"I believe they've encountered an enemy" Lisa suddenly remarked, her gaze fixed in the direction from which the kingdom's airship had departed.

Vale and the others, puzzled by her statement, turned to her with curiosity.

"The Kingdom's Airships have fallen victim to a disaster... They must have crossed paths with some banditsNo, maybe it's the Rebel Army" Lisa continued as she guessed the identity of the assailants.

"Wow, I'm not surprised that they encountered the rebel army. I'm more surprised that you were able to know that. Can you now reach a distance of more than 10 kilometers in your Magic Zone?" Chad inquired, clearly astonished.

He could barely reach the 100-meter mark in his Magic Zone, and that was already during his Ghost King Body's stimulation. Without that state, he could only reach about 40 meters, and that was already very impressive for his age.

"Absolutely not. I left three Familiars aboard their airship. Each can send me a message once, but it will cost them their lives. Two of them managed to relay a message, but the third perished without being able to send a message at all" Lisa explained.

Vale nodded gently upon hearing this.

Regardless, he didn't attach much importance to their predicament. They were still considered his enemies, and it would be advantageous if the blame for their potential annihilation fell upon the rebels.

'It's clearly their fault for creating Artificial Humans' Vale mused as he continued on his way to his room.

It was previously Magnus's room, but over the past week, there had been many arrangements within the castle.

Some rooms where Magnus conducts inhumane experiments were immediately cleared out. They were destroyed, and Vale didn't care about that research either.

It was the same for Faith and the others who weren't interested in cruel alchemy that involved the body parts of humans and other beasts.

***

As soon as Vale returned to his room, he immediately opened his Attribute Panel to see the progress he had made.

He had extracted 195 corpses just now and made a thorough extraction of the Commander of the Kingdom's Airship.

He certainly had a great harvest today!

[ Corrupted Divinity Points: 46 ]

"It increased that much?" Vale couldn't help but smile as soon as he saw the incredible increase in his Energy Points.

At this point, he decided not to hold back any longer! He decided to get some Perfect Realm Spells!

[ Consume 768 energy points to improve Traceless Shift? ]

"Yes!"

[ Consume 1,536 energy points to improve Traceless Shift? ]

"Yes!"

[ Traceless Shift has now reached the maximum level. ] Just like that, Vale felt the changes in his spell lights. Then, he checked the Traceless Shift's Spell Model and confirmed that it had completely changed!

He only spent 2,304 Energy Points to obtain his second Perfect Realm Spell!

Of course, he didn't stop at that and decided to increase the level of his new Fusion Spell.

It was the Fiend's Wrath, and it was the fusion of the Feral Fury, Bear's Strength, and Evil Hand.

They were spells from Beast Arts and Spirit Arts. However, it appears that those two Beast Arts contributed more to the fusion, so the fusion's result remained in his Beast Arts List.

[ Consume 512 energy points to improve Fiend's Wrath? ]

"Yes!"

[ Consume 1,024 energy points to improve Fiend's Wrath? ]

[ Consume 2,048 energy points to improve Fiend's Wrath? ]

After the last upgrade, he finally got this last message.

[ Fiend's Wrath has now reached the maximum level. ] This time, he spent a total of 3,584 energy points to reach the level 10!

Vale then made a quick check on his Energy Points.

[ Available Energy: 28,162 ]

Seeing that he still had plenty of points, he paused momentarily to consider his plans. 'I guess leaving 10,000 points isn't bad. After all, I'm still not done with my Spell Fusions and need some extra points to level them up if they're good.'

With this in mind, Vale decided to max out the Cursed Flame, Extrasensory Perception, Meridian Access, and Holy Smite.

Vale spent 3,024 Energy Points for the Cursed Flame Level 4 to reach Level 10. Then, the ESP Level 9 Spell took 2,560 Energy Points to reach the level 10. The amount was quite low compared to the Meridian Access Level 9, in which he spent 4,096 Energy Points to level it up from Level 9 to 10. After all, the base price of Meridian Access was 8 points compared to the ESP Spell, with only 5 points. Lastly, he spent 4,032 Energy Points to upgrade the Holy Smite Level 4 to Level 10!

From this batch, he spent a total of 13,712 Energy Points!

Then, Vale checked his remaining points.

[ Available Energy: 14,450 ]

"This should be good enough" Vale muttered as he could no longer decide which spell he should upgrade to its limit.

After completing all the upgrades to his Spell Models, Vale began to feel uneasy. The sudden alterations to his Spell Models seemed to have an effect that caused dizziness... It was difficult to articulate, but it felt as though the Spell Models were slightly inflamed within his body.

"I suppose pushing them to their maximum level was a bit excessive. I should have paced the upgrades out over several days" Vale lamented wearily as he reclined on his bed. All he wanted to do now was to relax.

Fortunately, by the following day, he felt completely revitalized! The previous discomfort had dissipated, and it appeared that his upgraded Spell Models had settled perfectly.

Now, he was looking forward to enjoying a breakfast prepared by Magnus, but at that moment, Lisa arrived with an alarming report.

"The rebel army's airship is outside... We've been waiting for you to wake up."
