The Legacy System

Chapter 506 - Eric’s Background



Chapter 506 – Eric’s Background

If he had to place the two options on a scale, Takeshiba Aika\'s life was certainly more valuable than one of his secrets that might uncover his identity.

In the worst possible scenario, he would be forced to use another long distance Escape Talisman and run from this place once again.

"Don\'t worry Master I will take care of her!"

As he was thinking about this situation though, he heard a tiny voice on his head. It was Ice, since she had been mingling with the surroundings and erasing her presence as much as possible he had forgotten about her.

A true assassin in the making, she was able to erase her presence even in such a type of battle and take care of everyone from the dark.

The people on the sidelines weren\'t any less surprised and startled, as they saw Ice suddenly appear out of nowhere and kill the two experts that were aiming at Takeshiba Aika\'s plan.

The two poor guys weren\'t able to understand that death had already seen and grabbed their throats even by the time that the two ice shards penetrated their bodies.

The one who had been shocked the most by this situation was Takeshiba Aika, who was expecting the two guys\' weapons to strike and stab her body, and the pain after.

Seeing Ice help her like that and save her life, she felt that she had been too childish and narrow-minded earlier, for treating her like she did.

Even though she didn\'t say a word to the cold beauty, her face was clearly showing a great gratitude towards her, and a feeling of debt.

For some weird reason, even a cold-blooded assassin like Ice felt extremely complicated upon seeing that look.

There was a weird sensation of warmth, a sense of victory, and also a feeling of responsibility and sister-like attraction.

Discomposed from the sudden attack of feelings, she was unable to concentrate on her current battle, as someone appeared from behind her with a blade, attacking her with killing intent.

Tianlong Yun couldn\'t believe his senses and the situation, a cold-blooded assassin had actually lost her concentration in the middle of the battle, this was an unbearable joke.

At least this time he was prepared for any surprise, as he took out a gun and shoot thrice towards the guy.

That would certainly not kill him, as he was an evolver who had already gone through at least 2 evolutions, so Eric\'s shots were nothing more than mosquito bites to him, probably.

But those bullets weren\'t fired to kill him anyway, he was trying to awaken Ice from her contemplation, and then kill the guy.

In simpler words his shot bullets were nothing more than a few alerting shots for the ice cold beauty, to take care of herself.

Ice seemed to have understood this as well, as without even bothering to look back, she quickly materialized an ice shield behind her, and then jumped towards Takeshiba Aika.

On the other hand, Takeshiba Aika felt like she would never be able to find a better opportunity than this to repay the interests of her debt and immediately jumped from opposite her to the idiot chasing her.

She didn\'t know what Ice truly thought and felt, but to her everyone that dared to even think of placing their hands upon her Master\'s people and stuff, she considered them as stupid enemies that didn\'t know how to spell death.

With those thoughts in mind, she passed by Ice, and without a second thought, she used the broken ice shards that the guy had broken from Ice\'s shield and stabbed him in the chest.

The poor guy had never thought or imagined that something like this would happen to him, and it was already too late to change his fate.

At the same time, Eric dealt with the idiots by his side, as he couldn\'t believe just how good his new boxing technique was.

Each punch would have twice the force and energy of the first, and even though he could only release 3 punches in succession, the third punch actually had 8 times his normal punch\'s force.

Under the shocked gazes of a full crowd, he had managed to actually blow open the head of a Realm 2 fighter through one punch only.

People around him probably were unable to believe that something like that was even possible. Well, the weird part wasn\'t destroying one\'s head like a watermelon with a single punch.

That was something that could happen as much as any other day, but that was if there was at least a 2 Realm difference among the fighters.

Eric and that other guy were on the same Realm and were supposed to have the same strength, yet Eric was able to blow his head up with just one punch.

No one would believe something like this, even if the most trusted person in the world swore that it was true.

Fortunately, the little episode with Takeshiba Aika and Ice had kept the most people\'s attention glued to them, and only a slight few had captured the action.

Those slight few people though were the ones that Eric had to worry about the most, as they were part of the \'elite\'.

What he meant by that was that each and every one of these guys came from a powerful organization or some deep background.

Seeing someone like him, with that strength, it would be practically impossible for them not to invite him to join their sides or kill him to weed out the roots if he didn\'t have a strong background also.

The justification they would use to kill him didn\'t need to be elaborate, they could simply say that they killed him because he made them lose face by refusing, or simply because they didn\'t like him.

The important part was that he either had to accept one of their offers or die! Still, it would be too troublesome to choose upon the right organization that would help him out of this situation.

Even if it were to fool them for the moment, he had to make a great effort, so he decided to better create a background for himself.

"Tch~! These pesky flies are so weak that even my breath can break them apart! When we return to our headquarters I have to ask Master to give me some more challenging mission!"

His words clearly served their purpose as Tegen looked at him and asked in a polite manner,

"Little brother your fighting skills and abilities are a cut above the rest! It truly makes this old man and its disciples feel ashamed of our own!"

"You should be! Even though I haven\'t seen you fighting yet, I think that you aren\'t much of a thing!"

His haughty words clearly attracted him many angered and enraged looks, mixed with a bit of killing intent, which caused him to slightly smile and taunt them together,

"Hahahaha~! What!? Are you unable to accept that you are weak? How about a Life and Death battle with me? Like that, you will either convince me or meet Yama and get a conviction in there!"

The crowd\'s stares and expressions became even more unpleasant to look at, but he didn\'t seem to bother.

In fact, Eric looked just like some kind of hawk preying on his target, while waiting for a possible battle challenge.

Like that not only would he be able to present his strength and standing but also to gain some extra training for himself. That was without mentioning the EXP and SP points he received.

Due to the heavy rewards from the Legacy System, this Exp and SP points might not look like much, but they were extremely important to him.

Furthermore, just a while ago the Legacy System had given him another mission to handle \'Survival and Destruction\'.

Since he had come here with the intention of taking care of these guys, the Legacy System had given him an opportunity by rewarding his efforts and his goals.

During this time every SP and Exp point he received, would be doubled! Unfortunately, time was limited and only one hour or more was left for him.

In other words, this was precisely like one of those special time offers, where he could reap twice the benefits.

For that reason, he was acting so haughty and arrogant. Not to mention that only such attitude would make the other side believe what he was about to say next.

"Hahahah~! Little brother is surely good at jesting! I truly wonder what kind of organization had the destiny and luck to give birth and reform such a special individual?"

"Who said I was joking? I was extremely serious, if there is anyone that wants to come and fight me am more than welcome to try!

My Viper organization has never feared and will never fear anyone that tries to stand on our path!"

"So little brother belongs to the Viper organization! It truly makes one jealous of their luck and ability.

Just that I would like to advise my little brother to be careful! Sometimes words are riskier than bullets and could even get one killed without a trace.

I would certainly not like seeing you suffer for your disrespect and anger! After all, even though the Viper stands behind you, here you are nothing more than one from many!"

"Are you threatening me? Is a Master of the old generation like you trying to scare a young man like myself?

Bravo!!!

Truly bravo!!!

You have opened my eyes today Master Tegen, just let me say this…,
