Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 643 Duke Avon wants Alicia

"Weak," A strong hateful voice was heard. Alicia intuitively blocked Duke Avon's hands from above. His speed was nothing like she had expected. One moment, he was in front of her, and the other, he was on top of her. Alicia's hands felt numb after the attack. Fortunately, she used her spear and sword to block the attack. Suppose she used her hand, it would have broken like a twig. Without giving time for Alicia to retaliate, Duke Avon sent a kick toward Alicia's gut. Alicia evaded the kick by quickly leaping back, but Duke Avon's hand swirled and followed her movements. His hands aimed at her neck. Alicia quickly erupted a shield made of three layers of ice in front of her. But to her astonishment, the ice shield formed cracks and shattered the moment Duke Avon's fist collided with it. Caught off guard, Alicia evaded the punch a split second later. The fist of Duke Avon hit Alicia on the shoulder, nearly dislocating her shoulder. A painful groan escaped her mouth.

"You are a lot weaker than I expected," Duke Avon cracked his knuckles.

"How disappointing?"

Alicia frowned. He didn't cast any spells, yet she moved at a speed beyond her expectation. Even her grandfather, the demon, didn't move with such speed. Something was amiss. On top of his freaky speed, Alicia smelled a strong, pungent smell coming off of Duke Avon.

"You did something to yourself," Alicia said.

"You noticed huh?" Duke Avon grinned under his dark hood.

"So I was right. You did do something to yourself," Alicia exclaimed. She then dropped the sword as the sword stabbed the ground, standing straight. Alicia massaged the shoulder hit by Avon's fist with her empty hand. Since Duke Avon wasn't in a rush to kill Alicia, he allowed her to take some time. He slowly realized that he liked the process of hunting more than the prey itself. After tasting a glimpse of Avon's power, Alicia did not underestimate him. She clenched the spear tight, casting a spell in the other hand. In a blink of an eye, a light blue chakra materialized in front of her.

Looking at the rotating chakra and the several runes in it, Avon didn't even flinch. Instead, he waited for the chakra to do something. His wish came true soon as the arrows made of ice shot out from the chakra rapidly toward him.

The chakra moved along with Alicia. A bright light flashed across the area every time an arrow shot out of the chakra. Cold air surrounded Alicia and Avon. But to Alicia's astonishment, none of the arrows made a dent in Avon. He just stood there, taking the arrows without moving an inch. Every arrow that hit Avon exploded into tiny dots of light before fading away. As a vampire, he was completely immune to any spell attacks. Poor Alicia had no idea Duke Avon before her was an Elder Vampire. The last time an Elder vampire appeared, it took Michael and Noah to kill him. Compared to Duke Avon, the elder vampire Michael and Noah fought was far weaker. That elder vampire was created by Hacan and Trista, two Elder Vampires. On the contrary, Avon was turned by four elder vampires.

Alicia didn't know she started a fight that she had no chance of winning.

"I wonder how it feels to have my own minions," Avon slightly tilted his head, looking at Alicia from head to toe. As an elder vampire, he was free to do whatever he wanted as long as it benefited the vampires. After exchanging some blows with Alicia, Avon wondered whether to kill her or turn her into a vampire. According to Saber, the stronger one's will, the harder it would be to turn and control them. However, once their will was broken, they could be turned into a powerful greater vampire and eventually an elder vampire.

His train of thought was cut short when Alicia leaped at him with her spear pointing directly at his head. She pushed herself to the maximum. As a result, she moved at the speed of an arrow. But to Avon, she moved at a snail's pace. He waited patiently until the spear was just a few inches away from his head. When the spear was about to penetrate his head, Avon grabbed the spear, pulled it toward him, and slapped Alicia right on the face.

His slap was strong enough to send Alicia flying for nearly ten meters. Avon was surprised to see his own strength. He only used a sliver of his strength yet it was enough to send Alicia flying.

"This is power," Avon looked down at his fists. His grin grew ear to ear. At this moment, Avon felt he could take on the entire world. He feared nothing. With the blood of a vampire, he was quite unstoppable. Soon, Saber would find a solution for them to walk at night, and at that time, the night rulers would rule the day too. However, to achieve Saber's goal, Avon must first bring the kingdom of Kethern to Saber's feet. Only then could Saber use Kethen as his hunting ground and conduct several experiments to find a solution for the sun.

