The Followers of Qheglena arrived at the Stellar Residence safely under Rem and Yulia's protection.
They also didn't gather much attention since Vincent had given them hooded shawls that can be used to hide their presence. It is a level lower than what he had given to Tara and the others but it certainly has decent effects.
It doesn't have a stealth mode or invisibility effect but it can simply avoid people from standing out with a weak anti-tracking skill.
[ Defiance Hooded Shawl ]
[ Quality: Unique ]
[ Number of Enhancents: 9/10
Durability: 90/90
Description: A fleece, magic-resistant cloak that protects the wearer from most tracking or detection skills. It is created from the wools of Demon-Eyed Goat and other alchemical products.
Remarks: It has a very low chance to increase its quality. ]
[ Skills:
Weak Presence: In exchange for 10 units of mana, the skill can help the wearer weaken their existence. Effective for 15 minutes.
Slightly Untraceable: In exchange for 13 units of mana, the skill can cover the wearer with a barrier to block any tracking skills. Effective for 5 minutes. ]
As the remark says, it has a very low chance of improving its quality. Well, it was already quite impressive to reach the Unique Rank since it was only an uncommon rank when he acquired these items.
The batch of shawls were items that Rem bought for him. It was just being sold for 20 gold coins a piece so she decided to purchase 30 of them at once.
She did this since, during that ti, he was so frustrated about being blind and wanted to just spend his days in his room grinding his skill levels. He ordered Rem, Tara, and even Yulia to purchase a bunch of magic tools expensive or inexpensive and this item is one of those.
Of course, with his System's Feature called Enhancent Erasure, he could simply remove all the enhancents in his selected item and continue grinding.
That way, a single item can allow him to grind experience for his Enhancent Skill.
However, that wouldn't be practical since enhancing nurous items might be more helpful in the future like what is happening right now.
With the sudden increase of people within his residence, the magic items in his Obsidian Treasure Box might finally find their owners. Furthermore, handing them out once they did sothing for the benefit of the group might also increase the loyalty of these people to him or to his Stellar Residence.
Anyway, he had also discovered that an item has its own limit as well.
This allowed him to understand why he couldn't Ascend or Enhance the items sotis no matter how much energy he spent.
Perhaps, Unique or Epic Rank is already the limit of the materials used to create them?
For example, the Steel Spoon can only reach a Rare Rank based on his observation and he would always fail if he tried ascending them. Nevertheless, if he continued ascending it 20 more tis, he would get this remark saying that 'It has a very low chance to increase its quality.'
Vincent can only think of one thod to break its limitation… and that is the Transcending Skill that he hasn't gotten yet.
"Sir Vincent, I've finished setting up the barrier. Since there is already a formation arranged by Lady Yulia, I've just amplified it using my gift and added a few counterasures in case it was still broken…"
"Counterasures?" Vincent repeated after hearing Vel's report.
The latter then explained the node he created within the estate that can attack intruders. He realized that all of Yulia's formation was focused on defensive ones after all. To be safe, he added an offensive formation and taught Vincent how it works in case necessary.
"You did all of this just now? You didn't have to hurry… I'm sure you're hungry. You can just go to the kitchen and get so food. Since we don't have maids or chefs here, I can only ask you to get it."
Vincent said. He knows that these people were skinny after all. He didn't expect that Vel would actually complete the formation in one sitting. He felt bad after hearing what he had just done while he was contemplating his plans.
"Oh~ Don't worry, Sir Vincent… There's soone with us who can cook. Celestial Qheglena had praised her once for her skills. I'm sure you'll be satisfied as well." Vel replied with confidence.
As he left to make his al, Vincent went outside and checked the formation that he had just set up.
After being satisfied with the result of Vel's work, Vincent felt quite sleepy as he retired to rest.
Studying and working within the tower is not as simple as it seems after all.
***
Another week had passed as Vincent busied himself with his study and work at the appraisal hall.
At the mont, he's no longer that worried about the money he needed to participate in the coming auction next week.
They have actually created a store where they could sell various products!
The store is just connected to their residence so there was no issue about finding another plot of land.
Then, they decided to na it Beacon Magic Shop after Severin accidentally created a candle that would burn almost endlessly during one of his experints.
After enhancing it to Epic Rank, a single candle can burn for a year before it runs out. Well, as long as they supply it with 'fuel', it wouldn't technically burn out so it could continuously burn until they decided to put out the fire.
Right now, they are selling two products that Severin and three other Followers of Qheglena had collaborated to make.
One of them is a Creeper Leash and the other is Scented Wisteria Powder.
"I can't believe that these two products would be very popular here…" Vincent muttered after appraising the two items.
He previously thought that only items like Tier 3 Pills, Mid-Grade Potion, or Epic Items could attract custors in this large city.
He didn't expect that a leash that can restrict a few Savage Beasts and powder that could ta or attract them would be so popular!
