I did not intend on doing this in the first place but.... whatever...
(few moments prior)
"what? what is it?"
I was driving back to the Zhen mansion after informing the Jiang security team about the upcoming danger, when I got another mini event.
{You got a minor event}
[ event: save the abducted characters]
[event reward: [Bane of villains] skill]
I wasn't much intrigued by the rewards, and with just the event name I could already tell it was to save those heroines and Ran...
but it was all before my eyes set on the extra reward.
[extra reward: route to absolute authority]
".... alright I'm sold."
(a few moments later)
I was able to find out the location where they were held captive, thanks to the gps transmitter that was fixed on one of Jia Li's button.....indeed a smart move by the Zhen family.
I informed both the Zhen family and Jiang family about the whereabouts of their abducted children.
"alright now that it's done let's....."
but before I could start my rescue mission, I saw how both Xie Xing and Jia Li were able to take down several enemies.
'system....it looks like I don't have to much work for this minor event..... hehehe..'
' I mean it's less work for me, right?'
wrong, I was so wrong.
"sister Xie!!"
soon both of them were on the losing end when the bearded boss showed up.
"..... I'm not doing that.... I'm weaker than both of them and they are losing to him, how am I even going to save them??"
"but how?? I don't have any hero points to use!!"
"...wha...?"
< ahem....micro-transaction!!>
'no wonder the hero system is unpopular...'
soon I used most of the money I had stored with me to increase my attributes.
" alright, with this I'm stronger than original Xin....but why didn't you told me this before system?"
It would've made my fight with that masked fucker a whole lot easier.
"oh.... I see.."
just as I was about go and save them, a thought came to my mind.
"....but what if Jia Li and Xie Xing thought that I'm on the enemy's side.... I mean I kind of am.."
"oh.....my Grey Knight outfit....brings back a lot of memories."
"right right!!"
and with that I decided to save all three of them, not as Feng Xin of the Black Odyssey.
"I have to say, miss.....how come everytime we meet, you're always in trouble?"
or as bodyguard Xin.
"Jia Li....who is this guy? do you know him??"
"him?"
but as the hero.
"he's the hero of this city, Grey Knight!!"
(now present)
as I notice my surroundings, there were only few enemies left excluding the boss beardo.
"you both did well, sorry for coming late to the rescue.."
I said as I looked at both Jia Li and Xie Xing.
"but don't worry, I'll handle the rest...you guys go and help your friend over there."
both Jia and Xie had different expressions on their faces, Jia Li had a eyes brimming with hope and Xie Xing who was still skeptical about the whole situation.
"Jia.... I'm still not too sure about this hero of yours.....how did he came at such a right time..."
no wonder she's the cunning business women with sharp instincts.
"stop being so skeptical, we should be glad that he atleast showed up instead of that fucker Xin.."
"hmm.....well if you say it like that, I think you are sort of right....okay let's just do what he says."
dear Jia Li, I know you're trying to defend me and I'm not even Xin but it still kinda hurts..
"ahem..... anyways like I said I'll handle the res..."
before I could continue, two small fries jumped on me....but before they could attack, I easily evaded there attacks and countered both of them in seconds.
before others could react, I took down three more henchmen.
and finally whispered.
[flash]
the remaining henchmen apart from from main boss got paralyzed.
" why aren't you fuckers moving!! do I really have to do everything myself!!"
without wasting anytime, I jumped on the boss, ready to punch him.
"heh so obvious!!"
just as he was about to grab my hand, I pull my hand backward and used a back kick instead.
' a faint!!'
before he could react on it, my kick reached his face and he fall back!! before he could recover, I gave him several jabs on his vital parts and ended with an uppercut and with that I was able to take down the beardo boss.
just as the boss fell, my [flash] skill also ended and the henchmen were able to move again.
"DAMN IT!! BOSS IS DOWN!!"
" now this can go two ways, ONE you walk away ....and TWO...oh who am I kidding!!"
and after that, I easily take down the rest of them.
(few moments later)
"thank you so much Grey Knight!!"
"yeah, I'm sorry, I didn't have to be so skeptical about you after all.....thanks."
Jia Li thanked me with a cheerful expression but what surprised me more was that even Xie Xing became a little soft.
' shut up system.'
"ahem....your welcome, anyways I have to go now....you should probably take care of your friend, it looks like he's waking up."
and with that I disappeared in the shadows.
* * * * * * * * * * *
(Jia Li's POV)
after Grey Knight helped us, he disappeared.....and soon Ran woke up.
" oh Ran... you're finally awake."
before I could get close to Ran, that Xie Xing ran past me and hugged him.
" oh dear brother!! you're finally awake!!"
'bitch!'
and soon the Jiang security team as well as Zhen security team came.....along with that bastard Xin.
" oh Miss Zhen, thank God you're okay."
the Zhen family security team explained how they were able to find out that we have been abducted with the help of the gps tracker that was on my button and how Xin was the first one who informed them.
"when he noticed that the car wasn't taking the original route he informed all of us."
and with that, this chaotic night ended.
* * * * * * * * * * *
(Xin's POV)
After yesterday's minor event, I finally got the rewards I was waiting for.....
[skill: Bane of villains]
[with this skill, you can deal more damage if you're against an evil enemy]
but the more important reward was..
[route to absolute authority]
as I used this reward, a golden gate came right in front of me.
"what are you doing Xin!! hurry up!"
when Jia Li said that, it became clear that no one else other than me can see it.
'...knew it...'
but now there's a new problem....it needs a key.....
and with that, I got a new problem.
'...well atleast, I'm stronger than before..'
" system show me my status!!"
