Novel Full Chapter 357 Treasure Chest
The Hermit, or the Magician’s name was Katharina Carlisle. She doesn’t seem to have any nicknames, so he couldn’t help but feel confused. He couldn’t recall her name being mentioned in the History Class they’d studied.
For a Mystic Arts Practitioner who could manipulate time, Vale knew that her name must be widely spread in the past.
It was unfortunate, but perhaps the missing fragments of her memories could answer his confusion.
In any case, as he absorbed the memories, he realized something even more amazing.
The Hermit had hidden a powerful artifact called the Temporal Timepiece, which was rumored to amplify Time Manipulation abilities to unimaginable levels. The location of this Artifact remained a mystery, and only those who possessed the deepest understanding of time magic could unlock its secrets.
In short, even if Vale gets this Artifact, he wouldn’t be able to use it unless he had the talent that was needed.
‘Wait… This looks like…’
Although the chain was different and there was a vibrant glow that was missing, Vale could see the similarities between his Golden Pocketwatch and the Temporal Timepiece in Katharina’s Memories!
Vale’s heart started beating faster as he realized this… He already guessed that his Transmigration was related to that pocketwatch…
Perhaps it was Katharina’s Temporal Timepiece? Did she obtain it from the Paragon? How did she even die in the first place? Furthermore, why was she inside this Dark Soul Tower together with other ‘normal’ corpses?
Vale had so many questions that couldn’t be answered.
In the end, he really had to quicken the energy recovery of that pocketwatch.
Although he probably doesn’t have the talent to wield this type of Forbidden Arts, the prospect of harnessing the power of the Temporal Timepiece ignited a fire within him.
Unfortunately, there was only one Katharina Carlisle that could give him such a clue… All his other extractions had barely given him valuable memories.
‘Should I visit her cave where she trained for decades?’ Vale thought as he finished his extractions with the memory of the Dark Soul Tower’s Guard, who tried to steal something from the Tower and was caught red-handed.
After confirming that he had extracted everyone, he finally shifted his attention to the Treasure Chest on the Third Floor.
Vale cautiously approached it and even covered himself with an Arcane Armor just to be safe.
Clank!
Vale opened the treasure chest and confirmed that it was safe. There were three scrolls and two crystals.
He didn’t have to open it and knows they contain knowledge he wouldn’t easily get in the Academy.
‘Are the Professors the ones filling these Treasure Chest to encourage their students?’ Vale thought.
“Ahh… Perhaps a Student Club is managing this Tower and putting these crystals and scrolls?” Vale muttered as he checked the crystals first.
These crystals could immediately inject information into his brain, so it was quite easier to check them first.

Incomplete Planar Spell Model: Aurora’s Embrace ( Third Part )
Vale wryly smiled after getting the information inside. The last or the Fourth Part was still missing, and he could probably get it on the fourth floor.
Of course, this Planar Spell couldn’t be learned just by anyone after getting a complete Spell Model… Nevertheless, it can still be valuable in terms of research to strengthen the Spell Models or even recreate the Spells with a weaker version.
With a sigh, Vale continued checking the scrolls. The previous scroll he opened contained an incomplete Forbidden Spell called Dark Eye Sacrifice. He couldn’t help but look forward to the content of these scrolls.
Vale cautiously unrolled the first scroll, his eyes widening as he read the content inscribed upon it. It was written in Oardic so he didn’t have trouble reading it.
This scroll contained the knowledge of a sinister spell known as “Eclipse of Desolation.” There was even a complete Spell Model for this!
As Vale delved into the scroll’s contents, he learned that this dark magic allowed him to shroud an entire area in darkness, draining the life force of all who dared to step foot within its boundaries.
It was similar to some Corruption Spell, but the range of this Spell was massive. Aside from learning its Spell Model, the scroll revealed the intricate ritual required to cast the Spell, including the precise positioning of Arcane Symbols and the utterance of a prayer to a mysterious existence in another realm. Vale felt a mix of awe and unease as he realized the devastating power contained within this Spell.
‘Seriously… Who’s placing this destructive Spell inside the treasure chest? Isn’t this a bit too dangerous?’ Vale thought as he worried that some other madman would casually learn this Spell and spread terror to the kingdom.
He could imagine that if Neil got into this place and acquired the scroll, that man would probably immediately learn this Spell and test it in nearby towns or villages.
‘No… Perhaps this is a special case? Do others get different scrolls?’ Vale thought as he considered asking the Professors or the Headmaster about this once he got out.
He rolled the scroll once again and kept it inside his coat’s inner pocket.
With a sense of both anticipation and trepidation, he continued to unroll the second scroll. This scroll revealed the secrets of a hauntingly malevolent spell known as “Soul Eater’s Grasp.”
It also had a complete Spell Model this time. 𝒆𝓪.𝙘
As his eyes scanned the intricate diagrams and wicked chants, Vale learned that this dark magic allowed him to summon ethereal tendrils that could drain the life force and consume the souls of his enemies.
‘It’s quite similar to the Tier 2 Dark Spell, Soul Drain… However, this was more sinister…’ Vale thought as he read its content.
The scroll warned of the dangers of wielding such power, cautioning that the use of this Spell would come at a terrible cost. Vale sighed as this Spell was once again, requiring its caster to contact another mysterious existence in another realm.
