Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 982  Someone As Shocking As Vicente

Entering a room with a large glass table and a view of the city center, Vicente ignored the holographic screens here and there, keeping an eye on the brown-haired woman who sat in front of him with a smile on her face.

”Youʼre hiding your appearance...” she said as she flashed her very white teeth at him, obviously identifying Vicente.

”You...”

”Donʼt worry.” She gestured with her hands, seeing the hardened expression on his face. ”Iʼll keep your secret, if you like. Zigam informed me that you were coming.”

Vicenteʼs eyebrows rose as he immediately summoned from his spatial ring the box and the message the man had sent. ”In that case, he must have warned you about it, too.”

”Yes, thank you for bringing them to me. Iʼll pass them on to my fiancé.” She smiled as she received the item and the message without paying much attention to them. ”Anyway, can you tell me why youʼre hiding your identity?”

He looked through the glass lenses on his face, focused on this womanʼs black eyes. For a moment, he didnʼt know what to answer. The answer was so obvious that her question caught him off guard.

”Because of my pentagram configuration?”

”Your pentagram configuration is really impressive.” She nodded as she snuggled into her armchair. ”But there are many special people on Light Cay, Mr. Fuller. Besides, on an island like ours, where we can easily afford artificial enhancements to the grade of our pentagrams, configurations close to yours arenʼt hard to find.”

ʼPerhaps for a group in control of such a wealthy force, this really is easy to achieve.ʼ He looked around and smiled.

”Miss Alicia, I donʼt know much about this world, but Iʼm afraid youʼve lost touch with reality. Stonewall is one of the strongest sects in Light Cay, no, the strongest, but even so, I havenʼt seen any disciples with a pentagram configuration close to mine. Even some of the Magus that I watched fight werenʼt that special.”

She didnʼt take his comment negatively. ”On the one hand, youʼre right. Really, for the vast majority of people, youʼre an unreachable monster.” She showed one of her hands to Vicente, forming a small sprout, while small, glowing pentagrams appeared around this magical form.

ʼGreen, Green, Cyan, Cyan, indigo, indigo and indigo...ʼ Vicente narrowed his eyes as he felt Aliciaʼs magical power and couldnʼt help but recognize the womanʼs potential.

Compared to him, she was second only to those two green pentagrams!

But even that was no big deal, since she could certainly nurture them to higher levels with the support of the Manifold Family.

ʼI see... Alicia is really precious to the family. Itʼs no wonder they appointed me as her trainer.ʼ

As a 2-Star Magus, this woman could become a monster just like him when she became an 8-pentagram Grand Magus. At that time, she could have 4 cyan and 4 indigo pentagrams, a terrifying configuration!

She continued, ”But on the other hand, youʼre wrong. There are more people similar to you on this continent than the forces capable of killing us have the capacity to act upon.

A hundred thousand years ago, a genius greater than me, similar to you, appeared on our island and was assassinated by a group that existed at the time. A month later, a team made up of magicians with a similar magical configuration to that individual moved in, exterminating that sect.

Since then, hunting down great geniuses has become taboo. Everyone with a similar talent looks at cases like this with great sensitivity. ʼIf something like that happened to them, why shouldnʼt it happen to me?ʼ Such thinking changed our island, causing the Violet Association to be formed and establishing rules for killing on the island.”

{Master, the Violet Association transformed Light Cay and because of it, we can say today that we are an island that follows the path of light and is one of the most peaceful parts of Anicane.}

Vicente heard Aliciaʼs words as he read Prisicheʼs reply.

He hadnʼt expected to hear about such a thing there, something he had almost neglected in his studies over the last year.

However, even hearing and reading such a thing, Vicente was skeptical of the idea propagated by this place that they lived on a peaceful island without the problems of other parts of the cultivation world.

Cultivation was something that went against external desires, a desire to achieve something that had never been achieved before. How could people following such a path be so good and righteous, as these two seemed to mean with their carefree and confident words?

”Even so, I prefer to keep my identity a secret, if possible. Anyway, Iʼm curious. The moment I arrived here, I swore Iʼd find someone more or less in my situation.” He changed the subject by relaxing his expression. ”Is it common for those sponsored by the Manifold Family to work inside one of their establishments?”

She relaxed too, letting the dense subject of a moment ago die down. ”No, Iʼm a special case.” She smiled. ”Iʼm engaged to a family member, so my benefits have multiplied, haha. Iʼm gradually moving from being a sponsored member to becoming an actual member of the family.

But you can do that too. There are good single women who would certainly love to be with you, Iʼm sure of it.”

”Iʼm not interested. Although the benefits sound great, I have other plans for the future.”

She was silent before asking. ”Anyway, are you ready to train me? I was told that you would eventually be my training partner. But it was expected to take another year to start. Youʼre a bit ahead of schedule.”

”Yes, Iʼm ready.” He assured her, certain that she was underestimating him because he was one level below her.

As she wondered if he would be able to train her, he couldnʼt help but be excited to fight someone as strong as him for the first time in his life!

”Then accompany me to my individual training room. Oh, donʼt worry, no one will know who you are there, so you can use your powers and reveal your actual appearance.” She laughed as she led the way.
