Chapter 825 The Lost Arts
As Chad, Odessa, Jin, Aurion, and the Shadow Immortal's Avatar passed through the portal the two Time Manipulators summoned, Giorgi quickly marked the area where the group landed…
This marked point would be their exit point later on as well. It was actually different to leave this place as Giorgi had to stay in the Human Realm in order to pull them out once they were done in their mission.
"We're here…" Vale's Avatar said as he spread his Divine Sense while the others also did the same and used their various techniques to get a hold of their surroundings.
Soon, they were able to have a decent grasp of the situation of the Celestial Prison Realm…
The realm was shrouded in darkness, and the light from the sky came from the two moons above.
Nonetheless, the place seemed to be difficult to live in as there were heavy storms everywhere.
Just from the time they entered, several streaks of lightning had already hit the ground… However, these lightning strikes illuminated the landscape in a stark and eerie glow.
"So this is the Celestial Prison Realm…" Chad muttered. He didn't really like this name since it implies that only Celestial Beings were imprisoned here. If they were imprisoned for some reason, then it means that they were criminals or, in short, not good individuals.
Chad's heart raced with nervousness, but some parts of it were also filled with excitement, as this was his first time going to another realm!
There was no way he wouldn't feel excited about this situation.
"Incredible… It's truly my honor to be invited here, Sir Immortal…" Odessa said, as she really didn't expect to be included in this mission.
As she inhaled the air, she realized that the air was filled with energy that benefited her Spell Models! They weren't being rejected by the Will of the Realm, but instead, they were being assisted!
She initially thought that they would have to get used to the suppression of the Will, but it seemed that she was thinking too much!
The Celestial Prison Realm was a lot more mysterious than she thought!
Soon, they all noticed the sixteen Towers below the plateau…
"These towers…" Chad muttered as he had already guessed what these Towers were.
"They're indeed the special prison for the Celestial Beings." Jin muttered, as he already knew a lot of things about this realm.
"I'll lead the way…" He added.
As they descended upon a plateau that overlooked a sprawling expanse of 16 towering structures, each of them was on guard in case someone dared to ambush them…
"They looked more and more terrifying as we got closer." Chad muttered.
The towers loomed like monoliths of a forgotten era… Seeing these structures etched against the backdrop of a stormy sky made it seem like it would only appear in the movies.
"Sixteen Towers… I wonder if it had a meaning…" Odessa spoke softly. Her eyes, alight with curiosity and apprehension, surveyed the scene before her.
Aurion, the True Immortal, remained silent as his mission here was actually to protect Vale's Avatar.
Although the one he had to protect was a mere Avatar, the fact that Vale's main body was frozen remains. It means that if the Avatar died here, there would only be one Avatar left, and he couldn't let that happen."
The Shadow Immortal's Avatar, on the other hand, didn't stop using his Divine Sense to survey the surroundings. He knew very well that entering an unknown realm was dangerous, so he had to ensure that Chad and Odessa would be able to escape this place in case a problem occurred. That was why before entering this Realm, he had also prepared dozens of Divine Talismans.
However, as they got closer and they gazed upon the towers that loomed in the distance, a sense of awe and wonder gripped everyone's hearts…
Soon, they read the names of the Towers written in Oardic!
Mystic Tower, Dark Tower, Holy Tower, Summoner Tower, Element Tower, and so on!
"Wait… The towers' names seemed similar to the Arcane Paths… But there are only twelve Arcane Paths! What are the other four?!" Chad immediately voiced out everyone's concern! frёeωebɳovel.com
It was indeed obvious that each Tower represents the Arcane Paths!
They had to quickly find the other four that weren't part of the 12 Paths!

In the meantime, while the expedition group started investigating the Celestial Prison Realm, Aubrey found herself seated at a lavish banquet table with Vale's Avatar, Lisa, and Magnus, partaking in a sumptuous meal that offered meals that she had never seen before...
The table was laden with a feast fit for royalty. It seemed Magnus truly wanted to demonstrate his culinary prowess and show how great he was!
Well, it wasn't every day that they get a 'welcomed' visitor, so he had really gone all out.
As the meal progressed, Vale's Avatar turned his attention to Aubrey, his gaze was filled with curiosity…
"Aubrey, may I inquire as to what led you to pursue a career as a Paranormal Investigator? Your selected branch before was necromancy, if I'm not mistaken… Why did you shift to become a ritualist?" he queried, his tone both interested and respectful.
Aubrey took a moment to collect her thoughts before speaking.
"I just don't like necromancy… It's all thanks to the death of the Headmaster. My shadow returned and I felt that I could somehow do better… Of course, after graduation, I really aimed to be a Paranormal Investigator since I read some things from the Ancient Book that my father bought from an auction… Ahem… You know about my Merchant Family and my father liked to collect things. Well, long story short, I'm searching for a lost legacy… The Lost Arcane Arts," she revealed…
Vale's Avatar and Lisa exchanged a glance of surprise, their curiosity piqued by Aubrey's revelation. "How does the pursuit of the Lost Arcane Arts connect to your role as a Paranormal Investigator?" Vale inquired, his interest piqued…
He knew about the Lost Arcane Arts after all.
