Assassination System: Vengeance

Chapter 5

"Just die, you bastards!" Seth cursed with the rest of his strength. The voices weakened and hoarse. 

The flood of blood flowed from all the sources of wounds. The thick and hot red liquid grieved his eyes.

Seth's pointed nose bleeding, and his scalp stinging.

The sensation of torture piercing every inch of his skin defeated Seth's common sense. A violent cough still attacked, and blood splashed from his mouth.

His entire body shivered cause of being hit by the brutal pressure waves from all his injuries.

Seth held onto his broken ribs and lay on the asphalt. 

His empty gazed look at the night sky.

It felt like death was in front of his eyes.

[ If only. If another life, I was still given a chance to live. I swear, I won't let you go. I will hunt you down and kill you one by one! ]

Castor chuckled wickedly. He removed the cigar from his mouth – he pressed Seth's right palm with smoldering hot coals.

"FUCK YOU, Castor! I will kill you!" Seth mooed in fright and felt arduous to move or rebel. Behind the flood of blood from the tearing of the head wound, Seth growls and curses Castor.

Diego, Caden, and Draco laughed maliciously. "What did he say? Kill us? What can you do? Kill us with what, huh?!!"

"Want to report to the police? They won't listen to a poor man like you. You loser idiot!!"

Draco kicked Seth in the head.

[ Duaaaaaaaakkk!!! ]

Seth drooped weakly, with eyes that swirled and began to darken.

Castor shook Seth's jaw. "Hey! Don't die yet! You are a brave loser. Before the time of death comes to get you. There's something I want to show you, Seth. Oh, this is my greatest special gift to you."

Diego, Caden, and Draco are now giggling disdainfully.

Castor takes the phone out of his pocket and plays a tape that hits Seth's common sense.

Seth recognized the voice, and his forehead frowned – the much admired and beloved Millie Graham. Millie's in the middle of fucking Castor. They moan in pleasure and make love in bed.

[ Millie? ]

Seth felt his body shake violently. Cover blood on the face as hard as iron. Seth's heart seemed to stop beating, and his soul shattered into pieces.

A woman always looks excellent in Seth's eyes.

Seth desperately loves Millie Graham. 

"Impossible. Millie?" Seth whispered in shock. It's hard to believe the contents of the tape.

Seth cried tears of blood.

Footage of Castor fucking his girlfriend. They clashed in a heated embrace, hot sweat, and pleasure.

Millie's passionate scream - breaks Seth's heart. 

[ In hell, Millie! How could you do this to me?!! Just die of you!! ] Seth screamed in his thought.

Castor chuckled sadistically and burst out laughing to the point of being unable to withstand the tingly turmoil in his stomach. "Look at this well. Millie's best in bed, Seth. Did you sleep with her? Oh, so great, and she enjoyed it so much. Take a good look at this."

Their evil laughter crackled in that narrow and lonely alley.

"I guess the loser is sobbing like a child now? Did you hear that? A broken heart? This MORON is crying, Castor!" Diego said maliciously. He hit Seth's back head again.

Castor was amused. A grimace as evil as the devil depicted on his face reddened like corned beef. "It's exciting, Seth. Do you see? No one wants to deal with poor people like you. You're rich. You have money and everything - you can buy anything. The law, the woman, and the throne, Seth. Millie turned away from you and chose to fucking with me. You know what? I always win at anything, Seth. Money talks. Who would help a helpless loser like you?!"

Seth growled furiously, but he could do nothing. Flooded blood covers his body. The smell sickened his stomach.

They leave Seth helpless and covered in blood. Their evil laughter echoed triumphantly.

Again, Castor always wins. 

Seth roared in anger. "I HATE MY LIFE!!!! WHAT'S MY FAULT FOR BEING TREATED LIKE THIS!!! I SWEAR I KILL YOU! I KILL YOU ALL!!"

Seth's chest heaved, and breathing was tight. The fire of anger burned his soul. It feels like the world falling apart under his feet.

A star-studded night sky.

All the memories of his life that always ended worst and like scum. Since both his parents disappeared mysteriously – Seth's life is excruciating. Five years ago, Reiner and Naomi were missing.

