Chapter 14: CHAPTER 14 – First kill in this World.

[Are you sure you want to buy this?] Sophia asked for confirmation.

'Yeah, this guy only ate fast food, but I want to eat homemade food, so what better than buying a unique cooking skill from the system?' Alex replied.

After resting for an hour or two Alex started to feel hungry and thought of making food, only to realize that the late Alex never learned cooking and only ate ready-made or fast food. Thus, he decided to buy a unique skill for cooking, and it came in pretty cheap only worth 20k points, he was now left with zero points, though.

Still, he didn't feel that it was a loss since almost every unique skill was a growth-type skill and grew as its users developed it and their prices were also high except for some like the cooking skill that he got.

[You have gained a new unique skill:

Cooking (Unique): You know every cooking ingredient, the best ways to cook them, their specialties, etc. The food you cook will taste very good and if mana is added to it, then it can give healing effects to the one that eats it. Even though the food you make right now would be very tasty, you can still increase the taste by continuous cooking. As your cooking abilities increase the effects it can provide might also increase.]

'Good. Now, let's make something to eat.' Alex got up from the bed, went to the kitchen, and took some vegetables and mushrooms that he bought while coming this evening out of the bag. He was cooking Mushroom Parmesan, which is a crunchy, flavourful recipe that pairs briny Castelvetrano olives and capers with tomato sauce and hen-of-the-woods mushrooms.

By the time he was done with the dinner it was already night, so he ate the food, surfed the internet for a while, and then went to sleep. However, just as he was about to doze off, his eyelids opened with a snap, and a glint passed through them as he commented while sitting up straight on his bed.

"I was thinking of letting you guys go even after you showed so much killing intent, but it seems like you don't want to live." As the words fell, two silver flashes shone from the drawn-out knives of the people Alex spoke to.

They were the guys that had been following Alex from the time he left the Crimson Lotus guild while releasing their killing intent. Still, the way they entered attack mode after being discovered without taking bullshit or anything showed that they were trained Assassins.

The two assassins were known as silver twins because of their silver knives, and they were pretty famous with the record of even killing S-ranked Raiders when both of them were just A-ranked Raiders. Both of them had entered the room from the front door after they felt that there was no movement from inside, which means the owner of the room was probably asleep.

When they entered the room and saw their target on the bed and thought of attacking him while he was asleep, they were surprised when they saw him sit up and talk to them. But as they were experienced assassins they knew how to act, so, they attacked directly thinking of catching him by surprise.

Alex caught the blade of both of the silver knives with his bare hands which were covered with mana, as he knew there was poison on the knives. This surprised both of the assassins and seeing their surprise attack fail, that too in such a terrible way made them realize that their enemy was much stronger than they had thought.

Seeing the situation both of them used their special move which is called poison mist only to fail as it was blown out by the wind that was used by Alex.

They knew that they might die, so, instead of dying by giving information to the enemy, they decided to die by suicide. But before their knives could touch each other they heard a voice from behind.

"Oh no, you don't." Alex, who was sitting on the bed decided to finally make a move so he moved behind the assassins at full speed and stopped their knives before they could kill each other.

He didn't stop them from killing each other because he wanted to extract information from them, he stopped them because if they killed themselves then neither could he get the SP (system points) for killing them nor would he be able to plunder them.

The assassins were surprised when their attacks were stopped again but just as they were thinking of how they were going to be tortured, they saw the target that was standing in front of them was now standing upside down.

Before the assassins could even register what had happened, they were dead, and their heads were now on the ground. Alex used an aura sword with his right hand and cut their heads clean, he had maximum mastery over every weapon, so, creating a weapon aura was no big deal for him.

[You gained 400 SP from killing two normal A-ranked Raiders.]

[You can plunder everything from the enemy you have killed. Would you like to take everything from the dead enemy?]

'I will only be taking their stats, abilities, and the memories about my assassination.' Alex said in reply to the system prompt.

Alex felt his stats increase to a maximum of S+ and with just a little push all of his S+ stats would go up to SS- and although it would take a little more time his SS rank stats might also be moved to SSS pretty soon.

Then he received an A-rank skill called Poison Mist, it created poison mist from my body that could cause the people weaker than A rank to die very quickly, A rankers would take some seconds and S and above might or might not be able to neutralize it, but they would still be a little affected.

These Assassins were pretty strong statistically and physically, that was also the reason they were able to kill some S-rank Raiders. Alex also got the name of the person who had hired the Assassins, but he went back to bed, throwing out any thoughts from his head. When he was lying on the bed, he used fire to burn the bodies and wind to blow away the smell.

He had already kept the Silver Knives in his inventory as they were B-ranked items.
