Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

For the next two weeks, Vicente would stay in Metal City without getting involved in the recovery of the province or the kingdom. He would focus all his time on producing artifacts for his new partners.",

Seven groups had sought his alliance, but none of them had brought him large amounts of materials, as humans, even high-ranking ones, had relatively small limits on the amount of minerals they could carry.

These two weeks would be enough for him to use all the 4th and 5th grade materials brought by these groups, producing a total of 1,000 weapons, 2 million bullets, and 200 pieces of armor.

Of this amount, 17% stayed in Metal City for the use of the local forces, while the rest was divided according to what each group brought.

The group that took the most artifacts with them when they left the city was Julian's group from the Kenyth Empire, as they had brought the most materials. However, they only took 100 4th grade weapons, 22 4th stage armors, and 3 5th stage armors.

They had all brought small amounts of materials because they didn't know if they could trust Vicente. Before they met Vicente, there was a danger this young man would rob them if they entered his territory!

Now they all knew that wouldn't happen, and they were already planning to send additional groups in the future with more of their materials to get better numbers of artifacts.

But for now, everyone was satisfied, as the last party had left Metal City the day before with 50 firearms and 14 pieces of armor, promising to return in a few months with triple what they had brought on this trip.

As for the Fuller family, they got the most out of the deal, not having to do anything crazy or take any risks to get 170 new firearms and 34 new pieces of armor!

...

After finishing the artifacts for his new allies the day before, Vicente took a day off with Nova.

For the past two weeks, not only had he been working hard to produce the artifacts for his new allies, but his entire group had been working in the city and province.

Nova and Eve had organized the groups that were already traveling to abandoned towns in the province. One group was even supposed to be in Saltstar City, gathering resources and materials and setting up lookouts.

Rory, Casey, and Bart were to expand the security perimeters of Martell Village and Millfall, with the goal of merging their fences in the coming months.

The family groups in the other remaining cities in the province were also making efforts to improve the situation in their territories and to hunt down monsters that came close to their border fences.

As the family's plans were progressing well, the Bain and Fuller families would celebrate their planned union in the coming months today, on a day of rest for the main local representatives.

...

At the Fuller family mansion, Vicente and Nova welcomed many guests into their home this evening, nobles, wealthy men, and great local warriors there to share in this special moment.

After years of courtship, Vicente and Nova publicly announced their wedding, scheduled for 8 months from now!

Nova's family was thrilled. Her mother and father smiled as they thanked the local leaders for the gifts for their daughter and Vicente.

Nina was also delighted. She had her wedding to Killian just a few months away and was very fond of Nova.

Vicente and Nova's wedding would not only be an auspicious moment she would soon experience, but one that would make her happy for Nova, who deserved it very much, and for Vicente, who loved Nova so much.

Only Lauren wasn't there to celebrate with her siblings, as she was cultivating in the estate's cultivation room.

She had returned to town three days ago, having left earlier to search for her fifth pentagram. After finding a 5th stage creature with a good green pentagram compatible with her near the border of the kingdom with the Chutha Dynasty, she returned after getting what she wanted.

Since Vicente had made a big monster sacrifice in Metal City a few days ago, the place was so rich in mana that even Paragons like her could try to improve their strength there.

She, Onyx, and Torne were doing just that while the rest of the family enjoyed Vicente and Nova's engagement ceremony.

Amidst the many people in the reception area of the mansion, servers came and went with drinks and snacks, while special magicians played music and sang to the delight of the guests.

Important conversations took place around the estate, while Vicente danced with Nova, holding her tightly in his arms with a smile on his face.

Maybe he wouldn't have much time with her. But as long as he was there, he would take the opportunity to live the best life he could with her!

"Nova, we're going to have a baby." He said as he looked into his partner's perfect blue eyes.

"Are you sure? I would love to have a child with you, but I don't want to be a burden to you." She said, feeling her heart beat faster and her cheeks grow hotter.

"Children are not burdens. One day, none of us will be here, even if we defeat the vampires. All living things must die. But that doesn't mean we have to disappear. Let's plant our fruits for the next generations." He told her as he smiled, showing his teeth and dimples.

"Our fruits, huh?" She smiled as she imagined what it would be like to experience motherhood.

She was truly afraid, even though she loved family and the idea of having children. Would it be good to bring a child into this world amid a disaster?

But if it was dangerous to bring such a fragile and defenseless creature into the world, could she delay her decision and risk never conceiving Vicente's children?

She wrapped her fingers around his body and nodded affirmatively.

"All right, I want to try." She told him, causing him to stop dancing and kiss her.

Everyone saw their moment as men and women stood around applauding the passionate kiss of the young leaders.
