Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

892  Decisive Moment!

As 5th stage vampires closed in on him, Vicente's face contorted into a mask of horror, sensing ominous signs that sent a chilling shiver down his spine.

'Don't tell me that...' He immediately concluded that today was the day of the formation of his pentagram, and that the group led by a High-level Paragon vampire would come to this place not for his essence, but for his head!

'So it was those bastards! They were after us!' Vicente's body turned invisible as he thought. Various weapons in the area attacked the vampires, while the Throne of Darkness formed shadow demons behind the enemies.

The vampires felt Vicente's suppressive powers for a moment, and were stopped in mid-air as he disappeared.

But against six 5th stage vampires, Vicente still couldn't force them to stop for more than a few seconds.

As soon as he escaped the enemies and his allies appeared in the air to attack them, the six vampires broke the resistance under their bodies and moved in defense against the enemy attacks.

Elmo and Lonan immediately teamed up against a Low-level Paragon vampire, while Bonfi and Tenglin teamed up against another creature of the same level.

The three human Beginner Archmages teamed up against the third Low-level Paragon, while Victor and Acidbelly used their powers against one of the two Mid-level Paragons.

Elmo moved against the other Mid-level Paragon, giving Vicente room to deal with a fourth enemy Low-level Paragon before attacking the other vampires.

In the formation they set up against the enemies, they could only hold them off for a few minutes at most. Vicente was the key to victory. He would have to help them kill these enemies one by one, otherwise they wouldn't be able to win this tough battle!

Vicente immediately burned through Torne's mana as he moved against the first of his targets, the Dragon's Amulet increasing his strength, speed, and endurance.

He let the regenerative power of his amulet work on himself and his allies as he moved, worrying about injuries and the arrival of more enemies.

Something told him that if he could handle this group, he would have some peace until the cyan pentagram formed. Still, he couldn't help but be cautious as he sliced through space with a large, dark trident.

A lightning giant formed behind Vicente, its mental silhouette striking out at the most vulnerable foe in its path, the first step for his group in countering today's threat.

The Low-level Paragon under Vicente's attack couldn't do much to defend itself. Feeling Vicente's abilities affect him more than the others, he could only watch as a black-golden trident passed through his body.

Vicente was stronger today than when he fought in the nearby Majestic Treefrog Grove months ago. He eliminated the Low-level Paragon creature with a single attack!

Sealing this opponent's body so as not to waste the precious vampire blood, Vicente moved against Elmo's enemy, flying while invisible until he reached his opponent's back.

Elmo's roots limited the creature's space, preventing it from escaping and causing it to momentarily express its irritation on its pale face.

As much as Elmo could not defeat this creature alone, as an Intermediate Archmage, it wouldn't be easy for the vampire to escape or risk his life quickly.

With Vicente's Throne of Darkness pressing down on the area and the Shadow Demons attacking the five vampires, the Mid-level Paragon facing Elmo was not in a good position.

He would need at least a minute of combat to change the pace of his fight and gain some leverage. But before that could happen, Vicente appeared behind him and attacked him at close range.

'Shit!'

He could do nothing as he felt his body paralyze for a moment before Vicente's brutal attack tore through his chest.

"Aaaaagh!"

A muffled cry of pain erupted from the creature's mouth as the darkness of Vicente's powers penetrated his body, consuming his soul like flames that only cease when they have completely consumed their target.

The Mid-level Paragon's eyes ceased to function, becoming opaque moments after Vicente removed his trident and dropped his body to the ground. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Elmo didn't hesitate to shift his focus on assisting the three groups against the three remaining Low-level Paragons, leaving Vicente to join Victor and Acidbelly against the last Mid-level Paragon in the area.

"You will pay for this with your life, Vicente Fuller! When my master leaves his retreat, all the deaths you have caused will be avenged!" The creature said under the pressure of these two powerful opponents, knowing he had no chance.

He hadn't known that Vicente's group was so strong and the Dark Path magicians from before would die so easily. But even so, his move had had its value. Now, at least one high-ranking elder of the vampire coalition was moving to this place with reinforcements.

Would Vicente and the others flee? He didn't know, but if his group helped to hold off these enemies for a few minutes at this place, it would be enough for his superiors to have better tracking material than what they had gotten from months of investigation.

Vicente said nothing as he attacked the creature, feeling his mana running low, a sign he couldn't hold out much longer.

But once he killed the remaining Mid-level Paragon, it would be easy for his companions to deal with the other three superior vampires.

He attacked with what was left of his strength, decapitating the Mid-level Paragon vampire's head with a single swing of his dark-imbued weapon.

Another vampire's aura vanished, leaving only three beings fighting, while Vicente fell to the ground exhausted, his throne and magnetic powers retracting into his body along with his pentagrams.

The three Low-level Paragons felt the restriction of the enemy below them diminish, but by then they were in a no-win situation. With ten opponents surrounding them, each in better condition than the three of them, it would only be a matter of time before the battle ended with Vicente's team winning!

Vicente drank a restorative potion as he stepped back from the battle, looked up at the sky. He saw the darkness of the night beginning to cover the horizon.

At that moment, he sensed something different in the direction he had seen the cyan pentagram formation in the Divine Dragon Matrix.

'It is time for it to form.' A smile appeared on his face as he clenched his fists.

But deep in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder if the deaths of 24 Dark Path magicians and three 5th stage superior vampires had anything to do with the formation of the Dark Path's cyan pentagram...
