THE ASSASSIN
"Do you think he will survive there?" a man covered with hood was asking his assistant who was also dressed as himI'm sure he will after all he was a trained assassin, he is also the replica of the devil himself.Let's wait and see how it goes. The hooded man answered his partner, let's also keep in mind been an assassin doesn't mean you could beat some gangs of ability users. Considering his power level, he is going to be bullied.I think you're also forgetting he left as one of the strongest QI users to ever exist in the dojo, and I'm sure he's going to grow much stronger. the hooded man's partner replied.It's time to go, the hooded man signals.Just then they both disappeared into thin air.In an empty white spaced void, Tahir could be seen looking at two people who looked purely alike with him, one was sitting on a swivel chair while the other was standing.Who the hell are you two? Tahir asked the two strangers who were intercepting in his void.We are your conscience, or should I say we are youI don't get what you mean Tahir replied.He was a little bit calmed now .What I'm trying to say is, we are everything about you, we went through everything together, we weren't just able to come out and be here, but somehow the system managed to push us out allowing us to appear here.I represent calmness and my friend here is anger. You kid is a combination of both of us.I can tell that you are the kind one, I mean your head is my fav color green, while the dumb one is red. Tahir replied while maintaining eye contact with him.We do have a name tho. I'm Bruce and his Shawn.And I'm sure your name is Tahir. Bruce replied.Yes I am.I hate to burst you guys lovey dovey reunion.But we are arriving at our destination, so kid get back in that chair and wake this body back up. Shawn told Tahir.Taking his place back on the chair, Tahir's eyes snapped back to life immediately.He could notice he was in a different environment.This is where you lads will spend the next two years of your life!!. Sergeant Bill's voice echoes through the hall they were all standing in.The walls of the halls were made of glass so they could all see outside, the outside plain looked like an airport as flying fighter jets were all landing, flying cars and cranes were powered.Mech were all moving around cleaning the jets, the amount of techs here wasn't realized to the masses yet.All the new recruits had their mouths wide open.Looking around Tahir noticed some sculptures of the Aliens and of some random people, the sculpture was telling a story, probably the first war story.After the first war with the Alien race, the humans had managed to make leaps in all sorts of technological fields. This was because they had almost died, so they had started pushing themselves harder to prepare the coming of another war, just Incase the needs arise again.Looking at other students Tahir noticed they were all in military uniforms.A camo green shirt and trousers with some strips of black and light green.Hearing some beeping sounds, Tahir checked his wrist and saw a wrist watch attached to his wrist.Placed on your wrists are some sort of identification, with this watch you would be identified as a student of this military academy. Transferring of funds to your Respective Money card can also be done using the watch, the watch also serves as a tracker to track you just in case anything happened. Remember your safety is also our priority. I almost forgot to mention it shows your power level. Sergeant Bulky said as the name on this tag states.Bulky was another officer who was sent to address them.It sounded to Tahir like he was speaking some sort of riddles , and from the confusion on the other students' faces, he was sure he was not the only one having difficulty understanding what the man was saying.""Sigh, here I thought I was going to stay away from the bullying, and now power level is showing, being a level one ability user was the main cause of the bullies from my previous school, I guess I just have to go with the flow. Tahir said to himself. Why don't you just snap the neck of those bullies? Shawn screamed into Tahir's head.Tahir almost screamed back when he heard the voice in his head."Stop scaring me bro, it is not an everyday thing to see people living in your head.Besides, we can't go around snapping people's neck" Tahir replied to Shawn."Weaklings" was all that Shawn mumbled."We will immediately begin testing your respective levels. Don't move until you are called forward, understand?!" Bulky shouted with a smile on his face and everyone just nodded. The sergeant looked frightening with his smile. It was completely contradicting his hard face. "Good luck!"When the ability first came to earth, it left a lot of people in confusion.Ability came in different types, ranging from the most popular ones, which is the elemental ability, not only was it the most popular, but also part of the strongest ones.Ability strengths depend on the MC cells in one's body. The MC cells in one's body also predict how many abilities a person could have.The double ability users were very popular, having double ability doesn't just