The Return Of The God Level Assassin

LUO YAN thought that the maid would go to some nefarious spot in the manor filled with dead bodies of young girls where the ’real’ master was, but instead she went to the kitchen. She started a fire and then took out a big pot. She filled the pot with water and then put it on top of the fire. Then she took some vegetables from the pantry and started chopping it. Her movements were mechanical, as if she was a robot or something.

She put the chopped vegetables on the pot. Then added some spices and other condiments in. She mixed the contents inside using a laddle. Was she perhaps making some kind of stew?

But who was she cooking for? All the residents of the manor were either dead or missing. Could it be for that ’real’ master? Wait- he shouldn’t let go of the possibility that the maid was somehow transformed into the master of the manor. After all, she seemed to be the only one here.

But before he could analyze things deeply, he noticed that the effect of the Invisibility Cloak was coming to an end. He looked around and searched for a place to hide. He saw a cabinet full of plates near the entrance of the kitchen. There was a space in between that was enough for an a.d.u.l.t male to hide. It was also a blind spot where the maid wouldn’t easily see if there was someone hiding there. So he walked over there and hid carefully.

He looked back at the maid to see what she’s doing. She walked towards a box. He guessed that it might be some kind of storage for meat or some other similar things. She’s probably planning to get some meat for that stew she’s cooking. But what Luo Yan didn’t expect was the kind of meat it was.

The maid took a long slender hand from the box. Yes, hand. Human hand. Blood was still dripping from where it was severed. Obviously, the hand was freshly severed from its owner’s body. By the density of the muscles and how delicate looking the hand was, it’s obvious that it belonged to a teenage girl. Most probably the girl who just went missing yesterday.

So, was this the ending of all those missing girls? Being chopped into pieces and then cooked by this maid?

The maid put the hand on the chopping board. She took a butcher’s knife and chopped it down. The moment of impact, Luo Yan could hear crisp sound of a bone being cut. Everytime the maid chopped a piece of the hand, that crisp sound continued echoing in the silent kitchen. Making it the only sound in this eerie manor.

Blood splattered from the hand to the area around the chopping board and even onto the face of the maid. But the maid seemed to not notice it and just continued on what she’s doing. When she’s done, she put the chopped pieced of the hand onto the pot and started stirring it. After that, she put a lid on the pot and went again to the box where she took the severed hand.

This time, she took a piece of human leg. The same as the hand, she started chopping the leg. But this time, after she’s done, instead of putting the chopped pieces in the pot, she put it on a meat grinder. Probably to make a home made sausage.

Luo Yan cringed. Could this be any more gory? Seriously, what was the game designers thinking when they were designing this task? Did they just finish watching some kind of horror film before they designed this task and thus was inspired? If he was the type that was easy to be scared, he would have already quit this task.

Five minutes had already passed and he could used the Invisibility Cloak again. But Luo Yan decided not to and continued his spying from behind the cabinet. He could only used it one more time. It would be better to do so once the maid finished cooking and deliver the food to whoever was going to eat them.

Yes, Luo Yan already thought of the possibility that the food the maid was cooking was most probably for someone. And that someone was definitely the one who hi-jacked this manor and became its master. The meaning of ’master’ in this context was probably the one who took overall control of the manor. The owner was dead and so was the other servants. Miss Jewel and that other maid was missing. The only one left was this maid.

But looking at the mechanical movement of this maid, she was most probably being controlled by something. Seeing how she’s cooking human meat, there’s no way it’s for a normal person. And if Luo Yan was right that the maid was being controlled, then this ’master’ was definitely some kind of monster.

It would be good if it was. Killing a human boss would be uncomfortable. Even for him.

When the maid finished cooking, one hour had already passed since Luo Yan started this task. The maid put the finished dishes on a trolley and pushed it out of the kitchen. He immediately put on the Invisibility Cloak and followed the maid.

While following, Luo Yan couldn’t help but think what could have happened if he didn’t investigate first at the village and just went straight here. Once he found the corpses, he’d probably just readily assume that the maid was his main target and then kill her. Which would probably lead to him failing. After all, the task only asked him to kill the real master of the manor.

When the maid reached a certain part of the manor, she stopped. She bent down and then opened a trap door. It was very insconpicuous. If one didn’t look carefully, they wouldn’t be able to see it. Luo Yan, who was hovering behind, saw stairs. The trap door probably lead to a bas.e.m.e.nt.
