Chapter 202 After the Attack

Chapter 202 After the Attack?

Meanwhile, in the more affluent area of Millfall...

Three men ran toward the center of town as flames and the sound of explosions came from the direction of the Irwin estate.

But while several people on the outskirts of this wealthy area of Millfall watched from their doorsteps as the Irwin family estate went up in flames, the Baron of that family moved alongside Vicente's men.

"Your Grace, what shall we do? We'd like to help in some way." One of Vicente's two subordinates said, sounding like someone concerned for the financial well-being of one of his allies.

The Baron had no reservations about these men after all that had happened and after seeing these two almost die in the explosions around his estate a few moments ago. n-.o/-V-.e/(L(/b.)1/)n

So when he heard that question, he said. "I will go to the army headquarters. Why don't you go to Viscount Symons' estate? It would help me."

"That..."

"You can't?"

"To tell you the truth, Your Grace, young master Symons has a rivalry with our leader." One of the two men said. "Why don't we do the opposite of what you suggested? The two of us can alert the army while you seek help from the Viscount's family."

"Oh? Well, that works too." He said as he felt the cold night breeze cooling his sweaty body and gradually becoming less afraid of what had just happened.

Then he said. "All right, let's split up. I'll return your companion's body to your group when I can. In the meantime, I hope to see you with your leader in the future."

"Thank you. We'll be at Your Grace's disposal."

"I am the one who thanks you." Baron Irwin said, separating himself from the two.

In doing so, he soon made his way to the Symons family estate to seek help in locating and investigating those who might have been involved in this nighttime attack.

Men had attacked the outside of his house, and some had even managed to infiltrate the place. Considering that everything had just happened, if they followed them, they would have a chance to catch up with some of those bandits!

...

While Baron Irwin went to the Symons estate, the two Fuller family representatives went to the army headquarters, not as quickly as they should have, but without delay.

As allies of the Irwin family, they couldn't look suspicious!

As they walked through the darkened streets of Millfall, the two were full of worry about their companions and whether their plans had worked.

"I wonder how Kevin is?" One of the two asked about the third of them who had been responsible for being struck by one of Vicente's lightning bolts that night.

"I don't know. But the boss knows what he's doing. The boss is the smartest and most talented person I know. So Kevin will probably survive if other problems don't get to him." Said the other soldier of the Mazzanti family.

They weren't unaware of the possibility of other things going wrong with their plans besides Vicente's move. There were many enemies on that estate, and several things could go wrong before Vice and Kevin could successfully escape.

Even if Kevin survived Vice's attack, many things could kill him after that.

Aware of the difficult reality of this world, these men remained skeptical as they moved to alert the army.

"Sigh... I hope everything works out. After today, we'll probably have less problems looking for pentagrams."

"Yes, I think so too. But anyway, let's alert the local forces. Time to finish our mission!"

...

Minutes later, soldiers from the army post arrived at the Irwin family's semi-destroyed estate, surrounded the place, and began the standard protocol for such situations.

In charge of the group, Nova stood and organized her men, trying not to overthink how the town had suddenly become much more dangerous after the arrival of Cesar's group in the area.

She looked at her men and gave an order. "Do not let anyone from other forces near this place. I want to know what happened here before the curious contaminates the place.

Meanwhile, I want half of the group to follow the trail of the criminals who operated here earlier. Look for eyewitnesses and reports of people moving strangely toward the city exits. Let's get these bastards!"

"Yes, Captain!" Most of the dozen or so soldiers with her replied, moving quickly to carry out their orders.

She looked at a level 4 Acolyte and said. "Captain Olson, wait a minute."

"Captain?" The black-haired man looked at the beautiful Nova, but there was nothing but respect in his gaze for this level 5 woman.

After her last meeting with Vicente, Nova managed to advance to the next level and reached the end of the 2nd stage!

"Captain Olson, go to the Mazzanti family headquarters. I want to know what Cesar did tonight." She ordered, feeling that it would be good to question such a man.

"Cesar Mazzanti?" The man, dressed in a uniform similar to Nova's, with armor bearing the symbol of the royal family, looked at her strangely, knowing that this man was now a good citizen who had no problems with the law.

"For what reason, Captain? I'm sorry, but I don't see how Cesar has anything to do with it. I'm afraid the Commander won't like us getting close to this person." He said, thinking that maybe Nova had something personal against Cesar, even though she had gotten him out of trouble after The Rocky Gorge incident.

Nova didn't care about the man's opinion and said. "Do I have to repeat myself, Captain Olson? That's an order! I don't care if you like it!"

"Okay. I'll go see what Cesar is up to." He didn't want to argue with this woman and left without further questions.

Nova stayed behind, thinking about the man who had saved her.

'Cesar... Are you involved in this?' Her eyes narrowed as she saw some of the men from the Irwin family putting out the fire on the property alongside the soldiers in the area.

As she watched, something else was on her mind. 'Now, even Vicente was involved in a local situation, which had never happened before he arrived in this town.

Cesar, I will not forgive you if you harm the innocent members of the Fuller family!' She clenched her fists, thinking of how much this family had already suffered from being involved in local problems.

Vicente's emissaries were only there to do business. Still, now, this family would be associated with that incident, and they had even lost one of their men to those responsible for this nocturnal action!
