Hitman With A Badass System-Novel

"No one has ever suffered, as you will '' Michael mumbled under his breath. Although he never showed what he's feeling inside on his face, he was burning with anger.

"Hurry up, I don't have all day" the reaper growled.

"Ghost" the word barely escaped through the gritted teeth of Claire. Anger turned her rosy skin into somewhat red.

"One…two…three" The reaper started to count as Michael gradually moved the dagger towards his neck.

"Teacher"

"Ghost!"

Olivia and Claire were startled. They trusted Michael to handle the situation yet what he was doing stirred up their fear. The disciples desperately wanted to help however they could but they saw no way of helping Ghost.

The reaper moved the dagger an inch closer to Cindy's throat. Cindy's legs turned to jelly, feeling the cold dagger against her throat. Every second Cindy spent fearing for her life made Michael want to torture the reaper more.

"Four…five"

"Now!" The moment Michael shouted, a stream of fire out of nowhere hit the deck beside the reaper. The fire momentarily distracted him,

"Lightning Dash" Michael immediately cast the spell to save Cindy. Michael was not the only one waiting for a distraction. Claire raised her hand as thorns protruded out of the floor beneath the reaper to coil around his limbs.

"Thorns of hell"

The thorns created by Claire's spell weren't strong enough to immobilize the reaper forever but it was strong enough to keep the reaper from slitting Cindy's throat until Michael reached her.

Michael pushed himself to the limit. When he reached the reaper, Michael pushed Cindy away from the dagger in one hand while clenching the dagger in the other.

"Cindy"

The moment Cindy was free of the reaper's hold, Olivia leaped at Cindy, picked her up, and then dashed away as quickly as she could. IF it was normal fire, the reaper would have cut Cindy's throat but it was not. A dragon's breath burned hotter than anything. The hot blast created when the fire stream hit the deck boiled the reaper's skin as he didn't have any defense spells cast on him. Moreover, his hands went numb after feeling a sting on his palm.

Kachak!

Michael chopped at the reaper's throat.

"Arggh (cough) (cough)" the reaper clenched his throat in agony. While he was coughing, Michael sent a few blasts of wind to the fire around them.

"Wind blast"? the blasts quickly put out the fire, making the ship dark again.

In addition to the fire, the people staring at the scene terrified were also sent flying away by the wind blasts including Claire and Olivia.

"Death Range" Michael's strength skyrocketed after he cast the death range.

"Now we dance"

Kachak!

Kachak!

Michael landed a couple of more chops on the reaper's throat. His hyoid bones were already dislocated by Michael's chops. Unless the reaper could jump to the Fusion stage and cast spells mentally, he was weak as a chicken to Michael.

"Cindy, are you alright? You poor thing, here drink this" On the other hand, Olivia embraced Cindy tightly, afraid of letting Cindy out of her reach. Cindy was still shivering when she swallowed the healing potion.

"Teacher" Olivia looked up to see Michael lifting the intruder by his neck. Due to the darkness, she couldn't see his face. However, she could feel the cold killing intent radiating from Ghost.

"Everybody back off!"

Seeing the disciples who were sleeping in the below decks running to the scene, Claire shouted at them. She did not want the disciples to be caught in the crosshairs.

"Brother" Cindy reached out her hands to Michael.

"No sweetheart, let's get away from them" Olivia rushed away to safety carrying Cindy in her arms.

Boom!

While she was running away, she felt a blast of force hitting her from behind. The force almost knocked her down. Regaining her balance, she looked over her shoulder to see Michael slamming the intruder onto the mainsail pole.

"We need to hand him over to the guardians" CLaire rushed over to Michael before the situation escalated further.

"He dies" the disciples felt a chill hearing Michael's cold words. When Claire got closer, she could smell the blood and booze from the intruder. The booze smell was so overwhelming that it made her twitch her nose.

Michael couldn't care less about the reaper's drunk status. It was obvious the reaper made a stupid move to come here without an actual plan because he was drunk. The booze slowed down the reaper's reflexes and dimmed out his ability to fight back.

Boom!

The entire ship shook when Michael slammed the reaper against the main pole.

"Son of a b-" Michael ripped off the reaper's plain wooden mask of his face. Behind the mask, an old wrinkly face stared back at Michael. His eyes were gray, no facial hair, not even eyebrows could be seen on his face.

