Hitman with a Badass System-Chapter 6: The first subordinate

"Three more"

Micheal told himself and stealthily moved towards the remaining snakes while the girl was pretty stunned to see him and the grin he walked past her sent a cold chill running through her spine.

He slowly made his way to the three snakes and crouched behind the snake who was peacefully sleeping in the middle without any idea of the threat behind him.

"Diddle, diddle we are so little"

The moment he said it, he stabbed the snakes one by one lightning-fast.

Each of his stabs was precise and deep as the ding sounds confirmed the kills.

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body refining stage, level 7 cultivator. The reward is 5000 experience points as well as 250 Badass points]

[Ding! Congrats to the host for killing a Body refining stage, level 7 cultivator. The reward is 5000 experience points as well as 250 Badass points]

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up. The current stage is Foundation Level 2]

The girl's eyes widened even further when she saw him break through to the next level instantly after killing them.

But before talking to her, he opened the system

"Hey system, can you heal and make her cultivate again? "

"Yes, but the target must be the host's subordinate and the required badass points is 3000 "

"Did you think I'm going to heal someone out of the goodness of my heart? Let's see if she can be any help to us"

He closed the system and slowly made his way towards the girl while playing with the knife in his hand.

"Hi there"

He waved and crouched before her

"Are you going to scream if I cut your rope?"

The girl shook her head as he smiled

"Good"

"(cough) (cough) (cough)"

She coughed and took a few deep breaths

"Who the f**k are you? Where the f**k did you come from? Come on, cut these ropes human"

He was a little surprised by the words coming out of her mouth and she sounded so arrogant and prideful.

"Ooh, feisty"

"I order you lowly human, cut the ropes now"

"Or what?"

He asked tilting his head

"Didn't they cripple you? I don't know how powerful you were but now, you're nothing but a crippled serpent"

"How dare"

She became furious but before she could finish her sentence, she felt the cold blade against her throat

"Come one, finish what you were going to say"

She swallowed and didnt utter a word

"What cat got your tongue?"

"What...what do you want, human?"

Since she was a predator herself, she knew a predator when she saw one and the human before her radiated an aura of an apex predator.

"Now we are talking"

Micheal took back the knife and smiled

"Since it's obvious that you're in a mess and I require some help from a native of this land, why don't we help each other?"

"Humph"

The girl snickered

"If you can kill a core strengthening cultivator, I will gladly help you, but look at you, you are just at a foundation level, that bitch's maid is stronger than you"

"I'm not planning to be at foundation level for a long time and even if I can kill that bitch"

He air quoted the word bitch and continued

"I won't do it for free but what I am offering to you is, if you accept to be my subordinate, I can heal your crippled cultivation when I get stronger"

She was taken back by surprise for a moment but in a few seconds, she started to laugh like a maniac

"You think I fall for that crap, no one can heal a crippled cultivation human"

There was a slight sadness mixed in her voice when she said.

Hearing her, he opened up the system

"Hey system, can you have anything that could make her believe that I can heal her?"

A small white pill appeared in front of him

"Basic tier revitalizing pill, the pill can partially heal the cultivation crippleness of the target"

"How much?"

He knew that the system wouldn't give this pill for free as he needed to buy this using his badass points

"50 badass points, if host buy a hundred pill bottle, the system can make an offer of 4000 points"

"Jeez, you sound like a cheap agent, give me one"

He growled and bought a pill from the system shop.

"Crap huh?"

The girl saw a white pill appearing in his hand

"What is tha"

Before she could ask, he put the pill into her mouth and forced her to swallow the pill.

And just as she was struggling, her surge of energy appeared in her body and her eyes widened in shock

"I can… I can feel the Arch energy again"

A wide grin appeared on her face but her grin froze on her face when the effects disappeared.

"What the miraculous pill did you give me? Do you have more? Come one give it to me? GIVE IT TO ME!"

She moved closer, too close that he could even smell a tint of jasmine scent coming out of her hair.

"Whoa, easy there tiger, it's only a sample, agree to be my subordinate and help me get stronger, then I will give you more"

"What do you mean by a subordinate? I'd rather be dead than be someone's slave"

Her face turned very serious as he shook his head

"Who said anything about being a slave? You just be my assistant, do you know what an assistant is?"

She still seemed unconvinced as he stood up

"Alright your loss, its seems you don't want to revenge, I'm sure that someone will come looking for you soon, feel free to tell them what happened here"

He said and took a step forward to leave

"Hey! Wait"

He halted his step when he heard her shout and turned back

"I can accept to be your subordinate but I won't sign any contract"

"System, does she need to sign a contract to be subordinate?���

"No, the system only needs to say yes to be the host's subordinate willingly"

She didn't know why he was suddenly smiling

"No contract, just say the word yes, are you willing to be my subordinate?"

She was snickering inside planning to rob him in his sleep but didnt show her true feeling on her face.

"Yes, I am willing to be your subordinate"

"Does the host wish to accept Gaya as a subordinate?"

"Gaya? Nice name, yes I do system, yes I do"

In a few seconds, Gaya's figure appeared before him alongside her stats which were nothing but zero at the moment due to her current state.

But what stat surprised him was the loyalty stat

Subordinate: Gaya

Cultivation Level: None

Race: Demi human-Naga Race

Current Skills: None

Status: Currently crippled

Loyalty towards the host: 0

"Why am I not surprised?"

And just as he was looking at her stats, a new window popped up

"Does the host wish to eliminate or punish the subordinate in case they try to harm the host?"

"Hmm, for the moment, set it to punish, I think I'll see her getting punished very soon "

With a smile, he exited the system and went to cut her ropes

"Do you know the way to the nearest village or town?"

He asked while slashing the ropes

"Yeah, if we travel to the north, we'll reach the port town"

She pulled herself up after he cut her ropes

"Alright, now take anything that fetches us some coins"

"You want me to loot the corpses?"

She frowned and looked disgusted

"Do you have any coins?"

"No"

"Then yes, I want you to loot the corpse, come on move your ass girl"

She furiously rolled her eyes and deeply exhaled

"I'll make this bastard pay for this, just wait, you lowly human"

She thought to herself and walked towards the dead snakes to take their poison core which could be sold in the adventurers' guilds.

After collecting their poison cores, the two of them started to walk north.

"So are you going to tell me your name? Or do I have to call you human every time?"

Since this was going to be a long journey, she wanted to pass the time by making a conversation with him.

"You can call me Ghost"

"Who the f**k would call himself Ghost?"

"The f**k who's called Gaya"

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 50 badass points]

"I can earn points by being myself? Cool"

He was proudly grinning while Gaya stopped walking and looked alarmed.

"How...how did you know my name? I didn't say my name"

"I have my ways, now keep walking, I don't want to spend my night in this forest"
