nLisa and the others kept Vale’s secret and didn’t reveal Lotus’ ability to help with their Spell Recording.

nFirst of all, Vale mentioned that this type of help can’t be done repeatedly since Lotus doesn’t have an infinite amount of energy and is already cut off from the Spirit World. He decided to exaggerate Lotus’ condition so Lisa and the others won’t rely on her from now on.

nIt’s not like he was being stingy but he knows that he has to limit this type of assistance as well. Learning how to properly record a spell without the assistance of Dark Spirit is what should be done since experience is what’s really important in this type of thing.

nAfter all, Vale wouldn’t always be there for them.

nOn the 6th of June, Professor Russell Ravinie entered Class 2’s room with a serious face. 𝙡𝓪.𝒄

nHe looked at Vale for a moment before he spoke with a solemn voice.

n“Vale Chambers will take the Class Advancement Exam for my class. However, the Headmaster requested it to be watched by him since this is the first time someone tried doing this after a long while. Follow me.” As he said this, Professor Ravinie couldn’t hide his smirk.

nHe reported this matter with grievances to the Headmaster for this exact reason.

nHe mentioned how Vale was acting lazy in his class and disregarded his pieces of advice most of the time.

nHis efforts obviously bore fruit as the Headmaster would also watch Vale take the exam.

nEven though Vale was smart, he would certainly feel nervous in front of the prestigious Headmaster… It means that he would have a higher chance of failure!

nProfessor Ravinie could no longer wait for what he would do to Vale once he failed and become his student assistant.

nThere was no way he would make it easy for Vale.

nAs expected, the whole class felt worried that Vale would fail the exam.

nTaking a difficult test alone while guarded by the most prestigious person in the academy, would be nerve-wracking.

n“Good luck, Vale.” Lisa whispered as Vale stood up to follow the Professor.

n“I’m sure that you can do it. I envy you.” Aubrey said with a smile as she believes that Vale wouldn’t take this exam without some confidence in his skills. Although the pressure will be immense while taking the exam, as long as Vale managed to compose himself, then it should be possible to pass this advancement exam.

nVale thanked his friends for their encouraging words.

nOf course, he wasn’t nervous or bothered by the fact that he has to take the exam with the Headmaster.

nPerhaps, he would be nervous before but now that he had gotten closer to him. Vale felt more at ease taking the exam with the Headmaster. This would even allow him to ensure that there wouldn’t be any tricks in the exam itself.

n“Headmaster, this is Vale Chambers that I mentioned a while ago. He will be taking the exam under your watch as you’ve requested while I’ll be lecturing at Class 2.” Professor Ravinie said after entering the Headmaster’s office.

nHeadmaster Jean is currently seated behind his desk and reading a few papers.

nHe looked at the newly arrived people and showed a faint smile.

n“I understand. How long will he take the exam?” The Headmaster asked.

n“The time limit is two hours, Headmaster. I already spoke with Professor Charlotte about the time he’ll take.”

nSince the Arithmetic Class is only one hour, Vale had to get permission to skip the next class to take the exam.

nLuckily, Professor Ravinie already worked on this matter and Vale only has to think about the exam.

nVale soon found the prepared desk for him to take the exam. There was a stack of papers on it filled with arithmetic problems.

nAfter the Professor left some instructions to Vale, he left the Headmaster’s office to return to the class.

nAt this time, Headmaster Jean was looking at Vale with interest.

nVale didn’t mind it and just focused on writing on the test paper… Since the exam is only for a Grade 7 or probably Grade 8 student, Vale felt confident since even if he hasn’t studied math for a long time, he can still easily recall the formulas and equations that he had studied for many years.

nSeeing that Vale was busy on his test and didn’t seem to be unbothered, the Headmaster decided to speak instead.

n“You look confident. You’re not hesitating in what you’re writing.” Headmaster Jean commented.

n“Well… This is not that difficult so I wanted to skip this class and spend my time on something more valuable.” Vale replied while still writing.

n“More valuable? Are you planning to look for more corpses?”

n“Ughh… Not really but that’s also possible. Do you have a suggestion, Headmaster?” Vale asked as he flipped his paper. He already finished answering one side first paper.

nThere were 6 pages more.

n“Well, if you use the favor I gave you… I can bring you to a very good place… It’s my basement. I have a collection there that I want you to see as a fellow enthusiast.”

nGulp…

nVale felt a bit nervous after being invited to someone’s basement.

nOf course, he can tell that there is a great opportunity there but he couldn’t help but think that it could be very dangerous as well.

nFor now, he decided to switch the topic…

n“I will think about it, Headmaster. Right, may I know what happened to his Spirit?” Vale asked.

nHe was referring to Wilfred’s spirit.

n“What do you think?” The Headmaster returned the question.

nVale felt helpless about this but he still guessed.

n“Did you refine it to make a Mystical Item? Perhaps it was used to feed an Evil Creature? Oh, you can probably use it to put a soul on a puppet. I heard that the Dark Alchemy is trying to achieve a living puppet. I think I’ve read about it in the Academy’s paper, am I right?” Vale answered while still writing on his paper.

nAt this time, the Headmaster felt amused as he didn’t expect that Vale would have so many ideas.

n“That’s possible indeed… You have grasped the Darkness Path really well… However, I didn’t do any of those. I sold his spirit back to the Moontomb Family. I earned quite a lot so I gave you that corpse a while ago.”
