Hitman With A Badass System

After sending Decimus, Dillia, and their baby down into the lower decks, Michael sat on the throne. His throne was located just before the captain's cabin. The Senators were lined up in front of him, they were made to kneel down. Connors remained a couple of meters back from the senators.

"Where are we?"

"Let us go,"

"Whoever you are, you just made a huge mistake"

Few of the senators dared to threaten Michael. Since they were blindfolded, they didn't see his frightening figure.

At the moment, Michael's full focus was on Vibius and Connors. Of course, Michael had no idea about Connors's deeds. If he knew Connors killed Jack, Connors would have been bleeding on the floor. While he was waiting for Gibson and Maxine, Michael closed his eyes, calming himself down. He could feel the bloodlust inside him yet again.

"System, when will you have the answers to my problems?" Michael asked the system. When he upgraded the system, he thought he would have his answers. However, the system asked him to upgrade it once again but the system gave him no guarantee that it would have answers for his third persona problem if he upgraded it.

He was asking questions related to his bloodlust. He got no answers except the system's notification, asking him to upgrade it.

[Please upgrade the system!]

[System level is too low to answer the host]

"What about the other matter? Do you have the schematics and the parts?"

[Ofcourse, the schematics and the parts would cost the host 10,000 badass points]

After upgrading Inventor skill to star level 4, he got 200,000 badass points. To upgrade the skill to 5-star, the system required 180,000 points. Because he had to go to a new realm, he decided to save enough points. The 10,000 points for the schematics and the parts were absolutely necessary. The device in his mind required one important resource that he lacked until now. If he could build the device, it would give him a huge advantage over the Guardians in the Southern Continent.

"If I'm right, I can build seven devices with the parts. But I still need more of them to make the device work"? As he was thinking about the new device, he saw Gibson and Maxine climb out of the lower decks. Gibson seemed more relaxed. When he issued the order to kill Dillia, Michael noticed Gibson's face become pale. Obviously, Gibson was questioning his judgment to follow Lucifer at that moment. Although Gibson was a pirate, he wasn't cutthroat or an evil person. Michael knew he was a soldier before becoming a pirate. If he ordered to kill Decimus, Gibson wouldn't have felt a thing because Decimus was trying to screw things up for Michael. But, Dillia and the baby were innocent, they did nothing to him. Hence, when Michael ordered Maxine to kill Dillia and injected the baby with something, Gibson was startled.

As usual, Michael expected everything. Hence, he ordered Maxine to reveal everything to Gibson when they were away from the Senators.

He was ruthless but not evil to inject the baby with poison. Decimus would forever be afraid of Lucifer thinking his child could die any moment if he messed with Lucifer again. The child however was injected with nothing but water.

"It's done, my lord" When she came to his side, Maxine said with enough volume to let everyone hear her. She stood on his right side while Gibson stood on the left side.

"Take off their blindfolds," Michael asked as Maxine nodded before making her way to the senators. In a few moments, she removed all the blindfolds, letting the Senators finally take a look at where they are and who they are dealing with.

The five senators blinked several times to make their vision clear. After a few moments, their eyes landed on Lucifer.

Gasp!

The moment they saw him sitting on his frightening throne made of skulls and bones, they gasped in shock. Their bodies began to shiver.

"Shut their mouths, they don't need to speak" Michael ordered Maxine.

While they were still in shock, Maxine used the cloth that was used as the blindfold to cover their mouth.

"Not him and him" When she was about to wrap the blindfold around Vibius's mouth, he stopped her.

The other senators turned sideways to see Vibius. They were slightly relieved for a moment but seeing Vibius was also tied just like the rest of them, they started to panic.

"Senator Vibius and Guardian Connors," Connors was stunned as black lines appeared on his forehead. He couldn't guess how Lucifer knew about his identity. Instinctively he looked down to see his space ring missing.

Michael stared at the scared faces of the senators for a few moments,

"On second thoughts" With a flick of his wrist, he took syringes filled with emerald green liquid out of his space ring.

"Hrrmmmm" some of the senators squirmed in fear. Connors and Vibius stared at the syringes slowly floating towards the senators. They stopped in the air a couple of inches away from the senators for a moment.

Pulch!

Then several seconds later, each of the senators was stabbed by a syringe. In a few blinks of an eye, all the senators collapsed onto the floor.

