Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

The enemy woman ran away from Vicente, but he didn't bother to chase her. Confident in his Cursing Ritual, Vice stayed where he was as he felt the effects of the curse he had cast gradually fade away.

But he remained motionless for a moment, looking fearfully at his surroundings, worried about the Gates of Hell opening.

A minute's wait after the fight, he took a deep breath as he felt that his actions today had not been enough to provoke something more supernatural.

'It seems that the Gates of Hell will only actually open for me if I perform the Banishing Ritual... That makes sense. That kind of ritual is more connected to Hell.'

He gathered up the metals in his vicinity, finally leaving the metal altar he had created.

'Sigh! The Cursing Ritual is really strong. I didn't expect it to be so effective.' He turned his attention to the places where the enemies had died under his commands.

Luckily, two of the enemies had been torn apart outside the black areas that had taken them to a place inaccessible to Vicente at the moment. And precisely in those remaining body parts were the space storage items of those two.

'I didn't have time to worry about my enemies' resources, but luckily, the rings of the two strongest were left behind.' A smile shaped itself on Vicente's lips as he broke into those large space reservoirs now without owners.

"As expected. Grand Magus are really rich," he said under his breath, standing up and scanning his surroundings.

Now that he had the enemies' items and no one else was around to threaten him, it was time to leave. He continued towards the nearby town, which he had wanted to reach earlier so as not to have to use the Cursing Ritual.

Now, however, Vicente felt happier that he hadn't reached the town in time where there was a Stonewall outpost to help him.

The resources he had earned today would be enough to cover his faction's expenses for the rest of the time he would be in Light Cay!

That might not seem like much at the moment, but the {Golden Partners} currently had over 100 Magus, 15 of them at a high level.

Today's resources would pay the wages of more than a year's worth of these individuals and still give them opportunities for improvement before Vicente left to meet Nan.

That was something impressive, considering it came from just two individuals!

There were things there for Vicente too, so he made his post-battle way happier than someone who had been forced to the extreme just moments ago.

'The missions I've put into the Dark Hands system have definitely helped me a lot to avoid enemies and prepare against the opponents that have come at me. But it's time for me to make my last move on this island.' He ordered Prisiche to set up a new mission with a top prize.

'This is the most valuable item of those two mid-level Grand Magus. This will be the prize for the one who prevents enemies from reaching me for one year.'

Prisiche obeyed her master and set a new mission in the Dark Hands system. Meanwhile, he saw the city he would stop at to get transportation back to Ravengarde.

[Your mission is active.]

'Good. Now I just have to wait. I'll go back to Ravengarde and stop carrying out external missions until I meet Nan's group. That's only a few months away, then I'll focus on advancing to 9-Star within the sect.'

...

Six days after the battle against Grand Magus, Vicente was back in Ravengarde, now with an Inner Elder accompanying him as a bodyguard. frёewebnoѵēl.com

"Very well, you can get on with your business, Disciple Fuller. The Elders from headquarters will stand guard in your vicinity," said the Elder as he finally separated from him.

Vicente thanked the man for his help before moving on to his own faction.

His mission to Grand Magus to secure his peace had already been accepted by someone and now that he was in the sect's headquarters city, he was at ease.

He made his way through the bustling streets of Ravengarde at a leisurely pace until he reached a building that was entirely his own.

There he entered the main hall, meeting some of the group's Archmages, individuals who looked after the maintenance and management of the faction's smaller affairs.

He waved to the surrounding people, but didn't stop. Soon he was with some of the most important members of the group, except Larissa, who was away on a mission.

Vicente handed over the resources he wanted added to the faction's vault to one of his trusted men, and told them about his plans.

"I'm going to the cultivation tower to lock myself away. I don't intend to return until I advance to 9-Star. Pass this on to my master, Larissa, and the others," he said as he turned his back on his companions and waved one of his hands in farewell.

"Are you getting ready for your departure from Light Cay?" asked a woman.

"More or less."

"What about the Combat Center fights?" a man asked this time.

"Once a month, I go out to complete all my fights for the month. Anyway, I'm already in the top 20 of the Inner Disciple rank. In six months at most, I'll take over the first rank and become a Core Disciple."

His duties at the Diplomacy Center were well advanced and he could continue studying in seclusion, without worrying about going there. The sect had also already given him the guarantees he needed for the previous agreement to go through, so he was quite confident.

In just over a year, it would be time for him to meet up with Nan's group and get on with his plans to leave Light Cay!

'I'll be in touch soon with more in-depth information on how to change your situation, Annie, Nova, Layla, Lina, Nina, and Lauren!' He thought of the women waiting for him in Polaris Realm.

Vicente trusted they would deal with the vampires eventually and seek to advance to the 7th stage or wait for him.

He preferred them to wait for him so that they wouldn't go to islands too far from his, so he was finally moving ahead with his plans to fulfill his old promises!
