Chapter 152 Assassin: Time for Cesar to Come Back!?

When Vicente left the Association building at the end of the day, he was not physically tired, but mentally.

The stronger he became, the more he could process new information and understand the rules of how things worked in this world. After a day of studying and some training at the Association's headquarters, he was tired as he left that place at dusk on his way home.

However, with his mana at its best and his stats getting higher and higher, Vicente noticed something as he walked back to his house for his daily dinner with Nina and Eve.

His eyes moved to the side, but he didn't change his expression or his walking motion towards his house.

However, Vice clearly felt someone following him!

After training as a blacksmith to extract metals from ores, he refined many of his special skills. Now, Vicente could more easily sense and control the metals in the bodies of those around him.

He had developed this to the point where he could passively sense the presence of people around him through the sensation of the metals in their bodies, which had unique markings for each person.

When he noticed one of these markings following him, Vicente felt an urgency he had never felt before.

'Has someone discovered me? How?' He asked himself as he realized this person following him was neither one of his men nor his ally.

Sensing the magic level of such a person, a level 3 Acolyte, Vicente didn't want to take any chances.

Maybe there were more people connected to this person, so it wouldn't be good for him to take this individual to his residence, where Nina was.

'Damn it!' He changed his destination and started to take that man to the east side of the city, where his territory was.

But while Vicente was doing this, he was moving quietly along the city's sidewalks as if he were casually returning home after a long day's work.

The man chasing him realized that this young man wasn't going to his usual place and was surprised. 'Is he going to reveal himself? Is he really Cesar?' This person asked himself, still unsure if his hunch was true or just a false feeling.

Considering the possibilities created by some people's special magical abilities, this man didn't need any clues or evidence to understand what the assassins and local soldiers were after.

The abilities that made such a thing possible were rare, and few had the chance to even know about people with such abilities.

Considering how terrible some abilities were, most of their users kept their secrets under lock and key, killing anyone who found out.

This man chasing Vice had one of those abilities, and through it, he discovered a subtle connection between Vicente Fuller and Cesar Mazzanti.

He had realized it this morning when he had accidentally passed Vicente and begun observing the young man. Since he already knew that Vice lived in the central part of Millfall, he couldn't help but be surprised by the young man's current movements.

Fearing that Vicente would approach Cesar's headquarters and other assassins would realize who he was, the man decided to act.

Noticing that Vicente was near an area with little traffic, he used his assassination technique, which had already killed more than 20 targets.

Using his affinity with the Wind element, he moved and appeared next to Vicente as if he were a ghost.

In his right hand, he held a silver-bladed dagger that moved quickly to young Fuller's neck.

'Die!' He thought, knowing that Vice was weaker than him and would hardly have the speed to deflect this attack to a deadly point.

At that moment, Vicente finally saw who was attacking him and felt his heart beat faster.

But he felt no fear because he was already prepared for such a surprise attack.

'You are fast. If I hadn't prepared, I'd be dead!' Vice thought to himself as he looked away, unable to dodge this enemy's swift attack but with no fear in his heart.

The emotion he felt at that moment was not the one that would come before death but the one that would come from a near-death situation when the feeling of being alive was heightened a few degrees.

Nothing made you feel more alive than the threat of death!

But Vicente was confident, and when he saw the metal blade approaching, his surprise attack developed without the man realizing it.

At that decisive moment, a glow appeared above both of them as a bolt of lightning cut its irregular path to the tip of the dagger in the assassin's hands.

Realizing what was happening, the man could only make an ugly face a moment before he was hit.

"Aaaaaaagh!" He screamed as he was electrocuted by something incapable of killing him but quite painful.

Vicente looked directly into the enemy's eyes before forming a silver mask on his face and muttering. "Bang!"

A split second later, a loud bang sounded from a distance before the sound of a bullet cutting through the air came in the man's direction.

Helpless, the assassin could barely see the bullet approaching his head from behind.

While Vicente was still making the bang sound, a hole appeared in the man's head as his body fell into the darkness of death.

Vicente quickly activated his skill and grabbed the man's dagger before disappearing, knowing he was taking significant risks by staying in the area. n/(0velBIn

As he moved, he thanked his sniper, who was positioned in the area, one of the places he had men ready and had deliberately brought this assassin to.

Vicente had managed to make a few 1st-grade guns with the items he had before. He didn't have enough to upgrade the group's more than 50 weapons, but he had enough to arm his snipers in Millfall.

The man on the roof of one of the buildings protected by their group saw Vice's signal and smiled, feeling good about firing such a powerful weapon.

But he knew that Cesar's reappearance in the city would cause trouble for all of them, and as Vicente soon became serious, he worried about the group's next moves.

Outside of their plans, they would now have to deal with this incident that could jeopardize everything they had done so far!
