Chapter 595 Seeking to Keep a Promise
A Few Days Later...
Vicente was walking through the central streets of the capital of the Seidel Kingdom, the beautiful Grandis.
After a few days of trouble-free travel, he had arrived in this city this morning.
As he made his way through the local streets, he saw some of the true power of the Seidel family, seeing a place much more powerful than one would find traveling through most of the kingdom.
About 5 cities in the kingdom, including the capital, had Sovereigns and looked more like cities of the Chutha Dynasty or the Kenyth Empire than the Seidel Kingdom's cities. But that was it. The rest of the kingdom seemed much simpler and weaker.
Vicente understood why. The kingdom wasn't strong, but most of the local experts lived in the capital or in the cities closest to the capital.
Grandis was second only to the capitals of the dynasty and the empire in terms of strength and development. But this city would not pale compared to many of the places Vicente had passed through recently.
"This place has a lot of Sovereigns.' Torne commented to his master as Vicente walked towards a large complex of buildings on one of the capital's largest estates.
Seeing the Seidel Magic College from afar, Vicente agreed with Torne. 'Most of the power of the state is here, old Torne. The king is a public figure. He needs his men at his side. It's not like someone like me living in the shadows.'
'Living in the shadows isn't bad. Your family probably has more control over Scott Province today than the royal family.' Torne said jokingly but also sincerely.
'Probably.' Minos laughed before entering the area that housed the largest magical training facility in the entire kingdom.
As soon as he entered one of the main buildings in the area and arrived at a reception hall, a well-dressed, good-looking woman approached him with a smile on her face.
"Senior, how can I help you?" Asked this woman with red hair and an appearance that combined youth and maturity. She didn't look old, but she certainly wasn't young.
Some of the young people there, who were, on average, a year younger than Vicente, looked at him, which soon drew Alice's attention to the place's entrance.
When she stopped talking and looked at Vicente, Alice was silent for a moment, trying to remember if she had ever seen that face before. She was an excellent physiognomist, so it didn't take her more than a few breaths to conclude that she didn't know him.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" She asked him as she walked to his side.
"Vicente Fuller." He muttered to her before asking with a smile. "Can we have a word?"
This woman was a High-level Mage, so she couldn't sense Vicente's cultivation. However, there was no way she wouldn't notice the beast on one of the young man's shoulders.
"Hmm." She nodded to him before turning to her class and telling them to continue without her.
"Vicente Fuller... Are you of the Fuller family of Chilldale?" She asked him as she reached the corridor that gave access to her class and three others in that part of the building.
"No, we just share the same name." He smiled before touching one of the woman's shoulders. "Alice, you don't know me, but I know you. In particular, we have a contact in common that I'd like you to help me get in touch with."
"Who is this person?"
"Joshua Lambton. If I'm not mistaken, a good friend or girlfriend of his is named June Evans. A few years ago, you three traveled through Scott Province looking for something." Vicente gave no details since he had met these people under Cesar's identity.
Although he was no longer afraid of the royal family of that state, he preferred not to have any problems with the army. It would still be a big headache for him to deal with problems from the royal family.
Alice immediately remembered the trip and the two students she had accompanied to Ironcrest. "I remember them. Even though I wasn't very close to them, I taught them for a year and traveled with them for a few months on that trip to Ironcrest. But how do you know that?"
Vicente smiled at her but didn't answer the question. "Do you know how I can find him? I need to talk to him about something that might interest him."
