Chapter 923 Happiness and Sadness

After talking to Nina and the others about his current situation, Vicente wouldn't be staying in Grandis much longer. In a hurry to see his wives and daughter again, he left the capital less than an hour after arriving in the area.

Vicente planned to build the 6th stage armor in Metal City, near his wives and daughter. Since he needed some high-quality materials to make such armor, which didn't exist in this part of the continent, he could develop the robotic armor anywhere, as his major materials were already in his spatial ring.

Because of the rarity of the materials needed to build such high-quality artifacts, Vicente could only build a few units. Beyond that, the most he could do was reinforce his existing 5th stage armor and perhaps create a few new ones.

Although these 5th stage robotic armors wouldn't tip the balance of the disaster, they were useful for guarding territories.

Vicente set off for Metal City, which he could reach in less than an hour from Grandis using his new ability.

...

Vicente made his way to Metal City, the current capital of the safe territory of Snow and Scott Provinces.

On the border of these two provinces, in the kingdom's southeast, one of the most southeastern areas of the continent, Metal City was now even larger than when Vicente left it some two years ago.

As he flew over the area, Vicente estimated that over 700,000 people now lived in his city, an incredible number for a city in Polaris Realm.

Though humans had ruled most of the continent for a hundred thousand years, human cities had rarely approached a million people mark, even in the continent's best and worst times.

Unlike Vicente's land, Polaris Realm couldn't comfortably accommodate that many people in one area simultaneously.

Metal City was an atypical case, especially considering that, unlike at the beginning of the crisis, there were now several safe cities in the area, so there was no need for people to live there.

Nova kissed Vicente as her heart leaped, having already noticed his current strength, but also the look in his eyes filled with worry.

Some thorny problem was in Vicente's mind. She could feel it!

"How are you? Did you miss me?" He asked, looking back and forth between Nova and Annie.

"Yes! Daddy, are you finally at Annie's side?" The little girl asked, clasping her small hands around Vicente's forehead.

"For a while, yes," he said just that, looking at Nova.

Nova realized he had serious things to say and grabbed Annie from Vicente's shoulders. "Annie, I want you to go back and play with your friends and toys. Mommy and Daddy need to talk."

The little girl didn't make things difficult, eager to play with her father and hear his story, but obedient enough to stay in the garden and wait her turn.

Nova took Vicente's hand and led him into the house.

"Where are Layla and Lina?" Vicente asked, hoping to discuss the family's current problems with everyone at once.

"Layla is at the altar of the city order. She should be back soon. As for Lina, she went to Metal City 7 two days ago to take care of some business." Nova replied as she sat down next to Vicente in one of the living rooms of the residence.

Lina and Layla, as well as Nova, were already Low-level Paragons. Vicente knew that, so he didn't need to hear from Nova why Lina had gone to Metal City.

With powers that helped her see into the future, Lina could be precious in solving problems for her area.

"We need to send a letter for Lina to return as soon as possible. I want her to be by my side to see my future. The strongest vampires on the continent are moving here right now. I need her to tell me the right time to act." He said as the two waited for Layla to return.
