Eugen contacted me so I went to the airport and pick them up.
I meet some unfamiliar faces waving their hands to me and only realize they are from group Wickes when they show me their username.
Before meeting them, I changed my avatar a bit so I look different now with white hair and black eyes including a different hairstyle.
Eugen, the one biggest at the front introduces the others.
Kelli is an energetic girl who wears whatever the hell she wants but she is wearing a dress and a normal top for now.
LUsick, whose username in-game is Luis, looks fragile but I should not judge everything by its cover. He does have impressive defence stats for an ordinary player.
Ten_Tan, whose username in-game is just TT, looks like every introvert shut-in. She is wearing red headphones and an oversized pink hoodie.
Eugen is probably the most normal-looking one here. Just a casual top and jeans.
"Damn!! That was too long!!" He says, stretching.
"My head feels like it is about to drop off." Says Luis.
"Come on guys!! Be more energetic!! We are in Japan!!" Exclaims Kelli.
"Shut up Kelli, this is not the real world." Replies Luis.
"Aww...but I'm pretty sure the developers inputted some sort of tourist attraction right?!"
"Why the hell will they spend their time on that?"
I sigh.
"Don't worry. There are. Somehow to make it more realistic, they did implement everything a country like Japan has." I say.
"Eh?! Yay!! Let's go!!"
The others look dead tired at her remark. They have panda bags under their eyes too.
While Kelli is just...too excited.
But after seeing her teammates, she decided to calm down and they went to the hotel they booked.
"My bad, Kel. We will have to find Karma tomorrow. I'm just too tired today." Says Eugen.
"Nah it's fine."
"Yeah...we will be going now..."
They seem so carefree...tch.
I should go home for the day...hmmm...yeah screw school. There's no point going there anyways.
I inspect my auto cultivation skill
-----------------------------------
Auto cultivation(lvl 2)
current cultivation base: 109200/110000 to the next realm
------------------------------------
!
I'm almost reaching a breakthrough, I should go to a secluded spot.
I went to the mountains behind the airport and finds a waterfall.
perfect...
I go inside the waterfall to the cave behind it and sat there.
I speed up my cultivation by doing basic manual cultivation combined with my skill.
Soon, I feel a surge of power in me and my body emitted a violent impact.
A ray of blue light shoots into the sky and after it dissipates, I feel reborn.
T-This feeling...is amazing. it feels soothing and soft. like a baby?
I stand up and gets out of the waterfall. I have broken through to the emperor realm. my stats are also boosted by 10 times! wow...
Hmm...alright, I should go back and prepare the clone.
when walking back to the airport through the forest, I felt some presence and killing intent all around me.
hm?
I can hear someone laughing softly and can feel almost everyone here is smirking. They are looking down on me?
Who are they? Assassins? After stepping on a twig, they all started attacking together.
I sigh and snap, instantly fracturing everyone here in all four major parts in their arms and legs.
!!!!!!!!!
Since I reach the emperor, I can also manipulate Qi in the atmosphere easily.
One by one, I smirk at their pathetic state, all of them shows sign of fear and terror.
Heh, scared of death huh? Why become an assassin then. I step and crush each of their heads brutally except for the last one. The last poor guy pissed himself watching me kill his comrades mercilessly.
"Tell me who sent you and that will not happen to you."
"Y-Yes!" says the assassin.
The coward revealed his client so easily and i draw my katana.
"Wait! You said you will let me go!"
pfft!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!
"I only said that I won't crush your head, I did not mention letting you live."
!!!!
And I decapitate him.
These assassins are sent by 3 major powerful families...seems like I killed at least one member of their family so they decided to hire some assassins to get rid of me.
Stupid idiots...the three families...I WILL SLAUGHTER EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU.
I am sick and tired of people trying to mess with me and kill me. Since you all want me to disappear so fucking much.
YOU WON'T MIND THE SAME HAPPENING TO YOU, RIGHT?
-------------------------------------------
"Did you receive any reports from the assassins we sent?" says a woman in the Dusch Family.
"No...that's weird. Did that boy kill them all?" Asks a man in the Rescine Family.
"HAHAHAHAHA!!! That's impossible. Although he does know some swordsmanship, he is still crippled trash. Those assassins are in the 4th stage of the soul wandering realm, not to mention 25 of them, he doesn't stand a chance!!" says the elderly in the Taira family.
The three major families and other small families are gathered in one place to celebrate my "death". They do so to show their strength and dominance against other families, warning them not to become an enemy of their family. Impressive, that assassin did not lie. his quick death was worth it. I identified who is who after looking at their face and crest on their shirt.
I notice a waiter coming out into the wild to pee, I smirk at this opportunity.
