《Assassin God》Chapter 7
Advertisement
An unknown amount of time has passed since Jotol told Vel to hide.
“Jotol when are you coming back” Vel said in a hoarse voice from crying.
“The servants of light should be gone maybe I should go looking for him” Vel thought as he pushed open door but what greeted him was something he would never forget.
The workshop was burned to the ground like the rest of the building or left in ruins as he looked around but what scared Vel the most was all the bodies of the townsfolk who were stack into a pile in the center of town. But what broke Vel was the body that was hung up above them as it belonged to Jotol.
“Why does this happen to me” Vel collapse to the ground in anger and sadness with bloody tears to running down his face.
‘Is it because I’m not strong enough or is someone out to kill me’ Vel thought in self-blame as anyone he ever cared for is now dead.
‘Maybe Leigh will have an answered’ Vel thought as if hoping for light in the dark tunnel.
“I don’t have the answered you looking for” Leigh said when he saw Vel appearance.
“Why don’t you. you’re supposed to know everything” Vel shout in anger after he heard this.
“I’m not the all knowing but what are you going to do about it” Leigh said trying to calm Vel down.
“I’m going to kill all those servants of light every single one of them” Vel said in a voice that would give devil chills.
“How are you going to reach that goal, are you going to walk right into their base and blow them up” Leigh asks.
“I’m going to train and kill them one by one to show them what true evil is causing them to run in fright every time they hear a rumor of me” Vel said finally calming down and thinking.

“Leigh is their anyway to train faster” Vel asks wanting to take revenge as quick as possible.
“There are but there are more negative than positive with such methods” Leigh said slowly.
“What are these methods” Vel demanded.
“I refuse to tell you as training step by step is what makes you truly strong” Leigh said.
“But at the pace, I’m training at they’re going to be dead before I get my chance” Vel said.
“If you’re that impatient it going to slow down the training which also means twice the effort but half the reward” Leigh said as he sits on a chair.
“So what your suggestion to move on with training” Vel asks.
“Why don’t you head towards the capital and do what training as” Leigh said causing confusion to show up on Vel face.
“Why the capital where they have the highest security” Vel can’t help but asks.
“Think Vel that where nobles live and rich merchants but don’t it mean more targets to assassinate which also mean faster training speeds” Leigh said staring at him.
“It a three-month trip to the capital but if I train along the way it could be longer” Vel said.
“Mission 3: Go to the capital and join the assassin guild, Time limit: 4 months”
“Fine to the capital” Vel said.
-Time Skip-
A boy who looks to be around eight or nine could be seen riding on a wagon.
“Sean grab me a snack will you” the merchant asks as he directs the wagon.
“Give me a second” Vel says with a smile as he hops in back.
When Vel enters the back of the wagon he grabs some tough bread and some water but he adds a little extra.
“Here you go” He smiles as he hands the food over.

The merchants took drink of water before he realized something wrong.
“What did you do to me” He says while coughing up blood.
“Add little poison to the water” Vel said in a monotone voice.
“Why” the merchant says before he dies and collapses to the floor.
“Because I was paid to kill you” Vel says as he walked into the forest soon arriving at a cabin. Inside the cabin two figures could be seen, one young girl and one old woman.
“The job is done now the payment” Vel asks the old woman.
“Here” she said tossing him three gold coins.
“You might want to bury her soon before she stinks the place up” Vel says pointing at corpse of the young girl as he left.
“You are correct” the old woman says as she began tossing oil around the house and lighting it.
“So this is her choice after she got her revenge” Vel mumbled as he watches the cabin burn down.
“Host has gained 10 experiences”
“Show status”
Name: Vel
Assassin Title: Assassin God
Rank: Trainee
Experience: 90/100
“One more kill and I rank up” Vel said looking at his status.
“You're making nice progress and by your progress you should arrive in the capital in about a week" Leigh says looking at Vel who growing into a fine assassin.
"My goal is to rank up before reaching the city" Vel says.
"I wouldn't since you been killing all the way here and now there a trail of bodies leading toward the capital" Leigh warns since Vel been sloppy in this part.
"Very well" Vel says disappointed when he left but knows Leigh only wants him to be careful.

But when his family’s life is on the line? That’s something else.

It should've been a blue milk run. As by-the-book as it gets. With his sister Nina out safe and the opposition decimated by hypersonic gunfire, MC wondered where they got the guts to even try. Then something hits him. Lays him out cold, and leaves him waking up to a fantasyland with nothing but his armor and a half-written note to guide him. It's a strange place where even stranger predators eye him for their next meal. Where his life’s on a timer, and where the darkest horrors haunt his dreams, painting visions of death. There's no right day to mess with Magnus Cromwell. But the universe sure managed to pick the absolute worst one. --- - MC is stone-cold, strong(OP), and gets even stronger, but he'll still face his fair share of challenges, both internal and external. - LitRPG-lite. No stats and an unconventional system. Expect abilities and progressions, but there will only ever be a handful of them. - Science Fiction and Fantasy collide, with a touch of mystery, Lovecraft, and body horror. - Professionally painted art scenes! - This series is finished.
