Chapter 71 - 71: First Bloodshed
Chapter 71 - 71: First Bloodshed
As soon as they saw someone enter inside the door, and walk towards their desk, the two people enjoying their conversation and the ladies on their laps were startled.
They jumped from their places while trying to look and shout to the 5 men that were supposed to be guarding this place outside the office, ??
Vice-president:" Ken, Blade, Zuko, where the fook are you guys?"
But no response came back, and there was no sign of any one of them. It seemed like they had disappeared into the darkness of the night.
When suddenly the vice-president's secretary finally saw something slowly flow on the ground, and when it finally it entered the light area she screamed at the top of her lungs,
Secretary: Aaghh~!"
Her scream caught the attention of the other three people inside the room, and they immediately turned their eyes, to where her finger was pointing.
They focused on the ground outside only to see the red blood flowing on the floor, and it didn't take a wild imagination to understand what had happened there.
The people who they were calling were most probably dead, only they were left. With that terrifying realization dawning upon them, they finally turned their attention towards Eric.
Eric was looking from the window glass at the crowd of people passing by the building, while the gun was still in his hand, like a useless piece of equipment.
Actually, he didn't have much of a thought about the current situation, he was just trying to see if the guards had already alarmed the police.
There was no sign of them at the moment, so he thought it was a good thing, he had to close this situation as soon as possible.
On the other hand, the two bosses inside the office were evaluating the situation and thinking of a way to deal with this.
Just as the local boss was about to say something though, Eric raised the gun without even looking at him and shot a bullet through his head.
He died just like that, without understanding what happened. The secretaries were completely terrified and stunned by this situation, especially seeing someone get killed in front of them.
But they didn't dare to release even the tiniest sound in fear that they would be next. While they were in that terrified state, the vice-president started rambling,
Vice-president:" Who are you? Who sent you to kills us? I will give you three…"
He wasn't able to go longer though because Eric turned around and without warning grabbed a pen from the desk and stabbed him in the throat.
It was such a gore situation that the secretaries couldn't stand it anymore and both of them fell down on the floor terrified, not daring to make a noise.
But when they finally recollected their selves a bit and wanted to know ask what that mysterious killer had in plan for them, they saw no one standing there.
He had disappeared from that place, just like a shadow. All this time he had said nothing and killed all the men in there.
Raising their heads over the table they were able to see that the cocaine was still there, but the money had disappeared together with him.
They didn't dare to move from their spot though, they had just experienced a trauma they would probably never forget.
Pretty soon the police came, sealing the area, and taking their testimonies, but all the people left alive said the same thing.
'That guy is really fast and strong, he was like a demon of the night, killing in total silence without leaving any print behind."
While the police and the media went to report the situation, Eric was walking with a grin on his face towards Akira's apartment, with a suitcase holding around 300k$ in his hand.
But right now the most important thing wasn't that suitcase with the money, but something even more amazing, tonight he found out that if he killed his opponents the system gave him a lot of benefits.
First and foremost he was able to absorb a bit of the spirit, energy, and vitality left behind by their bodies when they died, which clearly increased his stats.
At the same time, differently from when he just knocked them out, he was able to x100 Exp, and SP points with each kill.
There was no change if he killed them with a gun or a pen, their worth was the same. So how could he be not happy with that?
As for the killing, it had a lot less effect on him than he thought. Initially, he thought that since his young self spirit hadn't been fused totally he would feel bad, and regret it.
But after it happened he found out that he was weirdly calm and used to this, so he thought that slowly his spirit was close to perfect fusion.
Even though he didn't know what the completed product would be, he wasn't really worried about that. At the end of the day, he was the same person and the same body.
Not to mention that when he made his first kill he got a bonus, of 500 Exp points, and 500 SP points. The reason was simple, the path towards the peak was a battlefield.
There was no one who had reached the peak with unsullied hands, so that was the first thing everyone should come to terms with.
After what happened tonight he could finally get his hands on that level 1 Alchemy book knowledge and skills.
He was really happy, and couldn't wait for the next night to come, so he could kill some more scum that would help him with the Exp points, and SP points he needed.
Not to mention that this way he could increase even his money reserves to invest more. But he didn't care much about it, he would give this money to Daisuke to clean it up for him.
At the same time, he was thinking of consolidating Daisuke's and Shiro's power in the Yakuza with this money. It was a clearly wise investment at the moment.
At the same time, he had told them to keep their eyes open for any good kid that could be trained into a fully-fledged loyal soldier.
His best options were the street kids and orphans since they were easier to brainwash and control. But he first needed to find a place where he could build his camp, and train them without being noticed.
While he didn't know much about the Immortal World he could imagine that it was a vast place full of powerful cultivators.
So if he wanted to have a chance at surviving and reaching the peak he would need a huge army behind him, a bloodthirsty army that would never betray him.
Thinking like this he soon arrived at Akira's apartment and wasn't surprised to see that Mina was there as well.
He didn't have much time though, he needed to take a shower, change his clothes, and get out because he had a scheduled plan with his ex-brother in arms.
So he got to enjoy only Akira's and Mina's soft bodies as they washed him, and nothing more. Before he left though, Mina accepted to be his subordinate, and have the sub-system installed.
With her, he now had 3 subordinates with sub-systems that he would develop into becoming his generals in battle.
Things were a bit busy and cramped at the moment, but everything was going great. With the exception of knowing that there were a lot of dangerous people with a system out there.
But there was nothing he could do about it, right now he had to increase his strength and his power at the same time, and it would surely be a really busy time.
He had to work hard not only to train, but at the same time he had to be vigilant of everything around him, and never lose sight of the game.
He had to place his pieces in their place and in the correct order, and slowly start turning from a piece into the game to a player outside the game.
His best help at the moment was that nobody knew he was a piece inside this huge game. He had to take advantage of that, so when he was finally discovered, he would be one of the players.
His revenge on the people who betrayed him could wait, he couldn't be too hasty with that and destroy everything even before it got built.
Thinking like this, he soon arrived at a night club where he had decided to meet up with Suzuki Kaito. He was a frequent client in these clubs hunting for new prey.
Suzuki Kaito was waiting for him at the door, he was dressed well, he looked like a handsome playboy, but still, Eric grabbed more attention due to the fact that he was a foreigner.
Kaito didn't seem to bother much about this, as he thought that Eric was a great wingman for him, and they just entered inside the club.
Normally it was an only couples club, but 50$ can do wonders everywhere, so they could enter inside really easily.
As soon as they entered the loud music, and the merry made one startled since there was no noise coming outside, but Eric adapted quickly.
He just followed behind Suzuki Kaito, as he went close to a table where two ladies were dancing while drinking a glass of wine.
Without any notice, Kaito hugged one of them from behind, and pulled her towards his body, while his hands moved through her curves.
The girl was startled at first but then recognizing the guy behind her, she just let him do whatever he wished and enjoyed whatever that was.
Only after a few moments, and a detailed exploration was Kaito finally remembered of Eric and introduced him to the girl and her friend…
