Taking the Mafia to the Magic World

The moment Vicente uttered his words, large chains with sharp points resembling anchors emerged from the ground and headed toward the vital points of his targets.

These four beings panicked as they felt Vicente's power and realized that the small 'rock' they thought had appeared in their path was actually a huge mountain they shouldn't have faced.

If regret could kill, the four of them would die right then and there without Vicente having to do anything.

But they didn't have that chance!

While the other three individuals behind the first attacker tried to move to defend themselves, which was difficult given Vicente's action to immobilize their bodies, the ogre floating in the air was impaled by two chains.

One of them hit him in the abdomen, running through his body to his lower back as if his body was fragile. But that was a false impression of the situation. Ogre bodies were usually powerful, something necessary to maintain their magnificent body structures.

This creature's body had virtually no resistance to Vicente's action due to Vice's strength and the fact that he could control the metals in his enemies' bodies.

Thus, he prevented the first target from doing anything that could increase its body's resistance.

With that, Vicente easily destroyed the creature's torso, with the first blow destroying the ogre's spine and intestines and the second finishing him off by piercing his back at lung level.

The others saw the grotesque scene of one of their companions having its chest sliced open from the inside out while a huge chain ran through the ogre's body, spilling the creature's internal organs and blood all over the surrounding forest.

"Fuck!" One of them 'managed' to dodge one of the chains coming towards it, reaching a point where none of its other two remaining companions could reach.

The other two suffered from Vicente's ability, one of them dying in the same way as the first, while the other lost consciousness a moment before its body exploded.

Almost the entire surrounding area up to 60 meters away from the exploding ogre was stained with blood and guts, turning the two bodies impaled by chains and the last survivor of this group of monsters red.

The remaining being felt like it was in a nightmare as it went through all this. But while it was distracted by how its colleagues had died and how it had escaped one of Vicente's blows, it felt a sharp pain in its chest.

Looking down, it realized that something was wrong with its heart and looked back to see what had hit it.

Behind it stood a small, grey-haired woman who had her right arm entirely inside the ogre's body, with her right hand pulling at the monster's heart.

The ogre screamed in pain but could do nothing after Layla ripped its heart from its body.

Jumping off the creature's back and away from it as quickly as she had attacked it, Layla saw the large creature fall backward without the strength to resist or do anything.

She turned her gaze away from the body and looked at her right arm, which was covered in blood, while her hand held a heart the size of a basketball.

Her fingers crushed the muscle as she released it, feeling the adrenaline rush of killing a being as strong as a Mid-level Mage ogre.

Vicente had helped her, deliberately missing the ogre to give her a chance to take out one of the enemies on her own.

He smiled at her and asked. "How do you feel? It's not easy to kill an ogre. But you did it easily."

"It would have been impossible without your help," Layla said because she had never killed a magical creature of the special kind, monsters.

Vicente had helped her, but he knew she could have killed the ogre alone. "Don't be so quick to say that. The way you vibrated your arm before you attacked the ogre, it could have been seriously injured even if I hadn't been here."

Layla's ability was super speed. That meant that she could move any part of her body at high speed.

By vibrating her right arm up and down at high speed, she turned that part of her body into an extremely sharp weapon.

That allowed her to pierce the ogre's back and reach its heart.

By using her speed to pull her arm out of that body, she managed to rip out her target's heart, given the immense force involved in accelerating the movement of pulling her arm out of her target's body.

Vicente had helped her by not letting the creature counter Layla's move. But her blow would have been fatal even if he hadn't intervened. The only difference if he hadn't been involved would have been that she might have had to deal with a counterattack before she could have succeeded.

She sighed as she felt tiredness spreading through her body. Unlike what Vicente had done against those targets, she had practically exhausted herself dodging the ogres and then delivering a deadly attack on one of them.

She would be able to continue fighting if necessary, but now she would need a restorative potion or some meditation time to recover.

That was different from Vicente's situation, who was relatively well after using his powers the way he had.

That was another point about the difference between talents and magic forms. Some powers consumed much more mana than others, even if they didn't have such fantastic effects. Meanwhile, the efficiency of a more talented magician was greater than that of a less talented magician when it came to using their mana for their abilities.

Vicente had done much more than Layla, but he was less tired than her and could restore his mana to its best state even without meditating or using a portion. It would only take a few hours without using his powers for him to fully recover!

Layla looked around and asked. "What are we going to do with these bodies?"

"We'll collect anything of value and leave them here," Vicente said as he looked at the bloody scene in this area where all the fighting had taken place. "As much as their bodies have some value, anywhere we take them will bring us problems I don't want to deal with right now. On the other hand, it might be interesting to leave them here."

"Why?" She didn't understand.

"We'll let other human groups find them and recognize the lurking danger."

"What if there are more of them, and they find these bodies?"

Vicente smiled. "That would be even better. It means they'll come after us!"
