Hitman With A Badass System

Chapter 469 Vampires

Chapter 469 Vampires

Michael was flabbergasted to see Sabrina on the missing person list.

Several questions such as 'what was she doing with guardians?', 'what was their mission?' 'Where is Noah?' 'Where did they go?' appeared in his mind,

Looking at the change in his face, Elidyr asked,

"You know her?"

Michael nodded, "That my friend is, the future Supreme Guardian's little sister"

Elidyr was visibly surprised. He didn't think Lucifer would know who the next Supreme Guardian is,

As though Michael guessed his next question, he smiled at Elidyr,

"Killing Noah is out of the question, Elidyr. That old smoke made sure that never happens. At least it will not happen until I get stronger"

By stronger, he meant upgrading the system. To upgrade the system to version 5.0, he needed a whopping amount of 600,000 badass points. The system required him not to act against Noah at least until he upgraded the system to version 8.0.

He really wondered what the hell Andreas did for the system to be so careful and cautious.

"Which one? Andreas Mcleod?" Elidyr asked as Michael nodded,

"Do you know him?"

Michael turned his gaze away from Sabrina's face to Elidyr. He felt curious and wanted to know about the famous Supreme Guardian Andreas McLeod.

" Never met him. But I heard he was a real hard ass and a prodigy. So this Noah person, how much does he know about you?" Elidyr rubbed his chin,

"Not much, I saved his family once or twice. He definitely has no idea about my identity. If he does, the entire guild would be at my doorstep the next moment" Michael chuckled,

They saw Tiriana scroll through every single parchment on the table. Michael counted eleven missing people including Sabrina and Peyton.

Several minutes later, Tiriana waved her hand as another holographic image containing a man's face and details such as name, cultivation level and threat level appeared above the table,

"Victor" Micheal saw the face of a short brown-haired man with a muscular build. He had a great memory. Hence, he recognized the man. Almost sixteen months ago, he met the man when he visited Phoenix island for the auction. He was one of the Core Strengthening stage warriors who received special treatment from Lord Julius.

After offending Julius by killing Maria, Michael used teleportation to escape with Gaya. Before activating the scroll, he left a note in Victor's pocket with the help of the system. Michael asked Victor to meet him on the note, except, to this date, Michael never saw Victor again until now.

Under Victor's image, he saw the word 'High Threat Level' and became surprised. Victor seemed to have managed to reach Core Strengthening stage level 6 from level 4. His threat level was higher than Michael imagined.

As he was staring at the images, another row of information appeared beside Victor; Last seen. Michael received another surprise. According to the holographic image, Victor was last seen traveling to the Southern continent.

"The plot thickens" Michael frowned,

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

Tiriana was collecting every bit of information she could about Operation Desert Eagle. Everyone including the leader of the operation and the help brought from the outside had gone missing.

While rummaging through the parchment, Tiriana heard the door suddenly open. She almost jumped back in sudden shock. Her heart calmed down when she saw her best friend and the Alpha Guardian, Tanulia Valren enter the war room.

"Tiri"

"Tanulia" instead of addressing her as Alpha Guardian like the rest of the guardians, Tiriana called her by the name, stood up, and hugged her tight.

"I heard about what happened. It's not your fault, let's find them" Tanulia patten Tiriana on the back. Everything said and done, the motherly expression on Tanulia's face disappeared. Instead, a stern, dominant, pissed-off look replaced the previous expression.

"What do we know about the target?" Tanulia used her dominant alpha guardian voice,

"Victor Hagen, last known cultivation stage Core Strengthening level 6, last seen traveling to the Southern continent in a merchant ship" Tanulia listed the basic information about Victor,

"Fifteen months ago, several young men had started to disappear in the outskirt villages of Dradel and Kethen. A few weeks after the disappearance, their bodies were found, mutilated, and…" Tiriana paused for a moment,

"And completely drained of blood in the forest surrounding the villages. The number of disappearances increased and every time, a week after, the bodies turned out to be as same as before, mutilated and drained of blood"

"Any similarities among the victims?" asked Tanulia,

"There is only one, the bite mark. Every single victim had a bite mark on their lower neck"

"Vampires?" Michael was taken aback by surprise. What she said matched the description of vampire killings. However, he didn't know this world had vampires.

