Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy-Novel

Chapter 378 Senior

As Lisa's body underwent the transformation, she could feel a surge of Dark Energy coursing through her…

'It's not painful… Is there a problem with the potion?' She mused in confusion.

The warmth that enveloped her was comforting, like a gentle embrace from the potion itself. It was the complete opposite of what she was expecting.

Then, her senses heightened, and her vision sharpened as she absorbed the potion's effect. For a brief moment, colors appeared more vibrant, and the sounds became more distinct. It was as if a veil had been lifted, revealing a realm of possibilities beyond her imagination.

"Incredible…" Lisa muttered. A newfound confidence surged within her, replacing her initial worries and doubts.

'Is this what Senior Lesley mentioned? Is this really my talent?' Lisa silently thought as she recalled what Lesley had told her before.

However, before she could think too much of it, she felt the Formation Circle shaking.

Whom~

Within the Formation Circle, her body was suddenly enveloped by Dark Energy.

The onlookers, including Professor Zara and Alchemist Zach, watched in awe as Lisa's transformation unfolded.

They weren't worried about the Dark Energy wrapping around her body.

They exchanged glances, acknowledging the unique nature of her experience. It was as if Lisa's affinity for the Darkness Path had found harmony with the potion, resulting in a seamless integration of power.

"So she also had a unique physique… No wonder she was improving so quickly." Professor Zara muttered.

"Indeed. It's probably a rare Dark Arcane Physique… I don't think even the Headmaster knows about her unique constitution." Alchemist Zach commented.

The other two students heard of it and couldn't help but feel enlightened.

According to their studies, three types of special physique suit the Darkness Path.

The first was the Dark Arcane Physique. This physique was associated with individuals who had a unique affinity for darkness and shadow magic. Those with this physique have a natural connection to the darker aspects of the arcane arts.

One noticeable aspect of this was that consuming the Darkness Possession potion was not painful for them. This was what happened to Lisa, indicating that she possesses a certain type of Dark Arcane Physique.

Maya Featherstar also had this type of physique, but it wasn't awakened because of the potion. Instead, it was most likely because of her bloodline.

The other was the Seamless Arcane Physique, often found among necromancers and practitioners of advanced dark arts.

Those with this physique undergo a rigorous training process and consume a specific potion to obtain it. One sample of this was the Enduring Body that the Necromancers learn in order to conquer the Dark Soul Tower.

This physique grants them a heightened resistance to physical and magical fatigue, enabling them to endure the intense rituals and spells associated with necromancy. Individuals with the Seamless Arcane Physique often have a well-toned and agile build, allowing them to seamlessly blend physical prowess with their mastery of the arcane arts.

Lastly, the Impure Darkness Physique. It was suited for those who delve into curses, hexes, and rituals involving entities from other realms. Practitioners with this physique have a unique connection to the forces of darkness, but it comes at a cost. They often exhibit physical signs of their affinity, such as pale or ashen skin, glowing eyes, or even some otherworldly features.

The Impure Darkness Physique could also be associated with a more robust and imposing build, reflecting the power and intensity of their dark magic.

Most of the students with unusual features had this type of physique…

Vale, standing at the edge of the Formation Circle, couldn't help but feel a surge of pride as he witnessed Lisa's transformation. He knew that Lisa would really become a great Dark Arcanist at this point. After all, not many students in the Academy could possess or even Awaken their Special Physique.

As Lisa's transformation reached its peak, the warmth that had filled her began to subside, leaving behind a sense of empowerment.

Professor Zara approached Lisa, her eyes gleaming with pride.

"You have truly embraced the essence of the potion, Lisa…" She said, her voice brimming with admiration.

Alchemist Zach echoed Professor Zara's sentiment, his voice filled with enthusiasm. "Your transformation was remarkable, Lisa. Ahem… You should consider becoming an Alchemist. I'm even willing to accept you as a disciple. Once you graduate, you're guaranteed a spot in the Alchemy Division of the Order. No—I think I can arrange for you to be a member in your seventh year in the Academy. How about it?"

Lisa's heart swelled with gratitude for the support and encouragement from her professor and the alchemist.

"Thank you, Professors. I'm indeed planning to be an Alchemist, Professor Zach. However, I want to meet Senior Lesley first before joining any Organization."

As she said this, her eyes widened as she realized something.

"Oh? Lesley? Is it the Lesley that had graduated here a few years ago?" Professor Zara asked.

"Mhmm? That monstrous girl?! You know her?" Zach was also surprised.

Lesley was quite famous since she achieved so many things for the Academy before. It was a pity that Lesley had only participated twice in the Twelve Academies Competition, or she would have achieved more accomplishments.

Realizing that she could no longer take back what she had just said, she could only accept it.

Lisa nodded awkwardly. "Yes, Professor Zara. I've heard so much about her achievements and contributions to the Academy. She's the reason I decided to enroll here. I believe meeting her would provide valuable insights and guidance for my journey as an Alchemist. For now, can you not tell anyone that I know her?"

The Professors weren't sure why she wanted to keep this matter a secret but still agreed to her request.

In the meantime, Vale, who had been silently listening, felt a mix of emotions upon hearing Lesley's name.

Lesley was the one who had fed him the Darkness Possession Potion that had literally killed him.

He had been avoiding Lesley ever since, fearing her curiosity and potential desire to dissect his body to understand his miraculous survival.

'This...'
