Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

On the next day, their group went to find a suitable place to live in.

With Professor Turhan's guarantee, they were able to purchase an old estate worth 9,000 Mana Crystals. It was quite expensive for its size but they have no choice since they are at the First Tower's area of protection.

Every piece of land here was truly expensive. Of course, the place was already quite cheap compared to the others since it was far from the important shops within the city.

Furthermore, this estate is facing the desolate plains… There was almost no greenery that can be seen on this side of the city.

Nevertheless, Vincent thought that this is still a good choice since there is still a clean well they can use. A few renovations together with a few servants would make this place lively.

They also have to find a very good source of income from now on. Yulia and Severin spent half of their savings to contribute to the purchase after all.

They can't just keep spending their savings since they'll be broke in just a couple of months if this continued.

At first, Vincent only thought of upgrading or enhancing items and selling them to the market to earn money. However, now that Yulia and Severin are here, they might even be able to consider opening a shop themselves.

Severin was hired by the Zemin Clan as a Poison Expert but he is still considered an alchemist and partly physician. He can certainly make potions if he has the tools and ingredients.

Yulia, on the other hand, is a strong Adept Mage. She can easily lead the security of their place and their future shop…

"I'll leave the matters of this estate to the both of you… I'm planning to visit the Black Tower now." Vincent said. Even though the start of the special class is still in a couple of days, he can already inform the management of the tower about his arrival and arrange his student robe and emblem.

"I understand, Vincent… Right, we will be placing our placard at the main gate… What should be the name of this small estate?" Yulia asked.

This small estate is not even a quarter of Professor Turhan's estate. Nevertheless, there is still a total of 20 rooms and four halls inside… Giving it a name should just be proper.

"Ugh… I'm not good at naming. Do you have suggestions?" Vincent said after scratching his head.

He just named his mithril sword a Black Sword after all. He already knows that he can't be trusted with this matter.

At this point, Severin joined the conversation.

"How about Justice Abode? Celestial Abode? No---Immortal Palace?"

"That's too much… We're not some kind of a reclusive expert or a powerful sect. Let's just call it Kayser Residence…" Yulia suggested but she immediately realized something as she closed her mouth in silence.

"Well, that's not right. Sir Vincent will feel burdened since we will also contribute to the estate. Hmm… How about this, Vincent is definitely a genius of the younger generation… Furthermore, he has two Celestial Beings and two more talented individuals willing to follow him, we are basically the stars of our generation… Let's just agree with Stellar Residence." Severin said with enthusiasm.

"…"

"Hmm…"

After considering for a while, no one really suggested a better name so they finally agreed with the man's suggestion.

"Stellar Residence it is… I'll let you handle this matter. We should also improve the defensive measures. I'll try to help with that after I finished my matters within the Black Tower."

After saying this, Vincent and Rem left the estate as they went straight to the Black Tower. Luckily, the city has a decent mode of transportation. There were a lot of horse-drawn carriages that they could use so it didn't take that long to arrive at the tower.

Thanks to Professor Turhan's arrangement, he easily entered the tower as Rem was left outside to wait for him.

Seeing that he would attend the special class for people with disabilities, an attendant immediately assisted him to complete the student registration process.

Soon, he was given a white badge with the emblem of the tower and a magic robe for students. The process was very smooth since everyone was already prearranged and he only needed to show up.

After confirming a few things like the location of the classroom and the name of the professor, Vincent finally left the mysterious tower.

"You look tense, Vincent…" Rem commented after seeing Vincent's expression.

"Ugh… I should really learn to control my emotion."

"What happened?"

"Nothing… This tower just feels too mysterious. My soul sense is being limited. I can only sense about 3 meters around me. I'm not used to it so that's probably why I was a bit pale…"

"Just a 3-meter range? No wonder…" Rem nodded as she recalls that Vincent should be capable of sensing over a 300-meter range if he pushes his limit.

If it suddenly shrunk to three meters, Vincent would certainly lose his cool for a brief moment. It's already good that he was able to remain calm and complete the registration process.

"So… After getting out, did it return to normal?" Rem curiously asked.

"Yes… I'm all good now. Let's first walk around here for a bit. I want to familiarize this place."

"That's a good idea."

The two then started checking the nearby shops of the tower. There's an auction house, potion store, weapon shop, Hunter Organization Branch, restaurants, and even a bathhouse.

Vincent curiously asked around and learned that the Hunter Organization is indeed a consortium made to kill Savage Beasts. Whether you are a martial expert, mana practitioner, soul cultivator, or any profession that could kill a beast, you can join the organization.

Furthermore, this hunter organization is what the Black Tower uses to gather beasts' cores and their parts for their supply in research or private use.

The organization would accept missions from the Tower as they both benefit from each other. Although it can be very dangerous, the Black Tower is quite generous in its payment so this organization flourishes as they have branches throughout the 36 cities.

After being satisfied with their stroll, Vincent felt a bit tired so he decided to return to their estate.

After a few minutes, the two arrived in front of the estate's main gate.

"Vincent, about the matters that I learned from Yulia…" Rem hesitated.

"Don't worry, I will look for more information inside the Tower. We won't be forcing Tara to share what she knows."

Hearing this, Rem finally smiled as she looked at the placard atop the main gate and read it.

'Stellar Residence…'
