Hitman With A Badass System-Novel

"Stop it, stop it! That is mine!" Maisy shouted out loudly and lashed out of the thick forest into a lush grassland.

At the same time, a sound echoed from the front. The sound was coming from a puppy that was injured as it limped while it ran. A group of youngsters was chasing after the puppy and Maisy and Alicia were chasing behind them.

However, those youngsters completely ignored Maisy. Instead, a pair of archers turned around and faced Maisy as they nocked their bows and released several arrows towards her and Alicia, all the while maintaining an eye on the puppy.

Shiu! Shiu!

At the same time, a pair of cold steel arrows darted in the air and made a whooshing sound as it soared threateningly towards both girls.

"Shit! Where did these bloody thieves come from! I'll kill? you all!" Maisy was enraged. Alicia knew she couldn't control this little girl as she decided to let Maisy deal with these guys. Besides, she was more concerned about Abel and Noah who went to search for him.

Tightening her fist, she leaped into the air and she charged towards the pair of archers. Their faces turned serious as they retreated hurriedly. At the same time, they shouted out to their accomplices, " kill them first before we decide what to do with that"

The few of them listened to the instructions and hurriedly turned to Maisy in an utter surprise of his skills.

A man held onto a sharp spear as he cast a glance at Maisy and Alicia and spoke out in shock, " what the heck? That kid's a Body Refining level 8?!"

"Let's just kill the kid and her friend and get the real prize"

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The pair of male archers and Maisy exchanged several blows, their faces were grave as they spoke out in fear, "Don't underestimate her. She's strong as fuck. Luckily, we managed to dodge her blows just by an inch. If not, we would've been fucked"

"Oh?" The three of them listened to his words and cast their gaze at Maisy.

Looking at all their gazes turn towards Maisy, Alicia frowned because, among the group who were chasing after the puppy, 5 of them were Body Refining stage level 9. The pair of archers were in the 8th level of the Body Refining Stage. The rest of them were level 8 Body Refining stage cultivators. Their combined number was 20 and Maisy and she had no chance of surviving the battle without Noah with them.

Initially, only Maisy and she were chasing the puppy but because of the disciples from the Broad River sect who couldn't keep their mouth shut, many rogue cultivators joined the fight for the puppy.

"You go after our prize and we'll deal with them" After giving the order, the rest of the group blocked Maisy and Alicia's path.

Maisy's face turned red in anger as she kicked the ground and spoke out loud, "I was the one who found it first. The rest of you started chasing it without saying anything and wanted to steal it from me, run away before I'll break all your bones"

All of them listened to the little kid speak and paused for a second before bursting out into intense laughter.

"Break our bones? Hahaha! That's hilarious. You two seemed to be one of those freaks of nature, we get it but look how many of us are here. You can't win this fight"

"It was us who saw it first and it was you two who's trying to steal it from us"

"Besides, so what if you saw it first? This is Nether Realm, not your house. Even if you came from a big and powerful family, you are nothing but a chicken waiting to be slaughtered here"

…

"Maisy" Alicia tried to stop Maisy before she does something rashly but the little girl was too cocky." Fine, we'll do this the hard way then. Do you wish to battle us alone or together? I suggest all of you attack together so that I could go and break your underling's hands before he puts his dirty hands on my pet"

The group paused again in shock at her big words. Their mouths were wide open like fools before they burst out in laughter again.

"Haha! I didn't hear wrongly did I? Did this kid ask us to attack them all together?"

"Hehe… Kid, please don't assume that just because you've reached the Body Refining stage at this young age, you are unrivaled in this world."

"You should have taught that kid to keep her mouth shut girl"

"People who think too highly of themselves will always meet their dooms sooner rather than later. Clearly, your time to die isn't very far away!"

As they finished speaking, the few of them had mocking looks on their faces as it turned to cold laughter as they began their assault.

Maisy's eyes squinted as she laughed coldly as well, "Don't worry, my death date is still very far away. However, for the rest of you, you already have one foot into the realm of the dead'' Alicia knew it was too late to back off as she prepared to fight off them and hoped Noah would come to their rescue. At this moment, she missed having Noah's pills and potions to boost their power level.

"Haha! What a sharp tongue you have. What an ignorant fool, kill them!"

"Good!"

The man and woman duo acknowledged before casting their spells. Their flying swords flew up into the sky and circled around their heads before conjuring a flaming ring that hovered just above them.

They both pointed towards Maisy and Alicia in unison. The pair of archers took several steps back in order to gain some distance. They summoned their Arch energy to their hands and prepared to fire arrows.

Boom!

Just as the two sides about to clash, a body came back flying while spurting out blood all over them. The body collided heavily with a boulder, some distance away, and the collision force left deep cracks onto the boulder. The sudden appearance of the body caused the ring of fire to disperse.

Everyone including Alicia and Maisy stared at the headless body as one of the arches screamed out in horror, " It's Bowen!"

"Ghost" While the group was staring at the body, Alicia looked up to see Michael walking towards them. She also saw Maisy's pet sitting comfortably on his shoulder.

Soon one by one, everyone turned their gaze away from the body and noticed Michael.

The man wielding the spear had an ashen look as he cast a glance towards Michael, his face showed both fear and shock.

"Did you kill him!?" The pair of them spoke out furiously through gritted teeth as they nocked another arrow. Michael's face was bright as a day because he had found it, a little baby Dragon. Yes, the puppy they were chasing was not a puppy but an actual baby dragon. Only Maisy and few others recognized it as a baby Dragon while many others thought of it as a rare magical beast cub.

When Michael reached the System marked location, he saw the baby Dragon crying for help from the clutches of Bowen. The next and the last thing Bowen saw was just a flash of light before his head was separated from his shoulders. Michael then gently picked up the Dragon and saw the wounds on its body. He immediately gave the baby dragon the healing potion and even gently poured it into its mouth. The Baby Dragon didn't feel any ill intentions from him and after he cured its pain and made it feel safe, the baby dragon licked his face and wrapped its tail around his neck. Besides, he bought a piece of meat that the system recommended to him and fed the baby Dragon on his way to kill everyone who tried to harm his Dragon. Surprisingly more than the healing potion, it was this piece of meat that made the baby dragon love him so much in an instant.

"That's mine!" Michael suddenly heard a childish voice and looked down to see a little girl raising her fist. Only then he saw Alicia and although he didn't show any expression on his face, he was surprised to see Alicia.

"Let me guess, another heaven-defying genius friend of Noah" Michael sighed inside as the archers shouted at him again

"Answer the question, did you kill him!?"

"Are you stupid? of course I did" Michael mocked the archers. His answer and the way he answered pissed off the entire group as the archers released the arrows. However, even before the arrows could reach him, they saw him disappear from their sight.

Every one of them froze in shock and in a blink of an eye, they heard a sword slashing sound and the ones who stood beside the archers felt a hot splash of blood hit their faces.

Pu! Pu!

The pair of archers fell to the ground as their heads rolled off their bodies.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Body Refining stage level 8 cultivator. The reward is 6000 Experience points and 800 Badass points]

The next moment, he returned to the place where he stood before killing the archers.

"You're dead meat. You dare to kill my Broad River Sect brothers. You're finished" The man wielding the spear stopped in his tracks and glared at Michael in rage.

"Blood River Sect?! Holy shit I'm lucky, I was searching for you guys"
