Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer
Chapter 348 Awakened

Just like the other stages of the Item Awakening System. Vincent was able to get a reward after leveling his Item Transcendence Skill up once.

The reward that he received was a card related to the fourth stage or the last stage of the sequence, a clue to the next sequence he'll get once he leveled up this skill to nine!

[ Item Awakening Card ]

[ Description: A one-time use card that awakens any item with a 100% success rate. A successful Awakening provides sentience to the selected item. Depending on the overall quality of the target, the level of sentient can be low-level to high-level. ]

[ Remarks: All awakened items by the user will automatically have 100 points in loyalty that can increase or decrease depending on the wielder. ]

This card had truly surprised him.

Providing sentience to the item is like giving life to an object! It is something that he had never thought he would be capable of doing!

After analyzing this, Vincent was now able to understand why his system was called Item Awakening System in the first place.

Apparently, all the system skills that he received before were just a preparation for the real awakening skill at the last stage of the Awakening Sequence!

It was such a huge revelation and he couldn't help but be excited to level up his Transcendence Skill.

It was unfortunate that grinding this skill is too difficult considering the consumption of Pseudo-Celestial Energy and the Magic Nucleus that is becoming rarer as time goes by.

Anyway, since he only has one Item Awakening Card he wanted to select an item that would always be by his side. After all, the next awakening card may only appear in the next five years or so considering his slow method of gathering experience points.

It took him quite a lot of time to replace the perfect item for this. After all, he didn't just want to awaken low-level sentience. If possible, he wanted to give his Awakened Item the highest possible sentience.

To do that, he has to select an item that is Legendary Rank or above and has reached 10 enhancements.

With that in consideration, he was left a few choices…

His top three choices were the Enlightenment Stone, the Tome of Skill, and the Astral Night Dagger.

He removed the River Dragon's Eyes from the options since that item looks quite scary especially if it gained sentience.

He also didn't think of selecting swords since all his swords right now possessed a skill that he really liked to use. He felt that once these swords gained sentience, he wouldn't be able to enjoy using them again.

In the end, he decided to use the Tome for his first Awakened Item.

Vincent previously obtained a blank Tome of Skills. The Tome of Skills, also knowns as Grimoires can be used to store specific abilities or Mana Arts inside them.

​ Furthermore, these tomes that were made by the Barbarian Warlocks can actually absorb any magic nucleus or cores from any Magic Beasts.

Of course, Vincent did not hesitate to use the best core in his possession and that is obviously the golem core he had taken from Professor Levent's dungeon.

That's right, this is the core of the golem that interrupted them when they awakened Luna.

This core is so valuable that it didn't come to his mind to use it as his Transcendence Crystal when he was grinding for experience.

[ Unintelligent Golem Core ]

[ Durability: 20/20

Pure Mana: 1800

Talent: Devour

Description: The Golem's source of life, magic, and intelligence.

Remarks: This item can not be enhanced. ]

[ Devour: Any being possessing this talent can get stronger after consuming another Core. ]

With this information, it was no wonder why Vincent decided to get the Tome to consume it.

After the Tome managed to obtain the Devour Skill of the golem core, its 50 blank pages became 50 devour skills ready to be used.

It didn't end there, once Vincent awakened it using the Awakening Card, it become crazier…

[ Awakened Tome of Gluttony ]

[ Quality: Mythic

Sentience: Mid-Level

Number of Enhancements: 10/10

Durability: 1240/1240

Description: An awakened tome with 50 pages that is storing the power of gluttony. This item has broken its limit and can now devour or store 1 target per page. The target can be an object or a living being.

Storage Space: 0/50 ]

[ Remarks: The stored object or being can only stay within the page for 100 days before they get devoured by the Tome. The user can also devour the selected target at any time by spending some mana. ]

[ Special Attributes: Intelligence, Growth, Flight, Mana Source ]

When Vincent first saw the quality of the item, he was confused but also excited at the same time.

Awakening the item didn't just provide sentience to the object but also improved its quality!

He previously thought that above the Legendary Rank was the Ancient Rank! However, it seems that he was wrong it was actually the Mythic Rank.

Vincent smiled after seeing the floating black tome in front of him.

"Glutton… Can you do something about the warships above us?" Vincent asked the sentient Tome.

This surprised Thyrus since he thought Vincent was speaking to him. However, after noticing that Vincent wasn't looking at him, he realized that he was staring at the floating book…

Thyrus didn't hear the book answer which is obviously normal but Vincent continued speaking to the book like an insane person.

"Go ahead then… The barrier protecting us is about to collapse…"

"…"

"Alright… I'll trust you. If you need more supply of mana, just devour some of those magicians…"

As soon as Vincent said this, Thyrus saw the black book open and its pages started turning as if they were stimulated by something.

Soon, everyone in the city was dumbstruck as the warships started getting closer to the city wall like they were attracted to something! Everyone thought that these massive flying vessels were about to crash but in the end, they seem to have disappeared just the way they appeared in the sky!

It was as if they entered another dimension that they couldn't see!

Thyrus, who had seen everyone from the beginning to its end couldn't be speechless by the scene! This is no longer within the realm of his understanding of Mana Art!

"Impossible…" Thyrus muttered as he stared at the floating black book that just closed itself after doing something incredible.

As far as he knows, there is definitely no Tier 4 or Tier 5 Mana Art capable of doing that!
