Ch#13 Assassination

Jack groaned with pain, when he looked up, what he saw was a burry image of Muzaz slowly walking toward him.

“Pixie why didn’t I see him, how can he be so fast” asked jack

Pixie looked extremely anxious as she looked at jack “master it’s not that he is very fast” she said “it’s just that you were unable to see him, or more specifically your senses were intervened with”

“My senses? But how?” jack transmitted, but when he concentrated his heart went cold he felt that aside from the pressure he felt from Muzaz there was another formless force that specifically targeted his eyes and ears how sinister and ruthless he thought.

“I think that there is someone else here in the crowd, someone with a psychic ability” she said, gravely.

“A psychic?” jack was bewildered “but why would they target me, am I that strong” said jack

“I don’t know” pixie shrugged her shoulders “I think they don’t plan to beat you” she said in an ice cold tone “I think they plan to kill you”

Jack felt completely afraid “kill me? Why”

Pixie glanced back at Musad “I think it has to do with your friend Musad, he doesn’t seem to be of ordinary origins”

“Musad” jack also glanced into Musads direction but all he saw was blurry silhouettes of people clapping cheering and shouting.

“So you are telling me that, he hid something’s from me” said jack

“Probably” replied pixie

Jack sighed as he thought about Musad and his situation well everybody have some secrets he thought also that old man did warn me about this.

Jack bit his tongue in an attempt to sober himself up, he looked towards Muzaz his expression piercing and determined.

“Want to kill me huh” he murmured “well bitch it aint gonna be that easy”

Muzaz looked shocked as he saw jack standing up and looking at him with his piercing gaze, he felt a twinge of wariness toward him… he truly is extraordinary with a strong body and such an impressive will power and a mysterious backing, no wonder Mr. Watson wanted me to kill him, and without any suspicions also sending that psychic over… that guy is truly frightening he shivered as he thought about the psychic… well too bad for you kid no matter what you are going to die today

“Oh you’ve got some ability brat standing up after getting a punch from me” Muzaz said as he approached jack who looked pale with blood dripping from the side of his mouth. A sinister smile etched on his face well brat lets have some fun before we kill you he thought

“Hey pixie the psychic he can’t do anything to you right” asked jack

Pixie looked at jack a bit confused but when she saw his seriousness she nodded” yes, his intervention does not interfere with my sensory abilities” she replied

Jack eyes revealed a hint of excitement as he heard pixie “so, pixie can you predict for me the trajectory of Muzaz next attack” he asked

“well master, although in normal circumstances I might be able to do that by analyzing the movements of energy particles, but right now he is way too far from you and there is also a psychic energy in the surrounding, although it does not interfere with my senses but to calculate the trajectory will be close to impossible” she said

Jacks excitement seemed to have died down “so, you are saying that you can’t?” he questioned

“no master, what I meant was that you are very far form Muzaz if you close the distance between him and you, the interference from the psychic will be much less due to the density of energy particles near Muzaz, so In that case I might be able to predict his blows trajectory, but the downside of that will be that you yourself won’t be able to see Muzaz due to the short distance” she said” but why do you want to know? Would you have found a way out master?” she asked excitedly

Jack looked at his hand which was holding a pitch black pendant his eyes flickering with excitement and determination. “Yes” he transmitted “well maybe, I thought that if this pendant is so legendary it must at least be able to with stand his blows”

Pixies brows were pinched together as she contemplated “hmmm I think master must be right, but I still think that it’s a bad idea” she transmitted

Jack smiled “don’t worry pixie I have a feeling that it will work, just trust your master” he transmitted

“Ok” pixie nodded her tiny head her eyes red with tears “pixie will do her best” she said

“Alright let’s play” jack murmured as he stared at Muzaz, all the talk and planning took a few breaths of time as they were information transmitted through their brains.

“Well kid looking at you, I can see that you have some ability” he said “so considering that I am an magnanimous man I shall give you a chance at living” he said while opening his arm wide looking honest and forgiving

Jack eyes slanted as he snickered, hmnf acting all good and honest, you think I am a dumb donkey to fall in to your trap.

“What do you mean” asked jack looking conflicted

“Hmm a good boy, all you have to do is kowtow to me three times and shout I am a dog that doesn’t know his worth” he said as a cold look appeared in his eyes

Thought so jack murmured

“Alright, do you want me to say it out loud?” asked jack

“Well of course” said Muzaz as he smiled coldly

The surrounding all burst into laughter, as they jeered and threw curses at jack

“That brat is going to get it now” said one of the boys

Jack was just 2 meters away from Muzaz as he felt that the invisible strain on his eyes and ears have been removed “pixie you ready” jack transmitted as he operated his senses to the limit.

“Yes master” pixie said as she clenched her tiny fists.

Jack closed on Muzaz to get a good view of him as he bent down, but instead of kowtowing he spat in front of Muzaz “the fuck do you think you are prick, you want me to kowtow to you, you must be dreaming you piece of sh*t, you want me to be you dog, hmnf why don’t you go and eat my crap” spat jack as he looked straight into Muzaz eyes

Muzaz looked a bit baffled as he heard jack, then a frighteningly cold killing intent burst out of him as he started to pressurize jack

“The f*ck did you say, you want to die… brat” he said coldly

“Why would I” said jack as he sucked in a large breath “ELDER SAVE MEEEEEE!” he shouted

Shit how his voice can be so loud thought Muzaz Got to finish him before the elder comes

Muzaz lunched at jack punching at his head with a full force blow, jack only heard the whistling of the air and a overbearing pressure envelope him his heart shuddered with fear but a cold smile was etched on his face.

“Where” he asked

“At your head master take 2 steps to the right and the trajectory will be to your chest at the pendant” pixie transmitted back

Hearing pixie jack moved two steps to the right making his chest fall into the punch range instead of his head, when the punch connected there was no voice no sound as if it didn’t touch with a body rather a pillow

Jack was blown back as he landed on the ground on both his feet his eyes flashing with excitement it worked it freaking worked he thought

“ELDER HELP MEEEEEE!” jack shouted once more.

Before Muzaz could comprehend what had just happened, he was shook awake by jacks loud shout, so he once again launched himself at jack with a punch aimed at his head but just like before the punch landed on jacks chest and nothing happened, jack was blown away as he landed on the ground with a single foot and a knee to support…

Shit where the elder is, if I am blown one more time even if nothing happens to other parts of my body my legs will definitely break he thought

“ELDER HE IS GOING TO KILL MEEEE!” jack shouted with all his might for a single last effort.
