Hitman With A Badass System

In mid-air, Victoria and Michael clashed. She unsheathed her long sword and held it tightly using both hands. The sword was extremely heavy. But this sword was just for normal enemies. She could conjure a sword made of Cosmic energy, which could cut through anything except Michael's body. That didn't mean the Cosmic sword was completely useless against Michael. For some reason, Victoria fought with the big long sword instead of the Cosmic sword.

Victoria swung her heavy sword left and right. Michael wondered what lengths she went to reach the Fusion stage in such a short amount of time. Judging by the unstable energy radiation around her body, Michael could tell she had used shortcuts to boost her power. Michael swayed his body to the sides, easily evading the sword. Victoria's figure was blurry to others, but to Michael, she moved in slow motion. He read all her moves before she made them. Victoria was trained to control her emotions. But how could she control her anger when she fights the killer of her mother?

"Is this all you got?" Michael snickered. He put one arm behind and swatted the sword with the other. Victoria fought viciously. Each of her sword swings cut through the air, creating a sharp noise. While swinging the sword, she raised her hand. Immediately, the sword in her hand lit with fire. The flames were scorching hot. They vaporized the snow in a five-meter radius around them. It felt like the snow had stopped for Michael and Victoria.

Every time she swung her sword, the flames lingered in the sword's path for a few moments before fading away. Despite the flames on the sword, Michael swatted the sword like it was nothing. Suddenly, Michael grabbed the sword with one hand.

"I am disappointed in how pathetically weak you are," said Michael. He clenched his fist and punched Victoria in the gut, sending her flying back into the dome. She flew in the air for a minute or two before crashing down on a wooden building. The sheer force of her collision made the house crumble down. Michael looked at the flaming sword in his hand.

"Fancy sword," mumbled Michael. To his surprise, a couple of crimson-red runes glowed on the hilt. The sword dashed out of his grab. It flew straight toward Victoria, leaving a fiery trail in the air. He noticed the broken wooden planks in the house moving. Soon, Victoria managed to climb up the collapsed house with the flaming sword in her hand.contemporary romance

"Your royal highness!" The royal guards came running to her rescue.

"FIRE!" Michael turned his gaze toward an old man in silver armor. The ashen-haired old man ordered his men to fire the trebuchets. Michael wasn't surprised by the old man's Fusion Stage cultivation level. At this point, Michael would be surprised if Thusia didn't have any more Fusion stage cultivators. With this many Fusion stage warriors, no wonder no one was able to touch Thusia. Maxim Barnes created a powerful dynasty in a short time using the Cosmic stream.

The boulders fired by the trebuchets soared through the air. In mid-air, some of the boulders froze while some lit up with flames. Michael hovered in the air, waiting for the boulders. When they were just a few meters away from him, Michael simply raised his hand. A ring of fark flames pulsated from Michael's body. Upon the boulders came into contact with the dark flames, they turned into ashes.

The soldiers were stunned. In a blink of an eye, almost twenty boulders disappeared from their sight completely. Still, the old man did not lose hope. He barked another order to fire again. At the same time, Victoria shot toward the sky to resume her fight. A frozen boulder reached Michael before Victoria. He surprised everyone by catching the boulder. He lifted the boulder with one hand. He started to spin the boulder on top of his index finger. When he saw Victoria soaring through the air, he threw the boulder at her. She swung the sword, cutting the boulder in half. But when the boulder split open, she saw Michael's fist. She quickly raised the sword to defend herself. Michael's fist hit the sword. In return, the sword hit Victoria's face. Her vision became blurry for a moment. Michael utilized the opportunity by grabbing her by the shoulder and headbutting her. The helmet she wore formed cracks as she felt like she hit a stone wall. For a few moments, everything around her started to spin.

Michael sent her flying back to the castle with a single slap. Blood and Victoria's wisdom tooth gushed out of her mouth. The royal guards couldn't see their princess getting beaten to death. Although they were ordered to stay out of the battle, the loyal thusians broke the order for the sake of Victoria. All the twelve royal guards shot toward the sky with no fear but intense anger and killing intent in their eyes. Each of them was armed to the teeth and halberds engraved with various runes.

Unlike Victoria, the royal guards began to cast various spells. In a blink of an eye, Michael saw various shapes and forms made of Celestial energy materializing in front of his eyes. The spells lighted up the dark sky, and the boulders were the fireworks. Xanali leaped onto the air and caught Victoria in mid-air. The pressure began to get to Evan. Deep down, he wanted to get the hell out of the capital to save himself. However, the oath he took as a guardian prevented him from doing so. Contrary to the Thusian soldiers, he had no loyalty toward Thusia.