Five years of living like shit!

Law enforcement won't do anything if Seth can't pay them.

Seth misses Reiner and Naomi.

Drops of ice-cold rain fell on Seth's face, and the rain quickly poured down all over his face, and the wounds were sore.

A cold rainwater stream washed away the thick blood on Seth's face.

Seth growls, and his eyes closed.

[ Maybe death is easy. ]

***

[ Raaaaang! ]

[ Raaaaang! ]

[ Raaaaang! ]

"OUCH!" Seth roared in a quiver.

He gasped as the vibration of the cell phone shook his whole body. Seth rose from the padded bed slowly. It smelled like the rooms of his shabby and cramped apartment.

He held his head in throbbing sore, and the eyes blurred. Seth felt his body exhausted by a wave of dreadful shock hitting all over his bones.

"Wait, where am I?"

Seth regained consciousness and was jolted to see him lying on the apartment bed.

"Eh, this is my apartment? Am I not dead?"

A gauze bandage closed the entire wound. Seth palpated each of his injuries and the ribs that felt broken last night.

"UGH!" Seth growled in suffocation. "My ribs still hurt. How can I go back to my apartment? Last night, Castor attacked me, and I couldn't move. I thought – I was dead?"

[ Raaaaang! ]

[ Raaaaang! ]

The phone keeps vibrating. Seth is an arduous move and hard to find.

"Oh, crap! My phone is wet."

His furrowed deeply as an unknown number contacted him.

Seth massages his throbbing forehead.

"Who is this?" Seth muttered in confusion, but he pressed the green button. "Hello?"

[ Seth Vonstein listens to me carefully. There's little time. They're on their way to your apartment. You better get out of there now. They found you. You're in danger! ]

Seth's stunned in confusion, like struck by a thunderstorm in daylight.

From the other end of the phone line. The voice of a man who sounds wise, intellectual, and pleasant to hear. The man uses British accents.

Seth is still dizzy. "Wait a minute, who are you? What are you talking about? I don't get it! Who will come to my apartment? What does that mean?"

[ I know who you are, Seth. You're an information engineering employee at Covcaid. When you were a teenager, your parents mysteriously disappeared. You sell your parents' house so you can go to college. I know everything about you. There was no time to explain or chat. A dangerous secret organization called Codex is after you now, Seth! They're on their way to your apartment. They found you and know where you are. Your life is in danger. Get out of there! ]    

Seth could hardly believe the words of this strange man. He needed to understand what the context of this conversation was. Seth laughed a little. "I think you might be mistaken, man. Maybe it's not me?"

[ Look out your apartment window now! ]

"For what? I'm in injuries."

[ I know you got a brutal attack from Castor Black's team. You had a thorax trauma injury, and now you're sitting in your apartment bed, full of cuts and gauze. ]

Seth struggled to get out of bed and frowned. "How do you know? Maybe you're a stalker?! What do you want from me?! Do you want to rob me? You got the wrong guy, man!"

[ The poorest man in Oakenvale Metropolis State. You're wrong to doubt your abilities, Seth. You can create your watcher system without anyone knowing. I'm impressed. Don't expect anything from your treacherous lover, Millie Graham. ]

"Yeah, I hear that shit almost every day. Thanks for the sarcastic compliment, man." Seth retorted and sighed deeply. He opened the curtains of his apartment window. "Hey! How do you know all about me?! Who the hell are you? What do you want from me, anyway?!! What you're talkin' about, huh?!"

[ I said take a look down the street of your apartment, now. ]

It

stated absolutely.

Seth sounded furious, somewhat grumbling he did it. His eyes looked at the small street in the neighborhood of his cheap apartment.

Suddenly a swarm of large minibusses arrived and stalled in front of the neighborhood flat.

"What the?"

People in black suits and sunglasses with big bodies get off the doors of minibusses. They hugged a heavyweight military long-barreled weapon in the chest.

"Find Seth Vonstein now!! DEAD OR ALIVE!"

Seth jolted up from the window, his eyes bulging in shock, and both knees collapsed on the floor instantly.
