! The others will target the Vampire!" Lynn, the leader of the group, commanded.

He may not be the strongest in the six, but he had better support spells that could make this battle easier.

However, before they could even separate, a dark mist enveloped the forest, obscuring the vision of the six sorcerers.

They all stopped running as they felt a chill in their bones. Their Magic Zones were a mess as they sensed the presence of the Vampire and her thralls everywhere!

That's right, they could no longer rely on their Magic Zones to find their enemies!

They knew they had to act fast, or they would be overwhelmed by the Vampire's power.

"We need to complete the protection ritual!" Lynn shouted as he couldn't find a quick solution to the problem.

All of them moved with haste as they quickly formed a circle. They held each other's hands and chanted in a strange language.

It wasn't Oardic, Heumish, or Soineti…

However, if Vale could hear them, he would certainly recognize that they were using Ieveda, an ancient language.

Whom~

Soon, a faint glow emerged from their bodies, forming a protective barrier around them. They hoped to repel the Dark Miasma and buy some time to counterattack.

Unfortunately, this Corruption Protection Barrier only blocked about 5 meters around them! It wasn't enough to find their target!

Nevertheless, it provided them a sense of security since they would at least see the spells coming at them!

"This strange fog wouldn't last long… There's no way that Vampire could spend so much energy to make this last for more than 5 minutes." Lynn said as he could sense the immense energy that was used to summon the miasma.

"I think that fog had eaten away some of our energy or maybe even our life force… Luckily, we acted quickly…"

"That Vampire is weird… This isn't the end. Stay focused!"

The other sorcerer said as they looked around to find any subtle movement from the fog.

Lisa smirked as she saw their futile attempt.

She even heard their conversation.

Nevertheless, she knew their barrier was no match for her Dark Miasma, which could easily devour any Arcane Energy that was not from the Dark or Mystic paths. Well, even if they were in those paths, her miasma could still devour them, but it would be slower.

She then decided to test their limits and see how long they could last.

'Since this is a new spell… I want to see how good or bad this is... Please try to struggle…' Lisa thought as her red eyes started to glow.

It was a signal for her Thralls to attack from different directions! She wanted to use their speed and strength to break through the barrier while she herself stayed behind, preparing to unleash one of her powerful spells.

Eeekk!

The thralls obeyed her command, charging at the sorcerers with their fangs and claws.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

They met with resistance, as the barrier was not easily broken.

Of course, the sorcerers fought back, using their spells to fend off the Thralls.

One of them conjured a ball of fire and threw it at a thrall, setting him ablaze. Another one created a blade of wind and sliced a thrall's arm off. A third one summoned a bolt of lightning and electrocuted a thrall. The other three used similar spells, injuring the remaining thralls.

They were actually Elementalists who were working for the Church!
