“Who did you see? Hey! Answer me!” The guard on the other side of the door asked the man on Vicente’s back, slapping him across the face as he questioned.
But Vicente’s subordinate seemed shocked, extremely weakened by his leader’s blow earlier.
Vicente could have tried to leave this place the same way he came in. But he thought it would be very suspicious for one of his men to ask to go to the bathroom twice while coming to this place and staying only five minutes.
Even if it didn’t cause him any immediate problems, he feared that once his bombs were detonated, it would make his Fuller family a possible suspect in today’s attack.
To avoid this and to avoid implicating Nina in any way, Vicente decided to detonate his bombs while his group was still in the area.
Only then would they distance themselves from any possible connection to this attack after the incident was over.
Not only that but to prevent the Baron’s family from distrusting his men, Vicente made it a point to order one of his men to save the Baron’s life and “die” in a heroic act.
Vicente was aware that he couldn’t wipe out this family that night. His goal was not to do so but only to destroy the possibility that this house would one day rise up against him because of what he had done to the Baron’s third son.
Vincent hadn’t fled through another part of the estate because not only were the exterior walls and doors and windows of the estate of a high standard, but it would also attract a lot of trouble.
This underground route was the safest way for him to escape.
No matter how problematic it might be, if he managed to leave this place alive, it would be impossible for him to be connected to this event!
That’s why he stood his ground before that General, using words instead of his powers. “Senior, he’s seriously injured. I’d like to take him to a doctor immediately. If he dies with the identity of our enemies in his head, I’m afraid we won’t be able to do anything to seek justice!”
Upon hearing this, the level 7 General looked at the dusty, bloodied face of the young man in front of him.
“Tsk! Damn it! Go quickly!” He said.
Vicente looked at Lana and said. “Can you help me? I’m hurt, and I can’t see straight.”
“Go with him, Lana.” The General said before taking over Lana’s role of identifying the people on the other side of the door to allow them to enter this place.
Lana promptly did as she was told and went ahead of Vicente and his man, quickly disappearing from the previous area.
“Did you get it?” She asked, whispering to him.
“Yes. You’ll get your share of the deal.” Vicente said, unable to go against the agreement Rory had signed with this woman.
“Good! I’ll leave this town with your men. I want you to leave me in Saltstar City.” Lana smiled and planned her future after this day.
She hadn’t planned to stay in Saltstar City. But she could go anywhere once she got there with the resources from this robbery.
Vicente’s group couldn’t act against her for a certain period because of the agreement they had signed with her, but even so, she wouldn’t stay in this province. When she reached the largest city in the province, she intended to buy a ticket out of the kingdom and never return to this place.
Full of expectations for the future, she smiled when she heard that everything had worked out and guided Vicente through the part of the local sewer he didn’t know how to move.
Only noble families and the army had a map of the local sewers.
Vicente’s group had only been able to build their tunnel to a part of the sewer on the advice of Lena, who had recently accessed the map of the place.
After two minutes of running around the place, she finally arrived at the spot where she had instructed Rory and his group to dig an alternate tunnel.
There, Vicente quickly found a wall that appeared to be hollow, where he quickly used a spell based on the earth element to open the way to the beginning of the tunnel, 10 centimeters behind that wall.
Seeing the hole leading to an abandoned property in Millfall appear before her, Lana sighed and went in with Vicente. 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍．𝒄𝙤𝙢
While she led the way, Vicente used his powers to close the hole his men had made.
‘Time to go home!’ He sighed as he finally reached the property where his men had been working for the past few weeks.
Once there, he quickly gave Lena some jewels and coins, the equivalent of what had been promised.
With the equivalent of more than 1,500 gold coins in her possession, Lena thanked Vicente and asked him to say goodbye to Rory for her before following the Fuller family men who were waiting for her there in a carriage.
Watching her go, Vicente didn’t mind that she was a witness to what he had done. Unlike on Earth, contracts were extremely difficult to break in this magic world.
If you promised not to talk about certain things, you wouldn’t do it, or the heavens could severely punish you.
Lena could tell the truth about that day if she became much stronger than Rory and Vicente, but that was unlikely to happen.
Confident that he wouldn’t have any problems with her, Vicente quickly put on his mask and walked through the darkness of the night shadows back to the Mazzanti family headquarters.
It was time for him to count the night’s gains!
But as he made his way back to that place, he drank a restorative potion, cleaned himself of the traces of what he had done, and thought of the guests who should be waiting for him.
‘It’s time to guide the men of the Scarlet Syndicate…’ He thought, remembering that these people should be waiting for him at his estate.
Although he didn’t like handing over one of his weapon models to these people, he could at least use it as an alibi.
Even if he hadn’t been on his property at the time of the attack on the Irwin estate, for people of this city, it would have been impossible for him to act against the Irwin family and be on his property in less than 10 minutes to teach the Scarlet Syndicate men a thing or two.
With that in mind, Vicente ignored the nighttime flames stirring up Millfall, worrying only about the men he had ordered to direct an attack on the Irwin estate.
But as long as they followed his plans, once Lena’s carriage caught up with them outside Millfall, they could flee the area and hide until things calmed down.
Just like that, the greatest robbery of a noble family in Millfall ended!
