Death System: I awakened SSS rank System

Chapter 22: Spy on Spy



Horis spotted a cloaked figure standing by a side and pressing the door alarm to an invisible room. He smiled and walked closer.

Suddenly the Zakar popped out his head through the rift but the cloaked figure vanished immediately. Horis stated in shock.

'Why did it knock and then vanish? What's up with this guy?' he thought to himself and walked closer to the door.

"Check him up." the feminine voice boomed again. Horis face tightened he had not expected her to still be on the line.

"Are you still on? Damn." Horis cursed silently. That single distraction costed him a lot.

In a second he was swung up and slammed down to the ground before being crashed against the ground again. His body greased against the ground.

Horis looked up to see the cloaked figure standing before him. It's face hidden in the darkness of the coat but its repelling red energy that emanated from his eye stood out.

'What the fuck. I lost my guard. It had noticed me right from the start which was why it left as soon as it knocked. Fuck. I was too slow figure that out.' he cursed faintly.

"You are one of a kind." Horis muttered and stood up slowly. The cloaked figure didn't respond.

In another second it dashed forward with brute speed striking it's leg against his face but he used his elbow to counter the attack. The force exploded a large quantum of energy.

"You're a strong one. We can actually avoid fighting as it stands. I'm not sure you want a gathering at this spot because of you." Horis said and pushed its leg away.

"So what brings you here? Anything special and why the coat? You're hiding for some reason right? What is it?" he said but the cloaked figure didn't move or respond.

"I see you are dumb. I will just report this incident to General Lemon. That should do. So wha—" he was struck down with a violent kick. Blood splattered from his mouth as he staggered backwards.

He lucked his blood and smiled. He turned to look at the figure. He couldn't tell exactly the gender of it but he was sure that it was an assassin breed.

"Your combat is too blunt. I could have dodged that. For a side attack that was real weak. I—" he was thrown up in the air by an invisible force.

The figure stretched out its hands and it glowed with red energy. Horis looked down and noticed that it had controlled gravity against him.

"Fuck. What sort of system did it awaken?" he cursed and clenched his fists.

Suddenly a blue energy coarsed around his arm and in a second it boomed brightly to explode the red energy that circled around him.

THUD!!!

He landed on the ground with his feet. His eyes burnt with blue flames. The figure perfected its battle stance.

"Mmh. You really are a stubborn kind. I doubted your strength but it seems like you are a good rank." Horis said calmly and summoned blue flames.

The figure dashed out in an explosive speed. Simultaneously Horis shot the flames at the after images of the figure. He tilted his head left and he got slashed with a sword that he had not seen before now.

"Argghh!" Horis cried out lightly as he clutched his chest and blood dripped from the cut.

"Horis are you okay? This opponent isn't your rank. You have to back off." the feminine voice echoed in his head.

"You are still here?" he sounded annoyed more than pained by his cut.

The figure stretched out its hands and the sword materialised out of thin air. Horis gasped but smiled faintly.

"You are one of a kind." he muttered and shot a flame that he summoned while speaking with the female.

BOOM!!!!

The strike exploded across the vicinity. The cloaked figure fell to the ground.

"I was beginning to think you were invincible." Horis muttered and laughed but his smile faded as soon as he noticed that the figure faded away. He had done nothing but shot at an after image.

"Fuck. It's fast." Horis muttered and turned sharply but it was too late.

SLICE!!!!

The figure struck at his neck but nothing happened. No blood. No cries. No pain. Just nothing but the heart beat of him.

He looked to his side to notice the sword an inch from his neck. A clear indication that it had spared his life.

"I do not want you on me again." the voice of the figure came out cold. It sounded feminine and strong.

"What? Don't tell me..." he muttered in shock.

She raised the cloak and her face shone bright. Her hair dimmed brightly. Her beauty radiated in all dimensions and he collapsed on the ground.

"That's one of a humiliation there." he muttered in exhaustion. He looked up at her.

"Really? Melissa? You're a damn witch." he cursed cruelly. She smiled and bursted into a rough laughter.

"Real taunting." Horis muttered in annoyance.

"Yah. Just a little test. Now let's go before anyone sees us." Melissa said and smiled.
