Hitman with a Badass System

In the eastern border that separated Gisel and Maven, Stormveil mountain stood tall. The mountain range was almost a thousand miles long and reached 40,000 feet at its highest point, and many of its slopes were extremely treacherous.

Most of the lower range was covered in a dense forest. Not even a single ray of sunlight peeked through the stormy clouds above the mountain. The howling sound of the wind created an ominous feel around the mountain along with the stormy weather. Hence, the name Stormveil mountain. The upper regions of the mountain frequently experienced heavy rain with violent mini cyclones.

There was no paved road to the mountain. The area around the mountain had a grayish color due to the storm clouds. The trees in the forest were frantically waving in the wind. 

"My lord" Michael sat on his sofa in the airship, looking at the mountain in the distance through the window when he heard Maxine.

"Gibson has reached the witch's island" 

After dealing with Vibius and the senators, Michael sent Gibson to the witch's island. They were stationed near the island as it was a short journey for Gibson to the witch's island.

Michael teleported the Senators to Maven before teleporting himself and Maxine back into the airship. Currently, he was on his way to see Stormveil mountain. He took a three hour meditation break which gave enough time for the senators to withdraw the soldiers from the Stormveil mountain.

"It looks freaky, my lord" Maxine bent her back to look through the window. The howling wind coupled with thunderclaps and lightning streaks in the sky would make anyone feel terrific or at least some dread in their core.

The tallest peak of the mountain could not be seen as it passed through the clouds in the sky. 

The tallest mountain on the earth would look like a boulder in front of Stormveil mountain. He could feel the airship begin to shake due to the stormy wind. As they got closer to the mountain, the louder the noise of heavy rain hitting the roof sounded.

Regardless that this was the middle of the day, it looked as though late evening because of the darkness. 

Boom! 

Boom! 

Boom! 

Lightning flashed in the dark sky and thunders shook the air. The airship soon started to shake violently. Maxine almost lost her balance. She quickly grabbed onto the sofa and steadied herself.

"My lord, we can't fly any further without risking a crash landing" Caius came running to them.

"Tell him to stop the airship and go back to Gisel" Michael stood up from his sofa,

"But my lord" Caius seemed reluctant to leave them in the Stormveil mountain. This mountain range was one of the most dangerous places in the Southern continent. Countless travelers and soldiers lost their lives in the terrain.

Still, they were not Lucifer and Maxine.

"While I'm away, use this to communicate with the other senators" With a flick of his wrist, he took an earpiece from his space ring. All the other senators were given an earpiece so they could talk to Caius. In addition to earpieces, they were also wearing Spycam pendants. Hence, Azazel could monitor them 24/7. If they tried to remove the pendant, the venom inside the Sydercam would be injected into them, taking their lives instantly.

Michael made his way towards the door as Maxine followed him behind.

He stood before the door before wrapping his arm around Maxine's slender waist.

He pulled her closer as he opened the door. The moment the door was opened, a powerful force of wind almost pushed them backward. Without wasting any time, he jumped out of the airship

"Wind blast" In the mid-air, he turned his back, sending a blast of wind to shut the door behind him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Maxine couldn't hold her screams. She hugged him tightly and closed her eyes. Her hair and long coat were fluttering violently but they soon got drenched in the rain.

"Lightning Dash"

He cast the spell to quicken his pace. No matter how many times he flew, he could never get used to the fact that he's actually flying like a superman.

The feeling of flying was magical. 

The lush green forest below them was covered by a hazy fog. The wind and rain brushed past his face so fast that it made him close his eyes occasionally.

As they got closer to the mountain, the sight of the gigantic mountain frightened him. They looked so miniature in front of the mountain. 

He noticed a few figures on the ground. Quickly he flew away before anyone could notice him, not that anyone could with the stormy weather.

"Land, thank god" When her feet touched the ground, she heaved a sigh of relief. 

"Get used to flying because" He let her go,

"Soon you will fly" For a moment, she looked frightened. Still, she nodded, controlling her fear of flying. 

They were currently standing on a narrow path between the forest and the mountain's footsteps. They noticed several figures in ragged clothes or naked walking out of the mountain. 

