Taking the Mafia to the Magic World



Two days later...

It was an afternoon in Ironcrest, and the sky was without a single cloud over the city, making it a great day to go to the beach and relax.

The local beaches were more beautiful this afternoon, with emerald green waters and a calm sea, just right for ordinary people to go into the water without danger.

But most of the local people were going about their normal routines without paying any attention to this beautiful day.

Amidst the bustle of carriages, wagons, and people in the city center, Layla was in a local cafe, sipping a cold drink while sitting on a beautiful balcony.

She had a large sheet of newspaper in front of her and seemed to be calmly reading the kingdom's monthly magazine.

In the Seidel Kingdom, news agencies reported on the most important events in a particular state or region. It wasn't like Earth, where the average person could learn about small things that happened even on the other side of the world. But it was possible to keep abreast of relevant information within a given area on that continent.

In the case of Scott Province, there was a monthly magazine that contained news from the province and the kingdom as a whole, usually about more relevant things such as the deaths of nobles or members of royalty, changes in laws, the army, or the Martial Court.

It wasn't something that would bring life-changing information to ordinary people. Still, it could keep nobles and businessmen minimally up to date.

But Layla wasn't reading the newspaper in front of her right now because she was paying attention to something else.

While she seemed to be reading the paper, her eyes were drawn to a beautiful, grand building in the center of Ironcrest, where several members of the organization she belonged to were coming and going.

Looking at the local Awakening Temple from under her mask, Layla had a slightly curious expression, sensing that something wasn't right.

'Have the investigators sent here found anything?' She wondered.

Now, he was ready to act and finally free Jasmine from the clutches of the greatest threat to the Mazzanti family's operation in recent memory!

He watched the post where 50 people were standing around, including 35 Acolytes between levels 3 and 5, 12 Low-level Mages, 2 Mid-level Mages, and 1 High-level Mage.

But as he watched some men changing shifts, he suddenly felt his communicator with Layla vibrate.

"Hi..." He said as he answered the call, thinking she was calling to say she was ready.

"We have a situation with our targets." Layla got right to the point after taking a risk to find out why the local temple staff had moved suspiciously earlier.

She continued when she heard Vicente's silence. "The personnel sent by my organization to investigate the deaths of the three Mages from the local temple seem to have uncovered clues about their deaths. It seems that The Faceless Ones were involved, along with soldiers from the kingdom."

"Oh?" Vicente's eyes opened wider as a gleam appeared in them.

"I don't know exactly what's going on. But it looks like the investigators who are in Ironcrest are trying to make a move against The Faceless Ones. Given the strength of this group, it won't necessarily be an all-out assault. But there will be some kind of pressure or even assassination attempts.

Let's keep an eye on the movements of the local investigators. Anything they do could create better opportunities for us to act."

Vicente couldn't disagree with Layla's thoughts and immediately dampened his mood by turning his attention to the surroundings of the area he was in, looking for other observers like himself.

While doing so, he spotted some Acolytes acting a bit suspiciously about 100 meters away from the enemy post.

'It looks like there really are people watching this place...' He thought to himself.

Torne confirmed it. 'Yes, those three Acolytes are watching the same place as the master. Maybe you should wait another day or two. If the members of this religion at least try to intimidate this group, it will be enough of a distraction to greatly increase your chances of success.

He said to Layla. "Okay. Let's wait a little longer before we act. In the meantime, try to find out more about the interests of this group of investigators. As much as they might subconsciously help us, we have to be careful. Jasmine definitely can't be seen by them. Otherwise, we'll have problems."

"I will do my best. Wait for my return." She said before the call ended.

The plans for tonight changed for both of them!
