Chapter 34: Nowhere to Run

Vincent, who had been standing still before, posing to accumulate magic power, waited for Benjamin to remind him that Stilwell had to take out the high-level Demon Breaking Arrow.

- "Path of Flames"

Orange-red flames erupted from the soles of Vincent's feet, casting his figure like a god born out of flames, and as the flames rose, the motionless Vincent slid forward like a skateboard, leaving behind him the path of the still burning flames.

- "Low Earth Armor"

- "Electric Flint"

When he was about to slide to the end, and it was also the time when the magic damage of the flame path was at its highest, Vincent's mental power moved, and the whole person flashed red, disappearing from Stilwell's vision.

Stilwell, who raised his bow and pre-fired, was also dazzled by Vincent's series of movements like a swift wind, but what made him even more overwhelmed was that the arrow of Guiding had not yet been chosen, and Vincent, who was the target, disappeared one step earlier.

However, when the target appeared less than a second later, Stilwell's eyes were met by a blinding red glow of flames and a figure blurred in the light, as well as the burning pain of the flames on his flesh.

"Ahh

- Dragon's Flame Claw

Vincent's crossed arms slashed down towards the void in front of him, and the twin daggers in his hands quickly drew a fiery red 'x' symbol, and among the symbols that had just formed, a miniature version of the flame claw reached out from within, grabbing Stilwell's chest fiercely, and then exploded with a bang.

- Dragon's Breath

After drawing the symbol, Vincent's hands hanging from his left and right sides raised slightly, and then opened his mouth to spew out a crimson cone-shaped flame, and the flames were all stained on Stilwell's body without quenching.

- Ring of Flames

After the dragon flame was sprayed, Vincent's right foot was also raised, and then he stomped down with all his might, and an orange-yellow ring of fire about fifty centimeters high spread outward with Vincent as the center, until it was six meters away from Vincent, and then it could not be stopped, and the remaining flames formed a circle of fire, which was still burning.

Stilwell, who was swept by the flames, reached for his waist in pain, and was about to grab something to use, when Vincent's final blow followed.

- "Dragon Burn Grab"

Vincent, whose eyes were fluctuating with red flames, showed a look of pity and then vanity, and quickly folded his arms in front of his chest, and waited until the pale flames completely wrapped his hands, and then pushed forward with lightning speed, and then, a dragon-shaped claw burning with blue flames appeared in the void, and then opened the dragon claw as if he had grasped something, and shook it violently. The moment he held it, the various flames burning on Stilwell's body dissipated in an instant, and at the same time, he couldn't suppress the spurting of blood emitting a mouthful of hot white gas, and even the sound of sizzling could be heard after the blood fell to the ground.

- "Portal"

Finally, Stilwell pulled a dusty scroll from his belt and unfolded it tremblingly after Vincent had cast 'Dragon Flame Grabbing'.

A purple-black, mysterious magical light gate suddenly appeared in the clearing behind Stilwell, and when Stilwell turned around and saw that the scroll had been successfully used, he quickly turned around and staggered into the portal, not even having time to turn back and say something to Vincent.

Vincent didn't move, watching Stilwell walk through the portal, and his companion didn't even have time to take him out of the arena.

Sure enough, less than a second after Stilwell's figure completely disappeared into it, the portal suddenly disappeared as before. The bear's eyes were full of reluctance to attach himself to his master, and he looked back at the place where the portal disappeared, and the giant bear with black fur on his body suddenly roared sadly in the sky.

After the "roar" and sorrowful roar, the giant bear's eyes, which were still sad just now, instantly turned red with anger, and instead stared at Vincent with a hateful gaze, ready to move.

"Alas. ”

Vincent sighed lightly, knowing full well that only the death of Stilwell, the bear's companion and owner, would make the bear so complex and changeable.

- "Low-level Charm Animal"

Although Vincent's magic is not of a high level, it can effectively stabilize the animal's mood in a short period of time, making it enter a state similar to slightly drunk, forgetting all its previous troubles.

Soon, news of Stilwell's death came from a fiefdom owned by the Cathy family, not far from the City of God's Blessing. Everyone present did not expect that Vincent's last-minute move to let Stilwell go, which seemed to allow him to escape from the arena smoothly, still achieved the goal of a life-and-death duel and killed his opponent Stilwell.

Vincent motioned for the soldier to pull the bear down, his face still smiling with the same confidence and sunshine on his face as when he first entered the arena.

On weekdays, a contestant like Vincent, who easily wins the whole process spotlessly, will definitely win the unanimous cheers of the audience, and even some bold aristocratic ladies will also invite the contestants to spend a night with her.