"He must be Hostus" He looked at the Spartan soldier who was overseeing the slaves. The soldier was staring at a parchment.

In his focus on the parchment, the Spartan almost failed to hear the footsteps of Michael and Maxine. One could not blame the spartan for not hearing the footsteps because the howling sound of the wind and the heavy rain would prevent anyone from hearing the sound of footsteps.

"Spartan Hostus" The spartan shuddered hearing the sudden voice,

"Who are you? You shouldn't be here" the spartan reached for his scimitar hanging on his waist,

"Calm down Spartan, Senator Vibius sent us" the spartan frowned. Despite the golden helmet with a huge red feather, Michael could still notice the frown on his face. Still, he couldn't see his face completely but he never cared about how the spartan looked under the helmet.

"I never heard anything about someone visiting the mountain from senator Vibius"

Hostus's hand was still on the hilt of his scimitar. Obviously, he didn't believe them.

"Senator gave us this" Michael slowly put his hand inside his coat pocket as the Spartan stared at him without batting an eye.

"See" 

When Hostus saw Michael taking out the Crystal, he was stunned.

"We don't have much time to play around Spartan. Gisel's spartan army is on its way here."

Michael handled situations like this before back on earth. When the opposite person was in doubt, rush them, giving them no time to think. Until he learned as much as he could from Hostus about the mining operation, he didn't want to kill him. That was the reason Hostus was still alive.

"What? Spartan army? Shit"

"You can mumble later Spartan. Now we have a job to do. Tell me you finished evacuating the slaves as your order said you to"

The parchment in Hostus's hand contained signed letters of the senators Michael spared. It was a pity he didn't get a signed letter from Vibius before killing him. Since he did not need Vibius for much, he didn't bother.

Maxine thought the sole reason for Vibius's death was his sins. However, that was only one of the reasons. The other reason was Vibius's loyalty level. When the system prompted him whether he wanted Vibius as his subordinate or not, Vibius's loyalty level was at 0.2%. Vibius had everything and craved too much power. Raising his loyalty would be a headache and his gut feeling told him to kill Vibius because Vibius had gone too far with his killings of innocents and slaves.

There was no way Michael would make such a murderous psycho his subordinate.

"Yes, those are the last of them. The order said I have to send them to the Gisel border. What if those slaves tried to escape?" Hostus asked as Michael made his way to the mine entrance.

"Don't bother, we have bigger things to worry about. Show me the mining site inside" 

Spartan Hostus fastened his steps to walk forward. As they walked deeper into the mine, the darker it became. Only a few torches hanging on the wall were their light source.

"Anything I should know before those assholes come here to check the place" 

"What assholes my lord?" Hostus addressed him as my lord. Coupled with the fact his attitude, the fact that he has the crystal indicated the youngster was someone from a high place, perhaps a noble related to Vibius.

"There is a group of Guardians coming. Peace talk or some shit like that. We need to make sure they do not find out about the existence of these crystals"

Michael was making stuff up as he walked. 

"Guardians?" Hostus was stunned,

"Nothing major my lord. Just a few slaves died inside. I cleaned up their bodies, so no problem"

Michael frowned but didnt stop walking deeper into the mine.

"What's the cause of death?" He asked the Spartan,

For a few seconds, Hostus remained silent.

"You didn't bother to check, did you?" He sighed as the spartan scratched the back of his helmet.

Eventually, after walking for almost half an hour, they started to see a few glimmers of bluish light deeper into the mine. 

Soon the narrow path opened up into a large spacious area where they saw crystals in the walls, ground, and above them. Hundreds of people could occupy the area, it was enormous. He could see the crystal in various sizes. On the other side of the area, he noticed a narrow opening as well as tools such as hammers, shovels, crowbars, and large picks.

"Where does that lead to?" Michael pointed at the narrow opening and asked Hostus,

"Deeper into the mountain my lord. Those slaves died caving the pathway"

"Why did they die? What's on the other side?"

Michael had a bad feeling in his gut. With utmost caution, he made his way to the narrow path through the rocky ground.
