From time to time, Vincent will try to Transcend his item and see if he gets lucky.

There are many times that this would succeed but most of the skills that the item will get were only passive abilities…

They were Cold Aura, Affinity Boost, Damage Reduction, Magic Defense, Physical Immunity, Swift Movement, and many more.

These passive abilities were quite common and not really helpful… Perhaps, this will be very useful for new Mana Practitioners and even for those who weren't practicing mana at all.

After all, these items have passive skills and it doesn't consume their mana.

There are also some items where he could get lucky and obtain an active ability.

This is what happened to the Forging Hammer he's holding right now.

Vincent wanted to try this Torrent Smash… It is the first time he had seen this so he couldn't help but be curious about it. He also likes how the power of the Torrent Smash can change depending on the amount of mana he imbued on it.

"Alright… Let's have a duel. I won't go easy on you."

The two finally agreed as their arrival caught the attention of many guards who were sweating profusely… They seem to be training really hard even during this night and Elena found this quite admirable…
"Ahhh… Isn't that Ayla, professor Turhan's disciple? Is she also training here at this time?" Elena suddenly as she recognized the young lady who had caused quite a sensation a year ago.

Apparently, her enhanced items had attracted a lot of attention and there were many people including her clan that wanted the enhancing method.

"Ayla? Is she here?"

Vincent didn't think that Ayla would be here. He then looked in the direction where Elena was glancing and he realized that Ayla is inspecting the new crossbow weapons that their factory is developing...

Since they don't have many of these crossbows being released yet, Ayla had no choice but to borrow the soldier's issued weapons if she wanted to inspect them.

At this time, Vincent finally recalled that Calidia informed him about this and he just agreed nonchalantly... He had forgotten about it since he can't release the crossbow to the public yet.

"She's just checking the crossbows we've recently made… She's probably got some inspiration from it so let's not disturb her."

Vincent replied.

"Alright! Let's use the field… I'm still going to use my Mana Bullets just like before. You have to be careful, they're faster and stronger now… It's completely different from our previous battle." Elena proudly said.

This is also the reason why she suggested having a duel with Vincent.

After all, she still can't forget how she was defeated by Vincent during the competition years ago.

"You're still using that as your main weapon? That's impressive… Alright, I'll be careful, Elena…" For more chapters, please visit

The soldiers on night duty immediately cleared up a space for Vincent and Elena's duel. At this time, there were only a dozen of them but as they were about to start, the crowd suddenly grew larger…

Ayla had also come to watch and even offered to be the referee after noticing that no one was volunteering for the job.

"Do not kill each other! Fight!" Ayla was very concise as she announced the start of the battle.

As soon as the signal was made, Elena summoned six spinning Mana Bullets at the same time.

She no longer has to wave her hand to do this and it happened almost instantly, it seems that she has improved a lot over the past couple of years.

"Six at the same time… Isn't this multi-casting already?" Vincent was shocked at first but he immediately realized that he was wrong.

He couldn't feel the pressure of the strong Grand Magus on her…

Furthermore, although she had created six spinning Mana Bullets, she wasn't able to shoot them all at the same time.
There was at least a second of a gap between each shot.

"W-what?!"

Bam! Bam!

Two Mana Bullets hit Vincent's Mana Barrier. It happened so quickly and there weren't even any traces of bullets that can be seen.

Crash!

The third one destroyed his barrier completely…

"This…"

Vincent couldn't understand how those bullets are way too fast! It was completely different from before when he could still follow the movements of the bullets easily. The destructive power of her Mana Bullets didn't just increase but also its speed…

It seems like she was really holding a gun in her hand instead of just summoning a spell. At this rate, he will be hit by the remaining three bullets!

As soon as his erected defense was broken, he swiftly activated the Forging Hammer's skill…

Torrent Smash!

The hammer glowed with yellow light as Vincent felt confident to smash it on the next Mana Bullets! He then used the new ability that his eyes had gained after reconstructing it…

'Show it to me!' Vincent shouted in his mind as his Mana Sensitivity increased by 300%. Thanks to this, he can now sense the movement of Elena's bullets!

He smashed the fourth bullet with his hammer using all his might!

Boom!

The collision activated the effect of the Torrent Smash as it disoriented Elena for a little. The fifth Mana Bullet missed Vincent and the sixth one remained beside her…

"Amazing… Is that the effect of that Magic Tool?" Elena asked after recovering herself.

"That's correct… I want to try another method of using this Torrent Smash. Can you still continue?"

"Of course! I still have more to show!"

The two continued battling for an hour more. It was a great match as Vincent was obviously holding back and was only using his new hammer and a few Tier 1 Mana Arts.

Everyone who was watching was impressed by their display. Even Ayla had forgotten the reason why she had come here in the first place…

It was at this time that Magnus suddenly arrived.
