Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy

Kyle felt dizzy for a moment because of the rocky movement of the airship… After a while, the airship finally stabilizes and he realized that he received several more notifications from his system.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

It seems that touching the dead bodies allows him to extract something from them.

Kyle ignored the message again as he sat down on the cold floor. He doesn't feel comfortable sitting on the dead body so he had to endure it.

"Haa~ I didn't expect I'll be boarding an airship like this…" Kyle muttered as he recalled the memories that fused in his soul.

Kyle Marshall was only thirteen years old and was previously earning money by helping his father's friend, a watchmaker working at the alleys of Melthorn City.

The watchmaker had a son whom he wanted to send to one of the Arcane Academies. Unfortunately, his son got caught in an accident and his dream could no longer be achieved.

To make a long story short, Kyle ended up being the receiver of the old man's inheritance. It includes not only the applicant's token but also the expensive pocket watch that caught the eyes of ten or so robbers.

A few days ago, when Kyle was planning to visit the old man in the alley before going to the recruitment site, he saw the old man being beaten by a group of people.

They were looking for the watch, Kyle wanted to return it to save the old man but the latter warned him not to give it. In the end, the old man was killed and the robbers were also planning to kill him… Whether he surrenders the pocket watch or not, he knows that he'll be killed by these people.

Ha~

Kyle sighed after recalling this event as he inspected his body… The token is already gone but the pocket watch is still there.

Click…

He pressed the button of the spherical watch as its gold-plated cover opened up revealing the burned device. That's right, it was already broken.

However, it was definitely working fine when it was first given to Kyle according to the memories of this body.

He didn't know when it turned like this, but he had noticed what happened to the device when he was running for his life… He previously thought of using it as a weapon so he checked it while he was running.

'Is this related to my transmigration?' Kyle thought as he believes that there should be a reason for coming here. Perhaps, this broken pocket watch was the medium he used to enter the boy's body…

'I'm probably reading too many fantasy books to even think of this…' Kyle helplessly smiled as he touched the corpse beside him.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

'There's no point waiting for the unknown… Instead of feeling safe and secure that I won't die even if I'm weak, it's better to get stronger and perhaps, I'll even enjoy my life even if it's not going to be long.'

Kyle said in his mind as he decided to start using his system. In any case, he has quite a lot of corpses to extract here so he should obtain a lot of mystical energies or whatever from them. He'll worry about his next action once he got out of this room.

He then took a deep breath before answering the system's question.

"Yes…"

In an instant, he received feedback from the system.

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

'Hmm? That's it?'

Kyle was unsure what to feel after seeing the result. He doesn't even know what this energy represents…

Ding…

As soon as he thought of this, he had another notification. It seems that after using the system, its corresponding functions started activating as well.

[ Name: Kyle Marshall ]

[ Attributes: Strength 0.63, Agility 0.91, Intelligence 0.71, Vitality 0.52 ]

[ Available Energy: 5 ]

Kyle stared at the new panel he was seeing… He can easily guess what those attributes stand for but he has no clue about the energy points that he had obtained. Based on how it was separated and how it says 'available' on it… He feels like it's a usable point or some form of currency…

He wasn't sure.

However, despite not knowing what it really was, he knows that the higher the number, the better. Similar to his attribute points.

He looked at his surroundings again and confirmed that there should be 20 or so bodies around him.

'Since these guys died from the potion as well, I guess they're not that talented like me…' Kyle thought as he decided to start with his extraction. Since these people are weak like him, he wasn't expecting too much.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

"Yes…"

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

Kyle wryly smiled at this as he continued.

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Strength +0.01 ]

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Agility +0.01 ]

…

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.01 ]

For some unknown reason, he was mostly getting Intelligence Attribute and no Vitality Attribute at all. It seems that there is some rule that he wasn't aware of yet.

Kyle stopped for a moment as he felt the changes happening to his body. It wasn't much with one or two extractions but twenty of them is quite a huge sum.

He extracted a total of 21 dead bodies…

There was only one more left and after resting for a while, he decided to continue.

He picked this corpse last since he felt something different about it… He wasn't sure if it was because of his heightened intelligence or if he was just imagining things.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

"Yes…"

[ Extraction successful. Energy +5. Intelligence +0.05 ]

As expected, this man was quite different from the rest.

The one he extracted this time was the guy who had a glowing necklace. It's the one giving him some light in this dark and cold room…

After extracting the points in his body, Kyle bent down to take the necklace.
