Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

After leaving the headquarters of the Fallen Angels, Vicente, Layla, and Casey followed under Vice's invisibility until they left Spiritbell.

As they left the most dangerous part of their escape, they began to move faster, with Layla using her powers to run away while Vicente flew away, taking Casey with him.

They would continue to move east for about an hour, moving away from Spiritbell as fast as they could.

After that time, they would begin to slow down a bit until they stopped near the banks of a river in the middle of a wooded area of this sparsely forested state.

"Well, time to say goodbye." Vicente smiled at Layla and Casey, feeling that it was finally time for them to return to the Seidel Kingdom to help his family and report on what had happened so far.

Casey and Layla looked at Vicente, both a little reluctant to part with him but aware that it was necessary to get the vampire as far away from Saltstar City as possible.

Casey took a deep breath and squeezed one of Vicente's hands, feeling that they would both have less weight on their shoulders from now on.

They had both taken revenge on their enemies and solved past problems!

"Good luck on your journey back to the kingdom, Vice. When you return, let's have a drink and talk about your experiences." Casey said sincerely, smiling at his friend.

Vicente nodded to the man with the long black hair and assured him this would happen. "Of course."

Layla hugged him and gave Vicente a tongue kiss, not caring that Casey was there.

After a moment, she told him. "Be careful. I don't know what you're planning but remember you have a sister to take care of in Saltstar City. Don't think you can risk it now because you have nothing to lose."

"Don't worry. I still have too many goals to risk myself for no reason." He smiled at her concern.

"Will you hunt your fourth pentagram now?" She asked curiously.

"No. It will be difficult for me to get a good pentagram in my current situation. I'll wait for more family members to become stronger, and when I become a Sky Sovereign, I'll see about that."

"Won't that be risky?" Casey asked.

"No. I should be fine until then. My magical base is pretty strong." Vicente said, reassuring them both.

"Then I'll try to help you with your future hunting," Casey said before Layla said something similar.

Vicente didn't doubt that they could help him because even if their talents weren't as high as his, they could advance quickly with good resources. Of course, this would be more difficult from now on due to the amount of resources they could find in the Seidel Kingdom and the fact that they were very close to the level that people with their talents normally reached.

Talent didn't limit how far you could go. Still, after the 4th stage, it would become difficult for those two to keep improving by cultivating hard or using resources.

But the main difference in terms of talents was how well you could use their skills to display characteristics outside of the curve.

For example, Vicente could fight against Sky Sovereigns when he was a High-level Mage. On the other hand, Layla could, at most, run away from an Earth Sovereign at this level, but only because her skill was focused on speed. If she had Casey's skill, for example, she would hardly be able to do that at the same level.

Even if they didn't have talents as high as his, Vicente felt they could help him if they could raise their levels a little more with his support.

Even if they couldn't fight much above their level, they could undoubtedly do support work that few others could do!

Vicente gave them some spatial rings with resources for them to consume and others for them to give to Rory before they finally parted ways.

Leaving Vicente, the two of them would walk at a more moderate speed since Casey couldn't move at the speed Vicente flew or Layla ran.

As they moved, he suddenly asked something that had caused him some doubt moments before but which he hadn't brought up in light of their parting.

"Hey, Layla, is it just me, or was Vicente's Magic Gem green?" He asked.

"Huh?" She looked at him as she thought about Vicente's face, slowly realizing this fact that she had ignored.

"That's right. His gem was green! But it should be yellow!" She muttered as she thought of that face she had seen many times when they were intimate...

How could she have missed something so important?

"I wonder what happened?" He asked her.

"I have no idea. Maybe it's one of his abilities?" She tried to think. "He can manipulate the light around him to make himself invisible, so maybe that's it."

"So, was he showing us false information, or did he finally show us his real talent?" Casey asked.

"I don't know. But it's very likely that his talent is not yellow. Maybe his real talent is green."

The two continued to discuss this and soon disappeared into the forest.

...

As he watched Layla and Casey disappear over the horizon, Vicente looked at the area he was in, where a small river flowed toward a waterfall not far away.

The medium-sized trees filled with colorful leaves swayed in the relatively light breeze that was blowing through. At the same time, the sky was completely blue in the middle of the afternoon.

'What now?' He asked Torne.

'Now we can go to the place I told you about, master. But first, I must inform you that your powers must have mutated somehow earlier. Your first Magic Gem is now emitting a dark green color.' Torne said, drawing his master's attention to this fact.

'Huh? Really?' Vicente walked over to one of the riverbanks and looked at his reflection.

'I can't explain what happened. But your second gem must have affected the first one to change and become stronger. Your powers should be a bit stronger now.' Torne explained before returning to the matter he had to solve with Vicente.

'But do you want to go directly to the location of my old organization? We'll reach that place in about 15 days if we move without stopping.'

'Hmm, please lead the way.' Vicente agreed.

With that order, Torne soon led Vicente to the first Cataclysm Order outpost they would enter.

Vicente didn't expect much, nor did he have many plans for the Cataclysm Order, but with this experience, his plans for the future would change!
