Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 94 The Weight of Decisions?

"Yes. I met the young master when he visited my estate in the village some time ago." Vicente said in a determined tone. "That's how I became interested in doing business with Baron Irwin."

Baron Irwin was not a rash man, and being near the end of his life, he knew very well how to control himself in the face of important things.

He asked, still calm but much more interested than before. "What did you two talk about? Do you know where he went after that? My son disappeared after he was seen leaving your estate in Martell Village."

"He disappeared?" Vicente asked as he frowned and looked at the Baron and then at Rory.

Rory had learned acting skills from his mother and had accompanied Vicente in this performance for the Baron and his bodyguard.

"Did that happen?" The young redhead asked in a surprised tone. "We were talking business that day. He said he heard about us while passing near the village and was interested in our prices to do business for the Irwin family."

Vicente nodded and spoke. "We didn't want to stay long in the village because I was moving to Millfall with my little sister that day. So after he left, we didn't look for him anymore. We decided to come here after we settled in.

I didn't expect that he was actually missing... I am so sorry for you and your family, Baron. I know how hard it is not to know where a loved one is."

The Baron was almost moved to tears when he saw the sadness in Vicente's eyes as the dark-haired young man remembered Lauren.

Even the experienced warrior beside him believed Vicente and thought these two probably had nothing to do with their young master's disappearance.

Come to think of it, as talented as they were, they were pretty weak to threaten the third young master's group!

"So that was it... You two talked business." The Baron relaxed a bit, sighing at being unable to find out more from these two.

But from what he knew, the Fuller family seemed to have innovative trading methods, and their more advantageous prices for producers and consumers were indeed attractive enough for his son to go into business with them.

Even if that guy was arrogant, he was not stupid. He certainly knew how to deal with relevant people and when to make deals to benefit himself and his family.

As he thought about it, Baron Irwin believed the story of these two young men!

"Tell me what you talked about with my son. He is not here, but we can still do business." The Baron said before Rory and Vicente presented the deals they could make.

With the death of the merchant who had died at the hands of Baron Irwin's third son, some of that man's contracts would no longer be valid. The business and resources involved in those contracts could be reallocated to other deals.

Because of this, Vicente and Rory had many business options to present to this man, even though most of the resources they were dealing with were already committed.

...

Two hours after arriving at the Irwin estate, Vicente and Rory finished their business talks with the Baron and signed an agreement for 10 tons of grain per year to be sold to the house.

After signing their magical agreements, Baron Irwin left them alone in the room, wishing to see them soon, as he was unable to escort them to the exit due to urgency.

Vicente and Rory had a full stomach after eating with the Baron, satisfied with the deal, but also with the opportunity to be alone in some of the rooms of this place, but also the parts of this house they still visited in their time there.

As they prepared to leave, Rory asked his friend, "So? Did you notice anything relevant?"

"Hmmm." Vicente nodded, smiling. "I think I got the essence... We can start adjusting some parts of our plans, but I need you to work on this piece."

Rory heard this and looked at the servant from earlier, who was approaching him and Vice along with the butler.

"How am I supposed to do that?" He asked.

But with the two so close, they put the matter aside for a moment and were led out of the estate while Lena talked to them.

"So you managed to make a deal with the Baron? Very good. Now I will be able to see handsome young men like you more often." She said in a humorous tone.

"Haha, you flatter us," Vicente commented as he patted Rory on the back. "But miss, be careful, or this friend of mine here will fall in love."

They laughed after a few more comments until the two were back in their carriage heading back to their estate.

"Why don't you try to do something with that woman?" Vicente asked, remembering Rory's question a few moments ago.

"What?" Rory opened her eyes wide, impressed by Vice's suggestion.

"She's pretty and has a mature body that would please any young man like us. And she'll obviously accept you after some investment." Vicente commented. "Use this to bring her closer to us and get the information we need from this property."

"Should we really involve her?" Rory hesitated.

"We should implicate someone. Without corrupting someone in the Irwin family group, we won't get the information we need." Vicente's words were dry.

"She's already made herself available, so why not? Rory, she's just a servant with nothing to lose. If we give her a chance to escape and reach a better position, she could benefit greatly."

"She could also die," Rory said.

He preferred not to involve innocent people in his affairs. Acting against the Irwin family would be a 'self-defense' measure for them. But using Lena would be complicated and could do a lot of damage to that woman's life.

Vicente knew that Rory was not as cold as he, who had seen a bit of everything in his two lives and said. "To work with us or not will be her choice, my friend. She is an adult. If she chooses to betray the Irwin family for what we offer, then that is her responsibility, not ours.

But not only that, but by being part of an enemy force of ours, she will be harmed in one way or another by our plans. This could be her chance to save herself from a 'sinking ship' before anyone else and still get valuable resources to continue her journey elsewhere".

Rory closed his eyes and said nothing, knowing that it was a fact that they would harm this family if their plans worked out.

"All right, I will try my best. But what if she doesn't accept?" Rory asked.

"I'll let you decide what to do if that happens. I know you comprehend how important it would be." Vicente said nothing more, knowing that his friend had to be determined to do some things for himself. Rory could not always be convinced by him at times like this! He had to make up his own mind!

"Anyway, we'll work on it in the next few weeks. In the meantime, I have to finish my studies at the forge and deal with the Peters. They're starting to show us their claws." Vice voiced, looking out of his carriage with a determined look.
