Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

On Vicente's second day in Ponddown, he was still being followed by the two Magus that Prisiche had noticed earlier. But he was pretending to be in the dark about it.

After his first training session with Alicia on the day of his arrival in the city, he cultivated in the tower where he had fought with her. At the end of the day, he used Helen to walk around the city center and get to know the area better.

There was nothing special going on in Ponddown, and one night was enough for him to learn the most important things about the area.

Ponddown was on the coast, so the place was heavily influenced by groups of sailors and traders who brought or even took resources from other parts of the island to the area. Because of this too, it wasn't hard to find members of the island's largest sects in the area. This was a point Vicente set his sights on, on the lookout for possible enemies looking for his head.

The second day in the city, he went back to train with Alicia, this time getting the chance to see her talent in action. After just one meeting, the woman achieved a remarkable improvement in her combat skills!

After this second meeting, Vicente better understood how much he could work together with Alicia and how long he would probably stay in the city. For the time being, they had agreed to train together for a week. But already on their second fight, he sensed their plans would change when they had between their third and fourth matches.

On their second night in the city, he took the opportunity to do some shopping for resources and ate at a popular restaurant in the area. The Manifold Family was covering his expenses, so he didn't have to worry about saving.

On his way back to the place he had been told by the family, he was just entering his room when Helen suddenly received a message.

Looking at Vicente with a smile on her face, Helen passed on the invitation she had just received from him. "Senior Fuller, Miss Alicia is inviting you to the family estate the following morning. Sir Edric Manifold has just arrived in the city and she has spoken to him about the senior. They wish to have breakfast with you and talk business."

Edric Manifold, Alicia's fiancé, was no ordinary member of this powerful house. As the third in line in the main line of succession, he could eventually become the patriarch, or even someone important to the patriarch.

Prisiche had helped him understand the Manifold Family better since he began his relationship with this group, so he was perfectly aware of Edric's position.

"All right. I'll get up early tomorrow." He didn't refuse, obviously curious to know what Alicia wanted.

There was no reason for him to meet Edric and her the next morning, unless she had something for him or the man wanted to meet his fiancée's trainer. One way or another, Vicente had no problem meeting up with them.

Soon after confirming that he was going to breakfast, he secluded himself in his hotel room, where Prisiche immediately left his face and took the form of a beautiful blonde woman.

"Let's try our onslaught tomorrow night." He said to her as he saw her artificial intelligence stop next to one window of that large luxurious room, looking out over the building.

Stopping next to a golden table, Vicente filled a glass with water and drank it as she spoke. "They're standing across the street. If they're enemies, they'll certainly try to move against you as soon as you give them the chance."

"That's great. Let's see who they are tomorrow."

"I agree with your plan, master. But I must warn you that there is a possibility that, if they are enemies, there are more enemies lurking out there, perhaps enemies much stronger than you. Given your reality, even Grand Magus would move against you if they knew 10% of what I know." She looked at him seriously.

"I know. Unfortunately, ignoring potential enemies doesn't help at all. I've seen and experienced enough to know that you can't leave any matter unresolved or they'll come back later to terrorize you." He lay down, somewhat tired.

Despite his level, his biological needs were much stronger in Anicane and he needed physical and mental rest, too.

"Hopefully, those two really are envoys from the sect and, if they're not, let's hope they're alone and greedy with the things we've bought. In any case, I'll be prepared to call Alicia's attention if anything goes wrong."

After his words, he left Prisiche to monitor the surroundings and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, hours had passed and a new day had begun when Prisiche had already prepared his clothes for him.

After a quick shower, Vicente put on a set of formal clothes, following the local dress code. When he left his room, he found Helen waiting for him and soon followed her to the Manifold Families' estate.

He hadn't yet been to the family's outpost in this city, but it did not surprise him to find it much larger than the one in Ravengarde. The family's headquarters were in a coastal city, similar to Ponddown, and one business they were deeply involved in was the transportation of resources across the island.

Naturally, their presence on the coast was not weak.

As he got out of his vehicle inside the family estate, he came across the staircase in front of one of the most imposing buildings in the area, where Alicia, a dozen people he didn't know and a brown-haired man, probably Edric, were waiting for him.

"Sir Edric." Vicente greeted the man after hearing Helen's confirmation.

"Disciple Vicente, it's a pleasure to meet you," said the man, who looked as human as he was, but whom Vicente wouldn't dare try to guess his race.

Not all Light Cay beings had body parts related to their race, even when they were non-human. Some only showed their origins when exposed to problematic situations.

"Please, Vicente, accompany us inside. We'll show you our residence." Alicia invited him with a smile on her face.

On the way inside the building, Edric spoke to Vicente. "I hear you're interested in Dark Hands. Lucky for you, Captain Thom's group has just returned from a trip with news of it. If you're interested, we can talk about it later."

Vicente looked at the card the man handed him, as he saw Alicia wink at him, indicating that she was helping him by raising a thumb at him.
