The next day, Vicente and Layla hadn't met, but they had communicated via a short-range communication device they had.
She warned him about the things Newton had told her to pass on to him and informed him about the two things she had in her possession that she was supposed to deliver.
Vicente wasn't surprised by Newton's approach or that such a man would soon be going to Saltstar City, a city much further away from Millfall than Ironcrest.
So he understood why Newton hadn't accepted his request right away.
What was that request? He wanted Newton to consider becoming Nina's master.
But it would be complicated for that to happen in the short term since the master and student needed to be close to each other, at least at the beginning of the student's journey. At the same time, Vicente wouldn't allow Nina to live so far away from him.
