Soon, the three Celestial Beings fled with all their might as the newly arrived Celestial Being barely made an effort to chase them.

Perhaps, she knows that they weren't planning to attack any non-celestial beings so she decided to be lenient and only struck them a few times without killing them.

However, because of that, Vincent saw the number that was tattooed on her right forearm.

"2-0-2?! Two hundred two?!" Vincent was shocked.

Tara was numbered 999 and she's already so incredible. No wonder this short-haired Celestial could defeat those three that they could only run pathetically.

Vincent clenched his weapon tightly as he noticed that the woman looked at him, or his weapon, strangely.

It was as if she was interested in his weapon!

'Whoa… No matter what, you're a Celestial Being, right? You shouldn't be interested in this…' Vincent mused as the woman started getting closer.

Vincent slowly backed away as he wanted to get near Lady Yulia's group. Since she saved Lesley, they should help him if he's in danger.

"What do you want?"

Vincent bravely asked. Since it was not his first time dealing with a Celestial, he tried to remain composed and reason with her.

"Hand over that Magic Artifact."

Vincent's heart was in his mouth as soon as he heard this.

'Oh no…'

If he would be given a choice, handing over his weapon or his life, he would certainly choose to give his weapon.

However, as far as he knows, Celestial Beings shouldn't be this unreasonable since they have rules based on whatever contract they have.

"Why? I can't give them to you… They're mine." Vincent answered.

This obviously stunned the Celestial Being. From the moment she looked at Vincent, she was already emitting a strange force to suppress him and make him afraid of her. However, it seems that it wasn't too effective against him.

'Is it really because of that Magic Artifact?' She mused for a moment as she looked at the black staff in Vincent's hands.

It was undeniable that the weapon is strange after recalling how it easily destroyed the Great Turtle Shield made from the carapace of a turtle Magic Beast.

As far as she recalls, that Magic Artifact is at the peak of Epic Rank and about to cross the Pseudo-Legendary Rank.

Even if Vincent is a 3-Star Aura Knight, it should not give him enough strength to destroy that forcefully considering that he was still too young.

'Right. It's already strange that he has a very strong soul capable of advancing to this level at such a young age… Hmm… This person has many secrets. I should take him to the palace.' With that in mind, she finally decided to take him away.

Vincent then saw the beautiful woman give a playful smile at him. She's definitely up to something!

Though he would probably enjoy looking at her unblemished and attractive face, he wouldn't want to be with this woman!

"Stop right there!"

Finally, Lady Yulia noticed the abnormality of the situation as she paused at giving first aid to her clansmen.

Anyway, she confirmed that everyone only required a few recovery pills, and some needed rest to recover.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Being Ranked 202 didn't even bother looking at her!

She even rushed quickly and tried to grab Vincent's head!

She was almost flying at this rate!

"You dare! Which Celestial Being are you?! Our Zemin Clan will not tolerate this!" Lady Yulia warned that she can't just let Lesley's savior and fiancé die like this.

Although the latter part is still debatable, he must still be considered as part of the Zemin Clan. With his talents, even if he's lying about the arranged marriage, she wouldn't mind making arrangements with other young girls of their Zemin Clan.

Furthermore, even if Lesley decided to reject him, Yulia was already thinking to introduce her niece to Vincent since she was already nine years old and they only have to wait for a few more years to pass.

'Darkness Mystic Eye… Control!'

Yulia activated her special ability as she assisted Vincent in escaping. Since she has already recovered a bit, the power of her Mystic Eye had certainly increased by a few levels. It's no longer the same as the one she cast to control Florent.

"Annoying!" The Celestial finally spoke as she glanced at Yulia. Vincent managed to get away with his Shrouded Steps thanks to this.

Unfortunately, the short-haired Celestial Being isn't weak.

Boom!

She managed to forcefully destroy Yulia's bindings with a stomp on the ground. She also propelled herself to catch Vincent at the same time! A cloud of dust was created as she vanished from her previous spot.

