Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 578: Arriving at Awor

By the time Michael returned to the castle, King Kramer and Queen Imat were waiting for him with a red-haired young man. He adorned matching fiery red robes and had a deviant look to him.         

    

"Ghost. Meet Moriet, King Kramer's long distant cousin," Queen Imat emphasized the word distant to Michael. By the look on her face, Michael could see the tension between the two.      

"Several miles distant," Moriet exclaimed with a mocking smile.     

"Pleasure to meet you Moriet," Michael firmly shook the young man's hands with a smile.     

"The pleasure is all mine. Let's sit, shall we?" they all plugged themselves onto the white sofa as the maids brought down several beverages, including orange juice for Michael.     

"It's so amazing to see such a young Fusion Stage cultivator. I thought all Fusion stage cultivators are old," Moriet laughed.     

"People say hardwood never fails but it's not true always. I mean, no matter how hard you cultivate, if you don't have luck, resources, and talent, you can't climb higher stages," Michael took a little sip of his orange juice and told Moriet.     

"That's true," Moriet nodded.     

"But it doesn't matter. If you can't get to the higher stages, enjoy what you have,"      

"Yeah right. Believe me or not, I live by those words. Look at me, I can't get past the Body Strengthening stage. I tried so many potions and stuff but I simply lack the talent. So now I'm focused more on enjoying the mortal pleasures instead of sitting in a room, cultivating," Michael noticed Queen Imat rolling her eyes, thinking no one had noticed her.     

"End of the day, enjoying the life all it matters," Michael pretended to agree with Moriet.     

"I am so glad to see someone who's powerful as you agree with my views. Now please tell me what kind of property you're looking for in Royal Land. I have several in the capital and I'd be happy to give one of it to you. I heard you wanted to offer a share?"     

Michael nodded.     

"That works great for me too. Now that I remember, one of your people came to me asking to buy one of my buildings n the capital. Pardon me for not agreeing then," Moriet apologized. He was a pervert who wanted to bed Raylene but he was not a fool to think about her anymore. As Moriet said, he valued his life, and touching a Fusion Stage cultivator's women would be like jumping into the fire. Therefore, Moriet erased the thought of touching Raylene.     

"It's okay. Is it still available? I'd appreciate it if I can use that building to open up another branch of Hades in Royal land,"     

"Consider the building is yours. I'll send one of my men to you with the deed,"     

"Wonderful," Michael grinned,     

"What about we celebrate it over a nice boat party?"     

Michael sighed after hearing Moriet. It's not that Michael was truly disappointed, but he pretended to be upset.      

As a Fusion Stage cultivator, Michel could kill Moriet without much worry. To be honest, Michael didn't think King Kramer would go to war with him if he killed Moriet. However, being strong didn't mean he should make more enemies. Instead, Michael chose to use his power to make more allies.     

"Unforuntaltey I have to go to Awor to attend the Aqua auction. But I give you my word, when I return, I'll definitely attend one of your parties. After all, we are kinda partners right now,"     

"Partners huh? I like the sound of that," Moriet clanked Michael's glass with his wine glass. Although Queen Imat was annoyed, King Kramer looked relieved. Finally, his good-for-nothing cousin got a powerful young man as a friend. King Kramer just couldn't help wishing Moriet would be like Ghost. Queen imat was Moriet's family but even she hated him to the core.     

But none of them noticed the Spyder crawling on Moriet's sleeves and disappearing into his collar. After everything was said and done, Michael departed from the castle, heading towards the Holy Church.     

In the mid-air, Gaya and Nightmare joined him.      

"What is this?" Michael wiped the cookie crumbs off her mouth. After Michael cleaned her mouth, she grinned from ear to ear. Her eyes were full of excitement, just like Nightmare.     

"So we are finally going to Awor huh?" asked Gaya. She rubbed her hands together in excitement. It had been so long since she returned to Awor. She couldn't help thinking of her kingdom; Nagaland, an island in the seas of Awor.         

    

"Aren't you guys missing something? You told me you would kill that guy who tried to creep on Raylene," Nightmare asked Michael and Gaya while slowly flying towards the holy church.     

"We will go to Awor and meet Eve. Then, teleport back to Royal Land, finish him off and return to Awor again. That way, no one will suspect us," Michael quickly explained to Nightmare on his way to the Holy Church.      

