The news about Vincent becoming blind shocked everyone. Not only those who knew him but also the entire Zemin Clan Estate.

After all, this happened inside the Decadence Soul Temple which is supposedly a harmless training hall!

Furthermore, it was also confirmed that Vincent was actually a descendant of the fallen Kayser Clan who had established the previously Eastern Guardian, the Star Garden Sect!

Many doctors and alchemists tried to cure Vincent's eye but none of them worked. Even some miraculous elixirs were rendered useless!

He was supposedly here to enter the clan by marrying Lesley after the Patriarch made a prenatal engagement with the Kayser Clan… However, Vincent had unfortunately become blind to a harmless temple.

Many people within the estate just couldn't understand how it happened.

Various kinds of rumors started appearing like how the Patriarch didn't really like the engagement that was made so he blinded Vincent with the help of his two sons.

There were also rumors that the Decadence Soul Altar became cursed so no one has been allowed to try and test it again.

Three weeks after Vincent became blind, a group of people was now in front of the black altar…

They now have found 'sacrifices' to take the trial and see whether the next users will indeed be blinded like Vincent.

There were two nervous servants who will be trying the trial today. They had been promised that whatever happened to them, their families would be secured within the clan and that they will receive a huge sum of money.

As soon as they connected, they lasted for ten breaths and returned completely fine…

"We're safe!"

"Y-yes! But, there was no trial…"

The two celebrated but the news they brought stunned the clan again.

The trial seems to have disappeared and the altar became just a normal Memory Stone where you could see bits of memories of the stone for ten breaths. There was no time compression or trials at all.

This news greatly troubled the elders of the Clan. Their Zemin Clan has been using this Altar to temper the souls of their younger generation.

Although there are other methods they could use, this is considered to be one of the best in the kingdom as it is completely safe even without having the inheritance of an Aura Knight.

Unfortunately, now that the Decadence Soul Temple became useless, they could no longer benefit from its trial, and became a thing of the past.

Today, Divine Doctor Ji had also arrived within the Zemin Clan Estate… He was previously planning to reject their invitation but after learning that it was Vincent who needed the treatment, he decided to stop taking a break and hurried to the Zemin Clan's territory.

Three hours after the old man came to see Vincent, he came out of the patient's room while shaking his head… He was exhausted as he had his mana drained as well. It had obviously been difficult to diagnose Vincent.

"It's impossible for me… This isn't just a physiology issue but something else that I do not know."

The old man who was basically the last ray of hope for Vincent failed.

At this point, no one is thinking that Vincent could ever recover.

Right now, Silverio and Tyrell who had instigated Vincent in the first place were still under punishment and couldn't even leave their rooms. After hearing that Vincent's condition didn't improve even after the Divine Doctor looked into him, they became frustrated as well. After all, their punishment would most likely not end for a long time.

In addition, they felt that Tara and Rem have been observing their every movement! They were already aware that those two weren't servants or relatives but Celestial Beings that were most likely contracted to Vincent!

Unless the Clan's Celestial Beings protected them, there was no way they could survive if those two attacked them in a fit of anger!

"Father… What's going to happen to our engagement?" Lesley asked his father with anxious eyes. She has been worried about it for quite a while and she only had the courage to ask about this now.

They were currently within the Clan Head's office as he seems to be busy reading various documents on his table.

"Don't worry, my daughter. I won't be marrying you to a blind man. The Kayser Clan is no more so it's not necessary for the marriage to continue." Leon said as he looked lovingly at his daughter.

Although Vincent has two Celestial Beings following him, they weren't too worried about this since they have Number Celestials on their own. Anyway, it's not like they will make a move if they didn't acknowledge the prenatal engagement.

Perhaps, if Vincent has value, he would really consider it and allow Lesley to marry him.

However, not only was he blind now, but he was also a low-grade talent as a Mana Practitioner. He hasn't even learned Tier 2 Mana Arts. Although he is still a 3-Star Aura Knight, it was probably just because he inherited something from the Kayser Clan that allowed him to do so.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they will treat him badly. It still doesn't change the fact that Vincent had truly assisted them during the invasion and his potion that could counter the Barbarian Poison had helped a lot of their people as well.

In the end, Vincent is allowed to be treated as a special guest of the Clan. But entering the clan through marriage is close to impossible as the other prestigious clans would surely laugh at them and mock their foolishness.

Leon, the Patriarch of the Clan, wouldn't like that to happen.

"Whew… Thank you, father… I will leave now. I'm thinking of going to the Bamboo Field to train my Mystic Eye." Lesley heaved a sigh of relief as she left her father's room with a smile on her face. She didn't even wait for Leon to answer as the door closed with a bam.

She was obviously happy at her father's decision. Although Lesley's heart wavered when Vincent saved her from Joran, she has already calmed down, especially after seeing Vincent's situation.

Seeing how he had become invalid, she felt sad at first then it turned into pity. Her budding feelings for him dissipated as she saw him lose his mind.

Apparently, Vincent couldn't accept that he became blind as he would always scream, wail in anguish, throw something, and even injure himself in the past few days.

Of course, she wasn't too surprised that Vincent would act like this since she also didn't know how she would act if she became blind. What she was surprised is that Vincent hasn't committed suicide yet.

In this world that is filled with danger and ruled by the strong, being blind is an extremely difficult situation. Perhaps killing yourself would be for the best so your relatives would no longer have to suffer for you.

But that doesn't matter to her anymore. She decided to become more proficient with her Mystic Eye so she won't ever suffer like this.

As soon as Lesley left the Clan's Estate, a beautiful woman with black and silver hair looked at her departing figure with her serene eyes.

"Rem… What are you doing here?"

A man called out to the woman as she shifted her gaze and looked at the doctor in front of him.

"Severin… Nothing. Thank you for continuously helping Vincent even with his situation."

"Ha! Of course! I'm sure Vincent will calm down after a while. I know a few patients that have become blind, as long as they have someone with them and realized that they could live even without being able to see, he would not give up in his life."

"Hmm… I hope so." Rem replied as the two carried their luggage as they headed towards Vincent's courtyard.

"Anyway, he's a 3-Star Aura Knight. It means that he has learned Soul Sense and Domain… That would at least help him get used to his surroundings. Let's just give him some time." Severin added.

This is what indeed happened as they stuck together with Vincent and waited until he accepted the reality.

One day, Vincent decided to do something as he requested various materials to be brought to him before locking himself in his room. At this point, he only allowed Rem, Tara, Severin, and Yulia to visit him from time to time to check his condition and a maidservant to deliver his necessities.

It has been four days since Vincent locked himself in his room. During this time, he had probably obtained thousands of items with him. It includes raw materials, potions, weapons, talismans, Mana Arts Manuals, pills, and random things.

Of course, he didn't obtain these items for free as he spent his money to have them purchased with the help of the estate's chief steward together with Rem who had wanted to go out from time to time.

A crate of mana crystals was spent for all of this.

As for the result of his closed-door seclusion, aside from Vincent, only Tara and Rem were aware of it.
