Chapter 12 - CHAPTER 12: Completing the mission

Leon entered the tent abruptly as he spotted a group of five men, each of them sitting in a circle playing cards.

"Hey! Who are you" one of the guys said as it drew the attention of the rest and glance towards the masked figure.

Before one of them could stand up the masked figure appears in front of him stabbing his neck as blood flowed relentlessly before slumping down dead, the others widened their eyes in shock.

"You bastard I will kill you" one of the gang said as he brought out his sword aiming to cut Leon the others followed suit.

[Skill Aura l activated]

Leon activated his skill as the man froze in shock and fear before Leon cut off his head,he then turned around dodging an attack from one of the men as Leon slash his dagger upward cutting off the man's arm.

The man held his arm as he intended to scream in pain but before he could Leon cuts open his throat, Leon saw one of the two gangs remaining running to grab a walkie-talkie at the corner of his eyes to call for help..... Leon then threw his dagger with all his might towards the man as it pierced through his head killing him on the spot.

The last man dashes towards Leon after seeing him throwing his weapon away as he thought Leon became weaponless but just as he brandished his blade towards Leon's head he saw Leon stretching his arm towards his head but he didn't think much of it thinking that Leon was defenseless against his attack but just then.

'SLASH'

A sword pierce his neck out of nowhere killing him with an expression of shock still written on his face.

Leon was exited as he realizes how useful being able to summon his weapons are as it will be useful during combat.

Leon returned his sword back inside his inventory as he picked up his dagger stucked at the running man he killed, he pulls it out forcefully making a squishy sound... Leon opened up the tent to check outside he then sat down inside to check his notification.

After seeing his stats Leon was readily about to distribute his stats but then he decided to wait a bit since he knew he's still going to level up some more after completing his mission.

Leon Left the tent and went towards the second tent, the total amount of tents in the field is about ten then with the building they all seems to be protecting.

Leon spotted two wandering men and he quickly took care of them and gained extra two exp.

Leon has wiped out two tents as he entered his fourth one before he could he heard some commotion going on inside,he could hear the begging of ladies and yelling of the men...he could also hear the sound of beating and slapping coupled with the sobbing of the ladies.

Leon entered the tent abruptly as what he saw makes him angry slightly,he saw five men pinning down five young women down all in the age of twenty to twenty five years,they are also additional five women tied up in the corner of the tent with tears streaming down their faces.

Each of the men stripped the women naked leaving only their underwear remaining,all the women has cuts all over their bodies as slight blood could be seen streaming down....they each have pale faces due to stress and lack of sleep.

Each of the men are naked leaving only their boxers still hanging slightly, one of the men spotted Leon.

Hey! What do you want and what are you doing here he said as all the attention of the people in the tent fell on Leon but then suddenly a overwhelming aura pressed down on them as a pair of blood red eyes stared at each of them before suddenly.

The first man's head flew off his neck,the second was about to stand up but a dagger pierce his chest killing him, the rest of the men stood up and ran towards their weapon and attacked Leon one of them seems to be a peak level black grade as he activated his abilities which is a rock like body making him extremely strong.

Leon realizes that upon activating his aura skill it becomes stronger with his emotions, the more angry he is the more stronger it becomes.... to confirm his suspicion a notification popped up before him.

[Anger from host detected....+20 points extra from the Aura skill]

Leon glanced towards the rest of the men as his eyes glowed fiercely inside the tent sending shivers down the spine of everyone in the tent.

Leon activated wind steps as his speed together with the boost from Aura skill triples instantly, he vanished from his spot before stabing the nearest man at his stomach...he then pulled the dagger out and stabbing him at his chest twice.

Both the remaining men attacked Leon from both sides as he swiftly dodges their attack before dashing towards the weakest of the two, the man swing down his spear aiming to finish Leon in a single blow as a golden glow envelope the spear.

Leon sidestep before using his dagger to direct the man's attack directory before slashing his arms making him drop his weapon and then at that moment Leon slash the man's neck deeply killing him instantly.

The last man who has a solid rock body jumped towards Leon punch towards him with immense speed.

