Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer-Chapter 540 Kayser Clan ( 2 )
"W-what? First Rapture?"
Vincent repeated in shock.
Everyone who had studied history would certainly know what these words mean. It means that their family's bloodline had only appeared when the otherworldly beings started invading this planet!
That signifies the First Rapture after all.
Vincent started guessing in his mind why it was like that but he decided to just ask Vivian.
"Are you telling me that the Kayser's bloodline is related to that event?" He asked.
"You're right… Our family was born after the otherworldly beings arrived here and made contact with the gods and goddesses of our land."
"Can you tell me what really happened?" Vincent asked since he still couldn't make sense of it.
"I wasn't born yet when it happened so I can only tell you a few things that I've learned after I started my own investigation… However, I can not tell you the reason for free. You have to tell me one of your secrets as well." Vivian replied.
"This…" Vincent paused for a moment after hearing this.
Vivian wanted to know why the Celestials were following him. Since there are two other Celestial Beings at this peak, she definitely knows that these Celestials were picky about their contractor.
She knows that they will certainly not pick a Mana Cultivator who can't even practice Mana Arts at the third tier. Vincent can't just simply say that he was lucky or that the Celestial took a liking to him.
However, he still doesn't feel right about telling her that he can enhance potions to the point that they can replenish a Celestial Being's energy.
After all, he would certainly be targeted if this secret was revealed to the public… He would be targeted for good or bad reasons depending on the person who will learn about it.
After thinking for a moment, Vincent decided to negotiate…
"I can't tell you why the Celestials are following me… However, I can tell you another secret that you might be interested in." Vincent said…
"Oh? What is it?"
"A while ago, we left the broken blade of my Celestial friend. Several members of your group tried appraising it to no avail… It piqued their interest since it could damage the Crystal Tier Automaton in the arena. Right now, they are still unable to appraise it and Nerissa was even thinking of returning it to us instead…"
"Hmm… So you're saying that you'll tell me the secrets of this blade in exchange for the information I discovered about our bloodline?"
"Well, since we are from the same blood… I don't really think that we should calculate it like this. Here… I can also give you this gift." 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
Vincent said as he handed over an amulet to Sage Vivian.
Since he still has many questions for the Sage, it would be difficult for him to continue asking questions if they were trying to get the best out of each other.
With that in mind, he decided to just show his sincerity.
"Hmmm…"
Vivian didn't expect this move from Vincent but she must admit that she liked how decisive Vincent was. She then took the amulet from Vincent and realized how valuable it was. Although it wasn't showing on her face, she was definitely shocked by the quality of this item.
'Oh? She didn't take time appraising it…' Vincent mused after noticing the movement in Vivian's eyes. Although she was trying to hide it, Vincent's sensitive senses wouldn't escape the minute changes in her eyes and muscles at such a close distance.
"This is a Legendary-Grade Amulet… A life-saving treasure… Are you sure you're giving this to me?" Vivian asked.
"Yes… I heard that the Magic Tools here weren't being valued a lot because of the existence of Automatons… However, I believe that it's simply because you don't have items that could replace the value of the automatons." Vincent replied.
Vivian didn't take offense at this as she acknowledged Vincent's words.
"Well, that's correct. The Magic Craftsmen here weren't as diverse as the ones in your country. Our craftsmen require 5 to 30 years of study just to make automatons from Iron Tier to the Diamond Tier."
"I expect as much…" Vincent muttered after realizing the huge difference between each Tier of these automatons.
Although he hadn't seen all automatons of their respective tiers, he can tell the great difference between Iron Tier to Silver Tier and Silver Tier to Crystal Tier.
The difference wasn't just the items used to make them. It was also the mechanical technology of each tier.
"Alright… I will accept this Amulet… I heard from Nerissa that she's planning to give you a mind cultivation technique. I'll give you a better one. You can use it up until Platinum Tier. As for the Diamond Tier, I can't give you that since that requires the approval of other Sages."
"Thank you, but I want to learn about our bloodline…" Vincent said. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
"Of course, I'll also tell you everything I know since you've shown your sincerity… However, you should tell me first about your parents or every Kayser that you know aside from me…" Vivian explained.
Vincent finally smiled as he agreed to this.
He then mentioned to her what happened to his parents just like what his Grandfather Raven told him. He also mentioned the Star Garden Sect in the Tudor Kingdom but it seems that she wasn't aware of this sect's existence.
Then, it was Vivian's turn to tell her story…
Apparently, there are only six members of the Kayser Household that are remaining in the Star Garden Peak. Seven if they include Vincent.
She's the only Sage among them and the other five were all warriors, or perhaps, Manipulators at the Diamond Tier that is serving this country.
It also means that she's the only one that had really taken the time to study the origin of their bloodline.
Of course, she had also learned a lot of things from the older generation of their clan before they died. Nevertheless, thanks to her research, she discovered many things that even her parents weren't aware of.
It was the fact that their bloodline has similarities to the Celestial Beings!
