Hitman With A Badass System

In the early morning, golden light dribbled over the land like syrup on oatmeal. The leaves shimmered like a mirror flecked mosaic and the morning dew sparkled on the jade green grass. Michael was standing on the tallest mountain peak of the Sunrise sect. He enjoyed the moment of peace and calm before the big day.

"How do I look?" He heard Gaya's voice coming from behind. Without even turning back, he could sense her delight in her heart through her voice.

Yesterday he realized why most men hesitate to go to clothing stores with women. He at least went to twelve clothing stores in Royal land. She spent hours in each store. It took him less than an hour to buy four sets of clothes while she took an entire day to get two. Before yesterday. Gaya never focused on menial things such as fancy clothes. However, yesterday she went all in. More than she liked shopping, she liked to chill out with Michael without worrying about their plans.

For the first time since he came to this world, Michael wore a cloth set that didnt come from the system store. His long-sleeved, leather jacket covered him to just below his waist and was almost completely buttoned up at the left side. The sleeves of his jacket were a loose fit, reaching down to well below his hands, they were decorated with a single thread lining at the sleeve ends.

The jacket had a deep, rectangular neckline which revealed part of the grey elegant shirt worn below it and was worn with a wide rope belt, which was held together by a big belt buckle. The rope belt was almost entirely a functional addition.

His pants were simple, a comfortable fit, reaching down to his hide boots. The boots were made from a rare hide, but otherwise a common design. Except for the shirt, everything was black.

His sculpted muscles made him extra handsome in the clothes.

"Hellooo" She called again to get his attention. What happened yesterday kept bugging him. After she called him again, he finally turned back to be startled by her beauty.

Her fancy dress flowed from top to bottom and had a draped neckline, which lightly revealed the modest dress worn below it. The exquisite, tightly tied fabric of her dress covers her stomach where the continuous flow was broken up by a light leather belt worn quite high around her waist.

Below the leather belt, the dress opened up to the left, revealing the dress below. The front of the top dress was shorter at the front and curved outwards, the back continued to flow a short length behind her, ending in a narrow rectangle.

Her sleeves were longer than her arms and a comfortable fit, their flow was broken up above the elbow where they change color and where they're divided by dark, elegant bands, these were the same fabric and color used to outline the bottom and neckline of the dress. Just like Michael, she too chose to wear black.

Although the dress was beautiful, it was the girl who is wearing the dress that elevated the beautiful dress to artistic.his occupied mind was completely blanked by her angelic beauty. He could see her real face as she didn't wear the mask to put on Aelia's face. Looking at her, he couldn't help wondering if the gods personally sculpted this beauty before sending her to this world. There were no fitting adjectives to describe her beauty in his mind.

She squinted at him with one eye playfully.

"It's natural to be speechless" she proudly said as Michael gently smiled, forgetting what was on his mind for a moment.

"You look beautiful" Michael walked towards her before pulling her closer to him by her waist.

"Scars are cool, human" she gently headbutted him.

"We'll talk about that later. Now let's go open our restaurant" Both of them slowly ascended to the sky.

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

The entire river town was in a festive mood. The streets were filled with people in colorful dresses, carrying name boards saying Ghost, Aelia, and Sunrise sect. The morning light didn't stop them from painting the sky with colorful fireworks. Children sitting on the shoulders of their father wore black dresses to look like Ghost.

When Michael arrived at river town, he saw lines of noble carriages coming towards the restaurant.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The fireworks exploded in the sky above the restaurant. In addition to carriages, numerous pegasus were flying from all directions towards the restaurant. The restaurant building was currently covered in a giant red cloth.

"Look over there!"

"HEYYYYYYY!"

"GHOST!"

"AELIA!"

"RIVER TOWN!"

"GHOST GHOST GHOST!"

The moment they descended to the point the people noticed, the cheers erupted like a bubbling volcano. The people cheered as loud as they could.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 1000 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 2000 badass points]

…

The notifications sounded just as loud as these people, almost giving him a headache. In a couple of minutes, he earned more than 20,000 badass points. The adventurers who were hired to keep the crowd in control were having trouble keeping the people in line. It has been three months since the people of the river town saw him, in three months' time, the river town's economy and status were elevated significantly.

The scene reminded Michael of all the red carpet events. In fact, his last assassination back on earth had celebrities and fans who behaved just like the river town's people. On earth, he remained in the shadows, in this world, he was standing right in the spotlight.

The restaurant was built on elevated land so the diners could have a better view of the river. The elevated land was designed in the shape of a heptagon with a staircase on two opposite sides. Right at the moment, the river town people were on one side while the nobles were using the other to enter the restaurant.

"Ghost Ghost Ghost!" among the crowd, a boy was screaming Michael's name. The little kid wore the miniature version of a neo costume to cosplay as him. He was standing relatively close to the front line

Before climbing the stairs, Michael reached to grab the kid. His father was stunned but didn't stop Michael from taking the kid.

"How are you, little buddy?"

The kid was speechless as Michael retrieved a quill from his space ring.

"I want to be like you when I grow up," the kid said,

"Work hard, cause less trouble for your parents and you will be just like me," Michael said, signing his name on the kind's shirt in white considering the kid's clothes were black. After handing over the kid back to his father, Michael and Gaya continued to talk to some of the people before climbing the stairs to the restaurant.

"Wind Blast" Michael sent a gentle gush of wind blast to calm the people. The sudden wind produced a howling sound, instantly silencing the people.

"People of River town" Michael began to speak. His voice was amplitude by Arch energy to sound loud so the entire river town could hear him.

"It's been almost a year since I came to River town. Although it's a short amount of time, I have nothing but great memories here. That was why I decided to open my first business in River town. This is a starting point of river town's glory as 20% of my restaurant's earnings will be used to develop river town"

The cheers erupted the moment they heard Michael donating twenty percent of the earnings to their town.

"The Sunrise sect will build new roads, bring more job opportunities through new business, cultivating the lands around the town so all the ingredients needed to run the restaurant will be cultivated and bought from river town"

The cheers kept erupting nonstop. The people became extremely excited and happy. Some of them even shed tears in overwhelming joy.

"I can list what we are planning for the river town all day. But actions speak louder than words, so let the action begin. People welcome to The Majestic Hades" As he said, Michael turned back, pointing his finger at the clothes. A bolt of lightning shot from his fingertip to light red clothes in the fire. He specially bought this cloth from the system store. The bright red flames burned as it looked like the building had a crown made of flames. The flames only lasted for a few moments before fading into nothingness, showing the name board and the restaurant building.

The name 'The Majestic Hades' was etched on the building's top with golden letters. Finally, after six months of building and preparing for the launch, they opened up the restaurant.

"Also my dear people of the river town, you don't need to treat me like a celebrity. I don't want any fan clubs or this kind of parade for me every time I visit the town. Focus on your life, work hard, take care of the people around you. That will make me proud. Now carry on with your lives"

As much as Michael loved to be the badass in the spotlight, he didn't want to be swarmed with crazy fans everywhere he goes. That would affect his productivity. Remaining in shadows would not work in his favor in this world because it wouldn't earn him as many badass points as he actually needs. However, becoming too famous at this point in his life wasn't his plan either. Expanding his power too quickly would draw out the attention of unnecessary foes. He had to make every single move with utmost caution to remain safe until he reached the point that no one could harm him.
