The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

THE maid walked down, pushing the trolley.  Because it was on the stairs and not on a smooth surface, the trolley's journey down was a bit rough.  But the maid seemed to not mind.  A minute later, they finally reached the ground.

The basement was big, probably as big as the first floor of the manor.  It was dimly lit by the lamps attachmed to the wall.  But a part of the basement was covered with shadows, probably the lamps in that part were not lit.  That's why Luo Yan couldn't see what's there.  Of course, the maid pushed the trolley on that part.

Luo Yan could see some silver threads the more they walked towards the shadowed part of the basement.  When the maid stopped, a raspy voice spoke.

"You're late."

Luo Yan squinted his eyes to see who just spoke.  As his eyes got used to the darkness, the outline of the person in front started to become clearer.  Once he saw it clearly, he couldn't help but stepped back.  Because in front of them was not a person but some kind of monster.

The upper body of the monster was the same as that of a human female.  Even her face was similar to a human.  But once you saw her lower body, you wouldn't think of her as anything but a monster.  From her waist down, it was like that of a big black spider's.  From the bulbous abdomen to the eight legs, she's like a half-human, half-spider hybrid.

So, was this the monster that took over the manor and became its master?  Obviously, she only arrived here two months ago.  If not, then the disappearance of those girls would have happened long ago.  How did she come here?  Could it be...?

The maid pushed the trolley in front of the woman-spider monster.  Then suddenly, the maid collapsed and fell on the basement floor.  The monster pointed at the maid and a silver spider thread came out of her finger.  It attached itself on the maid's nape.  When the monster pulled it, a small spider was attached at the end of the thread.

"Useless thing," the monster said before crushing the small spider using her hand.  Then on the palm of her other hand, another small spider appeared.  "You, make sure you won't be late in bringing my food."

She threw the spider and it crawled towards the maid.

So, this woman-spider was the one controlling the maid.  With that, it's now safe to assume that this monster was now the real master of this manor.

Then, it's now time for him to kill.

Since this was a task for a class application, this monster's level would definitely not exceed 15.  But that would also mean that he wouldn't be able to kill it with one single stroke.  Because they were at the same level.  There were still seven minutes left before the effect of his Invisibility Cloak wore off.  He could still use his Shadow Walk skill.  But he probably wouldn't need to use it.  He's confident he could kill her within that seven minutes time range. 

Luo Yan took out a large purple potion and a large yellow potion.  This potions could cause sleep and paralysis on its intended target for 10 seconds.  Because this spider monster could still be considered as a relatively low level monster, these two potions could exert its full effect on it.  But if it had a high level, then that would be a different matter.

He didn't close his Items Tab, so he could immediately took out the two potions once the effect wore off.

Before the woman-spider monster started eating, Luo Yan already threw a purple potion at her, then he followed it with a yellow potion.  The monster immediately fell on the floor.  He didn't start attacking her, instead he walked towards the maid and took out the small spider at the back of her neck.  He crushed it and then turned towards the monster.

He took out his dagger and walked closer to the monster.  Then he thrust the dagger on her chest.  But she didn't disappear, which meant that that wasn't enough to kill her.  The 10 seconds would be up, so he threw another purple and yellow potion to the monster.

This time, Luo Yan went for the head.  With one slash, he'd only reached a third of her neck.  As expected, he wouldn't be able to do it in one move.  So he just slashed and slashed.  When there's only a little muscle attaching the head to the neck, the two potions would soon lost its effect.  This time Luo Yan didn't bother to use them again.  

The monster suddenly opened her eyes.  But before she could make any other noise, he already made another slash.  Severing the head completely.  And then the body and the head slowly disintegrated.

As soon as it did, the notification bell sounded.

----------

Luo Jin avoided the trunk of the tree flying at him.  But when he landed, the ground he was standing on suddenly opened.  His small body quickly moved and reached for the edge of the opened ground before he could fall.  He heard hissing sounds from below.  He looked down and saw a nest of snakes.  

[This shitty task--!]

He took a deep, calming breathe and pushed his body upwards.  When he got out, he immediately raised the gun he was holding.  He pointed it towards the target and then pressed the trigger.  It barely entered the outer ring of the target circle.  

But Luo Jin didn't care.  He's so tired and uncomfortable, he just wanted this task to end.

The notification bell sounded.
