Chapter 861: Soul
The matters in the Airship were soon settled by members of the Arcane Bureau after they revealed their identities.
At this time, the Airship itself was already broken, and repair would take weeks if not months.
Because of that, Vale decided to bring the members of the Arcane Bureau to his castle and use their extra Airship there to visit the Pallham Empire, where the Rank Zero Demon Saint could be hiding.
For this, Vale’s Avatar had to use his Broken Arcana, the Blindfold, to bring all of them back to the castle. freewёbnoνel.com
Using his Arcana, he created a tear in space and guided the twelve members, led by Captain Ashley, through the portal.
They soon found themselves standing in the grand hall of Vale’s Castle.
Vale immediately summoned one of the castle’s servants to attend to Ashley’s group.
“You can go ahead and rest. We will use the airship to travel to the Pallham Empire tomorrow,” Vale informed Ashley before taking his leave. He just received a message from Magnus through telepathy and was requesting his presence inside Denise’s laboratory. Ashley expressed her gratitude to Vale, the Shadow Immortal, for his hospitality. “Thank you for your generosity,” she said, even though Vale was no longer in sight. After a few moments, the members of the Bureau started appreciating the castle. This was their first time entering the home of the Shadow Immortal, so they were overwhelmed…
“I can’t believe we just entered his castle,” one of Ashley’s subordinates remarked, awe evident in their voice.
“Indeed… I wonder what we can find here,” another added, curiosity piqued.
“I hope I brought a Recording Crystal with me.”
“Idiot… That’s probably not allowed. This is still a private property.”
“Ahem… I just joking… Anyway, I hope we can look around this place.”
Of course, the Captain of the group was also interested in this place. After all, they might never get a chance to enter this castle ever again.
After taking a deep breath, Ashley gathered up her courage as she approached one of the servants and inquired if they could explore the castle.
Thankfully, it was fine.
The servant informed them that there were only a few restricted areas they should avoid. The servant listed the places and they all nodded.
With that assurance, and since they weren’t tired yet, Ashley’s group decided to look around. As they wandered through the castle, they stumbled upon the training grounds. Thud! Thud! Thud!
There, an army of Metal Golems was practicing their swordsmanship, their movements were extremely precise and synchronized. The sight was both mesmerizing and intimidating!
Captain Ashley and everyone else were stunned by this sight. It was certainly a testament to the castle’s formidable defenses.
“But aren’t they Golems? What’s the point of practicing swords if their movements stay the same? It’s not like they’d increase their sword proficiency with that, right?” One of the members of the Bureau muttered, and this was actually what was in everyone’s mind.
After all, Golems weren’t capable of learning aside from its programmed movements.
In short, their precise sword slash would remain the same in terms of strength, accuracy, and speed as long as it was in the same condition.
“Maybe it’s capable of learning… This is the Shadow Immortal’s castle, after all.” Ashley muttered.
However, if that was the case, she couldn’t understand why they were allowed to see this revolutionary Golem.
She actually knew about their Metal Golems called Androids. They were also deployed as guards in various cities and towns that were under the Immortal’s protection.
However, the ones in front of her were definitely Androids of a better version with their speed. They were also wearing better runic weapons and armor equipped, so she knew that they were different.
Clank! Clank!
The sound of metal echoed through the grounds as the golems trained tirelessly.

Ashley and her team watched in fascination, realizing the extent of Vale’s power and resources. As they watched for some time, they actually realized that the Androids were using various techniques that Spirit Knights would use!
This was very interesting and the Arcane Bureau would surely want to obtain such reliable golems for conducting dangerous missions like fighting against Evil Creatures or those who had been consumed by their Arcane Path.
Anyway, they soon started to appreciate the other places of the castle and weren’t satisfied even after looking around for more than three hours.
“This place is incredible,” one of the team members whispered, eyes wide with wonder.
Ashley nodded at this as she could tell what was in their minds.
‘However, I’m sure that it wasn’t the Shadow Immortal who had made this creation… I wonder if it’s the old genius Magnus or someone else.’ Ashley thought for a moment before shaking her head.
She should be satisfied to know about these highly advanced metal golems.

Meanwhile, as Vale left the visitors from the Arcane Bureau, he made his way to Denise’s laboratory, a place brimming with arcane energy and mysterious creations that Denise had made over the past few years.
As he entered, he was greeted by the sight of Magnus and Denise, who were waiting for his
arrival.
But what caught his eye was the towering figure of Denise’s latest creation.
Needless to say, it the Apex Guardian, Denise’s latest creation, that had also left Magnus in
awe.
Vale’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Did you make this?” he asked, his voice tinged with admiration.
Denise looked up, a proud smile playing on her lips.
“Yes, I was waiting for you. I have a plan to save your body with its help. However, I just need
“A soul, right?” Vale interrupted, his smile widening as he revealed a glowing, purified soul.
The ethereal light danced in his palm, casting a serene glow around the room. He could immediately tell what was missing on the android just from a glance.
Magnus and Denise stared in stunned silence, their eyes fixed on the soul Vale held.
They could sense the immense power emanating from it. It certainly had a formidable origin.
However, Vale’s next words stunned them even more…
“This is from one of the Seven Deadly Sins, Sloth,” Vale explained…
