Taking the Mafia to the Magic Worldchapter 563: the vampire's powers

The vampire ignored Layla and Casey as he walked towards Vicente, concentrating on this strange person's body.

"You are precious. I feel like two monsters are in front of me, even though I'm a vampire." The man said as he waved a hand in Vicente's direction.

A huge mana hand hovered over the area where Vicente was standing. The young man raised his arms above his head, trying to protect himself from the overwhelming pressure of this opponent.

He looked into the eyes of the vampire trying to attract him and asked. "What do you want? Why would a vampire be in this part of the continent?"

"Trying to buy time?" The vampire laughed but didn't bother to answer Vicente. "Young monster, the blood of the people in this state reminds me of a girl I had a relationship with in my youth. Being here brings back good memories."

"Just for that?"

"And isn't that enough? These things have value to beings who have lived as long as I have, young monster." The vampire smiled, each step he took towards Vicente unleashing new attacks against the young man.

"How old are you? 50? 30? Less than 20? I've been in this world for over 7,000 years. There's nothing better than tasting the blood of my beloved Eleanor's people!" He said eloquently.

Then, this vampire looked at Vicente even more maliciously while licking his lips. "But tonight, I'll have something else for dinner. I look forward to tasting your blood!"

The vampire moved quickly towards Vicente, so fast that only Layla could follow his movement.

"Shit!" She saw this and shivered in fear, afraid that this creature would easily kill or infect Vicente.

But Torne was at Vicente's side to help him. The moment the creature appeared behind the black-haired young man, Torne alerted his master.

Vicente couldn't keep up with his enemy but moved in time to avoid the creature's bite.

A vampire's bite not only gave them the ability to suck blood from their targets but also released toxins into the prey's body. Depending on the vampire's power, these toxins could do different things to the victim. But every vampire had the ability to release a toxin that would cause their prey's body to lose its ability to move.

Therefore, a vampire's bite could be their most powerful attack!

As Vicente dodged the creature's attack, the attacks he had prepared for took shape, with several spears appearing in the area and reaching the creature's body.

The vampire was quick and managed to move as he felt the attacks around him. As he felt Vicente's weapons move against his body, he laughed and easily dodged some of them.

"Your power is interesting. It will be handy to me when I suck out all your essence." The vampire said aloud.

Vampires couldn't use the powers of their victims the way those beings could in life. Such a thing would violate the magical rules of this world. But they could gain the magical affinity of their victims and eventually use powers similar to those of their victims.

That would be a weakened power, of course. Still, in the hands of any vampire, it could make a difference and give them abilities that would make them even harder to defeat.

Vicente noticed this himself as he tried to hit the creature. He was swift and had several elemental affinities, giving him the power to cast all kinds of spells.

In just 30 seconds of combat, the vampire used spells and abilities based on lightning, earth, fire, air, water, and wood, as well as some of their mixtures.

Some of them the vampire used only to protect himself or to deflect Vicente's attacks. Although his life couldn't be threatened by damage to his body, he could be restricted if his body was immobilized in any way.

In addition to defending himself and dodging Vicente's attacks, the vampire attacked Vice a few times, generating powerful residual attacks in the area that had already hampered Casey and Layla as they tried to act there.

Layla tried to find a way to help Vicente while helping Casey fight Joseph. But their plans didn't work out, and they were pressured by Casey's father, who was taking great advantage of the fact that his master was fighting over there to deal with these two.

"Don't pay attention to other people's fights!" Joseph shouted with a broad smile on his face. "You two are no match for me, so don't even think about messing with my master!"

"You wretch! You sold yourself to a vampire! I'm going to kill you, even if it takes my life!" Casey shouted while his magical form was fully active, with his third eye open on his forehead in place of his Magic Gem.

Joseph demonstrated a similar power to his son, with the same configuration of pentagrams, but with different characteristics due to the origin of their pentagrams, as well as mana density and magical understanding.

Meanwhile, Layla was running around, trying not to get caught by the vampire's or Vicente's remaining blows, while trying not to be affected by Joseph's mental powers. Her job was to support her two companions, but she couldn't find space for anything else at the moment.

As much as Vicente's group had the numerical advantage, they weren't doing so well! With all their group members under pressure, saying they were losing this confrontation would not be wrong!

Vicente then used his electromagnetic field powers on the vampire, temporarily immobilizing the creature for the first time in this battle.

"Deal with this!" Vicente said as he sent many of his artifacts flying at high speed around the area toward the creature under his control.

Chains and shackles of earth moved from the ground toward the vampire's heels, while at the same time, a bluish beam descended from the sky toward the creature's head.

Just as the creature was about to be struck, Vicente saw a malicious smile appear on the pale creature's face. His various attacks reached the creature but didn't even scratch the vampire's diamond skin.

As Vicente watched soberly, the vampire clenched one of his fists, held by a chain of earth, and everything around him that was charged with his opponent's mana disintegrated.

"Is that all you can do? If so, I'm afraid you're going to die here." The creature said as he disappeared and reappeared closer to Vicente, while a bluish-green pentagram appeared in his surroundings.
