Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Although Vincent is interested in the knife, he wasn't too inclined to enhance it since it doesn't seem to be too practical.

He also wouldn't use torture since he has a few Subordination Impulse Potions in his hands... This is actually just a charm-type potion and should only be a low grade or even a poor grade at that. It should only have a weak charming ability to the first person they see after drinking the potion.

However, after enhancements and ascension from his System, it had become a strong slave-making potion. There was no need to use such an evil Knife. As long as they keep drinking this potion before the time limit ends, theoretically, they can be kept forever.

Perhaps, he would only use the Omni Knife if he really hated this person and he wanted him to experience hell. Cutting them and then healing them afterward to make them feel endless pain could certainly be considered hell.

If he comes to hate a person, this knife may not even be enough.

As for now, he doesn't have a person in mind that deserves to be tortured by this knife.

'Ahhh…'

Suddenly, a figure of a young lady popped into his mind. It was Beatrice's face.

Now that he thinks about it, Beatrice was nowhere to be seen. She disappeared during the chase of the Berserk Werewolves…

The Celestials guaranteed that Beatrice wasn't included in the group of werewolves that were hit by the War Eagle Squadron's bombardment.

It means that she's still alive…

Perhaps, she was even watching their battles against the cultists and martial artists all this time. He has a gut feeling that the defeat they suffered this time was because of that demihuman.

Vincent shook his head at this idea since there was no way he would know the answer.

Anyway, he continued with his appraisal and confirmed that the two other magic tools were really important.

[ You have discovered a Static Pearl Necklace. ]

[ Static Pearl Necklace ]

[ Quality: Pseudo-Legendary

Number of Enhancements: 0/10

Durability: 410/490

Curse Resistance: 100

Electric Shock: In exchange for 300 units of mana and 6 Durability points, the user can send an electric shock to your target including yourself.

Static Burst: A passive ability that can paralyze a target. It automatically activates if the user was touched or grabbed by another person that doesn't have a lightning affinity.

Description: A newly created necklace made of Static Pearl and Lightning-Enchanted String. It is crafted by an Advanced-Tier Magic Craftsman.

Remarks: The Curse Resistance and its Durability will be upgraded in every successful enhancement. Item Skills will slightly improve in every successful enhancement. ]

Vincent knows that this item will be very useful for close-combat fighters. After thinking for a moment, he realized that it wouldn't be suited for him who already has a Sentient Source Cube and various defensive magic tools.

In the end, he decided that he'll give this to Millie after enhancing it… He's also hoping that it could still be Ascended and Transcended. After all, he still promised them to provide legendary items for their survival... Furthermore, Millie's life-saving treasures were already broken. Ceri has a similar situation so he has to Ascend some items into legendary…

Anyway, since this is a Pseudo-Legendary Grade item already, it has a very high chance of becoming a Legendary weapon so his prayers should be answered.

The last item was Ariana's gauntlet…

Unlike the bulky gauntlets that he had seen before, this gauntlet is thin just like a part of the Celestial Armor… It appears brittle since it seems just like thick steel gloves… Well, since Ariana is using it, it's probably an aesthetic that she wanted.

[ Enlightenment of Lightning Gauntlet ]

[ Quality: Legendary

Number of Enhancements: 0/10

Durability: 1120/1820

Magic Resistance: 450

Description: A special gauntlet made of Thunder Steel and Lightning Origin Crystal.

Remarks: Special Magic Resistance attribute found. This attribute and Durability will be upgraded in every successful enhancement. ]

[ Skills

Magic Protection: A passive ability that protects the user from most Tier 1 Mana Arts. It consumes a small amount of durability every time it successfully protects the user.

Lightning Blessing: A passive ability that provides a 30% boost to any lightning abilities cast by the user. ]

The lightning blessing alone proves that this is really a Legendary Item…

A constant 30% boost is certainly a big deal, especially in high-end battles where results can be determined in a matter of seconds.

It was unfortunate that none of them have an affinity for lightning…

'Should I see whether the Celestials have an affinity with lightning?' Vincent mused.

Although it's true that the Celestials weren't capable of wielding mana, it doesn't mean that they don't have any sort of affinity to the elements.

Rem actually has an affinity to ice elements and Vincent knows of this fact when Rem was still serving the Baron at the Tudor Kingdom.

He had seen her use an Ice Elemental Sword but because there weren't any decent weapons with Ice Element, Rem was no longer using this sword. Instead, she'd rather use her rifle nowadays.

As for the rest of the Celestials, he doesn't really know whether they have an affinity to other elements since they haven't tested it yet.

​ After confirming that there are no problems with the items of the Paragons, Vincent took his dinner late and went to bed… Today was eventful and he needed to rest his mind for some time.

'Ahhh… I wonder what happened to that man…' Vincent suddenly recalled the man that was taken by Krusk.

He wasn't really too worried about him causing trouble since Krusk should be watching him and Calidia was already informed…

Anyway, he soon fell asleep after thinking of this.

In the next few days, Vincent spent his time grinding his System Skills. He successfully Ascended a handful of normal-looking Legendary Items and even broke some of them during the Transcendence phase.

It was also unfortunate that he probably needed two or three more months to advance his Item Transcendence Skill to level 8.

Lastly, the city no longer has a supply of Savage Beast Cores, Spirit Stones, and Magic Beast Cores. They were Vincent's Enhancement Stones, Ascension Crystals, and Transcendence Crystals respectively so it means that his grinding will also greatly decrease since he can only rely on his Pseudo-Celestial Energy…

As Vincent went out of his residence to get some fresh air, he met Alchemist Faviona who seem to be in a bad mood… Her expression was grave so Vincent felt nervous for a moment.