"This matter was brought to the guild's attention by Kethen's King, Porter Forbes. Through a thorough investigation conducted by Guardian Captain Gerard Atkins and his team, they found clues connecting Victor to the victims. They sent a team of guardians but they were all killed" Tiriana paused for a moment and continued,

"They were all killed in the same manner, mutilated, completely drained of blood and all of them had bite marks" Tanulia listened to Tiriana showing no visible expression on her face. However, she was raging inside after hearing that Victor killed the guardians. Regardless of their race, they were guardians. Killing a guardian was a crime punishable by death and if one was to commit this crime, the Hunter Guardians would hunt him or her to the end of the world.

"Because of the threat level, Guardian Captain Gerard initiated Operation Desert Eagle and assigned Peyton as the leader of this operation"

Michael curiously waited for the part where Sabrina got involved in this. She was supposed to be studying at Holy Trident Academy. There was no reason for Sabrina to mingle with the Guardians except for her brother. However, something told Michael that Noah wasn't involved in this. If he did, Sabrina would have gone missing.

"Peyton recruited these guardians and…" With a flick of her wrist, Tiriana brought the images of ten guardians before Tanulia. She then hesitated for a second. Noticing the reluctance shown by Tiriana, Tanulia creased her brows,

"What is it Tiri?"

"The last member she recruited…is Sabrina" Tiriana waved her hand as Sabrina's image appeared directly in front of Tanulia.

"Sabrina Winston, Noah's little sister"

As soon as Tiriana spoke these words, Tanulia's composure completely changed. She slammed the stone table as the images started to flicker,

"What?!"

Tanulia's roar echoed through the war room,

"What the fuck was she thinking?!"

Tanulia's creamy white skin turned red along with her eyes which now looked as red as fire.

"She recruited someone who's not even a guardian?!" she slammed the stone table once again. Seeing Tanulia's outburst, Tiriana took a step back. Her legs were uncontrollably shaking because she had never seen Tanulia this furious before.

"That bitch is expendable. But not her" Tanulia pointed at Sabrina,

"If we are to lose Sabrina and Noah found out that his little sister died because of us, everything will be ruined"

Michael confirmed his suspicion, Noah indeed had no idea about his sister's disappearance.

"What's up with that girl and trouble?" Michael shook his head disappointedly. Despite his feud with Noah and the Supreme Guardian, Michael had a good impression on everyone in his family. Diana and Ethan always treated him like another son, Emelda, and Natalia was cool too but now after the tournament, Michael had a feeling that they might not treat him as they used to. Despite Michael nearly beating Andrews to death, Sabrina acted as though she was his little sister in front of him. Michael too liked Sabrina.

Regardless, now it seemed as Sabrina Winston got herself into trouble yet again. This time Michael would not be there to save her butt. If only Michael knew she was his little sister.

"We have to find her no matter what. Immediately contact every single guardian in the Southern Continent. I'm authorizing Code Red. Use all and any resources, I need Sabrina found asap. I will contact the other Alphas"

Unfortunately, Tanulia took out some kind of orb and the next moment, she was beamed out from the warship to somewhere else. So Michael was unable to follow Tanulia.

After Tanulia left the war room, Tiriana contacted the guardians on the Southern continent using several orbs. Her meeting with the guardians took almost an hour. Only then, Tanulia appeared in the room once again with a golden parchment in her hand,

"Here" Tanulia threw the parchment to Tiriana as she cast the spell to enhance the continents,

"Magnior"

Just like before, the spell formed a light layer around the parchment before forming a holographic image of the contents above the table.

The holographic image contained a black panther standing on its two legs like a human. The Black Panther had shiny fur, arms like humans,s and wore a golden chain around its neck.

"Send men to bring him to me" Tanulia ordered Tiriana. Although Tiriana had no idea who this beastman was, she had a feeling that this beast-man might be the only one who could find Sabrina.

On the other hand, Michael had a vague feeling that he met this black panther somewhere else before,

"Alpha Guardian, who is this beastman?" Tiriana noticed the change in Tanulia's voice and deemed she was less furious than before, so she asked the question that nagging her brain,

"I had to call in a favor from Alpha Guardian Kasim to get his help. This beastman is the best hunter in this world"

Hearing Tanulia, Michael began to connect the dots. He almost made the connection and if he was right, he didn't meet the Black Panther but he may have met someone related to the Black Panther,

"How much are we paying him? Hunters don't come cheap" Tiriana asked only to see Tanulia shake her head,

"Not a single coin. He doesn't want any coins, he wants a favor from me. When the time comes, I have to help him kill someone"

Tirian was stunned, she tried to change Tanulia's mind about helping the panther in killing someone,

"I gave my word. When the time comes, I will help him take a life"
