Hitman with a Badass System - Chapter 1394

Michael grinned, enjoying Agra's outburst. It gave him time to... think. To plan his next move. To figure out how to deal with that goddamn chimera and its... venom-spitting tail.

Sensing an opportunity, the cobra reared back, its fangs dripping with poison, preparing to unleash another volley. Michael waited, his gaze fixed on the creature, his body tense, ready to move.

And Michael acted as the venom bullets erupted from the cobra's mouth, a blur of green projectiles. He vanished, reappearing a heartbeat later... behind Agra.

He grabbed the Chaos God by the shoulders, yanking him forward, using him as a... shield. A divine shield.

The chimera's attack, meant for Michael, struck Agra instead.

"What the fuck, you asshole!" Agra shrieked, his laughter turning into a scream of pain as the venom bullets ripped through his robes, his flesh, his goddamn divine hide. Even a god wasn't immune to poison, especially not when that poison was... god-powered. His upper body, once covered by those swirling black robes, was now... exposed, the fabric vaporized by the venom, his skin riddled with small, smoking holes.

Michael, his grip tightening on Agra's neck, grinned.

"Oops," he chuckled, his voice a low, menacing growl. "Looks like... someone's having a bad day."

As the venom volley subsided, he released Agra's neck... only to grab him by the ankles. He lifted the Chaos God upside down, his body dangling like a... a goddamn piñata, and began to slam him against the ground, again and again.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"You think you can enslave innocent people and escape?" he growled, each word punctuated by a sickening thud as Agra's body collided with the earth.

Agra, his face contorted in a mask of pain and rage, alternated between screams and manic laughter. Michael could hear the sickening crunch of bones breaking, the squelch of... something... rupturing inside.

The chimera, sensing its... creator's... distress, charged towards Michael, its multiple heads roaring, its massive paws pounding the ground, each step sending tremors through the forest.

Waiting until the last possible moment, Michael grinned. Then, as the chimera was almost upon him, he grabbed Agra by the leg, his grip like iron, and swung the Chaos God, using him as a... makeshift club... against the charging beast.

Soon, Agra's body collided with the chimera's chest with a sickening crunch, the sound of bones breaking echoing through the forest. A scream, a mixture of pain and manic laughter, ripped from Agra's throat, followed by a spray of blood that splattered across Michael's armor.

"This is more like it," Michael chuckled, swinging Agra again, using the Chaos God like a goddamn baseball bat, connecting with the chimera's multiple heads, one after the other, each impact punctuated by a sickening thud and another of Agra's... unique... screams of pain and manic glee.

"Who wants a piece of the Chaos God?"

The chimera, disoriented by the... unconventional... weapon Michael was wielding, staggered back, its multiple heads roaring in confusion. It lashed out with a clawed paw, aiming for Michael's head, but he ducked under the blow, swinging Agra like a... pendulum... the Chaos God's body a blur of limbs and... screams.

"Take that, you overgrown gecko!" Gaya shouted from the trees, where she was watching the spectacle unfold with a mixture of amusement and... horror.

"Give him a taste of his own medicine!"

"I... I have... prisoners! In my temple! Beautiful women! Virgins! Elves! You can... have them all!" Agra babbled, his desperation growing with each passing moment. He had no idea that his offer, his attempt at... bribery, was only making things worse.

"I can even... give you... Qin Jiu!" he blurted out, his eyes wide with a manic desperation. "She's... she's... amazing. You'll... love her!"

"Shut the fuck up, Agra," Michael growled, his patience at an end. He vanished, reappearing a heartbeat later beside Agra, his hand shooting out to grab the Chaos God by the throat. He lifted him effortlessly, Agra's feet dangling inches above the ground, and began to drag him towards the pond.

"No! Wait!" Agra shrieked, his voice a mix of terror and desperation. "I... I can... I can give you more! Power! Influence! I can... I can make you the most powerful god in the realm! Just... let me go!"

He kicked and squirmed, his struggles pathetically weak against Michael's grip.

"You think you can just kill me and... and get away with it?!" Agra roared, his voice laced with a manic fury. "I'm the God of fucking Chaos, you little shit! I'll... I'll haunt your dreams! I'll turn your life into a living hell! I'll... I'll..."

He lunged, his teeth sinking into Michael's leg, but Michael didn't even flinch.

"You think biting my fucking leg is doing something?"

"You motherfucker! I'll rip your dick off and shove it up your ass! I'll..."

Michael ignored his pathetic attempts at... intimidation, his gaze fixed on the shimmering surface of the pond, now only a few yards away.

"What... what are you going to do?" Agra laughed, his voice a mix of defiance and... dawning fear. "Give me a... bath? Drown me in your little... pond? You can't kill me! I'm... eternal! And killing me... it'll only make things... worse! Just like... your brother! Just like... Rainar!"

Michael stopped at the pond's edge as his gaze met Agra's.

"And yet I sleep like a baby,"

Then, he shoved Agra's head into the pond.

The water, so clear, so tranquil only moments before, rippled, distorted, as Agra's face, contorted in a mask of terror and disbelief, broke the surface. His reflection, a grotesque parody of his already... unique... features, stared back at him, his eyes wide with a dawning horror. Michael's own reflection, a dark, armored figure, loomed over him, a grim reaper come to collect his due.

The koi fish, startled by the sudden commotion, by Agra's screams, darted away, seeking refuge in the shadows beneath the lily pads.

Agra thrashed, his body convulsing, his legs kicking wildly as he fought against Michael's grip. He wasn't going down without a fight. But Michael, his face impassive, his grip unyielding, held him down, forcing his head beneath the surface of the water.

"Let me go, you fucking bastard!" Agra gurgled, his voice muffled by the water, his struggles growing weaker with each passing moment. "I'll... I'll... I'll fucking kill you! I'll unleash... chaos... upon your... world!"

But Michael didn't relent. He held him there, his gaze fixed on Agra's face, watching as the light faded from his eyes, the manic laughter dying in his throat, the struggles ceasing as the God of Chaos... succumbed to the tranquility.
