Novel Full Chapter 175 Life Strand
Headmaster Jean looked a lot better after seeing a reaction but he wasn’t satisfied. He continued with the other items on the shelf before he finally relaxed…
“Although the light got weaker, all of them seems fine. Is it because of your Incorruptible Body? Was it incompatible with the items here?” Headmaster Jean asked as he looked at Vale curiously.
This time, Vale finally realized why Headmaster Jean reacted like that.
It appears that he detected that the Divinity of the Immortal Fragments had gotten weaker! Thankfully, his Divine Extraction System didn’t fully remove the source of Divinity of these objects.
It only extracted the Divinity it produces.
“Headmaster… I’m unsure about it as well. However, I feel a lot better after making contact with all of these objects.” Vale replied after some hesitation.
Since Headmaster Jean already noticed that something was wrong, Vale would become too suspicious if he remained ignorant.
In the end, he decided to reveal a bit of what he knows.
“You felt a lot better?” Headmaster Jean repeated as he touched his chin in contemplation.
Perhaps because there is no table he can tap, he decided to scratch his chin as a habit.
“That’s correct, Headmaster.” Vale answered as he noticed the Headmaster’s action.
The Headmaster then squinted his eyes as he observed Vale for a few seconds. Then, he searched his coat’s inner pocket and took out a familiar blue crystal.
“Catch this.” Headmaster Jean said as he tossed the crystal to Vale.
Vale then caught the crystal and found it familiar.
It is a Spirit Converging Crystal. Furthermore, it seems to have a higher quality than the ones he had seen before.
“Oh…” Vale nodded as he realized what the Headmaster wants.
Since he felt a lot better, the Headmaster believes that he probably got an increase or enhancement in his Spirit. With the help of the Spirit Converging Crystal, he would be able to know whether his Spirit Strands had increased.
Vale then held the crystal without any words and waited for the result.
Soon, 25 Spirit Strands appeared on the crystal. The 26th Strand hasn’t developed yet since he was still missing the 0.83 points.
“Hmm… I remember that you have 25 Spirit Strands on your first day of class… It didn’t increase, huh…” Headmaster Jean said after seeing the result.
It seems it was true that Vale’s talent was already exhausted.
“Y-yeah… I guess it’s difficult to increase them with its current number.”
“That’s true… You can keep that Spirit Converging Crystal. It has 80 Strand Limit…”
“Thank you, Headmaster.” Vale thanked him as he kept it in his pocket. He wouldn’t refuse a free gift so he didn’t hesitate at all.
Furthermore, he knows that this Headmaster is quite rich so he doesn’t need to be shy in these matters. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚
Headmaster Jean then went silent for a moment as he seem to be considering something. After a while, he finally spoke.
“I’m sure that you received some sort of benefit from these items on the shelf. Here, try this crystal this time.”
Headmaster Jean said as he tossed a different crystal after some hesitation.
“What’s this, Headmaster?” Vale curiously asked. He had never seen something like this before.
“It is Life Converging Crystal. Just hold it for a while like the Spirit Converging Crystal. It allows us to see your Life Strands. However, Life Converging Crystals can only be used by the person who used them first. This is why we don’t normally test the students in the Academy so it’s normal that you don’t know about it.”
“Ah? There was something like that?” Vale was shocked as he looked at the red crystal in his hand.
Since this item can only be used by the same person, then it is no wonder the Academy wouldn’t provide a free test to determine the student’s Life Strand…
“Is this expensive, Headmaster?” Vale curiously asked as he waited for the result to come out.
If he would make a guess, this would allow him to detect his Vitality Points.
“Well… They’re expensive but you don’t have to worry, I’m giving them to you for free.”
“Thank you, Professor… Can this crystal be purchased by Contribution Points?” Vale asked after seeing the Headmaster’s reaction.
“Yes… At the moment, this crystal is worth 2 Contribution Points if I’m not mistaken. Right, you can always visit the Exchange Hall to see the list of items you can exchange there… That way, you can also find something that you may want to save for…”
Vale nodded as that should be similar to the price of Regular Mystical Items. It is quite expensive but not too much considering this item should be quite useful since not everyone has a System like him that allows him to monitor his attributes.
Soon, white strands started appearing from the red crystal…
As soon as 8 Strands appeared on the crystal, Headmaster Jean went silent as he looked at Vale in shock. This shouldn’t be a Strand that a 14 or 15-year-old student should have!
As far as he knows only Arcane Practitioners around 40 years old would have 8 Life Strand!
Vale should only have 3 or 4 Life Strands at most!
However, it didn’t end there… The Life Strand continued appearing until it stopped at 13 Strands!
“W-what’s going on?” Headmaster Jean asked in shock. He was truly stunned by the result that Vale had shown!
“Headmaster, is there something wrong?” Vale asked curiously. He had no idea about the other’s Vitality so he doesn’t have anyone to compare with.
He knows that his Vitality is high but he’s unsure how big was the difference between a Normal Arcane Arts Practitioner and someone like him with a system.
“Vale, you have the same Life Strand as me.” Headmaster Jean answered with a hint of excitement in his voice.
After realizing that Vale has incredible vitality, he decided to just accept it and think of Vale as a precious talent of their Faction!
“Ahh…” Vincent was similarly shocked before he looked at the Headmaster cautiously.
They actually have the same Life Strand! This might cause a problem for him.
“Haha! Don’t worry… This is our secret… I’m sure that this has something to do with your Master’s research. I hope that you get even stronger. Once that happened, the Malefic Branch would be accepted as a special branch in our Faction… maybe in less than 10 years or so.”
