Taking the Mafia to the Magic World-Novel

Chapter 153 The Attacks Begin?

Arriving at his second mansion in Millfall, where his men were working, Vicente attracted the attention of the observers in the area and his own men.

"Boss? What are you doing here? I thought you weren't coming back until the group was better prepared!" Asked one of the level 1 Acolytes standing by in the building, his heart beating faster at Vice's early return.

He and everyone else there knew that the moment Vicente reappeared in Millfall, assassins and the royal army itself would appear on the outskirts to deal with him.

From that moment on, it would be kill or be killed!

Still unprepared for this threat, the group couldn't help but be nervous about this plan change.

Vicente knew and quickly explained to his men. "I had no choice. One of the assassins just acted against me."

Without knowing if there were more people with that man or even if others weren't watching that individual, Vice couldn't take any chances. If he returned home or continued with his identity as Vicente Fuller, he could risk endangering his sister.

Of course, there was the possibility that someone already knew about him and was keeping an eye on Nina. But in Vicente's mind, if that happened, he would still have to come to this place because trying to get close to her would only lead to more danger for Nina.

Whether he liked it or not, the best course of action was to return to his identity as Cesar and pray that no one would act against Nina.

His hands were tied!

On the other hand, by doing so, he could protect his identity from his enemies if only that dead enemy had found out about him.

As long as he held out for two days like Cesar, Casey would complete his mission in Martell Village, and the chances of anyone discovering anything compromising about him would decrease significantly.

"So what do we do now, boss?" One of the men asked in a cold sweat.

Vicente was direct. "Bring your weapons. I can't upgrade them to my limit for lack of materials, but I'll be able to increase their efficiency a bit.

Get ready. We're going to have big problems in the next few hours. Assassins will surely attack this place. Even if I go out to fend off some enemies, you'll still have to deal with several groups."

Gulp!

"How are our forces?" Vice asked since he hadn't been updated for about three days.

"There are no more Junior Apprentices in our group. Twenty of our men are currently Intermediate Apprentices, and twenty-eight are Senior Apprentices. As for Acolytes, we have eleven of them, not counting the four mercenary Generals." A short, bald, middle-aged man said to Vicente.

While having the protection of the Scarlet Syndicate to operate in this eastern area of Millfall, Vicente's group had made profits and used those resources to help his men raise their levels.

Even some of Vicente's profits from his partnership in Martell Village had contributed to this, as had the coins from the Peters family.

Even though they were under pressure from various groups, they were growing and improving their strength with their increasing resources!

"Good. This will help us withstand enemy attacks." Vicente commented as he walked to the training area of this estate, where he wanted to upgrade some of his group's items.

"Alert the staff outside the family headquarters. We're in an emergency. Those hiding their identities should stay alert and stay away from here for now. We don't want to jeopardize our operations and plans."

One of the men following him heard this and rushed off to relay these orders to Rory and the guards working on the properties in the group's territory.

Meanwhile, Vicente took the magic stone at his group's disposal to use in combination with the bracelet Benson had recently given him.

'Let's see how well I can work with you two together...' He thought before picking up the first of his men's weapons and starting to upgrade them.

For the next minutes, Vicente would upgrade more than 20 of his men's weapons without taking a break, using the advantage of having two support items at his side to work on his group's artifacts.

While he did this, his group would not face any immediate problems. As much as they were being watched when Vicente returned to his post, his enemies needed time to act against him.

Some had no one watching this place, thinking Cesar wouldn't risk coming to this building. Others were simply scattered around Millfall.

Even the army couldn't move that fast.

Once he had finished upgrading his weapons, Vicente didn't want to miss the chance to escape, knowing that if he stayed, he would be surrounded by enemies and eventually be killed by the army.

After preparing his men, he moved to the forest near the city.

...

While Vice was on the move, his enemies had already noticed his reappearance.

In order to attract the attention of his enemies and to remove the danger of Nina, as well as the connection between Cesar and Vicente Fuller, he acted openly by returning to his headquarters.

He had successfully lured several groups to the headquarters of his organization.

At that moment, while the troops were moving in and Vicente's men were standing by, one of the assassins already in the area rushed into the building.

With the information that the man worth 200 gold coins was there, this first individual didn't hesitate to advance against the Fuller family's post.

'Where are you?' He asked himself with a worried look on his face, using the shadows of the area to reach one of the side walls of the building where he could see an open window.

Scaling the wall towards the top of the building, the level 2 Acolyte soon arrived at the window, which seemed unguarded, but he knew that one of Cesar's men was standing by.

'I'll take you down and take care of that brat Cesar quickly.' The assassin thought as he jumped into the building.

Just then, a shot rang out from that spot, and a body fell to the ground.

'Idiot!' A Senior Apprentice from Vicente's group, standing on one side of the window with his revolver pointed at the opening, thought to himself as he saw his enemy dead.

...

On the other side of Vicente's building, another assassin had just died under one of the many traps around the place.
