《Professional Killer's Death Was Temporarily Postponed》Chapter 8:Escape
Advertisement
[9:00 A.M.,April 6,2031 in United of Armed and Forces Main Prison]
Since George told me to stay here in this prison,I just couldn't but to sit at the bed.
Actually,I also want to see what happen in the main basement.So I need to escape.Though I don't have idea how will I do it.
Meanwhile,the one who is guarding the door,I mean the one who is guarding me here is still there.It feels like he didn't care what is happening at the basement.So I called him.
"Hey,will you not check what is happening?"
"....."
He didn't answer.It was already expected since he really doesn't talk that much.
This person is already guarding me here for almost a year.And it seems like every year,for unknown reasons,they are replacing the one who is guarding me.
The I manage to talked about the last two who guard me,but this one is different.No matter what I asked or what I talked,he really didn't answer me.
But one time when George talked to him,he spoke up.It's feels like he hate me.
He is just standing there,like a mannequin.
But then suddenly,he spoke up to me for the first time since he was assigned here.
"What you will gonna do in this situation,Mr.Murderer?"
Mr.Murderer?.What a suiting nickname.
"So you finally speak to me huh.Well,I also like to know what is happening in the basement right now.But of course,I will not be able to do it as long as I'm here in this prison."
I need first to escape this prison first.
"Hey,Mr.Murderer,did you want to kill again?."
The guard brought up a very surprising topic to me which I didn't expect.

"Why are you asking?"
"Just answer my question."
"So you will not be going easy to me huh.You see,that the moment when I was arrested and imprisoned here 3 years ago,I promise that I will never kill again."
I answer his question with full honesty.Maybe for that way,he let me to free me up in this prison.
"Are you scared to die,Mr.Murderer?."
I will just continue to answer.
"No.not really.I can die anytime."
"I see."
After the guard said that,to surprise,he pulled out his gun,point it to me and said:
"So you don't mind if I kill you right here?"
"I don't mind.Personally,I want to end my life with the gun."
That was actually true.I really want to end my life being shot by a gun.
"I see.Then I hope you Satan in the Hell."
After he said that,he pulled the trigger.A gunshot was made.
But it didn't HIT me.
The one he shot is actually my bed.
"I thought you will gonna kill me?"
"You are really professional killer,Mr.Murderer."
The guard approach me,keep back his gun to his jacket,pulled out the jail's key and OPEN it.
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yeah.It may cause me to resignation but I don't care anymore since my 'contract' here will gonna end soon."
After he said that,I go out in the prison and asked a question to the guard.
"Before I go,what your name?Well,I don't need to intrduced myself anymore since you may already it while I'm to George."
"White.That's my name."
"You also have a weird name like me,White."

"Well I'm not sure about that.Mr.Holiday.
Before I leave White,I said probably a very touching line.
"If we have connection,let's meet again,White."
"I'm sure we will meet again in the future,Mr.Murderer."
With that,I left White.
I walk to the path towards to the main basement.
While walking,I saw some dead body in the floor.Specifically,some masked-man who has wound with their necks.
"Did George do that?."
He was probably the one who killed them.Meaning,they are the intruders.
When I about to turn with direction,I was approach by a masked-man,holding AK-47,pointing at me.
What should I do?Should I fight here,or ignored this man.Suddenly,the masked man(it was actually an anti-smoke masked)spoke in the walkie talkie in his shoulder.
"I already found him,Boss."
It seems he is talking to someone in the walkie talkie.It is the perfect to defeat this man.
Just when the moment where he will turn in his head to me,I immediately grab the tip of AK-47,spin around a little bit,and give him a flying kick in the head.After a couple of seconds,he lose hia conciousness.
Usually,if I kick someone,they are usually already dead.But since I adjusted the force and the impact a little bit,it just made them lose conciousness.
There's no point in killing this masked man.I mean I promise I will never kill again.
The walkie talkie in his shoulder spoke up,saying:
"Tell him that THINKER is waiting at the main basement."
Silence was happened after that reply.Then a couple of moments later,the walkie talkie spoke again.
"Hello?Hello?"
Then finally it stopped responding.
Thinker.I'm still remember that name.After all,he was also a member of that 'professional killer's group.'
I thought he already died a long time ago,but to think we will meet again for a long time.Fate is really a mysterious thing.
Maybe the reason why he was still alive is to settle things to him.
I ignored the unconciousness man but I pick up the small gun in his jacket and put it in my own jacket.I might be used later.
Then I proceed to the main basement.
I walk.And walk.And walk.Until I reach the main basement.There,what approach is what I expected.
The large hole in the wall,probably this is where the exploaion happen.There is also many dead body in the floor.Then there is also the Head Chief.Hmmmm.Wait.What?.He was curled up,if I'm not wrong,with a time bomb!.
Then lastly,the man with mask,surely is Thinker pointing a gun to the person who almost lying in the floor.I'm sure he was George.He was also holding his stomach.He was probably kicked by Thinker.
Anyways,it is time join the party and end it.So I spoke up:
"Can you remove that mask,Thinker?"
I paused a little bit,and followed it with:
"And George,why are you in a state like that?.I thought you are one of the leaders in this organization."

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
