Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Mobilizing three airships is not a small matter. They consume a lot of resources or energy stones. After all, unlike the Vermillion Hawk aircraft that can be powered by a small but complicated Mana Formation to generate energy, the huge airships could only run by using energy stones.

Currently, their city doesn't have many sources of income so they know that Vincent wouldn't easily mobilize these airships if the Nidite City isn't in a dire situation, especially when they can travel to the Nidite City in just a couple of days using the road they have developed.

Since Vincent opted to use airships instead of the roads for their Mage Battalion, it must have been a very urgent matter so everyone couldn't help but be curious about the situation of the city.

Some of them were even worried for the friends they'd made there after staying there for a few months.

"Miss Calidia, can't we start traveling this evening? I'm not sure how could we help there but it might be better to arrive earlier than later…"

"That's true… I don't have a lot of things to prepare anyway… Even if we stay there for months, there shouldn't be a problem."

Everyone seem to agree with this suggestion since they were all aware of the feeling of being helpless. They certainly don't want their friends to experience such a situation.

Calidia smiled after hearing their suggestion but she shook her head. She appreciates their concern but rushing there without preparation will just result in another problem.

"Sir Vincent needed to prepare something and he mentioned that he'll need this whole night to complete it… So we can only move tomorrow morning. To give you a heads up, you will be helping in the development of the Mage Tower there. You might've noticed this already but those that have been called today were the ones who had participated in the creation of the Kayser Tower."

Calidia revealed. Everyone finally understood what was going on. They indeed participated halfway through the creation of the Mage Tower so they have some experience.

However, they have built the Kayser Tower for almost six months! Do they have that much time to spare during the invasion of sea creatures?

Furthermore, she previously mentioned that they'll only stay there for two or three months…

"Oh! Have they started building the Mage Tower already? Are we just going there to help them complete it?" Cedric asked.

Everyone nodded in agreement after he pointed it out. It would indeed make sense if the tower is already under construction they only needed to help build it.

However, Calidia shocked them again after she revealed that there is no Tower being constructed yet.

"I can't explain to you the complete details but Sir Vincent has plans for it. In any case, the city defense matter will be handled by some trustworthy individuals so you only need to focus on following Sir Severin's instructions once you got there."

Calidia then discussed the payments and benefits that they will be receiving after the completion of this project which added a bit of excitement to these people.

After all, they were all Mana Practitioners here. They wanted some Magic Tools that are being sold in the branches of Beacon Magic Shop.

Within the city, there are five of these branches and everyone here has visited these stores several times.

The quality of all the items that are being sold there is top-notch… Even some items that shouldn't be that good were somehow 'boosted' in that store. They are always better if compared to similar items sold elsewhere.

Of course, the downside is that they were costly but that is still understandable considering the quality. Well, it's already acceptable since the markup price was only about 15 to 20 percent of the original price with better attributes.

***

As everyone was getting excited about the payment once they completed their task, a group of people arrived at the southern gate of the city.

They were all wearing a Magician Robe that has been made popular within the Black Tower's territory in the past year because of how effective they were. Needless to say, they were products of the Beacon Magic Shop.

This group of magicians seem to have arrived here on foot so the people were a bit curious.

After all, the nearest Tower is a few days away even with a horse-drawn carriage. Arriving here on foot isn't normal so they have easily caught the attention of many passers-by.

However, what truly caught their attention was the handsome man at the center of the group.

This man wore a modified green Beacon's Magician Robe. His temperament was ethereal, like an Immortal who had descended from the sky, giving off an indescribable feeling. The people who had seen him weren't sure if it was an effect of a magic tool or his natural aura.

Before this group of six can even enjoy the busy street of the city, a young man suddenly appeared in front of them, shocking those who were glancing at the handsome man in the center of the group.

Almost everyone could recognize this young man who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Lord Vincent!"

The people who recognized him immediately greeted but Vincent waved his hand to calm them and faced the group who had just entered his city.

"I believe it's our first time meeting, Senior Jairo?" Vincent asked as he looked at the man in front of him.

His eyes are still blurry but he was able to recognize the fifth disciple of the Tower Lord.

"Ohh? You recognized me? That's impressive. I'm sure that we've never met before." The handsome man called Jairo replied.

He was indeed curious about this since he was sure that he doesn't have anything with him that would reveal his identity. Even the identification plaque and the disciple robe that he received from his master were kept inside his dimensional storage space.

Of course, Vincent wouldn't reveal his secret to this person who had been staying in the 15th Tower all this time.

Instead of answering him, Vincent immediately got to the point.

"May I know why have you come here?" Vincent tried to be polite but the aura he was emitting was easily noticed by Jairo's group so they know that Vincent is wary of them.

"Hmmm… Your personality was as described by Sir Byrne… Anyway, I've come here to invite you back to the 15th Tower… This time, Master Ignacy can no longer help you."

Jairo coldly said as he stepped forward in an attempt to grab Vincent's collar.
