I slowly looked to my side and saw a wide eyed dead body with a bloody hole on it's left eye, It was the bald guy. And on seeing his body not disintegrating into light particles like most video games, I suddenly felt fear grip my heart.
Looking back at the lanky guy and seeing the pistol pointed at me, I quickly side rolled.
*Bang*
He missed.
"Rule number one: Don't panic. Rule number two: Never turn your back at a gun." While reciting my own made creed, I quickly ran up to the guy before he could pull the trigger again, and drove my shoulder into his chest.
The lanky toppled over while losing his grip on the gun, and vomited blood while violently coughing. I picked up the pistol with a feeling of accomplishment and pointed it at the lanky man who kept coughing up more blood. I've handled a lot more than a pistol back at the states and wasn't moved by his sorry state.
"Rule number three: Always pay blood with blood" I recited again.
*Bang"
The lanky man fell to the floor with a bloody hole in between his brows. Locking the safety of the pistol which I recognize as a 'Colt 1911', I shook the Colt into the front of my gray shorts, covering it up with my white sleeveless shirt.
[You killed George backlund]
[You have leveled up]
[You have completed a hidden quest 'Execute the serial killer']
[You have leveled up]
[You have leveled up]
[You have gained the title 'Pioneer' for having the first kill in Infinity]
[You have gained the title 'Heartless' for killing a person without remorse]
*Speechless*
"Wow... Looks like I've got good karma here" I grinned at myself while walking over to the lanky man's corpse, and doing a quick body search.
*Whistle*
I heard the sound of a whistle in a distance, followed by approaching footsteps. I quickly took the small pouch and and a palm sized wooden case I found on the man, and ran in an opposite direction mixing up with the crowd.
There was no way the authority's here would link me to the murder of George because, they weren't any eye witness at the scene, so... I was never there.
"Status" I called out, but nothing happened. After a few more tries with no success, I gave up.
"Damn... I think I'm trapped in this game... And what would be of the bald guy... His body was supposed to disintegrating but it didn't. Is he dead for real?" I kept on muttering to myself.
And that was when I saw a familiar figure mixed in with the crowd, 'Anya Hales'.
I guess today is my lucky day
I began to tail her while keeping my distancing. Making me feel pretty much like an assassin with the pistol on me.
After quite some time I saw her take a detour into an alleyway, I sneakily walked up to the alleyway and peeked from the side into the alleyway but I couldn't see far, the sun had already set and it was getting dark pretty fast.
With no other choice... I walked into the alleyway, keeping my steps light while squinting my eyes to get a better view, and soon... I got to a dead end.
"F*ck" I muttered to myself. 'How the f*ck did she know I was tailing her?' I turned around slowly, to see the silhouette of an 'hour glass' figure, blocking the path to my retreat.
"Leonardo Garcia?... Would you care to explain to me... why you were tailing me?" I heard the familiar low, threatening tone.
I smirked and began to walk towards her slowly, not giving her a reply. The only sound that could be heard from the alleyway was my low footsteps echoing loudly, till I was one foot away from her.
I could see her clearly now. She was putting on a white crop top with a customized black pants, accustomed with high heel boots.
Damn... She was looking hot
