Hitman with a Badass System

chapter-137
Inside Michael's house, the trio was laying on the sofa, munching on the egg rolls Raylene prepared for them as snacks. The baby dragon was clutching onto its roll, fretting that Gaya would steal it from him.
Both of them just came back home after getting their job done. Fortunately, the glassmakers kept extra custom-made glasses to sell on the sidelines, therefore, she was able to buy the glasses from them and personally deliver them to Fovar, resuming the construction work. Michael on the other hand, went to Bradford searching for the branch manager of Ruby Cuisine, his one major competitor. Considering the holy guards, members of the guardian guild, and soldiers were swarming the city, the branch manager came to oversee the business personally. This enabled Michael to disguise himself as passing by and place a surveillance bug he bought from the system on the branch manager. Now he had to link the bug to the monitoring orb. They were already using the monitoring orb to monitor the Orc in the Abyssal.
"Give me the orb I gave you" She was keeping the orb in the linked space ring, she flicked her wrist as a white orb filled with smoke appeared on the table before them. The baby dragon let out a hissing sound in a momentary surprise before turning his focus on the roll in his claws.
The next moment, Michael placed his hand on the orb, willing the system to establish a connection between the monitoring orb and the bug he placed.
[Connection successfully established!]After he heard the system's now not so robotic voice, the white smoke inside the orb slowly faded away to reveal a neatly organized room.On the orb, Michael and Gaya saw a pair of hands up close, writing reports under the candlelight. The pair of hands belonged to the branch manager, thanks to the bug, they would see anything he sees, listen to anything he listens.
For Michael, it reminded him of the first-person games he played back on earth.
"You didn't place anything on me right?" Following the branch manager, Michael willed the orb to show the Orc. Gaya placed a bug on the Orc exactly like the bug Michael placed on the branch manager and also, with Michael's help, she drew symbols on the walls around the Orc. These symbols were practically like the CCTV cameras, they recorded the Orc's room, sending a live feed to the monitoring orb.
At the moment, they could see the Orc scribbling and reading parchments. Gaya bought him those parchments as he wanted them to summon Netherels into this world.
"I still don't trust that Orc, human," said Gaya, creasing her brows.
"We don't need to trust him, we just need his ability to summon Netherels"
After the system went haywire when he tried to recruit the Orc as his subordinate, he ultimately decided not to try that again. That didn't mean he had no ways to make sure the Orc stays in line. As far as the Orc serves him loyally, Michael would give the Orc a seat in the organization in the future, if he didn't, he would simply kill the Orc and be done with him, after all, killing Netherels was not only the way he could gain experience points."Alright, it's time I met the Orc again"
"Huhu" realizing they were preparing to go to a new place, the baby dragon excitedly bounced up and down,
"Sorry baby dragon, I can't bring you with me yet, for now, stay with Sect Leader Claire"
"Huuuuuu" the baby dragon protested but ultimately he nodded like an obedient child.
"Good boy" Michael patted on his scaly head. He then took the baby dragon with him to drop him off at Claire's home before going to the dark forest.
*************************
"Lord Lucifer, Your Highness" Michael was sitting on his Abyssal throne when Dular came to greet him, Gaya stood beside Michael wearing the female version of Lucifer's suit of armor.
Seeing the two pairs of red eyes staring straight at him, Dular couldn't help but shiver in fear. Dular sensed the overwhelming power of a Core Formation level 8 warrior radiating from the woman who called herself the 'Dark Queen', hence he addressed her as 'Your Highness'
Michael kept gently tapping the dwarven skull attached to the throne's handle, "Dular, how many Netherels are you able to summon here?" Even without any fear toxin, the voice of Lucifer sent a chill crawling through Dular's spine.
"Thi...thirty Netherels, Lord Lucifer" Dular sturred, afraid of disappointing the devil in front of him. Unlike the Dark Queen beside Lucifer, Dular was unable to sense Lucifer's cultivation level, only a handful of experts were able to hide their cultivation level completely, which meant Lucifer is one of those powerhouses.
When Michael upgraded the system to version 2, the Masking function's duration was 10minutes.In version 3, the system was able to mask his cultivation for 20minutes with a cool-down period of 30 minutes.
