The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 237 237 - Swoosh



Arriving at the top of one of the two mountains that surrounded him, Aiden started to look around, asking himself why he needed to come here for the third challenge.

Was there something about this place which was different?

‘Does it have monsters?’ thought Aiden, as the atmosphere seemed quite fitting for it.

However, the more that he started to look around, the more he noticed that there was nothing around him.

No beasts, no animals, and obviously no monsters since he wasn’t in the Otherworld.

Then, as Aiden was about to go and explore what was around him, he reminded himself that he needed to wait for the instructor of the third challenge which was running late.

‘I guess I really was too fast at clearing those challenges, even if I thought that I was slow,’ thought Aiden, still being critical of his performances, it was one of his habits after all.

He constantly needed to make sure that he was at his peak and most of the time he wasn’t since he needed to work harder and harder.

*Swoosh*

That was the sound of the wind which seemed to have moved because of something that had just moved in high speed.

Aiden had obviously felt this change as he turned around looking at what it was.𝐧𝗈𝓋𝑒𝑳𝔫𝖾xt.𝗰𝒪𝐌

However, when he turned his head, there was absolutely nothing behind him.

It seemed that the thing which had just passed behind him at high speed wasn’t anywhere to be seen.

Nonetheless, Aiden didn’t lose his focus as he expected something to try and go behind him once again.

*Swoosh*

Then, as Aiden thought that something would go behind him once again, it actually happened as the same noise as earlier was heard.

However, there was a big difference this time as Aiden expected it, he was on the alert making sure to feel every single change to the wind and the environment behind him.

That’s why he put his hand behind him as soon as he heard that noise, grabbing something as he closed his hand.

“Oh, you caught me already? Impressive,” said the high-speed thing that had been going behind him.

Hearing a voice, Aiden slowly started to turn toward it wondering if his guess was right.

He thought that this man was the third challenge instructor since that would make the most sense to be completely honest.

“I guess Evelynn and Dan didn’t lie about your potential, I thought that I could play with you the entire day, but it seems that I underestimated you,” said the high-moving person.

‘Well, I guess I was right,’ thought Aiden when he heard him talk about Evelynn and Dan who were those who had taken care of the first and second challenges.

“Weird I was going really fast, I didn’t think that you would be able to grab me. Young man, how did you achieve this so fast?” questioned the man, who was currently being held by Aiden.I think you should take a look at

‘How I did it, huh?’ thought Aiden, unsure of how he thought of grabbing what was behind him without even looking. 

“To be honest, it might sound ridiculous, but I just followed my instinct,” uttered Aiden as he had no other possible reason.

“Your instinct, huh? Well, that’s even more impressive, I guess you weren’t the Inter Family Tournament winner for nothing. You really are the most impressive young man that I have seen yet,” said the man, before mumbling something with an extremely low tone.

“Even if you are the first one that I saw in literal years.”

Then, before Aiden could ask what he had just mumbled, the man in front of him continued to look at him clearly about to say something else.

“Alright, what do you think this challenge will be?” asked the man, who was able to move really fast.

To be completely honest, Aiden had absolutely no idea of what he would have to do.

However, noticing that the man in front of him had been able to move away from his grasp without even noticing it, Aiden had an idea.

‘Maybe it’s about movements?’ he thought, knowing that he would make a ton of sense.

Aiden in his entire life had only practiced one sort of movement technique and it had been [Shadow Steps], but seeing how fast that man had been able to move. Aiden had to admit that maybe he wasn’t using the most effective movement technique.

However, even if [Shadow Steps] wasn’t the fastest movement technique, it was the most silent one as Aiden literally couldn’t make noise when walking even if he wanted to, his passive skill restricted it.

But then he had an idea.

‘What if I combine both [Shadow Steps] with whatever he’s using?’ 

Just thinking about it, Aiden had a big smile on his face since it would make him stronger and on the same occasion freer.

He knew that being free wasn’t the same thing as being the strongest, but he had to admit that being stronger would help him be freer, there was literally no doubt about it.

“I don’t know, is it related to that cliff?” asked Aiden, as he pointed to that big ass crevice.

Aiden knew that the challenge had to be related to movement since the man had been expecting to play with him for the entire day, so that was probably meant as a hint to figure out the goal of this challenge.

And looking at this crevice, Aiden had a small idea of what the challenge would be.

“Hm, you really have a good instinct,” muttered the man as he was seemingly about to explain what the third challenge would consist of.

“You see, the third challenge will be simple, well not really but whatever,” said the man as he took a small break.

After a couple of seconds of silence, he once again continued explaining the challenge.

“You see that big gap that you pointed at earlier, well the challenge is simple, you’ll have to jump over it without flying of course,” said the man while winking, making it known that he knew about Aiden’s ability.
