Chapter 513 First Business in Dryhaven?
?"Where do we go first?" Nova asked as soon as she and Vicente entered her hometown.
They hadn't had any trouble getting into this city, unlike what had happened until recently after their escape from Long Bay Correctional Facility.
News of Snow Claw's death had already spread throughout the kingdom after The Ruby Devils had publicly displayed the head of their enemy to show their strength in the local underworld.
In addition, the last escapee from the maximum-security wing had been captured outside of Scott Province, leaving Sophia and Oscar as the only loose individuals of concern.
Nico had also escaped from the provincial prison. Still, he was only an Acolyte, not so dangerous that cities all over the territory would act to prevent his possible entry or exit from anywhere.
Since there was also evidence that Cesar Mazzanti was responsible for the escape and that he had died along with nearly all of his party, forces from all over the kingdom considered the case closed.
If any of those involved in this incident were on the loose, they would most likely never be caught, so there was no point in continuing to make it difficult for people to get in and out of the cities.
Besides, the situation in the cities around Scott Province had recently returned to normal, making it much easier for Vicente and Nova to enter Dryhaven.
Finally, Vicente answered his woman's question. "I don't know. What would you like to do first?"
"We could go see your mother's family first." She suggested. "You said you only wanted to notify your grandparents, so since we'll be staying longer with my family, let's leave that for later."
"All right." He took something out of his spatial ring and gave it to Nova. "Do you know how to get here?"
Nova knew Dryhaven like the back of her hand. When she saw the map Vicente had gotten with the location of Hana Hogan's residence, she knew where to take her man.
"Follow me."
So, the two of them walked from the city entrance to a nice neighborhood in the south.
After Vicente's words rang out, the woman's expression froze as she stared at the young man as if she had been electrocuted.
"Kate's son?" She asked after a moment, already feeling her heart beat faster. 'It can't be... That girl already has such a big son?'
This woman had worked for Hana Hogan for a long time. She had done all kinds of jobs for the woman, including breastfeeding Kate in Hana's absence.
Seeing Kate's son in front of her, she couldn't help but be shocked at how big he already was.
It must be said that Kate was very young when she gave birth to Lauren!
Normally, magicians like her and Andrew took a long time to have children since it wasn't so easy to get pregnant in this world when you had mana in your body.
But Andrew and Kate had been blessed with three children before their deaths, having produced so many offspring in less than 50 years of life!
The last time this woman had seen Kate before Vicente and Nova was 23 years ago when Kate and Andrew had started their journey as a couple.
Vicente didn't know about this person's history with his mother and said. "Yes, I am. I'd like to see Hana Hogan. I have a very important matter to discuss with her. It concerns my mother."
The woman finally left her state of astonishment and opened the door for Vicente and Nova, making room for both of them. "Of course! Of course! I'll take you to Mrs. Hogan. Please come with me."
The two followed the woman as she smiled and talked about Kate.
"Young man, I didn't expect to meet Kate's son so soon. Did you know that I breastfed your mother?"
"Did you?" Vicente made a strange face while Nova smiled.
"Yes, if she hadn't left with that young man, I probably would have taken care of you too." The level 5 woman said. "Anyway, who is this young woman with you? Is she your girlfriend?"
"She is my girlfriend. Her name is Nova Bain."
"Oh?" The woman looked at Nova. "From House Bain? The boating and fishing family from Dryhaven?"