I kill the waiter and infiltrate the party estate wearing his clothes. This feels like playing a VR hitman game. This is exciting!!
As everyone brings their wine up to cheers. One by one, every single one of them starts to feel drowsy and drops onto the ground.
I smirk at this beautiful sight...
"W-What is going on?!"
?!
Oh...as expected, the leaders of each family have high cultivation, obviously, they will be able to resist the drug.
"You!! Is this your doing" Shouts Liv, woman and leader of the Dusch family.
I look at her and smiles.
!!!
"K-Kel!?!!!! You are not dead?!" Exclaims the leader of Rescine.
"Wait! I see...no wonder he survived...he already stepped into the emperor realm...since when did he recover his cultivation..." Says Liv.
"Tch. No worries. Since he comes to us, He must want to die. Let me take care of him." Says the elderly, Akihiro, leader of the Taira family.
He punches the air and emitted some strong shockwaves.
I sigh as I slice the shockwave in half, creating a trench and butchering that elderly into half instantly.
!!!
That's when the other two start to show signs of fear.
"Damn it!! Attack him together!!"
Both of the remaining leader attacks together. I smirk and slam my fist down on the floor.
*BOOOOM!!*
!!!!
Using the dust to my advantage, I instantly come out and stab the first leader.
!
Liv is fast!
I was left with no choice to finish that leader of Rescine and block her attack.
The clash of her leg collided with my arm and was instantly fractured from the impact.
!!!
"What!?" She exclaims and I kick her stomach.
She flies back in pain and crashes into three tables.
I then turn my attention to the injured and escaping leader of Rescine.
Once he sees me looking at him, he immediately panics. "W-Wait!! I didn't participate in the assassination!! I'm just here because they told me to-"
"Oh really? I don't care, either way, you are still a friend of those bastards. So you and your family MUST die!"
I lift my blade.
"My family?!? W-Wait!! Just kill only me!! Leave my family alone-"
I finish him off and turn my attention to Liv.
Her leg is broken and she is trying to escape by pulling herself away using her arm.
I immediately appear in front of her and grab her neck.
!!!
"Wait...I'm...sorry..."
Liv attempts to speak when I am strangling her.
I shake my head and immediately squeeze her entire neck, blood gushed out from her mouth, eyes and nose before she dies.
Now all that's left is eliminating every single one of them.
For the rest of the day, none was spared.
I killed everyone in every family that attended the party. Even those that do not attend the party but is still in the family died.
Rumours of my cruelty and strength spread. My name instantly become famous and notorious, very few dare to offend me now.
At the same time, I also gained admirers and fans. Weak people regained hope and rebelled against those who are strong.
The article: "A crippled trash becomes a dragon." Spreads all over the world like wildfire.
I sigh.
"You are quite popular aren't you?" Says Eugen.
"Literally everyone is talking about you..." Says Luis.
"Eh?! Does that mean we get free food if we mention that he is at our party?!" Exclaims Kelli.
I stop her. "Don't you dare."
TT is just staring at her muffins and eating them. She's really quiet.
For now, we are still searching for "Karma". There have been some rumours here and there so we decided to check this area out where an Asian black hair swordsman was last seen wreaking havoc...
And yes, I already customised my clone to make it look exactly like me from stage 2 but changed the clothes to fit in with the modern era.
The area is a supermarket beside the sea where lots of people gather.
Once they see my clone on a balcony outside the mall, they nod to one another and me.
I return the nod.
TT then retreats and goes as far as possible.
Kelli sets up her sniper rifle on the third floor and charges it, aiming for precise accuracy and to avoid casualties. Luis was stationed right beside her and Eugen waited with me near the balcony for the ambush.
Finally, she shoots and my clone immediately deflected it.
!!
Wait, oh yeah!! Since my mind is completely focusing on my main body, my mind controlling my clone is on "autopilot" mode!!
I wanted to quickly take control of my clone but Eugen suddenly tells us to charge in.
He tries to go in for a kill. (Calling his clone Karma)Karma immediately ducks and kick his chin. Eugen smirks when he does so and I ambush Karma from behind.
He kicks Eugen away and tries to decapitate me.
!!
I deflect his sword away and tried to decapitate him too. Karma jumps back to dodge as a result and cut the structure supporting the balcony and it falls.
I jump from the balcony back into the mall and immediately land barrages of strikes.
Karma block them all and punched the ground. Dust is flown everywhere and he is nowhere to be seen.
!!!
UGHH!! THIS IS WHY I HATE FIGHTING MYSELF!!!
Sensing Karma somewhere near, I also punch the ground to keep him away.
"Kel!! Kelli finished charging and has locked onto Karma. Move away now!" Says Luis.
"Understood!"
I deflect Karma's sword and kick him back before jumping away myself.
