Three weeks had safely passed after they boarded one of the three large floating ships brought by the Black Tower organization.
A single floating ship was over 300 meters in length and has seven floors in it. In addition, a single ship can carry at least 1,400 passengers inside!
What greatly surprised Vincent, was that it seem to be very luxuriously designed as well based on Tara and Rem's description. They vividly described the beauty of the ship and Vincent couldn't help but feel sad at this.
Well, he can't see this beauty so he can't really appreciate it. At the very least, the cabin assigned to him was quite good since it was complete with necessities. Since he was also blind, they even offered a full-time assistant that could help him every day.
Of course, he rejected the kind offer as he doesn't have plans to stop his level grind. After all, he almost filled his Obsidian Treasure Box with magic items. It doesn't matter whether they are inexpensive or not since what matters was the number and not the quality.
During the past few weeks in the Zemin Clan's estate, Vincent managed to level up his Ascension Skill to level 3. Furthermore, the three weeks here within the floating ship allowed him to push it further to level 4.
At the moment, he was hoping to reach his Ascension Skill to level 5 before they alighted at the Black Tower's territory.
His level grind was quite fast, perhaps it was thanks to his Pseudo-Celestial Energy that completely changed the amount of energy that was being expended in every use of his skill.
'Well, there's not much a blind man can do… I can only do this…' Vincent bitterly smiled as he kept his 'finished' items back into his Obsidian Treasure Box.
Perhaps, right now, he has a number of treasures that not even some large clans or organizations could possess. If he ever decided to create an organization, he would certainly have enough items to arm them to the teeth.
Even Vincent couldn't help but shudder at the thought. This is why he always keeps his Obsidian Treasure Box by his side and notified Tara and Rem that it must be protected as well.
Apparently, the number of his Pseudo-Legendary had exceeded the 300 mark already.
He was able to easily count the number of this Pseudo-Legendary since Ascending any item at that level would create a special effect. Furthermore, he was able to get an achievement and reward for every 100 Pseudo-Legendary Items he ascended.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs for his Epic-Rank Items, he didn't count them anymore after reaching 500 of them.
Nevertheless what truly made Vincent happy was his 20-Slot System Inventory was about to be filled with rewards he received from the system!
Vincent spent his Pseudo-Celestial Energy again so he decided to finally take a rest just like any other day.
Since he can now relax, he lay down on his bed and decided to check his system inventory. By checking them from time to time, Vincent could make some plans for his future. During this peaceful time, he can also ponder the best method to use them.

Thirteen slots were now taken in his Inventory Slots. He even received another transcendence card thanks to completing a hidden achievement.
It was quite a sight for him since he can see items in the inventory. Well, this is his favorite pastime. After all, he can see the objects in his Inventory. As a blind young man, it can be considered his salvation as he spends his time looking at them.
He doesn't get tired of it and was only afraid that he won't be able to see them as well. That's probably the scariest thing that might happen to him right now.
Of the 13 items, seven of them are system-related items or items that can't be seen by other people.
The other last six, on the other hand, were items that he can take out and let the others see or even use.
Furthermore, there are two items here that truly piqued his interest.
[ Luxury Protection Card ]
[ A card that protects one selected item from being destroyed by Transcendence Skill. ]
[ Effective for 30 minutes. ]
Vincent doesn't have a Transcendence Skill yet. However, he wasn't surprised to get this card since it was the same when he only has Enhancement Skill before.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnyway, the most important thing here is the hint about the destruction of items.
"So during Enhancement and Ascension Phase, there is no item destruction and only failures without much side effect. The most it could do was waste my energy or resources like Spirit Stones and Beast Cores. However, it will be completely different when I'll try to use Transcendence Skill in the future, huh…"
Vincent muttered as he reminded himself that he can fearlessly use his first stage and second stage skills of his Item Awakening Skills but not the third stage.
Right now, he can only imagine how many items he will probably destroy to Transcend some items.
He can only hope that he will get more guarantee cards like Luxury Protection from the system in the future.
The other item he was most fond of was the Opulent Star Dust… It was even an item that attracted the Celestial Beings!
"Vincent, Lady Yulia is outside."
It was Tara's voice coming outside his room.
The cabin they were in has three rooms so it was perfect for their three-man group.
"Alright, I'm coming…" Vincent replied as he wore his Legendary-Rank Nightbane Robe.
This robe was something that Tara gifted to him after looting it during one of her dungeon explorations.
As soon as he came out, Yulia greeted him with a worried tone in her voice.
''Vincent, it's been a while… You rarely come out of your room. You should consider getting some sunlight from time to time… Ah--No, perhaps this is for the best…" Yulia spoke as she sighed after.
"Is there something wrong, Miss Yulia? Please, don't be afraid to tell, we've known each other for a while now." Vincent said amicably aware that something was off. Although he's blind, he's not deaf. She's definitely hesitating and worried about something.
"Ugh, it seems I really can't hide it from you. There seems to be a problem with the other elders as they no longer want you to receive some special treatment…"