mean you would be stronger than a single ability user.The strength of an ability not only depends on the MC cell but also by the human body, the MC cells grow wider and stronger by how you train, how far you are from your final limit.The military came up with a plan on how to differentiate between the strongest to the weakest and that is how power level came to be.They were differentiated from 1,2,3... All the way to 12. But it was rare to see a level 12 in the academy.There are actually two ways to get an ability. The first one is an original, an original ability is mostly stronger than the rest. The second way to get an ability is through an ability book. The book not only teaches you how to get an ability, but also how to grow stronger.When Tahir's parents died, he was left with no one. He was all by himself, and was unable to purchase an ability book. until the shadow fang took him in. The shadow fang are a set of Strong non ability users who came together to form a sect. They don't indulge in the world's problems, unless a strong ability user is going about distributing the world's peace.They are simply known as assassins. They have a secret power that could tank almost everything, the power is called qi . The strength of a qi user mostly depends on the amount and quantity of qi in one's body. qi is simply known and regarded as a life force.Tahir was the strongest assassin in the shadow fang. But as ordered by his master he went to the city to attend school. How he got enrolled into a military academy Is still a puzzle.Sergeant Bill was standing in front of all the students, calling out names in groups of five.Tahir thought finally he would be able to get strong, at least he could show them his ability, the only problem was how to activate the ability.He was still in deep thought when his system pop-up a prompt.Your body is being hit by direct sunlight][You are affected by the sunlight][Your vampire nature is kicking in][All stats will be halved while you are exposed to the sunlight]Just like the previous time, his entire body felt weak and heavy.Tahir discovered the glass wasn't blocking the UV rays from hitting him. The glass was too transparent to tank the sun's power, thus resulting in his vampire instincts kicking in." Shit how I'm going to take this test now, " Tahir asked himself.Calm down boy, who knows maybe where y'all are going to take the test would be somehow away from the sun, Shaw replied.That was another option Tahir hadn't considered though.Looking around Tahir made eye contact with a boy around this age with red hair waving at him. I don't remember having any friends, Tahir murmured to himself.Eventually the boy came to Tahir introducing himself as Kris.My name is Kris, I thought since I saw you all alone I could tag with you, that if you are alright with that. He asked while maintaining eye contact with Tahir.No problem, I'm fine with it. I'm Tahir by the Way. Tahir answered with his usual cold stare.Just when Kris was about to continue talking they heard names for the test being called out.Next group, Tahir, Kris Shane, Kelvin Port, Esha Vile, and Zahra Ice. Come forward to take your test!"THE TESTOnce the five students heard their names being called, each of them began to make their way towards the sergeant, who was waiting for them in front of the crowd.Aside from Tahir and Kris, there was another boy in their group. Kelvin looked to be the most nervous among anyone there. He was physically shaking and avoiding not yo be in the front nor the back,A small frame with scruffy Gray colored hair, he was not much for physical attraction, more like someone who had gone through alot of bullying because he was weak. walking up to him was Kris, putting his hands around Kelvin shoulders, he was assuring the guy not to be afraid of anything as here was safe.The other two members were both girls. Esha had long black hair and a short figure, she also had a small body frame, a true epitome of beauty, while Zahra, on the other hand, was the type of girl whose beauty turned necks. She had a tall statue and a body frame not too big and not too small, and she had long silky hair with
Pending QuestLeaving the test room, Tahir and his group used the teleporting machine and appeared in front of the admission office where they were handed some key passes. "Welcome to the academy lads, don't let your power level discourage you, you can only give up when you are already at your limit till then keep pushing. That was what the admission officer told them before dismissing them, Tahir and Kris where In the same room, upon opening the door they met Kelvin in the same room too. "Hey you in the same room as us?" Kris asked kelvin.Yes, they told me we would be staying together. Kelvin replied.That's cool, I wonder how the girls are doing, Kris asked.Tahir wasn't participating in their discussion, from his observation Kelvin was just too scared to Interact freely with people, might be as a result of bullying, while Kris is just some dude who loves girls, and jokes a lot.Hey kid, why are you making a mental note of your roommate? Shawn askedAnd why should I answer you?
