Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: The Target

Demons are creatures of Mythical Forces, Blessed with dark powers while in Possession of the Force known as the Demonic Ki, Demons who are graded by their eyes, Marks and Horns have different properties.

But since their official prey are living creatures, They feast on humans!

Only A Few Highly Marked Demons and Eyed Demons possesses Intelligence but Horned Demons are also Humanoid by nature, They are referred to as Generals of their own ways and kinds.

In other to fight back, Humanity broke through their limits, Creating Technologies that's beyond their imagination, Technologies known as the Qi, Shredding the skin of demons and turning them into Battle suits.

Transforming a Demonic heart into a core which will also merge with the soul of a human to grant them the powers to kill demons, This is how Humanity were able to recover from their losses.

Hunting demons to create more Battle suits and using Demonic Organs as Generators to power up their Weapons, Creating Spatial Beams and Qi blasts that could literally destroy a demon with a single blasts.

That came about the Existence of the Veil.....A Barrier created from this Technology, An Anti Demon Domain that protects the Empire from demons and even humans, What can kill a Demon can easily kill a human.

The Huntsmen is Specially trained for hunting demons while soldiers are forces for the Empire!

Although they are both equipped with Battle suits and Qi Weapons, Soldiers are experienced when it comes to fight their fellow humans but Huntsmen are practically demon hunters, Forces to destroy demons.

Unlike those who are all about their battle suits and to unleash their cores in other to possess even more Chaotic powers, There are a few humans known to be skilled that they could kill demons without suits.

Such Humans are rare to come across with, Possessing what is known as Battle Arts and Skills that defines their Strengths amongst their fellow humans.

The Report of The Lyxx Breakdown spread like wild fire across the Empire as Lyxx is currently Overwhelmed by countless soldiers trooping in to stop a single being, The Infamous Deathmaker.

A Large Explosion was heard right at the entrance of Lyxx, Breaking through all their Securities, The Deathmaker made his way out of the building when he yawned softly, Breathing in fresh air, He chuckled softly.

" Based on the Informations I received from that soldier I tortured, My Battle suit and weapons are currently located at a Military Operation Site mainly for the Royal Family, If I get them....I could kill her "

The Deathmaker said when he grinned evily!!

He heard fast approaching Footsteps when he chuckled softly, Moving like the wind.....He Activated his Skill, Fleet Foot....

[ Fleet Foot: A Skill that grants him the ability to move so fast he merged with the wind ]

The Crimson Lion Company and the Bear Claw Company were deployed without hesitation, Captain Rudeus rode his horse while charging towards the Direction of Lyxx, Behind him were his men.

More than Fifty Huntsmen riding on their horses, Their cores were Glowing brightly while they are prepared to release their Auras, Captain Rudeus noticed something.....A Rushing Wind whooshed passed him.

He slowly turned back when he widened his eyes in shock.

He was barely able to catch a glimpse of the Deathmaker when he quickly turned his horse, His Men were confused but they followed him, Scattered across the field while following their Captain Rudeus.

" Deathmaker, I have no idea were you are going but I will end you today " Captain Rudeus spoke out when he Unsheathed his sword, He brought out a syringe when he injected his horse with the syringe.

The Neighing sounds of his Horse became louder when veins spread across its body and the Horse became ten times faster, Releasing shockwaves into the air while Captain Rudeus is currently in pursuit of The Deathmaker.

The Deathmaker noticed the chase when he increased his speed, Passing through corners while being pursued by Captain Rudeus, He caused his body to glow when he leapt high into the air without hesitation.

The Commotion has already reached the heart of the Royal Palace, Emperor Argilac could be seen dressed on his throne when A Military Commander made his way into the Throne room without hesitation.

" What is happening? Why is there an emergency alarm? " Emperor Argilac asked.

" Your Highness, We are all ashamed to inform you but The Deathmaker has broken out of Lyxx, I don't know how he did it but we have lost tons of soldiers and Huntsmen, The Bear Claw Company and the Crimson Lion are currently chasing him "

The Military Commander Answered when the Emperor Argilac gnashed his teeths in anger, The Three Princes remained calm as they stood before their father, The Princess has already left for her chambers.

" How is that possible? How could that boy break free from Lyxx? I made sure to cross-check the Prison Facility so he won't be able to break out " Emperor Argilac spoke out with anger, He is seen flaming up.

" Father, There is no reason to be worried.....He won't escape Vermax and he will be killed, I will lead the Royal Force to hunt him down " The Second Prince spoke out in a calm manner, Showing his Support.

" My Princes, There is no reason for you guys to stress yourselves concerning this issue, The Military Force will handle it....We don't even need the Demon Hunting Corps because we are strong "

The Military Commander spoke out with pride.

" You have my permission, That Brat has insulted the name of Lyxx by Breaking out, If you see him....You are permitted to kill him " Emperor Argilac spoke with pride when the Military Commander nodded.

" Very well then, We will carry out your Commander your highness " The Military Commander said and he made his way out of the scene, Emperor Argilac sat on his throne when he took a deep breath.

" That Damned Deathmaker boy, He keeps stressing me " Emperor Argilac said.

Meanwhile the chase continued for minutes until Captain Rudeus halted, He sat on his horse when he gazed at the Military Special Operation Site, He is just a Company's Captain, He isn't certified enough to enter.

