"Vale… I think something was off with this guy…" Lisa said as she looked at the masked man trying to kill them.
She doesn't know the Thunder Emperor, but she knows that he doesn't act like a normal Elementalist.
"What's wrong?" Vale asked while controlling his Ghost Hands to block the spells of the Thunder Emperor.
His Light Absorption was apparently infective, so he had to change his tactics.
He even sneakily used his Shadow Soldier Spell, but it didn't work at all. It feels as if the Thunder Emperor was immune to any Dark Arts. Even the man's shadow couldn't be manipulated!
"It feels like he's a puppet… No, maybe not. I think he has the same Aura as the Variants, so I'm confused." Lisa answered, but she wasn't sure either.
Vale nodded as he could understand what she was trying to say. Unfortunately, the Thunder Emperor's unusual behavior doesn't seem important at the moment.
Boom!
Suddenly, the building of the Academy started shaking after an explosion. It seems that the battle outside was already reaching its peak.
Vale couldn't check the situation outside as he continued to fight against the Thunder Emperor together with Lisa.
'So his lightning magic was really from the staff. He's not using any lightning spells anymore. This should become a lot easier.' Vale thought as he watched the Thunder Emperor continuously use his Fire Spellsm,
Aside from this, Vale also noticed how the Thunder Emperor was really acting strange since he was also not speaking or showing any emotion and simply attacking them relentlessly.
Vale used his Ghost Hand Spell, hoping to restrain him or slow him down. The Ghost Hands successfully grabbed the Thunder Emperor… However, after being hit by Fire Spells, his Ghost Hands started dissipating one by one.
'It failed… Touchless Extraction is still too much.' Vale silently thought as he considered how to end this battle.
He shifted his attention to Lisa, who also started casting her Dark Spells. Unfortunately, she only has Elementary Realm Spells, so they were pretty useless.
On the other hand, the Thunder Emperor used his Fire Spells like fireballs, firewalls, or firestorms. He tried to burn Vale and Lisa or blast them away.
Unfortunately, if Vale felt that his Darkness Manipulation could no longer protect them, he would use his Spell Dispersion to destroy all the Spells that the Emperor or the Mountain Bandit was throwing.
The three of them continued fighting, creating a fierce and chaotic battle. The hallway was filled with fire, shadows, and ghostly hands that would appear from time to time when Vale's Ghost Hand Cooldown was over.
"Vale! This guy isn't just strong! He's really immune to Dark Arts!" Lisa exclaimed after seeing how the enemy could basically ignore any Dark Spells that would hit his body.
She saw how Vale used his Corrupted Chains Spell and Dusk Imprisonment while his Ghost Hands would grab the Emperor's feet, but they were really ineffective!
The Thunder Emperor would just burst into fire, and the Dark Spells would disappear!
Vale jolted as he realized that Lisa was already panicking,
"Ahh…"
Honestly, he had already started having some fun since he could finally use some of his lower-level Spells against someone without worrying about the consequences.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm It was a good thing that Lisa didn't question him why he had so many Dark Spells! She probably missed it since she was too focused on the battle.
"Just continue casting your Spells if your Spell Light still has some energy left. It's a perfect time to increase your mastery." Vale said while he remained focused on using his Ghost Hand or even his Spectral Hands to try the Touchless Extraction.
That's right. He was also using Spectral Hands to touch the Thunder Emperor at an angle where Lisa couldn't see it.
"Just continue… Alright…" Lisa agreed without any qualms. Although she felt confused that Vale even had the thought of increasing his Spell Mastery in this situation, she didn't question him as she trusted her classmate.
'Since it's you… There shouldn't be any problem.' She commented in her mind as she also noticed that Vale still looked confident in their situation.
She may not know that Vale had rescued Philip in the Murton Castle, but she was able to make her own assumptions after searching for him when he was away. Furthermore, she noticed how Vale returned at the same time when Philip was rescued and brought back to the Academy.
The others may not have noticed it, but since she was paying attention to Vale's actions, she was able to make a rough guess.
As expected, she soon took note of Vale's excited expression while fighting against the Thunder Emperor. It seemed that something good happened.
'He's not struggling! I'm the only one desperately attacking this masked guy. I'm even being protected while fighting… Just how strong is he? Why is the difference between our strengths too huge?' Lisa sighed internally as she saw Vale finish the enemy off.
She didn't see it clearly, but Vale simply waved his hand, and the masked enemy collapsed to the ground like a puppet that had its string broken.
"Whew… That was tough…" Vale said with an exaggerated voice.
Lisa wryly smiled as she shook her head. "Yeah, that was tough."
Since Vale wanted to make it seem that he struggled in that fight, she decided not to point this out and agreed with him.
"Let's take a look at his face." Vale said as he approached the Thunder Emperor. Of course, he wasn't really interested in the criminal's face.
Just now, he succeeded in doing his Touchless Extraction!
Although only Energy Points were extracted at that time, he still felt that it was a great achievement.
Now, he wanted to see whether he could still Extract the man normally.
[ Living Human has been discovered. Would you like to start the extraction? ]

Vale answered in his mind.
