Taking the Mafia to the Magic World-Chapter 913 Escape from the Citadel
913 Escape from the Citadel
'What am I going to do now? If this is true, I won't have time to be with my family, to see Annie grow up, or to be with my women.' Vicente looked at the ground as he felt lost, his heart beating fast as sweat poured down his body.
His stomach ached and for the first time in his life, he felt a minor panic attack, not liking what he had just heard.
But he couldn't help believing everything Tenglin had told him. It made sense. Indigo was a sign of the 7th stage for the creatures on the continent. And everyone who became a Magus somehow disappeared when they went to the Supreme Continent.
Vicente didn't think the power behind it would take pity on him and his family and allow him to stay behind for a while. He would surely be summoned to the Supreme Continent as soon as one of his pentagrams reached the indigo grade.
'They are right. I feel that something supernatural is already watching us.' the voice of the Throne of Darkness consciousness drew Vicente's attention to the space where Torne had lived for a long time.
'We will leave this continent behind when we reach the indigo grade. If you hadn't absorbed the green pentagram, it would have already happened.'
'Did you know that from the beginning?' Vicente asked.
'Not exactly. I knew it would open new doors for us, but I'm like all intelligent life forms. I learn things through experience.
I had a feeling before, but it wasn't until we passed the Majestic Treefrog Grove that I had this realization.'
Vicente took a deep breath with his eyes closed, his fists clenched and his expression not good.
"I see," he whispered, but without shirking his responsibility. "Unfortunately, I don't have an option. If I don't get stronger, I'll die or I won't be able to kill the enemies."
That was the problem. If he stood still and tried to retreat, he wouldn't be able to deal with the darkest enemy. But if he became stronger, he would be closer to losing contact with his loved ones in Polaris Realm indefinitely.
He certainly needed to absorb his 11th pentagram before he risked saying goodbye to his family!
"Thank you for the warning. I'm going to take some time off to see my family and produce robotic armor to help them in my future absence. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to end the vampire threat on my own."
"Yes. I also think so," the Qilin said, preferring Vicente to be able to at least eliminate at least the 6th stage vampires. Without these creatures, the situation on the continent would more or less return to what it was before The Purification—with no 6th stage vampires. frёeωebɳovel.com

But would Vicente be able to hunt them all down before he reached the indigo grade in one of his pentagrams?
Vicente felt his calm returning, his mind very clear about what he had to do. He didn't want to leave, but he was a realistic man. If there was no alternative, he could only work to leave his family in the best possible situation.
"I will do my best to kill as many 6th stage vampires as possible, especially Demien Bloodthorne. I'll try to prepare a plan to leave a replacement of mine in a position to absorb his blood and become the new bastion of humanity. But there are no guarantees."
"Count on us for whatever you need, Vicente. As long as we are alive, even if we are not on your side, we will fight to contribute to your goals," Qiang said in a deep tone, truly committed to helping the human in front of him.
The others nodded in agreement, showing they thought the same as the Hippogryph.
"Thank you, everyone. But now it's time to face our demons." Vicente glanced back at the vampire camp, sensing the time for their departure. "I will use my 11 creations so that we can escape the battle they want to engage us in. If we escape, we'll think about what to do after that."
With these words from Vicente, the four of them followed him out of the city, which they thought was less guarded and further away from the strongest enemies.
The city's defensive formations only limited the entry of monsters and Dark Path beings, so there were no entrances or exits to the Citadel. All Vicente and his party had to do was fly in the direction they wanted to go.
But they couldn't escape that easily. With the seal cast by the vampires, they couldn't teleport from within the city and would have to fly a few dozen kilometers before reaching an area not guarded by the vampires.
As soon as they started moving south, the enemy watchers rushed to alert their leaders, drawing the attention of the Archmage's vampires and the most powerful monster in the area.
These creatures saw the 16 creatures flying around the Citadel and heading south, the place least guarded by their forces.
However, at the level they were at, each of these beings could move fast enough to reach any of the Citadel's exit points.
They flew off in the same direction, while their troops moved more slowly, preparing to support them in the coming battle.
"Prepare for an enemy escape!" One of the 6th stage vampires shouted, "The enemy knows he can't face us head on. He will try to escape. If I'm not mistaken, he's reached the 6th stage and must be thirsting for a new pentagram."
The weaker ones in the area understood, some heading for escape points, others preparing to launch long-range attacks and help put pressure on the enemies and make it harder for Vicente to escape.
'What a time to escape, huh? My supreme leader could emerge from his seclusion at any moment, but right now, you decide to leave the Citadel.' One of the strongest elders of the vampire coalition thought, his gaze fixed on the figure of the black-haired man flying out of the Citadel.
When Vicente and his companions left the area protected by the Citadel's formations, the enemies would already be within reach.
If they would manage to escape, it wouldn't be before at least one clash!