Too strong!

'This is too unfair!' Vincent gritted his teeth as he gave up. He didn't dare to exchange a few strikes with a Rank 202 Celestial Being. It was far too risky. Anyway, he can still enhance or ascend a new weapon for himself.

What he needed is just some time and he will surely find another weapon with Crush Attribute again. Although it would be difficult considering how he didn't find any when he worked at the Auction House, it's impossible that only one weapon with Crush Attribute has ever existed. There must be others out there.

"Take my weapon then!" Vincent then threw the cane away from him.

However, it wasn't in the Celestial's direction as it landed on the bottom of the hill.

"I changed my mind, I will take you with me." The Celestial Being replied.

"Why?! You--" Vincent was surprised as the Celestial still pounced at him! He did his best to use his Shrouded Steps and barely dodged her hands. Unfortunately, even after being so close to her, his Domain and Soul Pressure did not affect her and she just made a move again.

Thud…

She firmly held Vincent's throat as he finally became vulnerable. He had to remove his ineffective Soul Pressure and Domain and focused all his aura to protect his neck.

"We'll just need to study you for a bit… You'll follow me…" Though it was a beautiful voice directed at him, he only felt scared of it.

"No—" He wanted to say something but her grip tightened.

Vincent shuddered as he break a cold sweat. It seems that he had no choice. He can only close his eyes in resignation.

'Whatever… I'll have my chance…' Vincent thought as he gave up fighting her. Battling against a Rank 202 is still too much for him. It wouldn't be shameful to be defeated by such a powerful being that is considered a legendary being to some.

Furthermore, he has a system that could help him in some way. Even if he lost everything, as long as the Item Awakening System is with him, he would still be able to rise up in the future.

"Let him go. Do you really think that we'll just let you do as you please?" Lady Yulia warned.

This time, Lesley and the other members of the Zemin Clan had already shifted their gazes to Vincent and the Celestial Being.

Lesley was feeling grateful to Vincent after saving her from Joran. Although she's still unaware of the prenatal engagement made by her parents, she immediately requested for all the elders to save this person from the unknown Celestial.

Celestial Beings can be hardly seen so none of them could recognize her or know her affiliation. Since she helped them send the three other Celestial Beings away, they previously guessed that she was from the Arms City or was sent by the Royal Family. However, it doesn't seem to be the case.

"Hmph! I'll bring him to Duke Hansen. If you don't want that, stop me." The short-haired Celestial replied as she decided to leave this place.

Yulia and the others who were about to move suddenly paused as soon as they heard her response.

'The Duke?'

Aside from Grand Knight France, there is also Grand Knight Hansen that is staying in the capital. However, that person should already be on his deathbed. Even Duke France decided to just ignore him when they started the rebellion.

"What do you plan on doing with him?!" Lady Yulia asked as she bit her lip and canceled her Darkness Mystic Eye. She can't decide for the whole clan after all. Fighting against the Duke would not only implicate her but the whole Zemin Clan.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Being didn't answer and only sneered at her. However, her expression suddenly changed as she solemnly looked at the forest nearby. Her gaze turned cold as she released her Celestial Energy making Vincent suffocate…

He immediately circulated his Pseudo Celestial Energy to protect himself as he glanced at the forest where this rude Celestial is looking at.

Before Vincent could understand what was going on, the Celestial Being actually flung him away!

p Bam!

He crashed heavily to the ground as he felt his bones almost breaking. He could only grit his teeth as he tried to take out a vial of potion only to be dismayed as he recalled that his bag was still on the horse.

Clang! Clang!

Sounds of clashing weapons echoed throughout the valley.

Vincent then glanced at the Celestial Being and realized the reason why he was thrown away! It was probably to protect him from the two beautiful female attackers who had just arrived!

'Tara! Rem!' Vincent wanted to call them out but his body was aching and could only shout their names in his mind.

They have finally returned!
