Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 386 - World Domination Begins I

"My Lord" After his meeting with Lord Information, Michael came back to his hideout in Dark Forest. The moment he appeared in the dark corridors, Azazel welcomed him with a bow.

"Where is Aria?" Michael asked,

"In her room with her brothers, my lord" Azazel answered as Michael began to walk towards Aria's room. It was time he healed her brothers and received her undying loyalty. Before he travels to the Akilan realm, he had to tie all the loose ends.

One of those loose ends was Aria's brothers. The system required 150,000 badass points to heal them completely. He could now afford the points. He already had a plan for the two brothers.

The closer he got to Aria's room, the more he heard a sobbing sound coming from inside the room. Obviously, Aria was as usual crying looking at her brothers. Azazel got used to her behavior. Usually, she would go outside to gather information on nobles, kings and place the Spycams in places such as Adventurer guild, noble houses, and army barracks to spread the eyes of Lucifer. When she returns to the hideout, she would go to her room, lock the doors and start crying, that was her schedule.

No matter how many times Azazel told her not to cry and trust Lord Lucifer, she didn't seem to stop sobbing.

"She always cries like this?" Standing in front of the dark door, Michael asked Azazel. Her sobbing sound vanished as she probably heard the footsteps of Lucifer.

"Yes my lord"

Michael nodded at Azazel while the demon butler just flicked his wrist as the door creaked open to reveal Aria standing beside her brothers. Blue tubes were running in and out of her brothers' bodies through mouth and chest. The scars had mostly disappeared from their bodies yet they were in no shape. It was a miracle they survived. According to the system's scan and his understanding, they inserted some kind of potion or substance into their bodies which kept them alive even after they lost organs such as the pancreas and livers.

"My Lord" when Michael entered the room, Aria quickly wiped the tears off her face and bowed. In her eyes, Michael could see a ray of hope glowing. The hope of saving her brothers.

With a nod, Michael moved towards the large bed where the limbless brothers were sleeping peacefully. He placed his hand on their foreheads.

"System, it's time for us to heal them"

[System scanning initiated…]

[Getting vital signs…]

[Initiating healing plans…]

The system's voice sounded in his head,

[150,000 badass points required]

[The system requires some other items to complete the healing process. The items would cost the host additional 5000 points]

[The healing process would last long for a week]

The system's voice continued to ring inside his head.

[Does the host wish to start the healing process now?] the system asked,

Instead of saying yes in his mind, he turned his gaze towards Aria. She was staring at him as her body shivered, expecting him to give her some good news about her brothers.

"Do you remember the price to heal your brothers?" Michael asked. She couldn't see his reaction through the skull mask on his face. Taking a long breath, she looked directly into his glowing red eyes,

"I do, Lord Lucifer. IF you can heal them and give me back my brothers to me, I will gladly give my life to you. I just want to see my brothers again"

"Your undying loyalty will ensure nothing happens to you or your brothers in the future. I'm giving them life…" Michael looked at the two brothers for a second before turning his gaze back at Aria,

"And I can also take their lives…if you betray me in any way" His cold voice sent a chill running through Aria's spine. Her heart skipped a beat as she nodded in fear,

"System, start the healing process" he waved his hand after ordering the system. Right at the corner of the room, two ten feet glass containers filled with sparkling blue water appeared.

With another wave, he sent the bodies of the two brothers floating towards the containers. Aria watched her brothers getting submerged into the blue liquid with her body shivering.

"In a week, they will be completely healed. Remember, their souls have been damaged. I can heal their bodies but only they can heal their souls. Unless they quench the thirst of revenge, their souls won't heal" Michael added the last part so they won't try any shit like forgive and forget.

The last thing he wanted was his subordinates to turn peace pigeons.

"What…what does…it mean…my lord?" Aria stuttered.

"It means they have to seek revenge on whoever was responsible for their state. Souls are magical complicated things. Make sure you kindle the flame of revenge in their hearts"

"I will…my lord…I am not planning to let go of those who did this to my brothers" Michael grinned inside to see the murderous look on Aria's face. He was glad to see the fire of revenge blazing hot in her heart.

"Put this on and meet me at the throne hall" Michael flicked his wrist as a neatly pressed black cloth appeared in his hand. He threw the clothes to Aria, gave her an order, and left the room. Although Aria had some questions regarding her brothers, she didn't get the chance to as he left the room before she could ask another question.