"Arrghhh" Claire saw Michael put his hand straight into the old man's mouth.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" the old man frantically shook his body as he was being electrocuted. Claire was unable to make up her mind whether to help the old man or not.

Some of the daredevil disciples quickly lit the torches on the deck to see what Michael was doing to the old man in clear light. The torches radiated a bright orange light, revealing everything to them. They saw Ghost standing in front of an old man with his arm inside the old man's mouth.

The man kept wiggling to escape, his gray eyes almost turned red in agony.

All of a sudden Michael pulled his arm out of his mouth as blood splattered on the ground.

"Is that?"

"Im gonna puke Arrhh!"

"Oh my god!"

"Argggggg!"

When they saw Michael's hand which was dripping the old man's blood, their faces turned green. Some of them immediately threw up on the spot while many female disciples screeched like banshees. It was all because of what they saw in Michael's hand, the old man's bloodied tongue.

"Hrrrggghhhh" the old man's muffled cry of agony sent chills running through their spines. CLaire was nauseated while Olivia quickly closed Cindy's eyes but she knew it was too late. Olivia felt Cindy's body start to shiver.

Michael however didn't stop there.

"I'm starting to get creative. Can you guess what I'm about to do next?" Michael let go of the reaper's neck as he fell down to the floor. The old man wiggled like a fish out of the water in excruciating pain.

"Teacher stop!"

"Ghost listen"

Olivia and Claire came running to Michael, hoping to bring back Ghost from his rampage.

"Oh I forgot you got no tongue" Michael devilishly chuckled before grabbing the reaper by his collar.? All of the reaper's effort to wiggle himself out of Michael's grab turned futile. Michael dragged him from the main pole on the ship's center towards the captain's cabin.

The old man left a trail of blood pouring out of his mouth. Claire was running behind Michael to make him stop. Olivia on the other hand kept Cindy's eyes closed. She herself started to fear Ghost like this. The always calm smiling youngster was nowhere to be found. Instead, she was looking at a cold-blooded monster.

The disciples were staring at Michael, their faces were pale as white paper.

"Where the hell is Nightmare?" Claire looked up the sky searching for Nightmare but he was nowhere to be found.

"Hrggghhhh"

When they reached the captain's cabin, Michael slammed the reaper against the wooden wall. His body fell down, he tried to crawl away from Michael.

"Stop!" Claire screamed but it was too late as Michael stomped the reaper's on the knee.

"HRRRHHHHHH!" Michael's stomp shattered the reaper's knee cap. There were pieces of broken bones sticking out of his leg. Without saying anything Michael turned back, walking towards the cabin door.

While Ghost was in the captain's cabin doing god's knows what, Claire approached the bloody reaper. She squatted beside him before taking a healing potion out of her space ring. Unlike Michael, Claire wanted the intruder to be handed over to the guardians so they could find out why he was on their ship in the first place. If Ghost killed him, there was no way of finding out the answer. As a sect leader, she wanted to know whether he was targeting only Ghost or plotting to harm the entire sect.

"Who is he Claire?" Olivia came running. She asked Claire in a husky voice.

"I don't know, where is Cindy?"

"Safe, with the disciples" Olivia's eyes were fixed at the cabin's door.

"What's he gonna do?"

"Torture" Olivia's heard Michael's voice. The door to the cabin opened once again to reveal Michael. He walked out of the room carrying a roll of rope.

"Hrrggghhhhhhh" the reaper's eyes opened so wide as it looked like they were about to pop out of the sockets.

"Ghost stop"

"Teacher"

The two ladies tried to stop him but at the same time, their feet walked backward in subconscious fear.

"Look at you, completely healed up" Michael grinned, not the kind one or his usual one, it was radiating murderous intent.

"Let's fix that up" Michael lifted the reaper by his neck once again to beat the crap out of him. While holding the reaper in the air in one hand, Michaels started to punch repeatedly in the chest region, breaking his ribs one by one.

"Teacher stop!" she grabbed Michael's hand.

Olivia couldnt keep watching Michael torture the old man. If he had killed the old man, Olivia would have understood but torturing him like this seemed wrong to her.

"Wind blast" Michael blasted away Olivia when she tried to stop him with a blast of wind.

"No one, I mean no one can lessen the pain im about to inflict on you"
