Taking the Mafia to the Magic Worldchapter 218: the terror of numbers

As soon as they attacked the furry creatures that were acting against Julian's group, Vicente and Rory used the best of their abilities to deal with their targets.

Rory attacked just one of the level 4 creatures, using a spell based on the wind element to create a cyclone around its body, trapping it in one position while his explosions hit the area around its already wounded and weakened neck.

Rory also cast a flame spell in the direction of the other three enemies to divert their attention.

As they felt flames rising around their bodies amidst the pain in their necks, these three targets of Vicente's became even more agitated.

Even small flames could frighten these creatures, for that was their weakness, something they would avoid, like cats avoiding water.

But at that moment, Vicente forcefully moved the metal objects he had formed in the air, causing large blades to fly at those bodies with the intention of slicing them.

These metals, under Vicente's control, rapidly increased in speed as he used his knowledge of Earth physics to propel these blades even further.

Speed was power!

The faster the speed of these blades, the greater their destructive power against their targets!

Swooish!

As they reached their targets, Julian's group witnessed an incredible scene unfold before them.

When two level 1 Acolytes suddenly appeared in the area, blades the size of immature teenagers sliced through two of the four Rougarous bodies in the area as if they were made of paper!

In an instant, the two Rougarous were screaming in fear and rage, feeling the flames on their bodies but full of hatred for the newcomers. But in the next second, their bodies were cut into three pieces, and their cries were no longer heard.

The first cut had been at the neck and the second at the waist of these creatures, separating their torso, head, and legs.

One of the teachers next to Julian's eyes widened when he saw that, having blinked a second earlier and missed how these two creatures had been cut.

"What?"

The strongest of the group shouted as Julian opened his mouth so wide it looked like his jaw would hit the floor.

Two level 4 Rougarous had just been sliced like they were nothing!

Not only that, even the burning level 5 Rougarou couldn't withstand the movement of the masked man floating in the air.

When it was struck by three blades, all hitting it at the neck from different directions, the creature didn't die. Still, its neck was injured enough to show some of its bones as the crumpled steel blades fell to the ground.

Looking closer, the strongest of the group saw a small crack in the level 5 creature's neck and noted that it had narrowly missed a more serious injury from Vice's attack.

At the same time, the last level 4 Rougarou could not withstand Rory's explosive power around its neck as its entire body burned.

As Rory's flames subsided and the cyclone around his target dissipated, the men with rifles pointed in the direction of these creatures in the area saw this one's body fall to the ground, headless.

Rory had managed to use his men's shots to destroy the creature's neck, successfully eliminating the third enemy of Julian's group!

Realizing the change in their situation, the teachers were shocked. Yet, feeling there was no time to talk or wonder about the situation, they moved and quickly surrounded the level 5 creature.

"I don't know who you are, but thanks!" The strongest of the teachers said loudly. "But we need to eliminate this last one. Otherwise, it will run away and bring more Rougarous to terrorize us!"

"Let's act together," Vicente moved, floating in the air as his and Julian's entire group shifted positions, surrounding the agonized creature, who was glaring at them furiously, looking for a place to escape.

As the Rougarou tried to make a move to escape, Vicente's men were faster than it, and four of them fired their weapons, two of them hitting the creature's wounded neck.

It howled in pain as it felt very weakened after the strongest blow Vicente could deliver.

It felt ten times more pain as it received those bullets now that it was wounded.

But when the magical creature realized that ignoring these people and running away wouldn't get it far, the strongest teacher of Julian's group moved in and danced with his sword toward the Rougarou's neck.

Swooish!

Seeing that the creature was about to counterattack and possibly injure the level 4 man, Rory used a spell based on the Wind element to create a strong breeze against the Rougarou, subtly pushing it.

This subtle push was enough to cause the Rougarou to miss the fatal blow aimed at its opponent's neck.

Unfortunately for the group of humans, the teacher who had acted first also missed, hitting the void in the air.

Vicente formed a seal and cast a spell, causing the surrounding earth to trap the Rougarou by its legs, which looked down at the ground when it realized it couldn't move freely to try to attack again.

Seeing the creature that had already managed to extinguish Rory's flames glaring at him, Vicente narrowed his eyes, seeing the threat in the creature's gaze.

"Are you threatening me? If you have the power, come and do it, creature!" He clenched his fists as he focused on the metallic elements within that body and began to manipulate it to remove them, just as he would with ores.

As he did so, saying these words a bit agitatedly, everyone in the vicinity saw this level 5 creature try to back away by looking away from Vicente, something incredible to see.

But at that moment, the still-standing Rougarou felt the worst sensation of its life.

Weakened by the wounds on its body, the burns, and cuts, it was vulnerable to Vicente, who still had much to use against it.

Under normal circumstances, Vice wouldn't even be able to manipulate the metals in a level 5 creature's body. But this Rougarou wasn't in a normal situation. Surrounded by enemies whose auras oppressed it and targeted its weak points, riddled with wounds all over its body, it didn't have enough to protect itself from Vicente's movement.

When it felt a part of its being under its opponent's control, it trembled with fear and desperation.

"Ow! Ow!"

Lifting its head, it gave up the fight and let out a long howl, giving the entire group of humans in the area room to act simultaneously.

Rory once again used his innate skill while Vicente continued what he had already started. At the same time, his men fired bullets at the creature's neck, and the teachers in the area split up to prevent the creature from moving while the strongest attacked its neck.

With more than 25 people acting against it simultaneously, the Rougarou howled for less than five seconds before it met its end.
