Vincent did not immediately appraise the Celestial Dagger as he expressed his gratitude to Tara. This item is extremely valuable. This is something that not even a genuine Celestial Being could possess.

"I made a promise… So you have to supply me with that strange potion of yours." Tara replied with a rare smile on her face. It seems that their decision to deal with the Celestial Beast was truly fruitful for the two.

"Of course. I'll work on that after I rested." Vincent said as he grasped the dagger.

In a battle against powerful Mana Arts Practitioners, possessing strong weapons or pieces of equipment is extremely important. After all, the number of Mana Arts that someone could learn in their lifetime is not infinite. It's already an incredible feat to master 10 Mana Arts in your lifetime.

Furthermore, there is also a matter of mastery which is the most important thing than just learning a Mana Art.

Even if you decided to force yourself to learn 20 Mana Arts, if they are all just at the beginner stage, then it would be useless when faced against a practitioner with 5 or even 3 Perfected Mana Arts suitable in battle.

Vincent clearly knows the difference between a Beginner State Mana Arts and a Perfected State. His Shrouded Steps is only a Tier 1 Movement Technique but it was faster and more covert than many other techniques which could even surprise a Celestial Being.

Anyway, mastering each Mana Arts takes a lot of time and requires talent. This is also the reason why Magic Tools or Weapons are created. This way, Mana Arts Practitioners can increase their strength by several folds.

The dagger in his hands right now will certainly become a weapon that will improve his battle style. After all, it is a weapon where its durability is not something he has to be worried about, unlike his Soul-Forged Ironbark Cane which could easily be damaged by stronger opponents.

The three of them continued chatting for a while as the two shared their experience within the Celestial Mountain. It was quite interesting since they encountered numerous genius Mana Arts Practitioners in that place hoping to discover the secrets or treasures of the Celestial Beasts.

Aside from that, Vincent also asked them about their opinion regarding his Synthetic Mana Core. He already knows that they could sense his circulation of energy and Marin must've noticed this as well.

"Right… I'm also curious about that, Vincent. Is it possible that you're a child of a Celestial Being?" Rem asked but her face shows that she wasn't serious about it.

"No… I'm sure that my parents are normal. It's related to that Mana Upheaval Potion that I got before. After modifying that potion a little, it not only increased my Mana Capacity but also helped me create a mutated core that could harness both Aura and Mana at the same time."

Vincent explained. He recalled that during that time, the system notified him about his Mana Source was being combined with his Soul Force which is equivalent to his Aura.

"Rem wasn't serious. Celestial Beings like us have different physiques and we're not capable of having a baby." Tara paused for a moment before she continued.

"If it was before we became a Celestial Being, it might be possible."

This left Vincent really curious.

'Does it mean that they were normal humans before? So after they became Celestials, their physique changed, and no longer capable of reproduction? Or do they have a different method?'

Vincent felt worried. Since he has a Synthetic Celestial Core, does it mean that he could no longer have a child as well?

Although he's only 15 years old right now. His mental age is older than that.

Though he doesn't have plans about having a child right now, he might have to consider his future as well.

It would be a shame if the Kayser bloodline ends with him.

Perhaps, his thoughts can be easily seen so Tara immediately added.

"You're not a Celestial Being and you won't ever be. There is just nothing in this world that can trigger your evolution." Tara explained.

"That's true. That Marin was probably just curious since your fluctuations a while ago were similar to a failed product which weren't supposed to be in this world." Rem explained.

"Failed product… Me?" Vincent repeated.

"That's right. We're unsure about your secrets but don't worry, we won't pry into it. It's not that important anyway." Rem added.

After a long chat, Rem and Tara left Vincent's room to finally have a good rest. Although Vincent was still curious about his new core, he was even more excited to learn more about the dagger in his hands.

Well, he doesn't really like a short dagger as a weapon. He lacks some strength before so he was quite fond of it. But now that his physique had improved tremendously, he'd rather learn Mana Arts like Surging Palm Strike or learn some Sword Arts.

Nevertheless, since he obtained this dagger, he would have to study a bit more about dagger techniques so he won't look like a child swinging a dangerous weapon.

Well, he knows that if he really met some weapon experts, he would surely be scolded for his lack of skills.

"Appraise…"

Vincent muttered softly as he triggered one of his system skills.

Since he previously appraised the Cryogenic Sleep Chamber or the Armor, Vincent was confident that he could appraise this dagger with his Advanced Appraisal Skill.

Vincent's eyes went wide after finally seeing the stats of his Celestial Weapon.

This is his first time seeing so many attributes!

? Although the number could not compare to a +9 or +10 item that he personally enhanced, the number of attributes can set it off.

He finally understood why the Celestial Weapons are extremely rare and many people wanted to obtain them.

He then tried to slowly pour his Pseudo Celestial Energy as he planned to get used to it.

Ding!

Suddenly, Vincent heard the familiar notification sound of his system.

[ Would you like to bind the item to you? ]

[ Warning: Removing the binding status will require special material. ]

This notification confused Vincent as he looked at the options Yes or No in front of him.

'Bind the item? What's this?' Vincent furrowed his brows as he wanted to call for Rem or Tara if they have heard about it.

'Ah…'

Vincent then recalled what Tara had mentioned before, Celestial Items are fated to someone already and she needed some time to remove them and become undetectable to that fated someone.

If he would make a guess, this binding is actually similar to the 'fated' that she said. Tara had to remove that binding so she could gift this dagger to him!

'Does it mean that the dagger can't be used if I didn't bind it?' Vincent was curious so he selected 'No' for now.

He then tried to wave the dagger and confirmed that its sharpness and all its stats are still there.

However, he discovered that every time he tried to pour a bit of his energy into the dagger, he was getting the same notification. If he answered 'No', his energy will be rejected by the dagger as well. It means that he won't get to use the effect of the sharpness boost if he keeps refusing.

[ Would you like to bind the item to you? ]

"Yes…" Vincent no longer refused as he completed the binding process. He felt a bit of his warmth leave his body as it went to the dagger somehow.

It was a weird sensation but it happened for a short time.

This time, after appraising the item, there is another line before the description tab.

[ Bound: Vincent Kayser. ]

Vincent's face lit up after confirming the changes.

He then decided to experiment a bit with his newly acquired dagger. After a few minutes, he felt really sleepy and decided to just call it a day.

On the next day, he decided to walk around the town to purchase a few potions. However, before he could leave the inn, someone from the Zemin Clan approached him.

"Sir Vincent, Lady Yulia wanted to speak with you. It was regarding the medallion you've brought and the promise made by the Patriarch." The man said respectfully.

This person has no idea what it is all about so he curiously looked at Vincent. After all, not anyone could be invited by Lady Yulia.

"Hmm… I'll meet her after buying a few things in the market…" Vincent replied as he knows that they would stay here until the next day because of the Adept Mage's health condition. There was no hurry to discuss the matters of his engagement early in the morning.

Furthermore, he heard that this town has a Master Craftsman! Perhaps, the Mithril Ore that his system has given him can finally be used!