"Their level?"
"Body strengthening stage, I can summon level 7 Netherels"
"7000 for each Netherel, 210000" Just when he was grinning behind the mask in glee, Dular opened his mouth to ruin the moment,
"For once a month, Lord Lucifer"
"Incompetent!" The moment these words escaped Dular's mouth, he was pulled by a force towards Dark Queen. She grabbed him by the neck, lifting him in the sky,
"Your...Your Highness...anything...more-"
"Let him speak, Queen" Michael liked the name 'Dark Queen'.In the future, when he starts his shadow organization, he would be known as Dark Lord Lucifer while she would be known as 'Dark Queen'
After Michael's order, Dular was thrown away by Gaya like a pebble. Dular slowly picked himself up, cursing the woman in his heart.
"State your reason, Dular," Michael asked without showing his disappointment in his tone.
"Anything...Summoning more than thirty Netherels in a month would alert the Guardians, Lord Lucifer. Somehow, they can detect the trace of the summoning magic" Dular explained the reason, it was a damn good reason. Though Michael was disappointed at the fact he could only earn 210,000 Experience points plus the experience points from absorbing the cores, he decided not to take any chances in greed and get caught by the Guardians. Besides, with this amount of Experience points, he would be able to level up every one or two months.
[You're too greedy host]
"Shut up system" he scowled back at the system in his mind after hearing its snarky comment.
"How long will it take to summon the Netherels?"
"The ritual will take thirty to forty minus, Lord Lucifer"
"Start the ritual in one of the halls here, go" he dismissed Dular with a wave of his hands. After Dular disappeared from his sight, he willed the system to turn off the masking function.
"Thirty Netherels, is this enough for you to get stronger? What if we mess with his mind and exchange him for a huge ass pile of gold?" She suggested licking her lips inside the mask.
"It's enough, Queen. That Orc is worth way more than any amount of gold" she sighed and nodded. In her mind, he would be ever wrong and even if he asked her to follow him into the deepest of hell, she would follow him asking no question.
"When are you planning to give me one like that?" her eyes were locked onto the black metal coils around his wrist. These coils were not just coils but superconductors that had zero resistance to electrical flow. By sending the electricity created by the spell Ignitia through these superconducting coils and with the help of the system, he was able to create a super magnet which was how Michael pulled from the hands of Vandan's men.
"I need a new weapon System, I can't be seen using a sword" he entered the system store to buy a weapon to use when he turns into Lucifer.
[what kind of weapon are you looking for, host?]
"Not a sword but I should be able to utilize my sword mastery when using this weapon" hearing Michael's preferences, the system began its search. Soon, a glow appeared in front of Michael's eyes as the glow slowly turned into a weapon, a Warhammer.
The Warhammer in front of him was made of entirely black metal. It possessed one blunt dented face with a sharp beak on the opposite side of the blunt face. The Warhammer looked heavy and the glowing inscriptions, runes, and symbols on its surface gave a deadly look to the hammer.
Weapon Name: Doombringer (Heavey)
Class: Rare
Upgrade Requirements: 3-star Blacksmith, 3-star Runemaster, Ostium ore, the blood of a forest dragon, Underworld Fire Core / Ancient Ice Core
Price: 14000 badass points
[Does the host wish to buy the Doombringer?]
[Host can trail use the weapon for ten minutes]
A golden notification box with blue letters appeared in front of him, his eyes widened in surprise.
"System, make the Warhammer look old, ancient, and put it somewhere in my room?"
[So Gaya won't suspect where the Doombringer comes from?]
"Yes"
[then it will be 14500 badass points] The system sounded extremely excited for some reason.
"Do it" Michael long lost his drive to bitch with the system as he calmly said.
After exiting the system, he looked up at Gaya, "Go and make sure Dular isn't trying anything funny"
"What're you gonna do?"
"I'll be in my room, casting the masking spell on myself again"
"Don't take longer or I'll start killing them, hehe" she teased him before leaving the throne hall to find Dular.
I hope you like Lucifer's new weapon but if you feel slightly disappointed(i hope you're not) don't worry, check out the required materials to upgrade the Warhammer…...
