"Are we there yet?" Vale asked Faith while looking at her graceful figure figure from behind.

At this time, he was still unable to understand how Faith could see the surroundings and how it felt like she had unlimited duration in Magic Zone.

Apparently, it had already been two weeks following their departure from the Vampire Castle, and Faith finally stumbled upon a new lead that could lead them to Lisa and Chad.

"We're getting closer However, it might take the whole day if we continue like this. What's your movement spell's mastery?" Faith asked as she turned her head as if she was eyeing Vale.

"It's in the Advanced Realm... I'm not using it yet." Vale replied as he shifted his attention to Pearl.

"It's the same for me." Pearl added.

Faith nodded in acknowledgment. She didn't seem surprised as she had just accepted that young practitioners like them could have several advanced realm spells.

"Alright... Try to keep up with me. Use your Movement Spells now," Faith urged as she activated her own enchantment.

The moment she did so, her form seemed to transform into that of a ghost!

Her speed became nothing short of incredible, and most remarkably, she effortlessly phased through trees and rocks! Nothing could impede her while she remained in this otherworldly state.

Vale couldn't conceal his astonishment at the astonishing speed displayed before him.

"Is that the Ghost Walk in the Perfect Realm? That looks so incredible..." He pondered aloud.

Recollecting that the Ghost Walk was primarily purposed for combat, designed for short bursts of movement, he had never deemed it necessary. Instead, he'd rely on his exceptional Agility to cover close distances in battle.

He felt that it would be better than wasting a Spell Light for a short burst movement spell.

Observing Faith grow more distant, Vale and Pearl swiftly followed suit.

Vale invoked his Lightspeed Spell, augmented by his unmatched Agility, propelling himself to catch up with Faith. Meanwhile, Pearl's eyes radiated with an azure glow, enveloping her in crackling static electricity before she surged forward.

Whoossh~

In the blink of an eye, she drew level with the pair and maintained her velocity to keep pace with them.

'These two are comparable to graduates in terms of movement speed. Amazing' Faith silently thought as she was also monitoring the two's movements while tracing Chad's Ghost King Body

Indeed The reason why Faith could sense Chad's whereabouts was thanks to Chad's mastery of Ghost King Body. A physique that only Spiritual Beings or Undead Creatures could typically learn.

As they continued to travel for more than half an hour, Faith decided to take a rest as she found a spot to wait for the cooldown of their Spells.

"Let's rest for 15 minutes" Faith said as she stopped on a nearby rock formation.

"Hmm Did you select this spot to deal with those Evil Creatures?" Vale suddenly asked as he looked ahead.

"Oh"

Faith felt a bit surprised since the location of those Evil Creatures was about 270 meters! That was incredibly far already!

There was no way a fourth-year student was capable of doing that.

Faith suppressed her astonishment as she nodded at Vale.

"Yes, I'm planning to take care of them No matter what, they're someone else's corpse possessed by an Evil Spirit. We should free them or put them to rest." Faith said.

"Alright... I'll take care of them. It won't take long," Vale replied confidently.

He then gestured to Pearl to stay and take a rest before he dashed forward to confront the trio of Malevolent Entities positioned about 270 meters away.

Despite not being able to see them directly, his Magic Zone keenly detected their presence, and they seemed to be quite injured.

They must've fought against someone and had fled in this direction.

'This should be quick.'

As he approached, the three Evil Creatures pivoted towards him, revealing their eerie appearance.

Each entity bore a peculiar visage, with gnarled, obsidian-hued features twisted into grotesque, malevolent expressions.

Their eyes glowed with an eerie, crimson light, exuding an intense aura of malice.

They looked sinister as shadowy tendrils extended from their forms, surrounding them in an aura of darkness that seemed to warp the very air around them.

'These guys looked strong' Vale commented in his mind as he noticed that these creatures had horns on their heads.

Without hesitation, these Evil Creatures rushed towards Vale with an intimidating roar!

Graaa!

They seemed so delighted and couldn't wait to tear him apart!

"Come!" Vale taunted as he wanted them to get nearer. Although his Spells could reach them already, it would always be stronger if they were nearer.

With a swift and practiced motion, he soon unleashed his Chain of Souls.

The dark chains appeared from the darkness around them, and before they could react, the chains had already started coiling them, binding them in an otherworldly embrace, restraining their movements, and sapping their malevolent strength.

'That's easy'

They tried removing the chains by brute force, and they could certainly succeed if Vale had just watched them destroy the chains.

Seizing the moment, Vale conjured his Shadow Soldiers. In a few moments, shadowy apparitions materialized around the Creatures.

These otherworldly warriors encircled the entities, but this time, they didn't manifest their dark blades.

"Hold them down" Vale ordered.

With seamless coordination, the Shadow Soldiers pressed upon the entities, further subduing their resistance and enveloping them in a shroud of spectral suppression.

"Don't resist I want to extract you all with your full strength intact." Vale said as he knew that these Evil Creatures have Spirit Arts or Neutral Spells.

It must be remembered that his Traceless Shift was taken from an Evil Creature. There was no way he would allow such a creature to be unextracted!

As their movements gradually waned, Vale advanced purposefully.

Vale then approached each entity, his touch invoking the Extraction process.

One by one, Vale extracted their attributes, malevolent energies, Spell Models, and drew out the essence...
