In Pludenn Street, lthorn City.
"This is where he disappeared?" Clare asked after looking around the dark alley where rats and various bags of trash could be seen.
The sll was quite terrible, but she was completely unaffected and kept observing the surroundings.
"Yes… The Tracking Mark of my Divine Sense has disappeared here. I can't understand how he did that." Teresa muttered in a soft voice as she tried to recall how she sensed the disappearance of her tracking mark.
The mont she felt that the Tracking Mark had disappeared, she quickly tried to reconnect with it using various thods. However, she failed to do so, and she could only contact the detective she hired to follow Clovis' movents.
Unfortunately, the detective was also clueless. He had stopped monitoring Clovis after around 11 in the evening, which was included in his contract with the Untainted Sentinel.
"Did he receive so help? Who can even remove a Tracking Mark made by the Divine Sense? I heard that even the Pontiff would have a hard ti doing that…" Clare comnted as her interest in Clovis just doubled because of this incident.
She already had a feeling that Clovis was quite special since he could use Blessed Healing at such a young age.
Now that he was able to remove the Tracking Mark as well, she couldn't help but think about the young man's teacher. Perhaps, his teacher wasn't a Bishop but a Pontiff instead?
"We have to find him… I think that person is hiding a huge secret." Teresa comnted as she couldn't believe soone capable of removing her Tracking Mark was hiding in the city without their knowledge.
This city is protected by the five prominent churches and seven of the twelve Elite Forces of the Twelve Arcane Paths.
An Arcanist capable of removing the Untainted Sentinel's Divine Sense mark shouldn't exist within the city.
"I understand. However, don't you think that we should report this to the higher-ups first? It's not like we can find that person with just the two of us. We need manpower to do this…" Clare suggested as she also realized the significance of this matter.
"Yes. I'll report this to the Church while you go ahead and inform the Sentinels."
"Alright… Are we going to issue an arrest warrant for him?"
"No need. We can't just make Clovis and his master our enemies. It will just cause so unnecessary trouble. Just inform them what happened, and they'll know what to do." Teresa instructed, and this ti, Clare no longer asked questions as she left the dark alley.
Clovis' disappearance had ignited their desire to find out his secret.
***
In the anti, the person they were looking for was celebrating his recent extraction.
"Incredible! Another Spell Model!" Vale exclaid in excitent after seeing the notification he got. Aside from getting attribute points, the Spell Model that he got was like a jackpot for him.
He still had several weeks in his sumr break and he already gained so much. Perhaps, once he returned to the Academy, he could already deal with those students within the top 20 or even top 10 of the Academy's Elite Rankings!
Of course, this was rely his guess considering the number of Spells he had recorded.
Anyway, since he got the very useful Traceless Shift from the previous Evil Creature, he was looking forward to the Spell he extracted.
He imdiately checked his Neutral Ability to find the Spell…
[ Neutral Ability: Extrasensory Perception Spell Lv6, Traceless Shift Lv7 Lightspeed Lv0 ]
Vale had no idea what Lightspeed was ant to do, so he swiftly checked the Spell Model to understand it.
The Spell Model doesn't look so complicated, and it only took 1 Spell Light in his body. Nevertheless, this leaves him with only 8 Spell Lights available.
Well, there is also an incomplete Spell Light, but it doesn't really matter. He knows that he'll still have a chance of extracting Spell Lights sowhere.
Anyway, he soon realized what the Lightspeed was used for, and he couldn't help but joyfully laugh.
"I didn't expect to get this from an Evil Creature. I should be hunting them every now and then." Vale said in excitent.
Finally, he can already say goodbye to his Mortal Rank Mystical Items. He could probably sell the Nymph Scale and Murloc's Gem at this point because this Lightspeed Spell was a Movent Spell!
There was no way he'd let it stay at the Elentary Realm as he was prepared to upgrade it up to the Advanced Realm in one go.
However, a familiar cold voice interrupted him.
"I don't think you should be hunting them. You're lucky that the ones you found were pathetic creatures."
Vale was shocked hearing her voice as this woman had escaped his senses until she spoke!
She was already about 10 ters from him, and it was a huge blunder for him!
'Soone who can escape from my Phantasm State's detection?'
Vale imdiately recalled the woman he had t in the laboratory before while he retreated away from the voice.
"Since you're already here, I guess you already killed Larkin…" Cressida said as she looked at Vale with a mysterious smile.
"Hmm?" He was right. It was indeed Cressida. However, her words confused him montarily.
Vale was baffled by such a greeting as he carefully looked at the beautiful but ghost-like woman before him.
"How did you know about my matter with Larkin?" He curiously asked.
He was sure that Larkin didn't leave any mark on him that would say he killed the man. He couldn't help but wonder if she used so premonition spell or sothing similar. Or perhaps, she has been observing him ever since he arrived at lthorn City!
This idea sent a shiver up his spine since he had never detected her in the city.
Luckily, he seed to be overthinking as Cressida replied with a calm voice. "I've t Larkin before, and I know his personality. Aside from that, Maya ntioned sothing to . She said that you defeated him and had him expelled in the process. Do you know that your shadow won't be returned if you get expelled from the Academy? He was definitely seething with anger as soon as he learned about his expulsion. If that happened to , I'd also kill the person who did it to ."
