Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

This is the first time that Yulia used this technique so those who were unaware of their plan were caught off guard. They thought that a strong opponent managed to pass through their defenses and caused chaos within the ranks of the Mage Battalion.

However, they soon realized that they were worrying for nothing…

Suddenly, the cries of the sea creatures resounded throughout the whole battlefield as Yulia had actually summoned a river of lava in the midst of the sea creatures!

It was like a volcano suddenly erupted and started burning all the sea creatures!

The sudden rise in the temperature also created huge steam making poor visibility for the knights.

They were unsure what had suddenly happened but they know that the pressure on the frontline has suddenly weakened.

"Kill the sea creatures in front! Do not let them climb the walls!"

One of the Grand Knights stationed at the wall cast his Resplendent Vigor and Imperious Will as it affected all the knights in his surroundings.

,m The other Grand Knights did the same to empower everyone around them.

"Kill!"

The magic knights felt their sudden rise in power so they didn't waste their time and immediately circulated their energy. They moved in unison as they slashed the Sea Creatures and use a bit of their knowledge about Fire Elements to burn the corpses in front of them.

They have learned that the blood of these creatures can cause headaches and dizziness so they have to immediately burn them using a special technique that wouldn't create fire but burn their target. It is a technique that only Magic Knights can use since it uses their life energy instead of mana.

Soon, the smell of burnt fish wafted throughout the whole battlefield.

The smell was so strong as Yulia's river of lava started getting larger and larger…

On the other side of the wall, Lola had seen everything. She saw how Yulia had become a catalyst wielding the power of twenty-one Archmages to cast a powerful Elemental Art that is obviously comparable to Tier 5 Mana Art."

"Just what was going on… I thought her strongest ability was her Darkness Mystic Eyes' Delude… This is definitely the Delude…"

Lola muttered as she couldn't understand what she just saw.

Yulia's Darkness Eye was something she had read in the books. It has seven tiers and each tier gets stronger exponentially.

The first tier was Control, followed by Nightmare, then Delude…

These three tiers have the same classification in which they can be used to subdue their human target. The one she's seeing right now is obviously not one of these three.

"Is this the fourth tier?" Lola can only guess as she looked at Yulia's completely black eyes like she was possessed by an evil spirit.

She doesn't have information about the fourth tier to the seventh tier and only the possessor of this technique can know them.

Even her subordinates can't answer this as they were very little knowledge about the gifts or more specifically, the Tier 4 Mana Arts.

"It's a good thing that Yulia has this technique being reserved all this time… However, is this not dangerous? The lava is getting larger and larger and it might affect the Knights. Should we tell them to move away?"

"We can also activate the barrier in time so there's nothing to worry about. Our barrier is more durable fighting against fire so it won't easily collapse."

Two of Lola's advisors spoke after a bit of contemplation. Regarding their barrier, they certainly have better ways of defending against fire attacks since they could easily gather enough cooling force by using seawater.

After being reminded of this, Lola heaved a sigh of relief since she was also quite worried about that. She then looked at the two and gave her command.

"This is good… We have to get rid of these creatures as many as we can… Send Reymar's team to take advantage of the situation… That lava they created can't be wasted!"

Lola then gave a series of orders as this is a great opportunity to remove a huge chunk of sea creatures.

Once they did this, meeting the Sea King might be a lot easier. After all, they needed to pose a huge threat so they can be entertained by the most powerful Sea Creature living in the ocean.

After a while, Lola looked at the battlefield that is starting to go in their favor. Normally, this battle should've lasted for over five or six hours.

However, thanks to Yulia's surprise, their fight this time might end in just an hour or so.

Lola took a deep breath as it seems that she would have to make the next move.

'I know that the Sea King doesn't really care about the few thousand of his species dying from the previous meteorite predicted by the Star Garden Peak. That thing also doesn't care about the creatures we're killing right now. I'm sure that it has something in mind why he's sending his soldiers to death… I need to meet that thing to end this meaningless war…' Lola thought as she really has no one else that could become a messenger to the Sea King.

Instead of ordering someone to do it, she decided to just do it herself.

In any case, she can still be accompanied by the Celestial Being with Celestial Armor since they can be used in water as well.

Other than that, she would have to rely on her Magic Tools and Formation Cores to move underwater.

***

In the central part of the Black Tower's territory, within the Alchemist Union's Headquarters.

A young girl carrying a hammer in her hand is watching the mobilization of soldiers from the window of her room. She looks very worried seeing this situation as she knows what this mobilization indicates.

"Are they coming to this place as well?" The young girl muttered with a heavy sigh.

A new organization has emerged and several Tower Masters have already joined this Organization.

It is called the Black Magic Organization and currently, a total of 16 Towers were confirmed to have joined this new organization…

Furthermore, this isn't just a normal coup d'etat or revolution by the magicians who hated the Tower Lord. It seems that this organization is worshipping a deity who can bestow powers on all living beings!
