Hitman With A Badass System-Novel

Michael was squeezing through the narrow crack to get to the other side.

Hostus followed him behind while Maxine entered through the crack last.

As he squeezed through the crack, the torch he had in his hand got put out.

The sudden darkness worked in his favor though. Without Hostus noticing, Michael cast the Death Range spell. His strength exploded thanks to the darkness. He pushed the rock in front of him while pushing back the rock behind him using his back. The narrow crack creaked as it got wider.

Maxine could breathe a little considering the narrow crack became wider.

Although Hostus felt the crack widening, he didn't think the youngster before him had the strength to move the mountain literally.

"My lord, can you see the other side?" Maxine breathed heavily. Even after the crack widened, she had a hard time squeezing through the crack due to her body shape.

"I can feel the air, just a bit more" he answered. He sensed tiredness in Maxine's voice. It was weird of her to get exhausted.

"I…I don't…feel very good" Just after Maxine talked, Hostus also opened his mouth.

Surprisingly the Spartan also sounded exhausted, more exhausted than Maxine.

"Quit whining, just a bit more" He focused on squeezing through the crack. When he was a little child, he had an extreme claustrophobic condition. He had that condition until he trained with Spectre. One day when Spectre knew about Michael's fear of closed spaces, Spectre put him in a casket and buried him for an entire day.

Spectre made him face his own fears rather than running away from them. In the end, he was able to let go of the fear of closed spaces. Until Spectre went crazy and ordered assassins to kill the orphanage Michael cared about, he was not only a mentor to him but also a father figure.

Everything Michael knew, he learned from Spectre. Deep down in his heart, he still missed the old guy.

[Warning!]

[Warning!]

Suddenly his entire eight sight was filled with warning messages from the system. His train of thoughts immediately stopped by the screaming noises inside his head.

[Extreme amount of radiation!]

[the host has been exposed to an extreme amount of radiation!]

[Immediate action required]

[The system recommends the host to purchase and use 100% healing potion]

[The healing potion would prevent the radiation from permanently causing damage to the host for 30 mins]

"Shit!"

"Maxine, go back!" He was startled. Immediately turning his head towards Maxine, he shouted,

[One potion would cost the host 5000 badass points. Does the host wish to buy the healing potion?]

"Yes..fuck..do it. Buy two"

Michael shouted in his mind at the system.

"ARGHHH!"

Several seconds after the warning, he started to feel a vomiting sensation as well as muscle pain because of the radiation.? Using his remaining strength in his body, Michael began to push the mountain wall forward with his legs.

He let out a loud cry pushing the mountain back and forth. He was not strong enough to move the mountain but strong enough the widened the crack several inches more which would make escaping the narrow crack easier for Maxine,

As he made the crack open wide, the system gave him the healing potion. He wasted no time as he immediately chugged the entire potion in one gulp.

"Maxine, drink this" he completely ignored Hostus who was between Michael and Maxine. The Spartan leaned back on the wall to stand straight. He was breathing heavily.

Completely ignoring Hostus, Michael conjured a ball of flame which lightened up the dark mine. He then tossed the sparkling blue healing potion towards Maxine. The potion was sparkling as though it was liquid gold.

Maxine was having trouble standing straight. She felt her muscles become weak and had a killing headache. In addition to muscle pain and headache, she felt like she was going to faint any second. Still, mustering all the strength in her body, she raised her hand catching the potion in the mid-air.

"Wind Blast!"

Just like him, Maxine too chugged the healing potion in one go. The moment she finished the healing potion, Michael sent a powerful blast of wind towards her. The powerful gust of wind pushed both Hostus and Maxine out of the narrow crack.

Unlike Maxine and Hostus, he didn't run out of the narrow crack but pushed himself deeper into the crack.

"Lightning Dash" he cast the spell and willed the system to equip his Lucifer armor.

In a split second, he transformed into his complete lucifer form. The metal plates attached to the armor scratched with the rough walls on either side, creating sparks of fire. If it wasn't for the armor, the skin on his arms would have been scrapped off like a carrot by the rough walls.

With the help of Lightning Dash, he pushed himself out of the crack.

"Whoa!"

