[Your body may be injured and feel pain, but you will not die until the set time ends]
[Time remaining 00.19 minutes]
Peter jumped up, he slashed at Bagas from above. A powerful strike from a sharp sword, if it hit a human body it would definitely split with the sharpness of the powerful sword.
Wosh!
"Your movements are still as slow as ever, Peter!"
Klang!
Bagas held the dagger upside down, pointing its sharpness backwards and blocking Peter's sword that was attacking from above.
Slash!
Bagas retaliated by aiming for Peter's neck with the dagger in his left hand, Peter immediately twisted his body backwards to avoid the Shadow Eagle's swift attack. Several strands of Peter's hair were cut off, James' attack was fast. Peter was able to dodge in the nick of time.
Bagas was about to lunge at Peter who dodged him, but two people from different sides targeted his right and left abdomen. It was an attack from Noris and Ruby. The two weapons crushed Bagas' body as he was just concentrating on fighting Peter.
Slash!
Slash!
[Speed increased to maximum]
Bagas twisted his body while jumping up, the two weapon slashes were dodged. However, Ruby's attack still grazed his stomach, Bagas' shirt was torn and he suffered a cut. The cut hit a small part of his abdomen.
Slash!
Blood dripped again.
[You won't die even if your body is destroyed, but you feel the pain of an injured body]
This is all because of the consequences of Bagas' second request. Give him a chance despite the pain, before his time is up. Bagas felt a lot of pain. The attacks from two people came again. They targeted the top and bottom, a combo attack from Ramos and Gery.
Klang!
Klang!
Klang!
Attacks from right and left, up and down. Bagas used all his assassin skills to block and parry all the attacks. Although, he suffered quite a few cuts and lacerations on every part of his body.
[Your body is designed to survive, you will experience pain but you will not die before your time is up]
[Your second request is confirmed]
Peter looked for an opening, now he realized that James was a very strong enemy. Although he was together with him in one assassin organization, James was the most genius assassin in Dark Head. Therefore, to become the leader of Dark Head easily, he must kill James. So, Peter uses all means to eliminate James.
In the end, Peter asked for help from Jenny and Argus to poison James during the welcoming party because James successfully carried out his mission outside the country.
Peter pointed his gun forward, looking for the best opening while James was in a fierce battle with the four Assassin leaders. Peter thought the gun was above his sword, he was looking for his target well.
Yes! Peter was the best assassin when it came to shooting. He was very famous in Dark Head as well as all the assassin organizations. The accuracy of his shots was never in doubt and he was famous for never missing when firing his bullets.
Peter twitched the tip of his gun, he sharpened his eyes. Right at James who was still fighting with the four strongest assassins.
Klang!
Klang!
Peter covered one eye, James was still busy fighting and moving to and fro. The fight that was going on and making wounds on all sides.
This shot will end it!
It's time!
DOR!
The bullets were moving so fast, Peter targeted long enough to see the movement of James who was ducking to avoid the attack from Ramos.
Brush!
The world seemed to stop, the bullet actually pierced James' head above the ear. The shot was powerful and knocked James' body, pushed hard and dragged to the ground. The body drooped on the ground, the four Assassin leaders who attacked James also stopped.
Is it over already?
***
Someone was carrying two unconscious people. He went down the hallway, he had to save the two people in a safe place. The woman in the wheelchair being pushed was Nadia. Meanwhile, the man carried on his back is Inspector Jodi.
That man was Khalid, he was asked by Shadow Eagle to bring the two to safety.
Khalid quickened his footsteps, he continued to head towards the hallway to exit the State Palace. He believed that the James who occupied Bagas' body would succeed in defeating the assassin leaders. A returnee from hell had returned to seek revenge.
Reincarnation into a young man's body, what an impossibility! However, Khalid saw with his own head.
A strong murderous aura!
Someone is coming!
Khalid understood the situation, he felt an enormous aura of power streaking towards him. There was a hollow in the wall as a decoration of the passage. Khalid immediately entered the hollow in the wall and hid Nadia and Inspector Jodi. He dispelled the aura by regulating his breathing and trying to be as calm as possible.
As an assassin, he also learned how to dispel his killing aura. An assassin was also able to sense the killing aura around him.
Wosh!
Wosh!
Two people darted out very quickly, they were running at high speed. From behind the hiding place, Khalid caught a glimpse of the two people darting at high speed. Both were professional assassins, and from the glimpse of the faces that passed by. Khalid knew who was coming!
The real leader of Dark Head!
Lord Thomas!
How did leader Thomas recover from his illness? Whose side was he coming to this battleground on?
However, behind Khalid's astonishment. He trusted James so much, whatever enemy was in front of him James would definitely fight him. Khalid began to move again and brought the two people who were unconscious to quickly get out and find a safe place.
***
Ah! It hurts!
Bagas felt the same sensation when he had not yet migrated from James' soul to Bagas' body. The death he had always imagined was painful and horrible. The shot that ended his life after the poison destroyed his internal organs.
[Your body feels pain, but you will not die before the appointed time]
Five people still stood watching Bagas' body as it fell to the floor. The five assassin leaders thought that they had ended James because there had been no movement for several seconds.
However, they were alerted again as a very strong killing spirit suddenly appeared again. They all immediately braced themselves, whose aura was this?
Klap!
Bagas' eyes opened very strongly, the pain he suffered would be endured no matter how painful it was. His goal was clear, to eliminate all the assassins.
"No way!"
