Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

When the basilisk was struck by the strongest lightning that Vicente could summon and was held down by earthen hands, the young Fuller moved the metals in the surrounding area to form a sword as large as his body.

Using his electromagnetic field, he moved the sword around, giving it an acceleration to increase the damage it would do when it hit that large body.

The faster the speed of a weapon at the moment of impact, the greater the damage to the target!

While concentrating on this, Vicente jumped onto the huge body of the basilisk and wrapped his arms around the creature's neck, focusing the magnetic attraction in his hands as he tried to reach the creature's head.

'You bastard! You'll pay for aiming at me!' He thought as he felt the body struggling, gradually breaking the huge hands holding it.

Even after being struck by that bolt of lightning, capable of frying even a level 5 Acolyte about to advance a stage, that beast still had enough strength to try to escape!

Vicente felt it on his skin as he tried to manipulate the metals inside his enemy's body, waiting for his sword to reach critical speed.

After looking back, the creature felt humiliated to have a human on its back. 

It began to attack itself, trying to hit Vicente with its claws and tail.

"Aaaagh!"

Vicente felt a slap on his back as the first movement of this beast hit him behind his back.

"Fuck!"

Feeling his legs wounded by the claws that also wounded its own body, Vicente didn't want to wait any longer and jumped off the basilisk's back, aiming his sword at the spot where he was.

He wanted to decapitate the beast!

The moment it felt Vicente jump off its back, the basilisk finished destroying the two hands holding it and prepared to fly into the air.

However, just as it was about to do so, a speeding sword reached it and hit one of its legs.

Unfortunately for Vicente, the basilisk moved at the last moment, dodging a blow that would have surely injured it severely.

Still, the basilisk was struck, and its massive scales were sliced off as the giant sword pierced its body.

Vicente smiled as he manipulated the metals of the weapon to change shape inside his enemy's body!

'Gotcha!'

The organs of a powerful being would always have some correlation with the outside of their body in terms of defensive properties. But even then, the resistance of any internal organ would have to be inferior to that of the creature's skin!

With the metals under his control, Vicente entered the basilisk's body and attacked the creature's muscles from inside its own body.

The basilisk opened its mouth and let out a loud hiss, with a breath so strong coming out of its mouth that what was in front of it flew away, with even trees crumbling in the face of its power.

Vicente felt the beast's smelly breath, but the scream affected him the most. It was unbearable even for him.

He put his hands on his ears, unable to concentrate on the hit he had just done to the basilisk's body.

"Shit!" At this moment, neither of them could do anything to defeat the other, and both realized they were at a stalemate. If they continued to fight, determining the winner might take a long and violent battle.

However, despite their injuries and mutual animosity, they both realized that if they wanted to end the conflict, they would need to flee and momentarily accept a tie.

During their painful struggle, a group of royal troops from the kingdom had already detected them and were advancing in their direction!

If they kept fighting, they would face fresh adversaries in a moment, not enough time to decide the victor.

They exchanged glances and hurried away while the basilisk scampered faster, recognizing that those approaching longed to handle it the most.

But Vicente did not wait because even though he was not the group's main target, they would definitely see the herb remnants from earlier once they arrived at the location.

The small plant didn't emit strong enough signals to alert distant beings to its presence. But anyone who got too close to where it had been, any Mage or beast would realize what it was and that it had been there.

Fearing that he would have to face several enemies and deal with a third problem that day, Vicente set off without delay to the area where the goblins' second map led.

'If this map leads me to its nest, we'll settle this, beast.' He thought as he floated in the air, heading for the place the goblins had marked but already planning to stop and rest for a while on the way.

Vicente still had a potion in his spatial ring. But he didn't want to use it now and risk running out later.

No matter how badly he was injured, his current situation could be treated and healed with a few hours of rest.

So, before the nearby group of soldiers reached that place, Vicente disappeared into the woods of this deep part of The Rocky Gorge.

...

Arriving at a place marked by Vicente's battle against the herb and then against the basilisk, both 3rd stage opponents, the Millfall Royal Army Post Commander found the situation in the surrounding area strange.

As soon as he arrived with his battalion, he realized that the basilisk had been there, as well as the herb. But who the third party had been, neither he nor anyone else in his group could imagine.

There weren't many people around who could deal with two 3rd stage creatures. Aside from the strongest soldiers in the army hunting the basilisks in the area, there shouldn't be anyone with the strength to challenge such a creature!

Noting the signs of battle and how evenly matched the confrontation seemed to be, Christopher Hogan narrowed his eyes as he looked at where a dented metal arrow lay in a crater over there.

Picking it up, he sensed that it belonged to whoever had harvested the herb and fought the basilisk.

'Who was it?' After asking himself this question, he stored the arrow in his ring, imagining it would lead him to the real name behind what had happened.

After a moment, he ordered. "Soldiers, start following the footsteps of those who were here before us. Now that the basilisk has shown itself, it will be easier for us to catch it up!"

"Yes, Commander!" Everyone there, including a beautiful blue-haired level 5 woman, said at the same time.
