Hitman With A Badass System

Zakari and Austin left for the Rainbow islands with one goal: to take Lailah's child with them. They completely covered their bodies with dark robes to hide their identities. Using a teleportation portal, they managed to reach the outskirts of the rainbow island when the sun was setting down on the horizon. The two of them hovered in the air, staring at the island. Until now, no one entered the rainbow islands with ill intentions. First, Lailah didn't have any enemies. She was a pretty private secluded person. Second, no one wanted to piss off a powerful Fusion stage cultivator like Lailah Alden. Third, except for the specialty that Lailah was living on the island, there was nothing special about the island. It was just a fishing island with peaceful fishermen living on it.

​ "How do we do this?" asked Austin.

"I think stealth is the best option. Let's wait for nightfall, and we strike," said Zakari.

"Meanwhile, it's better if we do some recon,"

Austin nodded. The two of them slowly flew toward the island. Since the people living on the island were just simple fishermen, they didn't sense Austin and Zakari. They flew through the canopy and used the forest to hide. The two of them made their way toward the mountain peak where Lailah Alden lived. Instead of flying, they chose to move towards it fastly.

"According to my guys, she has two disciples on this island," said Austin.

"Johana and Nerita. Two orphans. Picked up from the streets and raised by Lailah,"

"How strong are they?" asked Zakari.

"Before the void effect, they were seen at Soul Refining stage level 3," said Austin.

"It's safe to assume they are a couple of levels higher now,"

Austin nodded. The forest was deadly silent. Except for the sound of crickets and the twigs breaking under Austin and Zakari's footsteps, they heard nothing.

"Can you believe Ghost banged Lailah? Lucky bastard," Austin exclaimed.

"He didn't. He soul walked her. They must have been stuck in some weird situation to go for that," said Zakari.

The two discussed Ghost and Lailah while moving through the forest.

"What's the plan if anyone finds us? Are we allowed to kill them or just knock them out?" asked Austin.

"No killing. We don't want any of this to come biting our asses later,"

Eventually, the two of them reached the base of the mountain. Since it was night, there was no one in the area to see them. All the inhabitants of the island went to sleep. Austin and Zakari slowly ascended toward the mountain's top. They saw a cave opening at the top leading into the mountain where Lailah lived.

To their surprise, the moment they climbed to the top of the mountain, they saw two young girls at the cave entrance with veenas. Austin and Zakari suppressed their auras. Therefore, they were bewildered. They had no idea how the two girls sensed them.

"You have a minute to leave this place," Johana growled.

"Oh shit," Austin mumbled under his breath. Since they got caught, they had no choice but to fight them. Booth would forgive them if they took the child. Otherwise, he would flay them alive just because they got caught by the girls.

"If you take a walk for a minute, no one will get hurt," said Zakari.

Seeing no response coming from the two girls, Zakari sighed.

"I thought so,"

"Fire-" Zakari was about to cast a spell when the two girls played a string of their veenas. A powerful gust of wind knocked them into the air. It took Zakari and Austin a few minutes to balance themselves in the air. By playing a single string, the girls knocked them out. The two generals were startled by their sheer power. However, they weren't afraid of the two girls. Instead, battle lust glistened in their eyes.

Zakari was tempted to use the meteor spells. However,  he controlled himself, imagining the destruction it would cause. He wanted to take the child alive. If he used the meteor spell, that might become a problem. Zakari and Austin dashed toward Johanna and Nerita.

The two girls played a powerful melody as a heat wave pushed Zakari and Austin backward.

"King's shield," Zakari and Austin cast a defense shield. A bright light shot out of Zakari and Austin, forming an energy shield in the shape of a crown. The energy crown surrounded them. With the shield around them, Austin and Zakair slowly pushed forward.

On the other hand, Johanna and Nerita ascended into the air with their veenas. They continued to play the veenas. Each time they struck a chord, a powerful wave of energy hit the shield around Zakari and Austin. When the shield and the wave clashed, the shield formed several cracks.

The powerful melody reverberated through the air, waking the animals in the forest. Even the snowfall seemed to have been stopped by the melody. While Xakari was keeping the shield up, Austin summoned his silver spear. He threw the spear through the energy waves produced by the two girls. As soon as the spear left his hand, another one materialized in his hand. The spear he threw soared through the air and penetrated the ground several inches away from Johanna.

