Chapter 448 Intention



Tara has previously partnered with two Unnumbered Celestials that had previously attacked their city. They were doing really fine with their recruitment but all of a sudden, Tara decided to leave them to do something else.

"Wait… Perhaps it was really Tara?" Vincent muttered as he called for Leon, the Patriarch of the Zemin Clan.

The man had previously mentioned that they were attacked by a Celestial and some of their items were destroyed. Leon thought that Vincent was the one who ordered this Celestial but of course, he denied it at that time since he knows that the Celestials working for him wouldn\'t be that aggressive.

However, Vincent suddenly felt that it might really be Tara who had attacked them during that time.

As for the reason why she did that, he has no idea at all.

"They\'re here…" Yulia announced as she looked outside.

It didn\'t take long before Leon, together with Lesley, entered his residence.

At this time, he already finished contracting with six more Celestial Beings.

Currently, there are a total of 17 Celestials Beings in his city. This is certainly a huge number making everyone feel safer even though they have enemies that even the Tower Lord would have a hard time with.

"You\'ve called for us, Sir Vincent?" Leon asked while bowing slightly…

Vincent is surrounded by several Celestial Beings right now so he couldn\'t help but feel a bit nervous…

"Oh! It\'s really them… I can tell that he has a similar aura to the people that Tara encountered before."

"Hmm… You\'re right."

Alpha and Beta said after seeing the two members of the Zemin Clan.

"Pardon?" Leon was confused so Vincent immediately explained what happened.

As soon as they confirmed that the one who attacked them was really a Celestial working for Vincent, they couldn\'t help but feel aggrieved as they started to recount what happened at that time without needing Vincent to ask them.

"So she just targeted your artifacts related to a goddess and left?" Vincent repeated.

Leon nodded as he added.

"That\'s right… However, after that incident, we were unable to properly sleep during our journey. We were worried that another Celestial may attack us. It was such a terrible experience. We\'re really thankful that you accepted us in your city after arriving here."

"Right… Right… I understand. Don\'t worry, I won\'t be sending you out… I\'ll also compensate you for the destroyed artifacts."

"T-there\'s no need! They aren\'t that valuable since we don\'t really know how to activate those things. The only reason we aren\'t disposing of those artifacts was that they\'ve been with us for a long time."

"Perhaps, it\'s something she didn\'t like… I\'m not really sure but there are records left by our Ancestors that Celestial Beings and Deities weren\'t on good terms."

Leon and Lesley replied.

In the end, Vincent still had no idea why Tara did that. It\'s not like they have records of which deity those artifacts are connected to…

She then looked at the Celestials and expressed his opinion.

"Very well… Let\'s just assume that she\'s not missing. Perhaps she has some matters to attend to… She\'s still probably recruiting other Celestial Beings. It\'s not like I\'ve given you a timeframe… I just assumed that you\'ll return once your supply of potions started running out. Maybe she still has potions with her…"

Vincent replied as he put this matter to close.

He knows that he can\'t send the others to search for her. He can only trust that she\'ll be able to return safely… Furthermore, aside from her Celestial Weapon and Armor, he had also provided her with a few Magic Tools and potions…

It\'s probably not that surprising if he says that Tara is her "favorite" Celestial… Not only she was the first to be part of his team, but she was also very mysterious considering how she can contend against higher ranked Celestial.

She is definitely very reliable so Vincent couldn\'t help but like her.

As the Celestials left his residence, he noticed that Lesley didn\'t immediately leave as she seem to have something to say.

Vincent observed her for a moment.

Well, he had almost forgotten her face since he became blind a few days after meeting her.

She still has lightly tanned skin and grey eyes that seem to be unique to the Zemin Clan. Her previous long dark hair, however, was now shorter and seem to be lacking some luster…

"Is there something you want to say?" Vincent asked.

He doesn\'t need to be polite to her so he just directly asked without even formally addressing her.

Lesley didn\'t seem to like it as she replied.

"Are you still mad about what happened before? You\'re not that petty to bear some grudge against me, right? I was just foolish and young at that time. I can\'t go against my family\'s decision."

\'Ohh… So she\'s playing the victim card…\' Vincent mused as he smirked unconsciously.

Lesley noticed this and frowned.

"Is it funny?"

Vincent immediately shook his head.

"Of course not… I just recalled something. In any case, I\'m not mad at you. I don\'t hate your clan either. If I do, you guys will still be outside this city…" Vincent explained matter of factly.

​ "Y-you\'re right…"

"Mhmm… Is that all you want to say? If it is, you can leave now so I can start with my work…" Vincent said. He can tell that Lesley still has something to say but she was hesitating so he was pushing her out to make her spill whatever she wanted to say.

Vincent\'s decision was right… As soon as he said this, Lesley could no longer hold on and finally stated her real reason for staying.

"Since you\'re going to work, is there something I can help you with? I\'ve recently advanced into an Archmage and I\'m quite confident with my crafting skills as well."

"Hmm? I don\'t need your help… I also have secrets I needed to keep, so no… You can go ask Yulia for a job if you want to be of help…"

"This… I… Then, can you give me work that will get me closer to the Tower Lord? I really respect him a lot ever since I attended the academy… It would be my honor to serve him… If you can recommend me, I will—I mean you can request anything from me and I\'ll fulfill it to the best of my ability."

Lesley stuttered for a bit but she still announced her real intention and showed her sweetest smile at the end of her sentence.
