Novel Bin Chapter 372 Lake
Vincent gave them over a thousand potions which were divided into three and all of them came from his inventory so they can already set out and find their targets.
He also made sure to provide them with enough magic tools so they could move in stealth if necessary. After all, the Black Magic Organization probably has eyes monitoring their situation. They can\'t let them know that their Celestial Beings have decided to go out of the city or it would be dangerous for them as well.
In addition to this, Vincent decided to only inform the important officials of the city about his decision to send out the Celestial Beings. They were, of course, quite nervous after hearing that the celestials wouldn\'t be present for a while.
They have no idea when will they face the Black Magic Organization after all.
However, Vincent assured them that these Celestials would be able to return in time if they really have to fight the enemies.
After about six hours after going out of his isolation, Vincent finally decided to visit Krusk in the lake.
He\'s together with Ayla who seemed to be very happy that Vincent could finally see again.
"Are you sure that your seal won\'t be coming back anymore? There are cases that if the core of the body seals weren\'t broken, they can still come back and cause some trouble." Ayla asked.
"Don\'t worry about it. I received a confirmation that the seal was already gone… In any case, can you now enhance an item above eight?" Vincent asked curiously…
Ayla wryly smiled as she shook her head.
"My limit is still 8 enhancements. It\'s even difficult to reach that… Most of the time, the items are being destroyed so I have limited experiments. It\'s not like Master Turhan is giving me plenty of allowances."
"Hmm? Aren\'t you earning from selling your enhanced items?"
"Ugh… It\'s difficult to get repeat customers… Maybe if someone helped me close down the Beacon Magic Shop, I will have a huge market…"
"Ahhh…" Vincent scratched his head after hearing this. Their magic shop has indeed taken over a huge market over the last few years thanks to his influence as the Tower Lord\'s disciple.
"Hahaha! I\'m just joking… In any case, most of my enhanced items are only Rare and Unique Rank. I\'m not enhancing Epic Items or Pseudo-Legendary Items so I\'m not earning as much as you think."
"Oh… Did you not sell the items I gave you to study? You can just sell them if you\'re done studying them."
"Really? Then I\'ll do just that… Though I don\'t want to sell them since they helped me a lot, I guess it would be better if they find their suitable owners…" Ayla pondered for a moment before agreeing to Vincent\'s suggestion.
"In any case, I wonder why you\'re helping me so much with my enhancement research… I already know that you have better enhancement skills than mine…" Ayla suddenly said as she suspiciously looked at Vincent. Although Vincent already mentioned that he\'s also interested in her enhancements, it doesn\'t make sense to her considering how he already has better skills.
Does he enjoy watching her struggle and slowly learn how to enhance an item?
Vincent, on the other hand, wasn\'t too surprised about this as he replied with a smile…
"Let\'s just say that I have a different Enhancement Method… I was thinking that if I learned both methods of enhancement, perhaps I will have a better success rate and maybe even my consumption of energy will lessen as well. Hmm… Is that a bit too greedy?" He asked.
"Of course not… Advancement is something that any magician would aspire for… But… will you teach me the other method as well?"
"Ugh… That\'s the problem, I can\'t teach it to anyone else…"
"I thought so…" Ayla replied. She wasn\'t disappointed at all as she already knows that Vincent\'s enhancement ability was related to his talent or gift. Obviously, it is not something that he could teach to her as it should be something that he was born with.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the lake. Vincent was immediately greeted by the large River Dragon as soon as his aura or perhaps, mana fluctuation was noticed.
"You\'re finally out, Vincent… I can\'t tell if something changed on your body though…"
"I\'ve already regained my eyesight and I\'ve also gotten a lot stronger…"
"Really? It wasn\'t that obvious… Anyway, I know that you are knowledgeable about various things. Do you know how other creatures like me transform into their human form?"
"I\'m sorry, Krusk… I have no idea how it can be done as well. My suggestion is for you to return to the Silent Creek Dungeon and find clues there. Of course, I will not be sending you there alone."
"Back to that dungeon? Ahh~ Do you think that the glowing tree will help me?" Krusk suddenly asked since aside from this mysterious tree, there are only a few rare or unique items that can be found within that dungeon.
"Yes… I think that it might help you retain your form… If not, you may still find inspiration there that may help you."
"T-that\'s true… Should we go now?"
Krusk asked as he lifted half of his body out of the water.
His shining blue scales reflected the sunlight giving a majestic aura to him... Vincent paused for a moment to appreciate this sight before he replied.
"Unfortunately, I can\'t leave this city right now. I also sent out the Celestials to complete a mission… Are you in a hurry to get your human form back?"
"Well, I\'m not in hurry… I just want to learn it as quickly as possible… It\'s inconvenient to move like this. You know that I enjoy walking around the city and meeting interesting humans… I also want to taste different food…" Krusk replied while reminiscing about the past..
Of course, his satiety can be easily satisfied by using his mana… Unlike normal beasts, he doesn\'t need to eat solid food since what he needed is energy which is something he could get as long as he has mana. Even if he doesn\'t eat for months or years, he wouldn\'t die at all.
Nevertheless, it doesn\'t mean that he can\'t enjoy the good taste of human food.
"Alright then, let\'s schedule it at a later date… I wouldn\'t be worried if a Celestial can go together with you so we will have to wait for them to complete their mission…"
"Ugh… Fine. Since they left, I will defend this place until they return… Is that right?"
"That\'s correct, Krusk… I will count on you. In the meantime, I\'m giving you a different task…"
"I knew it… You have to reward me with plenty of those high-grade potions, alright?" Krusk said with a grunt but he wasn\'t angry about this at all.
Vincent immediately agreed with this condition and stated his next mission.
After making some arrangements with Krusk, he then left with Ayla to check the Kayser Tower this time…
