Chapter 203 Final Preparations?
Meanwhile, at the Mazzanti estate…
Vicente had just arrived, dressed in a fine suit with the smell of wine on his body.
As he entered his estate, he didn’t speak to any of his men about the outcome of the robbery, nor did anyone there bother him about it.
Having already left the man struck by one of his lightning bolts in one of the taverns in his territory, Vicente arrived alone to deal with the Scarlet Syndicate men.
He walked up to the people sent by the leader of that local underworld faction, greeted them, and after a brief introduction, began to talk about serious things.
“Well, let’s not divert our plans any longer. I’ll be leaving Millfall soon to hunt Magic Pentagrams with my men, so I’ll teach you the basics for the next two days. After that, you’ll be able to continue without my presence.” He said to the men.
Hearing that, one of the men there, eager to learn, asked. “How will we resolve our doubts in your absence?”
Learning the basics was the most important thing in anything new. From the basic techniques, one could often develop one’s skills related to them, even without a guide.
But of course, having someone to correct them when they made mistakes could make a difference in how quickly they learned to develop the weapons they would be responsible for creating.
Vicente said. “What I will teach you in these two days will be enough for the most talented of you to learn all you need to on your own. As long as you practice every day, you’ll master it in two or three weeks. 𝐞𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺
Making these weapons is not as difficult as you might think. The main thing is to take care of their final assembly so that only we can take them apart without damaging them.
But even if one of you has a question, I’ll have some of my men, who I have already trained to assemble these weapons, help you. This should be enough for you to start making these weapons yourselves in a month.”
Cesar looked like a genius, and knowing his metalworking skills, none of these men doubted his talent for forging.
What was easy for him wasn’t necessarily easy for them!
However, after hearing that even the men in this group could do such a thing, not even the most concerned about Vicente’s absence continued to question him.
With the agreement of these men, Vicente soon began to show them the pieces they would need to forge to assemble the model of the weapon he had promised Brody.
He did this for a few minutes until one of his men approached him with a soldier from the royal army.
Arriving in that room where several men from the Scarlet Syndicate were studying the production methods of weapons components, the soldier sent by Nova sweated as he saw several well-known names in this city standing there with Cesar.
‘It seems the Scarlet Syndicate is closer to the Mazzanti family than before…’ He thought to himself, more afraid of questioning Cesar because of Nova’s request.
“It seems Mister Mazzanti is busy. I think maybe I should come here another time. I really don’t want to get in the way.” He said, thinking that Cesar probably had nothing to do with today’s incident.
The level 1 Acolyte next to him smiled under his mask, seeing that his leader was gaining more and more respect locally.
Vicente’s entire group had been expecting soldiers to knock on their door tonight. It didn’t take a genius to predict such a thing. After all, they were the fastest-growing group, and their name had been talked about all over town. It was only natural that they would be considered after an event of such proportions at the Irwin estate.
When one of Vicente’s men heard the royal soldier’s comment, he couldn’t help but feel good to see that even if the soldier was there to question what Vice had done that night, such a man seemed scared and not so interested in being accusatory.
That was great!
But Vicente was already looking in his direction and soon left the Scarlet Syndicate men studying alone to approach such a soldier.
“Royal soldiers are always welcome on my property,” Vicente said in a good-natured tone. “As a citizen of the kingdom, it is my duty to help the royal forces whenever they come to my home.
Captain, what can I do for you today?”
The man was pleased to see that Vicente wasn’t as defensive and overbearing as old underworld members and was quite approachable even with his already high local position.
“Mister Mazzanti, I’m sorry to disturb you. I was sent here to ask simple questions. After that, I will leave.” The black-haired soldier said.
“What did you do tonight?”
“Tonight?” Vicente asked in a surprised tone. “Before I came here to meet my friends, I had a drink with one of my clients.”
Before coming here, Vicente had dropped off the man he was carrying on his back at River and Zander’s tavern.
He had already instructed them to close their tavern earlier that day for a “dinner” between them, where he had had a few drinks while leaving his man there earlier.
Since the two of them already knew what to talk about if they were questioned, Vicente wasn’t worried and had a better alibi than some of his local enemies might have expected from him.
‘Who in the army sent this idiot to me? Is it Nova?’ Vicente thought to himself, aware that the beautiful woman had helped him but that she had only done so to pay off her debt to him.
This had not been the sign of an ally who would help him. It had been the gesture of an enemy who didn’t want to owe him a favor.
Smelling wine coming from Vicente’s body, the soldier believed him. “Is that so?”
The soldier was glad to hear that because he didn’t want any trouble with a monster like Vicente, who could eliminate even mid-level Acolytes even when he was a Senior Apprentice.
But now, Cesar was a level 1 Acolyte, which made him many times stronger than before!
“If that’s all, I have no further questions. I’ll pass this information on to the superior who sent me here, and I believe everything will be fine.” He smiled before shaking Vicente’s hand.
“Hmm, say hello in my name to this person,” Vicente said before watching him leave, the last annoyance he would have to deal with tonight.
After that, he would use a break later in the evening to count his winnings from today’s attack and distribute some of the potions and resources to his men.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t show much buying power to avoid attracting the attention of the Scarlet Syndicate or the local powers, so Vice kept most of the coins and resources he had earned tonight.
When he went to Ironcrest, he could use them to buy resources for his family secretly!
