Hitman with a Badass System - Chapter 95

Inside the dark gloomy walls of the Abyssal, Michael leaned back on his throne after revealing his goal to Gaya. This was not the first time she heard him saying he wants to conquer this world and after seeing the miracles he performed, she really believed he could rule this world.

"Give me the book," She asked for the book after taking a look at the book-shaped hollow on the table. Micheal tossed the book and waited for something to happen as she placed the book on the hollow.

Tap tap!

Seeing nothing is happening, she lost her patience and dabbed the book a couple of times.

"Great, this thing is not working. It seems we have to rebuild this order from the ground up with no help " said Gaya.

"It's alright, we don't need any help from the people who were crushed by the guardians. Give me your hand" as he said, he stood up from his throne and came to her.

She obediently reached out her right arm. He then took his knife out and cut her palm as she slightly flinched.

"Why did you do that?" Instead of answering her, he kept a hand above the table and let her bleed on the table for a couple of seconds.

"From this day onwards, you're my second in command. I name you the Queen of the Abyssal" There was shock, delight, pride, and shyness hidden in her eyes when she heard his words.

"I accept your offer, human besides who else will put up with you except me?" She quickly regained her composure and said. With a pride grin on her face, she walked towards the throne to sit as a Queen of this place.

"Auch!" however when she was about to place her but on the throne, she was kicked away by a sudden force that emanated from the throne. The force was so great that she lost her balance and came flailing towards Michael.

"It seems you have bad luck with thrones" Her hands wrapped around his chest as she could feel his hot breath. For a few moments, she lost herself looking into his red eye and he lost himself looking into her radiant black eyes.

He had never been in love or shared his life with anyone else before but something about this girl attracted him towards her like a magnet. She was beautiful, brave, witty, moreover, she was loyal to him.

Both of them remained still very closer to each other letting their hearts rule their emotions rather than their brains.

"hhrrggr" Michael cleared his throat and stepped back as she quickly tried to hide the red blush on her.

"I'll... go and check the place out" This was the first time he had seen her blush and before he could fully digest this rare sight, she ran away from the hall.

Back inside the black skull, Michael also gently smiled and went back to his throne.

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

"Look what I found" After staying out of his sight for almost half an hour, she came back fiddling with two identical silver rings.

"Why are you still on that creepy chair? Never mind, see this'' Since she couldn't sit on the throne, it became just a creepy chair to her. She tossed one ring to him and kept the other.

"A space ring? Where did you find it?"

"Not a space ring human, an interlinked space ring. Anything you store in one ring can be accessed from the other. These space rings are extremely hard to forge and these are not even marked which means no one used them before" Considering she recovered her cultivation, it was time for him to give the resources she needs to cultivate as well as keep maintaining her lifestyle. Therefore he decided to put the gold coins in the space ring to share them with her. The interlinked space ring could only be accessed by no one except their owners, so he didn't need to worry about someone stealing it. Compared to gold coins, he valued badass points more and no one in this entire world could steal them from the system. Also, both of them were not someone who would let someone steal the ring.

"Gaya, what's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine" he claimed ownership of this ring by marking the ring with his Arch Energy, and then he transferred all the gold coins into the space ring.

"I like that," Gaya said and put the ring on her finger with a smile.

"So what did you find other than these rings?"

"Follow me" Michael followed her through the dark halls passing a couple of empty rooms and after a few minutes of walking, he came before a door that had the L mark etched on it.

"I couldn't open this door, I guess only you can" Michael wondered how Damien was able to design this place to recognize him three thousand years after.

For now, he was glad that they were able to do this because this place is way safer than the Sunrise sect. Moreover, he could plan his moves freely without worrying about someone spying on him. Simply, this was his Batcave.

Kachak!

The moment he touched the door, it shook violently and slowly opened. He could smell the ancient air coming through the cracks. The air had an extremely high concentration of fear toxin and if they didn't take the antidote before, they would have ended up dead in a matter of seconds. Damien obviously assumed that the fear toxin won't hurt Lucifer and technically, he was right as Michael was able to finish the antidote.

Thinking about the antidote, he couldn't help but feel thankful towards Gaya. If he hadn't saved her from the snakemen in the forest, he couldn't have finished the antidote. Although it was highly unlikely he would have ended up dead, he would have certainly lost a huge amount of badass points to the System buying the missing ingredients.

He stepped into the darkroom and when Gaya conjured the flame to brighten the room, he was disappointed as the room seemed nothing but empty. The room was not as large as the throne hall but it was not small either. While looking around the empty room, he frowned when he noticed another small door at the end of the room.

"What's up there?"

"Probably another empty room?" said Gaya and followed him behind to the door.

"Wow," his disappointment disappeared in a flash because he was startled by the sight after he opened the door.

The sight was so stunning as his eyes and mouth opened wide. In front of him were a waterfall and a small lake. He looked up to see how there could be light coming considering they were actually underground. Yet, he could see the sky and the clouds.

"This is a pocket dimension" Since she was a Core Formation level cultivator, she could sense the runes around the place and be able to recognize its true nature.

"Is it safe to be here?" What if the pocket dimension cut from the real world, this was the first question that appeared in his mind. He quickly stepped back.

"It's perfectly safe. Once a pocket dimension gets attached to a place, it stays there, not even an immortal could destroy it. This is definitely a work of a 5star Rune Master and a talented one at that" He sighed in relief. Looking at the beautiful waterfall as well as the blood stink coming from his body, he wanted to undress and take a long relaxing dip on the small lake before him.

In a flash, he entered the system's interface and unequipped all his armor except the black boxers he's wearing.

"Hey!" seeing him suddenly half-naked, she screeched and turned around.

"You're fucking naked"

"Not completely, hehehe" he laughed and dashed straight into the lake to relax. After all, he deserved a day off after all the killings and trouble he went through.

"How long are you gonna stand there and watch, you perverted snake" after a couple of minutes of swimming, he teased her to make her angry.

"I'm a pervert?! Says the guy who undressed in front of a girl" She wanted to kick his ass for speaking so shamelessly but she ultimately smiled and walked towards him.

"There you go, hop in, the water is at perfect temperature"

"Don't mind me if I do, CANNONBOLT!" Unlike he was expecting, she didn't change her dress as she jumped straight into the water cannon bolt style.

"Don't you have a bathrobe or something?" when she emerged from the water, he asked.

"I left all the clothes I picked at the Phoenix island, and now I need to go shopping again. I hate that Maria bitch"

Both of them soaked in the water and enjoyed the calmness of the place.

After a few minutes, she saw a smile on his face," what?"

"Do you know what we need to make this place even more awesome?"

"No, don't say it"

"A dragon"
