Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 971  A Man Committed and Willing to Do Anything

"Disciple Fuller, another demonstration of incredible power," said a man with a long white beard, an extremely red monkey nose, and a body as strong as a chimpanzee.

But despite the powerful appearance of this 5-Star Magus, his blue and white suit, long pants, and beautiful leather shoes gave the impression of civility and friendliness.

This was Asahel Manifold, representative of a powerful family and a renowned alliance in Light Cay. A member of a power known for its combat artifacts, special outfits, and training centers, this man was there to get to know Vicente better and come to an agreement that would be good for both sides.

Vicente knew this very well, as he had already heard from Prisiche about the powerful Manifold Family and the Ancient Garden, the alliance with one of the largest training centers on the 'island', run by the Manifold Family.

After his previous results, powers from Ravengarde and other parts of Light Cay had already sought him out for sponsorship. But Collins, Larissa and Prisiche had advised him to wait until one of the major powers approached him.

His wait hadn't lasted a month, and the powerful Manifold Family had sent a representative to Vicente's third official fight at the Combat Center.

Vicente greeted the man, smiling invitingly as he beckoned the six-foot-tall man to accompany him.

Along with Asahel and Prisiche, Myles followed Vicente with two other men, knowing that the three would talk, but wanting to say a few words to Vicente first.

"Vicente, enjoy your business with Mr. Asahel, but don't forget to come see me later. We have business regarding your mission with the Center," said the man who had been supervising him.

"I'll look for you in the administration wing."

"Hmm, by the way, that was a good victory. I'm looking forward to seeing you show everything you know." With that, Myles walked away from the three, leaving with his two companions to make way for Vice.

Vicente laughed bitterly and then heard something similar from Asahel.

"I'm looking forward to it, too. I especially want to see you show what you can do when you speak on behalf of the Ancient Garden."

"We can certainly arrange that," Vicente's expression changed as he said these words, and he walked across the area of the platforms without bothering to find a place to sit down.

He wasn't tired from the previous fight, and most of the time the fighting platform wing was pretty quiet, with only the people who were going to fight in official matches or training there. At least, that was usually the case, and today was no different.

"What can your group offer me, Mr. Asahel?" Vicente got right to the point.

He found the idea of sponsorship in the cultivation world a little strange. But hell, if these people wanted to give him resources for him to speak on behalf of their organizations, and it didn't go against their goals, why should he object?

He desperately needed resources, and right now, he did not even have enough for himself and Larissa.

No matter how many weeks had passed since the formation of {Golden Partners}, they still hadn't recruited. They even approached people who could be their first future partners, but they still didn't have the resources to take the key step.

However, with the help of the group represented by Asahel today, things could change quickly!

The half-chimpanzee, half-human, smiled at the direct question. "Disciple Vicente, you are important to my group, so I will not hide the fact that we will invest a lot in you. But this investment may not be everything you want right away.

We're going to give you a lot of benefits, such as the ability to cultivate in the Ancient Garden for an unlimited time, we're going to give you several special resources every month according to your cultivation level, and we're also going to give you a subsidy to help you with your expenses within the sect.

You will also receive rewards for achieving results. Whenever new residents of the island use our services and products, you will earn 5% of the amount they pay each time. This reward program will continue for a duration of 5 years. After that period, we can renegotiate new terms or end our relationship."

Vicente stopped halfway to the exit of the platform wing, somewhat impressed by this offer.

'Waiting has been good for me. This is a fascinating proposal.' He thought. '5% isn't much, but if I can reach hundreds of thousands of new users of their services, I'll have a huge amount of stone coins in my hands in no time. All I have to do is continue to fight official matches, and more and more people will watch me and eventually feel my influence.' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Ancient Garden and the Manifold Family would not put him on a giant billboard or on TV commercials like Vicente had seen in his life on Earth. But they would certainly change his story to appeal to the general public and make them think he had become so strong because of the services and products of these forces.

Did Vicente care? The only thing he cared about was achieving his goals, keeping his family safe, and seeing his beloved daughter again. The rest could be adjusted, and he was ready to do anything!

He liked what Asahel had already presented, but he wanted to know more. "Exactly how much monthly allowance are we talking about?"

"100,000 stone coins per month and an initial bonus of 1 million stone coins for doing business with us. In addition, the cultivation resources will be classified according to your ability to absorb them.

For the time being, you won't be able to absorb them, but we'll still give them to you based on what you should be able to absorb at your current level. We'll give you an initial sum, part of the signing bonus, worth 5 times what you'll receive monthly soon, and we'll also provide you with armor and a weapon of your choice, of the highest quality you can use." Asahel was more specific, showing Vicente how generous the Manifold Family was.

These were considerable values that he desperately needed. Although he could earn more by giving up some of the signing bonus for a greater share of future profits, he felt he could accept the deal as it was.

'With months of cultivation resources and a million stone coins, I'll be able to get the first five members of the faction quickly. This will support me when I complete my first year in the sect and can leave this area.' Vicente clenched his fists as he stood at the exit of the battleground wing.
