The Legacy System

Eric had been gloomy for quite a while right now, as he didn't like the situation around the place in the least.

Especially the fact that he seemed like he was the only person who seemed to be coming to work in this place, as everyone else was clearly an agent of some other country or some other organization.

This place belonged to him, and yet it was being used as some kind of park attraction for the whole world.

On top of that, he was the only one who looked suspicious among them, which made him feel even more embarrassed of himself.

He truly felt like a rookie at that moment, and he was letting down himself, and his two lives at that moment.

As if that wasn't enough, these guys were whispering and doubting his strength, and abilities all the time, looking at him as if he was some kind of delicious desert.

So, the truth was that he was extremely angry, and enraged inside. The only good thing about this was that he had left his companions back in the city to have a look around at the situation.

He had worn these clothes in a hurry, as he didn't want to lose time, but who would expect such a result.

Just as he was pondering upon all these matters, and was looking for an idiot to provoke and give a beating to, these motherfu*cker blocks his sight.

He didn't know if this was Heaven's home delivery service or just this idiot's bad luck but he wouldn't miss on such a good opportunity that came knocking on his door.

That was of course after he made sure to check this guy's level according to the system and make sure that he could easily seckill him.

He wasn't an idiot that bit more than he could chew, if this guy was stronger than him, then he would try to go the peace route, but once he saw it wasn't much he decided to make him his target.

He had noticed already that this fu*cker seemed to have a few friends in the crowd, but he didn't really care much, as he could deal with them anyway.

Since he was going to play a show for everyone, then he would make sure to play the best show they had seen.

The moment that the butcher reached his machete, a dagger appeared in Eric's hands, as he swiftly cut the butcher's leg tendons, and then gave him a cut on his crotch, and one on his throat.

Before the crowd could react, he sat down once again on his spot, as everyone saw the butcher go down noisily, with at least 4 or 5 leakages from his body.

The whole crowd around him were shocked, they had only seen Eric move from his spot, and seat, as everything else had been just a blur.

They couldn't believe their eyes and even forgot to breathe for a moment or two, as even the air around them seemed to have stagnated.

By the time they were reminded to breathe, the butcher was already dead, and there was a blood puddle under him.

Even though they were all trained agents, who would kill without blinking their eyes, they still couldn't help but get shocked.

Especially the males, as the moment that they saw the cut on the butcher's crotch they couldn't help but instinctively touch their respective 'little brothers' as a chill ran down their backs.

At that moment, another lunatic seemed to have come out of the crowd and started screaming at Eric who seemed to be acting all cool and mysterious.

"Aaahhh, you motherfu*cker do you know who you have messed up with!? You piece of shit with a death wish!

I will kill you!"

With that said, he immediately jumped forward, and the moment he was in the air more than 6 Malayan kraits appeared out of nowhere heading in Eric's direction.

Even though all this was happening too fast, he was able to hear someone in the crowd say,

"He is Malayan krait, isn't he one of the 4 evil brothers!?"

Eric didn't need to look at this guy, in order to 'see' his movements as he had already locked on him with his spirit sense, but the fact was that he was a bit surprised that he had such a reputation.

According to his Legacy System, this guy was level 47, and while he wasn't the strongest out there, he was one of the most dangerous he could face.

The reason was that this guy didn't only have just these 6 Malayan kraits on his body. According to his spirit sense, this motherfu*cker had more than 30 Malayan kraits more around his body.

Not only that, but there was even 1 Malayan krait king, that seemed to have developed a bit of sentience, and a core.

These damn things were certainly worrisome for some normal people but for Eric who had a dire need of some rare blood these things were the best specimen.

Certainly, their venom was the deadliest around, and the survival rates were extremely low, but he had full confidence in himself to deal with the person in front of him.

Furthermore, just like they said, the best place to find an antidote would be at the source, as even his Legacy System affirmed that the core of a Malaya krait's king was a great antidote to many poisons.

As long as he got his hand on that thing wouldn't he have an extra chip on his hand, and also protection against many poisons?

He started this show for the sake of showing off and creating a 'face' for himself amidst these guys, but it looked like he could enjoy some nice profits on the way as well.

But now wasn't the time to think about that, as he had to take care of the situation in front of him, as his daggers appeared on his hand once again, and he started dancing amid the snakes and cutting them up.

Since there were only 6 of them he was able to easily take care of them, and prepare for a counter-attack against the guy controlling them, but that guy reacted quickly too.

The moment he saw that 6 snakes weren't enough to even make him break a sweat, he immediately sent the rest, all of them.

6 Malayan kraits weren't much of a threat for Eric, but the moment that the other 24 appeared, it made the situation quite complicated.

It wasn't that he couldn't kill all those damn snakes and then their master, but by the time he did so he would have been bitten quite a few times, and he would fall in a truly dangerous state.

The other guys in the boat weren't his friends, but his enemies, so the moment he showed a moment of weakness then he would surely die without even knowing why.

That fu*cker in front of him was attacking with everything he had, and he seemed to have a death wish, as not only his snakes but he was even attacking himself.

No matter how he looked at it, he was clearly at a disadvantage at that moment and situation, so the best thing he could do was think of a way out.

With that thought in his mind, he immediately decided on his next course of action, as he made to jump from the boat into the water.

There was no way these things would follow him under the water, and even if they did, he had more confidence in dealing with them in there.

What he hadn't expected was that the moment he actually decided and made the jump, he suddenly felt a great danger in front of him, but it was already too late to dodge.

He could only try his best, and slightly twist his head to the right, as a knife appeared out of nowhere aiming for his throat.

His slight twist helped him dodge the lethal strike and avoid his throat, but the knife still managed to cut him quite a bit on the neck.

He could feel and hear the guy's anger, and rage for having failed the instant kill, but he didn't seem like he gave Eric much hope.

But there was no other knife aiming for him at that moment, so the only logical explanation would be that the knife was coated in poison, just like his silent reaper.

Damn!

Eric couldn't believe his damn luck, and especially the fact that he had been ambushed, and he hadn't been able to sense his attacker.

His spirit sense had failed him at that moment, but he didn't have time to think about it, as he was still in the air, he could feel quite a few snakes jump towards him and bite his body, including the king snake.

Fuck my luck!

That was what he thought at that moment, but that wasn't the time to curse at his luck, as he had to act quickly.

Clashing into the water, and then diving deep underwater, shocked the snakes temporarily so he used that moment to swiftly cut them with his knife.

Even though he was quite fast in dealing with them, he was still unable to escape the bites, as even more venom entered his system.

With the amount of venom that entered his body, he was unable to keep his conscience for long, as he had 2 or 3 seconds at most.

If he wanted to live then he had to act in these three seconds, otherwise, he was a goner.

In the meantime, time outside, two men were looking at the scene on the water, as the boat continued its way towards the Senkaku Islands.

They wanted to stop and look closer at what was going on, but they didn't dare to ask for the boat to stop with the people in there.

Still, they were able to relax a bit as they smelled the metallic smell of blood coming from that direction and that red blossom over the water…