Michael's reflexes saved him yet again as he was just an inch away from falling down into a pit below him. The ground ended after several meters from the narrow path opening. What in front of him was nothing but an endless dark pit.

"Wow" He looked down into the dark pit. The hole was as large as the meteor crater of Arizona or wider. He could not see the end of the dark pit. It was pitch black.

"What is this place?" He looked around in shock. Above the crater, he was able to see countless crystals brighter than the one he got from Vibius on the roof. These crystals were blood red and bigger in size.

However, Michael was afraid to fly to the crystals and mine them without knowing what was lying inside the hole.

"System, if something went wrong, buy a teleportation scroll and teleport me and Maxine to a safe distance"

[Is the host planning to jump into the endless pit?]

"Of course not"

He took out a drone from his space ring. Standing on the edge of the crater, he looked down once again before sending the drone flying down into the deep dark pit.

His heart was pounding against his chest. The mere sight of the gigantic pitch-black pit freaked him out.

"Azazel, are you seeing the footage of the drone I just deployed?"

"Yes my lord" Azazel's grim voice sounded in his head.

"System, record everything"

He could see the footage being captured by the drone in his mind. The drone disappeared from his eyesight yet he noticed nothing but darkness.

"Grmmmmmmm"

Suddenly a ground-shaking groan emerged deep from the pit. The very next moment, the drone footage disappeared before glitching. The drone crumbled into bits and pieces.

"Shit shit shit" Michael's legs took steps backward in fear,

"Lightning Dash" he immediately cast the spell, wasting no time. Under his skull mask, his face was pale as he was drenched in sweat.

He never felt overwhelmingly terrified before in his life.

He ran away from the pit without even turning back.

Screech!

The armor collided with the walls, producing sparks as he dashed away from the pit. The armor was completely disfigured and lost its shiny metallic black color.

Boom!

As he exited the narrow crack, he stumbled down and went sliding for a couple of meters before stopping.

"My Lord!" Maxine shouted seeing him coming out crashing down.

However, before she could run towards him, Michael kicked up. He didn't stand still but yet again activated a lightning dash towards the narrow crack opening.

This time when he reached the opening, he didn't squeeze through. He grabbed the two sides of the mountain and pulled them closer using all of his strength.

"ARGHHHHHHHHH!" his shout echoed through the mine. Every single muscle in his body popped up as the armor began to crack. There were also cracks formed up in the walls of the mountain on either side of the narrow opening.

Maxine was completely stunned by his show of raw strength. She saw the narrow opening-closing up inch by inch. It seemed like he was moving the mountain itself. Closing the opening was not easy at all, he could feel his consciousness drifting away. Yet, he pushed himself to the absolute limit because what he saw was nothing but death. He stared death in its eyes and came back.

Boom!

Eventually, after several seconds, the crack finally shut, producing a booming sound. Maxine came running to him when he collapsed down to the ground.

She didn't worry about Hostus because the spartan bled to death. It was a horrible death, he bled through all the pores and holes in his body. He kept twitching like a fish out of the water before losing his life forever.

"My lord, what happened?!" Maxine knelt on his side before taking his head in her hand. She placed his head on her lap,

"System…"? Michael mumbled under his breath using the last bit of his strength,

"Teleport…dark…forest"

Maxine felt the air around her become chilly. She had experienced this before. Hence, she held Michael closer and closed her eyes.

***********************************

When she opened her eyes, she was in a dark cozy room.

"What happened?"

"Fuck!" Maxine shouted. She was startled by Azazel's sudden appearance.

"What the fuck are you?"

"It's not important. Put my lord on the bed" Azazel pointed at the bed. His ethereal face had a worried look. Maxine growled, lifting Michael. With his armor, he was a little too heavy.

"Careful" Azazel exclaimed,

She almost collapsed onto the bed with him because of his weight.

"The moment you go back to the mountain, close the area you were in '' Maxine didn't know what the hell is the figure floating before her but she could sense the fear in his voice.

"Do you know what happened and why Lord Lucifer closed the opening?"

"Dorment Hydra"

Both of them heard Michael's voice. They turned their heads to the bed to see Lucifer standing up.

"The hydra is in Stormveil mountain"
