"Ding"
[System has detected a F-rank detection ability "Analyze"][Would host like to steal it, the cost is 200 system points]As he heard this, the edges of his mouth rose to reveal a smile."Yes" Felix said in his mind as he stared at Dave's hand."Ding"[Stealing ability (1%..29%..54%..76%..99%..100%)][You have spent 200 system points and gained a new skill "Analyze"][Analyze][Level 1]Rank:F+Cost:100 mpDescriptionIt enables the user to see the stats of an item."Its aura is shows that of a E Rank weapon but the pressure and the appearance of the dagger shows that it is of a higher grade" Dave said with exhaustion as he handed the dagger back to Felix unwillingly."Where did you get this dagger, I would like to buy it but don't worry, I promise to give you a good price" Dave said to Felix as he stared at the dagger with stars in his eyes."Sorry but I am not selling, I have enemies after my life and if I tell you about it, it will only put you you in danger" Felix said to Dave as he placed the dagger in his pocket."Who did you offend now Felix, huh?" Dave said with a grin."Do you know anything about this organization?" Felix asked Dave as he handed him the assassin's card."This... Shadow" Dave stared at the card so intently that Felix thought a hole would appear in it and at this moment, he noticed that Dave's hand was shaking."Is everything okay?" Felix asked Dave after seeing his trembling fingers."Do you even know who you have offended?.. shadow is one of the biggest underground assassination organization in the city" Dave said in a shaky voice and Felix could sense the fear in it."Is this related to your shop's incident?" Dave asked Felix with a grim expression."Yes it is and don't worry, I wasn't followed if that's what you are thinking about, I will leave tomorrow so that you will not be dragged into this" Felix said with a smile as he collected the card."I don't think you understand the gravity of this situation, their leader is a S rank Esper with the fire manipulation ability, a B rank ability, where did you even get the card, it can be used to track you, damn it get rid of it now" Dave said in a rushed tone as his face became red."An S rank Esper, this is bad, I will get rid of it but first I need to use this to my advantage, lure them to me?" Felix said with a smile as a plan suddenly appeared in his mind."Are you crazy?, you are talking about luring F rank and E rank Espers to my shop maybe even higher, what has gotten into you?, you are behaving strangely" Dave asked in disbelief because he thought that Felix behavior was a little strange."I am no longer the Felix who used to cower in fear or submit to bullying, I am a changed man, you should expect more changes from me" Felix said mysteriously with a smile as he placed the card in his pocket."It will take the organization at least two days to find me with all my preparations so in that time, I need to make a plan" Felix thought to himself."You can stay here today but you need to leave tomorrow okay, I am already putting myself in danger by keeping you here, your room is second room on the left, you can find a first aid kit there, you look awful " Dave said to Felix while turning off the shop light which made him smile.Felix walked to his room because he was still in pain from his injuries and after the fight, some had opened up but he had tied them up before coming here so after entering his room he took proper care of his injuries then fell asleep but with his years of experience, he knew that you should never sleep with your two eyes closed.As Felix was sleeping, he heard a sound which was very faint but with his high perception, he heard it which made him stand up with a start.He headed to the source of the sound and as he did, he started hearing some voices so he went closer for more clarity and he managed to catch a hint of the conversation."Yes thanks for coming, did you bring the money?" Dave said in a quiet voice to someone who Felix couldn't see."Yes but first tell me where is he?" A deep voice sounded from inside the room and Felix was 100% sure that he was the one Dave was talking to but he also started to feel rage because he knew instantly who they were."That lying betraying son of a... " Felix said but cut himself off because he heard something that caught his interest."He is in the second room on the left, what has he got that is so important that you would put up a bounty of 5 E rank beast cores" Dave said to the voice."They put up a bounty of 5 E rank beast cores, wait isn't that 5000 F rank beast cores, I don't care I have to get out of here, damn it, I forgot the dagger, I need to go back for it" Felix said to himself as he made his way back to the room."Here's the money, fan out and secure the area, find him and the book, if you find him, kill him immediately, he is considered a dangerous target, he killed an F rank assassin so treat him how you would an F rank enemy, he isn't getting out of here alive" Felix heard the voice say as he made his way to the room so he quickened his steps.He got to the room and found the dagger on the table but as he wanted to take the bag with his things, he felt that it would slow him down so he started to contemplate on whether to take it or not but then he heard footsteps approaching his room so he took out some of the cores and stashed them in his bag while placing the rest of the things on the bed but as he did, his hand accidentally hit a vase on the table.SMASHThe vase fell off the table and smashed on the ground and as it did, Felix heard the footsteps quicken towards his location so he grabbed the bag and looked around the room for a place to hide.The door opened and the assassin stepped into the room and looked around the room but didn't find anything so he walked around the room and spotted the broken vase on the