章節 11: 11.
A few hours later…..
William with a gloating smile walked into his apartment holding a black box.
"I can't believe this. I was just an ordinary man a few days ago but with the treasure hunting system, I have not only earned a fortune but now I also have a medicine that is gonna make me a Martial Master soon."
"Hahaha! I would soon dominate the world with my might."
He gave an arrogant laugh with a chilling smile.
"Obey me you shall prosper. Defy me, you shall wither."
"I wish that man at the shop would have troubled me more so that I would have gotten a chance to act cool and show him, Mount Tai. Alas, it seems not everyone is as brain-dead as the people I have encountered recently."William with a chuckle, placed his hands on the doorknob.
"Once I became a true cultivator, I would leave this shabby house and fill my mansion with beauties and make that bitch repent for abandoning me."
"Haha!"
The door creaked open, and just as William stepped into the dimly lit room after closing the door, he found a blade lurking in the shadows, darting at him.
Reacting swiftly, he dodged the deadly blade's trajectory, narrowly avoiding its lethal edge while dropping the black box.
But the blade managed to scratch through the neck leaving a small gash.
His instincts kicked in and he immediately threw a punch. The assailant tried to trade blows but as the punch struck the dark-robed man, he was pushed back.
The man who looked like an assassin raised his head and threw the dagger at William, which he evaded swiftly by tilting aside and the dagger struck the wall behind him.
William noticed the man barehanded and used his body to attack so as William tried to create some distance, the man dashed towards him by sliding on the ground.
William kicked the ground and jumped up to avoid the low kick. The man went down and immediately getting back on his feet, threw a fist towards William.
After having a rough guess of an opponent's strengths, William raised his palm to clutch the first, however...
Blood spurted out following a curdling scream.
"Arghhhhh!"William screamed in pain, clearly astonished as he saw a tiny pointed end from a fist digging into his flesh.
"How?"
William stood startled, finding his worldview shattering at the moment as the empty-handed man suddenly pulled a weapon out of thin air.
If William had been a little bit experienced, he wouldn't have taken things lightly.
Even though he hadn't any experience in fighting, with the system strengthening his physique he believed that no man could harm him.
However, there was no medicine for regret.
Not giving him any time to react, the assassin gripped William's collar, and pulling out the karambit from William's palms, he lodged it towards William's neck who raised his other arm to hold it.
CRACKLE!
A crackling sound echoed as William's grip almost crushed the assassin's wrist but the assassin's eyes remained unyielding and steady despite the pain.
"What the heck?''
William raised his injured bloody hands, held the man's arms despite the pain, and tried to stop the man from pushing the karambit.
With adrenaline coursing through his veins, William grappled with the assailant. A desperate struggle ensued with a fight for survival against the skilled assassin.
The two figures crashed on the ground and started rolling on the floor.
Though a novice, William fought back with all his instinct trying to gain some distance and run if possible but the man grappling his collar tried to stay close resulting in a fight of rug and tear.
William used his legs to break free but the assassin dodged it and slammed his knee at a man's most vulnerable and forbidden place.
CRACK!
Something cracked and it wasn't eggs.
"NOOOOO!"William's face turned red-green due to sharp throbbing pain and his legs spread wide. His lips opened in 'O' shape to scream but the dark-robbed man closed his mouth.
At that time, the mask worn by the assassin fell a bit and William's heart almost jumped out of his mouth seeing the familiar face.
"H....Jow Caan iiit bit uuuu?"William's ruffled cry erupted from closed hand.
Never ever in his wildest dream had he ever imagined that the nilly willy guy he had met in the shop would appear in his home as harbringer of death.
The shock was so great that his hands loosened and using this opportunity, with a sharp glint the assassin struck.
Despite William's valiant efforts, the assassin lodged the karambit into Williams's neck and ruptured his neck by tearing it into pieces.
However, even after sensing William's life, he stabbed William's face again and again, digging numerous holes until he finally heard a notification confirming his death.
Then, he left the man incapacitated and breathless on the floor, with eyes wide open as the weight of the grim reality finally hit his deceased soul.
The assassin fell on his butt breathing heavily and pulled out the black mask covering his face.
And it was none other than Leon.
"Fucking hell. Wasn't this guy at the normal level? How the hell is he strong enough to punch my health bar to nothingness?"Leon muttered in disbelief staring at his broken wrist which he managed to move with sheer will and then towards the health bar which had fallen to 0.4
And to add more salt, he was feeling tired with a little bit of movement and his body was quite clumsy as previously he wanted to take a blow to deliver a strike but the hits almost threw him into disarray.
Then he stared at William with a smile.
"Believe me pal, I have no intention to kill you but the moment you threw that fucking money onto my face."
"It became something personal."
Following Leon's voice, system notifications started pouring in.
[DING]
[Congratulations for taking the first step towards greatness. You successfully killed the first Protagonist.]
[DING! The host killed William Smith. Gained 50 KP.]
[DING! The host had changed the flow of the world thereby changing the future. Gained 15 counterattack points.]
[Going over protagonist William Smith.]
[A random reward from the Protagonist is being generated.]
...….
Some of you might find the value quite low but I plan on keeping them low unless they are big cultivators. I was preparing to release a book with businessman MC prior but due to the competition, I have to come up with this so I don't have a solid idea for the system and other parts so I may make some necessary changes if required.
