After Lauren left him, Vicente went alone to the Blacksmith Association, where the best materials in the city were to be found.",
The king and the strongest n of Grandis had interesting resources and were already gathering things for him. But Vicente wanted to see for himself what was in the association.
He went there, leaving the local forces to prepare for their conquest of the capital.
In addition to the association, Vicente wanted to see to the recovery of the wounded citizens, as well as find out about the situation of his Fuller family.
At the end of the day, he would learn about the victories and defeats of his group, which had grown in the Seidel Kingdom until five months ago, when they controlled Scott Province, Snow Province, and half of Diamond Province.
Half of the kingdom's resources were being transported by the family's railroads back then, while the Seidel family was the only one with more trade agreents with the kingdom's nobles than the Fuller family.
Everything changed in the last five months, as the family lost control of the Diamond Province, retreating to their original territory, which they had failed to protect.
Half of the cities in Scott Province had fallen in recent months, while over two-thirds of Snow Province had fallen.
The family's business was now concentrated in the small safe area between Scott Province and Snow Province, and the group had lost contact with the capital.
There was still a group of the family living in Grandis, but they were practically independent, allied with the king's forces.
The only major positive was that the number of n in the family had not diminished and was at its highest level since Vicente's departure.
With 3,000 magicians in the kingdom, most of them in tal City, the Fuller family was second only to the kingdom's army in numbers, outnumbering the combined forces of all the remaining nobles!
From what he had heard, Bart, the great Basilisk, had beco a Sky Sovereign months ago, the sa level Nova had reached. Eve was now an Earth Sovereign, while the Lamia Vicente had left behind, Prisiche, had beco a Sky Sovereign.
Several other family mbers had beco stronger, as had old allies like Shelby, who had recently beco an Earth Sovereign shortly after moving to tal City.
Millfall was still standing, but the head of the Staples family had moved to tal City at the sa ti as Nina and the core of the Fuller family.
She now held the title of Count on behalf of her brother Levi, who had recently awakened to his powers but was still under Shelby's control.
Anyway, despite the chaos in the kingdom and the family's losses, Vicente was more happy than disappointed, because with people alive, he could still repair the family's shattered structure!
...
The next morning, Vicente left the city with Lauren, Torne, and a group of 300 n.
He had already made a Magic Agreent with Lauren to limit her actions if she tried to act against magicians of their alliance. As a result, she no longer used the previous restrictive items, having cultivated and restored all of her mana the night before.
For the first ti since their reunion, Lauren and Vicente would finally fight the monsters side by side!
As they made their way towards the first enemies along the way, Vicente couldn't help but ask her about her abilities.
"How does your Book of Death work? How do you use it to kill monsters? Don't you need to know the nas of your targets before you act?"
He looked at his sister while the three of them were dozens of ters ahead of the troops who were there to take over the conquered territories.
She answered sincerely, though her expression was still unhappy about the agreent she had been forced to sign. "If I have the na, the magical fluctuation, and the appearance of my target, I can act against them even if I'm dozens of kiloters away from them.
But I can use the Book of Death to kill those whose nas I don't know as long as they are within my field of vision, and I can sense their magical fluctuation."
"Is there a limit to how many opponents you can handle at the sa ti?" He asked curiously.
"My limit is my writing speed and my magical power. Now that I'm a Paragon, but I only have four pentagrams, I can probably kill a few hundred naless opponents per minute."
"That's impressive! It's no wonder Nixlas' Shadows invested so much in you. They really wanted to create a weapon of mass destruction!" Torne comnted excitedly, feeling Lauren's power would help them a lot to regain lost territories and to keep what was regained from now on.
"But I'd only be able to do that for 30 minutes at the most, if the enemies were as weak as possible. After that, I would have to retire to cultivate for a while," she added.
If her enemies were Paragons, she could barely kill a few of them before she would be exhausted. But if they were Apprentices, she could probably kill an entire city before she used up all her mana.
Vicente understood his sister's limits and was eager to see her in action.
"I'll let you take out your frustration on our opponents until you get tired. From then on, I'll take the lead in our action today."
Lauren didn't mind and positioned herself at the front of the group, flying with a bloodthirsty look on her face.
As soon as they spotted the first groups of monsters moving near Grandis, she summoned her magic artifact form as her pentagrams solidified in the air.
As Lauren opened her arms and the mana in the area changed, frightening so of the weaker n in her battalion, words appeared on the pages of her book as the witnesses saw 2nd, 3rd, and 4th stage monsters fall in droves.
In just one minute, 325 monsters within range of the eyes of these over 300 magicians fell nearby, leaving their bodies intact, but no longer the terrifying sensation capable of making the weakest or those of the sa level feel oppressed in their presence.
Thus began Vicente's journey alongside his older sister!
