《The Compassionate Killer and his travels in a new world》Chapter 1: Reincarnation
Advertisement
[So this is it huh...]
I thought to myself as I lay powerless in the cold hard floor of my home. Around me is all of my closest friends well they were my closest friends. I understand they hate me because I'm too compassionate for an assasin. Well it's not like I wanted to be one anyway. it just so happened that this was the only thing I'm good at and that I'm not that hellbent on killing.
But even so it seems not everyone would like a compassionate killer.
Unlike them I would change targets in the middle of a mission if I feel like it. Technically even the agency is pretty annoyed by me but the fact still remains that among everyone else I'm the person who could do any job perfectly. I think that's why I made many enemies but one person can't change the world.
"Allen you finally accept you're end huh"
It's Drake huh... he's the one second to me and if I have to measure his strength it would be way lower than mine. If he went to me by himself I could have easily got over this but the whole organization is trying to destroy me right now. But I'll just use this as my chance to do something good for this world.
"Well... you do remember the assasins last resort right"
Hearing my words he seems to have noticed it and immediately signalled everyone to retreat
"It's a trap!"
Everyone rushed to the exit but they followed me deep inside my base of operations how could they have not realized it a whie ago? Do they think I am that stupid? Oh well
"too late"
And with that my world was engulfed in flames and the mournful wails of my former comrades were swallowed up by the raging inferno. Though after this if there really is an afterlife I'm pretty sure all of us would all fall into the same fiery pit called hell.
I felt my hands, I could move my fingers. My eyes are heavy but it's not something willpower can't solve.
Opening my eyes through sheer willpower I am amazed at the sight in front of me. It was a space that was completely white. There was a table and stool with a complete tea set. I'm begging to doubt whether or not god does exist. But if this really is heaven then god must be a very classy character.
"So you finally woke up"
There I heard it, that was pretty shocking. the voice didn't sound male or female, deep or high. it was like a voice of a million people simply put I can't describe it. Looking at the source I see a silhouette it purely white the shocking thing is that although it's surroundings are white I can still distinguish it from the surroundings.
"Uhm so you must be..."

"God, well that's what most people call me"
"Oh then if you're not god what are you?"
"I didn't say I am not god though"
"Now you're not making any sense"
It seems like this being has some screws loose but if anything I'm already pretty accustomed to it. But what shocked me is that I can't feel anything from it. Through the years of being an assasin I already heightened my senses so that I could feel the presence of anything a few meters away. But this being I can't grasp him at all.
"Stop trying, I may very well not be god but I am more powerful than you can ever think"
"Then if that's the case what is all this for and is this by any chance heaven?"
The being walked to the table and sat on the stool. He picked up the pot and started pouring what looks to be green tea into the cups.
"Come on take a seat"
The voice was still hard to decipher but I know that it was in a way delighted or should I say enthusiastic. Anyway I don't sea any way it would want to harm me. It is something I know is way out of my league so I should just accept his invitation. I walked to one of the stools and picked up the cup and took a sip.
"Delicious"
This is my genuine thoughts, it really is delicious. I thought it was green tea but the flavor was a thousand no a million times more delicous. Also the tea had some sort of soothing effect and I felt a lot more refreshed.
Then I looked at the being and realized that he simply stared at me without touching the cup. It's not like poisoning me will do any good after I'm already dead but...
"Don't worry this tea is something that increases the soul's strength"
Oh so that's it, for someone powerful drinking this is like drinking water but to me it's like I just drank water after being completely dehydrated.
"So I'm sure you're curios as to where this is, am I right?"
"Well pretty much, yeah"
So it's time to know what's happening huh. It's not like anything will shock me.
"Well then since our time is almost up I'll tell you the gist of it"
"Isn't that too irresponsible for you?"
In his eyes it may just be some random encounter or small matter but to me it's about my very existence. This is not a matter to be so carefree with. He should at least tell me about himself but before I could retort any further he began his explanation.