"My Lord, are you going to the Southern Continent?"? Azazel asked while following Michael back to the throne hall.

"Yes. I have to deal with the pirates and then," Michael took a deep breath. Azazel couldn't guess the meaning of his sigh. Perhaps he was tired or perhaps he was excited or both.

"I am going to Mazeroth, an academy in Akilan realm"

"My Lord, you are going alone?"

"They want me to bring a familiar. So I'm bringing Nightmare with me"

He couldn't help thinking about Hogwarts ever since he received the acceptance letter to Mazeroth. Only this time, they invited the Dark Lord instead of the boy who survived, Noah.

"What about…Lady Dark Queen, my lord?"

"Who knows where she is and what she's doing?" Michael sighed. Since she put the earpiece in her space ring, Michael or the system couldnt track her as the space ring prevented the system from tracking them. Of course, the system was one level higher, it could have tracked Gaya and told Michael that she is now at Ozer Continent.

"While I am away, keep spreading the Spycams all over the continent. I want you to monitor everything that happens in Elon. Stay away from Noah's home for now. I'm pretty sure that old smoke would have come up with a way to prevent me from spying on them by now"

"As you wish my lord"

"And give priority to the Spycam I placed on Peyton. If she gets anywhere near Noah or his family, destroy the Spycam" Michael ordered Azazel.

Paying 10,000 points to the system enabled Michael to give control over the Spycams to Azazel. He could now monitor, destroy and use the Spycam to its fullest potential alone without needing Michael.

Monitoring the hundreds of Spycam from the hideout was Azazel's main task. Information was wealth and power, Michael had begun to hoard information like crazy. If it wasn't for the bad vibe he got from Lord Information, Michael would have placed a Spycam in his office or on him when he came to Baron's manor. Michael had a feeling that the elf had some kind of countermeasure to prevent others from spying on him. After all, the elf was making millions by selling secret information. He wouldn't be careless or stay without a countermeasure against spies.

As they reached the throne hall, Michael saw several undeads cleaning up the hall as though they were professional maids. Michael even slightly chuckled behind his masks imagining the zombies in maid outfits.

He made his way towards the throne and then, leisurely sat on the throne. After a few minutes of waiting in silence, Aria finally appeared wearing the new clothes Michael gave him.

The cloth was specially tailored made for Aria by Michael with several assassin characters in games and movies in mind. The cloth was obviously black and had a cool hood to cover her head. He even gave her a nice cape to cover the throwing daggers, hidden blade on her wrists, and blades attached to her legs, waist, and hands.

The dress seemed to be the child of assassins creed and blade. He was planning to give all his subordinates cool outfits with benefits. Just he needed a runemaster and a blacksmith to forge armors that would give them an edge in battles.

"The blade work well?" Michael asked. With a nod, Aria flicked her wrist as the hidden blade came out of her wrist producing a sling sound.

Aria was at Body Refining stage level 2, she was vulnerable in Elon or any other cultivation continents. The hidden blades wouldn't do much damage to the cultivators but in the Southern continent, she would be a perfect assassin with the blades.

"Step closer to me. We are going to the Southern continent once again"

As Aria stepped close to him, Michael willed the system to activate the runic teleporter. A bright light flashed across the hall. In a blink of an eye, Azazel saw Michael and Aria disappear from the hall.

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

Maxine and Gibson were hanging out in the crypt. Currently, there were no rooms in the crypt but just a large spacious hall that could hold hundred people easily.

Currently, the hall was filled with snoring and weird sounds made by the drunk pirates.? Their snorting sounds even overcome the grumble noises made by hundreds of undeads outside the crypt.

Suddenly a white light flashed across the hall as Maxine and Gibson couldn't help but close their eyes with their hands. When they opened their eyes, they felt a chill. Lucifer was sitting on the throne with his glowing red eyes staring at them.

"My Lord!" Maxine shouted with excitement before immediately falling onto her knees.

"My Lord"

Gibson also bowed his head and went to his knees.

"My Lord"

Aria heard another meek voice. She turned her head in the direction of the voice to see Shorty running towards them. Michael was surprised to hear Shorty actually address him as 'My Lord' instead of Cap'n.? When he saw the skull mask on his face, Shorty was stunned as a sudden nervousness occupied his heart.

"Maxine, Gibson, let's go buy ourselves a new warship"