Lyxxx is located at the deep center of a Forest controlled by the Military Force of the Vermax Empire, Since it is a Military Controlled Base, It is mostly watched and controlled by the Soldiers of Vermax.

Everything that is happening is currently happening in the woods!!

" Captain Rudeus, What are we going to down now? We do not have the permission to raid the Federal Military Operation Site of the Royal Family, We could be imprisoned if we do " An Huntsman spoke out.

" Be calm, We wait... Whatever he is doing there, We will wait for him and we will kill him " Captain Rudeus Answered with pride while sitted on his horse when he heard screams behind him.

Four bodies dropped heavily on the ground and their heads rolled, Their horses were severed in pieces like it's nothing, It became a blood bath with bloods splashing heavily on the huntsmen like it's nothing.

" Oh? You think that's the right decision? "

The Voice of the Deathmaker was heard when he stood right behind Captain Rudeus, Cladded in his battle suit, He held his bloody sword when he grinned evily, Staring directly into The Captain's Eyes.

" The Deathmaker!! " Captain Rudeus voiced out.

" Well that's what I am and besides, You noticed my Fleet Foot Skill, Unlike the others, You are quite interesting so I won't kill you or waste your Huntsmen, Don't get in my way " The Deathmaker spoke out.

Captain Rudeus was overwhelmed by the intense killing intents he felt, The Deathmaker vanished from the scene without hesitation, Vanishing with the wind and Captain Rudeus barely could even move his body.

He thought the Deathmaker was just a Trained Teenage Assasin but the figure he saw is far more terrifying than just a Trained Assasin, It's just like there is a Demon living inside of him, A Demon far too nefarious.

" Captain Rudeus, What are we going to do....The Deathmaker escaped "

An Huntsman spoke out while ready to chase against the Deathmaker but Captain Rudeus knew what is going to happen, Such warnings doesn't come twice, If they chased against the Deathmaker, He would kill them.

The Entire forest is flooded with Thousands of Soldiers searching for the Deathmaker as this is already a Military Operation, The Alert System has already seized because they don't want to make the Capital fear what may happen!!

Princess Lily could be seen sitted on her bird with her windows open, The Fresh wind blew Heavily while she remains relaxed, She noticed something when she slowly rose up from the bed.

" Who's there? " Princess Lily asked in shock.

She slowly turned when she noticed a Blade directed behind her, She couldn't even make a move while sweating heavily, She could feel the sharpness of the blade as it slowly got close to her neck.

" Hello Princess? " The Voice of the Deathmaker was heard when Princess Lily slowly turned to see The Deathmaker standing before her, How he got here remains a Mystery since no one noticed it.

" The Deathmaker, What are you doing here? " Princess Lily asked in shock, She could feel the Intensity, She knew if she screamed or tried to scream, He could chop her head off without hesitation.

" Well I came here to complete my job, Your head..... Someone paid me to kill you Princess " The Deathmaker Answered with a calm voice, His eyes were cold as he gazed at The Princess Lily, Ready to kill her.

" Someone Paid you to kill me? If that's true why then didn't you kill me when we were outside of the Empire, Fighting against that Fire Type Demon....Why then did you bother saving me? " Princess Lily asked.

" Ummmm because it was fun, I wanted to visit this Empire once again to cause a little casualty before I killed you And I did so it's time to die " The Deathmaker said when he held his blade firmly.

" I read your files, You were always quick when it comes to assasinating a target, Why are we still talking? You could have just killed me already? Why do you hesitate? " Princess Lily calmly asked.

" Why? Because I want to " The Deathmaker Answered.

" There is something I'm curious about Princess, You were the only one who knew I could escape whenever I wanted, That Prison was just merely a wall of paper for me, I could easily tear my way out "

" How did you come to that conclusion? " The Deathmaker asked calmly!

" Isn't it simple? You are an S-Class Level Assasin, Someone who killed my Uncle....I knew my uncle and I was sad when he died, I vowed to kill thean who killed my Uncle but here I am, Standing before you " Princess Lily said.

" I see....And do you wish to kill me? " The Deathmaker asked!

" Yes, My Uncle was like my second father, I would never forgive the man who killed him, I don't care if it was merely a job for you to kill him, I will kill you so it's best to kill me right here and now " Princess Lily voiced out.

" He-he-he-he, Such an interesting fellow you are, Very well then...I won't kill you today considering you hate me, I would like to see how much your hatred towards me will drive you to hunt me down " The Deathmaker said when he slowly Shealthed his sword back into his Scabbard Behind him.

" Huh? You aren't going to kill me? " Princess Lily asked.

" Yeah, I changed my mind..... Killing you wasn't a special mission eitherway and the pay wasn't large enough for me to execute without failure, You seems to be an interesting fellow, You and that Captain guy " The Deathmaker said with a warm smile plastered on his face.

" You are making a wrong Decison keeping me alive " Princess Lily said.

" Hmph you think? And besides you are wrong about one thing, I didn't kill Adrian because it's a job, I made him pay for his sins, There is a difference " The Deathmaker said when he smirked evily.

" You made him pay for his sins? What do you mean by...." Princess Lily couldn't complete her statement when she couldn't feel his presence anymore, The Deathmaker vanished into the wind.

Without a single trace, It's just like he ceased to exist!!
