Chapter 2298
Chapter 2298: I Am an Assassin
This island was really too small. Everyone rushed over as soon as they heard the commotion.
The two elves looked at the people that emerged from the sky and the forest. After getting over their shock, they cried happily.
They were saved!
Furthermore, they recognized Lady Shirley and Mr. Mag. They knew who saved them.
The abyss demon that was rolling on the ground and the abyss demon whose hand was broken, were tied up and tossed to the side.
Elizabeth took out two healing medicinal vials of recovery potion and got the two elves to take them.
Yabemiya got a piece of clothing to cover the younger elf as she concernedly asked, “Are you guys alright?”
The two elves took the advanced recovery potion and their injuries were almost fully recovered. They quickly bowed to all of them and gratefully said, “Thank you. Thank you for saving us.”
“I have seen you two before. You’re from the Night Elves. What are you guys doing here?” Shirley asked the two of them.
“Lady Shirley, I am Cherie and this is my younger sister, Eni. We came to the Demon Islands to look for fruits for Lady Ashley.
…
“This morning, we were asking around with the local demons at the dock. These four demons…”
The older elf started to tell them about the story of how two innocent rabbits were trapped after trusting the words of the demons easily and were almost humiliated and killed.
Mag rubbed his chin and thought to himself, “Seems like Irina has to conduct some anti-scam education. The elven maidens are too innocent and easy to cheat.”
However, it was because of him that they appeared here. After all, he suggested to Ashley to come to look for fruits at the Demon Islands to add into their slimming potion.
Their direction was right, but they happened to meet the bad eggs.
After listening to the two elves, the ladies were furious and immediately turned very hostile towards the two abyss demons.
The abyss demon that was crouching, said with a trembling voice fearfully, “Don’t kill us. We’re from the Abyss Demons. My father is the Sixth Elder. My father won’t let you off if you kill me.”
“Your father is the Sixth Elder of the Abyss Demons. Great, you have no father now.” Mag nodded.
That abyss demon stared at Mag with widened eyes. He opened his mouth in an attempt to speak, but Amy stuffed a coconut into his mouth and he couldn’t speak at all.
“What shall we do with them now?” Miya asked.
“This shouldn’t be the first time that people like them do something like this. Even death by a thousand cuts is too easy for them.” Angela took out a small sharp knife and placed it next to the abyss demon as though he was a pig ready for the slaughter.
Mag nodded his head at Angela. “I’ll leave them to you then.”
Angela immediately put away her knife and stood two meters away. She shook her head and said, “No. I’m not good at killing pigs. It doesn’t match my angelic persona.”
Mag threw her glance and thought. When did she even have that persona? Isn’t she an innocent flirt?
Angela continued on. “Furthermore, this is my secret garden. I don’t want their dirty bodies to contaminate this place.”
Mag glanced at those two abyss demons and said, “Just throw them into the sea to feed the fish. It’s a more ecological method.”
“I’ll do it.” Elizabeth grabbed the two struggling abyss demons and took to the air. She tossed them into the sea casually. Before they landed in the water, dozens of icicles pierced through their bodies. They were thoroughly dead before they landed in the water.
After getting rid of the four demons, Mag brought the terrified elves back to the ship. After drinking a glass of water, they fell asleep under Gina’s healing spell.
“They were terrified but they should be fine after a good rest.” Gina covered them with a blanket after checking the injury on Eni’s leg.
Mag smilingly nodded and said, “Let them have a good rest. Let’s walk around the island to take a look at the scenery and taste the local fruits. I’ll cook for you guys later.”
All of them went onshore again. Even though the island wasn’t big, it was full of fruits just like Angela described.
There was a whole patch of purplish-black wild grapes near the beach. They were juicy and their sourish-sweet taste was irresistible. There was also a huge patch of melon fields slightly further away. The children were jumping up and down, picking melons like a bunch of badgers.
Mag bit into the watermelon that was chilled by Amy. It was cold, sweet, and extremely refreshing.
“A watermelon-flavored slimming tea seems quite good too,” Mag thought. Unfortunately, it was a little too sweet.
Everyone spread out to play on the other small islands and collect the fruits.
Mag made a trip too. He returned 30 minutes later with two large wicker baskets of different fruits. He said he plucked them from the furthest island.

Meanwhile, chaos was erupting on the Abyss Island 500 kilometers away right now. The entire island was in a curfew.
Apparently, the Abyss Demons’ Sixth Elder was struck down by lightning in the middle of the street. Half of his head was gone.
However, this lightning was rather weird. The weather was bright and sunny, so where did the lightning come from?
Moreover, apart from missing half a head, every other part of the Sixth Elder looked very normal. Apparently, he twitched on the ground for quite some time before he went quiet.
The gossip mongers went crazy, but the people in charge remained quiet. They only knew that the elders in the tribe held a meeting for the entire morning. The elders didn’t explain anything in the end. They only buried the Sixth Elder quickly and said he was just killed by lightning.
“Great Elder, I think Sixth’s death is weird. He didn’t look like he was killed by lightning.”
The Great Elder banged his hands on the table and said with frustration, “So, how do you think he died? We were on the island earlier. Did you sense any magic waves? Or, sense any powerhouse’s aura? Even if it was Alex, there had to be some aura, right?”
All the abyss demons looked at one another. Just like the Great Elder said, the Sixth Elder died right in front of them and they didn’t sense anything at all. If it wasn’t lightning, then it meant that the other party’s power was way above theirs.
“The official explanation for this matter will be killed by lightning. Don’t investigate or publicize this matter. Just let this matter pass,” the Great Elder said gravely.
All the elders nodded quietly.
***
The others didn’t know, but Mag did.
He went to test his gun and made true to the promise that he made to that abyss demon. His father was truly gone.
The 9th-tier abyss demon was killed with a shot to his head from 20 km away. Mag was very satisfied with the accuracy and power.
Furthermore, this assault rifle’s stealthiness was great. It could kill without a trace. After putting the gun away, he could even pluck some fruits to take back. There was no time wasted at all.
Mag felt like a cold-blooded assassin. He felt amused by this new persona.
“It’s time to eat!” Mag called out to the maidens on the swings nearby. He had made another seafood feast again. However, he added a roasted goat. Amy and the ladies discovered it on an island where there was a large herd of fat black goats.
