Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

There were only three Pulsating Earth Bullets that were made but all of them were sharp and had a strong fluctuation of mana covering them.

Necdet felt the pressure coming from it as he dodged to his side just in the nick of time…

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The three bullets hit the floor as Necdet evaded with his nimble movement. It seems that his boots right now were actually some sort of Magic Tool that increases his agility.

However, Necdet didn't feel happy as he can still feel the pulsating mana coming from the bullets!

It is not done yet!

The three bullets seem to be alive as they immediately floated after being buried on the floor and chased after Necdet again.

This time, the latter didn't dodge as he blocked the Fusion Arts with his artifacts!

Bam!

One of the earth bullets exploded after being in contact with the mana shield created by his artifact.

The second one, however, was only partially stopped as it destroyed his already weakened defenses…

As the third one followed, Necdet greeted his teeth as he decided to endure the attack…

'Eat this!'

His eyes were focused on Magnus as he pointed his scepter at the spectral bird!

The struggling projection of the Mythical Beast suddenly bloated as if it was being overloaded by something.

Magnus realized that something was wrong as an enormous amount of energy started gathering in front of him…

Apparently, Necdet was indeed correct about Magnus' current situation. He was able to stop the summoned spectral bird but he doesn't have the strength to destroy it immediately.

He has to gather enough Mana to pierce through it and hope to destroy it in one go.

The problem is that he doesn't have the time to gather this energy as he needed to use his Fusion Arts to pressure Necdet and hopefully defeat him with this.

After all, Necdet can continue casting various elemental attacks after summoning the spectral beast.

"Aacck!"

Necdet's right shoulder was hit by the last Pulsating Earth Bullet as it twisted his skin and flesh… The pain wasn't something he could endure quietly as he screamed in pain.

Magnus wasn't in a good condition as well.

The summoned spectral bird using the blood of a Mythical Beast became powerful. After it was bloated, its presence becomes more visible before exploding with chaotic energy…

The explosion doesn't seem to be powerful as it didn't destroy the stone platform or made the Mana barrier activate. But that is the scary part of it as it didn't affect the physical attributes of the surroundings!

Magnus was met by foreign energy that seeped through his skin and started harming his body…

His body was shaken as he almost vomited some blood. Luckily, he managed to control and stabilize the chaotic energy in time. Perhaps, if he hasn't learned a secret Mana Cultivation Method from the Tower Lord, the foreign energy would have caused havoc within his body.

'Good…'

Magnus felt better as he firmly stood on his ground. He made sure to appear very strong to maintain his image.

He can't appear weak after being assaulted by Necdet's mysterious attacks.

'As long as I have this mask, I won't lose…'

Magnus chanted in his mind as he decided to end the match against Necdet.

'Water Prison…'

As the latter was still in pain after being hit by the spinning bullet made of earth, he was unable to dodge or block Magnus' simple water prison.

As soon as Necdet became unconscious, Magnus immediately canceled the Mana Art not waiting for the referee to order him.

It didn't take long before the referee confirmed Necdet's safety as Magnus' first victory was announced. Then, Necdet was taken by the guards to interrogate.

'Using the blood of Mythical Beasts that is extremely scarce within the Black Tower Organization is prohibited… I wonder who gave that to him.' Magnus couldn't help but wonder.

The Mythical Beast's blood is so precious and they are something that couldn't even be bought with money. It has so many uses and Necdet wasted it just to try and kill him.

Perhaps, if Necdet offered it to Magnus in exchange for losing the match, he would immediately agree.

Magnus may not be able to use the blood of the Mythical Beast immediately but once he gathered enough strength or resources, he would surely have a better use for it and not just for a weak Soul Projection. This kind of technique can only manifest the aura of the Mythical Beast after all. It can intimidate Magical Beasts but against Mana Practitioners, it could only attack their internal energy.

It may be very useful at some point but there are better ways to use the blood of Mythical Beasts.

After this incident, several duels passed and no one challenged Magnus again. Although it's very alluring to defeat the disciple of the Tower Lord, they know that it will not be easy.

Everyone can still remember how Magnus held the spectral bird's beak and stopped it from getting away… The illusory figure of the bird was probably 10 times bigger than Magnus himself!

The sight of him unmoving by that attack remained in their mind as they decided to avoid challenging him for now.

"In the first stage, Nadia versus Elena!"

Vincent's attention was caught as Elena was challenged by another female mana practitioner.

As soon as the battle started, Elena acted the same way as before.

She's still using Tier 2 Mana Bullets to continuously assault her opponent. Perhaps, this woman would only stop using this technique if she lost even once…

'Her Mana Capacity is probably over a thousand units or she has a very unique Mana Recovery technique.' Vincent thought.

As he was enjoying the battle, someone suddenly came to him with a letter in his hand. Vincent doesn't know this person so he was curious and remained quiet.

"Vincent… I'm Sir Alexander's servant. This letter is about the promise he made to you." The young man said as he handed over the letter.

"Promise? Ahh… Is it about the airship?" Vincent said as he took the letter.

He wanted to ask the man to read it for him but he immediately left.

'Hey… Can't you see I'm blind? How am I supposed to read his letter?'
