Taking the Mafia to the Magic World - Chapter 918: Back Home
Two weeks later…
Demien Bloodthorne was flying over the headquarters of an ancient organization of Dark Path magians, one of the oldest forces on the continent until their extinction ten days ago.
Until ten days ago, the Doomarrows, an ancient ally of the vampires with a combined history of at least 6,000 years, had shown its last sign of ‘life’ in its last contact with the coalition of monsters and vampires.
Dark Path magicians worked hand in hand with the monsters and vampires to find Vicente Fuller’s current location. However, they had been unsuccessful for the past two and a half months.
Since their last contact, the Doomarrows had not stopped giving feedback to the coalition, so Demien and three elders had taken the trouble to travel to the sect’s old headquarters.
But as soon as they arrived there and saw the destruction of the old organization’s headquarters, the three 6th stage vampires understood what had happened.
“Seems like our target passed through this area,” one of them sighed, his eyes scanning the remnants of what was once a magnificent mountain. Now, all that remained was a massive crater, strewn with evidence of a fierce battle—bloodstains, scattered signs of combat, and a handful of decaying corpses.
“Is he looking for our allies?” Demien frowned, trying to understand the mind of his enemy. “What exactly is his goal?”
“Vicente Fuller is a magician of the Dark Path. Let’s not forget that. For him, this could be an act of punishment for the traitors of his race.”
“Or it could be something more… to disrupt us, undermine our forces, and get to us. Let’s not forget how valuable our blood is to him,” the other vampire Archmage argued as he looked at his colleague.
“It would be foolish of him to underestimate us. Despite his strength, he stands no chance against our alliance.”
“No, let’s not underestimate him,” Demien interrupted the argument between his two companions. “Vicente Fuller may be seeking revenge, but there’s a possibility that he’s genuinely attempting to undermine our strength and weaken us. It’s best if we prepare for the worst-case scenario.”
“In that case, what should we do?” The one who was most concerned about Vicente’s freedom asked.
“We…” As Demien was about to speak, a giant bat suddenly appeared in the sky and a moment later took the form of a woman with pale skin and black hair.
“Elders, and supreme leader, I bring urgent news,” the newly arrived vampire said, drawing grimaces from the three men watching the ruins left by Vicente.
“What happened?”
She explained without sympathy. “Strangers of the Spear, as well as the sect of Dark Path magicians below us, have also fallen. We’ve just been contacted by a group of observers searching for Vicente Fuller. They discovered ruins like this among us, at the headquarters of our allies!”
Demien and the two elders frowned and remained silent for a moment, pondering Vicente’s actions against them.
With the fall of the Strangers of the Spear and the ancient sect below them, the last of their human allies had been wiped out!
It wasn’t exactly a fatal blow to their coalition, as the Dark Path magicians made up less than 1% of their numbers. Still, these magicians were helpful, had good powers, and most importantly, couldn’t deceive them.
Losing them was a bigger blow than it seemed on the surface!
“Vicente Fuller!” Demien gritted his teeth, shaking with rage at the thought of his damned enemy.
“Did he leave any trace?” one elder asked, worried.
“No. Based on the change in metals found in the rocks of this area, we can confirm he was the one who took action here. However, for us, it appears he mysteriously appeared here, carried out his actions, and then vanished in the same manner he arrived. His destination and the exact timing of the incident remain unknown to us.”
The two elders with Beginner Archmage cultivation looked at each other, imagining the worst.
“He may have already absorbed his eleventh pentagram. He advanced one level weeks ago and has been missing ever since. It’s more than enough for him to have strengthened by now.” Demien said, his tone deep and not as optimistic as it used to be.
He wasn’t afraid of Vicente, but the longer the human could roam the continent, the less chance they had of successfully hunting him down.
If it came to where Vicente couldn’t be stopped, then it would only be a matter of time before the boy defeated them!
“We have to move. Let’s go to the south. If he doesn’t show himself, we’ll force him to move to save his own domains.” Demien decided, having received the news about Vicente’s domains days ago, he already knew there were people important to his enemy in the south.
He still needed more detailed information about the enemy, but the names of Vicente’s loved ones should be discovered by his men in the next few days or weeks!
The newly arrived woman left as soon as she heard her leader’s decision, and the two elders stayed with Demien for a few more moments before they left as well.
It was time for them to bring the terror of the 6th stage vampires to the south of Polaris Realm!
…
As Demien and his men began their journey to the south of Polaris Realm, Vicente arrived in his region after over two years after he left home.
Having dealt with the two remaining sects of treacherous Dark Path magicians on the continent, he embarked on his journey back south. His intention was to spend his last days in Polaris Realm, where he could be reunited with his family.
Something told him he would soon face Demien Bloodthorne and then reach his time limit in Polaris Realm.
Now Vicente was no longer afraid of dying to Demien, but of not being able to live with his family. So he returned to his region, taking only a week to leave the far north and reach the Chutha Dynasty.
Even with his new ability, he wasn’t powerful enough to open a wormhole between the far north and the far south of the continent. His new ability was incredible, but it required a lot of mana from its user.
Unless Vicente was an Advanced Archmage, he wouldn’t be able to make this journey in one trip.
Even so, the journey that would have taken him six months or more if he had flown took him only a few days.
Upon his arrival in the capital of the Chutha Dynasty, he was well aware that Lauren was there, thanks to the rumors he had heard a few days earlier in the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn.
Curious to see his sister, he made a quick stop before heading to Metal City!
