Vale stopped extracting the Elementalist as soon as he passed out. He had no plans of killing this person since he believed that he didn’t deserve to die.
Furthermore, his companions had already noticed something wrong and were rushing to his side. 𝘪𝑎.
‘Oh? Is that an Elemental Spirit?’ Vale muttered after sensing something above him.
Without any hesitation, he used the Spirit Vision to observe it carefully.
Thankfully, his Spirit Vision had already reached the Intermediate Realm, so it allowed him to inspect the Elemental Spirit in a brief moment.
‘A Wind Spirit, huh… Furthermore, it seems to have a wider range than me.’ Vale silently thought as he analyzed the Spirit using his Spell.
Apparently, his Divine Sense and Phantasm State couldn’t properly give him some feedback about this being.
His Divine Sense was most effective if used on humans, while his Phantasm State works perfectly on things or objects. As for the Spirit Vision, it works well on Spiritual Beings or similar beings, which is quite impressive.
‘I wonder how Ashe reacted after realizing that his Spirit Vision Spell Model was gone…’ Vale wondered but he swiftly shook his head to erase his random thoughts.
He saw that the companions of the man he just defeated had already arrived.
“You didn’t escape?” The man, who seemed to be the leader of this group of Elementalists, spoke as he looked at Vale with a hint of vigilance.
He was expecting that this person who wore a demonic mask would escape as soon as he realized he had to deal with three more Elementalists.
The leader then shifted his attention to Reed and was relieved that he was still alive and seemed to have just passed out.
Vale smiled under his masked and replied.
“I was attacked by your companion… Do you think you can just kill anyone as long as they’re alone? Are you a member of some Evil Cult?” He asked with a hint of mockery.
Of course, he knows that the Shockwave Spell that was used to attack him wasn’t meant to kill him. However, Vale needs to exaggerate it to stay on the moral high ground.
As expected, the moment he said this, the female Elementalist immediately responded. “We have no intention of killing you! We just can’t allow you to continue further. You might disturb us in our mission. You should be able to tell that our companion didn’t have any killing intent when he approached you.”
In her mind, she felt infuriated after being accused of being part of an Evil Cult by a man wearing a Demonic Mask!
She should be the one accusing him of being a part of an Evil Cult!
Of course, Vale didn’t mind what she was thinking as he stood closer to the unconscious Elementalist. It is time to interrogate them.
“How can I tell whether someone has killing intent or not? I’m not an expert. Just tell me everything you know about this forest and your mission.” Vale said as his aura suddenly changed.
It was simply his Darkness Manipulation Spell as he gathered the Dark Energy in the surroundings. Surprisingly, this area had an abundant source of Dark Energy. It may not be as rich as the Academy grounds, but it wasn’t bad at all.
Nevertheless, as he gathered this energy, Vale appeared more intimidating as the three Elementalists hesitated whether to fight or cooperate.
In the end, Lester, the leader of the group, decided to reveal what they knew as long as Vale promised not to kill their companion.
It didn’t take long before Vale learned the forest’s secret.
“So it was the Night Flare Grass… What does it do?” Vale asked. It was his first time hearing of this precious grass, but since it was important to Elementalist, it must be something incredible.
Addison, the female Elementalist, decided to answer this question.
“The Night Flare Grass only appears if a Fire Elementalist has gone out of control…”
‘Hmm?’
Vale was confused, but he remained silent.
Seeing that the man was unperturbed, she continued. “If his essence scattered to the Night Ember Grass, it would turn into Night Flare Grass, which can be used to create potions that extend life. As for Elementalists like us, it can strengthen our connection to the Fire Element. Night Flare Grass is also an ingredient to create a rare potion that replenishes our Elemental Energy.”
Vale finally reacted after hearing this.
“It must be expensive then… No wonder you don’t want anyone to discover it.” Vale muttered.
However, he was also thinking about what she said about a Fire Elementalist losing control.
If he wasn’t mistaken, she was referring to their Elemental State.
If the Darkness Path has Phantasm State, the Element Path has Elemental State. Similar to them, if the Elementalist exceeded their limit in their special state, they would have a chance of losing control of their powers and end up being controlled by the natural instinct of an Elemental Being.
“Expensive? A blade of Night Flare Grass is ten times more expensive than the tea leaves used by royalty… Of course, they’re expensive.” Addison replied mockingly as she realized that the person in front of them seemed to like money.
“Very well. I’ll be collecting all the Night Flare Grass. You can head back now.” Vale said as he waved his hand to the Elementalists.
He also felt that the Demonic Mask was already reaching its limit.
‘I didn’t think I could only wear this for 15 minutes. What a shame…’ Vale commented as he turned around to leave.
Apparently, the Demonic Mask and the Demonic Dagger that he acquired from the leader of the Snake Brotherhood have been appraised by Yvaine inside his shadow!
She may not know their proper names, but she learned about their usage and negative effects!
Yvaine may not have the premonition powers like Lotus, but she has a power similar to appraisers!
