Chapter 48 [Bonus Chapter] Feigning Death!

Bobby found her words somewhat irritating, but they reminded him of his skills. Then he spoke in his head, "Devil's eye, activate!" His eyes glinted golden for an instance and briskly returned to normal.

In a moment, he engaged the X-ray mode and began to scan, sweeping around the location.

"So, you finally see their exact location. What are you going to do now?" Cynthia asked curiously.

" I didn't offend anyone in my life. Nevertheless, trouble came my way eventually. Hmm, what do you think I'll do to them? Just watch closely how I tackle them." Bobby replied sternly. He then began to walk in the street leading them all to an isolated alleyway.

Suddenly, he stopped and said, "Can you all come out now? I don't really like people sneaking behind me."

No one replied. The surrounding turned amiably serene and sometimes, cracking sounds of crickets could be heard from time to time.

"Oh-ho, are we going to play this little hide and seek game? Come out already, it's not fun anymore. I have already found out about your little location." Bobby replied, making the three assassins hiding in the dark tense up.

But the most startled one was the naked lady who was currently observing all his moves. "What the hell?! Is it the tackle you are talking about? Are you nuts?" Cynthia cried out.

"So you all don't want to come out. Alright, then," Bobby said, pointing toward the three spots at the corners of the alleyway. " You over there, there, and you. Come out now. Let's have some serious chat now."

"Ho ho ho, quite good for someone to see through our stealthy skills." A man with pointed green hair appeared before him. "Alright, guys, why don't you all come out too?" He then looked at Bobby and said licking the curvy knife in his hand. "But too bad. You are just a Defect. And it would be an easy kill. Guys, can I finish this brat alone?"

Two scrawny men also came out not far from him.

"Okay, deal with him quickly. This is the most boring job we have ever accepted. Let's chill out in a bar later." One of them replied.

"Fine, I don't like killing a Defect, anyway." The other said coldly. There was aloofness in his attitude.

Bobby observed all the three of them gingerly using his Devil's Eyes skill. But when he saw the status of the aloof guy, his brows knitted for a bit. He saw that he was in the main energy level 3 base while the other two were just level 2 base.

"Hee-hee-hee, today is your lucky day. This one seems to be a bit interesting. You need to be careful of him. " Cynthia chuckled and warned him.

"Yeah, I know," Bobby replied in his mind.

"Alright, enough with the chit-chat. Time to send you to your maker." Green spiky hair man said with a grin, dashed toward Bobby, and the next moment he was just before him. He then stabbed the curvy knife in his stomach.

Puchi!

"Aarrgh!" Bobby howled in pain and caught the hand of the green hair assassin.

"Oh, you don't have any intention to resist. That's even better. I don't like to spend my time on trash like you. I rarely kill Defects like you. So, you can die feeling proud." The assassin with the green lock said in a taunting way. He then happened to look at Bobby's eyes and soon his eyes turned cyan all of a sudden.

Bobby then leaned toward his shoulder and whispered something in his ear. After that, the green spiky hair assassin took his knife out of Bobby's body and pushed Bobby's body down, hitting the ground with a thudding sound. He then cleaned the bloodstain on his knife with a handkerchief and threw it over the ground.

"Guys, our job is done here. How about grabbing some beer?" The green-spiky hair assassin walked toward the other two assassins.

"Fine, let's go. Today's task is tedious. Hmm, let's clear our minds with some drinks." agreed, the scrawny-looking assassin.

Then the three began to walk out of the place, leaving Bobby on the cool ground.

But suddenly, after they took a few steps, the green spiky hair assassin attacked the aloof-looking assassin, stabbing his curvy knife while aiming directly at his heart.

The reaction of the level 3 main-based assassin was superb. However, despite his best efforts, the green-spiky-haired man managed to pierce his right thigh with some tricky yet sneaky hand technique.

"You dare! Wind palm strike!" The aloof-looking assassin shouted and punched him in his stomach. The green-headed assassin was bombarded by his punch, sending him flying high in the air, trailing a mist of red blood, and landing on the ground. His fate was unknown.

The other scrawny assassin standing beside him was dumbfounded by the sudden turn of the events.

The aloof-looking man gazed at him coldly, released all his auras, and pressed at him.

"Number 7, spare me. I had nothing to do with his atrocity. He acted all alone. Please, spare me." The scrawny-looking assassin pleaded for his leniency.

"Alright, number 5, then prove it to me." The assassin, with aloof nature, ordered icy coldly. "Bring his head to me."

The assassin with the code name No. 5 wobbled precariously toward the green hair assassin. He unsheathed his curvy knife and pierced, puncturing the heart of the green hair assassin. He then looked at the aloof-looking man, waiting for his approval.

"Number 5, I told you to bring his head. Are you defying my order?" The aloof-looking man peered at him crookedly.

"No-no, I'll bring it right away." The scrawny-looking assassin answered briskly. He then removed his curvy knife and began to cut the neck of the green hair assassin. After that, he held his head by the hair and walked up to the aloof-looking assassin. "Number 7, his head is here." He passed it to him. ""

"Pack it up." The aloof-looking assassin explained, tapping on his shoulder. " Relax, number 5. I don't have any reason to kill you. But, to remain alive, it is still necessary for us to hand it over to our master and come up with a good excuse."

Bang!

The aloof-looking assassin quickly pulled the assassin with the sobriquet, Number 5 toward him. A lead bullet ripped through the Number 5's head, followed by a loud sound, sprayed the tinkled of blood drops over his face.

"Oh, fuck!" The assassin No. 7 cussed, dropped the dead body of the assassin No. 5 over the ground.

Bang!

Another lead bullet sailed toward him. "Wind step, activate!" He shouted, dozing the bullet. But still, the lead bullet managed to graze over his face.

"Who the fuck are you? Show yourself." Assassin No. 7 shouted at the top of his voice. His stealthy method then enabled him to hide in the shadows while checking everything around him closely.

Bang! Bang! Bang!.....

This time, one of the bullets managed to hit his left leg.

"Aargh!" He screamed in pain and quickly changed his hiding spot.

" Hmph," The assassin No. 7 snorted and said, threatening him. " Using such an antique gun in a fight. Coward, you better stay hidden. The moment I even see a shadow of your existence, I will rip your body to shreds."

A lanky youth appeared in his sight, holding a pistol in his hand. "You are called No. 7, right? Here I'm. Ahahaha, what an amazing show you guys have been playing. I'm really satisfied with it….. Tell me this one question and I'll spare your life." Bobby then asked with a serious tone, "Who put the hit on my head?"

"Bahahaha… Oh, boy, you have a good sense of humor. Spare me? Hahaha…" The Assassin No, 7 who always remained aloof, burst into a peal of hysterical laughter and he further continued. "The information regarding you was all wrong. As far as I see, you are not as simple as they branded you as a Defect. Isn't it? You manage to take down two of my teammates effortlessly. And you have some guts, boy. I can give you that. But still, I will kill you." "I know you are out of bullets. What can you do to me now?"

The assassin No. 7 suddenly took a step, appeared just behind Bobby. And he then jabbed his fingers at his neck.

Bobby was quicker as he managed to dodge it and kicked him in his wounded left leg.

After separating, the two stared at each other intently while creating a gap between them.

"Kiddo, are you really a Defect?" The assassin No. 7 asked with confusion.

"What do you think?" Bobby replied with a grin.

"Fine, then I can go all out." The assassin No. 7 said. He then began to channel up a new skill in his right hand, gathering the origin qi from all over his body. Soon a strong wind elemental greenish-white ball began to appear in his hand.
