The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 197 Chapter 197 – Reunion

As he reappeared in the Arena, everyone around him started to glare at him as if he had done something wrong.

However, Aiden had obviously done nothing of the sort, he had simply answered everything on that little screen in that empty room.

“Now that everyone is here, I think it’s time to leave this dimension of ours and go back to the real world!” exclaimed excitedly Thorin.

Aiden found it weird that the real world was now Nova, but he didn’t comment on it as he only thought a little about Earth in general.

Then, after Thorin uttered that everyone could exit this place, the participants that were around Aiden started to disappear one after another.

However, as Aiden was about to disappear he felt two hands grab him on his shoulders.

One of those hands owners was Sylas Nightshade and the other one which was a lot more feminine came from Melinda Emberbane.

“Where are you going like that? We still need to figure out our little problem,” said Sylas, still mad with the Reaper and what he had done to his son.

However, before Aiden answered, Melinda interfered.

“Sylas, let the boy go. We’ll talk about what we’ll do later,” said Melinda, still with an easy-going smile on her face.

Sylas could only clench his fists as he couldn’t do anything to force Aiden to stay here.

Then, both Lucius and Sylas disappeared and left both Melinda and Aiden alone in the middle of the Arena.

In fact, when Aiden started to glance around, he noticed that there was almost no one left in the Arena and in the stands.

There were only Emma, Olivia, Logan, Maelis, Gerald, and Lilia in those stands.

‘Well, I guess now would be the best time to reveal my face to all of them,’ thought Aiden as there was no one else around.

Aiden seeing them in the stands made a sign to tell them to come and see him.

“So, are you finally going to show that face of yours?” asked Melinda, who had also noticed that they were completely alone in this place.

Aiden only nodded as he waited for everyone to reach him.

While everyone was trying to come down to the stage, two people in particular seemed to be arguing.

“Let go, it’s me that going to be first.”

“No, it’s going to be me.”

Those two people were obviously Emma and Olivia who were still arguing on the one who would obtain Aiden first.

However, it wasn’t them who reached the stage first, it was both Maelis and Gerald who were obviously stronger than the rest of them who landed on the stage first.

“Congrats on your win, I doubted you a little but I guess I shouldn’t have,” said Gerald.

He had doubted Aiden since he hadn’t known about him a lot.

Aiden in response to this flashed a smile, however, he still had his mask so it didn’t show.

“Thanks, it feels good winning.”

Then, Maelis who was watching not too far away from them, still hadn’t said anything only glaring at him.

“So, you’re leaving the Everheart Family, huh?” she said, clearly a little sour about that matter.

Aiden wasn’t sure how to respond as he could that she was clearly not happy about that matter at all.

“Um, I guess I am. Sorry,” said Aiden, as he couldn’t find the right words to apologize.

Nonetheless, he knew that it was for the best.

“Well, no need to apologize I get it, you know joining a founding family is not an opportunity that you can often have.”

Aiden hearing this was somewhat reassured that Maelis wasn’t too mad about that whole thing. However, he could only pray that she wouldn’t be mad when Melinda asked Emma to join her family too.

Aiden wasn’t sure if Emma would follow him, but he still had hope.

Then, as the two of them were about to continue their conversation, someone else reached them and it was Lilia.

It seemed that the two girls really weren’t the fastest and Logan, well Logan was taking his time, slowly walking down toward the stage.

“Congrats on winning! You didn’t have to face Lucius in the end, huh,” she said as she remembered telling all sorts of things to beat Lucius.

Maelis who had never seen that person before had literal question marks in her eyes. In fact, even Melinda was wondering how the Reaper had gotten to know someone from the Nightshades.

“Oh, well I guess I didn’t have to,” replied Aiden as he didn’t understand why she hadn’t caught him beating Lucius and all of that in the trial.

It was weird that she hadn’t realized that this was the cause of Sylas acting so aggressively against Aiden.

Then, as Aiden started to feel glares on his back, he slowly turned his head and saw two crazy girls glaring at him.

‘Why are they looking at me like that?’ he thought, not sure why Emma and Olivia were furious.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you would leave the Everheart family?” shouted both Olivia and Emma.

Aiden wasn’t sure why Olivia was frustrated about such a thing, but he didn’t question it too much.

“Um, sorry I guess,” replied Aiden, not sure how to respond to those crazy girls.

“You better be!” the two of them responded at the same time.

Then, Melinda who had been watching this scene, interjected in the conversation.

“Um, um, it’s not that I want to interrupt, but could you guys do that reunion later,” asked Melinda as she started to get impatient, she wanted to see what the Reaper looked like. 𝑛𝞸𝑣𝑒𝓁𝔫𝑬xt.𝓒𝑜𝑀

She also wanted to know about his name as she still hadn’t learned anything about it.

“Right, right, sorry,” said Olivia, shutting her mouth which was a rare occasion.

“So, I guess it’s time for me to show you what I look like, huh?” mumbled Aiden, still hesitating over removing his mask.
