Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Hours passed, and it was the evening before Vicente left for The Rocky Gorge.

After much pressure on Jasmine and investigations by his people, Vicente managed to get her to sign an agreement promising to help him with the secrets of the Congregation of Revelations.

Jasmine still hadn’t told Vicente what she could give him. However, after seeing him next to Casey Rogers, the famous Mister Amnesia she knew, the woman’s fear of what might happen to her had increased.

She agreed to help him in the future and even share her faith’s secrets. But this would depend on her increasing her influence and position in the Congregation of Revelations and Vicente increasing his powers. .𝓬ℴ𝓶

His knowledge of any high-level information about it would be dangerous for both of them. To prevent them from having high-level problems while they were weak, Jasmine had made Vicente agree not to press her for these secrets before he became a Sovereign.

From Jasmine’s point of view, there was a good chance that wouldn’t happen. Even if it did, he and she would be strong enough to at least try to escape the problems that would come their way because of their formalized relationship tonight.

Until then, they would only help each other in matters that had nothing to do with the secrets of the Congregation of Revelation.

…

“What are you going to do with them?” Jasmine asked Vicente as she finally left the cell where she had spent the last few days, feeling the freedom of no longer having several restrictive items on her.

Seeing his new ally who couldn’t betray him now that she had made a Magic Agreement with him, Vicente made no secret of it. “It will be better if they die. With what they know, we’re all in danger.”

Their Magic Agreement stated that if the previous incident led to problems or even Vicente’s death, Jasmine would be severely punished.

Magic Agreements were made based on the magical mark of those involved, which would be used as a means of punishment in the event of non-compliance.

How did this come about? Well, it was complex. But to put it simply, it had to do with the elements.

The elements had their classifications, rules, and a kind of ‘consciousness.’

When a person makes a promise with their elements as witnesses, the strange ‘conscience’ of the elements would recognize that promise and begin to watch over them.

If a contract were broken, the party that broke it would have a change generated in them by this elemental ‘consciousness.’ They might lose complete control over their elements or even die, depending on the circumstances.

But this ‘consciousness’ wasn’t like something that could take shape, have a reason, or even act purposefully. It was something that basically only worked with Magic Agreements and served as a witness to the promises of all parties.

That’s why, in this world, it’s very difficult to break a contract, even though there are ways to do it!

How do you break a contract without punishing yourself? Simply by stealing and destroying the other party’s copy of the contract.

That was how Vicente had pressured the Peters family after arriving in Millfall.

But it wasn’t that simple, which is why Vicente was confident that he could free Jasmine so that she could go back, reduce the chances of them getting into trouble, and still act on his behalf.

She couldn’t go after him or send someone else. Any deliberate attempt to break the contract would result in punishment. For her, the only way she could escape her obligations was if another party planned to act against Vicente and destroy his agreement with her without her involvement.

But at the moment, Jasmine herself didn’t expect that to happen. She was willing to fulfill her promise, so she was worried about the possibility of Mark and Layla doing something stupid.

She looked seriously at the holes in Vicente’s mask and said. “Mark will probably try something stupid, so I don’t care what you do to him and those he has involved in the problem. I’m even willing to help you deal with them. But Layla is my friend. I want you to give her a chance.”

“Why should I do that?” Vicente asked.

Since there was no advantage in keeping the woman alive, he wasn’t interested in doing what Jasmine wanted.

She was obligated to honor her agreement with him, and if she could not convince him to change his mind, she might even be forced to help him deal with her best friend!

Jasmine broke into a cold sweat and said. “Having just one person in the Congregation of Revelations isn’t enough for someone like you to benefit from, Cesar.

If you’re going to get the best results in our temples, you need to have several people you can trust. Layla could be such a person. She is a good friend of mine and has the same level of talent as me. And even though her background is ordinary, because she’s my friend, I might be able to help her increase her influence within the organization.

Besides, I won’t always be able to deal with you. Sometimes we won’t be together because of the events I have to attend. On the other hand, Layla doesn’t have as many responsibilities as I do and could be a more active ally for you.”

“Hmm, that makes sense. But she’ll have to sign an agreement just as compromising as yours, Jasmine. Without guarantees, I won’t keep a second witness to what happened alive.” Vicente didn’t disagree, seeing that there would be real advantages to having Layla in his group of allies.

“I’ll make sure she accepts it,” Jasmine said, not wanting to lose her good friend. “You won’t regret it, Cesar. Layla is very loyal and smart. She will be precious to you in the future.”

“We’ll see in the future.” He walked before her and returned to the first floor while forming a metal mask for Jasmine.

“Use this to leave the city and then return to the local temple. It won’t be interesting if you leave my house without something to hide your identity.”

“Okay.” She didn’t question him, and promptly pulled the mask over her face as she left the Mazzanti mansion when it was already dark in the city.

“Stay in town for the next few days so we can resolve the issue with your companions. I’ll take a short trip to The Rocky Gorge, but I shouldn’t be gone more than a week.” He warned her, intending to leave her there to support his group in his absence.

Jasmine was very talented and influential!

“Good luck with your hunt. When Layla or Mark arrive in town, I’ll try to approach them with your men. With Mister Amnesia, we’ll be able to find out who knows about what happened and deal with it.” She said before leaving.

Vicente would soon return to his house, where he would say goodbye to Nina that night because, at dawn, he would leave for The Rocky Gorge.

With almost level 3 magic power this time, he was much more confident of surviving that dangerous area where a 3rd-stage magic beast had nested!
