Chapter 152 Assassin: Time for Cesar to Come Back!?
When Vicente left the Association building at the end of the day, he was not physically tired, but mentally.
The stronger he became, the more he could process new information and understand the rules of how things worked in this world. After a day of studying and some training at the Association's headquarters, he was tired as he left that place at dusk on his way home.
However, with his mana at its best and his stats getting higher and higher, Vicente noticed something as he walked back to his house for his daily dinner with Nina and Eve.
His eyes moved to the side, but he didn't change his expression or his walking motion towards his house.
However, Vice clearly felt someone following him!
After training as a blacksmith to extract metals from ores, he refined many of his special skills. Now, Vicente could more easily sense and control the metals in the bodies of those around him.
He had developed this to the point where he could passively sense the presence of people around him through the sensation of the metals in their bodies, which had unique markings for each person.
When he noticed one of these markings following him, Vicente felt an urgency he had never felt before.
'Has someone discovered me? How?' He asked himself as he realized this person following him was neither one of his men nor his ally.
Sensing the magic level of such a person, a level 3 Acolyte, Vicente didn't want to take any chances.
Maybe there were more people connected to this person, so it wouldn't be good for him to take this individual to his residence, where Nina was.
'Damn it!' He changed his destination and started to take that man to the east side of the city, where his territory was.
But while Vicente was doing this, he was moving quietly along the city's sidewalks as if he were casually returning home after a long day's work.
The man chasing him realized that this young man wasn't going to his usual place and was surprised. 'Is he going to reveal himself? Is he really Cesar?' This person asked himself, still unsure if his hunch was true or just a false feeling.
Considering the possibilities created by some people's special magical abilities, this man didn't need any clues or evidence to understand what the assassins and local soldiers were after.
The abilities that made such a thing possible were rare, and few had the chance to even know about people with such abilities.
Considering how terrible some abilities were, most of their users kept their secrets under lock and key, killing anyone who found out.
This man chasing Vice had one of those abilities, and through it, he discovered a subtle connection between Vicente Fuller and Cesar Mazzanti.
He had realized it this morning when he had accidentally passed Vicente and begun observing the young man. Since he already knew that Vice lived in the central part of Millfall, he couldn't help but be surprised by the young man's current movements.
Fearing that Vicente would approach Cesar's headquarters and other assassins would realize who he was, the man decided to act.
Noticing that Vicente was near an area with little traffic, he used his assassination technique, which had already killed more than 20 targets.
