Chapter 325 Results of the Battle at The Vile Altar
The moment Vicente raised his right hand, the blades flying around sliced into the bodies of those Mages.
The first to die was Alex, who was already in a terrible situation from the moment Vicente appeared near his group. Then Tyson fell second, his throat severely cut.
Tyson had a bitter look on his face before he died, not believing in his last moments that someone like him, full of potential, would fall into this simple place and at the hands of a mere Acolyte.
But only the strong decide how they die!
His regrets and bitterness didn’t matter to the world. Since he had dared to act, his death was nothing but natural!
Would it cause a stir in the future? Would the “unjust” death of such a person make any difference to the world?
Only time will tell. But the fact was that Vicente had won this battle!
After dealing with the two Low-level Mages, Vicente finished off Peter. With more than 70% of his forces available to deal with the last enemy, the young Fuller ended Peter’s career in the royal army by killing a Mid-level Mage like it was no big deal.
But how hard could it be for him? At his best, with his understanding of his elements higher than ever and with the enemies severely weakened, killing them was like a walk in the park for Vicente!
Earlier, they had gone to excessive lengths to take care of the men of the Congregation of Revelations, confident that Cesar would not be a threat to them.
That had been the mistake of Vice’s enemies that night!
Vicente had been riddled with problems before and had even considered ‘surrendering’ to one of his opponents in search of time to continue growing. Not only that, but he had more problems than he thought, with enemies from one of the strongest forces in the province, another from the most powerful organization in the state, and the last from the most powerful institution on the continent.
His last days had been extremely tense and worrying!
But with a bit of luck, but also competence, those who wanted his head that day were no longer in this world, while he had guaranteed himself the extra time he needed.
Vicente was aware that his problems did not end with the death of these people. Seeing Peter’s brutalized body, he was fully aware this night would have its consequences.
But for someone growing as fast as he was, it was always better to push as many of his problems into the future as possible!
Suppose he could leave today’s problem until tomorrow, fine! If he could do it a month, a year, or more from now, even better!
‘The forces behind them will probably investigate their deaths and find a way to get close to me. Fortunately, I didn’t kill any members of the Congregation of Revelation.’ He thought as he felt exhausted, finally without any more enemies to fight.
‘Anyway, while it’s worrying that I killed army soldiers, it will take some time for the royal powers to find out what happened…’ His eyes narrowed as he thought about it. ‘I have to kill Christopher Hogan! He’s the only one in the army who knows about my connection to these murders!’
Remembering this, Vicente felt his heart beat faster.
‘There are also the people behind the other group, master. As powerful as they are, the Congregation of Revelations is the least of your worries. Those members of that damned faith seem to be acting on their own, based on the information you have. In that case, your biggest problems right now are the army and The Faceless faction.’ Torne said, considering what he already knew from Vicente and what they had heard earlier.
‘That is the case.’ Vice clenched his fists. ‘Dealing with the army won’t be that difficult. I can quickly find out who at that post had information about the departure of the Commanders I killed and then deal with them. The problem here is the weakest of my enemies.’ He looked in the direction of the bald man’s body.
Vicente had no idea who in that faction knew about the movement of those four against him that day. That would be the most difficult point for him to get rid of his problem!
“Sigh… I won’t worry about that for now. First, I’ll collect the belongings from those bodies, recover, and then return to Millfall.” He muttered, realizing there was nothing he could do to solve his problems while he was in The Vile Altar.
Not only that but knowing his men would certainly have problems in Millfall, he was in quite a hurry to get back to his town!
lightsnοvεl.cοm So he quickly gathered the belongings of the six bodies from around the surface of The Vile Altar. He gathered these bodies with the others he had collected in the previous levels and then made a bonfire.
Then he looked at his new possessions while waiting for the bodies to turn to ash.
‘The wealth of Mages is really on another level!’ Vicente smiled as he realized the resources he had gained from this dangerous encounter he had arranged.
Vicente now had more wealth than he had in the Irwin family vault because of the belongings of 2 level 5 Acolytes, 6 Low-level Mages, and 2 Mid-level Mages.
‘It looks like I can make a lot of money from fighting to the death, too.’ He smiled and counted more than 13,000 gold coins, counting all types of coins, as he put all the coins of these ten enemies together.
Although none of them was a nobleman or had a wealthy position in society, most were experts in the province and had lived decades longer than Vicente.
They all had savings in their spatial rings, even considering their monthly expenses and the investments that every magician had to make on a regular basis.
There were no banks in Polaris Realm, or rather, there were no banks like those on Earth on this continent. The owners of the coins themselves were the best at keeping them safe, so except for the few cases of rich people who had a lot to protect and had guards to help them, people usually took most of their wealth with them.
Because of this, Vicente was now about 13,000 gold coins richer, in addition to the other items he had gotten from his opponents’ rings.
‘I also got
– 3 magic stones;
– 4 4th-grade armors;
– 5 4th-grade weapons;
– 21 2nd-grade pills and 14 potions, between 80% and 100% purity;
– 8 3rd-grade pills and 3 potions, between 60% and 75% purity…’
These were the main battle ‘prizes,’ but there were also other items such as documents, letters, basic artifacts without enchantments, and spells based on different types of elements.
Vicente wasn’t unaware of the value of these other things, and of course, he kept anything that couldn’t be traced along with the other more valuable items.
He then looked at the ashes of these bodies and finished counting his winnings.
‘Time to go!’
