Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 215 Investigation

Chapter 215 Investigation?

While Shelby was dealing with her own problems, something was happening at the Seidel Kingdom's royal army headquarters in Millfall...

A group of soldiers lined up in several rows in the courtyard of this barracks, while a group of high-ranking soldiers who had just arrived at this post were meeting there.

"Twelfth Steel Troop Commander, Peter Asper, from the capital, present!"

"Fourth Red Troop Commander, Arthur Hogan, from Saltstar City, present!"

"Second Bone Troop Commander, Alex Regan, of Dryhaven, present!"

Three men of the same rank as the Commander of the Millfall outpost stood in front of Christopher Hogan while the man held a formal position to greet the reinforcements he had recently requested.

Looking at his older brother, who had come from the capital, Christopher thanked everyone there. "Thank you for responding to my call. I hope we can resolve the situation in The Rocky Gorge in the next few weeks."

"Don't worry, Chris, we'll take care of this problem." The strongest one there, Peter, said as he looked at his younger brother and patted one of the shoulders of the guy he hadn't seen in years.

"Yes, my troops will arrive in a few days, and then we'll have twice as many men as you have here," Alex commented.

Arthur agreed. "Hopefully, we'll have it settled by the end of the month, when we'll be eating basilisk meat!"

The men smiled as each relevant soldier at this Millfall outpost took their positions, watching the gathering of Mages in silence.

Nova stood among the soldiers and looked at the Commanders with fervor in her eyes, imagining that in a few months, she would reach that rank and command her own troop.

In the Seidel Kingdom, not every army Commander led the rank of a city, as was the case in Millfall.

Millfall was a small city with a population of around 60,000, and it only needed one soldier of the rank of Commander in its post. Cities like Saltstar City had more than half a dozen soldiers of the rank of Commander.

But each Commander led their own troop and had certain freedoms that a lower-ranked soldier didn't have.

Thinking about the day when she would become a Mage and take the test to become a Commander, this blue-haired woman couldn't help but feel anxious.

'If I do well in this hunt, I could get a recommendation and the merit points needed for the Commander's Test!' She thought to herself.

...

In another part of Millfall, Nina and Eve went to the academy where this young girl studied.

Nina had asked Eve daily about Vice and what he and Rory were doing. But she knew that her brother wouldn't be back for a while as he was on an important business trip.

However, there wasn't a day that went by that she didn't think about what he might be doing, imagining the adventures of being an adult and being able to go on trips.

As much as she had traumatic travel experiences, Nina had no problem traveling because she had become deaf and lost her mother. Despite everything, she was a happy child who had overcome these losses.

There were times when she felt sad when she remembered everything she had been through. Still, with her new local friends, Eve, Rory, Vice, and the men who worked for her family, Nova and Shelby, she was able to cope well.

That's why when one saw her walking with difficulty to the academy, one would see her with a happy look on her face and would hardly imagine what she had been through.

Seeing this from a distance, one of the men following her couldn't help but be curious.

'What's wrong with her?' This person thought as he watched Eve say goodbye to Nina at the door of one of the local academies.

'It doesn't matter. I'll find out soon enough. We'll have plenty of time to talk!' He smiled from the shadows he used to move in as he entered the academy and followed Nina.

"Time to come with me, Miss Fuller!"

Arriving at a place where there were few people, he quickly grabbed Nina from behind and covered her mouth before taking her in his arms and walking away!

...

Meanwhile, a few dozen kilometers north of Millfall, a group of three people dressed in the Awakening Temple's uniform were standing in a forest next to a campfire.

Among these people, a man looked around while a grey-haired woman stirred the fire and prepared something for them to eat.

At the same time, a woman with pink hair sat in a lotus position over a square stone while an orange pentagram circled her body.

The green Magic Gem on her forehead glowed as she searched for her target.

The level 5 male, the same as his two companions, glanced at the pink-haired woman and clenched his fists. 'If Jasmine finds the Irwin family thieves, we can change our lives.' He thought to himself as he looked at her with satisfaction. 'With her by my side and these coins, I'll be able to get everything I want.'

But as he looked at the grey-haired woman by the fire, he had completely different thoughts than those he had with Jasmine.

'I will find a way to eliminate Arya when the time comes and blame it on the Irwin family thieves. Ultimately, I'll have Jasmine's heart and half the coins the thief stole!' He looked around mischievously, a terrifying smile on his face.

But while Mark was thinking about these plans for the near future, Jasmine suddenly opened her eyes as her gem glow faded and her pentagram slowly returned to her body.

"I have their trail back." She said as she saw in front of her what looked like a group of three carriages and several men, all made up of a red aura.

Jasmine's magical form made her an excellent investigator. All she needed was a small clue to trace the entire journey of her targets and thus locate them.

Seeing the trail left by her targets, Jasmine smiled as she held a piece of metal in her hands, which connected her to the Irwin estate thief.

"How many more days do we have to travel?" The girl asked her companion.

Jasmine said. "I don't know. Every time the enemy group stops, they lose much of their advantage. They're weaker than us, so we're more rapid. But if they keep moving, they could add days, maybe weeks, to our journey."

"It doesn't matter. Everything will be fine if we can catch up with them." Mark commented, eager to continue his journey searching for the Irwin property thieves.

"Yeah. Let's keep going."

With that, it wouldn't be long before the group returned on the road, heading for Alpine Woodpecker Forest!
