Novel Full Chapter 480 Reward
Chapter 480 Reward
His dragon form was towering over the room, but he couldn’t just transform back. He was still enjoying it for a bit.
Suddenly, a thought crossed Vale’s mind.
Instead of forcefully deactivating his transformation or waiting to naturally revert to his human form, he decided to try something first.
After taking a deep breath, he used his claws to reach for his body and carefully extracted one of his dragon scales.
“Urghh…”
The process was not without pain, but Vale knew that this scale would serve a valuable purpose. He planned to compare them to the Dragon Scale he had previously extracted from Aersus, and he knew that he could find a better use for it.
Seeing that his scale didn’t vanish after removing it, he immediately continued and removed a total of five scales before he was forcefully transformed back to his human form. He could still maintain his form if he spent his Essence, but he decided against it and allowed the deactivation of his Shapeshift Spell.
Once again, the transformation wasn’t immediate as his body started contorting.
The Tower Master observed Vale’s actions with astonishment. “So, you can actually do that…” She murmured, her eyes filled with wonder.
“Does it mean you can get as many dragon scales as you want? That’s extremely valuable…”
Vale simply smiled as he completed the transformation back to his human form. “Unfortunately, I can’t… It will cost me some Draconic Essence, and I don’t have a lot of them.”
The Tower Master nodded as she immediately realized the requirements for the transformation. Indeed, Vale was not a Half-Dragon as she initially thought.
In the meantime, Vale calculated the Draconic Essence he spent. The Essence he extracted a while ago allowed him to reach 650 points. Now that it turned 600 points, he realized he could only undergo such a transformation 12 more times unless he extracted another dragon, a feat that seemed unlikely outside.
“I guess twelve more times isn’t that bad…” Vale muttered as he made sure not to use this Shapeshift Ability unless it was necessary.
As far as he was aware, there were no more dragons outside. With this in consideration, he had to be wise when using the spell again.
Vale then picked up the five scales about twice the size of his palm and turned to the Tower Master. “Tower Master, thank you for your assistance…” He said, extending his hand towards her. 𝒃𝙖.𝙘
The Tower Master hesitated for a moment, contemplating the gesture before accepting his hand.
As their hands met in a firm handshake, a sense of trust seemed to form between them.
“You can call me Constance…” The Tower Master revealed, her voice softening. She acknowledged the connection that had been forged, considering how she even showed herself.
In the meantime, Vale activated one of the new features of his system… He wasn’t planning to extract the Tower Master but was simply triggering a different aspect of his Divine Extraction System.
It was the system’s function called the Combat Power Identification.
[ Combat Power: 565,000 ]
‘Mhmm? It’s a lot lower than I expected.’ Vale silently thought as he compared it to his Combat Power. To be honest, Vale wasn’t really sure about the optimal usage of this ability.
It only allowed him to have a rough idea about the overall ability of the target he touched. The Combat Power was based on the Attributes, Spells, and perhaps, even including the Mystical Items they were currently equipped with.
‘Ahh… Is it because she doesn’t have a physical state? But how did I touch her?’
As if she could hear his thoughts, Constance smiled and spoke.
“Are you curious why you can touch a soul? It’s simple… I’m still made of Soul Energy. You even felt the Soul Pressure a while ago. In short, I can touch or let you see me if I want to.”
“T-thank you, Tower Master… I haven’t studied much about souls.” Vale could only reply.
“Well, you’re not a Necromancer anyway… Alright, I’ll be sending you out now… Don’t forget about your mission. That’s ten years. The reward is the peace of this realm, and the penalty of failure is probably a destruct—No, I don’t think it’s enough to destroy this realm, but it would be different.”
With that said, Constance waved her hand and a light enveloped Vale to send him out.
“Remember, don’t be arrogant… Aersus was barely able to use his strength when he fought against you. So don’t think of finding real dragons with your current strength.”
“W-what?” Vale didn’t expect to hear this while he was being sent out. His body was already translucent and was about to disappear.
Constance smiled at this and added. “The challenges you faced were also a bit harder than the other Arcanists since you’re a bit special. At the very least, I sent you three reward items as a gift for working hard.”
“Ahh… No wonder…” Vale finally realized how the other two reached the seventh floor… It wasn’t just because of their talent but also because it was easier than what he had faced. 𝘦.𝘤𝘰𝑚

As soon as Vale was outside, he was blinded by the bright sunlight while still clutching the five valuable dragon scales.
It was a deliberate choice on his part, as he intended for these scales to serve a specific purpose – to be seen by others.
Vale believed that it was much better to display the dragon scales and let the people know that it was the reward he had received from the Tower.
This way, anyone who would covet his reward would only target this “artifact.”
Additionally, if the need arose, he could even consider selling them to prominent people, especially since he still possessed three dragon scales obtained from Aersus.
The potential value of these scales was not lost on him.
After adjusting his eyes, Vale looked at the crowd. He immediately felt the vibrant energy of the crowd enveloped him.
The surrounding was filled with cheers and excitement from the onlookers who had gathered to witness the event.
He also noticed that surrounding the Tower were several First Class Arcanists, and they seemed to be looking out for him.
The crowd’s enthusiasm was contagious, and Vale couldn’t help but feel a surge of pride welling up within him.
“Mhmm… This doesn’t feel bad.”
