Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Months later, Vicente had built a faction that went far beyond him, Larissa and Rill.

Rill had been the first to join the group, but in Vicente's seventh month since his arrival in Anicane, three others had joined {Golden Partners}.

Daren, a feline woman of 9-Star 6th stage, Mabras, an apparently pure human man of 9-Star 6th stage and Alidove, a woman of the eagle clan of 8-Star Archmage cultivation, joined the group, forming the core of the faction.

After these important entries, each of them great talents given their ages and magical forms, Larissa went ahead with recruiting not-so-powerful members, supports for the strongest of the group. With three more people, her acquaintances, the group now had nine members and was getting close to the time when it could start acting more actively in the sect!

With the months that had passed, Larissa had finished her one-year period, where she was supposed to stay inside the Stonewall core, in the area protected from Anicane's extremely dense mana. Since then, alongside Daren, Alidove, Mabras and Rill, she had begun to act outside the core of the city, carrying out team missions.

In that time she had grown stronger and reached a magical cultivation of 6th stage, 5-Star, incredible progress as she was only a 5th stage magician when Vicente met her.

But she had already cultivated to a level similar to that of a 1-Star Magus on her plane, so she would eventually cultivate to that same level in Light Cay with relative ease.

Meanwhile, Vicente was entering into his last months of wait and, like Larissa, had improved a lot. He had recently made another breakthrough and reached the level of an 8-Star Archmage. With his improvements, the phenomenon of his body—which constantly absorbed mana—had diminished in intensity and he could already feel he was close to being able to cultivate and use resources again.

He wouldn't immediately make use of pills and other resources when he got rid of his current state, but having the possibility of using resources was always good.

His relationship with the Manifold Family developed well during this period, with him using their sponsors' equipment, representing the brand in his fights and even passing by their place in the area available to him in Ravengarde.

The Manifold Family's products and services had proven to be good and, as such, he had been fulfilling his agreement with Asahel beyond what he was obliged to.

Not by coincidence, the fruits of this relationship were developing for both sides!

...

At the Combat Center, Vicente had just finished a training session under Myles' supervision when he made his way off platform 19.

With his supervisor accompanying him, Vicente chatted with Myles about a few matters, until he stopped at the exit of the Center, from where he could see the screens showing the positions of the Outer Disciples Rank.

Coincidentally, his current position appeared on one of the screens that alternated from time to time between positions beyond the top 100.

He had accumulated 20,000 points over the last few months, surpassing the 25,000 point mark, leaving position 838 and reaching the rank of 422 in the Outer Disciples Rank. Having only fought 14 times since the match in which he got his sponsorship from the Manifold Family, he still had a long way to go until he reached the top of the rank.

"You've improved hastily over the last few months." Myles stopped when he saw Vicente's position appearing on that screen near to them. "You'll have about 15 more fights before you finish your one-year stint within the core sect, which could earn you up to 25,000 points. Keep it up and you'll soon be in the top 200."

Vicente smiled, agreeing that his prospects were good.

Unfortunately, the rank of Outer Disciples wasn't that impressive for him. After months of fighting and winning against individuals ranked in the top 200, Vicente was looking towards the rank of the Inner Disciples!

'In another five months I'll probably be a peak Archmage or a low-level Magus. By then, I'll be able to climb the ranks easily, without exposing myself.'

Over the last few months, over 50 million Light Cay magicians had learned his name. Many knew nothing about him, but there were those who had already shown themselves to him, known where he came from, and shown themselves to be hostile.

He was safe for now, but Vicente knew he had enemies who would try to kill him the first time he left Ravengarde.

But he was taking things one step at a time and didn't want to worry too much about future problems. He had been fulfilling missions in the sect, having already completed five missions in these months, as well as being close to completing his mandatory activities.

His relationship with the Manifold Family had paid off and, besides the fixed payments initially promised, he was already receiving his share of the profits from the new consumers of the family's services, people influenced by him.

Not least because he now had more than a million stone coins in his wallet, even though he had to spend 550,000 stone coins a month to maintain his faction with its current members.

Finally, saying goodbye to Myles, Vicente followed Prisiche, making his way to the Medicine Center.

On the way there, Prisiche verbalized his current status in his three obligatory activities.

"Master, your activity with the Forge Center is 77% complete. You can already be considered a 6th stage Blacksmith by Light Cay standards and are on your way to becoming a 7th stage one.

As far as the combat center is concerned, with your advancement to 8-Star recently, your situation is 85% complete. But advancing to 1-Star Magus isn't easy. You shouldn't complete this activity until the next 6 months.

Fortunately, you are quite advanced in your medical responsibility. With 95% of the mission complete, you can become a 6th stage Healer in the next few weeks!"

Stopping in front of the Medicine Center, Vicente liked what he heard. But thinking about how much he had improved and how he was about to become a full-fledged 6th stage Healer, he couldn't help thinking about his sisters.

'I wonder how Lauren and Nina are? Have their conditions reversed?'

But realizing that he would end up ruining his day if he thought too much about the war and how Polaris Realm might be, he pushed those thoughts aside and moved on.

'The damned vampires must be in seclusion, so they're fine for now. I'd better focus my mind on what I can affect!' He moved on to his activities in this sector of the sect.
