The Astral Night Dagger was aimed several meters away from Magnus' spot. However, Vincent missed this shot on purpose… He has the assassinate skill so he could still shift its direction if he wanted.

Magnus thought of this as well but because the dagger wasn't aimed at him, he wasn't too worried about it. His Mana Shield would be able to block it and even if not, he would have plenty of time to dodge.

Right now, he has to focus on controlling the Flame Dragon Lightning.

,m He used plenty of his mana to create this Fusion Art and he can't let it dissipate without defeating Vincent.

With great difficulty, he made the dragon crash on Vincent, and to make sure that he was hit, he controlled its tail as well to swipe the area where Vincent could use as an escape path…

Bang!

Vincent's body collided with his Fusion Art! Magnus felt this collision! He definitely hit Vincent! There was also an explosion of mana in the area they clashed!

He can't be mistaken, Vincent dared to block his original Mana Art with his body!

'Fool! You're too confident! Do you think you're like me?! Only ashes will remain from you…'

Magnus sneered as he couldn't help but laugh at Vincent's arrogance. As the creator of this Mana Art, he's clearly aware of how strong it was.

In truth, if Magnus was targeted by his Flame Dragon Lightning skill, his gloves wouldn't even be enough to stop it because the lightning element included in this Fusion Art is like a living being.

The lightning sparks can naturally find their way to hit the weakness of the target!

Furthermore, the Fire Dragon itself doesn't just have a destructive power but its burning effect is probably the most important thing about this. The heat created by the dragon was already enough to make many Master Magicians surrender.

If it smashed its target and triggered an explosion, Magnus was sure that only ashes would remain on Vincent's body!

He may have a Fusion Art with three elements but this is still his strongest Fusion Art as it involves lightning and fire.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the two Celestial Beings working for you…"

Magnus said as if he really was trying to be respectful of Vincent.

Clank… Clank… Clank…

"Hmm?" Magnus suddenly heard something from within the explosion.

The audience also heard this.

Apparently, the collision of Vincent's entire body and the Flame Dragon Lightning created a cloud of smoke as the floor was broken into many pieces…

From within the smoke, people guessed that Vincent was already in his last breath if he was not dead yet.

Fusion Arts were just that scary.

Just from the explosion, the Mana Barrier protecting the audience had even activated in its complete state. Furthermore, it still trembled from the shockwave and heatwave that occurred after.

Nevertheless, they suddenly heard a few gears being activated like some sort of engine before disappearing… It happened in a brief moment so they didn't mind it at first…

However, as soon as the cloud of smoke vanished, they were able to see Vincent's figure!

He doesn't seem to be hurt at all. He was still wearing his Nightbane Robe and there were no signs of burns whatsoever!

The audience can only think that it was probably related to the gears being activated within the smoke. Whatever it was, it seems that it was some kind of tool that Vincent used to stop the Flame Dragon Lightning from harming him.

"Wait! Look! Magnus is hurt!"

"Ahhh… That mysterious dagger again!"

"When did he get stabbed by that thing?"

"I didn't see that as well… How could Vincent retaliate in that position?!"

The crowd was in for another shock after seeing Magnus injured. The Astral Night Dagger had actually stabbed his thigh!

They could even tell that even Magnus was surprised. He was probably more shocked at him getting stabbed than Vincent surviving his attack.

'What… Tsk… I still underestimated this dagger, huh… This weapon is too weird… How could it pierce through my Mana Shield and strengthened clothes? It also moved extremely fast even though Vincent got hit by my strike. It was as if it wasn't being controlled by his Consciousness Energy…'

Magnus thought as he sensed Vincent's figure again. He was also able to hear the gears moving just a while ago but he wasn't able to tell what was that. Currently, Vincent appears the same in his senses…

There are just too many mysterious items this guy possesses!

At this point, anyone can probably give him this level of trouble as long as they have Vincent's magic tools! He felt that this was too unfair as he planned to destroy the dagger.

This time he made sure to lock the dagger on him.

'Let's see how you'll deal with this…' Magnus thought as he slowly gathered his mana.

***

'Hmm? I can't use the Return Skill… It was stuck?' Vincent mused after trying to use the Return Skill and failed.

The soul bound with his dagger is still active so it means that he hasn't lost ownership of it yet. The distance that they have is also very reasonable.

If it's not a problem with his connection with the dagger, it means that Magnus had done something to it.

'This is the first time this happened… I wonder how he did that…' Vincent thought as he even felt curious about how he did it. Anyway, he wasn't panicking just because one of his weapons can't be retrieved yet since he still has plenty of weapons he could pull out from his interspatial ring.

Hu~

Vincent took a deep breath as he stored his Ironbark Cane because its durability is already on a critical level after using the Soul Manifestation.

Currently, he only has his Orichalcum Sword in his hand so he took something out of System Inventory.

That's right… He's planning to use one of the items rewarded by the system after he achieved a certain number of Ascended Items.

[ Temporary Item Skill Amplification x2 ]

This item was actually rewarded after he received his [ Luxury Protection Card x3 ] which is a card that could ensure the safety of the item from being destroyed during enhancement, ascension, or transcendence in the future.

After thinking for a moment, he decided that the Orichalcum Sword may not be the best option for this so he store it in his ring and pulled out the Mithril Sword.

[ Would you like to use the Item Skill Amplification on the selected item? ]

[ Selected Item: Aura-Forged Black Mithril Sword ]
