Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 965 Sudden Change of Behavior



Chapter 965  Sudden Change of Behavior

An hour later, the door to the previous room opened and Theo left the training ground alongside the bald monk.

He walked straight up to Vicente, the look on his face shining with satisfaction. His appearance had improved from the tired look of earlier, while his vigor was at its peak again.

"Disciple Vicente Fuller, thank you for your service." He thanked Vicente by showing one of his hands, speaking in a totally different tone to the one he had greeted Vice with earlier.

Vicente stood up from where he had been sitting and couldn't help but look at Theo curiously. Now this guy with the red and white hair didn't seem as difficult and arrogant as he had earlier.

'What's going on here? Why is he talking like that?' Vicente wondered as he shook one of Theo's hands, doubting the guy's sincerity.

"I just did what was agreed. I'm glad I could help," Vicente said as he looked at Theo and then at the bald man.

The monk smiled at Vicente, imagining the confusion of the young newcomer to the sect. "Disciple Vicente, thank you for your services. Here is proof that you have completed the mission." The man handed Vice a coat of arms.

Sect missions could only be completed with proof of completion. In this case, the disciple would need the mission approval item, something the contractor would give them on completion of the mission.

Vicente took the item that he could use to collect his prize, but before he left, there was still more for him to talk to these people about.

"By the way, Disciple Vicente, do you have some time to talk to me?" Theo asked as he pointed to a well-wooded area in the building they were in.

Vicente followed Theo, with Prisiche accompanying him, while the monk stayed behind, waiting.

"What does Brother Theo want?" Vicente asked, his gaze curious.

"I heard that you recently came from a lower plane... You're still factionless, right?"

"No, I recently created a faction with an ally, {Golden Partners}." Vicente corrected what Theo knew.

"Oh? {Golden Partners}? That's a good name." Theo didn't get angry, demonstrating that his change in behavior wasn't temporary. "It's good that you've created your own faction. There are many benefits to being the leader of your own group. But that doesn't stop what I want to talk to you about."

Theo sat down on a stone bench and asked Vicente. "What do you think about your faction partnering with me?"

'Partnership?' Vicente sat down too, not knowing enough about Theo to assess how valuable and dangerous a partnership with him would be. All he knew was what Elder Collins had told him.

"What would that be like? I'm not alone, so I have to present my partner with any proposal I receive." Vicente used what he had to his advantage so that he wouldn't have to accept immediately.

Theo nodded and said, "I also have my own faction, {Tomorrow Blacksmiths}. My plan was to invite you into my group after seeing how capable you are. But since you already have your own group, we can form an alliance.

As a member of the Steel Family, I have a lot of resources at my disposal. {Tomorrow Blacksmiths} has a great product development capacity and good future prospects. But there aren't many of us, and we don't yet have warriors like you."

Theo was quite clever, although sometimes arrogant and irrational. Earlier, he was furious with Vicente for making him wait until the time limit for today's completed mission.

But now that he had advanced to the next level and mastered his spell, Theo's mood had improved 180 degrees.

Calm and comfortable, Theo couldn't ignore what he had seen in Vicente, his great potential.

"You and your faction can help us train our men so that they learn your spells more quickly and become stronger, while my group can provide resources to yours. We can also exchange information and, ultimately, I can even approach you with good targets to join your group." Theo presented what he offered and what he needed from Vicente.

Vicente scratched his chin, understanding how this young master could win and how good this deal could be for {Golden Partners}.

'It makes sense. Even if the {Tomorrow Blacksmiths} aren't great or powerful, they have a member of the Steel Family in their leadership. He can certainly help us with information.

As for resources, Larissa and I have little. Anything will be better than nothing.' He felt it was worth it, but he didn't decide right away.

"Hmm, I must say I'm tempted, Brother Theo. But as I said, I have to talk to my partner. As much as I am the faction leader, I owe her a lot, and it wouldn't be right to accept your proposal without talking to her."

Theo smiled, feeling that he would get what he wanted. "Just do it. When everything has been decided, come and see me and we'll make our partnership official." Young master Steel handed Prisiche an item that could give Vicente access to him.

Vicente stood up simultaneously as Theo, once again shaking hands with this unexpected ally.

"I hope we can grow together. Stonewall is more teeming than it looks. Let's not be swayed by our future competitors."

Vicente just nodded in agreement, before saying a quick goodbye to Theo.

He set off with Prisiche for the Registration Center, keen to get his mission award out of the way.

Halfway there, he couldn't help but seek Prisiche's opinion.

"What are your thoughts on it? I found his change in behavior a little unsettling."

Prisiche laughed as she walked alongside her master. "This is more natural than you think, master. Young talents like Theo Steel, favored by their families, are almost always difficult at first.

But most of them are intelligent enough to change their attitudes after meeting people who mean something to them.

However, they are just as dangerous. When they realize that someone is no longer necessary to them, they don't hesitate to discard them."

"Hmm, I can imagine... Theo could be a good ally, but if he can get along better without me, he won't hesitate to take a different course or even attack me." Vicente had already imagined something like this, even though he hadn't experienced much of it in Polaris Realm.

In Polaris Realm, he had surrounded himself with companions he could trust or control and had, from the start of his journey, dealt with many enemies in an environment where there wasn't much room to deal with people like Theo.

But he knew what he needed to do.

"Anyway, let's get on with our other plans. I'm going to make an alliance with Theo and prepare myself in case things don't go the way we planned."
