After Vincent was left in his room, he finally decided to use his Transcendence Card to transcend the mithril sword.

Although he thought of using the card for his Soul-Forged Ironbark Cane, he still decided to choose the sword because he felt a bit too bad with the cane that his grandfather had given him.

Every time he uses it to fight against someone, a large chunk of its durability would always be used and he would have to worry about it being destroyed completely.

That is something he didn't like to see since this cane is considered Raizen's memento.

[ Transcendence Card found. Would you like to use 1 Transcendence Card to Transcend this item? ]

A notification appeared in front of him as he grinned in delight. Well, as a blind person, seeing this notification allows him to hope for a brighter future.

From the darkness that he was shrouded in, the Item Awakening System is his light.

This is also the reason why he wanted to just always enhance and ascend many items within his room. After all, in this way, he would be able to constantly see the notifications as if he wasn't really blind..

It is a good pass time to escape from the reality that he has become incapable of seeing the world.

Vincent took a deep breath as he savors the sight of the notification before answering.

"Yes.."

[ Transcendence has been successful. ]

[ Aura-Forged Black Mithril Sword has received a new attribute and skill ]

"Now, let's see what improvement was made this time. Appraise."

[ Aura-Forged Unnamed Mithril Sword ]

"Magic Resistance and Fatal Mind, huh. It's very useful.. However, close combat battle is still too much for me.." Vincent shook his head after analyzing the skill.

Right now, the skill that is most useful to him was the Ensnare Skill of his cane. Both the Illusory Sword and the Fatal Mind can only be used in a short range after all.

At this moment, he is still incapable of combat no matter how good his Domain, Soul Sense, and Item Sense abilities are. There was no way it could easily replace his eyes during combat where a split second is extremely important.

He might be able to do so after a long time of training but not right now.

This is also the reason why he would always try to organize his things and walk around his courtyard to familiarize himself.

Vincent could only sigh at this.

After he kept his sword, he noticed that someone was actually observing him. It seems that he was too focused in his inspection of the sword.

"Tara? How long have you been there?" Vincent asked. Unlike Rem who would like to surprise Vincent by hiding her presence, Tara retained her aura when she was approaching Vincent.

"I just arrived. I saw that you're busy so I didn't make a noise... Anyway, I'm thinking of going to the dungeon.. The one we used to reach this territory. Do you want to join?"

Tara asked.

At this question, Vincent almost teared up with happiness. This Celestial Being was truly exceptional and she's still treating him like a normal person and not a blind man.

,m He couldn't help but appreciate this offer even if she wasn't serious about it. After all, it feels like he was still a valuable person when she does this.

Nevertheless, Vincent can only shake his head and refuse the offer. He wouldn't be helpful and will only be a burden to her. Instead, he asked something else..

"I can't join you right now.. I'm still familiarizing myself with the darkness. I probably need a bit more time. Anyway, if you ever stumble upon some treasures in the dungeon, can you bring me any unusual items? Something that can't be purchased would be good."

Vincent said as if Tara would be on vacation and he asks for a local souvenir.

"Unusual item? I'll keep it in mind.."

"Alright.. Take care. These are some potions that you might need. Take them." Vincent said as he placed a few potions on the table.

Tara wasn't shy about this as she took them without hesitation.

***historical

Three days after Vincent received his mithril sword, he was informed that a person from the Magic Organization that Yulia mentioned, came to visit.

Of course, he didn't go out to meet the man and allowed Rem to look around for him so she can give him some news. Tara hasn't returned yet from her dungeon exploration so she can't eavesdrop around the estate for him at the moment.

Vincent then remained in his room, as he continuously Enhances and Ascends the items that he has. He's at least planning to get the limit of all his important items.

He wanted all of them to reach +10 and Legendary Rank if it's possible.

[ Ascension Failure ]

[ Ascension Failure ]

[ Ascension Failure ]

Vincent tried to ascend the mithril sword that he has but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working. It has become a Pseudo-Legendary Sword but for some reason, he can't ascend it to a Legendary Item.

"Is it because of some item limitation? Is there a limit to what rank I could ascend?" Vincent muttered to himself.

After a while, he realized that his Ascension Skill is only level 2 at the moment..

'Perhaps increasing its level is important to break through from Pseudo-Legendary to Legendary?'

This is the only thing he could think of after failing numerous times. Right now, he can only be happy that failing to ascend or enhance an item doesn't equal to its destruction or enhancement cancelation.

In the end, Vincent can only continue until he exhausted his Spirit Stones, Beasts Cores, and his own Energy again.

'Hmm?'

As soon as his Pseudo-Celestial Energy went down to 100 units mark, Vincent felt Rem's Celestial Items getting closer to him using his Item Sense ability.

He then cleaned up his work table as he waited for the news that the Celestial would bring.
