Chapter 369 Completed Seclusion
"Whoa… They're real. Master, it's a good thing that we've come here." Ayla excitedly said as soon as she had a glimpse of the blue River Dragon living in the lake within Vera City.
Turhan was also looking at this majestic creature and he was speechless for a moment. He observed the river dragon until it dived under the water and could no longer be seen.
"Y-yeah… It's incredible. It's also my first time seeing a real Mythical Beast. I didn't know that Vincent has this so many secrets."
"Oh? It's your first time as well, Master?"
"Of course, it's not like they can be seen everywhere. I've only seen a Mythical Beast Soul Projection before and they are normally forbidden since this technique requires someone's spirit to be consumed."
"That's true…"
Ayla recalled this method as well and this was actually the same method that was used to attack Magnus, the sixth disciple of Tower Lord Ignacy.
At that time, Necdet used a Mythical Beast's drop of blood to create a Soul Projection attack that surprised everyone in the crowd.
At first, it seems that the requirement is very negligible since it's only a drop of blood. However, before this blood can be used, plenty of spirits must be used to power it up… Spirit, also known as the breath of life, is some sort of energy that any living beings possess. Needless to say, humans or Mana Practitioners have strong spirits, and they are the best source of energy for the Soul Project attack.
This is one of the reasons why it's forbidden to use a Mythical Beast's blood to create a Soul Projection attack.
"Master… Should we head back? I want to check the Kayser Tower as well."
"Hmm? Do you think they will allow us to just visit that place?"
"Why not? Vincent even invited us to visit the Tower before… That invitation should still be valid up until now…" Ayla said as she looked at the majestic tower at the center of the city.
It wasn't as large as the old Black Towers of the organization but it doesn't seem to lack anything other than its height.
"Very well, but let's see if Alchemist Faviona had finished her task…"
The master and disciple had actually arrived here together with Faviona and her disciple Dianne.
Just now, Faviona and Dianne had actually discussed something with the River Dragon before it dived underwater.
Turhan and Ayla just put some distance from them since they weren't really comfortable being near such a powerful beast.
They are unlike those two alchemists who don't fear anything…
Soon, the small group got together again and Turhan realized that the alchemists weren't happy. It seems that their discussion with River Dragon didn't end well.
"Is everything alright?" Turhan asked.
"Ugh… I'm just shocked. I can't even get a single drop from him… I even offered my Tier 5 potions for a single drop… I'm not sure if the Mythical Beast just doesn't know the value of Tier 5 potions or it's scared to scratch itself to get a drop of blood." Faviona said with a sigh as she really tried offering her best items to the River Dragon.
"What would he do with a potion anyway? Perhaps it wanted something else? Perhaps a jewel or even some food instead."
"I tried asking it what it wanted but he simply answered he wanted the Overseer to die…"
"Overseer?" Turhan repeated… Instead of being surprised, he finds this very amusing… He has a bit of knowledge about the existence of the Overseer. He knows that it's related to the Celestial Beings but he didn't expect that even Mythical Beasts were actually aware of its presence.
This also confirmed that the Overseer really exists and is not just some fictional name in ancient stories.
"It's a pity… Maybe you can ask Vincent about it…" Ayla said as she knows the value of that drop of blood as well. Furthermore, Faviona is an alchemist so she probably has a better method of using this blood instead of wasting it for a Soul Projection attack.
"Yeah… I just don't know when will he finish his isolation…"
"Let's not make him hurry… Perhaps he's already a Grand Magus once he comes out…"
The group laughed for a bit as they thought that Vincent was truly an unusual fellow and filled with surprises.
As they were chatting on their way back to the residential area, they soon noticed the group of Celestials flying across the sky. They seem to be hurrying to a specific location and at first, they thought that the city is actually under attack…
However, they immediately noticed that they were heading to the central part of the city instead of the garrison wall.
Soon, they realized that they were actually heading toward Vincent's residence…
"I guess he already finished his isolation?" Dianne muttered as this is the only reason she could think of why the Celestials were moving in a hurry.
'We should also hurry…" Faviona said with excitement as she recalled the real reason why she went here in the first place.
It was the same for Turhan and Ayla as they swiftly moved in unison.
Soon, everyone in the city realized what was going on and most of them couldn't help but feel relieved. Although it seems very peaceful within the city, the news of the Magic God Organization spreading throughout the whole continent had actually reached their city already.
They have found out that the ones that have attacked them with several warships were actually from this same powerful organization and it's obvious why they are worried. Over half of the Black Towers have already joined this organization and they just keep expanding!
They can't just remain passive right now and something must be done…
They don't know what could it possibly be but they know that Vincent would do something about it. This young man is just that capable and everyone knows that they can rely on him, the Blessed One!
***
Vincent was soon surrounded by several people and listened to their concerns… It took him quite a long time to understand everything.
Nevertheless, he didn't feel worried at all.
"Alright… Let me handle this…" Vincent said with confidence as soon as he heard the matters regarding the spread of the Black Magic Organization.
