497 The Truth

After doing what was necessary to formalize his relationship with Nina, Newton said. “Nina, you arrived in the city with your sister today, right? So, I will give you three days to rest from the trip and familiarize yourself with the academy where you will complete your basic training. After that, we’ll meet every day after your classes at the academy. You will accompany me until nightfall.” 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝘮

That meant she would be under Newton’s tutelage for an hour or two.

“Is that all?” Nina asked unconsciously.

“For now, yes. When you finish the basic academy and turn 10, we’ll increase it a bit. But it will be enough. You’ll see that in no time.” He patted one of her shoulders twice before turning to Vicente.

“Is that all right with you? Nina’s caretaker can come along with one or two of her guards. Saltstar City is not a safe city, so she must have reliable people to escort her through the local streets.”

Vicente agreed. “I know. I’ll ensure they don’t get in the way of Nina’s studies.”

Newton then looked at Eve. “Miss, why don’t you show Nina around? You can look at any of the rooms here. You’ll be coming here a lot in a short time, so familiarize yourself with the house.”

Eve took one of Nina’s hands and soon began leading the black-

haired young woman through the large residence while Vicente stayed behind with Newton.

“So?” The professor asked. “What happened in Millfall? You left early because of the fall of the Mazzanti family, right?”

Vicente expected to be asked about this and said. “Yes, we had to leave that city because we were deeply connected to the Mazzanti family. We may not have seemed that committed on the surface, but if we stayed there any longer, we’d have problems. So I decided to move forward.”

“What caused all the sudden changes in the town?” Newton asked. “If I’m not mistaken, Cesar faked his own end, right? What could have forced him to do that?”

“As expected from the professor,” Vicente commented with a smile on his face. “You’re right. He faked his own death. But it was for a good reason; he had problems with powerful forces, and if he stood still, he would be hunted down by the Sovereigns very soon.”

“Oh? Speak more frankly, Vicente Fuller. I won’t reveal this to anyone, even if Cesar has made a terrible mistake. My main interest is to see him grow and shock the continent.” Newton understood that the young man before him was smoothing things over.

Vicente sighed and said, knowing that Newton would find out sooner or later. “Cesar killed a colonel in the royal army. Sovereign Adams recognized him as a potential culprit in the escape from Lang Bay Correctional Facility and confronted him. Out of options, Don Mazzanti did what he did shortly after initiating a special protocol to forge the end of the family.

Newton opened his mouth in shock when he heard this, surprised not at Cesar’s involvement in such an escape but that such an individual was already capable of killing an Earth Sovereign.

But thinking about what Vicente had just told him, Newton quickly understood that it all made a lot of sense. The release of Snow Claw and other prisoners had caused quite a stir in the province over the past few months, diverting the attention of the provincial powers away from the problems surrounding the Mazzanti family.

‘I understand. He wanted to grow up in peace and solve old problems by creating a bigger problem by releasing those prisoners. Good move, Cesar. Too bad it didn’t work.’

“Did you know all this?” Newton asked.

“Part of it. I found out the rest after Cesar told his associates what he was up to. Anyway, I don’t know where he is now, but he’s alive and well, that’s for sure. He has new plans, but he still wants to meet you in a few months, Professor. I’ll tell you how to contact him when the time comes.”

Hearing that from Vicente, Newton felt relieved. “Then I thank you. As for what you told me, don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone. As much as Cesar has committed a crime against the kingdom, I have no obligation to denounce such a thing just because I know about it.

In any case, he must be careful. Sovereign Adams was close to the king, so even some Paragons from the outside sects may come to investigate his death. If that happens, it’s only a matter of time before Cesar’s actions are discovered.”

“Is that so? Then that’s worrying.” Vicente commented as he swallowed his saliva.

“Yes, I’m not joking. But Cesar must have some time to prepare or flee. As much as the king has enough influence to ask the sects for help, it would take time to get a Paragon. Most likely, only the Sovereigns will get involved in the short term.” Newton said, aware of the royal family’s relations with outside powers and the difficulty of getting Paragons to move.

“Anyway, there are evils that come to good. Now that you’re in Saltstar City taking care of Nina’s future and staying out of trouble will be easier. As for Cesar, he’s strong enough to grow up anywhere. And in a way, there was no reason for him to stay in Millfall anymore.” Newton commented, trying to show Vicente the positive side of things.

“Yes, I think that’s the case… Professor, I have an unrelated question.” Vicente said.

“What is it?”

“I would like to gather information about a group called the Bone Mountains. I know the basics about them, but I’d like more in-depth information. Do you know where I can get that?”

“Bone Mountains?” Newton knew the name, although he didn’t know any profound details about the sect. “It’s a sect of the Chutha Dynasty. You should look into The Ruby Devils if you want information about them. This local mercenary group has detailed information about external forces relevant to the kingdom.”

“The Ruby Devils? Are they going to sell me that kind of information now that they’re in trouble?” Vicente asked.

“Of course. That is an easy way for them to raise funds. But it won’t be cheap, so be prepared to lose a few hundred gold coins.” Newton advised. .

“Hmm, that’s good,” Vicente said as he looked at the ground, thinking he was close to his revenge.

‘I will stabilize my situation locally and take a trip to the Chutha Dynasty. I’ll take down the Bone Mountains first!’ He clenched his fists with determination.

And so their conversation ended just before Nina and Eve finished their tour.

Soon after, they said their goodbyes and returned home to have dinner and rest after this long day.
