Novel Full Chapter 874 Vale’s Day
874 Vale’s Day
Everyone was surprised after hearing this revelation. After all, on the surface, the Church of the Fortune Goddess and the Divine Sorcerer don’t seem to have any problems with each other.
The Holy Priests should be aware that the Sorcerers like them disdained these Mind Controllers who liked to enslave people without their consent.
Although Sorcerers like them also purchase people from time to time, they were taken by them for the greater good. The people they were taking were willing to be sold or get experimented on by their Sorcery and Alchemy.
They wouldn’t buy people who don’t want to be bought. In short, they were still retaining their human decency despite their noble status.
They would even follow the laws of the nobles in the territories where they were purchasing humans, as they would always pay their taxes and such.
Of course, this could only happen in several nations, not including the Ruri Kingdom, Millton Kingdom, and other smaller kingdoms.
After the order was given, everyone soon dispersed so they could begin their preparation to eliminate the Mind Controllers.
In any case, this mission doesn’t have a strict deadline, and as long as they could return with a decent report about what they’ve done against the practitioners, that would be fine as well.
“Mind Controllers… I’ll be hunting you soon…” Claud muttered as he was the most excited High Sorcerer to hunt these practitioners of Psychic Arts. After all, once he killed most of them, he would be able to obtain a better status and be granted a chance to receive the third Blessing of the Divine Sorceror.
Once that happened, his path to obtain Divinity would become one step closer.

Three days had swiftly passed since Vale’s escape from the crystal and the Death God’s Spirit.
His recovery had been gradual as his consciousness emerged from a deep slumber.
At the time of his release from the ice, Vale had entered a state of tranquility—a protective measure to shield him from external harm.
On the third day, clarity returned to Vale’s mind.
Magnus, the castle’s butler, had briefed him on the situation.
However, the reconnection with his other Avatar’s mind filled in the gaps, revealing the events that had unfolded during his long slumber.
“So many things have happened over the past few years, huh…” Vale muttered to himself, contemplating the changes he had missed.
As he sat in his chamber, still adjusting to the pieces of information he had, Denise arrived.
She pushed carts filled with different corpses—Arcanists, Demon Saints, Half-Immortals, and others.
“Ah? What’s going on?”
Vale’s shock was evident as he surveyed the ghastly scene before him.
“Hehehe… Don’t be too happy. This is just us taking care of you.” Denise said, making Vale a bit confused. However, Denise just continued without waiting for his reply.
“We all know that you have a peculiar hobby—male or female, it matters not. These corpses are for you. We’ve collected them over the past few years.”
The corpses were certainly a bizarre gift, yet he understood their purpose.
They were resources or raw materials for his Divine Extraction System… He couldn’t help but laugh as this shows that they were indeed looking forward to the time when he woke up.
“Thank you, Denise… Please send my regards to the others who have collected them. I’m sure taking these corpses wasn’t easy. Don’t worry, I’ll also give a gift to everyone later.”
Denise smiled after hearing this.
“What’s that gift? Can I have a clue?” She asked…
“I’m still thinking about it. However, what does having an extra Spell Light sound like?” Vale asked after some thought.
“Ahh? Extra Spell Light?” Denise’s eyes widened since her Spell Lights was only fourteen! Fourteen Spells were certainly difficult for her to indulge more in Alchemy… If she had some extra Spell lights, then that would be incredible!
“Yes… You can have eight Spell Light or one Evolved Spell Light that could record a Celestial Art.” Vale replied.
Denise’s eyes widened after hearing this.
“T-that’s possible? Evolved Spell Light? Can I really have that as well?” She asked with a hint of excitement in her voice.
However, she suddenly recalled that she doesn’t really have a Celestial Art in mind that she wanted to learn. Although she knew some of them from Magnus, Faith, and Pearl’s knowledge, she felt that it wasn’t suited for her.
“No… I think I’d rather have Eight Spell Lights instead.” She added after some consideration.
“Haha… Alright… Let’s arrange that later.” Vale said.
“Great! I’ll look forward for that… Go ahead and indulge in your hobby. I’ll be leaving now.” Denise said that although she knew very well what Vale was doing with those corpses,
However, she still liked teasing him about this matter.
With that, she departed, leaving Vale alone with the carts of lifeless bodies.
And so, Vale sat among the corpses to start his Extraction.
***
Another three days had quickly passed, and Vale felt the presence of a powerful being closing into his castle.
‘She really became an Immortal…’ Vale smiled as he thought of this.
Thud…
The grand doors of Vale’s castle swung open, and Lisa stepped inside. Her vampiric aura carried her swiftly through the corridors…
The news of Vale’s liberation from the ice had reached her, and she had swiftly returned after handling all the troubling matters during her absence in her castle.
Soon, she found Vale in his chamber.
His eyes met hers, and a mixture of relief and curiosity flickered in his gaze.
Lisa approached, her steps soundless on the marble floor.
“Vale, you really made us worried.” she said softly, “Ahh… Before that, I’ve brought something that might help you someday.”
From the folds of her cloak, she produced a small velvet pouch. Within it lay the Edo Stones—ancient artifacts of the Time Manipulators.
She then explained how these stones held the power to reach into the past, to extract a copy of one’s former self, and to use that essence for healing.