PENDING QUEST 2"Quest Pending ?, So as far as the quest isn't completed there is no reward, I think I better get to finding them, before the system penalize me"Coming out of the rest room Tahir saw two people hurled him into the restroom back, right in Tahir face were the two bullies, suddenly a weird smile was starting to form across his face."You think you can just Interfere in our playtime and just walk away?" One of the bullies asked."Walkaway?, Who told you guys I was walking away? The teacher saved your guys lame butt, ohh wait, your two really thought you could beat me?"Tahir said before erupting into a laugh."What up with this level 2 creep, you think scaring us and acting all strong would save your life right now?There are people in this academy who you ain't supposed to mess with. One of the bullies was talking.Just when Tahir was about to talk back he saw one of the bullies running right towards him with an ice dagger, Tahir moved in very fast as he hold the guy and s
FIRST CLASSStepping outside, Tahir was hit by the fresh air, taking in everything that just happened today, it all sounds like a dream to him. The sound of the system notification reminded him it was a dream.[Daily quest completed][Quest reward:10 Exp][60/100 Exp]The notification alone was giving Tahir excitement chills."I think the system gave me one stat then"."Should I input the stats to stamina? Or strength. While lost in his thoughts, Shaw interrupted."I think you should allocate the point to stamina, the reason being that you are already a little bit strong now, plus enhancing your body with Qi would let you be faster than most humans and stronger, on the other hand, you will need stamina to use Qi a little bit longer".Thinking about the possibilities Shaw just mentioned, Tahir can't seem to agree less.I must admit You are very smart, unlike the other guy, but I think as time goes on we will keep the scale balanced. Tahir said.Sure I agree with you too, Shaw said.Pff
First class 2Tahir smiled at the girl as he waved to her.Sitting beside Kelvin, Tahir noticed Esha was acting strange or rather angry.Not understanding why or how, Tahir wanted to check his progress, to see how far he is leveling up, immediately he muttered the system, and the interface popped up.[User: Tahir][Race: Human][Level: 1][70/100 exp][HP: 10/10][Strength: 10][Agility: 10][Stamina: 11][+1 stats]This is progress, let see how today will end with the daily quest.Walking into the class, was a middle aged man, who introduced himself as John."My name is John and I'll be taking today's class about the Beast”.Our first topic is beast weapons. Before we start, how many of y'all have weapons here. The teachers asked.Only the new girl raised her hand, in hope Tahir will raise his hand too."Come forward please, tell the class your name and what beast weapon you possess".Currently all eyes were on her, when she pulled out her sword from her storage ring."Wow, she has a
Too StrongMan this system keeps getting better, Tahir mumbled to himself.Getting in a fighting position, Tahir attacked with his swords, using speed and strength Tahir moved at such speed that the whole class was surprised.I know something was off about this kid, the teacher cursed as he tightened his grip on his sword and slammed his feet on the ground to gather momentum to tank Tahir's attacked, as the swords clashed spark was been seen, Tahir not ready to give the teacher breathing space spun his body in a weird way as he went in for a kick to the teacher side, who in turn blocked the kick using his free hand, jumping back was TahirIt was clear the strength in power as Tahir was panting, while the teacher stood perfectly fine. moving again Tahir swung his sword but before it could reach the teacher, a surge of energy Burst out of John's sword which slammed Tahir to the wall.Shit he caused under his breath as he went again, this time with the help of qi Tahir saw the next attac
Level upStanding on a tree and watching all her activities was a mini drone, created by Tahir.“For some reason she has been tailing us, I need you all to be on alert at all times”. Tahir told his friends.“Here I was thinking you were flirting with her, " Esha said with her face flushed.“Flirting?, With her? Ewww. I can't possibly think of that, I know she was bad news from the start.”Sensing the discussion was swaying to an uncomfortable zone, Zahra decided to chirp in.“When are we starting our preparation for the forthcoming beast hunt.I'm sorry to say but we are one of the weakest groups on the ground, we got a level one earth user and a level two non ability user.Believe me your swordsmanship would be utterly useless against ability users.So you ain't gonna count, I'm sorry if I was too blunt Zahra said while maintaining eye contact with Tahir”.“It's nothing, I have heard worse, besides y'all shouldn't think I'm here to hold or slow you guys down.No matter what happens o
