Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 138 Engraved



After losing his eyesight, Vincent has become completely different as he was unable to accept what happened to him.

In the first few weeks, he thought that he was still inside the Memory Stone\'s Trial.

He thought that once he completed it, he would be able to regain his eyesight and that his consciousness hadn\'t come out of it yet.

Even if Tara and the others came to his side, he thought that it was just part of the trial and didn\'t think too much of it…

However, it didn\'t take long before he realized that he has really become blind at this point as depression took over him. Many doctors tried to help him but none of them could cure him.

It wasn\'t just his eyesight that was taken but his direction in life. What could he do without eyesight?

It wasn\'t until Divine Doctor Ji came to him and said a few words about his vision being cursed. It wasn\'t because he has an injury or an illness but it was something else beyond him.

Vincent finally recalled the goddess\'s words before she impaled his eyes with her fingers…

"There comes a day when what\'s shrouded is revealed, the exiled one shall usher forth the beginning of a new era."

He wasn\'t sure about this riddle or perhaps a prophecy… However, he felt that it should be connected to the loss of his eyesight.

Nevertheless, what truly allowed him to see a ray of hope was his Item Awakening System.

That\'s right, he realized that even if he was blind, as soon as he triggered his system skills, he will still be able to see the status window giving him light in the darkness he was in.

Thanks to that, even though it took him quite a while, he was able to slowly adapt to his situation and learn a few things.

With this in mind, he started his level grinding.

He\'s planning to collect a lot of experience to push his Enhancement Skill to Level 10 while his Ascendance Skill to Level 9 so he can hopefully get the Transcendence Skill.

Anyway, it\'s not like he has other options to do after becoming blind.

Practicing his combat skills right now is not a good thing so it\'s better to increase the number of powerful weapons or items that he could wield for himself.

Of course, he can\'t let Tara and Rem leave him at this point so he religiously created +9 potions for them to slowly recover every bit of their Celestial Energy.

Although he knows that these two wouldn\'t just leave him after becoming blind, he still knows how important they are especially in his current situation.

Suddenly, Vincent felt someone coming over to his room.

He is currently seated at his work table enhancing various items.

Knock… Knock…

"It\'s me, Yulia. I have news about the current situation in the capital."

"Come in..." Vincent said as he put down the talisman he was holding.

After Vincent found a clear goal in his mind, he realized that he also needed to know the current situation not only of the Zemin Clan but the whole Kingdom.

,m "Lady Yulia, you didn\'t have to personally report it to me. You can just send your servants to relay the news to me." Vincent said before she even spoke.

"Well, I like visiting you here… Am I bothering you?" Lady Yulia replied as her eyes looked around the items neatly organized on his table.

It doesn\'t feel like Vincent was really blind seeing how he was able to neatly organize his things. Furthermore, the items that he was holding feels different from the ones she normally obtains in the market.

The items on the table were quite common and can be purchased within the cities and towns controlled by their clan so she\'s very familiar with them. However, the one Vincent had purchased feels completely different from them although it appears similar.

Nevertheless, she did not comment on it.

"You\'re not bothering, Lady Yulia. Thank you for coming here to check on my condition." Vincent changed his tone as he gestured for the woman to sit on the couch.

Yulia then took her seat as she relayed the news she had gotten.

After the Ankle City was taken over by the revolutionary army, the Royal Family thought that they would directly assault the Capital after gathering their forces.

However, what surprised them is that Grand Knight France\'s forces had actually occupied Galatea, the Academy of Magic!

The Academy wasn\'t weak. In addition to their incredible barrier that has protected them from outsiders, they actually have many Archmages in their ranks aside from a couple of old Grand Knights. Unfortunately, they still fell into the hands of the Duke, after ten or so instructors of the Academy revealed themselves as supporters of the Duke.

Similar to what happened on the eastern border, they destroyed the defenses from within!

This greatly alarmed the royal faction as well making the capital\'s defense weak since everyone started being cautious with one another.

If someone was suspicious, whether they were supporters of the Duke or not, they would be dealt with by the royal guards!

Even if the Duke didn\'t start attacking the capital, its defenses started weakening by the pressure they are giving off.

"Hmmm… So they remained like this over the past few days…" Vincent muttered after hearing the news.

"That\'s correct. It was as if the Duke was waiting for the defense to crumble a little bit more before acting…"

"That makes sense. So what\'s the plan of the Zemin Clan? Will you be allying yourself with the Duke?" Vincent asked.

Yulia shook her head at this question saying that it was impossible for their clan to bow down to them since the Duke had allied himself with the Barbarians.

This is the bottom line of the Zemin Clan… Perhaps, if the Duke didn\'t make a truce or agreement with the Barbarians, they might have considered compromising with the Duke.

"Anyway, we\'re thinking of moving to a different place. Since you still have a connection with us, you can join us."

Yulia offered.

During this time, Vincent didn\'t hear anything about the arranged marriage but he already heard a few things from Tara and Rem.

Vincent had also decided not to dwell with it. He was able to calmly do this thanks to his mature mind and how things haven\'t developed between the two yet.

However, he made sure to remember this and engraved it into his heart.
