Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Vincent took a couple of steps back…

The reaction of the being inside is quite faster than he expected.

Nevertheless, he was ready. He did not take out any weapons aside from the dagger he was already holding.

He also made sure to give enough space between them in something unexpected happened.

Clink… Clink…

There were a few more sounds of the mechanical gears before a puff of air suddenly came out.

Whoosh~

He excitedly looked at the capsule waiting for its hatch to completely open.

He can still remember Tara's beautiful figure when he met her the first time… Of course, he wasn't waiting to see a naked figure inside, he just wanted to see whether the being inside is really a Celestial Being and if it is, he wanted to see whether there was a number marked on her body.

Well, he has blurry eyes after all. Even if he wanted to see the naked figure, he wouldn't be able to appreciate it. Even the number that he was looking for is just basically a blurry black mark somewhere on her body that could possibly be a number.

"Vincent… Be careful. You're too close."

Professor Levent reminded although he was already ten steps away from the chamber.

Vincent only nodded as his focus was on the figure that will come out inside. However, before he could even see the figure, the Cryogenic Sleep Chamber already started crumbling into smaller pieces… He was very familiar with this as it appears similar to the nanotechnology that he was aware of.

As for Levent, this was her first time seeing this as she clenched her fist tightly. She's not aware of what was happening and it can be scary at some times.

Vincent noticed this as her breathing started showing signs of nervousness.

"Don't activate the formation yet, Professor Tara. The being inside is only putting on her suit."

"Her suit?"

Vincent just smiled as he felt a lot better after knowing that the figure inside is most likely a Celestial Being although he hadn't seen her yet.

"Who are you?"

A confused voice coming from within the full-body armor suit was heard. Because the voice is from within the suit or maybe even some kind of a speaker, it sounded quite mechanical although it seems to be from a woman.

Vincent didn't immediately answer as he tried to familiarize the image of this blurry figure. Its outer appearance was coated with metallic green and black. On its helmet or face, there was two red glows from where her eyes should be. She doesn't seem to possess a weapon as well.

After taking note of this, Vincent replied.

"I'm Vincent… I got this thing from a friend and was told that it might help you wake up… This is Professor Levent. She's the one who found your sleeping chamber."

He said as he showed his Astral Night Dagger before introducing Professor Levent.

"Why did you do that?

"Ugh…"

Vincent couldn't think of an answer so he looked at Professor Levent. She seemed to be troubled at first but she immediately found an answer.

She only needed to be honest. She looked at the armored figure as she answered.

"Well… I initially thought that inside the capsule is some kind of a treasure so I hid it and tried opening it for several years. But… I didn't expect that it's more than just a treasure… I've seen similar armors with a different design before. Are you perhaps a slumbering Celestial Being? Ugh… Vincent, what do we do?"

At the last part, Professor Levent looked at Vincent helplessly since she was unsure how to deal with Celestials at all.

Instead of helping her explain, Vincent just looked at the armored being.

The figure just looked back at him and didn't speak.

At this point, Vincent decided to break the silence.

"Your memories… Are you missing some memories? Do you remember why you're sleeping in your chamber?"

"Why do I have to tell?" The being answered after a moment. She then looked around at her surroundings as she probably realized that she was inside an unfamiliar cavern. Furthermore, she might've even noticed the Mana Art Formation made by the Professor.

"We're not here to harm you. As a matter of fact, we're willing to help you in case you've been asleep there for a very long time now. Perhaps, a few decades or even centuries had passed, right? If you're a Celestial Being, you might want to meet a couple of them right now. They're currently receiving my help regarding their Celestial Energy."

Vincent explained. Not only the armored being was surprised but also Professor Levent who had no idea that Vincent has such a backer.

'He's helping two Celestial Beings? Does that mean he's providing them Blood Essence? There are even two of them?! Ahh! Maybe that was the reason why he's blind! No wonder he can't be cured by normal means.'

Professor Levent finally connected the dots… or so she thought.

"You're right. I don't know how long had passed… However, I know that I have not recovered yet. Do you have anything that can cure my injury?" She asked.

Professor Levent immediately acted as she took out three high-grade health recovery potions.

However, the armored figure only looked at it for a moment before shaking her. Levent tried a few more times as she brought out several pills and even fruits that have the ability to cure external or internal wounds.

Vincent then decided to take out three +10 potions.

These potions were for him and not even meant to be given to Tara and Rem. Well, most of the time, he's only supplying them with +9 potions since that would normally be enough and they aren't requesting more either.

"Let me have those three…"

Hearing this, Vincent squinted his eyes but he did not delay and handed over the three health potions. He can always make them.

Clink…

The helmet of the armor was suddenly withdrawn revealing the beautiful face of the Celestial Being… At least, Vincent is imagining her as a beautiful woman since it's quite blurry.

Anyway, he still saw her drink those potions in succession.

After feeling the effects of the potion, she couldn't help but look gratefully at Vincent.

"Incredible… I didn't know this world has developed this level of nutrients already. If I continued drinking this, I won't even need to use my chamber to slowly gather my strength…"

As she was speaking, she seemed to have recalled something, so she immediately asked. "Tell me, is there already a victor? Since you know two others of the same race as me, they've probably been injured in the war and were sent back here in the back lines to recover… just like me. They should know the situation, right?"

At her sudden question, Vincent was dumbfounded.

"Huh?"
