Chapter 7 - Chapter 8: Slashing through the storms

It's being three days since the Lyxx Break out, The News of the Deathmaker escaping from One of the most secured Prison Facility of the Vermax Empire spread out like wild fire, Such news couldn't be kept a secret.

It started from being rumors until it was confirmed to be true.

Emperor Argilac who is Furious about everything ordered a Lockdown while the Armies and the Huntsmen were released across the Capital, The Veils has been closed so no one could leave or enter.

All the Soldiers equipped with Battle suits perfectly created to hunt down humans, They were searching around for the one who is known as the Deathmaker, The Infamous Assasin of the North.

The Royal Capital Rubenious has soldiers searching from buildings to buildings while the Watchmen were active, A Curfew has been released since The Armies are scattered across the plain.

The Princess already reported that she was a target of the Deathmaker, Even Enraging the Emperor further, In this three days.....The Armies were on high alert, Ready to kill anyone who stood against them.

" My My, It seems the Soldiers are really looking for this Deathmaker guy, But how is it possible for him to break out of Lyxx? Isn't that the most highly secured Prison? " A Voice was heard from inside a Bar.

A Bar filled with many who were high while drinking their lives out.

Located at the Northern Side of Rubenious, This is the Underground Town of the Royal Capital, An Area filled with Dirty Merchants and Assasins who found their way into the Capital City of the Vermax Empire.

A Young Figure made his way into the bar while covered in red robe, He could be seen holding a bag, His face is hidden with the red hood he had on him, Entering into the bar, All eyes were on him.

" Damn that Veil, I can't possibly leave Vermax while the Veil is still active, Emperor Argilac knows that " The Mysterious Figure said to himself with a warm smile on his face as he walked into the bar.

He took his seat when he sighed calmly, Watching Soldiers roam around!!

He could hear people gossiping about the Deathmaker who just recently escaped from Lyxx, Ordering a drink to blend in, He was given an alcohol which he gently opened up with his teeth, No one could easily move around.

It didn't take them a few minutes before soldiers made their way into the bar, Holding their Swords firmly while dressed in their Suits, The Mysterious Figure sighed as he stared at the soldiers.

" Listen to me you filthy Merchants and Contractors, Emperor Argilac has released a bounty on the head of the one whose name is the Deathmaker, Whoever can find him will be blessed bountiful by the Emperor himself, Contact us if you have any information regarding the Deathmaker " One of the Soldiers voiced out after scanning through the bar and he decided to leave.

" What a joke, Does the Emperor think we will turn on the Deathmaker Even if we saw him? He is literally a Star of the Assasin Guild, If we snitched on him....We will die " One of the few men in the bar spoke out.

Another made a joke which caused them all to laugh!!

The Mysterious Figure smiled when he brought out a card, He checked to see a red cross on his mission, Indicating that he failed the mission when he chuckled softly, He closed the card when he kept it back in his pocket.

" Based on my calculations, Things will slowly start to cool down but I will have to take my leave now, The Veil may be a problem but I can't ignore the military power of the Vermax Empire in total "

" Even I couldn't kill them all and besides it would be a pain in the ass fighting those Platoon Generals combine " The Mysterious Figure said to himself when he walked up to the Bartender desk.

" Thanks for the drink, I will be leaving now " The Mysterious Figure said when he drop two silver coins on the table before turning to leave, He slowly made his way out of the bar when he breath in the fresh air.

" Now I need to return to the North " The Mysterious Figure said while revealing his Eye-patch, The Eye-patch which is known to be in Possession of the Deathmaker, The Man of Great Chaos and Destruction.

" The Baylor Slaughter Incident, There are still few more folks who were responsible for such catastrophe, I have a purpose and a mission " The Deathmaker said when in that instant, He vanished from the scene, Moving with supersped as he is seen running while on the rooftops, Moving with the wind.

He was detected by Motion Detectors which informed the Soldiers around them.

" Motion Detectors huh? Vermax really are crazy when it comes to Techs " The Deathmaker said when he brought out a dagger, Clicking a button on the dagger...He increased his speed while moving in different styles.

Huntsmen equipped with their battle suits were sent after him, The Bear Claw Company especially since they are highly equipped, The Soldiers were also trailing him like it's nothing, The Wind blew Heavily.

The Deathmaker frowned as he leapt high, Jumping from the rooftop!

He landed on the ground when he sighted two soldiers charging against him, He moved with quick speed, Slitting their throats as he dashed off, He Activated his Skill: Fleet Foot.... Enhancing his speed.

He passed through corners when he started receiving targeted beams, They have been authorized to kill him on target after all, But Emperor Argilac knew the Deathmaker couldn't be killed easily.

