Hitman with a Badass System

Chapter 468 Live feed from Alpha Guardian’s Warship

　　”You sleep well human, I will see you later” Said Gaya, gently placing a soft kiss on Michael’s forehead. The fifteen minutes flew by in a blink of an eye. She hated to leave him yet she had no choice. ‘When we are gonna leave this place?’ That was the question running in her mind for some time. Because of her job and his role as a student, they couldn’t spend time with each other as they used to.

Eight months were gone, and ten months remained until he could graduate and leave this place for good. 

”I love you,” Michael said before she could stand up and leave,

”I love you too” she whispered into his ears. Then, she left the room, but not without ruffling his hair playfully,

Almost three hours later, Michael opened his eyes. There was still exhaustion in his eyes. When he woke up, he noticed Elidyr was attaching a parchment to the wall. Then, he assessed the system for a second to look at the time. It was four-thirty. Fortunately, he had no classes for the day so he had some free time to spare.

”How is it going?” Michael rubbed his eyes to adjust his sensor to the light,

”You’re awake” Elidyr exclaimed as he continued to draw some symbols on the parchment in front of him. They had their curtains closed so the room remained always gloomier and dark. Right at the moment however, the room was getting brighter and brighter. In addition, there was also a low-pitched whistling sound emanating from the parchment.

Michael’s sleepiness quickly disappeared as he strolled toward Elidyr.

”Alas, I finished it” Elidyr proudly exclaimed looking at the purple rune on the parchment. For Michael, the rune resembled the symbol of Gemini. Only the symbol before him was letting out a  bright purple glow.

”This part can and will absorb the arch energy from the crystals and send it to the mortar” Elidyr ran his finger on the crescent shape top part of the symbol. Then he moved his finger to the bottom of the symbol,

”The auto-targeting using heat signatures, this part is responsible for that. All we need now is to build the device and test it out on a target”

He willed the system to take out a Spycam from the system storage. The next second, the Spyder materialized on his palm. He pointed at the Spyder’s eyes to the wall,

”Azazel, are you getting this?” He connected his ear piece with Azazel,

”Yes my lord. Should I give this recording to Master Jonah?” 

Every time Michael wanted to transfer the blueprint from Akilan to the outside world, he would use the Spyder to record the contents which could be seen and recorded by Azazel. The Demon butler would hand over the recording to Jonah. He was responsible for drawing the blueprints on parchment and sending them to whoever Michael asked him to. 

Communication between him and Azazel remained undetected by Mazeroth security arrays. However, the system warned him that with its current level, it’s unable to send items such as parchments, runes, and herbs from Mazeroth to the outside world.

Luckily for Michael, Jonah proved to be great at replicating blueprints.

”What are you gonna do about the rune? He won’t be able to copy this” asked Elidyr,

”We need to wait until after the talent exhibition” Michael nonchalantly said,

”You mean the break?”

”Yeah. At that time, we can get out of here and finish the mortar”

While he was learning from Lane, Michael heard that the students will get a one-month holiday. Of course, Lane seemed against the idea of giving the students a break. His exact words were ‘they are already buffoons with acorn-sized brains. Breaks will only reduce the size of their brain further’

Fortunately, Lane was not responsible for the holidays, it was up to Headmistress Kayla and she saw no reason not to give them a break.

Michael planned to utilize this break to get out of Akilan Realm and see how things are outside.

”Lord Lucifer” Michael’s train of thoughts was interrupted by Azazel’s voice in his head,

”You should take a look at this live feed” Michael was able to sense the acute amusement in Azazel’s voice. 

The Demon butler rarely showed any feelings other than being calm and collected. Therefore, when Michael sensed the change in his voice, he was more than curious. He quickly waved his hand as a 36inch dark mirror appeared before Elidyr and him. The mirror hovered over to the wall and attached itself to the wall.

*******************************

The interior of the war room in Alpha Guardian’s airship was rather simple. The circular room had one door on the east side, a large round stone table in the center, and above the stone table was a chandelier to light the table below. One could count eleven stone chairs around the table. At the moment, a golden-haired elf and two humans dressed in red metal armor with golden engravings occupied the chairs. The two soldiers looked pale. They almost looked as though they had just come out of the shower. They couldn’t help sweating uncontrollably, mainly due to the fear of what was going to happen to them when the Alpha Guardian returned from the headquarters.

