Fantasy Assassin In A Modern World Chapter 23
Advertisement
When Loki got away from the woman called Matsuri he immediately went back to tail her. Loki spotted Matsuri in front of the coffee shop sighing before walking away. Loki followed ten meters behind Matsuri. As he was tailing her, Loki took out his smartphone and made a phone call.
...
In a certain dark room, there were multiple monitors each playing a different thing. On one monitor was a chart of the stock market, on another, was a streaming Vtuber, and on another was a cryptic message, another had various camera footages. There were many things displayed on these various monitors and the one watching each one was eating a lollipop as he typed onto his keyboard with a speed that made his hands look like he had more than two.
The man in question looked no older than thirteen years old and had messy black hair and a sleepy look about him. This was Harold Wagner, a young prodigy whose intelligence has no rival amongst his peers. Due to various reasons, he now never goes to school and refuses to leave his room unless absolutely necessary.
He had met Luke in an online game he recently got hooked in. After learning more about Luke he found that the man was a rather cool guy. Harold had helped Luke on numerous occasions by gathering intel, this was one of the reasons that even though Luke's group were just a group of high school delinquents they were still able to deal with the local gangs.
...
As Harold was watching the numerous things on the different monitors, while he was playing and single-player fps game, his phone started ringing. He was surprised that someone was calling him at his hour, as the only people that have his phone number were few. There were his parents, Luke, and that dangerous individual. When Harold checked who was calling him his eyes widened in shock.

'What does this guy want? Do I need to answer this or can I ignore it?' Harold was hesitating but then he remembered what that guy did and the skills he employed. This person could kill him without anyone knowing it was him.
Harold even tried finding whatever he can about Loki and was only able to get some basic information. There was nothing there that could explain how Loki was so powerful, at first he thought Loki was part of a martial arts family, but upon investigation, it turns out Loki came from a very normal family background.
Despite all of his efforts, all the information Harold got was that Loki was a college grad that was now working as a librarian in a relatively famous school. No matter how hard he searched Harold could find no trace of how Loki gained his skills. That was the first time in his whole life that had failed to gain the information that he needed. To Harold what scared him more wasn't what Loki could do to him, but the lack of information he had on Loki.
Harold looked at his ringing phone nervously, he didn't want to answer but he had no choice. Well, it's not like Loki was a bad person per se, he was a dangerous individual for sure, but not necessarily a bad one. Loki even paid him for the information he wanted. Harold sighed before answering his phone.
"Hello, Sir, to what do I owe the pleasure?"
"I need you to find out everything you can about a cop. She's called Detective Watanabe I need whatever you can find on her. I'll send you the payment for the job later."
"Alright, just give me a few minutes." While he was talking Harold was already hacking into the police force's database. It didn't take him too long to pull up the information he needed since he already established a connection before.

"Sir, I have the info."
"Tell me." Loki continued to stalk Matsuri who was walking at a rather leisurely pace.
"Watanabe Matsuri, age twenty-three years old. Joined the force after graduating high school, has been in the force for nearly six years. Took night classes while doing police work, and has a bachelor's degree in criminology. She is the youngest female detective in the city of Berkton. Has handled thirty cases since becoming a detective and has solved each case. As for her-"
Harold's report was rather long, but it was very detailed, he did leave out some parts to try and shorten the conversation.
"I see, thank you for the information. I will send you the money later." After saying their goodbyes, Loki ended the call.
'I wonder is he going to kill the detective? No, if he wanted to kill her, he could easily do so without trying to get such info.' Harold shook his head as he no longer bothered to think about it since it didn't really matter to him whatever Loki was going to do with the information he gave him.
...
After following Matsuri for a while, she suddenly sprinted forward. Loki was sure that she didn't spot him, but just to be safe Loki increased the distance between them before following. The running Matsuri suddenly tackled the man in front of her.
"What the f*ck are you doing?!" The man shouted drawing the attention of the people nearby. Matsuri then showed the man her badge and replied.
"You're under arrest for stealing this wallet." Matsuri took out a wallet from the man's jacket.
"That's mine!"
"Oh really so you're Michelle Langrid, you're the one in this picture?" Matsuri took out an ID from the wallet and showed it to the man who became silent. It was at that moment a female from the crowd shouted.
"Wait, that's my wallet!"
After that Matsuri returned the wallet to its rightful owner, she called a squad car to bring the man back to the police station. Matsuri didn't go back to the police station in the squad car instead she continued her walk towards the police station.
On her way, Matsuri did various things. She helped an old couple across the street, she helped a child look for her dog, she helped some foreigners who were lost. Matsuri continued to help everyone she saw on the way to the police station.
The more Loki learned about Matsuri, the more he felt that this person was someone he shouldn't kill.

Our Chaoz; Our Reality (Completed)
Everyone has their own reasons, be it past events, personality or simply company. But most at some point divulge themselves into videogaming, be it for entertainment or more compettitive reasons. In this year and age there are many genres of gaming, one specific genre though still holds on tight to the ledge it was pushed to trying to pull itself back up. MMORPGs were once the top of everybody's list, adventure, combat, storytelling and endless grind in one single game. It was a different life for most, as if a parallel world to our own. You could be a knight indulging yourself in combat, a mage expertly crafting spells of mass destruction or creation. A ranger exploring the land and hunting down prey, an assassin completing contracts and hording the spoils. A troll scamming children out of their hard earned 10 gold and making more hardcore players rage quit for the day. Or something else. Kyle was a simple player, he always picked the strangest classes or jobs and his characters almost looked the same. He played for the combat, he played for the grind and he played for his guild but above all he played for the story. Kyle is a roleplayer, one who enjoys the simple parts of this virtual life. Whether his guild was starting a war or ending one he'd always have his drammatic entrence or exit, his decleration of annihalition or demand of surrender. After all that? He divulged himself in the game's story, the interaction with NPCS (Non Player Characters) and their advanced AI. He went through many questlines, many tales of heroics and many more adventurers of legend but one thing always remained true with his character. Kyle absolutely loved to the play the villain. But when game turns reality, what will he and his guild of twisted personalities do?
