Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 78 News



Vincent started telling the story that he's extremely familiar with.

Before he could even finish the story, Vincent noticed through Therese's facial expression that she already recognized the culprit and what this is all about.

"I… I was against that! I'm sorry… The previous Lucius Clan will never do something like that… I'm sorry, Vincent."

Therese repeated as she can also feel the emotion coming from his words.

​ It must've been a devastating incident for a nine-year-old kid to witness the destruction of his home. Not only that, almost everyone in that small village had actually died from this incident.

It wouldn't be surprising if Vincent bore grudge against the Lucius Clan.

She can still recall that eight years ago, her younger brother disappeared and is suspected to have died after encountering some elite soldiers from the Troy Clan which is now part of the Rebel Army.

Their Clan Head at that time did nothing about it. Only after a year did they know that a part of the Lucius Clan has already changed their sides and was planning to support the Rebel Army and the new government they were planning to build.

In the second year that her younger brother disappeared, she learned one of the Guardian Knights of their Lucius Clan was able to complete the investigation about the disappearance of Kai and confirmed that it was indeed done by the Rebel Army.

"Manager Therese, may I know the reason why you left the Lucius Clan?" Vincent asked after he heard her side.

To be honest, he doesn't hate the whole clan itself. He only despises the three people that were sent to investigate and decided to destroy the village.

Once he gets stronger and could fight against the Celestial Beings, he would certainly visit the Clan and make them pay.

"I no longer know who can be trusted in the clan so I left and decided to settle here." Therese said with a sigh.

It seems that the internal conflict within the clan is worse than he expected.

"How about you, Vincent? Will you think of avenging them? I can give you some information about the Lucius Clan."

"Are you really going to give it to me? I might take revenge someday once I get stronger." Vincent asked as he looked at her showing the determination in his eyes.

"If possible, I would like you to only exact your revenge on the Guardian Knight… She's actually our eldest sister and her name is Corrine. She's only 36 but she's already an Archmage and two unnumbered Celestial Beings were with her. This made her status as a Guardian Knight as firm as the Patriarch."

"Corrine…" Vincent muttered under his breath as he made sure to remember this name.

The two continued chatting for a while as he asked a few more things about the Lucius Clan.

He learned that the title Guardian Knight was just given to her as the strongest mage and warrior of the clan. In reality, she is at the level of Magic Knight in swordsmanship and Archmage in Mana Arts.

Aside from that, he realized that the clan was considerably strong because there are 4 existing Celestial Beings protecting their clan, and two of them were even with Corrine.

It means that exacting vengeance against her is indeed a lot more difficult.

Nevertheless, thank his conversation with Therese, he finally has another set of goals aside from visiting the Zemin Clan.

He also received his payment from Therese which were 40 silver coins and 20 mana crystals.

As soon as he received his salary, he suddenly recalled the other matter he failed to discuss with her.

"Manager Therese, do you remember the Spirit Stones from the Blood Mist Sect? Is there a way for me to purchase them as well?"

Vincent asked.

"Spirit Stones? They are things we're directly sending to the capital… However, it should not be a problem if we sell a few of them here. Do you need them? I heard that only Magic Craftsmen were capable of handling them." Therese reminded.

After all, Spirit Stones are quite expensive so it would be a waste of money if he purchased them and just end up gathering dust.

"Though I'm not a Magic Craftsman, I might be meeting one on my way to the northern region." Vincent replied.

With that, Therese no longer asked more questions as she allowed him to purchase 5 Spirit Stones.

Anyway, with their deal with the Blood Mist Sect, they will be receiving at least 10 Spirit Stones per month.

Vincent then left the Guardians Auction House after expressing his gratitude to Therese and promising her that he won't be involving innocent people once he decided to exact his revenge.

Anyway, he gave a final look at the grand auction house behind him.

He would probably miss the auctions and his daily discovery of new types of magic tools or even old magic artifacts.

It was just a short job as an Appraiser but he certainly learned a lot of things here.

In the end, considering how lived most of his life in the jungle, he concluded that it was a good idea to find a job in the city and familiarize himself with the world.

"But I should probably find another job that will earn me a lot of money…" Vincent muttered as he considered reselling Enhanced or Ascended Pills, Potions, Weapons, and Equipment.

At the very least, he needed money to purchase Mana Recovery Potions since he has to always Ascend or Enhance an item.

On the next day, Vincent and Tara decided to leave the Hearts City and head to the Arms Fortress.

It is further east of the kingdom and was quite far.

However, the main reason he decided to come here was the article that he read this morning in the newspaper.

Apparently, the Zemin Clan has sent their young elites to battle against the Barbarians at the Eastern Border.

What's even more important is that the article said that they will be led by the youngest daughter of the Zemin Clan's Patriarch!