ground."This must be what broke just now so it means the target is still in the room" The assassin said as he knelt down and inspected the vase and as he stood up and prepared to searched the room, he felt a cold blade on his neck which made his legs go cold then he heard the bone chilling voice filled with killing intent."Make a single sound and it will be your last" Felix said to the man with the dagger against his neck."Oookay, please don't kill me, I will do anything you ask" The assassin said in fear but in his mind he was thinking, "Wait till you are distracted, you will see what will happen to you""Good boy, answer all my questions and I will spare your life but any funny moves and you won't even know how you died, how many are you and what are your ranks?" Felix asked the man as he laughed in his mind, how could he not see what the man was thinking."There are 6 of us, we are all F ranks except our leader who is a F+ rank" The assassin said as Felix pressed the knife closer to his neck."So six F ranks and 1 F+ rank with unknown abilities against me with years of deadly combat experience I think i can manage these odds" Felix said to himself but his attention was still on the assassin so when the assassin thought he was distracted and tried to disarm him, he immediately pressed his arm against his mouth and slit his throat before following with a quick stab to the heart.The assassin fell to the ground limply with a look of disbelief as if he didn't believe that he was just killed by Felix but Felix knew why this fight was easier than the first, he had added a point to strength when the assassin came into the room and the element of surprise."Ding"[You have killed a F rank esper and gained 100xp][You have gained 200 system points]"Now for the next part of the plan" Felix said to himself with a smile as he heard the system notification."I found him, I need help to find the book" Felix shouted at the door to the nearest assassin after switching his and the assassin's clothes. "I came in and met him sleeping and and as I tried to kill him, he rushed me so I slit his throat" Felix said to the man when he entered the room as he imitated the first assassin's voice."Oh where is the body? "The second assassin asked him so Felix led him to the body of the dead assassin."Good job, wait isn't this 1's tatt..." The man said as he recognized the dead assassin's tattoo but was cut off by Felix who immediately stabbed him in the head before he could raise an alarm. "Ding"[You have killed a F rank esper and gained 100xp][You have levelled up to level 2 and all stats increased by 1 and you have also gained an additional stat point with 200 system points]As he levelled up, he felt a cool stream of energy flow through his body, he felt refreshed and his mana was refilled."Whew, that was close I need to be more careful, add th
After leaving the shop, Felix headed straight to an inn where he booked the most expensive room and ordered food and medical help. In the slums, crime was their motto so if someone came into an inn with blood stained clothes and a dead body, as long as enough money was paid, you were never there. "The reinforcements should have arrived but since I didn't leave any tracks, as long as no-one sold me out, it would take long before they track me so that gives me enough time to get my things together and get stronger, system how do I become a F+ rank Esper?" Felix asked the system after tending to his wounds and eating the food provided to him. [Every 10 levels promotes you to the next rank so when you reach level 10, you will be promoted to a F+ rank Esper, you have 7 more levels to be promoted to the next rank]"That's a long way to go, I will think about it in the morning" Felix said as he lay in bed to sleep because he was exhausted and he needed to rest for his injuries to heal. I
[You have killed a F+ rank Kreed and gained 200xp and 400 system points]"Isn't that a kreed, how did you sense it" The man said with a shocked expression as he looked at Felix like he was a monster, kreeds were one of the medium non human tribes but they were know for their stealth, it was almost impossible for someone of the same level to notice a kreed so kreeds were sometimes feared because they were lethal assassins but right now this man before him had sensed it and killed it instantly."Why is a kreed here, aren't they found in the darkness continent" Felix said with surprise because even he was shocked by the appearance of a kreed, he had sensed it's presence long ago but since he had not sensed any bad intentions from it he had thought it was one of Connors men but immediately he sensed the slightest killing intent from it, he had attacked with his full strength."Yes they are, so it being here shows that something is wrong, please excuse me, I have to report this to the patr
"Who is he, what family is he from, how powerful is he" The proud man's thoughts kept racing as he stared at Felix who was being attended to by the manager himself, the manager who could wipe out his entire family. "Thank you sir, is that all?" The manager asked with a smile but secretly he was surprised, he also had a storage ring but his was obtained through hard means and he was also surprised by the calmness displayed by Felix when he spoke to him, he was used to people treating him with fear and respect but this man in front of him showed no fear."Actually no, I would like to buy a high levelled bow" Felix said calmly with a smile as he received all the daggers which had been carefully packaged then placed them in his storage ring. "Okay sir, right this way" The manager said with a smile as he led Felix up the stairs to the second floor. "Let's go, we have nothing to do here" The proud man said as he walked out of the shop without waiting for the beautiful woman or his guard.
