<h4>Chapter 524 Salvation and Trauma</h4>


    The Seidel Kingdom was not a strong state. That was the first and most important problem with following someone''s footsteps outside of this state. If it were hard enough to do it inside the kingdom, it would be much worse to do it outside, with more dangers, expensive service costs, and much more.


    Not only that, but while there weren''t many special magical creatures in the Seidel Kingdom, there were areas outside of it where all kinds of creatures were present.


    From goblins to trolls to vampires, they were out there!


    If Casey wasn''t careful, he could die in the blink of an eye!


    That was the danger for Vicente''s partner. But Vice and his group also ran the risk of losing track of the man and having no way to move forward.


    Casey''s ability was too phenomenal for Vicente to give up on this guy, so upon hearing this information, Vice became concerned about the continuity of his ns.


    "Shit! Where is he going? Did his father leave the kingdom?" Vicente asked aloud.


    "That seems to be the case. Fortunately, our informants seem to be able to continue their work for now." The level 5 soldier, one of many the family currently had at that level, said with a sigh. "But that won''t be the case for long. We could lose any trace of him at any moment."


    "Sigh... I know." Vicente turned and looked out of his office window at the beautiful view of the city he had from there. "But there''s nothing to be done. I don''t intend to leave Saltstar City or the kingdom for at least another three months."


    Three months was all it took for Nina''sst year at the basic academy to end and her next four years to be determined. After that, everything would be decided for her, and Vicente finally nned to take his revenge.


    "I''ll make sure the group keeps an eye on him as much as possible until the end of this period, my Don."


    "Hmm, you do that."


    This man left just before a mature-looking blonde woman with green eyes entered Vicente''s office and brought him some drinks and snacks.


    This woman was dressed in domestic attire but looked extremely beautiful and seductive.


    Her curves were particrly blessed, with measurements that would make any man desire and fantasize about her.


    She had a beautiful smile that easily hid her dark past.


    Vicente saw Eve''s mother and smiled at her. "Thank you for your time, Mrs. Ostell. There''s no need for you to treat me so well."


    How could Eve''s mother be on the Fuller estate if she was supposed to be a prostitute for The Ruby Devils?


    Well, that was just one of the many changes that had taken ce in Saltstar City in recent months!


    Not long after Vicente and Nova returned from Dryhaven, enemies of The Ruby Devils made a deal with Lukas for firearms capable of killing even Mages.


    With such a deal in ce, it wasn''t long before battles and deaths involving The Ruby Devils erupted in Saltstar City, heralding the beginning of the end for what was once thergest faction in the province''s underworld.


    It wasn''t long before The Ruby Devils lost 70% of their specialists in just over a month of fighting against their enemies. After that, the weakest of the group who survived the local faction war fled, leaving only a few Mages behind.


    Some of Vicente''s friends acted on his behalf to hasten the faction''s demise, and in one night, all the relevant names of The Ruby Devils vanished from this world.


    With the fall of The Ruby Devils, Eve''s mother and many other women forced into prostitution were freed, with this woman before Vicente having been brought into this family by him about 3 weeks ago.


    The forces responsible for the weakening of The Ruby Devils didn''t care about the people who fled or escaped. They only cared about taking control of that faction''s business and territory.


    After years of being forced into prostitution, she had learned to cope with the job and even to enjoy it.


    She had been forced into prostitution after suffering much at the hands of her husband''s enemies and bad clients. But with the drugs she had been forced to take for several years, she couldn''t deny the pleasure of being forced to do things with people of practically every type and background.


    At some point, she had just given in to her enemies, thinking that since she couldn''t fight back, she could at least enjoy it...


    That led her to the depravities that tormented her husband during his time in Long Bay Correctional Facility, as he received regr updates on his wife''s situation.


    But even though she had learned to enjoy the life of a prostitute, this woman still had her rational side intact. She knew how degrading it all was and how happy she should be to be released.


    She had strange thoughts now and felt certain unusual desires, but she didn''t miss being a hostage or being forced to do all kinds of things. She knew how to behave in public and kept what she learned to herself or those close to her.


    Unfortunately for Nico, their marriage didn''t work out after all her experiences.


    But she and Nico ended their rtionship peacefully; he was relieved that she was now free and was less guilty that she didn''t have to torment her ex.


    Even though her marriage to Nico was over, she still slept with him almost every day, something she did with half a dozen different men these days...


    That was the biggest sequel this woman had won!


    Vicente smiled at her as she served him, as she did every day since she got her current position.


    As much as she felt and thought many obscene things about Vicente, she didn''t show it, didn''t dare to disrespect this person who had saved her whole family.


    Just thinking about what she would do to him if she had the chance wouldn''t hurt anyone!