The golden-haired elf was Tiriana, the best friend and the second in command to the Alpha Guardian of hunter Guardians. The trio had no clue that another entity is in the room and transmitting everything they do and talking to the Dark Forest. The battle of Hades concluded when the Alpha guardians appeared with her soldiers. They took all the ninjas sent to attack everyone in the Hades. Michael wanted to kill many and take a few as prisoners so he could interrogate them to find out who sent them in the first place. His plan was rudely interrupted by the Alpha guardians. Although he failed to take the ninjas prisoners, he left a Spyder on each of the survivors.

The Alpha guardian beamed up everyone to her warship. Without her knowing, the Spyders infiltrated every corner of the warship and sent Azazel a live feed ever since.

”What do you mean you lost them?!” Tiriana slammed the stone table in anger,

”My lady, we found this in the safe house” the soldier who had a tall stature, silver hair, and blue eyes placed a metal card on the table. He then rotated the table as the card reached Tiriana.

Her vengeful eyes finally moved from the soldiers to the black card in front of her. She took the card, it didn’t feel heavy or anything. There was nothing on the card except the letter ‘D’ was embossed in crimson red.

The card immediately reminded her of Lucifer but then, he always used the letter ‘L’, not ‘D’. Still, she couldn’t dismiss the troubling thought that Lucifer may have captured someone far more important to them,

”Magnior” Tiria cast a spell as a bright light enveloped the card. The light then slowly hovered over to the air above the table, forming the enhanced image of the card.

The image took the form of a holograph. The two soldiers stared at the card while Tiriana pointed her finger at the card, drawing a few symbols in the air. As soon as she stopped drawing the symbols in the air, a red smudge that resemble a fingerprint appeared on the card, just beside the letter ‘D’

”That’s blood” Tiriana’s brows creased,

”But we didn’t see any signs of battle or blood stains in the safe house?” the other soldier who wore the same armor but had golden hair, and an oval face responded to Tiriana’s words with a mix of shock, doubt, and confusion,

”Were you able to locate the handler or any of the team member’s orb?” Tirian asked while still looking at the blood smudge on the card,

”We tried but to no avail, my lady. All of their communications orbs are offline” the silver-haired soldier answered. Following his answer, Tiria continued to draw some symbols in the air. Unlike before, nothing changed.

”This is serious, we must find her” The anger in her eyes was replaced by concern,

”I need everything you have on her target on my table within the next hour, got it?” 

The soldiers stomped the ground, saluting her.

”Yes my lady” they left the room leaving the sound of heavy thuds and Tiriana. For the next hour, she analyzed the card using every rune and spell she had in her arsenal. Yet, she found nothing.No clue, no hint, no marks of any kind to locate whoever left the card.

”I have to tell Tanulia” She mumbled under her breath. 

Tanulia was known to Michael as the Alpha Guardian elf who he met in Hades. Azazel had never seen Tanulia in the warship after she brought the ninjas. According to the guardians he eavesdropped on, Tanulia left for the Guardian Guild Headquarters in Awor for some important meeting with the other Alpha Guardians.

An hour later, the two soldiers came into the room carrying a small crate containing numerous parchments,

”This is all the information about the operation Desert Eagle, my lady”

The silver hair soldier placed the crate on the table, took the parchment out of it one by one, placed it on the table, and rotated the table once again.

”Leave” Tirian uttered an order. Usually, her voice would have sounded gentle and melodious, now, however, it sounded stern and intimidating.

”Yes my lady” the soldiers lingered no longer as they quickly rushed out of the room before they suffered the wrath of Tiriana.

After the soldiers left the room, she opened the parchments one by one,

”Magnior” every time she opened a parchment, she cast the spell. Then, the bright light enveloped the parchment before forming an enlarged holographic image of the parchment in the air above the table.

Each holographic image hovering in the air contained a drawing of either a man or a woman. Michael who was witnessing the scene through the Spyder immediately recognized not one but two,

”That’s Peyton” He saw Peyton in the mirror before him. Then he noticed another familiar face. Although she too had blonde hair like Peyton, she was far more prettier than Peyton,

”Sabrina Winston’