Leon dodges left and right as he avoid the man's attack before slashing his neck but his dagger couldn't pierce through his skin, the man widened his smile into a grin as he mutters you can't pierce my skin with that dagger of yours, unfortunately for you I will kill you and bath in your blood.

Leon didn't respond as he jumped back and kept his dagger before going into a boxing stance.

The man seeing this laughed mockingly as he said do you really think you can kill me by fighting me head-on with your fist you are very cocky for a beginner level black grade.

Leon dashes towards the man as he raised his fist into a punch intending to punch the man's stomach, the man upon seeing this grins and said come I will take your attack head-on.

Leon smiles slightly under his mask as he activated brass punch max and punched the man with all his strength at his stomach.

'BAM'

The man coughed up blood in shock as he was sent flying crashing into the tent before bouncing back on the ground,he stared at Leon in surprise before saying how did you do it.. I shouldn't have been injured by you.

Leon shrugged slightly before punching his head and then his head burst like a watermelon spraying blood and brain matter all over the tent.

[+10 Exp]

[Leveled up]

[24/50 criminals killed]

Leon turned around facing the ladies who are shaking uncontrollably in fear one of them manages to say "please don't kill us" as tears falls down her cheek.

"I won't hurt you I promise" Leon said as he picked up the naked girls clothes and gave it to them and then went on to cut off the rope tying the remaining five girls up.

After the ladies dressed up Leon told them to follow him silently as he led them to an empty tent with no signs of blood present, Leon himself settled down to rest as he's utterly exhausted from using his skills for that long.

The rest of the men at peak level black grade became suspicious as he saw few men around and even some tents are silent, one of the men sent some middle level black grade to check the surroundings.... after being gone for twenty minutes the men they sent didn't return back making them more suspicious as they then decided to ring the alarm sound.

Leon was resting slightly when he spotted a group of four middle level black grade men scouting each tent, Leon didn't waste any time before taking out each of them.

Twenty minutes after the group of people came Leon was about to stand up to continue his killing when suddenly he heard a alarm sound.

'PAAAAN'

'PAAAAN'

'PAAAAN'

Leon immediately knew that his cover has been blown he then told the girls to hide somewhere as he will be back.... each of them nodded their head before Leon stepped out of the tent intending to fight them head-on.

•••••••

Leon laid on the ground as he was breathing heavily and around him laid bodies belonging to the criminals which they all died gruesomely, some of them headless, some having severed limbs and stab wounds, while some having a deep cut at their chest.

Leon was injured himself as he's missing an arm,a large open wound at his stomach oozing blood,burnt and broken limbs with one of his eyes missing.... Leon underestimated the peak level black grade criminals completely as they are extremely strong but thankfully he manages to defeat each one of them.

Leon opened the system shop and purchase an high level healing potion with one thousand system points as it appears in his hands before gulping down everything in the bottle.

Leon's missing arm regenerated with frightening speed as the wound on his belly closed up and his missing eyes regenerated too.

Leon was completely healed up without a single scratch,he looked perfectly fine like he hasn't been in a difficult battle...if not for his bloodied body nobody would have believed he was in a life threatening state.

He sat up as he appreciates the usefulness of the system shop and it's extremely rare healing potion, Leon decided to check his notification.

[System evolving....0%....20%....30%.....60%.....80%.....100%]

Leon was extremely surprised as he checked out the new information but he didn't have time to check any of them out.

Leon checked out the building and he found lots of silver coins worth a hundred thousand silver coins kept in a huge coin bag, Leon was shocked as he grins slightly before picking up the bag....he checked the rest of the building but only found some weird crystals and some black pills.

Leon fortunately found one of the men tied up and bloodied,he seems to be a traitor thus prompting his condition.

Leon rescued the rest of the girls and took them to the exterminator organization branch together with the tied up man, Leon told them what he found except from the bag of silver coins which he hid in a nearby bush and after he confirmed his identity he got his payment which is five thousand silver coins.

Leon was extremely happy as he just got rich overnight,he took the bag and placed it inside his system inventory before going back to the hotel..... after arriving Leon decided to check his reward.
