Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 399 Cancel

"Your battle sense has greatly improved after you regained your eyesight… Your movements were no longer stiff and filled with confidence now…"

Elena commented as they ended their match…

"Well, being able to see would really change my movement."

Vincent paused for a moment before he added…

"About your Mana Bullets… I realized that they were also trying to invade my body… Isn't that a bit too dangerous?"

"Oh, you've noticed that… I just tried it a little. It should only block your Mana Flow for a bit but in any case, that's ineffective against you so I guess I just wasted my time and concentration to do that."

"I'm just lucky. I have a magic tool that protects me from that kind of attack."

"Really? I thought that it was your Aura that protected you… Hmmm… It seems that you have another challenger, Vincent." Elena suddenly said as she looked at Magnus.

Magnus' sudden arrival surprised many of them… Most of the soldiers here weren't aware of his existence but they can tell that Magnus has an indescribable aura around him…

He seems dangerous yet gentle.

"Vincent… How about a duel with me… I noticed that you guys are just playing around so I'm sure that you're not tired yet."

"Urgh… I'm thinking of resting right now." Vincent replied trying to avoid a duel against Magnus.

"What? Are you getting scared now?" Magnus taunted.

"Of course not… How about this, let's make a bet… If I win the duel, allow me to inspect your hands. If I lose, you can request something from me…"

Vincent answered. He didn't really like Magnus so he decided to put up this suggestion. He has been really curious about the implanted eyes on Magnus' palms…

Although it does look creepy, Vincent knows that it is still incredible and it would be a lie if he say that he didn't think of copying Magnus.

There was a night that he was very infuriated about his eyes and thought of copying Magnus and getting an eye implanted on him as well.

? He even read a book regarding that at the First Tower's special library and as far as he knows there are three stages on this implant… He wanted to know the stage that Magnus is in and ultimately grasp his weakness as well.

"A bet, huh… That would be fun. Alright, if I win, I want that wooden staff of yours…"

"You're still interested in my staff? That was given to me by my late grandfather though." Vincent replied.

"I'm sure he will be happy if it went to the right hands… I will take care of it for you, don't worry."

"Fine… I accept this deal." Vincent replied as he ignored Magnus' last words.

There was no way he would allow him to get his Ironbark Cane.

'Let's see how strong you've gotten, Magnus…' Vincent thought as he signaled for Elena to be the referee this time.

With her incredible senses, she should be able to properly judge the situation of the battle.

"Heh, I guess our juniors can't get a proper sleep, huh…" Shane muttered after seeing Magnus and Vincent about to fight.

"I don't think Magnus can win against Vincent right now… He hasn't fully mastered his Demonic Eyes yet. Ugh… That's not important right now, I should be looking for a new flying beast…"

Brycen replied as he was still grumbling about the death of his pet flying beast. He wanted to find a replacement for it and he felt that flying beasts that are active in the middle of the night would be the best choice…

"You can do it later… Finding flying beasts around this region should be easy. What's more important is to know whether Vincent will use those flying swords again… I want to observe it clearly this time. Aren't you curious about those flying things as well?" Shane commented.

Brycen wanted to say more but he noticed the start of the battle.

Thud!

Magnus no longer considered the eyes on his palms as his trump card.

As soon as the battle started, he immediately removed the gloves that were suppressing these implanted eyes.

The guards who had never seen anything like this had different reactions after watching this happen.

"What?"

"Is that real?"

"How is that even possible?!"

"It's cool! I wonder what can it do…"

Currently, advanced prosthetic limbs aren't even a thing in this world so seeing the creepy eyes on Magnus' palms, was quite shocking for many of them…

Nevertheless, because of the fast phase battle, the people had immediately forgotten the creepiness of this as they were amazed by how Magnus can 'cancel' all types of Mana Arts being thrown at him.

They realized that those eyes were actually capable of disintegrating Vincent's Mana Bullets, Iron Vines, and even Mental Attacks!

Vincent couldn't help but admire this impressive ability. Although he has Mana Distortion which has a similar effect, it is incredibly weaker compared to Magnus' eyes.

"So you've mastered those already…" Vincent said after seeing that even his Fatal Mind and Chaos Night didn't affect Magnus at all.

"Hmph… Not yet. If I've mastered these demonic eyes, I will have your Mana Source dried up in an instant… Speaking of which, I know you can drain my mana… Try it now!"

Magnus taunted with a proud smile on his face.

In their previous battle, VIncent's Mana Drain was very annoying and weakened him a lot.

However, after a couple of years, he's now confident that those tricks would no longer work on him.

Vincent was, of course, pumped up by this provocation as he decided to fulfill Magnus' wish…

"Alright… You have to be careful though… My Mana Drain has increased by a lot… It might even drain your life…" Vincent said which alarmed the viewers.

Of course, it wasn't really true but a complete drain of mana can be life-threatening as well.

"Bring it on!" Magnus taunted…

Vincent smiled at this as he kept his Mythril Sword in his Inventory System. Instead of immediately activating his Mana Drain, he instead pulled out his three Flying Swords…
