Chapter 141 Unexpected Alliance?
Weapons like the ones Vicente and his group used didn't exist in the Polaris Realm like the items this young earthling used. However, some items were similar to them in terms of usefulness.
Shelby knew this, and because she knew the difference between Vicente's items, which were destructive even in the hands of weak men, she felt that he could go far with help and a little luck.
Vicente's magic form is quite powerful, and he still had Rory on his side, a? young man with green talent who could quickly become an Acolyte.
Shelby knew quite a bit about this group from the research she had done before meeting Vicente and had chosen this young man to develop her plans.
He seemed to have the audacity to do the things she wanted, which was why she was with him and had helped him with Casey.
"Mr. Fuller, you lost your family because of these arrogant individuals who don't mind riding roughshod over others and using the weaker ones as they please. The nobles are no different from the Sovereigns who caused your mother's death. They act the same way, but they do it much more often.
Join me, and we'll rebel against the order of things in Millfall!"
Vicente listened silently and made another move on the chessboard, understanding this woman's motives.
She might want to choose her own fate and take revenge on some of her enemies. It was understandable. Not everyone needed to lose their parents to crave blood and mayhem.
In possession of relevant information and in contact with a man like him, Shelby could really do whatever she wanted and bring a storm to this city with ease.
Vicente then said. "I can help you. If, and only if, you make a Magical Agreement with me. I don't want to risk you telling the truth about me out there." He looked at the redhead beside Shelby.
"Of course. If you talk about my goals out there, even my father would be ready to chop my head off." Shelby said to Vicente.
He then asked her. "What about your siblings? Don't you love your family, Miss Staples?"
"I do. And I care for my younger siblings." She sighed. "But the life of a nobleman or a member of royalty differs from that of an ordinary person, Mr. Fuller. From a young age, we are taught things that make it difficult for such feelings to arise or develop.
My siblings would be willing to sell me as a breeding mare if they could profit from it.
I wish I could love them more, but I have to love myself first."
Vicente loved his family and was willing to sacrifice himself for Nina and even Lauren, even though he didn't know where she was or what she was doing.
But he wasn't a limited person, incapable of understanding the differences he had with other people. He fully understood that not every father loved his children, and not every sibling would be willing to do anything for their siblings.
"All right. So what do we do now? You must have plans for this, right? I wasn't planning on bringing chaos to Millfall until now." Vicente changed his tone, ready to move on.
"I do, but first, let's talk about you. What has Cesar been up to lately?" She smiled at him and finished the game, beating him.
Vicente knew he had to train harder to beat this woman, but he didn't mind. "He's hiding, of course. It's hard for someone like him to go out on the streets with such a high price on his head... But soon, he'll show himself again."
"Oh? Are his plans to change the current situation working?" She asked him.
"Yes. You'll soon see their effects. Things will happen before his latest deal with the Scarlet Syndicate expires."
"Good. Don't interfere with what you've already planned." She said, aware that she couldn't act with Vicente to create chaos for her targets right now.
"My plans depend on him overcoming the problem with Defiant Tyranny. So, I don't intend to act on them for now. But if he needs any assistance, I'm at his disposal." She said before taking a sheet of paper and a pen from a spatial storage item.
"Maybe his plans will hurt the Staples family a little," Vice said, looking seriously into the orange-haired beauty's eyes.
She paused momentarily and looked at the paper in front of her but didn't bother. Just don't be too aggressive. I need my influence to get my plans off the ground."
"Don't worry." Vicente smiled before agreeing with Nina's teacher on how their relationship would work.
After they both signed the Magical Agreement, Vicente asked some questions about what Shelby knew about his family and things that could help him solve his current problems.
Once that was settled, he got up to leave and said. "I intend to settle my affairs with Defiant Tyranny and leave Millfall for some time soon after."
"Leave? Why?"
"I will be looking for Magic Pentagrams compatible with me and my staff." He answered Shelby while he was already walking beside her to the exit of this residence.
"Then I'll wait for your return. You'd better have your second pentagram when we start our plans." She didn't find that strange and readily agreed that he would have to do that.
When they arrived outside the mansion, a man watching from a distance frowned when he saw an unaccompanied man standing beside Shelby.
'Who is this one?' He wondered, this being the first time he had seen Shelby with Vicente.
"The young master won't like this at all." Another person commented to the person keeping an eye on Vice and Shelby.
"We should tell him. The young master hates it when men approach Miss Staples."
With that, one of the two left to dispatch the information to Shelby's fiancé while the other kept an eye on the orange-haired woman's movements.
As Marcus Symons' fiancée, to say that she was a possession of the Symons family was no exaggeration! They had to keep an eye on her and make sure she didn't tarnish their noble name!
'I'll investigate this boy later.' The man thought about what he would do when his companion returned. 'But I hope he's not another fool trying to get close to the young lady!'
Meanwhile, Vicente had no idea what he had gotten himself into. As soon as he said goodbye to Shelby, he returned to his estate in the town center.