"So well, there is this world that is going into chaos and I want you to be the one to fix this. Don't worry I will give you all the neccesary things that you need to do this. Well the world is not in any apocalyptic state but it's about the inhabitants. All you need to do is make a real peace between the races. Also you don't need to dedicate yourself to this. You could just do as you did in your past world where you kept balance in the shadows"

"So you want me to fix your mistake am I right"
"You could say it like that, well anyways that's all. Good luck and goodbye"
"Wait a moment!"
Just as I said that the whole space began to distort and I was suddenly floating in a dark void. Then in the middle of that void two lights flashed and the next moment I lost consciousness.
Once again I feel my body but unlike before it was not heavy but cold. I opened my eyes and realized that I was floating in water.
[This is not a dream right?]
I thought to myself as I pinched my cheeks and bit my lips.
[This is real]
The pain was real I could still feel the sting from biting my lips and my cheeks were still hurting from my pinches. Well at least now I'm sure that this is all real. But the problem now is that I am floating in water. I tasted the water and it wasn't salty. Now I'm sure that I am not standed at sea or anything of that sort. So I took a swimming stance and head north.
"This sucks"
I was reincarnated but why did I need to be in the middle of a lake anyway? Normally shouldn't it be as a baby or in the body of another person. This feels more like I was transported to this world but the thing is that I was killed. What's more my body no not only my body even the clothes were those I wore when I died. Well it's not as tattered or ripped as it was but it's still the same black suit with a the black coat I had custome made with a hood. Checking the pockets my guns were all gone but I still had a lot of my knives. Well I am more of a knife user man so this is not a problem but... this clothes are just to embarrasing.
"grrr"
Just as I was going to take of my clothes to dry them I heard a growl from the forest. I felt a presence and this is not of any wild animal I had encountered before. Feeling the bloodlust I instinctively took a dagger from my pocket and went into a fighting stance. Just as I did a shadow pounced on me from the bushes upfront.
"Whoa"
I jumped back and evaded it's claws by only a hairs breadth but still this thing is really not an animal I know of. It looks like a wolf but it was as big as a bear and it's eyes were glowing red with an ominous light. Also it's body was covered in beautiful silver fur, if you remove it's ferocious expression and make it look like an obedient dog I reckon it would be really cute. But right now it was obviously hungry and it's prey is obviously me.
"I really don't want to do this but you forced me!"
Althoug it was big I had confidence in my skill. I may not be able to fight against a large group by myself but a one on one is simple. I dashed towards it and it did the same, as I suspected although it looks to be evolved it's still an animal huh. When I was only a few inches from it's claws I move my body to the side a little dodging it again by a hairs bredth but now I raised my knife and stabbed it to the side of it's neck. The knif was made out of an alloy I experimented on. I called it Slerion, it is harder than steel and has high conductivity. Using it I made it so sharp it could cut through iron like butter. But like most things it could need the strength to back it up.
With my maneuver although I only wasted a small amount of energy I was able to make a huge cut on the body of the beast. I just used it's power against it, the best weapon is you enemies strength that is my way of fighting. But I only do this against enemies I could outsmart like this beast. I I were against a human it wouldn't have jumped and dashed instead. After all if you leaped towards your enemy you're simply giving you life away. As you don't have a foothold in the air you could use to adjust your body.
"Well now I will need to clean it;s body quick. I could just leave it's meat and innards but I will take it's fur"
This may seem stupid to some but to me hunting is pretty easy. What I need now is not food but clothing and it's fur is really cumfy. I could make leather out of it's skin and make a bed out of it's fur or a coat. Well anyways I'm taking the fur.
After skinning the beast I immediately run away. Well the first day is like this so what should I do next. I should first make a shelter then get food. Making it close to the lake is better as it's a fresh water reservior but this is also a waterting hole for many animals. Then it's settled I will make base camp near this lake. It may sound stupid but it there is an enemy I would just kill it if I can't I'd run away pretty simple. Well time to make a shelter then.
