Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

[ Creeper Leash ]

[ Quality: Unique ]

[ Number of Enhancements: 5/10

Durability: 105/105

Bind: 45

Swift: 25

Description: A purple leash mainly made of a mysterious creeper vine strengthened by various alchemical products. It has a strong binding ability against flying beasts and could extend up to 5 times its current length.

Remarks: Bind and Swift attribute found. All attributes including durability will increase in every enhancement.]

This is the appraisal result of the item.

Of course, not all products that are being sold have been enhanced by Vincent. He would only do a few of them and label them "special" and increase their price for a bit.

As expected of a Unique Rank weapon, it could be sold for a price of 30,000 gold coins and the special version is being sold for 50,000 almost twice its original price.

This wasn't a bad deal at all since a single leash can capture at least 5 flying beasts before its durability gets to a critical level. As for the price of a living flying beast, it can greatly vary depending on its species, strength, and injury it had sustained during the capture.

"At this rate, I guess I won't have to sell any of my Pseudo-Legendary Items…" Vincent muttered after calculating what he can earn just from this single product.

As for the powder, it may not be as expensive as the leash but it can still be sold in a huge number making it more profitable than the leash.

[ A bottle of Scented Wisteria Powder]

[ Quality: Tier 2

Durability: 5

Number of Enhancement: 5/10

Description: A bottle containing a 40-gram powder of scented Wisteria and various alchemical products for preservation. It has a strong scent that could attract most winged beasts within 600 meters. Once fed to a flying beast, their hostility can greatly weaken.

Remarks: Each enhancement can improve the effectiveness of the powder. ]

This powder can be sold for only 3,000 gold coins each. It wasn't costly but it's needed for their leash to be even more effective. It's also a perfect food supply for the beasts so they can tame them a lot easier.

In short, a single Creeper Leash would always have 10 or more Scented Wisteria Powder included when they purchase.

After they reached an income of almost 5 million gold coins in just a week, they decided to change their mode of payment to Mana Crystals instead so the inventory became a lot easier.

"Hirtia, Rufia, you guys can take a rest… You two have been working hard over the past few days."

Vincent said to the two hardworking women in the garden. They were both females in their thirties and the main contributor to the two products of their store.

Hirtia has Mystic Finger that is related to Plant-Type appraisal skill and Rufia's Mystic Blood can help grow plants, beasts, or insects a lot faster.

Hirtia's gift allowed her to create perfect plants to be made for alchemy while Rufia's blood, would be used to force the plant's growth.

Vincent wasn't exactly sure but it appears that Hirtia can also modify the growing plants to some extent using her mystic finger.

It was such a fascinating skill and it was a pity that she only started exploring her abilities since she was always worried about her safety in the last few months they were hiding.

The two skinny women looked at Vincent and smiled.

"Yes, we will take a rest now, Sir Vincent…"

"Great. The Celestials would like to see all of you later on so make sure to rest and take a bath. Make yourself a bit more presentable in front of the Celestial." Vincent said as this is the only way he could think to force them to use the facilities of their residence.

It appears that after living a very frugal life over the past few years, they couldn't easily change their habit of saving water and food. Well, even changing clothes or taking a bath has been quite rare for them unless Vincent forces them to do so.

It was until he decided to use the Celestials' names that made them very obedient.

"We will do so, Sir Vincent. We have received 200 orders of Creeper Leash in the next four days so we are hurrying a bit."

"I see… Rufia, make sure to drink the Blood Rejuvenation Potions we've prepared for you…"

"Of course… Sir Vincent…"

Vincent then nodded at the two before leaving.

"Is he really blind?" Hirtia muttered after seeing Vincent leave the garden.

"Yes! When he brought me to his courtyard, we chatted for quite a while and I confirmed that he was really blind. He wasn't acting or anything. The Celestials had also confirmed it." Rufia answered with certainty.

"I see… I guess he has been blind since birth. He was too natural and almost not needing this walking cane."

"Hmm? Maybe because he's an Aura Knight… It must be some sort of Aura Skill."

"Maybe… Oh right, why were you invited to his courtyard? Did he take a liking to you? Kekeke…" Hirtia said as she started removing her gardening gloves.

"What are you talking about? He just asked me about the conversation I heard regarding the war that didn't seem to have happened."

"Oh! The thing that you heard during the second phase of your experiment?"

"That's right… I'm not sure what was going on but it seems that the war is really happening and we're just unaware of it."

"What? Isn't that scary?" Hirtia shuddered at the thought of a silent war that is happening right now without them knowing about it. What if the Tower lost in the war, won't they get implicated?

"Don't worry too much. We already have two Celestial Beings guiding us. If those weren't enough to protect us, there is no safe place left on this land."

"Haa~ That's true…"

The two of them then finished their work in the garden.

They briefly went to the front court which is now considered the training ground.

Hya! Hya! Ha!

Soon, Rufia and Hirtia saw a group of men practicing martial arts. Their shouts followed by a punch in the air creates a shockwave that disrupts the flow of wind in front court.
