Hitman with a Badass System

Chapter 62 - Midnight Slaughter



"Diddle... diddle..." Above Michael and the assassins Gaya was watching the scene through the roof. Although she couldn't see the scene below clearly because of the pitch black darkness, the lightning bolts around Michael's hand provided enough light for her to see the assassins taking out their daggers.

"We..are...so" Even though they were stunned to see their cultivation level suddenly drop by 5 levels, they refused to believe a Body Refining stage, level 5 cultivator could harm them in any way. Plus, they thought they had the advantage in numbers.

"Little" when the last word of his killing slogan escaped his mouth, he disappeared from the place he was standing.

Pulch!

The assassins saw one of them got stabbed by Michael. The one who got stabbed quickly tried to grab Michael before he turned into a lightning bolt and disappeared again.

"He's fast!"

"Watch your backs!"

Michael previously aimed his knife to stab the assassin in the heart but he was able to see his movements and dodge at the last movement. Yet, instead of being shocked, a small grin appeared on Michael's face as he discovered the extent of his Lightning Dash spell's current capabilities.

"90 seconds..." he dashed around the assassins while counting in his head.

"One! behind "

Pulch! pulch!

Michael used his full speed and stabbed one assassin in the shoulder and the neck. The pain made the assassin a little slow and when he tried to dodge again, he felt an intense pain in his neck and his legs dropped to the ground.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body Strengthening stage, level 10 cultivator. The reward is 40,000 experience points as well as 1000 Badass points.]

[Ding! The Host has successfully killed a powerful cultivator above his level for the first time. The reward is one gift box!]

"Attack him together!" After seeing the comrade falling, the rest of the assassins circled Michael and leaped at him to attack at once.

"Why isn't he moving?" From above Gaya saw Michael standing there without dashing away as the Assassins got closer and closer.

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Because the assassins leaped at him at once, Michael easily grabbed one assassin by the hand and continuously stabbed him in the chest.

"Die!'' However, when the rest of the assassins stabbed Michael in the back, their daggers couldn't get to his body and they were stopped by a light blue shield around Michael's body.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body Strengthening stage, level 10 cultivator. The reward is 40,000 experience points as well as 1000 Badass points.]

"60 seconds...four to go..."

Whoosh!

The remaining four assassins were momentarily stunned when they saw the shield. They quickly tried to move out of Michael's grab and they were able to get away except one. From above Gaya fired the grappling hook at one of the assassins as the grappling hook hit the assassin in the back and slowed him down. Michael used the assassins' momentary clumsiness and grabbed him by the neck from behind.

Then without wasting a second, he slit the assassin's throat and kicked his body towards the remaining three assassins.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body Strengthening stage, level 10 cultivator. The reward is 40,000 experience points as well as 1000 Badass points.]

"50 seconds...Ignitia"

The three assassins dashed away from the body as they didnt want to be slowed down. Yet, when the body got closer to them, the body exploded and the bits and pieces splashed on their faces.

"Awesome!" Gaya never expected Micheal would blast the dead body and use the blood and body parts as a distraction.

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

Because the splattered blood hit them on their eyes which were the only part uncovered by their costume, their vision got blurred and two assassins instinctively moved their hands to wipe off the blood.

Michael used this opportunity and stabbed both of them in the chest using the Lightning dash spell to speed his movements.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body Strengthening stage, level 10 cultivator. The reward is 40,000 experience points as well as 1000 Badass points.]

In his rush, he stabbed one in the throat and ended the life but the second assassin survived because he was stabbed through the ribs. Michael didn't stop his movements to end his life but turned his focus on the last assassin who remained without suffering any wounds.

Pulch!

Pulch!

When Michael and the last assassins were dashing and fighting, Gaya used the grappling hook to hit the assassin who survived Michael's attack.

The Grappling hook was not a weapon and it was certainly not enough to kill him but she kept firing it at the assassin's wound to keep him from escaping or conjuring a spell.

"AH!"

The last assassins saw Gaya torturing his comrade from above and wanted to end Michael's life soon.

"30 seconds..." The last assassin proved troublesome as he was able to dodge and evade Michael's knife and Lightning bolts.

"DIE!" The assassin's hands suddenly glowed and his dagger let out an unearthly humming sound.

"Ah"

"Human!" Gaya shouted seeing Michael's body sent flying by the last assassin. Michael's body hit the nearby wall and dropped to the ground.

The assassin wasted no time and dashed at him to finish him off quickly.

"(cough) (cough)" The assassin saw him struggling to get up and coughing. He thrust his dagger straight between Michael's eyes,

Pulch!

Just when his dagger was about to touch Michael's skin, he coughed up blood and experienced a sharp pain in his chest. He slowly looked down at his chest to see Michael's dagger sticking out of his chest.

Pulch!

Pulch!

Pulch!

"You..." When the assassins realized that Michael was faking his injury, it was too late as he coughed up more blood.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body Strengthening stage, level 10 cultivator. The reward is 40,000 experience points as well as 1000 Badass points.]

"I was just faking with you" Michael chuckled and withdrew his knife from the assassin's chest. These were the words the assassin heard before closing his eyes.

"10 seconds"

"Where do you think you're going?!"

Boom!

When Michael turned around to deal with the last assassin, he saw Gaya land directly on his back.

While Gaya was crushing the assassin with her knees, he activated the lightning dash and stabbed the assassin in the back, shoulders, legs, and arms. Michael kept stabbing him in the body but he avoided going for the kill as he wanted to ask one last question.

Considering the assassin lost most of his blood and suffered many wounds, he didn't worry about the Devil's breath time limit.

"You're dying but I can still hurt you," he said and stabbed the assassin in the collarbone.

"Who hired you?"

"Kill...me" the assassin stuttered. Gaya punched him in the face while Michael twisted his knife to inflict more pain.

"Usually, I don't like torturing but if you don't give me an answer, I will make you suffer"

"AHHHHH!" the pain he felt when Michael twisted his knife was unbearable and the assassin blurted out the name in agony.

"Ja...ne..."

"Thank you" Michael took his knife from the assassin's collarbone and stabbed him right between the eyes to end his suffering.

"Let me deal with the bodies first" Michael exited the system. He conjured a flame in his hand and saw his walls, carpet, and his sofas were painted in red with the assassins' blood. Fortunately, he knew a potion that would get rid of the bloodstains but if he wants to get rid of the bodies, he had to get his hands dirty.

"I'll go to the forests and bury the bodies, you stay here" Other than burying the bodies, he had another thing in his mind which he didn't want Gaya to know.

"Aren't you going to inform the sect?"

"No, they must not know what happened here. Until I return, don't let anyone"

"Who would come at this time of the night?"

"But if they do"

"Yeah, yeah, I won't let anyone in. Don't take too long, I can't sleep if the house reeks of blood" Gaya twitched her nose and pointed out the mess he made.

"I know a way to clean all this blood but first, I have to deal with the bodies"
