As Vicente's group prepared for the impending battle, the seven High-level Paragon vampires and the three Advanced Archmage monsters launched their attack. Each of these powerful foes narrowed their eyes, focusing intently as ten glowing pentagrams emerged from Vicente's body, a testament to his growing power.
