Hitman With A Badass System

The golden box grew bigger and bigger before exploding into golden bits of light revealing a silver card.

[Congratulations to the host for receiving the unique trait 'Inventor']

As soon as finished reading the system notification, he felt the familiar sharp pain in his mind. In a blink of an eye, the pain disappeared leaving new knowledge in his brain.

[Congratulations to the host for becoming the Level 1 Inventor. The host can now use the materials found in this world to build basic tools]

Michael closed his eyes for a second, studying the new knowledge. He was able to tell that he could now build tools such as batteries, torches, and compasses using the materials found in this world. Although these tools seemed almost useless to him, he did not underestimate the trait.

"System show me how many levels this trait has and what do I get in each level?"

[The Inventor trait has 6-star levels]

[Star 1 - The host will be able to build basic tools and day to day items]

[Star 2 - The host will be able to build basic gadgets such as night-vision goggles, lasers, etc]

[Star 3 - The host will be able to build complex gadgets such as eavesdropping bugs, micro cameras, and trackers, etc]

[Star 4 - The host will be able to build new and antique firearms such as crossbows, mini crossbows, limited shots revolver, cannons, etc]

[Star 5 - The host will be able to build various types of new gadgets and weapons]

[The host is required to either have a 5-star blacksmith or become a 5-star blacksmith to unlock the Star-6 Inventor Trait ]

His eyes sparkled looking at this overpowered trait. He couldn't even imagine how powerful he would become after reaching the 5-sta Inventor level. Whoever had a special trait in this world would be more likely to become successful and powerful than those who don't have a trait.

For instance, the 5-star Alchemy had already made him super op and saved his life a couple of times yet Alchemy was not a unique trait but the Inventor trait was.

His smile grew wider in excitement, "System, quick, tell me the cost for upgrading the trait"

[Star 2 requires 10,000 badass points ]

"Do it" Although 10k points was a huge amount, he did not care about the points as he realized the potential of this trait. After he ordered the system, his 48,000 badass points were reduced to 38,000. The very next moment, he experienced a tingling sensation in his brain before the notification box appeared in front of him.

[Congratulations to the host for becoming the Level 2 Inventor. The host can now use the materials found in this world to build basic gadgets]

"How much for the next level?" He asked quickly. He knew he probably doesn't have enough badass points to reach the 5-star level but he wanted to upgrade as much as possible with the current amount of points.

[20,000 badass points]

"You know what to do" The points decreased to 18,000 while the tingling sensation appeared again and this time, it was slightly more painful than before.

[Congratulations to the host for becoming the Level 3 Inventor. The host can now use the materials found in this world to build complex gadgets]

Michael closed his eyes again and felt like he could build numerous complex gadgets using the materials found in this world, he had already started to plan a few modifications and new gadgets to his Lucifer armor.

Now that he could build gadgets such as eavesdropping bugs and micro cameras, he did not need to buy them from the system.

"System, how much for the next upgrade?"

[60,000 badass points]

"Damn, I have a lot of work to do" saving his remaining points for an emergency, he closed the system before taking out a slice of meat he bought for the baby dragon from his storage.

At the moment, the baby dragon was standing on his shoulder, staring at everything around him curiously and whenever his gaze fell on Lailah, puffs of smoke would come out of his nostrils.

"Do you want this?" Michael showed the juicy red meat to the baby dragon.

"Yummy!" seeing his favorite food, the baby dragon's eyes sparkled as he lunged at the meat.

"Slow down" he was too late as the baby dragon had already finished half of the slice in one single bite.

While the baby dragon was munching on the meat, he turned his gaze towards Lailah, "How long do you plan to be like this? After balancing the Yin and Yang and absorbing the energies, we both should have reaped great benefits. See it for yourself"

Currently, Lailah had already begun to calm down gradually. Hearing what Michael had said, her expression remained the same. She closed her eyes skeptically, silently sensing any changes in her body.

A second later, Lailah's eyes abruptly snapped open. They were filled with an unconcealable shock but very soon, it turned into pain. She gently bit her bottom lip and she seemed down.

Her strength had indeed increased, just as he had said. However, compared to the price she had paid, she would have rather not gained this increase.

"I would have rather died than increasing my cultivation level like that" she didn't hide the misery and anger inside her heart as she yelled at him.

Her answer however annoyed Michael.

"Then kill yourself, no one is stopping you"

"Yeah go and die, puny human!' the baby dragon raised his claws and said disdainfully. It was obvious that the baby dragon did not like Lailah and would kill her if he could.

The way the both of them acted fanned the flames of her anger yet she knew she is unable to harm them at all. However, although her heart was burning in anger at him, her mind told her that he used the Spirit walking only because he had no choice and avoided taking advantage of the situation to sully her body which many young men like him would have done in a heartbeat.

Michael did not give a shit about her feelings, he did what he had to survive. If it wasn't for the fact she knew the way to the teleportation array and save Christopher, he would have already left her.

Seeing that she did not overreact like before, he calmly said, " Let's see if we can find the teleportation array"

Lailah sat dejectedly on the ground as if she could not hear Michael at all. She gave no reaction. He then slowly took a couple of steps towards her

"The longer we stay here, the longer that old man would suffer"

As he said that, Michael paid no more attention to her, turning around and walking off into the distance with the baby dragon.

Lailah slowly raised her head. She stared at his back which constantly grew smaller with mixed emotions. Gently biting her lip, she hesitated slightly before she slowly followed Michael in the end.

The two of them maintained a distance of thirty meters between them as they traveled and they eventually arrived at a deep canal of unknown meters. This was where the two huge pillars of light were three days ago.

Standing at the canal of the canal, he did not hurry down. He focused his eyes on the very center of it. He could vaguely feel some extremely obscure ripples of energy and the ripples were so powerful that it even made him shocked.

[The system can sense the energy signature of the teleportation array] he sighed in relief seeing that he's on the correct path.

"What's down there? I can vaguely sense powerful energy coming from this hole" the baby dragon craned his neck to look into the hole before speaking.

Lailah also walked up from behind. Despite the wound in her heart, she had already calmed down and her face was once again hidden by a veil. She stood three meters away from him at the edge of the canal. At the same time, she looked down into the very depths with her eyes that were still filled with misery. She could obviously feel the extremely obscure but powerful ripples of energy too.

After hearing the system and the baby dragon, he looked at the dark hole vigilantly. He then willed the Arch energy to fill every corner of his body, strengthening his body to the limit.

He no longer paid any attention to Lilah and her tantrum. Without even turning back to look at her, he directly leaped into the hole. While falling down, he retrieved the flying sword and hopped on it in the mid-air.

Lailah followed closely after he leaped down. She tailed Michael, slowly gliding down toward the bottom too.? The two of them arrived at the bottom very quickly. The bottom was flat and had a diameter of a hundred meters. Two balls of powerful light floated quietly at the center. The balls were two meters off the ground. One ball seemed to have been made of water which radiated a bright blue color while the other seemed to have been made of fire, radiating fiery red color.

[The First Energy stone] the system exclaimed as he was staring at the two balls of energy with interest for a while before he slowly walked over. The baby dragon and Lailah also looked at the energy balls, observing them curiously.? After he sensed a slight surprise in the system's voice, he wondered whether he could use the balls of energy to further advance in the cultivation. contemporary romance

However, as soon as he reached thirty meters from the energy balls, a white figure appeared silently to block Michael's path before the baby dragon and Lailah fell unconsciously on the ground.
