Vincent frowned after hearing Yulia's explanation…
Ignacy is certainly a very important figure not just for him but for the entire Black Tower. Aside from the knowledge that he has, his strength is also something many of them wanted to achieve.
Furthermore, even if he no longer has the Legendary Staff, Ignacy is still a magician capable of manipulating space. He also has deep connections with other large organizations that can be really helpful in the future. This connection can't be ignored since Lola had actually mentioned to him that he even has a connection inside the Demonic Cult.
"Aside from us, who else knows about this?" Vincent asked Yulia seriously.
The latter noticed Vincent's grave expression as she softly replied.
"No one knows about this other than the three of us. Luna strictly reminded me not to leak this information."
"That's good… After all, we don't have a lot of Cryogenic Sleep Chamber… I'm still hesitating, to be honest… What do you think we should do, Yulia?" Vincent asked.
Yulia already knows about the existence of Sleep Chambers after he brought Luna to his team. It means that she already knows how valuable it was.
Yulia bitterly smiled at this as she replied.
"I knew you would ask me… Well, I'm not really sure about Ignacy's wealth but if we cured him and ask for compensation after, he might be able to pay for the loss of the Chamber… Of course, I don't know how wealthy he is so I can't really tell if that's a good idea."
"That's true… He's still the Tower Lord for several decades… He probably has a secret stash of treasures somewhere." Vincent hesitated.
"Hmm… The problem is that if we mention this to the Tower Masters, they might cure him. Or if they asked other Celestials to check Ignacy's condition, they will certainly discover this method to cure him… If they have a spare Cryogenic Sleep Chamber, they will be the ones who will become Ignacy's benefactor."
If they become "the person who saved Ignacy", they will certainly receive Ignacy's favor. Whether this favor is useful or not, the answer is obvious.
'Should I use my armor to cure him? I don't even know when I can get another one of these.' Vincent thought as he can't really order his Celestials to sacrifice their armor like this.
Exploiting them in this manner isn't part of the contract…
Of course, they might agree with such a condition if he put several promises to them but Vincent knows that it's not a good decision to deprive them of their precious equipment.
It means that only his Source Cube can be used.
"I think that we should wait until Tara or at least, the other Celestials have returned." Yulia suddenly said…
"Oh? Tell me what's on your mind."
"I'm just thinking of buying some more time… It's not like we are in a hurry to cure Sir Ignacy… According to Celestial Luna, his current vitality would even allow him to survive for six months even if we don't feed him potions."
"Six months? Isn't that incredible for a human?"
"Well, he's a Grand Magus with heavily mutated mana thanks to his talent in Spatial Magic. He can easily survive as long as he has internal mana…"
"That's really impressive… In any case, we can leave it at that for now… However, I have to visit the Star Garden Peak's territory so I should have an answer before we leave the city."
Vincent replied.
The two chatted for a little bit more as Vincent asked about the situation in Nidite City.
Yulia was the one who had spent a lot of time in that city after all. Thanks to that, Vincent has a clear grasp of the items being traded by the Sea Race…
"About the expedition that we sent to exterminate the Barbarian Race, how was it going?"
"You should probably ask Calidia for that… We only have one person who has Communication Crystal among them and it's connected to the Kayser Tower."
"You're right… I should visit her sometime. Anyway, there shouldn't be an emergency if she's not reporting anything."
Vincent said as he ended his meeting with Yulia…
***
Three more days passed and the traders that went to Nidite City finally returned. It means that the supply has been refilled so Vincent can continue with his Magic Crafting…
He also started his adjustments with the missiles or incendiary shells of his Third Gen Aircraft, Tempest I. After its debut, he noticed a lot of room for improvement and he certainly needed to work on it since there is no other person who can help him with the design.
"You really have an incredible imagination, Vincent… I was already impressed when you showed me the Black Pistol and the Black Rifle, however, I'm even more impressed by this Missile of yours…"
Professor Levent commented after entering his laboratory… She would come here from time to time to see Vincent's progress…
It didn't even take a month for him to advance from a Novice Crafter to a Junior Crafter.
Even without having him take the official advancement test, she knows that Vincent can easily pass it and earn the Junior Crafter emblem. Once a Crafter possessed this title, all his works in the market, even if it was just Common or Uncommon Rank, their value will still go up…
"Professor, even if I have a good imagination, making them into reality is still difficult…" Vincent replied as he stopped working for a moment.
"That's true… You can only try and gain more experience to make it happen. Well, I've actually come here to give you an opportunity to improve…"
"Oh? Then I'm all ears, Professor…" Vincent replied with excitement… Although he's a bit tired, he knows that Levent wouldn't joke around about this. He knows that this is very important…
"Good… I'm telling you this since I heard that you're about to visit Star Garden Peak… To be honest, I know someone in that organization. She's also the one who gave me the location of the Sleeping Chamber. If you mention my name, she will certainly meet you."
"Really?! I didn't know you have such a connection, Professor… May I know her name?" Vincent asked excitedly as she knows that a person capable of giving such information is definitely the real deal.
"Of course, her name is Vivian Kayser…"