New SkillsThis time he headed to the library, he needed to know what vampire halflings are, but before that he needed to Check his stats.[User: Tahir][Race: Vampire Halfling][Level: 2][5/200 exp][HP: 15/15][Strength: 10][Agility: 10][Stamina: 11][+2 stats].[Skills: Blood hardening/God's Eye][Blood hardening: An ability in which the user can use his blood both internal and external way, the user is able to harden blood so much that it could cut through almost everything. Blood hardening grows stronger by leveling it upBlood hardening, uses user blood so -1 Hp Per use]Mode of blood hardening level up: Frequently using it.[God's Eye: An ability which allows the user to view vital information on everything, including humans.Ability evolves and spreads focus."Wow, this is awesome guys I mean, we could literally know our opponents power and weak points", Tahir said."You are starting to depend more on the system, than your own strength, training and powers". Shaw replied,
He still has that much power left; what the hell is this guy made of. Anyway I think this is where I show father I'm strong. arcane smirked with excitement.Immediately arcane was slammed into the wall, earth slabs could be seeing heading towards the devil, They are too plenty, I guess I'll just have to take them all in, considering I could heal. The attack was fast and Tahir tried his best to avoid them, some did crash into him.He was panting hard after the attack.Are you insane? You have been taking all those attack in, don't you feel pain. I also noticed your injury healing, I thought you had no abilities. Arcane asked a little bit annoyed.Insane? Yes, have abilities? no. I'm using beast weapons to heal myself.It doesn't matter if you heal, remember you brought this upon yourself. Arcane said.For the first time since the match a large lightening landed inside the rings blinding the viewers.There is no way he just defended that. Lucius said with his mouth opened wide.Tahir
"Jude from the second division has been disqualified. We would now move on to the quarter-finals." The announcer stated."Are you certain about this?" Cassy questioned Jude."Yes, I will just hold them down; after all, Tahir is the only one who will make it to the final"."You noticed, right? The main leader exudes an insane aura". Cassy commented.Kevin simply sat there, perplexed by the conversation."Now it is time for the big three from division II to face Arcane, a three-time champion.The first match is Kris vs Arcane.Please come forward".Kris knew his opponent was bad news from the moment he stepped on stage. The aura around him was strong and dense. He immediately went into offensive mode.Gathering the fireball in the sky, it crashed directly into the stage. He used every one of his MC cells to create that final attack.Kris was completely exhausted from his heavy breathing. When the dust settled, arcane could be seen standing tall and gallant.Swiping his hands, three invi
John was aware that they would not allow him to leave the restroom freely."So boys, this is how it is going to be; I will let you both walk out of this room unharmed." But if you insist on leaving here with me. I am afraid I will break a few of your bones.Remember, the decision is entirely up to you." John explained."Who does this old guy think he is? One of the military men expressed annoyance.Both military men attacked John, throwing earthen balls at him.John, not wanting to waste time, destroyed the balls with his bare hands while moving quickly, then grabbed one of the military men and slammed his face against the mirror.After slamming his face into the mirror, John grabbed and twisted his arm, causing a loud crack."He fucking broke my arm," the military man exclaimed before passing out.The other man began firing at John. John dodged the bullet quickly, landing a clean punch on his opponent's face that broke his nose. John grabbed his legs and twisted them, causing a crack
Not seeing Jude around was very alarming as his body was also not there. Just when Elvis thought it was over.Jude Burst from beneath the ground and gave Elvis a hard uppercut. Allowing Elvis to stagger backwards. Jude made a thick mask with his ability and covered Elvis face with it, Making it difficult for Elvis to breathe.Not having any choice left, Elvis tapped out and Jude turned off his power, as the earth mask started crumbling.Elvis was clearly pissed as his whole body was vibrating with anger.Unbelievable!!. Another win from the Second division. Next on the stage is. The devil Vs Walter.Please step forward.Stepping up, the whole stage was quiet as Walter unique ability were known to few. "Let the match begin". The announcer voice echoed through the Mic.The whole stage was starting to get covered by little frost. "I'm not like the rest. I'm able to break down my ice ability to frost. But here is the catch, anything this little Frost touches, becomes frozen". Walter ann
