Hitman With A Badass System-Novel

For the last couple of minutes, the Orc told everything Michael needed to know. According to the Orc, he was named Dular and he belonged to a long line of summoners, a faction called Death wakers. The Orc said his father and brothers were the ones who summoned the Netherels but he also said, they did that as an experiment and not to attack anyone.

Obviously, Michael was not a fool to believe the last part yet he chose not to cross-question the Orc because he didn't bring the Orc here to punish him but use the Orc to level up quickly. As for the enmity between the Orc and the Guardians, the matter was simple; the Guardians chased and killed Dular's father and brother as well as all their family including little orcs.

Dular said he was learning summoning from his father and brother to build a kingdom unifying all the Orc villages that were scattered throughout the continent. He somewhat believed Dular because he did see Dular let out mad laughter after summoning the Netherels showing Michael that it was Dular's first time summoning Netherels. Besides, if Dular was an expert in summoning Netherels he would have summoned stronger Netherels.

In his path to world domination, he knew the Guardians would stand against him. Therefore a fight with the Guardians was inevitable and if Dular could help him in the fight, he would let Dular live to serve him as his subordinate.

"You can't win the fight against the Guardians, you almost died back there and he was only a friend of a trainee Guardian. Now tell me Dular, do you really think you have the chance against the Guardian Guild?" Despite their look, Orc was generally an intelligent race so Dular could understand the power gap between him and the Guardians. Now that the entire Guardian Guild was searching for him, Dular realized that he needed someone powerful enough to protect him and the being in front of him looked more terrifying than any Guardian he had met.

"Serve me well and you'll not only get to see the Guardians destroyed but also get a kingdom for your race" there was a glint of surprise hidden within Dular's eyes but also doubt and suspicion.

"Will you serve me as my subordinate?" asked Michael. Considering he couldn't threaten the Orc to be his subordinate, he had to offer Dular something and make him agree to be his subordinate willingly.

[SYSTEM….ERROR….!]

[OMEGA…..THREAT…..!]

However, the next moment, Michael's vision completely turned red and the system was screaming inside his mind. He instantly opened the system and saw the multiple warnings in the interface.

"System, what's happening?" his heart was beating rapidly because, without the system, his plans and path to domination would take a huge hit.

[Need….1000 Points...to System...reboot...]

"Take it" he didn't think the system was faking it but it sounded like screaming in pain. Soon after he gave permission to the system, his vision turned blank and the system's interface faded away from his sight.

[System back online] a few seconds after, the familiar system interface appeared before him and only then he heaved a sigh of relief.

"What the heck was that?"

[System level is too low to answer the host's question]

[System recommends the host not to make Dular his subordinate]

"Why?"

[System level is too low to answer the host's question]

"Weird" The System's behavior puzzled him. Dular was indeed a powerful ally but he wasn't worth the trouble if making him a subordinate would mess up the system.

Although Michael wouldn't be able to see Dular's loyalty if he didn't make him Dular his subordinate through the System, he didn't require Dular's utmost loyalty to use Dular's summoning ability. However, unlike Gaya, he had to keep Dular under his sight all day to make sure the Orc doesn't plan anything on his own to rebel or betray him.

For that Michael decided to keep him locked up in the Abyssal and keep him under surveillance.

"I will my lord" When Michael closed the system, he saw Dular stepping forward and kneeling down in front of him.

"Very good" As he said, Michael bought a syringe and stabbed Dular in his neck.

"Ah! What-"

"You said you opened up a secret portal to come here, open up the portal again and go to the Dark Forest's border. You'll meet my second in command and she will give you the antidote or you'll die in six hours" Dular stumbled back again and felt a cold chill running through his spine.

"Do you have a problem?" Michael released a small amount of Fear toxin to subjugate Dular and as he planned, Dular shook his head up and down rapidly after inhaling the Fear toxin.

"No...No problem..my lord" Michael very well knew that if Dular's loyalty is due to fear, it's not loyalty but fear disguised as loyalty. Yet for now, Dular's fear of him would work in his favor.

"Now leave" He ordered Dular when he noticed the cultivation masking function had only a few minutes left before it stopped working and revealed his cultivation level. Therefore, Michael urged Dular to leave his sight because he didn't want to reveal his cultivation level to Dular.

"Yes...my lord" Because Orc had natural healing ability, the wounds he suffered almost disappeared and Michael did not need to give him a healing potion. Dular picked himself up and quickly ran away from the cabin to open up the portal and reach the Dark forest before he dies.

After he saw Dular disappear from his environmental scanning, Michael also left the cabin and dashed towards the cave. On his way to the cave, he transformed from Lucifer to Ghost. The night was still dark and silent when he reached his cave. Inside the cave, Michael instantly opened the system and bought another set of suit of armor for Gaya. The armor was exactly like his Lucifer armor except he asked the system to change the armor to fit her body. He also bought another black mask for her to hide her face. Due to the changes to the armor, he paid extra 1000 badass points but it was worth the points and he couldn't wait to see Gaya in her new suit of armor.

**************************

After he told Gaya what happened to Abel and everything about the Orc, he opened up the system to see his current stats as well as to see what the mystery box contained which he received after killing Abel.

The Abyssal

"System, open that mystery box" He was excited because the system's gift box would have something extremely valuable or useful to him. This time, he wanted a Legendary weapon or a new spell. Soon, a greyish box appeared in front of him and trembled before it exploded into millions of tiny pieces leaving Michael stunned, "huh? Where are my rewards?"

However soon, he saw a white spot on his environmental scanning map, just like the time when the system marked the book of Abyssal during the Phoenix manor auction fair. Surprisingly, the location was not out there in the outside world but the Nether realm.

"A point of interest eh, I wonder what I would find there. Oh speaking of locations, the system can you scan the Nether realm and reveal me the treasures in here"

[System level is too low to scan the Nether realm. But the system can tell you that treasures wouldn't appear during the night time]

"Bad luck, I was planning to steal all the treasures overnight"? Michael sighed thinking that his plan won't work but still, his unlimited system storage space gave him the absolute advantage over everyone.

"System after I killed that guy in the forest, you said I killed an ally of a powerful foe, by a powerful foe, did you mean Noah?"

[System level is too low to answer the host's question]

"Oh come on! Can you at least tell me yes or no" The system went radio silent hearing the question and Michael could only sigh and hope to receive an answer after he upgrades the system to the next level. For now, he decided to let the matter rest as he wanted to go check out the location that the system gave him as a gift.

Meanwhile somewhere else, Noah and his friends were waiting for Abel to return but they did not know that Abel had just left this world. By killing Abel, Michael started the age of Darkness as the Dark Lord.

How far would Michael go in the path of Darkness to achieve his goals?

How many innocents is he going to kill in the process of becoming the ultimate overlord of this world?
