Ancient Tears BloodLine

Meanwhile, At the Masked Man location.

He asked the Intel about Zack from one of his spies, located in the Red Stone City.

Knowing that Zack returned safely from the Pinewood forests and spies inability to collect more information about him. The Masked Man mood becomes sullen. He then tried to ask some other organizations for Intel. But, it ended in futile. No one got concrete information.

The Information regarding Zack is tightly guarded. It made his will, even more, stronger to kill Zack. The Masked Man is Grim and Cruel. To climb the ladder of power quickly, He will do anything.

Even though his organization demanded him to eliminate all black level threats. But, they didn't care about lesser targets. Targets with low-level threats can be dealt with in the future.

Yet, the Masked Man is due to his brutal, power-hungry, and ego-centric personality. He decided to kill all the people on the kill list.

There is a tactical understanding between all the organizations. If they found out any of such all kill activities leaked to the public domain. That Particular organization is deemed to be removed.

That's why all the organizations had some sense of measure. They won't go for all kill blindly. They only care about black-level threats. Which poses a certain possibility of danger to their organization.

But, the Masked Man didn't care about all these. He had a plan. After this torture fiasco was done. The next day, the masked man decided to kill Zack, instead of hiring Assassin. He hired Hunter.

The Hunter is a rogue one. He makes his living by killing and trading Class 1 Monsters. But, on other hand to make extra money. He does criminal work.

The Masked Man didn't meet the hunter in person. But, he placed the order and wired the credit points to his account.

The Hunter was currently waiting for Zack in his neighborhood.

He didn't wear any expensive tuxedos. Just, A normal attire of a hunter. He didn't even try to conceal anything. A sword mark stretching from the right chin and ending towards his right nostril.

Disheveled black hair with round black eyes. There is a sword scabbard in his back. Anyone with the right eye can discern that he is a hunter. No one will suspect him as a criminal.

The Hunter is an Early-stage Trainee Apprentice Warrior. Reaching close to Mid-level. He is a Fire Elemental Sword user. Right now, he is patiently waiting for Zack at a nearby alley.

Where Zack, usually passes through the alley, to reach for an Air Cab. Then he goes to Train Station via Air cab.

Meanwhile, Zack getting ready in his room.

Yesterday, all my plans went well. Hereafter, I should be working on reaching the perfection stage. I have enough time limit now. Earlier, I thought it would take a minimum of one year to reach Mid-level in lightning Energy Cultivation.

Fortunately, I got a breakthrough within two months after joining the facility. On top of it, the physical limit breakthrough is an added advantage. So, I should strive for better.

After wore my dress. I left my room to have breakfast with the family.

A dining table,

"I feel, There is something different about you, Ever since you started hunting Monster," told Uncle James.

Hearing that, at first, I don't know how to answer it. Whether he felt different about my strength or personality. I couldn't tell. So, I just made a confused look.

Seeing me wondering. Uncle James said, "Forget it, killing certainly changes a person. Whether it's killing a person or Monster."

He couldn't pinpoint, what's the difference he felt from Zack. So, he assumed maybe he got something to do with killing Monster for the first time.

I became relax hearing that. Blood element is not easy. It affects my overall aura. At first, I got the pure natural aura of lightning. Now, it got tangled with blood aura.

Talking about the aura. The image of a certain person appeared in my mind. "I didn't find the girls yesterday. Hope everything will be alright with them." I commented in my heart.

After having some hearty conversation with Granny and Uncle. I left home.

I am walking casually through a small narrow alley. While humming a favorite tune. Suddenly I noticed there were no people around me. Usually, I find one or two folks walk by here.

"That's, a bit unusual" I doubted in my heart. I continued my pace without thinking much about it.

Soon, I walked past a man. Judging by his appearance, I suppose he is a hunter. As I was walking down the alley. Suddenly, my perception turned on perceiving immediate danger.

Seeing Zack walked past him. The hunter made his move. He slowly drew a sword from his back. Then He move towards him and slashed downward with the sword.

This was all happened within moments.