"Okay straight to the point, I see that you are a straightforward person, I would be making a trip to the F rank beast forest to hunt and also gain experience and I want you to accompany me" Connor said with a wide smile as he explained his mission."So first you send someone to tail me and now you want me to accompany you to a hunting trip, what do you think I am?, a mercenary?" Felix said angrily as he glared at Connor who smiled in return."Please forgive me for my rudeness, I just thought you wanted to gain some experience, we will be on our way if you don't mind, we won't disturb you ever again" Connor said and turned to leave as he pretended to be sorry, an act which didn't fail to be recognized by Felix keen eyes."Wait" Felix said as they were about to leave, it wasn't that he didn't want to go but it was just too suspicious for him, he couldn't just want to build up good ties with him, there had to be a catch and why did he keep on smiling, it irritated him. "Did you change
"The target has gained the help of the Alexander family but that shouldn't change anything, kill them all and eliminate the target at all costs," The leading purple-cloaked figure said in a voice that could send chills down one's spine, they quickly followed the group.Meanwhile, the targets were already encountering monsters that were easily taken care of, Felix knew that he could gain experience from killing these monsters but he wanted a monster that could challenge him and raise his battle intent, so he left these for the others who finished off these monsters easily, without even using their abilities.The others stared at Felix weirdly, especially Pig Face who gazed at him smugly thinking that Felix wanted to act mysteriously, but he didn't know that even if he acted normal, to others Felix would be mysterious, he just possessed that aura of mysteriousness.Connor just smiled like he knew what he was thinking, he also wanted to fight a monster that could challenge him so he only
He was thinking of how to escape when the Ape glanced straight in his direction with one eye, and immediately he locked eyes with it , he lost control over his body, at that same moment, all the monsters rushed towards him, this scene caused Felix's heart to skip a beat, it seemed like he had screwed up big time.His camoflague ability was also deactivated so he was clearly visible to the approaching monsters. This was exactly what he was afraid of, the One Eyed Frost Ape was as skilled in soul attacks as it was in physical attacks, and the skill it just used on him was called "Soul Chains" and he knew that it could kill him instantly but it wanted him to be ripped apart by the raging monsters."System is there any way that I can escape, I can't move my body" Felix asked the system with a panicked tone. [There is a way but it isn't available to you at the moment]"So I am doomed" Felix said and for the first time since he arrived in this world, he showed genuine fear which seemed to
"Ding"[You have killed a D+ rank One-eyed frost ape with the bloodline of an Ancient Frost Ape and gained 10,000xp and 5000 system points]The One-Eyed Frost Ape fell to the ground with a thud and immediately after, the cold air that had previously caused the temperature of the environment to decrease also disappeared."It's dead, it's finally dead" An E rank Esper said in disbelief, he couldn't believe his eyes, just a moment ago, he felt like he could see death smiling at him and it wasn't just him, the others also felt the same."Who shot that arrow?" The D+ rank Esper asked, his body littered with scars which he disregarded and walked towards the Espers, his eyes scanning the group of Espers still alive for any sign of the Archer who had finished off the Ape."I did" Felix replied with a smile as he appeared next to the D+ rank Esper, and took out his arrow and dagger from the One-Eyed Frost Ape's heart, while also secretly cutting off a huge part of its heart and flesh which he s
