Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 426 -Arriving at Mazeroth

The next day, the sun slowly rose from the horizon spreading its golden rays to the land. The warmth of the sun woke up the early birds along with the disciples of the Sunrise sect. The sect was completely revitalized by new buildings and majestic flower plantations. The fountains built occasionally on the neatly paved road added an extra bit of charm to the sect's beauty. Only one construction place could be seen and it was on the place where Ghost's previous house was located.

On Gaya's rampage, she destroyed the home. Ever since then, the dwarven engineer who built the Hades was tasked to build Michael's new home. Michael bought a blueprint from the system store and made some changes to accommodate his taste and the size of the land given to him and handed the construction work to the dwarf. The total cost to build his new home was a whooping 18million gold coins. The blueprint Michael bought was the blueprint of Updown court in England. The changes were made to make the house smaller since Michael had no need for so many rooms and bathrooms.

After discussing with the dwarf, the house ended up with 20 rooms, 10 bathrooms, and five swimming pools including one private swimming pool for Gaya and Michael. Even this felt like too much to him but Gaya insisted and refused to go lower than 20 rooms.

Currently, only Gaya was standing in front of the half-built home waiting for Michael,

"Sorry, it took longer than I expected" Michael appeared out of thin air thanks to runic teleportation.

"Everything alright?"

Gaya asked, hugging him tight. They both continued to kiss each other before departing,

"Went great actually, I opened up a VIP account and Calvin's guy made a deposit of 6million into the account as my bonus. I guess Thusians have gold to spend"

"We should milk as much as we can before we destroy them" Gaya grinned,

"What about you? Did you tell the Kane family elders we might not be able to make it to the wedding?" asked Michael. He sat on the stack of marble stones and helped Gaya up. He then put his hand around Gaya's shoulder,

"They are pretty pissed off about the ambush. I heard that's the hottest topic in Elon right now. And oh, the wedding has been postponed"

Michael was surprised. The Kane family went to such lengths to make sure Adam weds the Oswen family heiress. It was highly unlikely they postponed because a trio of elders got ambushed.

"They didn't tell me why. They just told me the wedding has been postponed"

"Did you happen to meet Lord Ashton?"

"Nope," Gaya shook her head,

"Your full name is Gaya Ashton and he is also called Ashton. You two related?"

"It's coincidence brat" she gnawed Michael's hand playfully,

"Ouch, you animal" Michael knocked her on the head,

He suddenly stopped chuckling which made Gaya frown. She looked at his face to see a worried look on his face,

"Don't worry Michael, we will find a cure for your problem. I have a feeling the dark elf my mother talked about has all the answers we need"

"I am afraid he will have more than answers," said Michael. His gut feeling told him something was going to happen soon. Ignoring the gloomy feelings, Michael accessed the system storage to take out a brown sparkling potion.

He drank the potion quickly and closed his eyes. The potion was so bitter that it made bitter melon look sweet. After he drank the potion, Gaya noticed tiny hairs coming out of his cheeks. She saw his beard grow at a visible speed. In a few blinks of an eye, his stubble beard turned bushy.

His hair also grew a couple of inches but not as much as the beard.

"System, upgrade her mask to the max level" he then willed the system, placing his hand on Gaya's face. She began to feel a warm wave spreading through her head.

[The chameleon mask has been upgraded. Anyone under the Half Immortal stage will not see through the effects of the mask]

The system charged 10,000 badass points for the upgrade. This was the last thing Michael planned to do before leaving for the Akilan realm.

"What did you do?" asked Gaya, touching her face.

"I made sure you stay safe. Just run if you see anyone above Half Immortal stage"

"Human, I don't think those guys will be teaching there"

"Better safe than sorry. Shall we go?" Michael jumped down from the stacks of marble stones,

"Go? Aren't you gonna tell everyone?" she frowned as Michael sighed,

"I already told Claire. I am not very good at goodbyes. Besides, they are still grieving. We should leave them be"

Whoosh!