Tahir was unable to sleep the entire time. He was lost in thought, consumed by excitement. The sun seemed to be taking too long to rise. The sun finally rose. John gathered his team while briefing them on the rules. Tahir also informed his teammates about his decision and the mask. They all thought he was crazy at first, but eventually agreed. Looking at the other school. Tahir noticed about four students wearing hoods and not paying attention to what their guardian was saying. Tahir could feel it; he could sense strength emanating from one of the members. And a broad smile appeared beneath his mask."Announcement, Before the tournament began, I would like to say that seven world leaders are present today;" when the announcer mentioned the world leader, the entire stadium erupted in cheers.World leaders are those who believe in maintaining global peace. They were the ones identified after the war with the aliens.Tahir sensed they were on a completely different level."That being
Time was passing quickly as both academies prepared for the upcoming interschool sport. Even though no announcements had been made, most students were aware that it was that time of year.His watch was beeping, jolting him awake from his sleep. The others were already awake, waiting for him to get up. Tahir looked around and realized that his entire team was present."You do realize you are the one we are all waiting for, right?" Zahra questioned."Oh, sorry, I will be ready in a minute." Tahir said as he stretched.Because he was shirtless, the three girls all turned red as they looked at his ripped body.Zahra flung a pillow at him, saying, "Have some shame and put some clothes on."Laughing Tahir went to the bathroom to get ready. The entire team was on their way to the announcement hall when they noticed murmurs around them.When they arrived in the room, they saw their name listed as one of the top ten for the most crystals."Attention, everyone. It is with a heavy heart that I s
What plan do you have to stop the organization?."It's a temporary plan, I'll need you to tell them that you can only get close to me after the final exams. tell them the reason being I'm part of the contestants from this school going against our other school. It is usually a battle with a group of people from this school with another group of people from there. And I'll be getting in""Do you really think they will buy that?""Yes, they will. Not that they have a choice. They will either go with the flow or risk the military going after them"."Do you really trust me?" Cassy asked."Yes I do Cassy. Cause if I don't I would have killed you a long time ago". Tahir answered with red glowing eyes."Something about his eyes. The glow only pops up when he looks serious or angry. I know better than going against a beast of this level. At least I'll stay idle for now". Cassy thought to herself.Cassy called the organization with Kris and Jude watching her closely. The organization agreed to
Taking a big gulp of the liquor, Tahir began."I'm actually an orphan, never really got to meet my parents. They were sort of caught up in the war. I was thrown to the streets in my neighborhood, everyone called me the devil.At first it hurt, but then I adapted to love the name. I was bullied and hurt, the streets taught me to stand up for myself as no one would. I became a thief and a lot more. I adapted to the name the devil. Later on the shadow fang guild leader adopted me. I was trained to become an assassin. I was thought to kill evil. Unlike my teammates, I was considered the fang's son and was treated differently.I was weak, but someone taught me how to use the sword. Somehow she died in the mission I was supposed to take. Before she left I promised her, I'll take her legacy, I'll continue our unfinished dream. I'll become the strongest person in the world. That's how I became a three swordsman.Two belong to me and one belongs to her. Cassy was somehow sent to retrieve the g
Everyone was shocked to see Tahir lying flat on the ground.Moving from her current position, Cassy was heading towards Tahir."I just want the sword, if I don't take it they will kill me and everyone close to you. I'm sorry but I need it to save myself". Cassy kept seeing out loud while heading to Tahir.She was half way there when Jude created an earth wall blocking her. Immediately Zahra Freezes her legs. Kris hit her with a lightning bolt and stunned her.Right before Tahir passed out, he let out a surge of invisible Qi. The Qi was heading fast as he reached the end of the portal. John felt it, it was a call for help. Telling the junior officer to take the others to the school. He moved fast as he enhanced his legs with Qi making him almost invisible. Moving through the woods and dodging the beast. He arrived at a sealed out cave."I'm very sure this is where I felt the Qi wave from. Qi is still all over this place". John said to himself.Taking his sword, John let out his own Qi
