Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

Chapter 861 Secrets of the World?

After the tribe chief's words, he motioned for Vicente to accompany him and left the area, leaving the young man's two companions behind.",

As Victor and Elmo stayed behind with the dark green dragon of the Intermediate Archmage cultivation, their hurried minds were filled with doubts.

The enormous dragon in front of them, looking in the direction from which Vicente and the First Elder had departed, murmured to them, "Do not keep your doubts to yourself. Ask what you need to ask."

"Elder, we don't understand what's going on," Elmo said carefully, so as not to offend the beast in front of him. "When you said you were expecting Vicente, was that because you saw our challenge?"

The large, dark green scaled dragon curled its thick black lips, revealing its many teeth, sharp as swords.

"What you really want to know is why we're willing to help you... Do you think our challenge isn't enough?"

"We don't doubt it." Victor said worriedly.

"But your doubts are justified. This really is a strange situation. Our ancestor Myndentan wouldn't talk to just any group that passed his challenge. For him to have done this, well, there's a greater meaning.

Anyway, come with me. I'll take you to the place where you should wait for your companion. He will have to stay with the tribe for a few weeks before you can continue your journey." The large being warned as he flapped his wings, soon heading for an area for the tribe's special guests.

...

Meanwhile, Vicente and the First Elder landed in an area a few miles from the core city of the tribe's territory.

The place they had just arrived at differed completely from the one they had left. In the middle of three mountains that ended at the same point, there was an area big enough for two 6th stage dragons, and there was a golden platform.

Various symbols and inscriptions that Vicente didn't understand adorned it, while the mana from it seemed to form a vortex over it, with a focal point in the middle of its area.

Stopping a few dozen meters from this platform, the First Elder said to Vicente, "You must have many doubts, but don't worry, you will understand everything.

For now, understand that you haven't just completed one of my tribe's challenges. As much as it may seem that anyone who has made your journey would get to where you are, things aren't that simple."

Vicente looked at the dragon, his heart filled with doubt as he listened anxiously for the creature's answers.

"My tribe has been developing traps and challenges far from our territory for tens of thousands of years. The area you passed has at least 50 different traps, leading to dozens of different dragon soul fragments.

The dragon you meet at the end of your challenges is the one that was predestined for you by the results of your challenges."

"Are you saying that others who followed the same challenge as my group would have met a different dragon at the end of the challenge?" Vicente asked.

"That's right," the large being shook his head as a miniature figure made of mana appeared in front of Vicente.

"The one you encountered and spoke of was not like the others that other challengers might encounter. Ancestor Myndentan, who traveled through the Polaris Realm 150,000 years ago, was the last of my tribe to reach the 7th stage and ascend to the Upper Continent.

Of the four dragons who have achieved this feat in our entire history, he was the one who broke through to the 7th stage the fastest, taking only a thousand years to cultivate. In other words, he is the most legendary figure in my tribe."

Vicente watched the First Elder's representation of Myndentan, surprised to hear that such an impressive figure had communicated with him.

"This is fantastic... It seems your tribe knows a lot about advancing to the 7th stage. Four of you made it!"

The large black scaled dragon sighed when he heard the young human's comment. "In the distant past of the continent, when magic was reserved for high-level races, the world was different.

Today, our world is the Polaris Realm. But a million years ago, brave magical beings could leave the continent and travel to another part of our world.

This is the place my ancestors called the Upper Continent, a magical place where there are beings stronger than Magus!"

Vicente was interested in what this figure had to say about such a place and looked at the First Elder with a twinkle in his eye.

Even though he had a significant challenge ahead of him, Vicente was an optimist person. One day he wanted to reach the 7th stage and the peak of magic, maybe enough to cure his sisters of their problems.

The First Elder continued, obviously aware of the interest everyone would have in hearing about the Upper Continent for the first time.

"I have little information about the Upper Continent. What I know was recorded hundreds of thousands of years ago, when my ancestors weren't worried about leaving a record of this fantastic place.

The Upper Continent is said to be even greater than the Polaris Realm, where magical beings like you and me can reach the 7th stage in a fraction of the time we take to reach it here.

There are supposedly immortal, wise beings there who can make the impossible happen.

Unfortunately, I don't know much more. When things changed, about a million years ago, we suddenly lost contact with the Upper Continent. From then on, it became impossible to access it. You had to reach the 7th stage to go there.

Just as it became impossible for those in the Polaris Realm to go to the Upper Continent, it became impossible for those in the Upper Continent to return, or at least, that's what we think.

We have had no contact with our ancestors on the Upper Continent since then."

"I didn't expect to hear that. So the continent once had access to such a powerful place?" Vicente asked as Myndentan's magical figure disappeared.

"Indeed. Do you understand why I'm telling you this?" The black dragon looked deep into Vicente's eyes.

"That..." Vicente hesitated for a moment, but answered after thinking. "You think I'll go to the Upper Continent in the future?"

"You are a clever boy. Indeed. The ancestral tribes of Majestic Treefrog Grove, not just the dragons, are united with the same purpose. To reconnect Polaris Realm to the Upper Continent. To do this, we need beings like you, Vicente Fuller."
