Hitman With A Badass System-Novel

Chapter 590: Fusion Stage level 4

Michael surprised himself by killing a mighty Fusion Stage cultivator like he was nothing. However, the killing came with a shock that he wasn't aware of yet. The protectors and soldiers looked pale and shivered after witnessing Ivon's sudden death. Even Eve's heart shuddered seeing Ghost's power. She was glad Ghost was on her side.         

    

On the other hand, Gaya conjured a fireball and snapped her fingers, turning the ball of fire into a long arrow. Considering she was in her Aelia persona, she could not use the powerful spells in her arsenal. Almost all her spells utilized her poison which radiated an emerald green mist. Fortunately, the weakest spell like the fire arrow, could kill the sick soldiers.     

"You should blow off some steam by killing them," Gaya advised Eve. Gaya's voice pulled Eve out of her shock.      

"Ah yeah," Eve nodded. She felt no remorse or pity for the House Rottgards soldiers after she witnessed Rottgard massacring her family members.     

After killing Ivon, Michael put the fear of god in everyone's hearts. Moreover, the Fear toxin terrorized their brains by enhancing their fear several folds. In a blink of an eye, Michael appeared before a protector and grabbed him by his neck.      

"Grrrgghhhh!" the old man punched Michael's hand and kicked him in the gut, trying to escape his hold. Yet all of his attempts yielded no fruits. Finally, with a simple flick of his wrist, Michael took out the jade dagger he used to carve the elf's decayed body.     

Pulch!     

Michael plugged the dagger as deep as he could through the old man's rib cage. The blood splashed across Igor's face, snapping him out of shock. Still, Igor couldn't even take a step toward the black-masked monster who killed his uncle in a blink of an eye.  Igor knew he should feel anger and fury but surprisingly, he didn't feel anything. Instead, his hatred and disappointment towards the protectors and his uncle reached a point that Igor couldn't care less about them.     

However, Igor hated dying in the throne hall. He had so much to live for. Despite the obvious death, Igor sighed and decided to die like a man then beg them for mercy. The elder who got stabbed was just at his arm's length, but Igor felt no urge to save him. Instead, Igor stared at the dark-robed figure stabbing the elder again and again and again until the elder's white robes turned red. It was not a kill but a statement. Seeing the brutality, the rest trembled in overwhelming fear which caused some of them to lose consciousness and hallucinate.      

Michael dropped the dead protector down and stomped the head, crushing the skull under his feet.     

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Fusion stage, level 2 Cultivator. The reward is 750,000 Experience points and 10,000 Badass points]     

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up. The current level is the Fusion stage Level 2!]     

The fear tightened Igor's muscles as his legs refused to move even though the killer was walking toward him.      

"Shit shit shit," Igor panicked and tried to step back only to fail. Taking a few steps, the killer reached him. However, the killer walked past him instead of killing him as Igor expected.

Boom!     

On the other hand, Eve leaped into the air, and in the mid-air, she flicked her wrist as a golden spiked mace materialized in her hand. She brought down the mace upon the Soul Refining stage guard. The poor soul tried to cast a spell to leap away as his body and mind were trained to cast spells. But he forgot that he had lost his ability to cast spells. As a result, he didn't move an inch until Eve brought down the spiked mace on his head.     

The golden mace crushed his skull as bits and pieces scattered across the hall, and a few chunks ended up on some soldiers' faces. Some soldiers outright fainted on the spot and got stepped on by Michael on his way to the two protectors. Seeing Michael walking toward them, the two protectors lost their courage to fight. Instead, they turned their backs on Michael, running towards the door as fast as they could.     

"Move!"     

They shoved off the soldiers who remained in their path. Not in a million years would they have imagined running for their life. But, despite the overwhelming fear, Igor focused his gaze on the killer, trying to figure out his cultivation stage.      

"Huh?" Igor got confused as no matter how hard he focused, he couldn't see the cultivation stage of the killer.      

"Argh!" His focus on the killer got broken by the fire arrow that flew past his face and penetrated the soldiers who stood around him. The arrow didn't stop at killing a few but flew through the soldiers, ending their lives. In a few moments, the shiny marble floor was flooded with blood, and the throne hall became a tomb for many.      

The soldiers didn't stand a chance against Eve, let alone Michael and Gaya. While controlling the fire arrow and killing the soldiers, Gaya admired Eve's persistence. Regardless of the plague, Eve pushed herself to the limit and caused havoc among the soldiers like a killing machine. Suppose anyone in Eve's shoes had been bedridden. The plague turned the Fusion Stage cultivators into weaklings. Yet, it couldn't stop Eve, who was only a Core Strengthening stage warrior.     

