Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

"Eve..." Vicente hugged the beautiful, full-breasted blonde, feeling the two twins pressed against his stomach.

"You've been gone a lot longer than we expected. Why did you change your plans?" She asked him, feeling relieved about his situation.

"I had the opportunity to settle my vendetta in one fell swoop. So, I took advantage of the fact that I was already close to my enemies in the Kenyth Empire and finished my revenge in one trip. That way, I could return and have a more peaceful and lasting time here." He said as he sat down at the kitchen island in his house.

Rory sat there with him and Eve, interested in what Vicente had to tell them but also with a lot on his mind that he needed to clear up with him.

"I'm glad everything worked out. You don't know how nervous we were before Layla and Casey got back." Eve commented as she looked into Vice's eyes as if to tell him not to do that anymore.

He smiled at her and asked. "Where are they? I was worried about them coming back alone. There was a vampire after us."

"We know that," Rory commented.

Eve said. "Casey is in Millfall. After he arrived here with that woman, he said he had to take care of some things there before he could come back to work with us. As for Layla, she's with Jasmine at the local Awakening Temple."

"Hmm, good."

"What about that vampire, Vicente? Any progress with him?" Rory asked worriedly.

He and Eve could sense the level of the beast that had arrived on this property with Vicente and was sitting on one of his shoulders. But talking about the vampire was so much more important to them that they couldn't be bothered with this Sovereign creature.

Vicente sighed and said. "I managed to lose him. But it's almost certain that he'll find Layla and Casey's tracks here. So we have to prepare ourselves. He could be here at any moment from the next month."

Eve and Rory became a few degrees more serious, unable to say a word about it, as they were extremely worried about where this might lead.

The family had become much stronger with all the resources Vicente had left them and the time he had been away. But they were still far from being able to face a vampire. At least, that was the truth until the night before.

Vicente saw their worries and tried to show them a light at the end of the tunnel.

"Don't think I don't have plans for that. I'm currently at the peak of the first level of the 4th stage. I won't become a Sky Sovereign anytime soon, but there is no Earth Sovereign who is stronger than me.

This vampire must be a mid-level magician today. No matter how many powerful abilities he has, he won't be able to threaten me.

With your and Onyx's help, we have a real chance of killing a vampire!"

"Kill a vampire?" Eve hesitated as she repeated the words.

"That sounds bizarre, Vice," Rory commented with a sigh. "Are you sure about this?"

"We have no alternative. The damn vampire was hiding, luring Casey and us to him. After he found us, he took an interest in us and won't stop until he's dead or he's killed us." Vicente said what needed to be said. "If I didn't come to face him with the whole family, that bastard could come after you to lure me out. So this is the only way. We have to deal with him one way or another."

"I know... That's what I thought when Casey told me about the problem." Rory got up from where he was and walked through the kitchen, sensing that trouble was still following his friend.

Vicente stood up and showed them his pentagrams. "Rory and Eve, don't think we're going down anytime soon. Let's keep that in mind while we fight the vampire. But our chances of killing him are real."

When they saw the pentagram, which had once been orange and was now yellow, they were even more surprised by Vicente's evolution, realizing that it had evolved more than they had heard about from Layla and Casey.

"That..." Seeing the most spectacular pentagram configuration on this continent, Eve didn't know what to say.

Vicente still had an extra space for a new pentagram, so he could soon raise his powers even higher.

Rory asked him. "Is this related to the beast?" He pointed to the yellow pentagram and Onyx.

"Yes, where I found Onyx, I came across some possibilities." Vicente smiled as the pentagrams returned to his body. "I also brought back some artifacts for the family. Unfortunately, it was a place of Dark Path magicians, so I didn't get any resources that could make much difference for you."

"Your improvement is good enough for us," Rory commented as he sighed, feeling how far his friend had come. "That beast, uh, Onyx, will also be very useful to us. Since you didn't hide it, it will be able to protect this property and make this place even safer for Nina."

"That's my plan." Vicente smiled.

Rory changed the subject. "When are you going to hunt your next pentagram? It would be interesting if it happened before we had to deal with this vampire coming at us."

"Yeah, but I don't have enough power. I want to go after a cyan pentagram, but a beast with such a pentagram could be at the end of the 5th stage or the beginning of the 6th stage. I don't have the power to deal with something like that on my own, even if I were a Sky Sovereign.

Gulp!

Rory and Eve swallowed their saliva, for a cyan pentagram was something only Archmages had!

But Vicente wanted it while he was still a Sovereign!

"That..."

"This is going to be complicated and risky," Rory commented. "We'll probably have to travel to the central lands of the continent to find such a magical being."

"Also, I will need to become a peak Sky Sovereign. Some of our group will need to become Earth Sovereigns to travel with me, while Nina and the rest of the family must be well enough to stay away from us for at least two years." Vicente commented on the requirements for them to go after his fourth pentagram.

Going to the continent's central part would take four to six months. But there was the return trip, the time they would spend hunting there, and the problems that could delay them both on the way there and on the way back.

Thus, 2 years was the minimum time Vicente felt he would be away from his family when he went hunting.

Not only that, he also thought it would be time for him to go after Lauren by then, so it was likely that his time away from Nina would be much longer than 2 years.

"That's going to take a couple of years. Can you really wait for that?" Rory asked.
