Hitman With A Badass System

"Keep your eyes on the cauldron!" When a few disciples looked up, taking their eyes away from their table, Olivia shouted at them, making them quickly look down.

Michael's eyes were on Nathen but the young master of house Bradley was busy trying to figure out the right Diddia leaves to Iburry ration. For a 5-star Alchemist like Michael, the disease cure potion was a child's play but Nathen and these disciples were not 5-star Alchemists.

"Go on, take your ingredients," Olivia said looking at her Alchemy students while the others rushed towards the cupboards cursing Olivia under their breaths.

The Alchemy students buried to the table to pick the freshest of the herbs,

"I'm partnering with him," said Gaya stubbornly.

"Alright, since you two aren't Alchemy students, I'll let you partner up but I want two healing potions," Olivia said, raising two fingers in the air. He just nodded at Olivia, walking to the table, he saw the leftover herbs.

"What are you doing? First, you need the basic book of Alchemy" Olivia said while Michael was looking at the herbs and ingredients before him on the table.

"I think I can brew a simple potion without a book, Teacher Olivia" He was not trying to sound arrogant but in Olivia's eyes, his tone and look seemed extremely arrogant.

"Oh, a simple potion huh? Let me see your Alchemy prowess" It was evident she didn't like the way he talked, she made it obvious by her sarcastic tone.

She wanted to teach this arrogant bastard a lesson after he failed miserably.

However the next moment, he surprised her by picking up the right herbs from the table.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 700 badass points]

"Hold this" Michael handed over the herbs to Gaya, he then rolled up his sleeves before conjuring the green Alchemy flames

"Wait!" Olivia was stunned knowing that the green flames couldnt be summoned by anyone except Alchemists. Olivia's shout broke many disciples' concentration, they instantly looked up in the direction of the commotion to see her staring at the green flames hovering above a black-robed youth's hands in shock.

"Don't try this anywhere"? before Olivia could stop him, all the ingredients flew straight into the green flames,

"Ghost" from the distant Nathen recognized him immediately,

"You need a cauldron!" Olivia shouted at him but she soon closed her when a fist-sized ball of pure essence floated above the green flames.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 800 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 300 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 700 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 500 badass points]

…

His lips curved upwards, he would never get tired of this sweet notification sound, no matter how many times he hears it. One by one, the essence shot above the green flame,

Olivia was speechless, she just stared at the pure essence above the green flames. One could not extract the essence from the herbs with this much purity unless he's a godly level genius. Besides, he used the technique of extracting the essence using no cauldron, she didn't know anyone who could do that except one person, Ghost. But how could he be here? She thought.

In the next moment, all the eleven essences that were floating above came closer to merge as one big ball of the essence. Michael flicked his wrist, the green flames slowly faded away,

"Bring me five vials," She said to Gaya, making her lock eyes with the girls staring at him from the front table.

She went straight to those disciples and took their vials, asking no permission

"Give me those"? the girls were too focused on Michael to protect their empty vials from Gaya.

Under the shocked gazes of Olvia as well as the disciples, Michael moved his hand, splitting the one ball of essence into five balls before sending them flying into the empty vials.

"How did he…?"

"Look at the purity!"

"Who is he?"

"So handsome, so talented"

"Ha, I never thought I would see a day teacher Olivia shut her mouth"

"Teacher Olivia is 4-star Alchemist but I have never seen her brew that potion this quickly"

"So you're saying..."

"I know him, he's Ghost, Ghost of River town" contemporary romance

"The 5-star Alchemist of Bredia?!"

"The second best Alchemist of Bredia"

Instantly the previous silent classroom filled with murmuring, few who recognized Michael shouted in shock. Olivia leaned on the table to prevent her body from falling down in overwhelming shock.

"You asked me two potions, here's five" the five vials of glistening healing potions flew right into her hands as she subconsciously reached out to grab the potions.

….

The notification sounds went crazy in his head making him earn almost 8000 badass points in a couple of seconds.

"You...you...are"

"Name is Ghost, Teacher Olivia, it's a pleasure to meet you," he said with a warm smile on his face

"Well, not for me," Gaya said, rubbing her reddened ear. Olivia showed an expression of embarrassment. The dispels witnessing their teacher's face turning red didn't know whether to laugh or not. The disciples closest to Olvia knew that ever since this Ghost appeared out of nowhere and proved himself as a 5-star Alchemist, Olivia was talking non-stop about him, the method he was using to brew potions and concoct pills. She even paid a merchant a whopping amount of 12,000 gold coins for his healing potion, not because she has too many gold coins but because she wanted to get her hands on the potions as soon as possible. The only thing that stopped her from traveling to the Sunrise sect was her busy schedule, since the Alchemy competition of Kingdom Kethen was just around the corner, she had to prepare her students for the competition.

She was studying the potion and few female disciples suspected that she was studying the potion and him. Only because Nathen was one of her closest and top disciples, he knew about her interest in Ghost's Alchemy talents and promised him to get the contract for supplying Alchemy products for the outer circle.

Michael had no idea that he has an admirer, a die-hard fan in Aragoth.

"The pleasure is all...mine...Lord...Sir...Master" she stuttered searching for the right word to address him by,

"Ghost would do just fine, Teacher Olivia" he chuckled when calling her 'Teacher'.Although she was a 4-star Alchemist who is just a one-star away from reaching 5-star, everyone knew the gap between a 4-star and a 5-star is like heaven and hell. Only a few 4-star Alchemists reached the 5-star in their lifetime while others just died as a 4-star in old age.

Reaching the next star level was damn hard regardless of their talent. It required guidance, a humongous amount of resources, and hard work. For Olvia, the latter two weren't a problem but the first one, guidance. That was why she was hoping to meet Ghost, she wanted to study Alchemy from him as his disciple. She was willing to pay any price except her body of course.

"I can't" she shook her head,

"Ghost" While Olivia was struggling to find a way to ask him what she wants, Nathen came to greet Michael and also break the news to Michael,

"Nathen" Michael greeted him back with a smile, unlike the previous events, Nathen too widely grinned at him in return.

"Do you know him?" Olivia asked surprised, Nathen nodded and spoke,

"Teacher, Ghost, if you follow me"

"Lead the way" Before Olivia could ask further questions, Michael gestured at him to lead the way while Olivia followed him behind to her room which was located adjacent to the potion classroom.

Walking behind them, Gaya creased her brows, she could tell by looking at Olivia's body language that she needed something from him. As long as it was not a place at Michael's heart, she might consider giving it to her, if she was willing to pay the right price.

Until she came to Aragoth, she only wanted to test herself whether she has deep feelings for Michael using the love potion but after seeing the way these girls look at him, she wanted to check if he has any feelings for her before some girl steals him from her. Having more than one wife was normal but Gaya didn't want to share his soul mate with anyone else. She would rather kill all her competitions than share him.

If he tried to find another love anywhere else after sealing the deal with her, she would leave him after killing that girl. In simple words, she hated harems.

After leaving Aragoth, she decided not to waste any more time. The first thing she wanted to do after reaching Sunrise sect is to find a way to make him drink the love potion.

Of course, Michael did not know what this snake was scheming inside her head. He was too busy imagining the rain of gold coins he would receive after signing the contract with Aragoth.
