Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Ersin felt that this news was too good to be true. But considering the efforts they made, these people who had been hiding from them for the past two years might've been too overconfident already and were easily recognized and followed by these nobodies in the streets.

Anyway, he doesn't seem to be in a hurry as he continued asking the young man about the details of the event.

After being satisfied, he finally nodded in acknowledgment.

"Hmm… Good! Let's not delay any longer. But kid, if we found out that you're lying, you would be punished for tricking us."

"Don't worry, Sir! We really worked hard to find them in the streets. We just want to earn money… You really have to hurry now or they might escape."

"Very well! Once we confirmed their identity, we will give you the reward whether we capture them or not… and no, they won't be escaping anytime soon." Ersin said as he signaled for everyone to bring out their flutes.

Severin didn't think too much of it at first but as soon as they completed a tune, the Forest Wyverns who were previously on top of the Black Tower came rushing at them!

They actually have a way to call these mounts from afar. No wonder they were the ones assigned to chase those 'criminals'.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, Steward Severin. It seems that we no longer have to search your residence. If your young master finished his training in the academy, tell him to find me if he wanted to join the Dragon Riders…"

"Oh! I will definitely tell him, Sir Ersin. Please be careful on your way."

With that said, the Dragon Riders left after leaving dust everywhere.

As soon as they left, Yulia also appeared beside Severin as the two looked at the figures in the sky.

"Those are indeed Forest Wyverns… They were rare Savage Beasts in the kingdom… I didn't think that they could be used as a mount." Yulia said in admiration after seeing the mossy wyverns just now.

"That's true… Aside from their cores, they were only being hunted for their meat and talons for crafting. We really have to learn more." Severin commented as he closed their gate after giving an approving nod to the young man who had made the report to Ersin's squad.

They didn't talk with each other but their eyes have an unusual glint in them.

Needless to say, this was all done according to their plans.

After returning to the main hall, Caesus welcomed the two as he worriedly asked about the situation.

"The Dragon Riders should be able to catch up to Lar and the others soon. With the speed of their mount, it'll only take them 5 to 10 minutes at most."

Severin commented as he calculated the speed of Dragon Rider Squad and Lar's carriage.

"I guess we can only trust and leave this matter to Celestial Tara." Caesus replied still with a hint of worry in his voice.

After being subjected to various experiments within the 15th Tower, he had seen several corpses of Unnumbered Celestial Beings. He knows that they weren't omnipotent beings and could still die if they met a stronger opponent or they got weakened by a large degree due to various circumstances relating to their Celestial Energy.

"Celestial Tara isn't weak. Don't worry. She can handle this since she has both celestial armor and a weapon. Furthermore, for some reason, Sir Vincent's potions work well for them. She should've brought a few of them as far as I know."

Yulia commented.

"Hmm… I heard from the researchers that potions, pills, and other drugs don't normally work for the Celestials. Whether it's good or bad, they shouldn't work because of their unusual bodies. I wonder what's different from Sir Vincent's potions?" Caesus muttered what was in Yulia and Severin's minds.

However, they won't be asking such things to Vincent.

Caesus realized this too so he immediately added. "Oh~ I'm not trying to learn his secrets… I was just impressed by his skills."

Severin just smiled at him while Yulia decided to visit the inner hall of the estate where the other Followers of Qheglena are currently hiding.

The inner hall is where the strongest barrier formation is located to ensure that they won't get detected by most detection or investigative arts.

As for Caesus, he doesn't have to worry that much since his physique is quite special. Although he doesn't have decent combat capabilities, his wits and his body with natural anti-detection ability can help him in this kind of situation.

"I hope that this will buy us a lot of time until we get a bit stronger…" Caesus muttered as he silently prayed for a good outcome from their operation.

Although they were taken in by the Stellar Residence, they were still thinking of getting revenge on the researchers of the 15th Tower. With Yulia and Severin's guidance, they know that it's only a matter of time before they master their innate gifts and become a threat to the tower.

Furthermore, they know that Vincent and the others also didn't like the Celestial Incarnation Project that the tower was secretly doing. This added to their conviction to completely stop the project and eliminate everyone who was involved.

"They should be catching up unto us by now... Those Forest Wyverns move a lot faster when they know that they were about to hunt…" Lar commented as he drove the carriage as fast as he can.

He was continuously whipping the horses hoping that they could go even faster.

Currently, they were trying to get as far away as possible from the city.

Lar looked behind him and saw his four colleagues who had also learned various martial arts from Yulia. Aside from them, there is also a silent lady who was unusually calm in this situation.

"Hmm?" Lar felt something as he immediately looked above.

As expected, the Dragon Riders were catching up to them… He looked around and found a perfect open battlefield.

It might seem like the worst decision when up against these flying creatures but none of it matters… He believes that as long as Celestial Tara is with them, battling in an open space would be much better for them.

"Everyone. Ready your weapons as we need to welcome them. Celestial Tara will remain inside until she found an opportunity." Lar said as the others answered in unison.

"We're ready!"

As soon as their carriage halted, the five Martial Artists came out with their weapons in hand.
