Taking the Mafia to the Magic World - Chapter 517

Chapter 517 Meeting Acquaintances?

?The next morning, Vicente left the Bain estate next to Nova at the beginning of the day and went for a walk through the city.

Dryhaven was a city surrounded by rivers, with a beautiful lake in the central part of the city, where there was a beach, but it also gave access to a large local river that went all the way to the sea, about 60 kilometers to the east.

The view from this part of the city was beautiful, and Nova wanted to show Vicente the beauties of her land during the day.

He seldom had time to enjoy the moment without worries, so she wanted to give him such a day.

Her father wouldn't be back until the end of the day, so they had plenty of time to enjoy themselves until their next appointment.

Later that day, Vicente and Nova had already strolled around the most visited places in Dryhaven before heading to one of the best local restaurants.

The two had entered the establishment a few moments earlier and placed their order. They were now chatting as they drank and waited for their food.

"You have to try the fish I ordered. It's delicious, Vice. You'll understand when you taste it." Nova told him with a relaxed and happy look on her face.

Vicente was in the same mood as his girlfriend, quite relaxed and content with this day off, which he had for the first time in a long time.

But when he looked into Nova's eyes, he suddenly felt something familiar in his surroundings.

Vicente's senses were very sharp, so when he felt something, he searched for the source of this sensation, quickly stopping his gaze toward a couple who had just arrived at the restaurant.

Looking at the blond man who had sat down across from him, a few tables away from them, and then at the green-haired woman, he quickly recognized them.

"Vice?" Nova was surprised to see the change in Vicente's expression and quickly turned her face to see what he was looking at.

"Don't look," Vicente said quietly. "I know those two. They're Livia Norris and Nicolas Grant."

"Oh?" Nova knew them too, not only that, but she knew a lot more about their story than Vicente since she had grown up in the city of their families. "And what's the problem?"

With Livia and Nicolas nearby, they left the restaurant as quickly as possible.

Luckily, Nicolas didn't notice Nova sitting not far from him while he concentrated on his business with Livia.

Livia didn't see either of them. Her back was to the table where Vicente and Nova were sitting.

When the couple finished eating, they paid their bill and left the restaurant discreetly.

...

Just after leaving the previous restaurant, Vicente and Nova laughed about their nervousness as they walked back to the Bain estate.

Halfway there, however, a group of armed men in armor stopped them in the middle of a sidewalk.

"Mister Fuller?" One of the grim-faced guards looked at Vicente and asked, trying to recognize this person with the one they were looking for.

"Right?" Vicente hadn't thought these people were after him, but he answered when he was called.

"Come with us. Count Grant is waiting for you at the family estate." The main guard, a level 9 General, said in a harsh tone, glaring at Vicente.

Nova frowned when she heard that and saw the expressions on the faces of the guards wearing the Grant family uniform.

"What's going on?" She asked.

The men there didn't know Nova, nor could they know that she was a Commandant in the royal army without seeing her credentials.

One of them didn't look at her but replied. "He'll find out when he comes with us."

Vicente didn't understand the situation either. He didn't know Count Grant and had no dealings with any of the nobleman's allies.

`Could this be Nicolas and Livia's doing?` Vicente worried. But now that these people had stopped him, he couldn't ignore the fact. If there was a problem, he had to dig deeper and solve it before his situation got worse.

`Shit!`

He said, smiling at these people as if he didn't owe anyone anything. "All right, please lead the way."