Suddenly, the spear exploded, temporarily stunning the two girls. They did not expect the spear to explode. Before the two girls could retaliate, Austin darted forward like an arrow with the spear in his hand. He quickly closed the gap between him and the girls. As soon as he got close to them, the girls lost their advantage. Austin swung his spear left and right.

"Ah!" The spear cut Johanna's hand.

He wanted to stab the girl through her heart, and he almost did when Nerita struck a chord to push him back.

Johana gritted her teeth and struck the string as another powerful wave blasted Austin away. The two girls had the chance to take the battle to a different area. However, they always looked over their shoulder at the cave opening as though they had something to protect. Zakari smiled. Judging by their look, it was obvious the spirit child was inside.

Meanwhile, Austin rapidly threw the spear toward them and made them explode. This time, the girls quickly formed golden shields around them. Every time a spear exploded, it created a crack in their shields. Zakari and Austin put the two girls in defense as they moved closer and closer to the cave's mouth.

"Star fire," Zakari raised his arms, casting a spell. The Cosmic energy shot out of his body, forming a giant star above them. The star fired several arrows engulfed in fire at the girls. These arrows penetrated their shields as more and more cracks formed in the shield.

Johana began to play the veena faster. The gentle melody put the animals in the forest back to sleep. Their music created a ripple in the sky. Soon, Zakari and Austin felt being pulled up into the sky. They resisted the pull by using Cosmic energy. A thin veil of violent energy enveloped their bodies.

Austin gritted his teeth. He poured his Cosmic energy into the spear. As a result, the spear trembled uncontrollably.

"ARGH!" Austin roared, raising his spear in the air. Johana and Nerita saw multiple spears appear around Austin. They all slowly turned their pointy ends at them. In a blink of an eye, all the spears shot toward them. The golden shield withstood a couple of spears, but when the fifth one hit the shield, it shattered into millions of tiny specks of golden light.

The backlash sent Nerita and Johana stumbling back. This time, Zakari did not allow them to fight back. He dashed forward, conjuring a sword made of red-hot flames. Zakari left a fiery trail behind. Austin immediately dashed away from Zakari's path but not before he dipped his spear in flames radiating from the sword.  He threw the flaming spear. The spear exploded as countless flaming pieces hit Nerita and Johanna.

Nerita and Johana almost lost their grip around the veenas. The specks of fire burned through their clothes and skin. They couldn't even scream as Zakari swung his fiery sword left and right. These flames were not just typical flames but flames created by Cosmic energy. Each of Zakari's swings was precise and deadly. He cut the veenas in half like a hot knife through butter.

A light bright enough to make all of them shut their eyes tight appeared from the two veenas. Immediately, Nerita and Johanna coughed up blood. When the light disappeared, they fell down to the ground. Austin did not spare them as he landed on Nerita's back and stomped her.

"Hey," Zakari yelled.

"I am just knocking her out," Austin grinned devilishly.

"Bastard!" Johana screamed, only to get a boot to her face.

Austin enjoyed beating up the two girls. Nerita tried to crawl toward the cave mouth to stop the two, but everything turned darker when Zakari kicked her head. She was knocked out cold. Austin turned around to see the two girls. He was tempted to throw them down from the mountain.

"We are not killing them," Zakari growled.

"Sisters," Suddenly, they heard a child's voice resonate in the cave. The voice was sweet and gentle yet domineering at the same time. Zakari felt a strange power in the voice. The voice snuffed out the flaming sword in an instant. A sliver of fear emerged in his heart for some reason.

He slowly stepped into the dark cave, followed by Austin. The two of them tried not to make any sound.

"Where are you?" The child's playful voice echoed through the cave.

"Is it only me, or this kid is kinda freaky?" asked Austin. Just like Zakari, Austin too felt a strange power in the child's voice.

The closer they got to the end of the cave, the louder footsteps sounded. The child's chuckle kept echoing through the cave. The two of them never thought a chuckle would freak them out. Ignoring the fear in their hearts, they kept walking deeper into the cave.

Taking the child with them might put an end to Ghost's terrorizing rein. Compared to Edith's plan, Zakari liked threatening Ghost with his child more.
