Chapter 265 Getting Professionals (1)

Five days after Vicente's arrival in Millfall...

Vicente was now at the door of the Oak estate in a noble area of the city.

The Oak family was not noble, much less one of the richest locally. But being a family of alchemists, a highly sought-after profession in Polaris Realm, their financial situation wasn't bad. They had a big residence in the area where the wealthiest people in the city lived.

Once again in such a wealthy neighborhood, Vicente looked at the beautiful gray-walled estate in front of him, where he could see a large garden and a residence at the end of the property, large enough to accommodate more than 20 people comfortably.

But the Oak family didn't have that many members. There were only three other women and four servants besides Lukas, his sister, their father and mother.

All the other subordinates of the Oak family only served them by doing outside work, without living on their property, which happened in sects and clans.

The Oak Family was not a clan, far from it.

Though they weren't prominent and didn't have many members, the Oak Family's estate was well maintained, enough to please the eyes of others and its few residents.

As he looked at the place with Casey by his side, Vicente, without his mask, watched as someone came to open the entrance for them.

"Do you think this is a good idea?" The man with several tattoos all over his body and long black hair asked with a neutral expression.

"Every action has its risks." Vicente understood what his family associate had in mind. "Anyone we try to bring into the Mazzanti family will have risks associated with them. But we can't shrink. Not growing is the same as going backward."

"Well, if I have to, I'll erase their memory of today's conversation." Casey sighed, aware he was there because Vicente had already foreseen the possibility that someone among those they would meet would decide not to make a deal with the family.

"That's the spirit." Vicente smiled and then stepped forward to see Lukas himself coming to greet him at the door of his house.

"Vicente..." Lukas commented as he looked at them, not expecting to see his friend with a stranger.

"Are you two friends?" He asked as he looked at Casey and greeted him.

Lukas wasn't a nobleman, let alone someone with local influence. He didn't know who Casey Rogers was.

"Yes, my name is Casey. We're in the same group." The tanned man beside Vicente replied as he shook one of Luke's hands.

"Casey is practically family to me. So he's here to join me in today's conversation. I hope that's not a problem."

"Not at all. A friend of yours is certainly a friend of mine." Lukas said with a smile and accepted the stranger into his home.

"Please come with me. I live at the back of the building. My friends are waiting for us at my residence."

"How many of your associates have you managed to gather?" Vicente asked, ignoring the front yard of the Oak estate, from which he could smell an intense medicinal odor.

"Four. Two who had already received offers from your friend Rory, and two others. Two engineers, an enchanter, and a doctor."

The alchemist who had met Rory with these others was out of town. Other than that, Lukas had no other contacts close enough to introduce to Vicente.

"Okay, let's work with that," Vicente said, feeling it was a pity that there were no alchemists among the four. Otherwise, he would have had a perfect group to bring over to his side.

'I will look for Liam Young before I leave Millfall for the basilisk hunt... He can make a great addition to the Mazzanti family's alchemy department.' Vicente remembered the alchemist he had done business with shortly after he started working locally.

Liam was supposed to be an Acolyte by now. As someone capable of producing items of great purity at the 1st stage, he certainly had a great talent and could become important in the future.

While he was planning to find Liam, the three arrived at the residence where four young people between the ages of 17 and 21 were waiting for them in a attractive living room.

"My friends, as promised, Vicente Fuller. He's here to offer you some business... To all of us, actually." Lukas said as he introduced Vice.

"This next to him is Casey Rogers, a friend of Vicente."

The two newcomers greeted the three men and one woman in the living room of Luke's house by nodding as they listened to their names and professions.

As he listened to their presentation, Vicente saw they all had excellent talents, the weakest being level 2 Acolytes and the strongest level 3.

On the other hand, while Vicente rated them positively, Lukas' four associates looked at him, but mostly at Casey, for this long-haired man was already at level 5.

Reaching level 5 at a young age was difficult, but it was also a sign that such a magician could pass the 3rd stage with relative ease. Beyond that, there wasn't much to say, so only time would tell if Casey would go much further or if he would get stuck between the end of the 3rd stage and the beginning of the 4th.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Vicente began casually. "At the last meeting, I couldn't meet you because of some problems, but my friend and right-hand man was with you. He told me some great things that brought me here today."

The two who had already been contacted by Rory, a man, and a woman, were the least surprised but also the most smiling of the four, as they had already agreed to his offer and only needed to hear the end of it.

"What I'm offering you is full support in exchange for your exclusivity. I have many men who depend on resources that you will surely be able to help us produce. So I invite you to join my family and grow side by side."

Seeing the smile on Vicente's face, the level 3 doctor, the strongest there at the moment, asked seriously. "What's the catch? Why are you willing to give us so much? You must have a problem that puts you in such a situation, right? Hiring so many professionals at once is unusual."

Everyone there had their greed, but some were more concerned than others about the consequences of their decisions.

Before deciding on something that could significantly compromise them, part of them wanted to know what the worst could be.

Vicente looked at Lukas and then at Casey, and sat down in a chair. "There are problems, and it will affect those who accompanied me."

As he spoke, his first pentagram appeared, and a decorative metal object next to him changed shape, catching the attention of the five who didn't know of Vicente's abilities.
