G. Chapter 47
Morning, 7:37
On the train.
Destination Zama, capital city of Vayi.
Inside the private compartment in a coach..
" Brother can you do it or not?" a man in his mid twenties with tanned and rough skin asked in pain.
" Shut up, let me concentrate!" said the person trying to remove the bullet from the previous person's shoulder. He resembled the previous person in his facial features. He had bandages and bruises on several places on his face and body.
After a good mental struggle, Josh removed all the bullets from inside John's body. He then started treating his brother.
"Damn brother you are too careless this time. Can't you control yourself for once?" Josh glared at his brother.
" How do I expect that bitch to have a backup in that place?" John said with a gloomy expression.
" You gave her the chance!" Josh said in a deep voice as he put pressure on John's injuries.
" Stop, stop.. I just wanted to enjoy her. I wasn't expecting things to turn out like this" John winced in pain as he replied to his brother.
" We had everything under control. The plan was perfect. Even with her backup, we had the chance to kill her. You messed up everything just to fuck her." Josh said with a frustrated tone.
" Didn't you agree with me. Why are you blaming me for everything" John said.
" Now you're rebutting me. Then go and explain to Simmons about how that bitch escaped! Our job was easy. Killing that bitch. Next time do you think it will be easy? Do you think Simmons will give us a second chance?" Josh shouted angrily at his brother.
" Calm down. We will think of something." John tried to calm his brother.

It's boring.
The train is moving too fast, I can't see the outside scenery.
And their quarrel isn't interesting to listen to...
I skipped my practice today. My puppet is practicing in my place. I don't think I will need to worry about the puppet.
*Uff* Actually, I am pretty nervous now. Listening to the quarrel of the two people I am going to kill, I don't know how to explain my thoughts and mood.
Even with all those memories of my previous life I experienced, I can't stop getting nervous when I am about to kill someone.
It's great that I chose these two brothers as my targets. Two Stage five Mortal Realm Mages. Injured.
I was looking for suitable targets, then I came across these two who are escaping from a pursuit.
I have been paying attention to every information from the country of Vayi. It's a young nation. Recently earned its freedom with an Emperor Realm Mage leading the struggle for its independence.
It's been a few years since the country gained its freedom. It's developing at a steady pace, the economy is stable and the government is well formed.
But there are still many problems in the country with all the crimes and criminal gangs. It can be said they are also supported by many corrupted higher officials. Even an Emperor Realm Mage will have headaches with all the corruption.
Vayi is a young and developing nation. I want to be a part of it.
I only want to improve my cultivation level from the killings. I can kill any person or beast outside to improve my cultivation level.
I chose Vayi. It's criminals and the people behind them.
I want to start here.
I don't want to play a hero. And I don't want to be a crime fighter in the dark. I just want to take some lifes to increase my cultivation.
Then why not kill these people?
Now,
Two Stage five Mortal Realm Mages. They can't be considered big names in the criminal world. It's just these two are part of the criminal links.
I have restrictions on whom I kill. With both my magic and body cultivations at Stage two Mortal Realm I can't kill below Stage four Mortal Realm. I have to fight with these Stage five Mortal Realm people.
With these restrictions I can only take on individual targets and kill them. Then isn't it better to remove the links in the criminal network? I can leave the small ruffians to the police.
I want to be involved in the criminal network of a nation. Surely I can't break every link and stop the creation of every new link!
Then isn't my involvement going to be bland?
I can make money!
I can keep on breaking these links.
I can avoid the creation of a new link.
My involvement is going to have its characteristics.
Money from selling information..
Information,
That's something I don't lack!
I checked. That woman's background is good. I made a deal. *Sigh* I need to improve my bargaining skills. I sold those two quarreling brothers. Good money. I just received them after the battle.
It's difficult to kill two Stage five Mortal Realm Mages at the same time. If I face the two of them when they are injured, then it's something I can give a try.
I weakened them before I fought them.
I am excited!
Now I am excited and nervous. This nervousness is bad. It feels like everything is a lie, I should stop.
I waited and calmed down. I tried to clear my head. There's no need to be nervous. I have what it takes to kill. I shouldn't be stubborn with my nervousness. I might get hurt.
Everything is an act, I should stop.
I shouldn't just talk, I need to make it a truth. I should say goodbye to this nervousness that's in my way!
Will things happen just because I thought? I don't need to do it!
I shouldn't say everything is a lie now. Everything is not like yesterday! Everything will happen if I don't have this nervousness!
I already gave those two a good amount of time. I need to do it as fast as I can.
I got out of my compartment and moved towards those two brothers.

" Calm down? I need to calm down? What do you think will happen when we meet Simmons? That's a crazy guy. Who's going to pay the price now? Do you think he will give us another chance?" Josh continued to shout at his brother.
John held his head with both of his hands. He's having a headache listening to his brother's complaints.
Suddenly..
Hosa opened the door of the compartment of Josh and John. The system already hacked into the train and he is listening to their quarrel from the start. The door locks were hacked by the system. He opened the door without any resistance from the system support.
Hosa quickly closed the door, then it was locked by the system.
Both Josh and John were shocked when a weird guy in a yellow helmet entered their compartment.
John instantly stood and shouted," Who the fuck are you? How do you get in here?" As he spoke, a few fireballs were thrown from his hands at Hosa. He continued to create fireballs to shoot.
Hosa quickly raised his hands and instantly a thick water shield was formed in front of him. He then rushed towards Josh, who is capable of healing magic between the two brothers.
The fireballs hit the thick water shield and were put out. As more and more fireballs hit the thick water shield, the thickness of the shield declined at a rapid rate. Water vapour covered the shield. Hosa continued to add magic energy into the water shield.
Josh created five Flame Arrows as he saw Hosa rushed towards him. The temperature in the compartment increased when Josh condensed the flame arrows. "Fuck off", He shot them at Hosa. The compartment is small and the flame arrows instantly hit Hosa's water shield.
Hosa's water shield was instantly destroyed as they met the five condensed flame arrows. He was hit with the five flame arrows that lost quite some power from the confrontation with the thick water shield.
Flames from the arrows lingered on Hosa's body but they didn't burn any of his clothes because of the thin protective film on Hosa's body. Still the heat from the flames burned his skin,"Ssss" Hosa hissed with pain. He created a water barrier around him. The water barrier pushed forward from Hosa's body and put off the flames.
Josh continued to create the fire element into different small arrows and knives and shot them at Hosa. In the small compartment they instantly hit the target.
Ignoring the near broken water barrier, Hosa clenched and pulled his right fist and viciously punched Josh's throat. Josh's reaction can't be compared to Hosa's and he couldn't dodge this vicious attack.
Hosa's punch displaced and broke the throat bones in Josh's throat. Josh held his throat with both of his hands and coughed violently as he tried to breathe.
"Brother" anxiously John shouted from the side, as he already created three earth snakes and shot them at Hosa while he saw his brother coughing violently.
Hosa immediately held Josh with both hands and used him as a shield to block the three earth snakes.