Peter's lips trembled as James' drooping body moved and rose. The body stood up again and was still staring down at the floor.
Five people readied themselves.
"Peter! This is what it was like when you shot me after poisoning me! I remember the sensation of pain. You have reminded me of that pain!"
"Attack together...!"
Noris shouted to her comrades, but Bagas was already moving very fast and grabbed his dagger.
Wosh!
Bagas aimed for Noris who was closest to him.
[God Steep, an innate ability that Assassin James has enhanced]
At a glance, Bagas was already in front of Noris. However, Noris was no ordinary assassin, she was the leader of Leviathan, although she was shocked she immediately blocked Shadow Eagle's dagger strike.
Klang!
[Stealth activated]
Wosh!
She disappeared!
After the clash of sword and dagger, Bagas disappeared and was already on Noris' back and thrust another one of his daggers at Noris' back. An attack that pierced through Noris' front body.
Srak!
Noris' eyes widened, the pain spread and his heart stopped from being pierced by the weapon. His hands were shaking.
Slap!
The other four attacked Bagas, they were too late to help Noris. Bagas drew his dagger, and parried Ruby's sharp scythe attack. Bagas blocked with two daggers at once.
Klang!
Wosh!
Ramos came from behind at high speed, trying to slash Bagas' head. Bagas twisted his legs and blocked Ramos' attack. However, from the side, Gery had already slashed his long knife.
Bagas's back was slashed, blood spurted and the pain returned.
[You can feel the pain, but your body will survive until the end of your time]
[Time remaining 00.15 minutes]
This pain..., this sensation...,
I don't care.
Peter came from the front, he wanted to stab Bagas who was fighting the other three assassins. Bagas threw the dagger in his left hand upwards, twisting the holder and turning his body.
Crop!
The stab hit Gery, Gery didn't have time to dodge the attack because it had just hit Bagas.
Crop!
The other dagger pierced Gery's back. Two daggers front and back. He was covered in blood.
Bagas was only able to draw one dagger, Peter's attack was already coming. Bagas stepped back and lowered his head.
Whoosh!
That leaves three people left!
Slap!
Bagas was caught off guard, a sword thrust from above, Ramos stabbed Bagas in the back with his sword. Bagas felt the pain again, he endured the pain. Bagas twisted his leg.
Slap! Slap!
He cut Ruby and Ramos' legs with his dagger. Both immediately backed away, blood flowing from their legs.
Peter still advanced and faced Bagas.
Klang!
Klang!
Klang!
Bagas was pushed back. The two exchanged kicks and punches, both bouncing off each other. Four people remained, all of them wounded.
Bagas saw the sword that was still stuck, he pulled it from behind.
Slap!
AAAAAAAAHHHHH!
Blood dripped, not caring about the pain. Bagas had little time left.
[Your remaining time is 00.12 minutes]
Bagas held two weapons, a sword and a dagger.
The attack came again, the three assassins were also ready to die.
HIIAAAAA!
HIIIAAAAAA!
Klang!
Ruby and Ramos attacked again, they also used pistols. Bagas dodged the bullets and blocked their gun attacks. From behind, Peter attacked and targeted the back of Bagas.
Woosh!
Got you!
Crop!
Slash!
A sword thrust pierced Bagas' body, but Bagas didn't avoid it because he also stabbed Ruby in the stomach. Bagas felt the pain again, but he didn't care anymore. He would endure as much pain as he could.
Bagas bent his knees, enduring the pain.
Bruk!
Ruby's body also fell. Two people remained.
Peter attacked again, a sword attack. Bagas rejected his hand and dodged the attack. However, he was already blocked by Ramos. He also used the sword that was left in his hand to block Ramos' attack.
Klang!
Slash!
Ramos used his other weapon to slash Bagas' arm, and the attack was successful.
AAAAAAAH!
Crop!
Bagas' left hand came off, but he also slashed Ramos' neck quickly.
[You will not die before your time runs out]
[Your time remaining 00.10 minutes]
Only two people were left standing, both of them wounded.
"Do we really need to end this, James!" said Peter.
"You started it, Peter! I'll take you to hell with me!"
"You're crazy James!"
Wossh!
Peter attacked with his sword, Bagas also prepared his sword. Their attacks met, Bagas was left with only his right hand.
Klang!
Klang!
They attacked each other, looking for an opening. Exhaustion had reached its peak. They leapt from their opponents' attacks, jumping over the corpses of the assassin leaders. Both were from Dark Head, and this was the fight that would settle all grudges between them.
"Why do you always ruin my plans, James!"
"You're the sneaky one, Peter!"
"Shit!"
Klang!
Klang!
Slap!
Slash!
Their bodies were both hit by the weapon's slash, they dodged the opponent's attack but the swift attack still hurt them. Their speed was hard to see by ordinary eyes. An attack speed that looked like dozens of slashes in one second. And, the two strongest people in Dark Head showed the training they had done all this time. Speed and agility.
Brush!
They again exchanged punches and kicks, their breathing visibly labored. They stood imperfectly, staggering and tired, pain and sting mixed together. It was a grueling fight.
"Why did you kill me, Peter!" Bagas' voice sounded heavy, he was trying to catch his breath and recover his strength.
Peter looked at James, the bird mask he wore already splattered with blood.
"I was only doing my duty to Thomas, James! He wants your life!"
DOR!
Bagas' eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he was seeing. A shot hit Peter in the back of the head. It was an accurate shot, and Peter's body simply fell over.
Bruk!
Those are...!