The Elder vampire fought Michael and Noah used the dark web created by one of Saber's minions like Fabia. Although it prevented the sun rays from penetrating through, the dark web couldn't exist for more than a day. After what had transpired in the alchemist competition, Saber ordered his minions to perfect the dark web while sourcing another group to come up with a new solution. The Elder vampires before the current ones were quite satisfied with living in the shadows. But it changed now. Saber and his group of Elder vampires except Ingram, wanted to rule both the day and night.

Now that the Guardian Guild exposed them, they wanted to control the world more than ever before.contemporary romance

Finally, Alicia hit the ground with a small thud. She slid through the grassfied for several meters , leaving a buddy trail before coming to a halt. Her face was slightly swollen as one could see the handprint on her cheek. She coughed out blood. When she picked herself up, her silver armor was completely drenched in mud. Gritting her teeth, Alicia suppressed the pain. With a flick of her wrist, she took out a glimmering blue potion.

Avon glared at the potion in her hand.The potion in Alicia's hand paled in comparison to the potions he recently acquired. To Alicia's surprise, Avon allowed her to drink the whole potion without doing anything. He patiently waited for Alicia to completely heal up.

"Why?" Alicia questioned herself. But pushing her doubts to the corner of her mind, she dashed at Avon once again. This time, her speed was several times faster than before. On her way to Avon, she threw the spear aside and picked up the sword sticking into the ground. In a few blinks of an eye, she appeared in front of Avon. Surprised by her speed, Avon failed to react in time. Using this momentary slip up of Avon, Alicia swung her sword, deeply cutting Avon's shoulder. Blood spurted out. She did not stop with one cut. Instead, Alicia swung her sword left and right with monstrous speed.

One by one, the cuts on Avon's body increased. Avon purposely let Alicia cut him so he could see his regeneration ability with his own eyes. Still, he avoided the sword slashes aimed at his neck. Although the vampires possessed a regeneration ability, they couldn't regenerate a severed head. A common or an uncommon sword had no chance of penetrating a vampire's thick skin, especially an Elder''s vampire's skin. But the sword in Alicia's hand was a family treasure gifted to her by Xavier himself. The dwarves forged the sword using some rare metals and engraved runes to complement cold elemental spells.

Seeing Avon avoiding the slashes aimed at his neck, Alicia began to specifically aim for his head. She felt like she found a weakness and tried to exploit this weakness. While slashing her sword left and right, Alicia cast demonic ice rain spell again, targeting Duke Avon. But to her astonishment, when the chakra materialized above them and illuminated the area, she noticed the cuts on Avon's body closing up without Avon taking any healing potions.

Furthermore, she noticed Avon's eyes glimmering under the dark hood and a glimpse of his fangs. Her body went rigid as her brain started to process everything that had transpired. She immediately tried to leap back. But just as she was about to, Avon grabbed her by her neck. At this time, the ice spikes started to rain down upon Avon. Before the spikes could reach him, Avon looked up. A black mist shot out of him, creating a crescent shield above them.

The ice spikes collided with the shield only to explode into oblivion. They did not even form a crack on the shield.

"You are lucky," Avon growled. Under his deadly grip, Alicia's face turned paler. She tried to cut him with the sword but he just swatted the sword out of her hand.

"You will be my first minion. Take great pride in that," Alicia felt a chill hearing his animalistic growl. She could see the fangs more clearly up closer.

"You…vampire…" Alicia could hardly utter these words.

"Soon, you will be one of us too," Avon pulled Alicia closer. He took a long whiff of the sweet fragrance coming from Alicia's blood. More than anything, he wanted to sink his fangs into her neck. Alicia struggled frantically but he was too strong.

"No…" Alicia felt Avon's skin against her skin.

When he was about to turn her into a vampire, a golden light flashed across the sky. The next moment, something shot directly onto Avon, sending him flying.

Alicia coughed.

"Stay back," to her surprise, Ethan stood between her and Avon with golden metallic wings protruding out of his back.

The golden light radiated by Ethan's wings weakened Avon. He hissed and leaped back to get away from the golden light.

"Uncle. He is not a human anymore. He is a vampire," Alicia managed to warn Ethan. Her words startled Ethan but he didn't flinch.

"Get back to your grandfather. I will take care of this," said Ethan.

"The hell you will," The hatred filled voice of Avon reverberated in the area. Ethan and Alicia took a step back seeing Avon's eyes glimmering under his dark hood like rubies. A dark cloud shrouded him as he moved closer to Ethan.

"I need only one minion. So one of you will die here," Avon growled.
