Hitman With A Badass System

He was leading the kids to the village when he saw Gaya, Cindy, her mother, and the baby in midway.

"ROY!"

"CINDY!"

The girl shouted at the boy as the children quickly ran towards Cindy and her mother crying and sobbing.

"Young master Riyan"

Cindy's mother came to him and she couldn't hold back her tears looking at the lifeless body of Riyan.

"It was a good thing you came here, the kids shouldn't see the village, they have already been through enough"

"Thank...thank you, young master"

"No"

Michela shook his head and stepped back when she crouched to grab his legs to thank him.

"Just take care of them, I will be back soon"

Gaya too followed him right behind to the village leaving everyone behind.

"It was the Blood and bones sect, human"

"Why?"

"The reason was a surprisingly simple one, human, according to the woman, the blood and bones sect was taking their coins in the name of protection fee"

"Protection from what?"

"From nothing, they were just using the reason to milk these villagers, and recently they raised the protection fee "

She air quoted the words protection fee and continued

"The woman said they were barely able to pay the previous fee but when they raised it, they simply couldn't scrape together enough coins, so they asked for more time"

"They didn't give time, did they?"

Gaya shook her head hearing him

"Yes, instead of giving them time, those f**kers decided to use the villagers as human dummies and let their students practice spells on them"

Because she was walking behind him, she was unable to see the killing intent in his eyes as she went on.

"If it wasn't for the human in your arms who killed some of their students and led the remaining children away from the village, those tiny humans would be dead too. What are you planning to do, human? "

"First, I should bury those people, they deserve proper burials and I will give it to them"

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

At the moment, Gaya felt thirsty and tired just by looking at him digging hole after hole and burying each and every villager after wrapping them in white clothing.

"Why are you doing this human? You don't know these people, you already used a valuable healing potion by saving that tiny human and its mother"

"It's not much Gaya, this is just a basic humanity, where I come from, there are at least people there to give the dead a proper burial, I don't think that's true here, tell me I'm wrong"

"I don't know where you came from human, but here, this how things are, in this place, there's only one rule, the rule of the jungle, if you are not a predator, you're a prey"

Micheal took a deep breath and stabbed the shovel into the ground as Gaya noticed the look of unwavering determination on his face.

"Then I will be the strongest, most powerful predator this world has ever seen and hunt every dirtbag in this world"

[Ding, Congratulations to the host for setting a goal. The host will receive a reward of 450 badass points and a healing potion ]

Little by little, he started to apprehend the reason when he was sent to this world with the system. Until now, he had never thought that this world would be this much messed up where the strong could hunt down and massacre people like they were nothing.

In his previous life, every person he killed was a crook or criminal in some way that they were better dead than alive to the world, not once in his life he took an innocent life, even a hitman like him had a moral code but the cultivators in this world had nothing, not even a shred of mercy towards these poor people. He knew the little girl Cindy must have walked for hours to reach the guild and ask for help but none of them were willing to help her but only tried to chase her away.

If someone like Riyan came sooner than he did, they could have saved more lives, saved more children. If he was on earth, he would have paid a hefty sum to these people and left because he had no power back there to change the entire world, he was just a human but in this world, he had the means to be the strongest, he had the most powerful weapon in this world, the system.

The remaining bit of Abras's soul changed the way Micheal looked at this world and influenced his mindset. After burying all these people, he understands his place in this world and realized what he needs to do.

"I'm going to do what I do best, kill people"

"System, how many points to upgrade the energy shield?"

[Level 2 of the Responsive Energy Shield will be able to completely block all the Body Refining stage and Body Strengthening level 2 attacks.1500 points required to upgrade to level 2]

"Do it"

He didn't need another offensive type of skill or to upgrade the Ignitia as he had the knife to kill anyone under the Body Strengthening stage level 6.

In an all-out fight, the shield would be a lifesaver so he didn't hesitate to spend the points and upgrade it.

"Gaya, did you ask the woman the location of the sect?"

"Don't be rash, human, although this sect was newly founded one, the woman said the sect leader is a body strengthening level 2 cultivator"

She thought he would be afraid or at least slightly shaken but unexpectedly, he was grinning.

"It seems the universe itself want me to kill them"

When he decided to upgrade his shield, he had never guessed it would make him invincible before them. With his shield, even their strongest, the sect master himself wouldn't be able to stop him from exterminating them.

"Gaya"

His grin disappeared and replaced by a stern look

"From this moment, on my path, I will kill a whole lot of people and make many enemies, probably powerful ones, so if you want, you can leave"

He was 99.9% sure that she wouldn't leave but he wanted to warn her and if she chose to leave, he would let her.

"What the f**k are you talking about? Without my cultivation, Nagas would eventually find and kill me or worse"

She sighed and continued

"but with you, at least I have a chance to repair my cultivation and kill that bitch, so, this princess will stay with you "

"Good choice, stick with me and I will not only heal you, but I will also help you take your revenge, deal?"

He reached his hand out as Gaya shook his hand with an ear to ear grin on her face.

After burying the final body, he cleaned the sweat and stench off his body by bathing in the well and dried his clothes and body by creating hot air around him using the Arch Energy.

"Let's go"

He took Gaya and went on his way to meet the children and the woman on the outskirts of the village.

"Young master, young miss"

When the woman saw him and Gaya, she came running. Most of the children were sleeping while the baby in her arms seemed tired of crying in hunger.

"Is there any place you can take kids and settle down?"

"No...young master"

The woman shook her head as tears started to flow out from her eyes thinking about their future without her husband to provide for them.

"System, do you have grocery items and utensils to cook?"

[The host should know by now that if the host has badass points, the system can provide the host anything]

"Alright, alright"

The woman was startled looking at the vegetables, bags of rice, and utensils appearing out of nowhere before them.

"Don't refuse, take this and start cooking, when I come back, I will help you find a new place to settle down"

He wiped the tears off the woman's face as the woman nodded and let out a gentle smile.

"Young master, what do we call our savior?"

Gaya looked forward to hearing his name since he had never told her his name and obviously Ghost was not his name.

"I'm what exist and doesn't exist, You can call me Ghost"

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 50 badass points and a teleportation scroll]
