Chapter 590 Teresa

While the Nidite City was shrouded in the war brought by the Black Magic Organization and the Martial Arts Alliance, Vincent had finally reached the Main Peak of this secretive organization.

A week had already passed so Faviona and Dianne should've settled most of the matters regarding those people who were affected by the corruption brought by the people of the Creed.

At this time, Vincent's group alighted from a carriage and they have to walk the stairs leading to the peak of a mountain if they want to see the Star Garden Peak.

Ahem… Vincent cleared his throat as he looked at the woman behind him.

"You didn't leave with the carriage? I didn't think that you'll be following us till here." Vincent spoke with a hint of amusement in his tone.

He was talking to Nerissa who was supposedly guarding the Eternal Sun Peak. Considering that many experts have died at their peak, shouldn't she protect it with her teacher?

Your Peak is lacking security!

Vincent wanted to remind her but chose not to.

At this point, Nerissa smiled at him since she understands his concern.

"It's fine… The Sage told me to ask for a Technician from the Main Peak. We're lacking a few high-level Automatons. The technicians in the peak are only capable of repairing or making Gold-Tier Automatons."

"I see…" Vincent nodded as he no longer asked questions. He then allowed Nerissa to lead the group.

They met a few guards who wanted to stop them but after recognizing Nerissa, they no longer bothered checking their identities and allowed them to continue…

"Just how many steps are here?" Vincent asked in exasperation after seeing the unending stairs going upwards.

"Don't worry, there are three resting points so you can enjoy the view of the mountains..." Nerissa replied with a chuckle.

Vincent really wanted to rest as he had spent quite a lot of Pseudo-Celestial Energy going here since they'd encountered several Savage Beasts and some renegade manipulators.

Because he didn't want to waste their time dealing with these matters, he would immediately use the powers of the Tome of Glutonny to finish them off.

This action consumed plenty of energy.

If he just allowed the Tome to use its reserve energy, it would take a lot of time and there's a high chance of failure if the target is at its full strength.

After about an hour, they finally arrived at the first checkpoint where they could choose to rest… There are a few empty cottages that they could use so Vincent didn't hesitate to choose one.

However, before he could even enter, he had an uneasy sense of foreboding as he looked at the stairs…

"Celestials…" Vincent muttered as the group glanced at the two beautiful Celestial Beings who were going down the stairs.

Unlike the scholarly vibe that Vincent felt from the Celestial Beings in the Eternal Sun Peak, the two in front of him feel like some sort of assassins that were trying hard to hide their bloodlust.

The two are wearing tight-fit clothes that cover their whole body up to their necks. The clothes perfectly accentuate their well-proportioned body and Vincent couldn't help but take a few more looks at them… In addition to that, they are both carrying a one-handed sword and he can tell that they are Celestial Weapons.

One of them has long, wavy, pale blond hair parted down the middle and showing a faint smile to Vincent…

The other one was a bit skinny and seem like a pre-adolescent girl with short brown hair.

As they held their weapons, Vincent suddenly recalled the tradition of the Celestial Beings in the Star Garden Peak!

That is to seek a battle!

Vincent felt a headache as he can already tell what was about to happen.

He looked at Luna and Agatha and they seem to have realized the current situation as well.

Nevertheless, no one acted rashly as Vincent looked at Nerissa.

Unfortunately, the latter just shrugged as she can't control the Celestial Beings as well.

'Tsk… I hope that this can be resolved without having to fight each other.' Vincent inwardly sighed as he decided to stop the Celestials.

Of course, he didn't appear without any weapon in his hands. He unbuttoned his cloak and revealed the holster on his chest.

As soon as they saw his pistol, he immediately caught their attention. Seeing that he got the reaction he wanted, he calmly spoke to the two.

"I'm Vincent from Black Tower. May I know your names, Celestials?"

At this question, the Celestials looked at him with interest and replied.

"I'm Teresa… this is my friend, Claire. We will be fighting against your contracted Celestials to see if they're corrupted by the Overseer. Don't interfere."

Vincent almost choked after hearing her words.

It's really the Number 2 and Number 10 Celestials!

He can tell that they both possess a Celestial Armor and Celestial Weapon.

On his side, on the other hand, only Luna has a Celestial Armor. As for Agatha, she's carrying three Legendary Weapons that could hopefully balance her lack of Celestial Item.

Vincent turned to Luna and asked… "Are you going to fight them?"

Luna thought for a moment before she gently nodded.

"I don't think that it will take a long time. Don't worry." Luna added.

This confused Vincent for a bit but Luna suddenly flicked her fingers and the Bloodstone Armament suddenly floated beside her.

Teresa and Claire suddenly frowned as soon as they saw the glowing red stone appear. They weren't sure what it was but they felt something familiar from it…

Finally, Teresa looked at Luna and spoke.

"Is that a Demihuman's treasure?"

As expected of Celestial Number 2, she realized the origin of the Armament so easily.

"Yes… Let's see if you're already strong enough to ignore its power." Luna replied as her lips curled up. She's filled with confidence since she can't feel an overwhelming Celestial Energy from the

On the other hand, Teresa remained calm as she glanced to her side.

"I don't even need to act… She's already more than enough…"
