Chapter 46: Arriving at Millfall

Time passed, and finally, Vicente and Rory left Martell Village.

For the next few days, they would travel in a carriage alongside four men from their group. Among them, three were Junior Apprentices, young men in their first years since their Magical Awakening.

Like many Martell Village residents, low-talented people would need to strive their entire lives to reach the Acolyte stage.

Only the village\'s slightly more talented could pass this first stage in their youth.

Precisely because of this, even though they had passed their Awakenings a few years ago, these young subordinates of Vicente still struggled to transcend the first magic level.

Meanwhile, next to them was an older man, the only one of Andrew\'s group that Vice had brought into his family so far.

This tall, strong man with tanned skin and an aggressive appearance, a typical field worker, was a Senior Apprentice not far from becoming an Acolyte.

One way or another, they were all properly armed, with enough ammunition to attack a headquarters.

Vicente had not decided to take them on this trip to protect himself from high-level threats, such as the one that had victimized his family.

No weapon would make a difference against such high-level opponents!

What motivated him was the everyday dangers of the roads, such as petty theft, encounters with wild animals, and so on.

All beings in Polaris Realm had the chance to awaken their magical powers and become stronger. This was true for humans but also for animals, plants, minerals, etc.

Everything was possible in this world!

Magical beings existed in heaps, and one had to be careful when traveling on roads, even in weak places like the vicinity of Martell Village.

But Vicente\'s bad luck would not catch up with him and his group this time, and for the next few hours, they would have relative peace of mind on their journey to Millfall.

...

The trip between Millfall and Martell Village was not a long one.

The distance between these places was tens of kilometers, so traveling by carriage took Vicente\'s group only half a day to reach this city of just over 50,000 inhabitants.

It was neither Rory\'s nor Vicente\'s first time there. Seeing this place again, they both wasted no time observing the buildings and the local movement.

The difference between Millfall and Martell Village was simply in scale.

No buildings in this town were particularly eye-catching apart from the Awakening Temple. All the rest of the city was much like the village of these two but with more streets and properties.

The movement in the center of the city was quite distinct from the movement in the center of the village, but only there were things like that.

In any other neighborhood, one could experience living in a place with almost the same tranquility as the Martell Village.

The big difference was that if one needed some slightly more qualified service, one would only have to walk a few blocks in this town. In Martell Village, one would have to travel the roads of Scott Province.

Vice watched the people walking in the streets and observed an area further out of town where there were several vacant lots and abandoned houses.

\'Should I buy or build a house?\' He asked himself.

There were advantages and disadvantages to each option. On the one hand, he could get a property more quickly and spend less by buying a derelict site. But on the other, he could build something his way and build what he would actually use.

But before deciding, he needed to check a few things locally.

"Let\'s leave to talk to the person your mother mentioned after we have settled some matters locally," Vicente said to Rory.

"Wouldn\'t it be better to already start with what information we can get from this contact?" Rory asked as he looked into Vicente\'s eyes.

Vicente shook his head negatively. "Let\'s not get involved with anyone for now. All I want is a place to bring the family from the village here.

This place will not be used for our purposes. It will be the house where Nina and I will live."

"Oh?"

"We will choose our location in a second moment after we talk to him. We will buy a property located near our objectives locally."

Rory frowned his eyebrows. "You want to be close to our future enemies?"

"Hmm, we don\'t trust them, so nothing better than to watch them closely. It will be easier, despite the danger." Vice nodded.

"What else will we do before we talk to Aaron?"

"We\'ll settle some business. After we finish taking the suppliers from our rivals in Martell Village, we need to secure some contracts but also seek information." Vicente became more serious. "We will awaken our magical powers in a short time. We have to prepare for that and start planning our next actions.

Unfortunately, our contracts will not give us the profits we need to produce better and more numerous weapons. We need alternative sources of income!"

Rory immediately understood what Vicente\'s interest was!

"Who are we going to rob?" He asked in a lower tone.

Vicente smiled and muttered. "Someone the town despises. Someone who is dirty and has obtained riches they shouldn\'t have, who won\'t receive support in their moment of weakness."

They didn\'t have a name yet, but they were sure there were people like that in the city.

Unlike the village, in Millfall, there were nobles, several families of Barons, and even a Viscount.

Vicente believed the local nobles here were as corrupt, if not more corrupt, than those in Middle-Age Europe.

If this was the case, one of these nobles had to have a dirty record.

This was the person Vicente planned to act against!

Rory had been training in assault techniques, breath control, and weapon handling for several months, and he couldn\'t help but look forward to finally putting some of his skills into practice.

"I\'m looking forward to it."

Vicente smiled at his friend and said. "We\'ll look into it and create a plan. We\'ll reevaluate what we decide after our Awakening."

"That\'s good."

When the two agreed on what to do, their carriage stopped in front of an inn near the center of town.

The men from Vice\'s group, all dressed in black suits with hats on their heads, opened the carriage doors and followed alongside the two.

Each of them watched their surroundings carefully, using the security technique that Vice had taught them to keep alert in unfamiliar places.

They made their way to the reception desk of the inn and soon got their rooms.

Vicente had no coins to waste, so they got a standard place where they could rest without unnecessary luxuries.

It was still morning when they settled into this inn, so after 2 hours of rest from their journey, they headed for lunch and business.
