Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 1030 Departure Time

Chapter 1030  Departure Time

Time passed and the fifth year since Vicente and Nan's agreement, just over 6 years since he arrived in Light Cay, was finally upon him!

When he heard from Prisiche that the anniversary of his agreement with Nan was only a week away, Vicente left his cultivation room, exposing a peak 7th stage aura to all who saw him now.

After only 6 years in Light Cay, he had reached the absolute peak of the 9-Star of the 7th stage, the threshold for becoming a Grand Magus!

But as he had previously predicted, he had no chance of advancing stages yet in Light Cay. Having already fully adapted to the island, advancing from now on would be a bit of hard work for Vicente.

He was calm, however. Reaching the end of the 7th stage was more than he expected to achieve in such a short time in Anicane. His last 6 years in Polaris Realm hadn't given him even 10% of the progress he'd made in the same period in Light Cay!

"Where is everyone?" he asked Prisiche, seeing the city again after almost 3 months locked in a cultivation room.

He had occasionally come out of seclusion to complete his responsibilities and fight for the rank of Combat Center. But after achieving his promotion to Core Disciple just 3 months ago, he had spent the last 12 weeks locked away in seclusion, having reached his current level at that time.

"They're already waiting for you, master. They all know you'll be leaving soon, so they've returned from their positions in anticipation of the end of your seclusion," Prisiche said with a smile on her face, eager to leave Light Cay.

As Vicente had reached an agreement with the Elders of the sect, and would continue to be a member of Stonewall, even traveling off the island, she would be able to accompany him.

Even though she was an artificial intelligence, there were many things about the world outside the island that she didn't know and was eager to learn. She guided Vicente with a bright smile on her lips, soon arriving at the faction's headquarters, where the first person they encountered was a rat-faced man.

"Master." Vicente greeted Collins, who was currently on the same level as him, but now sported a special uniform, showing the world that he was now an Inner Elder.

Collins had benefited greatly from having a disciple like Vicente, even though he had only had a short time at Vicente's side. Six years had been enough for Vice to help him improve his position in the sect and even learn more about sorcery.

The rat-headed man grinned at Vicente, escorting his pupil in the art of sorcery inside the faction's headquarters.

There Vicente came across all the important members of his faction, but also some friends, allies, and instructors he had had over the years in Stonewall.

Miles, instructor of the Combat Center, 6-Star Magus, Alice, instructor of the Medicine Center, 7-Star Magus, were next to Rex, 9-Star Magus, and some of the first members of {Golden Partners}.

In a corner of the area, Larissa, who had recently reached at 7-Star, stood next to two Inner Elders and the only Core Elder there for today's meeting.

Vicente greeted everyone with a glass of drink and said a few words, promising that this was not a last farewell and that he would be back to surprise them.

Of this group, only Rex and Larissa would be traveling with him, apart from Prisiche, of course. But even without its founders, the faction had to keep going and carry on with the plans it had created over the five years of its existence.

Vicente named the new leader, who would be in charge after his departure and ended his speech by saying about his departure, scheduled for the morning of the following day.

As soon as he had finished speaking, he approached his colleagues and friends, hearing from each of them wishes of good luck, congratulations on his pre-departure strengthening, but also reminders of old agreements.

The Core Elder there, the only one who could hierarchically command a Core Disciple, gave Vicente something and said, "Go ahead with Fairy Nan's group, but be careful. She's probably not planning anything nefarious behind your back, but that doesn't mean she won't betray you or introduce you to people who will do you harm.

Stay cautious, Disciple Fuller. Use this here as your last defensive measure, should you run into trouble."

Vicente looked at what was there and opened his eyes wide, seeing something valuable even to the sect.

Before Vice could even thank him, the Core Elder said, "This is for you to keep your promises alive. Go ahead as a member of the sect and make the deals that you know will raise our standing. We'll look forward to hearing from you."

The old man turned his back on Vicente and, without looking back or giving the boy a chance, he disappeared.

Vicente kept what the Core Elder had given him, something that could really do a lot to help keep him alive.

He smiled to himself, determined to repay the sect's investment in him with his efforts after leaving the island. Soon he would be back talking to his guests, listening to their words of good luck and thanks for everything he had done for them over the last few years.

This was not a party, but a farewell. After their words and the different individuals there sorting out what they had to sort out, most of them left within minutes of the warning they had received from Prisiche.

One of the last to leave was Collins, who stopped next to his disciple and, with a squeeze on one of the young man's shoulders, wished him well.

"I hope you find your family when they come to Anicane, Vice. I know you'll stay alive and become stronger, so just do what your judgment tells you is best. I'll wait in the sect to hear your stories."

Vicente thanked his master, smiling and saying that he would wait to see him at the 8th stage.

Soon he was alone with Rex, Prisiche, and Larissa.

"Are you guys ready?" he asked the golden lion and the white-haired woman.

With an affirmative nod from both of them, he arranged for them to meet the next day at the airport, from where they would leave for the city just three days away from the meeting place with Nan.