Even when Ghost wasn't casting any spells, Evan could feel immense pressure under the shield. The only silver lining was that at least Ghost didn't seem to have any intention of breaking the shield down. While Xanali was helping Victoria, Evan looked up at the sky to see the royal guards battling Ghost. The sky was littered with all the elements there were. Michael saw a lion made of fire roaring at him, a sword made of ice flying toward him, and ethereal hands trying to hold him down.

Michael didn't flinch an eye. He just floated in the air with his hands folded. Instead of wasting his energy defending, he let the spells hit him. One by one, the spells hit Michael. Of course, the Responsive shield appeared around Michael in the form of a translucent shield and absorbed the attacks completely. As a result, not even Michael's robes were harmed by the spells.

When all the shapes and forms disappeared from the sky, Michael shook his head disappointedly,

"What did you expect? You all come to the rescue of your princess like shining knights, eradicate evil and fly into the sunset?" Michael's words echoed through the capital.

"Life is all about making the right and wrong choices and living with the consequences. By coming to her rescue, you made the wrong choice, and the consequence is death,"

Since the royal guards were floating closer to Michael, they heard an otherworldly vibration in the air. The very next moment, two dark beams shot out of Michael's eyes. Those who were on the ground couldn't see the dark beams because of the dark sky above them. The dark beams went straight through a royal guard's head. He fell from the sky, and before the others could react, the beam took a sharp ninety-degree turn and pierced another soldier's head.

In a matter of seconds, the dark beams killed all the soldiers. Evan was unable to tell how these soldiers were killed. One moment they were floating in the air, and another, they fell from the air like dead bees. Everything happened so quickly. When Victoria opened her eyes, she saw her royal guards falling from the sky. She shook off Xanali's hands. Once again, she shot toward the sky.

This time, Michael didn't fight Victoria. Instead, he flew toward the golden dome. Dark flames enveloped his fists as he put on his hands. The shield trembled, creating several ripples. He slowly tore open the shield with his bare hands. The soldiers firing the trebuchets felt a chill.

"Everyone keeps firing. Do not let him through the shield. Mages, attack!" The minister of defense, Terrance, barked orders. At that moment, Victoria aimed to attack Michael from behind while the mages and the trebuchets hit Michael from the front. Yet, he ignored all of them. While tearing apart the shield, Michael turned back. The dark beams shot at Victoria. She reacted quickly and deflected the beams with her sword. She fought desperately to stop him from entering the shield. However, her attempts became futile as he slipped through the tear in the shield.

"Now let me slaughter your people before your eyes, just like your men did," said Michael, looking over his shoulder. The next moment, he dashed toward the war machines with speed beyond any mortal comprehension. Victoria was only able to see the afterimages left by him. Terrance's neck hair stood up. He may have decades of experience, the skill to operate under pressure, and Fusio Stage cultivation to back all of it up. But, in front of a Half Immortal, he was nothing. He only heard a whistling wind before everything turned dark. Michael didn't even know who this old man was. His head flew in the air with a single wind blade across his head. Michael landed right beside a trebuchet. Instead of casting a spell, Michael just punched the trebuchet toward the war machines behind it.

The trebuchet crashed into the others at the speed of a train. It destroyed everything in its path and the soldiers. Xanali managed to save some soldiers but lost many. Blood and fire flew all over the place. The images of Valeria flashed across her eyes. Seeing the destruction, the nobles screamed as they ran back into the castle for cover. Poor souls had no idea the castle was Michael's main target.

Victoria tried to keep up with Michael. She used Cosmic energy to match Michael's speed to stop the destruction. However, even with the Cosmic energy, she was too slow. Michael picked up a broken trebuchet and threw it at Victoria. Just like before, Victoria sliced through the machine.

"ARGH!" She screamed as she brought down the sword upon Michael. Michael simply grabbed the sword, but the shock wave sent everyone around them flying, including Xanali and Evan. Michael felt the Cosmic energy radiation from her body getting unstable by the second. It took great effort to keep himself from killing Victoria with a single punch. If he did that, it wouldn't be the proper revenge he had waited all these years for. The moment Michael grabbed the sword, he pulled it toward him. He grabbed Victoria's hand and began hitting her against the floor left and right like she was a piece of cloth.

After a while, Michael threw her toward the cluttered houses around the castle. Xanali noticed Ghost raising his hand toward the sky. Suddenly, she felt something strange. In the sky, several large fiery boulders slowly materialized. Evan's eyes widened in shock. The humongous size of the boulders cast shadows on the ground, darkening the city. Even from afar, everyone could feel the scorching heat. This meteor spell once belonged to Zakari, and now, Michael unlocked its true potential.
