Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 802 Visitors Arrive?

While Nova and Vicente were dealing with the situation of the survivors in Saltstar City, visitors arrived in Metal City and Grandis that day!”,

A group of people from the Chutha Dynasty had just entered the safe area of the capital city, looking around with interest.

Seeing that the rumors that had reached them about what was happening in the Trevora Kingdom were like the reality of this city, the five envoys couldnʼt help but look at each other with interest.

”The rumors about Vicente Fuller are true. He really has incredible forging skills and can protect cities, as the king of Trevora Kingdom says.” Said one of the two Paragons in the group.

The crown prince of the dynasty, a Sky Sovereign, heard this comment from the chief guard of his group, one of the last five Paragons of the dynasty. He said. ”According to the message we received from Trevora Kingdom, Vicente Fuller shouldnʼt have done this in Seidel Kingdom before he left to hunt pentagrams in the north. In that case, heʼs already back in the kingdom.”

”Hmm, thatʼs good. We didnʼt miss our trip, Your Highness.” said the other Paragon, of the same level as his colleague, a magician recently promoted to 5th stage.

Once they had passed through Grandis security zone, escorted by a trio of royal soldiers in 4th stage armor, they entered the built-up area of the kingdomʼs capital.

The city was much more organized and attractive now than it had been when Vicente had arrived a little over a month ago.

There werenʼt as many tents in the middle of the streets, and the citizens seemed more hopeful about the future. You could see it in their expressions, but also in the aura of the weakest, who went back to working and consuming as they had before the disaster.

The most distressing aspect of the disaster for regular individuals was not their inability to escape their cities. The continent was already dangerous enough for ordinary people to leave their hometowns. The problem for such people was the lack of opportunity, the weakening of trade, and the death of powerful individuals who could hire them.

Even though the continent was a blazing inferno with rivers of blood gushing here and there, for ordinary people, if their city was functioning, everything would be fine.

Of course, it was sad to know the reality of the continent, and it would worry ordinary people to some extent. But as long as the problems were contained, the ordinary citizens of cities like Grandis lived their lives normally.

This was a significant sign to these visitors. Even though the hope of mankind was in the strongest magicians, not in the ordinary people, the strong needed the weak and ordinary to do their jobs and make their lives easier.

A prominent sign for the future of a city in the present context was the mood of the poorest and simplest people!

While they were observing this, the group from the Chutha dynasty arrived at the kingdomʼs seat of government, where King Seidel and his daughter were already waiting for this group of visitors.

This wasnʼt the first group to come to their city since Vicenteʼs return. Four days ago, a group from the Kenyth Empire had passed through in search of Vicente before the royal family directed them to Metal City.

In addition to the group that had already left the capital for Metal City, another group was currently in Grandis, a group from a neighboring kingdom to the west of the Chutha Dynasty, comprising five Sky Sovereigns.

”Welcome to my humble city, envoys from the Chutha Dynasty.” King Seidel greeted these men, two old men and three talented young men, the prince and two of his friends and allies.

The arrogant prince of the Chutha Dynasty stepped forward, showing a different demeanor than his frame would suggest, and greeted the king with humility.

”Your Royal Majesty, itʼs a pleasure to meet you.” The prince, of the same level as King Seidel, said as Lina and her father looked into his eyes. ”With the situation the continent is in right now, we canʼt waste any time. So Iʼll come straight to the point. Iʼm looking for Vicente Fuller. Iʼve heard that heʼs a great 5th-stage blacksmith, and as far as I can see, thatʼs true.”

He looked at Lina, sensing the quality of the red armor the dark-haired woman wore.

The king didnʼt want to make too much of it either, though he liked the possibilities that alliances and friendship with this group could bring to his state. ”Vicente Fuller is a very busy magician, Your Highness. I donʼt know exactly where he is. What I can tell you is that heʼs in Scott Province, and his family is in Metal City.

I can show your party the way to Metal City, but I canʼt guarantee that youʼll find Vicente there. He must be working to ensure the safety of the cities and his interests in the area.”

”Then I thank Your Majesty. My state is in a terrible situation, so Iʼll go to this Metal City immediately.”

”Please accompany me.” The king motioned toward the train station of his city, where a train would leave for the Metal City in three days.

The group from the Kenyth Empire didnʼt want to wait for the train and started their journey to the Metal City on their own. But the king thought it was worth waiting for the next train for this group of newcomers, as well as for the group that had arrived in his city yesterday.

...

While the Chutha Dynasty group followed the king to learn where Metal City was and the fastest way to get there, the Kenyth Empire group was already halfway there.

The red-haired man, leader of one of the Kenyth Empireʼs remaining cities, the Low-level Paragon, who had left his place earlier, was now flying on the back of his mount with his two human companions on this journey.

His mount was no less impressive than this red-haired fellowʼs cultivation. As an early 5th-stage Light Phoenix, this creature was very fast. They could reach Metal City in no more than two days!

As he thought about this while feeling the strong wind blowing on his face, the Low-level Paragon couldnʼt help but think about the reunion he was looking forward to.

ʼThe king said that Heidi lives there... I hope sheʼs well.ʼ He thought of Roryʼs mother, his former lover during his travels through the Seidel Kingdom, a little over 25 years ago.