Of course, Eve drank several vials of healing potions, but Gaya knew more than the healing potions. It was persistence and endurance that fueled her.      

Boom!     

Boom!     

Boom!         

    

Eve swung the mace without any finesse or technique in all directions. The soldiers screamed and begged for mercy, but Eve was in a raging mood.     

She kept hitting the soldiers mercilessly as she vented all her rage and hatred upon the soldiers. Meanwhile, Michael caught the two Fusion Stage protectors who banged the door like crazy.     

  At that moment, Gaya and Eve killed almost a third of the soldiers in the hall, including the two Soul Refining stage cultivators. Igor witnessed the brutal massacre and the fall of his house and stood still. He was weak and scared to do anything.      

"Didn't you two want to wipe out the Voldigards a few moments ago?" Michael whispered in their sears as their bodies went rigid. The protectors slowly turned around.      

For a few seconds, Michael just stared at them. Afterward, Michael just grabbed their heads and smashed them against the door the protectors tried so hard to open. Michael kept going until the two protectors lost their heads, and he received the notifications from the system.     

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Fusion stage, level 3 Cultivator. The reward is 750,000 Experience points and 10,000 Badass points]     

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up. The current level is the Fusion stage Level 3!]     

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Fusion stage, level 3 Cultivator. The reward is 750,000 Experience points and 10,000 Badass points]     

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up. The current level is the Fusion stage Level 4!]     

After reaching Fusion Stage level 4, Michael felt a warm wave soothing him from behind. The feeling made him smile and close his eyes. When he looked up with his eyes closed, the throne hall grew a bit darker for a moment, and the chandeliers flickered. Fortunately, the phenomenon disappeared before Eve could notice the change.     

Michael felt his power growing within him. Eve creased her brows seeing Ghost standing still without moving. No one dared to stay close to him.     

"Please don't kill me!"     

"NO!"     

"Have mercy!"     

"Lord Igor!"     

"Save us!"     

The remaining soldiers went to their knees and began begging for mercy. Some even grabbed Igor's legs, pleading with him to save them. But unfortunately, Igor had no power or will to save them. Instead, Igor was stuck in a state of utter fear and shock. On the other hand, Michael remained with his eyes closed until the screams and cries died down, and the hall became deadly silent.

At that moment, they only spared Igor's life but scarred him for life. It would take years for Igor to come out of the trauma caused by the three of them.     

"Show us the portal to Sil Alari," Gaya grabbed Igor by his neck and asked. Despite her cold tone, Igor said no word. Instead, he looked like his mind was somewhere else.     

"HEY!" Gaya slapped Igor to bring him out of shock.      

"Where is the portal to Sil Alari?" Gaya asked again, shaking Igor by his collar.     

"Portal…Sill Alari…" Igor mumbled,     

"Leave him. I know where it is," Michael finally opened his mouth. He located the portal through the drones and Spyders. So they had no need to threaten Igor. Michael spared Igor not because he wanted to know the portal's location but because he wanted Igor to consider joining Voldigards. It was apparent Igor hated the protectors and the House Lord. Now that he had killed them, Michael wished to rope Igor into joining Voldigards.     

Michael turned around and slowly walked towards Igor. When he reached Igor, he just patted Igor on the face.     

"House Rottgard is no more. Now you are finally free,"          

    

Michael then placed his hand on Igor's blood-soaked chest.      

Boom!     

Suddenly a powerful gust of wind shot Igor away onto the wall behind. The force of Igor hitting the wall made him lose consciousness. After Igor collapsed on the ground, Michael looked around at the dead bodies in the hall.      

"An eye for an eye," Michael stated, feeling no pity. Every soldier they killed had blood on their hands. A few days ago, they massacred the Voldigards. At that time, the soldiers of House Rottgard didn't show any mercy to Voldigards. So why should Michael show them any mercy?     

Michael only killed the strongest of the Rottgards and spared the rest so they could spread the word about what happened to them.      

"Let's go," Michael walked away from the dead bodies and entered the corridor through the door the two protectors tried to open. As soon as they opened the door, a few guards tried to attack them, but Gaya killed them before they could even raise their weapons. By the time they entered an empty room where House Rottgard had built the portal, the sun rose up on the horizon, shedding its first light on the kingdom.     

Just as Michael told Eve, the House Rottgard had ceased to exist at the first light. Finally, Eve stood before the portal after so much trouble and blood.      

"Next stop, Sil Alari," Gaya stated before walking into the dark blue vortex. Following Gaya, Michael walked into the portal and disappeared. At last, Eve took a deep breath.     

"Great One and Two, please let me save my family," Eve prayed, looking at the ceiling. Then, she walked into the portal with a ray of hope and heaviness in her heart.