After several minutes of flying, the yellow maple valley appeared in their eyes. This time, they flew directly towards the Holy Church because Michael had the privilege to fly in the Church's vicinity.      

The teleportation portal was on the northern side of the castle where an enormous garden of roses surrounded the portal. The blue vortex was in the middle surrounded by hundreds of blood-red roses. A bald man approached Michael with a gentle smile when Michael, Nightmare, and Gaya landed on the garden pathway.     

"Believer Ghost. His Holiness asked me to give you access to the portal. I am believer Maxwell,"     

Michael bowed towards Maxwell and so did Nightmare and Gaya.     

"This is my fiance, Aelia, and my familiar, Nightmare. They are also loyal worshippers of the Great One and Two,"     

Maxwell was stunned to hear a dragon was actually a worshipper of the Great One and Two. But after hearing Ghost, Maxwell grinned so brightly.     

"It feels so great to see youngsters and a dragon believes in the Great One and Two. This world needs more people like you,"     

Gaya almost coughed blood and burst into laughter. One big donation and the entire Holy Church began to believe Michael was a true worshipper of their gods. To be honest, Michael was the last one who would believe in the Great One and Two. He was using these idiots but they had no idea. So instead, they believed Ghost to be a true believer.      

"The exit portal is located in Yaserius in Kingdom Thera,"     

"Wonderful," Michael was glad that the exit portal was on Yaserius, Eve's home city.  Otherwise, he would have had to fly from one city to Yaserius. He preferred to meet Eve first before starting to explore Awor.      

"Have a wonderful journey believer Ghost, believer Aelia, and believer Nightmare," Maxwell took time to bow towards each of them as they returned the gesture by bowing toward Maxwell.     

"May the Great One and Two be with you and guide you on your journey," Maxwell raised his palm, blessing the trio.     

Afterward, the trio approached the portal. The closer they got to the portal, the stronger they felt the pull.     

"We will meet again soon, believer Maxwell," Michael said looking over his shoulder before finally walking into the portal. After coming to this world, it took Michael almost two years to find time to visit Awor. However, thanks to his runic teleportation skill, he could go back and forth once he left a rune somewhere on Awor.     

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

Thera was a modest kingdom bordered by a calm sea to the north, rich forests to the south, a wide river to the east, and a large mountain to the West. Citizens of Kingdom Thera mainly lived off weaponsmithing, wine brewing, and blacksmithing.     

The kingdom's landscape was stunning; green, open fields, astonishing aquatic wildlife, and dramatic rock formations were just a sliver of the charm Thera has to offer, which was why the country was beloved among foreigners.     

The people of Thera were welcoming towards foreigners and tend to welcome them with friendliness. This was because they felt foreigners could fortify the kingdom's well-being.     

The city of Yaserius was built at the base of a modest mountain and was truly an evergrowing wonder. Its beauty was matched by the backdrop of ever-clear skies and the snowy mountain. The climate these skies brought was of great importance and also influenced the architectural designs as the vast majority of buildings were designed to take full advantage of the climate, as more daring elements could be created when you don't have to worry about strong winds.     

The skyline was riddled with towering tall buildings, and many seem to have evolved throughout the ages. The culture was rising in Yaserius and had attracted a lot of attention. Many new cultures had left their mark not just on trade and relations, but also on the city's identity. What historically was a city of elves has grown into a multicultural hub where humans, beast men, and elves co-exist peacefully.     

At that time, inside a brightly lit hall, Michael walked out of the portal along with Gaya and Nightmare. As soon as he stepped out of the portal, the trio was stunned by the man who welcomed them.     

"Maxwell?" Michael tilted his head, staring at the man from top to bottom.     

The man welcomed Michael, Gaya, and Nightmare looked exactly the same as Maxwell.         

    

"Believer Maxwell is my twin brother. I am believer Vishriyan. Welcome to Kingdom Thera," the man bowed and the trio did the same.     

"You must be believer Ghost,"      

Michael nodded, "Yes and this is my fiance Aelia and familiar Nightmare,"     

After exchanging pleasantries, Vishriyan finally led them towards the golden door. While walking towards the door, Michael felt the excitement coursing through his veins. It was time he dominated the most powerful continent in the world.
