Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Unable to think of an answer to his question, Vicente tried to continue his approach to the strongest opponents in the city, even listening to the conversations of the Sky Sovereigns and some 5th stage monsters from a distance.",

"Negative news from Redvein. It seems that Vicente Fuller is in the kingdom, helping to improve the defenses of the cities in the northwest of the territory."

"Oh? He must have finished his plans in Seidel Kingdom, no? He has been stationed there for months. His sudden appearance in the empire is not expected."

"Perhaps he's planning to act against us?"

"That would be great. None of the elders will punish us if we drink the blood of this human if he attacks us!"

Vicente listened to the voices of his enemies and was not surprised that these creatures were talking about him.

After all he had done for the magical community, it was to be expected the strongest monsters and vampires in the region would know who he was and keep an eye on his movements.

Vicente had been killing monsters near Redvein for the past few days. But apparently there were witnesses, even though he thought he had killed all the beings in his recent actions.

'There must be some kind of special monsters among the groups scattered across the continent, master. That would explain how they could know your position with such a good time difference.' Torne said as Vicente looked in the direction of the city center.

"He is a stone in our path. If it weren't for him, we'd be done dominating the central region and half a step away from dominating the south."

"But we can't take him lightly. With such a powerful talent and magical form, the elders will want to suck his blood personally."

"Sigh! It's difficult to deal with someone like him. Our only alternative is for him to make the mistake of attacking us. Otherwise, we'll have to put up with the current situation for a few more years."

"How long do you think it will take for the elders to end their seclusion?"

"Old Marcus is one of the most impressive in terms of cultivation speed, and he was also one of the first in the alliance to begin his current seclusion. He should finish absorbing human blood in 3 or 4 years at the most."

"It will take our great leader six years to come out of seclusion. By then, the continent will be completely under our control, with or without the existence of Vicente Fuller!" said an old-looking vampire, with white hair and red eyes, pale skin that hid his many white hairs well.

'This is not an awful period of time for us. If these vampires can be trusted, we could have three to six years for you to become a High-level Paragon and add one or two more pentagrams to your Throne of Darkness.' Torne said hopefully.

It wasn't a long time, but it wasn't short either, considering the terrible situation the continent was in.

Between 3 and 6 years, Nina would already be an Earth Sovereign or even a Sky Sovereign, while there should be Paragons in Seidel Kingdom besides the ones that already existed.

Vicente and Torne also hoped that a new Archmage of humanity would emerge from among the current High-level Paragons during this period. Someone like that could help him on his journey north and even be helped by him during a pentagram hunt.

That should be enough for Annie not to have to grow up her whole childhood without a father. Vicente thought of his soon-to-be-born daughter and felt his heart beat faster with an unwavering determination to win.

As he thought this, the 6th stage monster in this city, a Cerberus, suddenly raised one of its heads, facing northeast.

The other two heads of this monstrous-looking creature, with a snake tail and an undead body, showing off the inner parts of its being, noticed that something was wrong.

"Something is wrong." He said to the high-ranking vampires and monsters in the city, making them put aside their duties, conversations, and other matters to turn their attention to him.

"Guardian, what did you feel? What's wrong?" The vampire leader of the city asked as the creature from the beginning of the 6th stage looked in the direction where Vicente was hiding.

Having come a long way while listening to the local chatter, Vicente was now in the center of Graypoint, less than a kilometer from 70% of the strongest monsters in the city.

The Cerberus ignored the 4th stage vampire and raised its voice against Vicente.

"Human! I know you're there! Stop hiding and show yourself!" The creature shouted as its terrifying aura left its body, creating a brutal pressure in the center of the city.

All the beings, except for the superior vampires with lower cultivation than this creature, felt the change of mana in the air as their bodies went numb and sweat broke out from the pores of their bodies.

The many human slaves in the center of the city fainted at the powerful presence of the Cerberus, whose fighting intent alone could scare even early 5th stage warriors.

Monsters naturally had a terrifying aura that could suppress the power of magicians, causing them to panic in the face of the intensity of the monsters' power and murderous intent.

Since this was a Dark Path being, its powers were naturally extraordinary, capable of easily defeating Light Path magicians.

All the superior vampires looked in the direction of the hideous dog's three heads, where Vicente was gradually shedding his invisibility.

"You're not so easy to deal with, huh? You figured me out sooner than I thought." Vicente commented, a smile forming on his face as his seven pentagrams emerged from his body.

The Throne of Darkness appeared behind Vicente, with darkness covering part of his body, forming a black cloak and crown.

A metal weapon shaped like a trident appeared in his right hand, its pentagrams vibrating as the mana in the area changed.

The Cerberus' aura suddenly diminished, while the sky rapidly darkened, with lightning appearing here and there, thunder scaring the souls of those unprepared for its appearance.

Even the strongest superior vampires in the city felt goosebumps on their bodies, identifying Vicente as they circulated their mana and let their pentagrams emerge from their bodies.

The Cerberus itself changed, forming more solemn expressions on its three heads as it came face to face with the master of darkness.
