Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 530 Moment of Departure

After saying goodbye to Nova the night before, Vicente met up with Jasmine and Layla on the morning of this new day.

”Vicente, take Layla with you.” Jasmine got right to the point when she saw the dark-haired young man in the restaurant where they usually met. ”Sheʼs not far from advancing to the final part of the 3rd stage and could be useful in helping you gather information about Chutha Dynasty.”

Vicente frowned when he heard that and looked at the grey-haired woman sitting next to Jasmine.

”You know Iʼll be facing a sect with Sovereigns in their ranks, right? Will you be able to keep up with me?” He asked Layla directly.

Layla said. ”I plan to help you gather information and escape from this state when the time comes. I wonʼt be joining you in your battles over there. So I should be fine, even considering the level of your enemies.”

Vicente knew how useful Laylaʼs super speed was and how beneficial it could be for him to have her as a companion on this journey. So he didnʼt refuse Jasmineʼs suggestion, even considering the complex relationship he had always had with the gray-haired woman.

”Alright, weʼll travel together. But what about you, Jasmine? Wonʼt this cause problems with your father?” He asked the beautiful pink-haired woman in front of him.

Jasmine shook her head negatively. ”Not at all. My father has sent Layla to help me. But I can send her wherever I want. Besides, he wonʼt know anything. And in the worst case, I can just say that I sent Layla somewhere to get an important resource for me.”

”All right then.” He looked at Layla. ”Be aware that Iʼm in charge, so obey me when I say something. I donʼt want any trouble on this trip.”

”Donʼt worry about me. I know how to handle you.” Layla smiled at Vicente, having had such experiences before.

”So are you ready? I want to leave tonight.” Vicente said, ignoring Laylaʼs bold comment.

”Tonight? Iʼm ready now. Why donʼt we leave soon?” Layla asked.

”I have a meeting with my familyʼs leaders outside of the city tonight. After the meeting, Iʼll leave Saltstar City.”

Jasmine looked at Layla and said. ”Get ready to accompany him on this journey tonight. Donʼt worry about me, Iʼll be fine. I donʼt intend to leave the city while youʼre gone. And at my current level, few people in the province can stand in my way.”

Layla knew that. ”Very well. Iʼll join you tonight when you go to meet your people.”

”Perfect. Then Iʼll see you later.” Vicente said as he got up, intending to take care of some local business before this trip.

He had already said goodbye to Nova, but he wanted to talk to his master and go to the local blacksmith association to settle some matters he had been involved in over the past few months.

Vicente had invested a great deal in his position as a blacksmith. He had even reached a position of prominence in the cityʼs blacksmith association unit. He was currently second only to the elders on the council, and as such, he was deeply involved in many of the affairs of the strongest local blacksmiths.

Since he was planning to go to the Chutha Dynasty, he wanted to take the opportunity to get materials, spells, resources, and other useful things to help him become a 4th stage blacksmith.

Since he intended to stay in Saltstar City until Nina finished the Royal Academy, he would need these things after he became a sovereign.

Having such things would be beneficial not only for him but also for the unity of the association in this city, where he could contribute to local development.

Therefore, his trip to the Chutha Dynasty would be financed by the local association, which would give him a strong alibi for his trip to that state, where he was supposed to go to learn and enjoy opportunities...

So, shortly after saying goodbye to Jasmine and Layla, he found himself in front of the association building.

...

Later that day, Vicente already had the funds that the elders of the local council of the Blacksmithsʼ Association had given him for his trip when he picked up Nina at the Newton residence.

He took her to a famous local restaurant, taking advantage of the fact that he would be away from his sister for months to teach her a few more things while he took her out.

Nina had matured a lot in the months since she had left Millfall. As a result, she did not see her brotherʼs absences as badly as before. She really preferred that he stayed close by, but she understood that he had to go out to solve problems for the good of the family.

So she tried to enjoy this time with her brother but was already looking forward to his return.

After returning home with Nina, Vicente would say goodbye to Eve and Rory, who would remain at the Fuller estate to take care of his duties in his absence.

”Have a good trip, Vice. Iʼm sorry I canʼt help you more directly with your revenge. But know that Iʼll be ready one day and help you with my best efforts to save Lauren.” Rory said as he hugged Vicente at the door of the Fuller mansion.

”Youʼve already done a lot for me, donʼt worry.” Vicente smiled at his redheaded friend. ”Take care of the family for me. Take care of Nina too. That girl is growing up and gradually figuring out how to fool Eve.”

Eve heard that and laughed bitterly, already aware of the things that had happened lately.

Rory smiled at that. ”Iʼll do my best.”

”Well, thatʼs all. Now itʼs my time to go.” Vicente said as he looked at the sidewalk in front of his house, where a grey-haired woman was already waiting for him. ”Iʼm going to meet up with Sarah and the rest of the staff and then continue my journey. See you later, my friends.”

With these words, he said goodbye to Eve and Rory and left with Layla for one of the cityʼs exits.

After walking for a while, the two began to walk faster as they made their way to Vicenteʼs meeting place with his staff.

A few minutes after leaving Saltstar City, they arrived at a wooded area where Sarah, Bart, and three other Mages were waiting for him.

After meeting these people, Vicente would soon give his orders to the group of Mid-level and High-level Mages.

Rory was supposed to work with them. But since he would be taking over Vicenteʼs duties for the time being, he wasnʼt there and had already reported to his boss and received orders.

Vicente did the same with these five people as he had done with Rory until he saw some of them leave, with only Sarah staying behind to talk to him.
