Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

After leaving Dryhaven, Vicente and Nova once again had a peaceful time traveling without encountering any problems along the way.

It would take some time for them to get over the disastrous dinner with the Hogan family in that city, which had disappointed both young people in many ways.

Vicente's grandparents hadn't been insensitive to Kate's death, which was the only good thing about it. But they were two parasites who wanted to use their grandson to benefit their son.

Blake seemed like a spoiled brat who had been told yes all his life and didn't know the value of hard work. Meanwhile, this guy's girlfriend was a slut who would dump him as soon as she found someone better than him.

In short, this family was dirty, and getting involved with them would only lead to trouble.

Vicente realized this and didn't care about his grandparents. Having fulfilled his responsibility to deliver the news of his mother's death, he had no desire to have contact with them again.

Not only that, but the situation with the Hogan family of Dryhaven made him reconsider going to the dinner the Hogan patriarch had invited him to. He wanted to take Nina with him, but unlike him, his little sister wasn't mature enough to notice certain problems.

She could easily be manipulated if he exposed her to people like Hana and Axel!

But while Vicente understood why his mother had run away from the Hogan family, he saw that the Bain family was trustworthy and an interesting home for children to grow up in.

The Bain family reminded him a lot of his family before the fateful trip where Kate died. The family was large and very close, with a mother and father who knew when to give freedom or pressure their children.

This family saved Vicente's trip to Dryhaven and gave him some good memories of those few days.

...

Back in Saltstar City, Vicente and Nova didn't spend much time together before each went to their respective organizations.

Nova had to report to the army, while Vicente had some interests and responsibilities to attend to.

So they split up as soon as they entered the city, with him soon heading to his estate to find out how things were going with the family.

Arriving at the Fuller residence, Vicente found his family functioning within his expectations, as they had not gotten into any trouble in the days of his absence.

There was no significant new progress for him to focus his attention on changing, but there were also no new problems that required his attention. In short, Sarah, Rory, and Bart were busy expanding the family, while Nina did well with her routine between the academy and meetings with Newton.

But the family was stronger, with more men working and older members who had been strengthened by the resources from Snow Claw's inheritance.

With that, Vicente went to The Book Emporium, curious to see if the investigator he had hired earlier was ready to collect the promised data.

...

After taking a seat in the reading area of the bookstore, Vicente opened the book he had bought a few days ago, which was the code to attract the attention of The Ruby Devils' informant working there.

After five minutes in that place, the man Vicente had met days ago sat down in front of him.

"I have what you wanted. Do you have my coins?" The man asked, pretending to read his own book.

"Of course. Shall we make our exchange?" Vicente suggested.

The man then handed over the spatial ring he had received from Vicente earlier, which now contained various documents and analyses relating to the Bone Mountains. Meanwhile, Vicente gave the man 750 gold coins, completing their deal.

"Good luck with whatever it is." The information vendor said with a subtle smile on his face. "If you need anything else or are interested in investigating the other person, come see me. I'll give you the best price."

Vicente nodded to the man before discreetly leaving the bookstore and heading home to study the information he had just gathered.

With it in hand, he could begin to act against one of the forces connected to his mother's death!

He wanted to prepare himself for some time before he started to solve this matter, but having the information in hand was already a good start!

...

Later that day, Vicente finished reading what he had paid a thousand gold coins for.

Considering everything he could access, Vicente thought his coins had been well spent!

The information he had received was by no means old or superficial. It was very current, with news and facts about the sect from as recently as a few months ago. At the same time, it contained in-depth data, such as the number of members of this Chutha Dynasty faction, past and present problems, some secrets, and even the type of power of some of its most important and famous members.

With this information from Bone Mountains, Vicente even understands more about the other sect responsible for Kate's death, The Fallen Angels.

The Fallen Angels and Bone Mountains were two sects from neighboring and rival states. The Chutha Dynasty and the Kenyth Empire were ancient enemies who had fought three major wars against each other in the past 10,000 years.

These two sects followed the rivalries of their states and constantly had problems with each other inside and outside their respective territories.

With this information, Vicente understood that the battle that had caused his mother's death was one of the scourges of the disagreement between these two states.

Of course, this didn't make him feel any different about the whole affair. He felt exactly the same desire to go after Dax and Malik but also to go after their sects, their families, and perhaps their loved ones.

Vicente didn't usually act against innocent people of his own free will. But to avenge what his family had suffered, he was willing to get his hands dirty with the blood of those two men's innocent relatives!

No one had shown mercy to him, his sisters, his father, his mother, or the baby in Kate's womb. So, he would show no mercy when he turned his powers against his enemies.

He wanted them to suffer the worst before they died at his hands!

With the information he had gathered today, he had a starting point, and now all he had to do was prepare for a few more months.

He was in no hurry. Sooner or later, he would unleash his hatred on those responsible for the Fuller family's misfortune!
