A new day has begun.

Before dawn, Vasini opened his eyes; he had been in a state of high excitement, tension, and self-discipline these past few days.

He knew he absolutely could not relax.

Even if all the enemies on the surface had already been eliminated.

He knew fully well how he came to have everything he had now; his foundation was very unstable, so he had to put in a sufficient amount of effort.

Fortunately, the continuous killings of Luca and the brilliant achievements against Kaster were enough to awe those who didn't know the inside story.

Even those families who lost their leaders and had doubts didn't dare to really speak up.

He temporarily unified these people together.

Then, through one strike after another against Uttahan, he gradually, little by little, completely assimilated them all.

What exactly is Uttahan like now, still so powerful?

Not at all. Ever since Kaster's death, they really became scattered, and Vasini pursued victory, killing many core members of Uttahan and successfully breaking their several secret strongholds.

Even the people within Uttahan couldn't figure out how their hidden strongholds were accurately searched and hit.

After thinking it over, they could only reach one conclusion, which was that there was a traitor.

But who this traitor was, they probably couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they thought.

Kaster.

Honestly, when Vasini first saw Kaster, he was truly startled, almost to the point of taking action.

If it weren't for the Divine Envoy stepping in, he would really have questioned his life.

Kaster actually wasn't dead.

But he was already controlled by the Divine Envoy, or rather, the great Lord.

Kaster now had none of his former ferocity, becoming docile, doing whatever the Divine Envoy ordered him to do.

All the information about Uttahan came from him.

With the continuous victories, Vasini's prestige grew higher and higher.

With this situation, it is believed that it won't take long for him to restore the glory of his ancestors.

Even further, to become the sole ruler of the South District.

Martino will become a dazzling surname.

After handling quite a few matters early in the morning, Vasini dined on breakfast himself and then walked, carrying a freshly slaughtered lamb, toward an inconspicuous house near the Sanctuary.

He was going to deliver food to Kaster.

This task, in recent times, had always been done by Vasini himself.

Because he had to ensure the secrecy of the matter.

Mainly, he couldn't let others know Kaster was still alive, especially... Valentino.

Valentino was now an important assistant to him, handling many matters.

Valentino had also shown unprecedented ability, which couldn't be seen when he was just a small family leader.

But now, perhaps because his whole family was gone, he was like a hungry wolf unleashed from its chains.

Many methods and ideas left Vasini in awe.

With Valentino's aid, the process of taking over those family forces could go so smoothly.

Valentino couldn't have problems. If he knew Kaster was still alive, things would turn bad.

Arriving in front of the inconspicuous house, Vasini observed for any absence of people, then opened the lock with the key and entered.

This place was once used when he had disputes with his family, a spot not many knew about.

Upon opening the door, surprisingly, there wasn't much of a smell in the room, only a faint scent of earth and growing plants.

Kaster was sitting cross-legged in the center of the room, wearing a simple linen robe, and coupled with his handsome features, he looked just like those hermit practitioners in stories.

"I brought you some food."

Vasini placed the lamb on the ground without a bad attitude.

He still remembered clearly how formidable this guy was, so he always had some shadows in his heart.

"Just leave it there."

Kaster opened his eyes and made a swallowing motion, but he wasn't looking at the lamb; he was looking at Vasini.

He hadn't enjoyed a beautiful human body in several days; his vitality told him only humans had enough energy to replenish him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't eat them.

This was a rule set by Ethan, only raw meat could be eaten, no humans.

This kept his vitality only in a state of not losing his human form.

"Uttahan is almost cleared up, I'm ready to find the next target."

Externally, Vasini naturally couldn't say this; fighting against Uttahan was his most important pretext, but his ambitions were not limited to just that.

In the Southern Royal Capital District, besides most territories belonging to the Royal Capital Mafia, the rest, over the years with the influx of immigrants from the Old Continent, had gradually been nibbled away.

Uttahan was just a part of them, the most radical group.

There were other components of the Old Continent immigrant gangs.

Among them, the largest organization was known as the Former Alliance, a group of members from various regions of the Old Continent essentially covered.

Initially, it was merely a mutual aid association for Old Continent fellow townsmen, working even cooperatively with the Royal Capital Mafia. After all, the South District was large, something even the Royal Capital Mafia couldn't swallow entirely. Although there were some conflicts and clashes later, they let it go after a few fights.

After delineating the territory, in these years it could indeed be considered peaceful.

Until the rise of Uttahan.

It's hard to say whether or not there are shadows of the Former Alliance behind Uttahan.

"You want to target that Old Xi Wen?"

Kaster looked at Vasini and asked.

The current leader of the Former Alliance is a person known as Old Xi Wen. This person is very low-key, just like his strategy, stable, and not causing trouble. He has been guarding his territory quietly making a fortune over the years.

Even when the Royal Capital Mafia and Uttahan were at each other's throats a while ago, he did nothing.

"Do you know him?" Vasini straightforwardly sat cross-legged as well.

"You want to ask if there is any connection between me, him, and the Former Alliance, right?"

Kaster sneered, effortlessly grabbed the lamb, and in an instant drained it of everything.

"If I say he has nothing to do with it, would you believe me? How do you think I got so many people under Uttahan? That old man's been around, only ever thinking about picking up what's ready-made."

"Then, where should we start?"

Upon hearing Vasini's question, Kaster wiped his mouth as if suggesting he wasn't full yet, but then he seemed to remember something and sighed.

"Rest assured, no matter how sturdy a wall is, it can always be breached."
