Taking the Mafia to the Magic World - Chapter 983

Chapter 983 Training with Alicia

In Alicia's training room, Vicente removed the item he was using to alter his appearance. Putting his glasses aside—Prisiche—he looked at his combat partner for the day.

"How exactly will our relationship work from now on?"

His obligation to train Alicia wasn't very specific. It only said that, twice a year, he should dedicate part of his time to assisting this woman's growth. But how this would happen, for how long, was not specified.

She finished putting on her combat items, saying as she adjusted her armor, "About that, your mission with me depends on two things. One, my saturation and two, my advancement to the 8th stage."

He frowned, looking at her uncomprehendingly, but without interrupting her words.

"Regarding my advancement to the 8th stage, that obviously won't happen overnight. But the family expects you to accompany me there, helping me with training to spur me on and eventually joining the hunt for my eighth pentagram."

That was the simple but time-consuming part. He understood well what he would have to do, although he didn't like how long he would have to be involved in this mission.

'Looks like I let myself be fooled by a not-so-well-explained term. Tsk! I didn't expect them to be so cheap with their contracts.' Vicente thought to himself, recognizing his mistake but not showing much irritation.

Although he didn't like the situation, something that would force him to do this job for a long time, it wasn't so complicated that he regretted it.

"As for my saturation, well, with each session together, you'll have to stay by my side until I reach my limit. You and I are busy people and we can't be together all the time, so we'll have meetings limited to what I can absorb from each opportunity to learn from you." She finished.

There was a limit to how much a body could absorb, how much a cultivator could improve with each cultivation, study, or other method of self-improvement. That limit was saturation, the point at which she would know it was time for each of their sessions together to end. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Show me what you're capable of," he said as he made the creatures fly at her, transforming in the air as they moved terrifyingly fast to her senses.

'Something if off.' She felt strange at the start of the fight, but tried to use her powers to neutralize her opponent.

Making her flower open to its fullest as it glowed, several copies of that small plant sprouted in the surroundings, releasing a dark powder into the air.

A purple barrier formed around him, while the black powder mixed with the air seemed to gain momentum, rushing around Vicente with an obvious interest in surrounding him.

"Biological weapon, I see. You're a killing machine." Vicente recognized her potential in combat, however, he was her weak point. "Someone with a power like yours has as their worst kind of opponent those who can influence their mind."

It went on for five seconds, as she blinked, seeing worlds alternate, for a moment seeing herself in a place surrounded by vampires and then again in the training room with him.

"Opponents who can control your body and mana." He added as he made her feel a different heartbeat, capable of taking the air out of her and making her suffocate.

"Opponents who can break through your barriers and fight you with their fists," he said, appearing a meter in front of her, having overcome her barrier without difficulty.

She overbalanced backwards as she opened her eyes wide, extremely frightened.

"In my case, I can do all three things at once. So, Miss Alicie, you have a lot to improve on," he said as he moved one of his fists slowly, hitting her abdomen, then throwing her against one wall of the room.

With a loud 'pa!' against the wall, Alicia felt her bones ache, her body resist her commands, while her mind seemed uncertain of what was reality and what was an illusion.

"Don't worry, we'll strengthen your methods. Now, please, use everything you've got. I'm looking forward to taking on someone as strong as you seriously," he said, making her see that she could go all out against him.
