Hitman With A Badass System

Michael returned to King Gunner's castle with the long bone of the Blood Prince. Yagnar, General Bryce, Davarius, and Gaya saw him and were surprised by the bone. Michael put the bone with a thud.

"When I asked you to pick one to board the ship, I thought you guys would pick someone who wouldn't blabber our plan to the thusians,"

The trio frowned.

"Master Ghost, what are you talking about?" asked General Bryce.

"I am not going to make a big deal out of it. But the thusians caught the two spies and beat them to death,"

Michael then turned his gaze toward Davarius.

"Your guy, on the other hand, was happy to entertain the thusians with all our plans. Starting from my involvement to how we reduced you,"

"What did you do?" asked Davarius. The others slightly trembled.

"Nothing. The thusians killed him," said Michael.

"Who's bone is this?" Yagnar asked Michael.

"A vampire's. Apparently, that son of a bitch Maxim made a deal with the vampires,"

"What?" General Bruce and Davarius almost shouted. They couldn't believe what they had just heard. Just these words were enough to make them feel like something was crawling on them. They were absolutely disgusted with Maxim. When they saw Michael grin, they were surprised even further. With a flick of his wrist, Michael took out a shiny blue crystal. He placed it on the table.

"Is that a recording crystal?" asked Gaya.

"Yep. That vampire was dumb enough to admit his dealings with MAxim. Now once the royal news, guardian guild, and the holy church receive this, they will come to fuck him up from all directions,"

"That's…" Davarius was stunned.

"That's great!" He shouted. They were excited to the point they had forgotten about the spies.

"What about the ships?" asked Gaya.

"I destroyed some, but that damn vampire stopped me from destroying the rest. Besides, those sneaky bastards ran away," said Michael.

"So we have to face their full wrath huh?" Yagnar sighed.

"Don't fret about it. We will have a fleet twice the size of Thusia when the time comes," said Michael.

"My lords," suddenly, a soldier entered the room. He came carrying a golden scroll.

"We received this just now,"

"Who is for, and who sent it?" asked Gaya.

"It's addressed for Master Ghost,"

Gaya took the scroll from the soldier and gave it to Michael.  Michael opened the parchment, wondering who had sent him this. However, he was pleasantly surprised when he laid his eyes on what was written on it.

"I need to meet my friend," said Michael. He turned his gaze toward the trio.

"Prepare an offense against the Thusians. It's time we take the fight to them,"

"And I will take care of this," Davarius took the recording crystal. Michael nodded and left the room with Gaya. When they disappeared from their sight, Michael used the runic teleporter to reach the Dark forest.

"What was that?" asked Gaya.

"The scroll. Who was it really from?"

"Saber. Elder Saber,"

Michael was just as surprised as Gaya. He didn't expect Saber to contact him like this. If he had to guess, Mciahel would tell the Blood Prince didn't know about this, or it might just be a trap. Either way, Michael wanted to meet Saber. According to the scroll, Saber would be waiting for Michael in the sky above King Gunner's castle in two hours.

Gaya snatched the scroll and read it. She creased her brows,

"Why did he want to meet you in the daytime? I know it's not sunny out there but still,"

"Let's go see what he has to say," said Michael. Gaya thought about meeting Saber. It took her a few minutes to agree. On his way to meet Azazel in the surveillance room, Michael told Gaya about his battle with the Blood Prince. He wanted Azazel to monitor the vampire castle cautiously to learn their next moves.

At that moment, Michael was standing in his room alone. Gaya was with Nightmare in King Gunner's castle. She decided to plan a crushing offensive attack against the THusians.

"System, I have a bone of a Half Immortal. Can I kill Immortals with it?" asked Michael.

[You can, but not the others. What you have is a bone of a Half immortal. To kill the Immortals, you need a weapon made of Immortal bones. But since you have a Primordial Flame, you can cover the weapon made from a Half Immortal bone and use it to kill an Immortal] said the system. Michael stared at the bone in his hand. He wondered how to forge a weapon out of this bone. He needed to find a blacksmith who could.

