Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 67 Necessary Change?

As Vicente smiled, Eve and Rory felt the mana in their surroundings change, and the three corpses covered by metal surfaces reappeared, showing their pierced heads.

The Red Pentagram in front of Vicente moved as his right hand manipulated it, and the metals changed shape, attacking those bodies.

Eve and Rory heard the sound of flesh being pierced and watched for a moment what Vicente intended.

But soon, the young redhead realized what his friendʼs plan was.

”Youʼre not...”

”Yes, I will manipulate their bodies in the light of day,” Vicente said while making them stand in front of them as if they were still alive.

Vicente finished placing metals under the bones of these men and used one of them to raise one of his hands and wave it toward them.

”Can you do that?”

Vicente smiled at Rory. ”This is nothing. Iʼm just manipulating the metal I put into their bodies. Itʼs not so different from manipulating metal in the air. The difference is just that I have to be a little careful not to destroy their bodies.”

Eve was open-mouthed watching this, still amazed at the abilities Vicente had awakened.

”But what about the punctures in their heads?”

Rory answered in Vicenteʼs place this time. ”Thatʼs easy. We just put hats on their heads, and no one will see.”

”The perforations in their bodies that I made to put my metals in them are under their clothes too, so no one will notice them. Anyway, weʼll make them leave the village after leaving our house. Weʼll dispose of their bodies in the Crow Wood.” Vicente added.

”But...”

”Eve, donʼt worry. While we were on our way here, we were attacked by a group of goblins. We can use that to confuse Baron Irwinʼs family about the disappearance of one of his sons.” Rory commented, seeing that she was worried.

”Goblins? Near the village?”

”We were surprised too,” Vicente replied. ”But being only the third son, the chances of deep investigations happening are low.

Nobles have a terrible habit of killing their family members and people with whom they have even minor disagreements... There will be many suspects before we are implicated.”

With that said, they didnʼt take long to organize their exit from this place, secretly entering the carriage of the young Irwin family memberʼs group before Vice manipulated them to enter it by themselves.

If someone were paying attention and using their skills to look in their direction, it would be possible for someone to notice that something wrong was going on there. After all, Vicente was using his ability, and the mana in the surroundings was a bit agitated.

But in a village where people were not so suspicious of each other, where there were also no strong or brave people to get involved in disconnected problems with them, no one noticed the action thought up by Vicente and Rory.

In a few minutes, their group left the village and entered the Crow Wood, where they would eventually dispose of those bodies after looting their items.

To be sure, Vicente didnʼt take any magical artifacts from that young blond man, getting only coins and things that couldnʼt be tracked.

He naturally retrieved his metals and weapons from those peopleʼs belongings, increasing the amount of metal in his armor.

...

After 2 hours, Vicente, Rory, and Eve returned to the village, this time on foot, since they had left behind the carriage and horses of that group.

They made their way around the sides of the village and did their best to reach the main streets without being noticed by anyone.

Cautiously following part of their route, the three soon arrived in front of the Academy of Stars building, where several children could be seen playing.

It was almost time for the students to leave, so they didnʼt have to wait long, and soon a young girl with black hair, dressed all in black, alongside several men, appeared coming towards them.

Seeing her brother, Nina lost her usual calm manner and ran up to him with a smile on her face, overjoyed to see Vicente back.

”Big brother!” This young girl of about 8 jumped into his arms, looking at her big brotherʼs forehead and feeling very proud.

As much as it was yellow, his Magic Gem was very unusual!

”Big brother, congratulations on awakening your powers!” She said as she felt her brotherʼs bear hug.

”Hmm, Nina, Iʼm here to take you to Millfall. I know youʼd still have a week of classes at the Academy of Stars, but I donʼt think it would make much difference for you to stay another week. What do you think?” He made several signs as he spoke to her.

Nina immediately agreed with him, eager to go to Millfall, a city much bigger than the village, with much more possibilities for her.

Nina liked the village, but she preferred bigger cities, places with a lot of movement on the streets and where she wouldnʼt have to wait for days or venture on the roads to get certain things.

On the other hand, due to her deafness, she didnʼt have many friendships at the Academy of Stars and would miss almost none of her classmates.

Living in Millfall as soon as possible would also be a fresh start for her!

With his sisterʼs answer, Vice took her in his arms and headed back to his family home along with his guards, Rory and Eve, without touching the subject of those people from earlier.

They would meet some people on the way, but the group would quickly arrive at that residence where other men from Viceʼs warehouse were already to report for the start of the trip.

While holding Nina in his arms, Vicente looked at those men; they were all well-armed with pistols and rifles. ”Guys, start putting our luggage and boxes in the wagons.

I have something to take care of before our departure, but it wonʼt take long. Do as settled, and Iʼll join you later.”

Rory stepped forward and said. ”In the meantime, I will take care of you and inform you of some problems...”

Vicente left with his sister, leaving Rory to explain what had happened to one of the groups of merchants under their protection.

In the meantime, he went to the house of one of his allied merchants in this village, interested in talking about it.

Incidents happen, but they should take extra care with people or groups like young Irwinʼs when traveling.

Vicente had already counted on the possibility of his weapons falling into the hands of strangers in the future, and that did not worry him so much because his weapons needed ammunition.

Without that ammunition, something only he knew how to do since it didnʼt involve magic, one wouldnʼt be able to use any of it.

On the other hand, if one puts in more power than the weapon can handle, it could be damaged by the shot.

In short, such weapons falling into the hands of those who should not was not a problem.

The problem was someone getting close to him because of those guns!

So things needed to change in the groupʼs operation!