Due to perception. I sidestepped enough to evade this attack. The Sword's blade slashed an empty air.

Before the hunter could respond, I decided to attack.

I threw my right fist out in a powerful punch at his right jaw. Cracking sounds of bones could be heard from his mouth.

The hunter felt an agonizing pain. This quick blow made him stunned for a moment. Seeing that, I didn't give him any space to react.

I made a simple kick to the hunter's stomach. The right leg Kick was filled with pure physical power. A small grunt escaped his mouth as the hunter felt head spitting pain.

The kick sent him rolling backward. His internal organs were smashed due to that Powerful Kick, after that blow, the hunter left with half-consciousness.

Then I slowly walk towards his half-consciousness body. After yesterday's fortune. I never thought, today someone sent here to kill me.

Looking at the hunter. "He is no way near to the Assassin that Uncle James described" I commented in my heart.

Looking at his sword mark face. I had some suspiciousness in my heart. He may be at the Mid-level of Trainee Apprentice. I decided to call Uncle James over here.

Soon, Uncle James came. I explained the total ordeal to him.

He too was confused, knowing the hunter's action. "Why would hunter attack him, is that some kind of robbery or actual assassin attempt in disguise?" Uncle James commented in his heart.

He decided to hand over this hunter to Sir Lowell McClain.

After this fiasco. I continued my journey towards the training facility. It didn't even affect me. Rather I felt happier. I dismantled him with sheer physical prowess. There is no need for elemental energy to defeat him.

Initially, I had some reservations. Whether to use it or not. But, still, it is a human inhabitant area. Not a Monsters roaming outskirts.

There is a possibility of I can easily spy upon and my secrecy of lightning element will get exposed. Fortunately, it didn't happen that way.

Sometimes later, I reached the training facility. And continued my routine as usual.

Meanwhile, Seeing Zack left the alley. Uncle James took back this hunter to the office base. There is ARMY Federation's interrogation room facility available.

On the way, He reported everything in an encrypted message to Sir Lowell McClain.

Sir Lowell McClain's men. The beggar was still at Pinewood city.

The beggar got entangled in some other matter. So, he didn't present, where this small incident happened. Upon hearing the details from Sir Lowell McClain.

He quickly made his way to the Red Stone City to continue to watch over Zack. For the following two days, he is been tracking trails of Assassin Ed.

But, Unfortunately, Assassin Ed slipped away successfully.

After arriving at the interrogation room. Mr. James didn't give him any medical treatment. He ceased the hunter's belonging for inspection.

He gave the hunter's sci-fi watch to his team. To analyze digital data from it.

Soon, the team finds some incriminating evidence. There is some details of the shady transaction were found in the digital data.

It's not easy for outsiders to access sci-fi matches.

Other than the user, No one can have access to privacy. But, when comes to a certain organization. They have some high-tech equipment to gather details without tampering with anything in it.

After knowing the transaction amount. Mr. James confirmed his thoughts. This was paid by someone to kill Zack. But, it's impossible to find the sender. There were 50,000 credit points were wired to hunter's account this morning.

The Master's mind made deal with the hunter to test the water. Hereafter, I fear there will be more attacks on Zack. Seeing that he successfully foiled their plan. They will send more powerful warriors to kill him.

I hope Sir Lowell McClain must have made some arrangements to safeguard him. After that, the Hunter got imprisoned in this facility.

Meanwhile, yesterday.

Maria Frazier, after successfully killing the RED DAGGER FISH. She left the waterfall city. But, most of her time was gone by traveling.

Unlike, Zack She spent an extra day traveling. On the way, she didn't encounter any mishaps. Due to that she finally reached her home without any worries.

Today, while Zack is faced with an assassin attempt. On other hand, Maria came leisurely to the training facility. It was noontime. Upon arriving at the training Hall. She spotted Zack. She asked with a smile on her face.

"Zack, are you done with your assignment?"

I was preparing to enter the basic gravity chamber.. Suddenly, my lips curved a little hearing the same old annoying voice.