[Unfortunately, your Dark FLames are too powerful. They will melt the bone in a few minutes. Only a few metals could withstand the Dark Flames' heat. The system suggests the host buy an ore, find a blacksmith and forge a weapon]

Michael sighed. Even if he wanted to, he had no badass points to buy an Ore. The system required five million badass points for an ore large enough to make two swords. After purchasing the ore, he was required to have a five-star blacksmith.

"How many points do I need to become a blacksmith myself?" Michael asked, fiddling with the bone. Along with his inventor trait, Michael could forge many new weapons that could give him an edge against his foes. So rather than finding a blacksmith, Michael decided to become one himself.

[The system can offer you the 5-sta Blacksmith trait for ten million badass points]

Michael raised his brows. The price was simply outrageous. But deep down, he knew it would be worth it.

"Let's put a pin in there. I think I'll be able to afford it after the war,"

[Great]

After exiting the system, Michael prepared to leave to meet Saber. He willed the system to teleport him back to King Gunner's castle. When he arrived in his room, he flew out of it through the window. He shot into the sky higher and higher until he flew past the clouds.

"You're here," Michael heard Saber's voice. He turned around to see Saber floating in the air with a dark umbrella in his hand.

Michael greeted the vampire with a smile.

"What's so special about today? Earlier, I met your blood prince, and now you," said Michael.

Hearing Michael's words, Saber did not seem surprised. Instead, he sighed.

"I apologize for what happened in the castle. Let's just say not all of the elders approved of the Blood Prince's actions. But if you met the blood prince and you're still alive, that could mean one thing," Saber stared at Michael from top to bottom. Michael noticed Saber was trying to hide the shock and surprise from showing in his eyes.

"Next time you see him, don't be surprised if he doesn't have his right arm. Now tell me Elder Saber, why did you want to meet me? Since I am in a middle of a war, I'd appreciate it if you don't beat around the bush,"

Elder Saber nodded.

"I want more potions you gave us at the castle. In return, you can name your price. I prepared a selling pitch, but this is the gist of it," said Saber.

A few months ago, Saber would have dealt with Michael differently. But since he had not only reached the Half Immortal stage but also beaten up the Blood Prince, Saber chose his words carefully. He didn't dare to show any disrespect.

"You know the blood prince asked the same. Only he wanted to either turn me or kill me. I am not saying this deal won't happen, but I need something first. Think of it as goodwill for almost killing me when I came to you,"

"What do you need?" asked Saber. He lived long enough to tell if someone was about to ask something. Judging by the look in Ghost's eyes and that wry smile on his face, it was obvious to Saber.

"I need an Immortal killing weapon. If you can get me one in let's say, two days, we can move on with this deal,"

To Michael's surprise, Saber didn't even flinch as though he was expecting it.

"How do I trust you won't back off from the deal once you get the weapon or just kill me?"

"Trust, Saber. You came here in daylight to prove you don't want a fight, and I am standing here doing nothing for the same reason as you. Besides, you know how valuable those potions are. So I'd say you have no choice either,"

Saber knew it was true. That potion could change the fate of their entire kind. He had been working to find a solution for their weakness of sunlight for ages. The closer he got to a solution was the potion that Ghost offered them. They would have gotten more potions if it weren't for the Blood Prince's stupid act.

When Ghost came to them, they had the upper hand in the negotiations. But it wasn't the case anymore. Saber cursed the Blood Prince in his mind.

"I will meet you here with what you asked in two days," said Saber. Michael was delighted by Saber's answer. He preferred to go with as many options as possible. Once he had received the weapon, he would have two weapons that could kill Maxim Barnes.

"Wonderful. Also, the Blood Prince was working with King Maxim. A bit of free advice, working with him always ends in trouble. Thought you should know that," Michael said, turning around. He vanished from Saber's eyes.

"Working with King Maxim huh?" Saber smirked.

"I have to investigate this," Saber said to himself. Suppose he planned everything correctly, Saber could soon get rid of the Blood Prince. He was more of a nuisance and obstacle to the vampire kind than a help. That was the main reason he quickly agreed to give an Immortal killing weapon to Ghost. The two of them already had a history. Saber wished Ghost to kill the Blood Prince with the weapon. Then, everything would go back to the way it was.

This time with the potions Ghost has, Saber could take over the vampire castle. It was indeed a risk, but Saber was willing to take this risk.