As Michael was speaking, a shadow was cast on them. They both looked up at the sky to see Nightmare slowly descending from the sky. He landed comfortably on Michael's shoulder,

"You're on time" Michael brushed Nightmare's neck gently,

"Before we go, I have a question. You are going to study, what is she gonna do? You faked the acceptance letter but what if they have records of new admissions. If they compare the list of names with the people who arrived, she will stand out" Gaya looked at Michael, expecting him to explain.

Believe it or not, Michael had the same question. However, according to the system, it altered the records somehow. At first, Michael couldn't believe the system. He never thought the system would be able to alter records of Mazeroth from another realm. Yet the system did that and reassured him that he has nothing to worry. He trusted the system enough to bring her to the Akilan realm.

"Where does this come from?" Nightmare nudged his head on Michael's beard.

"Let's go shall we?"Rather than explaining and wasting time, Michael retrieved the golden parchment from the system storage. Gaya also took out similar-looking parchment from her space ring. Both parchments looked exactly the same. No one could find any difference in the scroll except for their names.

Taking out a quill from their space rings, they signed their names on the corner of the parchments as instructed. After signing, nothing happened. They just kept staring at each other. For a couple of minutes, an awkward silence filled the area.

"What-"

And just as Gaya was about to say something, the air around the became hotter. They felt the space around them getting distorted. In the next second, a blue vortex appeared behind them and in a blink of an eye, the vortex sucked them in.

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

They traveled through space for more than three days but for them, it felt like a couple of seconds. When they opened their eyes, they were standing on endless grassland.

"Wow," Nightmare's jaw dropped a couple of inches down in shock. Not only he but Gaya and Michael were also mesmerized by the beauty around them. The puffy milky white clouds seemed so close to them, around them, there were hundreds of giant mountains in the shape of cones floating in the air. Hundreds of people flying on what seemed like swords and spears and even broomsticks.

Whoosh!

As they were basking in the beauty of the Akilan realm, the space around them was distorted once again. Before even Michael could turn his head, Gaya was sucked into a vortex.

Michael's heart skipped a beat as he reached for the vortex to pull her out. However, it was too late, she and the vortex both disappeared.

"System, locate her. Where is she?" he shouted at the system in his mind,contemporary romance

[Do not be alarmed, host. Gaya is still in the Akilan realm. The system has teleported her to another more suitable location]

"What do you mean more suitable?"

[You will see]

The system kicked him out in spite of his urge to ask more questions. The Akilan realm's sky was filled with floating mountains. Each mountain looked unique. One had water flowing from the top, one was covered in vegetation, and one seemed to be covered in snow. Under different circumstances, Michael would have taken some time to enjoy the beauty in peace and calm. Now, he wanted to find Gaya first.

"Human" all of a sudden, he heard Gaya's voice in his head through the earpiece.

"Fuck, did you teleport me here?" She sounded slightly annoyed because of the sudden teleportation.

"Trust me, I had no control. Where are you now?"

"I think I'm on a floating mountain. So I guess, I'm still in Akilan Realm"

Michael sighed,

"Let's find where are we exactly and rendezvous somewhere"

"Got it,"

"Welcome to Mazeroth"

A gruff voice sounded from behind. Michael quickly turned around and saw a giant of a man walking toward him. The man was about twice as tall as an average man, standing at ten feet tall and three times as wide, with a long mane of shaggy black hair and a beard that covered most of his face. He kinda reminded Michael of Hagrid in Harry Potter. The entire world seemed to be the world of wizardry in a weird way.

Except this man did not speak with an accent.

"You must be the youngster who goes by the name Ghost and who is this majestic creature?"

"Grrrrr" when the man tried to pet Nightmare, the dragon showed his razor-sharp teeth.

"Fierce one heh? I admire creatures with some spirit like this. You little dragon need all the spirit you can get to face those jerks called royal dragons"

For a moment, Michael remained silent. He was scanning the man from top to bottom. Surprisingly, the man was only at the Body Strengthening stage.

"Where are my manners? Im Gilrine, the groundskeeper of Mazeroth"