" He-he-he-he, I had no intentions of showing my Powers against mere soldiers but I have to break through the Veil in other to leave here, I have to wipe them all out " The Deathmaker said with a bright smile on his face.

He slowly took off his Eye-patch when his left eye glowed brightly!

A Mark glowed brightly on his left eye when the Battle Suits of the Soldiers started malfunctioning and within seconds, Time became slow but he wasn't restricted by the slow time after all.

His Second Skill: The Canceller!

[ The Canceller: A Skill that was directly imbued in his left eye by Assasin Guild, It grants him the powers to cancel and disrupt anything, The Battle Suits Enhanced by Qi, Motions Which slows down movements and even skills ]

While motion is being cancelled, Slowing down everything, The Deathmaker increased his speed through the Fleet Foot Skill, He killed two soldiers before him when he quickly turned as he supersped.

Charging directly towards the Direction of the Great Veil!!

The Deathmaker grinned evily when his suit suddenly glowed brightly, His Battle Suit was created from the body of a Single Horned Demon which he killed once, Increasing his physical abilities.

Through the battle suit, The Deathmaker is Naturally fast and strong but now he possesses Super Strength that he could lift tons of objects, And amplifying his speed with the Fleet Foot Skill.

He is known as the Fastest Assasin to ever exist, He came Approaching a Cliff and before him was the Veil that could literally incinerate a demon talkless of a human, So it can't be breached by Anything.

It cannot be breached by Anything except something that has the power to even cancel it out!!

The Deathmaker took a deep breath when he leapt high from the cliff, He Unsheathed his sword mid air when he increased the powers, Causing his left eye to glow Brightly, Directing its force towards the Veil.

He landed a single hit on the Veil.... Breaking through something that is known as Impregnable.

He sliced through the Veil when he dived right out of the Veil and he landed heavily on the ground, Breaking a few bones and within seconds, The Veil closed back, Repairing nearly instantly.

The Deathmaker chuckled softly as he slowly rose up to his feet, This became known to the Emperor himself, Piercing through the Veil has been known to be an impossible feat to accomplish.

Not even demons could easily break through the Veil and The Deathmaker did it.

" As expected, My Skill could neutralize the Veil for some seconds since it cancels nearly anything, This will put me in Vermax most wanted list again but I am used to it already, He-he-he-he "

The Deathmaker said with a warm smile plastered on his face, Closing his left eye with his Eye-patch when he sighed, He Shealthed his sword back in the Scabbard when he turned to leave the area.

Outside of the Veil is a Chaotic Incarnation of wilderness, A Desert filled with Deadly Sand snakes, Sand worms and Demonic Creatures loitering around that you can't leave the Capital without being protected by Huntsmen or soldiers.

But a single man is seen walking through the wilderness because he knows who he is, The Infamous Deathmaker, Killing every sand worms and Sand snakes he came across with pride as an Assasin.

Deep inside an Unknown Cave, A Cave who's walls is filled with ancient runes and Dark Symbols, Torches of fires hung around, Footsteps could be heard in the cave when a woman dressed in red made her way into the scene.

Covering her face with a mask as she made her way deep into the cave!!

She could feel the drenchful wind blowing across the air, Dressed in her red gown....She entered into the deepest part of the Cave when she gazed at a Figure who is seen sitted on a throne, Overwhelmed by darkness.

" My Lord, The Deathmaker has successfully escaped the Royal Capital of Rubenious and the Princess still lives " The Woman voiced out when she gazed at the figure who remained in the darkness.

" The Princess still lives and the Deathmaker isn't in Vermax anymore? That means only one thing, He failed to do his job.....If he wanted to kill her, He could have killed her before even being brought to the Empire "

The Dark Voice of the Man sitted in the Darkness was heard, You could feel the monstrosity in his voice, His dark green eyes shines brightly from the darkness but his face or even his body could never been seen.

" What are we going to do now? " The woman asked.

" There is nothing to be done, The Princess has to die.....She is a Key that shouldn't exist in the first place, I failed to obtain the source of The Qi seventeen years ago and I am paying for that already "

" Adrian left the key in that girl before he died so the Princess must die, I don't care who does it but she must not live until her eighteenth birthday, Find a way and kill that girl " The Dark Voice ordered with authority.

" Yes my Lord.....I will send someone else to kill her " The woman said.

" The Storm is approaching and the Lord of Nemesis shall rise soon, We have to keep everything under how Control before that happens, The Demons of Astaroth will soon be under my control as he promised "

" But first.....The Girl dies!! "
