'Another person who can see through my shadow?' Vale squinted his eyes after hearing her words.
"So it was like that… I didn't know that Professor Shirley has a younger sister." He replied with a nod. He wasn't sure what this lady wanted, so he decided not to be too friendly.
"Well, now you know… I'm sorry for interrupting your study. I was just surprised at the Dark Energy surrounding your shadow. It is a different Dark Spirit, right? You're really talented."
Vale smiled and didn't answer. Almost everyone who watched his battle against the Slender Zombie knows that his Dark Spirit was killed in that battle. They may not have seen how it happened but they must've felt the disappearance of the Dark Spirit's aura at that time.
"I've never seen a Dark Spirit before. Do you mind if I ask to meet your Dark Spirit? In exchange, I'll let you see my Contracted Ghost Spirit… or whatever you want in exchange." Felisa continued seeing that Vale was losing his interest.
Of course, Vale doesn't want to waste his time since he spent 1 Contribution Point to enter this place. He can't waste it chatting with another girl.
He didn't think for too long and agreed with her.
"I don't mind it… The Dark Spirit doesn't mind it as well… However, I'd like to add a condition, I need to see some corpses…"
"Eh? Corpses?" Felisa was a bit flustered by the sudden request. She thought that Vale would rather spend some time with her...
However, they are in the Dark Arts Academy and almost all the students here weren't normal, unlike her. After some thought, she still agreed as she had some sources of corpses anyway...
"Alright. My Club is keeping a few bodies for experiments… However, they're corpses of ordinary humans and not Arcane Practitioners. Is that alright?"
"That's fine… Let's do it on another day. I'll look for you." Vale replied as he shifted his attention back to the second book on his table. It's been a while since he extracted some corpses so he didn't mind whether they are ordinary or not.
Seeing that Vale doesn't want to talk anymore, Felisa couldn't help but sigh as she also continued with her study… It feels as if her charm was completely useless in front of this first-year student.
'Ahhh… I forgot I'm wearing a mask. No wonder he didn't get attracted.' Felisa shook her head as she realized this.
She knows that male students would always want to talk to her as much as possible. Vale shouldn't be an exception, so she heaved a sigh of relief after recalling that her mask was on.
Of course, Vale doesn't care about her thoughts as he opened the book titled Analysis of the Planar Spells.
Similar to what happened in the other book, a trace of the book's wisdom entered his consciousness, allowing him to enter a state of immersion.
He read the entire book once again and it lasted for another 2 hours. The moment he checked his surroundings, he realized that all the other students have already left.
They may have taken a break outside, or their time was up…
'Planar Spells… How mysterious… No wonder the senior suggested this book.' Vale sighed as he looked at the book in front of him.
The male student at the counter suggested this book after Vale asked about the otherworldly beings. It was odd at first.
He was confused why the senior suggested a book regarding an analysis of particular spells when he was asking for the otherworldly beings. However, after reading the book, he realized that the Spell Models of these Planar Spells don't just require the help of these Otherworldly Beings to be recorded, they needed to be in the place where the Otherworldly Beings can be found.
If it wasn't done in this particular place, the recording of the Planar Spell may be successful, but the power it contains wouldn't be at the same level as the other Planar Spells recorded in this special place.
It seems that the place itself has some sort of power that even the current Arcane Researchers weren't aware of… There were theories about how it can be replicated by some Magic Circles but there isn't any evidence to back it up.
Finally, Vale also learned what the Planar Spells are…
In his conclusion, the Planar Spells were close to the otherworldly powers and perhaps they were the Divine Arts that he was looking for!
"So Planar Spells are considered to be the peak of all spells. It's above the Tier 3 Spells and as long as you obtained the help of the Otherworldly Beings, you can learn them even if you're just starting your journey as an Arcane Practitioner. How awesome was that…" Vale muttered.
If the requirement was simply getting help from them, then even a ten-year-old Practitioner might have a Planar Spell in their arsenal… It would be quite scary to face someone with such a strong spell.
According to the books, the Planar Spells could summon a meteor from the heavens, reconstruct someone from the ashes, resurrect someone from death, change the terrain through an earthquake, or call tribulation lightning from the sky.
Vale wanted any of these spells!
"I still don't know any Spell Models of these Planar Spells… I hope I can find them here." Vale muttered as he stood up to check on the other books.
Then, he recalled the student at the counter… He then went to his side and asked if he knew about any books that had Planar Spell models.
Luckily, the student knows about these Spells Models…
"Ahem… Let me remind you that these Spell Models can't be recorded, no matter how talented you are. There is no Magic Circle, Ritual, or Darkness Pill you can use to aid you with your recording." The student reminded Vale after telling him the location of the books where samples of Planar Spell Models can be found.
"Don't worry, senior. I won't be attempting to record them. I'm just curious how they look and how they differ from the Dark Spells that we're currently using…" Vale answered.
Although the student at the counter was still doubtful, he decided to just leave it be and accepted his answer.
Meanwhile, as soon as Vale saw the Spell Models in the book he just opened, he couldn't help but feel impressed.
