Novel Bin Chapter 322 Night
As Vincent was enjoying himself in his room appraising his treasures, the others outside were also having fun with their first night in this secluded land.
They were grilling meat and enjoying their food. It was a pity that they can\'t drink alcohol since they still need to work tomorrow.
They were able to be this carefree since the workers have already heard that there are three Celestial Beings around making them feel really comfortable.
Before they heard about their presence, they were actually quite nervous staying here at night considering that Vincent did not bring an army to guard them. After all, the nearest Black Tower would be six hours away from here so if trouble came up, reinforcements will not arrive in time.
Initially, they thought that bringing at least 200 guards is necessary to safely clear the surrounding beasts…
However, they have obviously underestimated the seventh disciple of the Tower Lord. Just the presence of the three Celestial is definitely more than enough for this…
"Millie… You\'re lost in your thoughts again." Ceri interrupted Millie\'s thoughts after she saw her staring at the campfire that is warming them up. They were on the other side of the shelter area where they can view the peaceful lake.
The campfire in front of them isn\'t really needed since the surrounding is bright thanks to the Luminescent Stones they prepared and the temperature is also good since there is already a Formation Art that would regulate the temperature in the area.
The campfires are only there to create a good atmosphere where everyone could gather and perhaps gain some friends.
"I was just thinking of our Master… Today is the day I entered the sect with my friends." Millie answered with a smile.
It was quite rare for people to remember the exact date of this event so Ceri felt a bit surprised.
"So it has been 8 or was it 9 years? Anyway, about your master, are you talking about the Third Guardian Sword of the sect?" Ceri asked after recalling the person she was talking about.
"Yes, he\'s Master Thierry… He took care of us after knowing our past… Right, Master Thierry was also introduced to us by Vincent\'s grandfather at that time… Hmmm… I wonder what happened to Grandpa Raizen… I wasn\'t able to ask Vincent." Millie muttered as she seem to be reminiscing the past.
Ceri noticed that Millie wasn\'t acting like she used to be so she decided to ask what happened.
Finally, Millie revealed that she was thinking of doing the secret art of the Primal Sword Sect…
This shocked Ceri completely. It doesn\'t feel like she was talking to Millie whom she knows!
"What? I thought that you just want a normal life… How did you get this idea? Once you used that secret art, there is indeed a chance that you can stronger. However, there is also a chance that you get an internal injury that you may not recover from…" Ceri reminded her bestfriend.
She doesn\'t just think of Millie as her junior sister but also as an important person in her life.
"I know… That\'s why I\'m thinking of asking for Vincent\'s help. I heard from Miss Calidia and the others about his mysterious ability… Once it went successful, I\'ll become stronger and also capable of protecting this place we\'re building. I just think that I\'m not contributing enough." Millie said with a bitter smile.
Although she teaches Lar\'s group, it wasn\'t really that much in her opinion since she\'s just sharing her basic knowledge that any swordsman can probably teach as well. For some reason, she wanted a bigger role in this growing community… She also didn\'t feel like she\'ll be able to fully utilize her status as an apprentice at her current level.
"Is that so… Then let\'s do it together!"
Ceri couldn\'t help but smile after seeing her friend\'s determination as she decided to try and complete the secret art with Vincent\'s help as well.
"Even if he\'s truly capable of modifying things, we still have to worry whether Vincent will help us or not…" Ceri added.
"That\'s true… In any case, we can repay him easily once it went successful… It will also benefit him if we get strong, right?" Millie said with confidence as she looked at the camp where Vincent should be staying.
They know that Vincent\'s Celestial Beings just killed a few Magic Beasts so it is a perfect time for them to make this kind of request.
At this time, the two heard a group of people going in their direction.
They were Lar, Ross, and Kian who seem to have finished their evening blade practice.
"Teachers! Calidia is calling for you. She said that the hot spring was ready and she\'ll wait for the both of you…" Kian said as he politely bowed to his sword teachers. Although he\'s older than the two, they were still their sword teachers so they didn\'t feel comfortable just calling them by their names.
"Hot spring?"
Millie and Ceri immediately felt excited and thanked the three for letting them know. They\'ve been in the field for a long time so they felt quite sticky. They were thinking of just having a quick bath at the lake before they meet Vincent but it doesn\'t seem necessary now.

Vincent felt overwhelmed after appraising all three Ancient-Rank items in his possession.
Aside from the Enlightenment Stone that would allow him to obtain a blessing or enlightenment from a god, he was able to obtain a Destiny Charm and an Arcane Orb.
These two were items that would certainly cause a sensation in the Black Tower once it was revealed to the public…
It was a good thing that the three Celestial Beings were able to collect these things…
He should also thank the lazy Mana Practitioners of the Black Tower who weren\'t exploring the isolated regions of their territory and just allowing the Magic Beasts and Savage Beasts to grow like this.
If not for their lazy attitude of exterminating these beasts, they would\'ve found these treasures already and left him nothing.
Vincent then happily stored the Ancient Rank items in his ring and continued with his daily appraisals.
Before they come here, he already purchased a lot of health and mana recovery potions that he plans to enhance in the next two weeks or so.
Most of them were only low-grade items and once he runs out of potions to appraise, he just has to send someone back to the city and purchase some.
[ No Enhancement Stones found. Do you want to Enhance this item with Mana? ]
"Yes…"
[ Enhancement Successful. ]
[ Enhancement Successful. ]
[ Enhancement Successful. ]
[ Enhancement Failure. ]
Vincent continued doing this for a while until he heard a voice outside his camp
"Vincent, are you still awake?"