Vibius felt dread in his core. He wasn't sure if they were alive or dead. Since he saw issuing an order to kill a commoner and poisoning a baby, Vibius didn't lean much on the side of the senators being alive.

"You've been a bad boy Senator Vibius. Sending troops to harass the border soldiers of Gisel, ordering the soldiers to wipe out a few villages, buying hundreds of slaves, and robbing people of their freedoms, the list goes on"

He was disgusted by Vibius. The only reason Michael had not killed him yet was the item he received from Vibius. He then turned his gaze towards Connors,

"Tell me, Guardian Connors, you people calling me evil, demon, and Dark Lord. Is he not evil?" Michael pointed at Vibius,

"He would have been evil if he wasn't much use to your guild, am I right?"

The Guardian Guild disgusted him the most, even more than Vibius or any slave traders in Southern Continent. If he could, he would wipe out the entire Guardian guild in front of Noah and Andreas's eyes. He wanted to prove the Guardian Guild was nothing but a corrupted organization filled with scumbags. Compared to them, the Order of Death didn't look evil at all.

Connor didn't answer but stared at him without uttering a word. He was thinking of a way to leave this place alive. As far as Connor could tell, if Lucifer could kill an innocent woman and poison her baby, killing him would not be hard at all.

As he was remaining without uttering a word, he saw the woman walking towards him.

Bam!

Vibius saw Connors's two molars flying out of his mouth along with blood and saliva. Maxine's punch was so powerful that it made Connors's face hit the ground hard.

"Lord Lucifer asked you a question"

"(cough) (cough) Arghh" Connors coughed up a mouth full of blood. He felt an excruciating pain in his mouth due to the sudden removal of the molars.

"I know I am right," Michael calmly said. He didn't mind Maxine punching Connors. Her loyalty and the way she acted made him happy. She was shaping up to be a loyal and powerful bodyguard. Her loyalty to him was unparalleled. Just his look was enough for her to understand his intentions.

She was one of the reasons that he wanted to build the device as soon as possible before he leaves for Akilan Realm.

"The two of you should tell me everything you know about this"? Michael flicked his wrist yet again. This time, instead of a syringe, the crystal Vibius received appeared in his hand.

After he reached Maven, he planned to kidnap all the senators and subdue them except Vibius. When he sent the Spyders into Vibius's manor, he was surprised to see the senator talking with a guardian. What surprised him more was the crystal he saw in Connors's hands.

While they were unconscious, Michael was studying the crystal. It was pure Arch energy. He had never expected to see a pure Arch energy source such as the crystal. Unlike Vibius and Connors were thinking, the crystal did not contain arch energy within. The crystal itself was Arch energy. The Crystal was a crystallized form of Arch energy.

A pure source of Arch energy was the object that he lacked to build a device that would enable all of Michael's subordinates to use spells in the Southern continent. The Crystalized Arch energy could not be directly absorbed completely. The Arch energy radiation could help cultivators cast weak spells. That's how Connors was able to conjure fire sparks holding the crystal.

The device Michael was planning to build would help the subordinates or whoever wearing the device absorbs Arch energy. This would help them cultivate in the Southern continent without crossing the void line.

If his subordinates absorbed enough Arch energy from the crystal with the help of his device, they could reach the Body Strengthening stage. The higher stages of cultivation would require them to absorb thousands of crystal stones such as the one in his hand. Unless there was another type or more powerful crystals in the place where Vibius got the crystal, giving subordinates thousands of crystals would not be very efficient.

"Where did you get this crystal?" Michael asked. His voice was cold as it sent a chill running through Vibius's spine.

Vibius's heart shuddered. The crystal was supposed to be his way to reach the top in life. He planned to use the crystals as a bargaining chip to get help from the Guardians and conquer all the Southern continent.

However, if Lucifer took over the Stormveil mountain, his dream of becoming the ruler of the Southern continent would be shattered.

Vibius was stuck in a conundrum, if he didnt tell where he got the Crystal, Lucifer would take over the mountain which would make him the ruler of the Southern Continent. If he did not tell him, Lucifer would either torture him or just kill him.

"I can lie to him or tell him the truth but what if he kills me afterward?" Vibius questioned himself. In a split second, he had an idea. contemporary romance

"Unless I make him trust me"

The medallion of the Order of Death appeared in his mind.
