Chapter 922 Nina's Maturity

922 Nina's Maturity

Ten minutes after Vicente's arrival in the capital, he was in the royal throne room with Nina, Killian, King Seidel, Newton, and Jasmine.

With the group gathered, Vicente got right to the point, talking first about what was most important, what might happen to him soon, and how he couldn't go to the end of the disaster with the mainland forces.

He shocked each of these people, saying about the future of Magus, as well as how close he was to achieving the magical quality of a Magus, even though he had just become Archmage.

But with the threat of Demien and how strong the vampire should be after his ascension to the Intermediate Archmage level, no one doubted Vicente had no choice but to keep trying to get stronger, despite the risks.

After a few minutes of conversation, they understood the two paths the continent faced. One, Vicente could eliminate Demien before he disappeared, and the two, he wouldn't be able to.

In the first case, the continent's forces would still have a long journey ahead of them, but their chances of survival and eventual victory over the monsters were not zero.

The second case was bad, and the chances of their long-term survival after Vicente's departure—or death—would be practically non-existent.

Either Vicente would succeed before he left for the Supreme Continent, or all of humanity would perish after his departure.

Vicente also talked about his plan to strengthen Lauren with Demien's death, which could be a relief for the human forces in the fight against the vampire Archmages that might remain after Demien's fall.

They obviously didn't consider that Demien would kill Vicente. If that happened, the scenario for the human forces would be even worse than if he left before eliminating Demien!

"We've reached such a point." King Seidel sighed as he shook his head, his eyes closed as he felt the tension of the moment.

The king said. "Let's hope it doesn't get that bad. In any case, we must focus our efforts on producing as many Archmages as possible in the coming years. Only Archmages will be able to fight against the 6th stage vampires."

"His Majesty is right," Vicente said as he looked at Jasmine and Nina. "I will try to send high-level vampire blood to our forces and help train Archmages. I'm going to set up some special resource sending points you should monitor, with groups of powerful magicians to absorb these essences as soon as I send them.

When I'm no longer here, I hope these measures will help your forces to stand on their own feet in some way. That's all I can do."

"That's more than enough," Nina said firmly, not liking how things would develop, but she was mature enough to understand that there were no alternatives.

She didn't want Vicente to leave. But given the current circumstances on the continent, there was nothing she could do to stop it. She knew how much Vicente would sacrifice to stop Demien—to continue to strengthen himself at the risk of being forced to leave the continent forever and never see Annie again—just to ensure the death of their greatest enemy.

Under the circumstances, how could she be selfish and complain about his impending departure?

She could only enjoy her brother's last moments on the continent, be grateful for his efforts and honor his decisions, fighting to make sure it was not all in vain.

'I'll do my best to make sure it's not all in vain, brother! I'll take care of the family and help the continent get through this crisis!'

Nina clenched her fists as she bitterly swallowed her tears of sadness at Vicente's impending departure.

Vicente nodded at Nina, pleased to see how mature his little sister had become.

He smiled and said in a more optimistic tone. "Let's believe our efforts will pay off. Fear of death will get us nowhere. So we should plan for victory. One day, if all goes well, we'll meet again, whether it's here in Polaris Realm or on the Supreme Continent."
