Chapter 600 Compensation

"Anti-Magic?! How can you use it?! How can you use all those different spells?!" Gram exclaimed in disbelief, realizing the unexpected threat they were facing.

He couldn't understand why such a formidable figure had been concealed within this forest.

Indeed, he knew that the blind young man before them must be a renowned figure to wield such powers.

Commander Gram knew they needed to regroup quickly, as they were unprepared to confront someone with the ability to use Anti-Magic.

They were ill-prepared to contend with an adversary who wielded Anti-Magic, a force that nullified their mystical abilities.

While their Arcane Sigils offered some defense, their efficacy was limited against Tier 1 Spells—a stark contrast to the higher-tier Spells that the mysterious figure was undoubtedly capable of unleashing.

"I will handle this enemy! Retreat!" Gram shouted as he knew that his soldiers were just easy targets.

However, before Gram could activate his Arcane Sigils, the young man enacted yet another spell, one that absorbed the ambient light, plunging their surroundings into an inky shroud of darkness!

"What?!"

"Are we inside a formation art?"

"No, this must be Light Absorption or a stronger Darkness Veil."

The Knights, who were unable to use their Arcane Heart due to the Holy Smite's debuff, spoke with worry. Examine the origin of this data, deeply intertwined with n0v[lbin★

"Shamans, use your light spells! Knights, do not be forceful with your spells, or your internal injuries will worsen! Just slowly retreat!" Laura immediately voiced out her commands before the knights could panic.

Then, at this moment, Shadow Soldiers materialized, emerging from the void with a chilling purpose! They wielded their shadow blades and aimed at the retreating Knights!

The Shadow Soldiers moved swiftly, their ethereal forms proving elusive and disorienting to the Knights.

Like phantoms, they surged forward, and their movements were like a dance that leaves dark tendrils in the surroundings.

Whoosh~

They assailed the knights with a relentless onslaught.

Clank! Clank! Clang!

Moreover, she had no clue how many more times he could unleash that heavenly lightning!

If the caster could use it 3 or 5 more times, she was certain that they would all be defeated here!

In the meantime, Vale's smile widened upon hearing their surrender.

He had deliberately compelled them to submit, seeking to assert his dominance and expose their vulnerability.

With the imminent invasion of the Abyss Realm approaching, he couldn't afford to waste time subduing the people of the Ruri Kingdom, despite the potential boost it would provide to his own strength.

His desire was for the Ruri Kingdom to retain its strength so that when the demonic beings arrived, they would offer a robust line of defense, serving his ultimate purpose.

'I've expended a few Divinity Points, but I suppose it's insignificant...' Vale thought to himself.

Having ascertained the Celestial Corpses' ability to regenerate their Divinity, he had become more liberal in utilizing his Divinity Points.

Although he could only extract Divinity from six Celestial Corpses at present, he intended to unseal the other coffins to have more sources of Divinity Points.

He wasn't in a hurry to unseal them since he had to be mindful not to make any errors that could result in the destruction of the Celestial bodies or their possessions.

Anyway... Vale stopped casting and dismissed his Shadow Soldiers. Instead, he activated his Darkness Manipulation Spell to cover all the Airships, ensuring the completion of the Extraction from those who had perished.

Following this covert action, he turned to the Vice Commander and delivered a firm statement.

"Compensation... You have assaulted my castle without initiating a dialogue. There is a price to be paid."

Laura wasn't surprised by Vale's demand. Despite the casualties they had suffered, she felt compelled to comply without attempting to negotiate.

Casting a brief glance at the unconscious Captain, she began to respond.

"We are willing to compensate you. Once we return to the capital—"

"No... I want to be paid now." Vale interjected, cutting off Laura's words.

"What? What kind of compensation do you want? We don't have the funds here, as we came to quell the rebellion..." Laura countered.

"And I have no affiliation with the rebels. Regardless, hand over that red glove you possess, along with your Commander's cape. I also require one of the Airships..." Vale demanded.