However, in the face of Vincent, a player who completely fits all their minds, the perfect lover, none of them has the courage to make an invitation.

After all, Vincent had killed someone, and he had killed two people in a row, one was an Imperial soldier and the other was the heir to the throne of the Cathy family.

If it were anyone else, who dared to openly kill the heir of the Cathy family in the arena in full view of everyone, I am afraid that he would have been killed on the spot.

It's just that sitting in the VIP seat, Her Majesty the Queen on the throne did not say anything, and it was naturally impossible for others to have the courage to give orders for the Queen.

For a moment, when everyone in the audience looked at each other, not knowing what to do, Queen Jenna took the initiative to order the attendant to ask: "Dear Lord Vincent, Her Majesty would like to ask you how you did it, immune to the control trap placed under Stilwell's feet. ”

As soon as the waiter's voice ended, everyone in the audience swiped their eyes, and looked at Vincent's feet in unison.

Many of the metal spikes that pierced out of the ground, extremely sharp and dazzling with cold light, actually avoided the place where Vincent's feet landed, leaving a blank space with a radius of fifty centimeters.

- Spike Trap

A trigger-type trap that integrates control and killing, when the enemy steps into it, the spikes inside the trap will instantly burst out, pierce the enemy's soles, and knock the enemy away, of course, the trap owner and partners will not be attacked by the trap.

Vincent replied without thinking, and it was not a magic that needed to be kept secret, after all, the restrictions on its use were very large, and the mental power was consumed.

"It's a triggered defensive magic that is immune to three control skills within five seconds of castingβ€”low-level Earth Armor. ”

The attendant spoke again and asked, "Is it the magic that has many small earthy yellow shields floating all over the body?"

"That's right. Vincent replied calmly.

"The effect is good, but it's a pity that the duration is too short, and the requirements for the caster are too harsh. However, Her Majesty would like to ask you, does the high-level earth armor last for a long time?"

"Of course..."Vincent seemed to think of something, resisted the desire to say it directly, and instead spoke: "Of course, although I am currently a fourth-order magician, I believe that high-level earth armor must be stronger than low-level. ”

[Who are the undead lying to with all the words?]

The same thought crossed everyone's minds.

"Her Majesty has one last question left, may I ask you if you would like to reveal the principles of the magic you have cast before. ”

"As long as you are willing to learn, I promise that you will not hide it. Vincent didn't care.

"Thank you very much, Her Majesty cannot thank you enough for your generosity. "The squire was so excited that he even addressed Vincent to you.

As soon as the question and answer came, it seemed that Vincent's killing of Evelyn and Stilwell had been passed by in this way, and Snoop's rough voice came from afar.

"Whoever dares to kill a member of our Casey family must pay the price for death. ”

"Come on, I'll wait. Vincent also replied loudly, he, who was already murderous, would he care about the threat of a mortal man?

"It's clear that I'm the one who set a life-and-death duel with you, why did you kill Stilwell and not even give him a chance to surrender?" The squire never announced the start of the next duel, and no matter how arrogant Snoff was, he didn't dare to break the rules in front of Queen Jenna.

After listening to Snop's question, Vincent still smiled and said: "I killed Eveli and fulfilled his wish, so I want to kill two more people today to fulfill my wish, can't I?"

"It's not us who are trading with Yveli. ”

Vincent shook his head and said, "That's not something I should think about, and you don't deny that you don't know, since you are lucky and want him to die at my hands, then it is only natural to kill you as the price of angering me." ”

"It's just you?!I'm not like Stilwell who just got promoted to the sixth order, I don't know how many demons I've killed..."Snowf was halfway through his sentence when he was interrupted by Vincent lightly.

"I'm waiting, I hope you can make me fight for real compared to Stilwell. ”

"I will, I'll kill you, and use your life to honor Stilwell. ”

There was also a lot of discussion in the audience because of the conversation between the two, and the main topic was still about the cause of Stilwell's death.

It stands to reason that Stilwell managed to unfold the portal scroll and return to the family fiefdom through it, and the Casey family would not have watched him die under any circumstances.

However, Stilwell still died, in what he thought was the safest place. It can also be said that Stilwell suffered a serious injury that did not even have time to return to the family and receive treatment.

Therefore, Vincent's seemingly letting Stilwell leave is actually more like a time to completely lose Stilwell's other options.

If Stilwell hadn't unfolded the scroll and opened his mouth to surrender, perhaps the Temple Priest present could have used divine magic to heal his injuries.

But it was just a few seconds that made Stilwell completely lose his vitality.

There is nowhere to run!
