Chapter 502 Astral
Archie\'s command was like a light at the end of the tunnel…
They didn\'t come here for a life-and-death battle after all. They only followed the Paragons because they have no other choice.
However, at this moment, their survival is their top priority… They
The Mythical Beast Dragon is already something they don\'t want to deal with and the young man who rode it was even more mysterious…
They noticed that this man didn\'t even feel threatened by the presence of the two Paragons! He was more difficult to deal with than they have expected.
Swoosh~ Swoosh~
The Martial Artists under Archie\'s command immediately fled as soon as they heard his order…
The Paragons felt conflicted about this since even though they wanted them to stay, they also knows that they wouldn\'t be able to help that much. At most, they can only sacrifice their lives for a moment of distraction.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Colm used three more Echo Bursts as he targeted Vincent… He believes that as long as the man was shaken by his attack, the floating book would also stop suppressing their movements.
"Good… Use your skills recklessly…" Vincent muttered as he dodges the havoc created by the Echo Bursts…
He even has to move away since the injured members of the Slayer Squad might be affected. Nevertheless, he was happy to see the two Paragons frantically chasing him and using their powerful Martial Arts at the same time.
They\'re definitely spending plenty of mana in every technique they use.
"Stop jumping around and face us!" Colm was infuriated at the fact that Vincent was only using a normal movement technique to dodge their attacks…
Colm already noticed that although his movement is being restricted by the floating book, he was fine using Martial Arts that can affect their surroundings…
Right now, they\'re planning to wait until the book loses its power since they know that it\'s impossible to maintain its mana consumption for long… especially if it affects a very wide range of suppression.
However, to their surprise, their realized that their Mana was actually the one being consumed faster!
As someone who had reached the title of Paragon, they were confident with the amount of energy in their bodies… They should be able to use a hundred high-grade Martial Techniques before feeling exhausted.
Now, however, they have barely used 30 Martial Arts of varying grades and they\'re already sweating a lot!
\'What\'s going on?\' Colm was confused as he halted his attacks and focused on his defense against the pulling force of the book.
It wasn\'t consuming much energy so he knows that he can maintain his stance for an hour before noticing the toll on his body…
At this point, even Ariana realized that she had weakened quite a lot…
"Retreat! Move away from him!"
Suddenly, they heard Archie\'s voice from afar commanding them on what to do…
This person had already gone out of the Mana Drain\'s range so he was able to realize that difference of being near to Vincent!
At first, they thought that it was just a side effect of his Soul Domain. After all, they know that each domain has different quirks, and messing with their energy might be Vincent\'s Soul Domain.
However, they were able to easily recognize the difference between his Soul Domain and Mana Drain after getting out of his range!
"What?! Do you think that we can\'t kill this person?!" Colm shouted back in anger… He thought that Archie and his team were just too scared…
On the other hand, Ariana swallowed his words since Colm already replied.
Although she also wanted to retreat and make another plan, she felt that it was already too late…
Furthermore, after Vincent heard Archie\'s advice, he actually charges at them as if he was afraid that they would really flee!
In addition to that, the man also ordered his Mythical Beast to kill the remaining Martial Artists out of his range!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Vincent engaged in close combat against a Martial Artist! This is normally a suicidal move since Magicians wouldn\'t normally last once hit by a Martial Technique.
Nevertheless, Vincent was able to fight thanks to the floating armor and his accessories with so many Passive Abilities…
Even if he gets scratched or injured, he can easily heal himself.
The lighting and vibration attacks of the two were also nullified by his Legendary Magician Robe!
"Y-you—How are you doing this?!"
Colm was shocked that a magician is capable of exchanging a few moves with a Paragon like him.
He thought that once Vincent got closer and received his Martial Arts at point-blank range, he could easily kill him!
In the meantime, Vincent stealthily pulled out his Astral Night Dagger!
This is a weapon only used for assassination because of its item skills but due to his recent successful transcendence, it gained a really powerful ability!

The price to pay was a bit too high considering he has no ability to repair a legendary-grade item. Aside from that, 100 points were already deducted from the dagger because of how he was using this for quite some time.
Anyway, he has no intention of underestimating his opponents right now… They are Paragons who have malicious thoughts so they have to be eliminated!
With a flick of his fingers, the small dagger vanished from his hand… It ignored the space or the distance between him and Colm as it immediately stabbed Colm\'s heart!
