Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 743 The Birth of the Order’s Sentinels

?The moment the group of 5 Sovereigns and 3 Paragons arrived in the city, the local leaders, Sky Sovereigns, looked at these people with hope in their eyes. One paragon was a beast from the Dark Path, but given the marks on the creature’s body, it was a tame being and not one of the society’s enemy.”,

Lauren was tied up, but even if she was the group’s hostage, everyone there would like to see her in action to protect humanity from monsters and vampires.

“Seniors, welcome to Dresbert!”

The group of seven middle-aged men raised their voices simultaneously, smiles on their faces, their hearts beating differently.

Lauren observed the reverence of these people and said nothing, looking at them with a little contempt.

Vicente smiled back at these locals and said. “Friends from Dresbert, my group has some plans to develop nearby. I hope we can help each other out over the next few days.”

“Of course, Senior. We’ll do our best to stay out of your way and advise you in any way we can!” The one who looked older and close to the 5th stage said loud and clear, before gesturing towards a building behind his group.

The building was shaped like a 20-meter radius cylinder, with several pillars surrounding it, while transparent glass covered the rest of its facade.

Vicente and his companions went ahead with the men they had rescued earlier, soon entering the headquarters of the Dresbert Magicians’ Society, to the meeting room of the group’s elders.

The three rescued men introduced the people from Vicente’s group to the elders, before they presented the names of the seven individuals to the newly arrived group.

Vicente then asked. “Are you the strongest in society? What are the numbers in your group?”

The leader of the Dresbert Magicians’ Society answered without reservation. “Yes, unfortunately, our leaders have fallen in battles in the north of the state, or have been hunted down by powerful enemies. What remains from the last few months of calamity are 17 Sky Sovereigns, 74 Earth Sovereigns and just over 2,000 Mages.

Only Sovereigns are useful for dealing with the monsters that threaten our cities today. But the numbers of monsters are many times greater than ours.”

“Sigh! In the current context, it’s almost impossible for us to do anything other than try to defend our position in the city.” Another man said in a melancholy tone.

Everyone there had lost friends, close colleagues, people they admired, or even family members in the calamity that began with The Purification. They weren’t just pessimistic about the future. Their losses deeply embittered each of them.

The fact that they had no pleasant prospect of revenge only made everything worse!

“So that’s the case…” Vicente sighed as he closed his eyes, his colleagues silent, imagining that Seidel Kingdom’s situation, even if it wasn’t as bad as this place’s, certainly wasn’t good.

He got straight to the point by speaking firmly and powerfully. “Well, I have no interest in forcing anyone to do anything for me. A few months ago, I left my city to hunt pentagrams with my friends, with the aim of returning and continuing my previous activities in the south of the continent.

But now that will be impossible. If I want to even remotely improve my chances of achieving anything close to what I previously planned to do, I can’t allow the worst to reach the south. I have to make sure that the place we’re in can stop most of the monsters heading south.

So I’m sorry to do this, but from now on you are all under my command and you will do as I say.”

The 10 men in that meeting room, sitting or standing around the table where Vicente had positioned himself in the dominant position, just listened to him, without questioning him or objecting.

“Please, Senior Fuller, take us to the end of the darkness.” The strongest of these men put himself at Vicente’s disposal, agreeing to subordinate himself with no difficulty.

But how could they refuse? Vicente was a young Paragon, and his group had others of the same stage as him. These people hadn’t seen 5th stage cultivators for months. Anyone who showed up in their city now would gain control of the area!

One by one, all 10 elders of the Dresbert Magicians’ Society stood up, making gestures of greeting, while saying they were at Vicente’s complete disposal.

Vicente then said. “Very well. You are quick to make your decision. Perhaps your city will endure with such decisive men.

My first order is to change the name of your society. From now on, you will be called the Sentinels of the Order. You will report directly to the ranks of the Cataclysm Order in the future.”

“Cataclysm Order?” one of the old men asked doubtfully, remembering this old Dark Path organization.

Vicente explained to these men so that they could better understand his plans. “My plan is to bring back the Cataclysm Order. I will use its old outposts to help communities around the south of the continent awaken their magical powers. I will open a post in the territory of the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn and another in Trevora Kingdom.

Additionally, I will have assignments in Chutha Dynasty, the Kenyth Empire, Seidel Kingdom, and Andoria Kingdom.

I will activate the Awakening Altars in each of these locations daily from the moment I finish re-establishing the conditions of these altars and spreading information about them to the communities nearby.”

“Oh?”

The men and the only woman in that group of 10 understood Vicente’s aim. Another crisis they were facing was precisely the lack of methods for awakening the powers of young people.

There were only two cities in the entire territory of the ancient Kingdom of Eternal Dawn that were currently performing magical awakenings. But traveling between the cities in the territory had become too dangerous for anyone, which was effectively making things very difficult for cities like Dresbert!

A glimmer of hope appeared in these people’s eyes as they understood Vicente’s plans much more thoroughly through his brief explanation.

Even if the altars he was going to activate were nowhere near them, this alone would help many people, enabling new magicians to awaken their powers and, more importantly, empowering the group behind these awakenings!
