In these few months, I have gained a skill for sensing my surroundings.
It helps guess the numbers around and also see if I'm in an imminent danger or not. Right now was one of those tis.
'But this problem isn't bad, its actually good.'
I sensed and saw a group of ten people following from above. Most likely running through the roofs or flying, which showed all of them are Sigmat Users.
Probably Assassins.
It was a big number, so that ans soone important must have sent them. For so ti, I've been getting a premonition of sothing bad was about to happen. Just couldn't figure out who it was from.
But because of this group, now I would be able to figure that out.
I open the small pocket of the carriage and call the driver, "What's your na?"
", sir?" The driver asked.
"Yeah"
"It's Gabe, sir."
"Well, Gabe. We're gonna take a detour now, alright."
"Okay sir, where to?" Gave asked.
"Take to a quiet place, an alley or soplace where its most likely to be empty."
"Like the low streets, sir?"
"Exactly like that, carry on."
"As you say." Gabe went on, not the least bit suspicious of the assassins hanging behind us. As he took the turns, I asked him so questions.
"So Gabe, do you have any family?"
"Family… yes, I do sir. A wife and two daughters."
"That's nice." I thought, 'So a widow and two baggage's.'
"Do you have any plans for them?"
"Plans… Well, I was thinking of taking them to see the capital next month and possibly migrate them here, under your service."
I nod, "And what about money? Have you saved so for them… you know, if sothing unfortunate happens."
"Uhh…" Gabe didn't know where this was heading, but still answered, "Not much, but working under you, I'm sure I'll have enough left after a year of savings."
'Okay then, A widow prostitute and two very soon to be whores.'
"We're here, sir." Gabe said and I got out.
Seeing that we were at a corner of an alley and there was nothing but dead end ahead, I nod in satisfaction.
"Yes, this is good. This would work out."
"Sir… if I'm not prying…"
"Go on, Gabe. You'd be dead anyway, so it's no problem."
"De- Dead? What do you an by that?" He looked at confused.
"We have assassins tailing us, Gabe." I tell him.
"Assassins? Th- Then why aren't we running away from them, sir?" Gabe asked.
"Because I want to talk with them."
"Is that a good idea?"
"For , yes. For everyone else… probably not." I say and suggest him, "You should probably start running now, you don't wanna end up like the last driver right?"
Gabe stepped back in fear, "Wh- What happened to the last one?"
"He's head was cut off by an assassin… ironic huh."
"HAH! The- then I'm going to die to- Hagh!" Gabe couldn't even finish his last words as a black figure jumped on him.
"Hagh"
"Hagh!"
Gabe gargled in pain as he got stabbed multiple tis by a knife to his body.
'Poor guy… A clean cut to the head would have ended it. But he had to go and ask unnecessary questions, the guy could have lived a few more seconds.' I shake my head at his poor execution.
As the guy stabbed, I saw a few figures arrive over the roof of the buildings, watching . Finished stabbing, he stood up and pointed his bloody knife at , "You're next."
"Before you make that stupid mistake, I want to talk to you guys for a second."
"Haha…" The assassin laughed, "Wanna beg for your life."
"No no, completely opposite. I have a good proposition to all of you."
The assassin's eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Yeah, we don't do proposition and stuff. We take a contract, we find the contract and we kill them."
"That's a good plan…" I say, tilting my head slightly, "If it was soone else, believe you don't want to go that path with ."
"Well believe when I say, you're gonna beg to kill you a second later." The assassin said, throwing his knife at my face.
I tilt, easily dodging it. He ran with the knife and jumped at , screaming like a maniac.
Big mistake.
I imdiately grab him by his face and before he could strike with the knife, I break that hand.
"Hmph!" He moaned under my palm and tried to use the next hand but I grab it.
I take a look above, he's friends quietly watching, checking for any hidden danger. At least they have brains.
I turn him towards his friends, "Now here's a demonstration at what will happen, if you do sothing as stupid as this guy.
Saying that, I pull on his hand. The force was so strong that his bones broke and arm quickly got ripped out.
"Arghhhh!" The assassins shrilled scream filled the dark place. Never had he felt such an intense pain under a locked hold.
"Next goes his head." I say and put my hand over his hair.
"Ple- Please… let go." The guy begged.
I smile dangerously at him, "Oh? So back then, did you an you were going to beg to spare you?"
"Ye- Yes… spare ." He said, his tongue foreign to English.
"Are you from Sekai?"
"Yes" The guy nodded crazily.
"Thank you, now I don't need anything from you."
Understanding what I ant, he's eyes widened, "N- No!"
But I was already pulling up his head.
He's head stretched and his eye sockets pulled up, shoving out his balls. Then his jaw broke and finally when he's neck couldn't stretch anymore, it ripped out and splattered blood and bones.
It was actually a bit fun. Seeing his head rip out and bone protruding from his neck as blood sprayed out from it and showered .
Seriously… am I the crazy one here to enjoy such a scene?
He's friends finally showed so reaction as they slowly backed a step. They realized now they were facing a crazy guy here.
Now they have two choices, face head on and kill or try to hear out.
The ones leading the team chose second.
"Alright we'll listen." I hear a male voice accompanied by a second one.
"Stay right there and don't do anything crazy."
I smile, my face filled with the assassin's blood, "Enjoyed the show?"
They didn't say anything and I see five people walking towards .
They all wore black covers over them, hiding all their features. All of them emitted strong auras.
Among the five, I saw the two in front with Pink Sigmat Rings and the other three Blue. I take a look above and see the ones hiding to have Blue rings too.
'Wow! They really want that dead.'
The group stopped 10 steps away from , sowhat cautious after the blood show.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"Well, I want to know who wants to kill ."
"That's it?" The guy raised his brow through his black mask. "You don't wanna proposition about freeing your life."
"Freeing my life, hah!" I laugh, "Dude… I'm the only one walking out of here alive."
