Hitman with a Badass System - Chapter 120

The very next day Gaya killed Jane, she acted as nothing had happened and resumed her normal schedule. Like first thing in the morning, she filled her stomach with all the delicacies that Raylene cooked for her. After Michael turned her into a 5-star chef, Gaya made Raylene cook everything she likes and devoured everything in a couple of minutes.

With her belly full, she would oversee the renovation of the sect. She ordered to tier down the entire quarters of the Elders and Claire and build it from the ground up. Previously the Elders stayed in a single big mansion but now, she ordered the workers to build each Elder a mansion in the country manor style.

At the moment, they had almost finished three houses and were putting a foundation for the rest of them including Claire's. She selected pure white paint for the walls and royal blue for the roofs. There were also flower beds and lush green lawns in front of these mansions in Gaya's mind but first, she wanted these mansions to be built. Also unlike before, she planned to build a separate building that would act as the main office.

Since the Sunrise sect didn't lack land, only the time and resources like the workforce slowed her vision from becoming reality. She sent Jack to hire more adventurers and people from River town to solve the workforce issue.

For the student quarters, she ordered to tier down most of the houses and build new ones. Previously, two disciples shared one house that had two rooms and a small hall but now, each student house would have two-story with two rooms on each floor. Her plan was to make four students share one house to save space because in the future when the Sunrise sect becomes the best, they would have thousands of students and at that time, they would run out of houses if they went with the old plan.

If an engineer from earth was here, he/she would recognize the architecture for the student quarters as the Colonial architecture style. Combined with Gaya's vision, each student house looked majestic, and when they were built, it would stun everyone with its beauty.

Other than Elder mansions and student quarters, she added new buildings to the plan such as Library, combat range, state of the art classrooms for practice alchemy, runes, and spells. Of course, it required not only millions of gold coins but also skilled workers to build many of the buildings in her mind. For now, she focused on building Elder mansions and Student quarters.

To decorate the sect and ornate the sect, she wanted to hire the elves from the elven nation rather than hiring humans because elves specialized in ornamenting a place. For the state-of-the-art buildings, she had dwarves in her mind because just like Elves specialized in ornamenting, dwarves were specialists in building and crafting.

However hiring these two was not a simple or cheap thing, it cost her almost 400,000 gold coins to hire a 3-Star dwarven builder to build their restaurant according to Michael's plan. She spent another 300,000 gold coins to buy the required materials and shipping costs. In simple words, she spent almost 1.2 million gold coins on renovating the sect and building the restaurant.

Fortunately, Majestic was doing extremely well as their customer base only grew bigger with each passing day. She was planning to hire more assistants to help the business but she had no time to conduct interviews.

"Good morning Sister Aelia"

"Good morning Sister Aelia!"

While she was taking a stroll around the student quarters, the disciples immediately bowed and greeted her. Some had pure fear in their eyes while others had a mix of fear and admiration. The disciples didn't just stand there but helped the workers in any way they could. Even the kids Michael rescued along with Cindy were helping the workers by supplying water and cool beverages to them.

After her morning stroll, she came to the makeshift stable where she kept her new pegasus. Since the previous pegasus died at the phoenix island, she had Daniel pay for the dead pegasus and hired another one.

Before they opened the Majestic for business, she decided to check the progress of the restaurant in River town. Plus, she wanted to see how the people are reacting to Jane's demise.

"Let's go to River town, Peggy" she patted the new pegasus on the head and mounted it to fly to River town leaving the overseeing the renovation to Jack.

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

"Miss Aelia" when she landed near the building site where a bunch of people was working tirelessly, Daniel and Ricky came running to greet Gaya.

"Where is that dwarf?" She saw no dwarf in the working site and asked both of them. The dwarf completely tore down the entire building unlike Michael and Gaya expected. Because of that, they were building the restaurant from the ground up which led to more working and resources.

"Where is Raylene?" before they could answer, Gaya asked them noticing no Raylene around.

"Lord Gatmil and Lady Raylene went to Bradford, Miss Aelia" Gaya noticed a glimmer of fear in Daniel's eyes while Ricky spoke.

"Bradford? Why?" 

"Miss Aelia, you knew Jane right?" Ricky asked curiously as Gaya nodded,

"The devil of Bredia killed her and all of her bodyguards" unlike Daniel, there was no fear in Ricky's eyes which surprised Gaya because weak people like him would be terrified in a situation like this.

"Jane is dead?! Are you serious?" She acted as she didn't know anything about Jane. Ricky and Daniel nodded, "yes, Miss Aelia, I just came from Bredia. The entire city is in panic and the Baron sigh" Ricky sighed and felt pity for the Baron.

"The man is broken into pieces, I had never seen a man cry like that" 

"Oh? Who is this devil of Bredia?" 

"Lucifer" the moment the name escaped Ricky's mouth, she noticed some people stop working and praying, looking at the sky.

"Many people call him the devil of Bredia since he first appeared in Bredia"

"Him?" she growled inside because it was her who pretended to be the hostage, punching bag of Jane and finally killed them. Yet, she was unable to take the credit, so she hid her emotions from showing on the face.

"Why do you say it was Lucifer who killed them? The Baron has many enemies"

"Sister Aelia, I saw the bodies, they were laid in a shape of L and Jane" there was a small pause in Ricky's voice for a few seconds before he continued, "she was hanged from the top of the manor, Lucifer broke her two arms sigh...she suffered before dying"

Ricky obviously sympathized with Jane but Gaya who actually killed her didn't feel a thing for Jane. Michael would have left her alive if she hadn't held off a grudge against him. Before dying, she sought revenge against him by messing with his business as well as trying to kidnap Gaya.

Many including the old man and Celina advised her not to cross paths with Ghost yet she did exactly the opposite and ended up losing her life. Unfortunately, the old man and his team became collateral damage.

"Miss Aelia, if you want anything from Bradford, you should get it soon. The soldiers were talking about a lockdown" 

"Entire garrison of Bradford is searching for Lucifer and I heard the Church is also coming in case he really is the devil " Daniel added. It was no surprise to Gaya that the Church is coming to Bradford because when something evil appears, they would come to cleanse the city with their holy guards.

Aside from the garrison and the Church, she also expected the guardians to act as they would now suspect Lucifer to be the Dark Lord. With their current power, she knew they can't face either of those three. Fortunately for her, Michael could cultivate by killing Netherels and the Orc was waiting in the Abyssal to summon Netherels for Ghost to kill.

Michael and she were planning to stop terrorizing the kingdom for a couple of weeks till the heat goes down. Besides, after Ghost came out of Nether Realm, they would be busy managing their businesses as well as getting rich.

Of course, they knew Celina would suspect him and come looking for trouble but they had already devised a plan to deal with her. However, the spell Gaya was using to mask her cultivation was a Legendary spell that could only be dispelled by a half immortal. Considering Ghost was in the Nether realm while Gaya killed Jane, the garrison or the guardians wouldn't allocate too many resources to investigate him.

"What do you think Daniel? Don't you believe in the devil?" asked Gaya.

"Of course I do Miss Aelia but I just think this is a work of a human "

"Don't be too sure old man, that was not a work of a human"

"Yeah no shit," Gaya thought inside as Ricky went on, "I saw those eyes, it wouldn't be surprised if they were scared to death" 

"If you don't finish your work here, I will gouge out your eyes" Gaya kicked Ricky on the bottom and chased him away. 

"I want this built before Ghost returns," Gaya ordered Daniel. There were still three days until he returns and she wanted to surprise him by giving him the new restaurant.
