Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

"What's the problem this time?" Vincent asked as he looked outside.

The aircraft has already changed its direction and they're observing the dark clouds from the side windows of the plane.

'It looks like the Mana Calamity… However, I can't really tell since the aircraft has a strong Mana Formation that stops us from probing it…' Vincent mused as he observed the clouds. He can't really tell just by seeing it.

He's the one who designed the Pale Raven Aircraft so he knows that even if it has an incredibly strong defensive formation, it affects the people inside as well. He can't send his Mana outside the aircraft so easily. At the very least, it would be incredibly weaker and useless in terms of probing…

"Let's just move away from it… It is far from the city anyway so there shouldn't be a problem with Vera City… Hmmm?"

As Faviona was talking, she suddenly noticed a group of cloaked people on the ground just below dark clouds…

"They're probably members of the Black Magic Organization…" Turhan also noticed this as he guessed their identities.

Faviona and Turhan have some sort of Vision Techniques so even if they don't have Mystic Eyes, they were able to notice it faster than the others.

"Wait… If the Mana Calamity is right here, then the Magic God's Avatar might also be here! Turhan! We need to get out of here as quickly as possible! Fire the missile on the clouds to distract them!"

Other than the Black Magic Organization, there is no other organization that uses Mana Calamity like some sort of object.

Vincent immediately ordered Turhan as the latter initiated the attack and used the backup Mana Crystals to boost the speed of the Pale Raven.

"They won't catch us! Don't worry." Turhan confidently said as he piloted the Pale Raven with Dianne's help. None of them even looked at the explosion caused by the missile to the Mana Calamity.

The result of that strike doesn't matter to them. They only need to disrupt whatever they were doing to ensure that they won't get followed so easily.

Anyway, the engine of this aircraft is still being run by Mana Crystals. Once Turhan sped up the consumption of the Mana Crystals, the flight engines will also work faster and the speed of the aircraft naturally accelerates as well.

This method is completely different from the First Generation Aircrafts that heavily rely on Formation Arts.

"It seems that they noticed us as well… However, there was no way for them to catch up to us even if they have flying airships…" Faviona said as she noticed that the people on the ground pointed at the aircraft for a brief moment. One of them even seems so hostile after noticing their aircraft above the clouds.

They probably didn't think that an attack against their organization suddenly come out from the sky. It wouldn't be surprising that they were fuming in anger right now.

'I wonder who that guy is…' Faviona mused as he felt that this person was incredibly strong.

Normal magicians may not see this person so clearly but Faviona, who is an alchemist that has a very good vision technique, wouldn't miss it.

In her job, she has to inspect every ingredient and even the microorganisms living on them. So it is natural that she has such a special technique for this.

"If they really can't catch up to us, then that's good to hear. I don't want to be tangled into another problem before arriving at Star Garden Peak. That missile is a sign of warning…"

"Yes. Even if the missile doesn't do too much damage to the enemies, you have to trust in your creation. The technology of your Aircraft is just too advanced… I believe that we're even flying faster than Gopher Falcon which is known to be the fastest-flying beast. There was no way other aircraft can chase us."

Vincent could only nod and make a mental note of it since this is also the first time he heard about the fastest-flying beast.

'Gopher Falcon… I wonder what it looks like…'

As their aircraft passed through the ritual that the Black Magic Organization was conducting, Vincent and his group were unaware of the commotion they have created.

The person that Faviona noticed just now is actually an Apostle of the Black Magic Organization!

The missile they fired didn't just interrupt their ritual but completely stop it!

After the missile exploded inside the dark clouds caused by Mana Calamity, the creation of Avatar has been halted and they have to restart all over again!

There was no way they'll calmly accept this action against their organization!

"Which organization uses that airship?! I need to know immediately!"

The Apostle gritted his teeth in anger. The number of resources used to trigger the Mana Calamity isn't something he could easily take out again.

He also has a mission to create another vessel for the Magic God's Avatar using the Mana Calamity…

Now that it was messed up, he would be the one in huge trouble!

***

All of this is no longer Vincent's concern as his mind is now fully on his visit to Star Garden Peak.

After more than 18 hours of continuous flight, they finally arrived at the territory of this mysterious organization.

Unlike the other organizations that have fortresses, towers, or castles guarding the border of their territory, Star Garden Peak's territory is naturally guarded by a long mountain range and forests…

They have Savage Beasts and Magic Beasts in these forests that naturally stop any non-members of the organization to enter their territory.

Of course, there are hidden beguiling formations set up in specific locations of the forests to allow the guests or members of the organization to travel in and out of the Star Garden Peak.

Since Vincent's group have an aircraft, they don't have to pass through Star Garden Peak's territory with this method but they still have to stop at the "checkpoint".

The Pale Raven landed near an old manor. Faviona claimed that the one that will guide them will be here but Vincent was surprised that the first thing he would see wasn't a human…

"This… Robot… No, they're the automatons you've mentioned?!"
