Chapter 541 Skill Book

The Kayser Clan has been involved with the Celestial Beings in the First Rapture. One proof of this is the keepsake of their clan. It is an item that has very advanced technology that shouldn't have appeared more than 500 years ago.

Although their clan has already declined and couldn't even be called a clan anymore, the treasures or relics of their glorious past still remain and are still under her care.

Vivian had also compared the words of the older generation of their family to the ancient texts that she read and confirmed that the Celestial Beings were truly involved in the appearance of their clan.

"What kind of similarities are you trying to say?" Vincent asked.

Right now, he's also thinking about how the system helped him with the evolution of his Mana Core. It had become Synthetic Celestial Core with the help of the system but perhaps, it was also thanks to his body which allowed him to receive such help from the system.

Perhaps, if it wasn't for the uniqueness of this bloodline, it wouldn't even be possible in the first place.

"Our physical qualities are quite unique… Although we aren't as great as the Celestial Beings, our bodies can also ignore the powers coming from otherworldly beings. However, in exchange for that, we can't sense the elemental essence of mana. It means that we can't transform our Mana into other elements."

These words struck Vincent's mind as he finally understood why he was unable to advance his progress in Mana Arts.

He's currently stuck at Tier 2 Mana Arts with no hope of advancing to Tier 3.

"This…"

Surprisingly, he didn't feel disheartened about this. Instead, he felt like he was freed. He felt relieved after discovering this abnormality in his physique. It wasn't because he was untalented but because his physique is unique.

"You look like you're fine with it?" Vivian asked after seeing Vincent's reaction.

"Yes… It's enough for me to know the reason why. In any case, I already received a lot of blessings." Vincent replied mysteriously.

"Is that so? In any case, I compared our blood to those of the Celestials and confirmed that the ancient texts were telling the truth. Our Kayser bloodline was most likely made to help the Celestials deal with the otherwordly beings… You can say that it is our mission to eliminate those beings but since our family declined to this state… Our ancestors probably failed in the end."

Vivian said with a weak voice.

"I don't think that it would be our fault though… Well, can you at least tell me about these otherworldly beings that you mentioned?" Vincent asked.

Vivian nodded at this as she didn't think of keeping it a secret from Vincent.

"They're the beings that followed the Celestial Beings to this land. You may not believe this but there are actually other civilizations out there that weren't humans."

"I can actually believe that since there are Barbarians as well. Those giants with red skin are too different from humans… There are also those members of the Sea Race…" Vincent reminded her.

"You're right… I'm about to tell you something about them. These Barbarians seem to be products of otherworldly beings as well… They have only appeared after the First Rapture so they have a short history… As for the Sea Race, they are the abnormalities of this world." Vivian explained.

Vincent wasn't too interested in this but he took note of it nonetheless.

Vivian then continued…

"You don't seem too surprised, huh… Alright, the otherworldly beings are creatures that can be as strong as the Celestial Beings or maybe even stronger than them considering how the Celestials' power has declined so much after the Second Rapture."

"So you're also aware of the existence of the Demihumans, Xonid Legion, and the others?"

Vincent could no longer take it so he just said it.

Vivian's eyes almost popped out after hearing Vincent's words.

"Have you also read about the Demihumans and the other? Are they also existing in the Tudor Kingdom?"

"No, I've encountered them before. Furthermore, my Celestial Beings can tell me about them…" Vincent said.

"Is that even possible? Aren't they restricted by some sort of power? They shouldn't be allowed to speak about their past and other important things since it was prohibited by their Overseer."

Vincent smiled after seeing her reaction.

"You're right… However, I have my own ways to make them speak… Now that I'm somewhat clear about my background, can you now tell me about the reason why your organization made contact with the Sea Race and even triggered them to appear on the surface and take a piece of land?" Vincent asked.

​ "It's complicated… The Sea Race has a very important role so they can't simply remain in their territory… You'll know more about it once you've accompanied Faviona to the Main Peak." Vivian replied.

Vincent sighed after hearing this but he already felt thankful to her after learning about the members of their clan.

If he would make a guess, the reason why he had appeared in the Tudor Kingdom was because of the Main Peak… Perhaps, they have decided to establish another sect and unknowingly sent a member of the Kayser Clan there…

After all, not even Sage Vivian was aware of another Kayser existing in that land.

"Here… This book will allow you to learn a Mind Cultivation Technique up to the Platinum Tier." Vivian said as she handed over a book to Vincent.

He only checked the title of the book and appraised it briefly. He also wanted to see whether it could trigger his system's Learning Skill.
