Assassination System-Chapter 49 Charlotte's Feelings

Daybreak ended and the sun illuminated the entire world. Dan who kept trailing Charlotte finally stopped when he realized that she took a break and removed her robe from her body. Taking a plate-like object from her Spatial Storage Device, she infused it with her Qi as resplendent lights flew from the plate and struck her face.

When the light dissipated into her face, Dan could see her figure visibly transforming. From a beautiful young woman, she became a woman whose visual appearance looked like she was in her mid-twenties. After transforming, she took her clothes off and Dan who observed her from the side momentarily looked away.

After the rustling of clothes from her direction, ended. Dan turned around and found a young auntie whose visage didn't look too beautiful nor ugly. In fact, her eyes that shone in a light of tenderness could fool anyone if they didn't know about her transformation.

Charlotte calmly walked away from the secluded area and she continued her journey. She eventually stumbled upon a small village where numerous kids could be seen playing on the streets. The children drew a line on the ground and they happily skipped over it while humming a tune.

"Look! Sister Vanessa is here!" One of the children shouted and all of them turned around as they ran towards Vanessa, all the while carrying a smile on their faces.

Witnessing the smiles on the children's face, Vanessa couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, don't worry, this time, Sister bought many candies so all of you guys can eat..." She took a small pouch from her bag and handed over small white candies that looked like hardened condensed milk.

The children happily ate and Vanessa rubbed their head, one by one. A small smile lifted on her lips as she talked with the little kids. Her previous haughty and cold countenance replaced with an innocent and adorable one as she told the children some stories and tales.

Soon, the temperature that descended from the sun, intensified and the children have to go back to their village to eat some lunch. Vanessa bid them all farewell and promised that she would definitely be back for tomorrow and she would bring more candies for them to eat.

Dusting her clothes, Vanessa turned around to leave, her footsteps quick and she returned back to the secluded area where she transformed. But this time, she didn't return to her previous visage. Instead, she looked at the nearby shrubs and coldly said, "Bastard that kept following me all this while, you better come out and explain yourself!"

Dan who sat atop a tree branch shivered. But when he realized that she wasn't looking at him, he calmed down and followed her line of sight wherein a figure of a young man whose visual appearance looked sixteen to seventeen, appeared.

The young man looked average and his clothes that looked faded gave him the impression of a teenage farm boy inside the village. However, when he stepped forward, a vicious smile lifted on his lips as he clapped his hands together.

Dan's expression changed, he realized that the young man's movements looked stiff and mechanical and his arms that he raised in the air were encircled with flies, staring at the young man's smile and his emotionless eyes, Dan concluded in his mind, "It's a zombie! Could this be the work of that Necromancer?" Dan calmed himself, but still, he took his dagger and Desert Eagle and aimed the handgun at the young man.

"Young Princess of the Paradyne Clan, you already know that I am pursuing you but instead of running away, you stayed here and waited for us to encircle you..." The young man spoke in a hoarse voice.

Charlotte sneered, "I still haven't forgotten the fact that you bastards tried to cause a disaster inside the city...Ever since such a huge attack occurred, I already knew that it should be me that is your target..." A soft sword materialized in the air, and when it landed in Charlotte's palm. It hummed in excitement as she pointed it at the young man.

"As someone who possessed the Physique that we wanted, It's of course, you that is our target." The young man waved his hand and Dan could see that for a moment. The world turned monochrome and seemed to freeze.

"I shall not waste any more words towards you that will soon be dead, my minions, attack! Remember the formation!" With his command, the earth trembled as countless hands stuck out, under the ground. Charlotte calmly stood there, with her expression indifferent, awaiting the emergence of the undead troops.

The undead that the young man summoned composed of people clad in an ominous jet-black energy. And when they emerged from the ground, they hastily formed a diamond-like formation that rotated as they walked. Dan's expression turned solemn, One of the incredible traits of the undead was their inability to feel pain nor any emotions. In other words, they were the perfect meatshields or weapons of murder.

The huge disadvantage that the undead had was that they had an abysmal intelligence. But witnessing these group of undead, Dan could feel that each of their movements was calculated and that they should not be underestimated.

His eyebrows knitted, despite the fact that she was surrounded by a group of intelligent undead, Charlotte remained calm, just what was her trump card what did she rely on to maintain that state of mind despite such dire circumstances?

Dan kept his worries to himself and observed the fight.

As soon as the undead approached the area around Charlotte, silvery sword lights flashed and the limbs of the approaching enemies fell on the ground. The troop grounded to a halt, but when Dan thought that everything was over. That eerie black energy connected the limps from the severed area and the troop, once again stood up, rushing towards Charlotte's direction.

Several minutes passed and Charlotte finally felt the exhaustion from fighting a troop that could not die nor feel pain, holding a jadeslip in her palm, she crushed it, but her expression turned pale when she realized that her teleportation device didn't work.

"Hahaha," The young man viciously laughed, "Don't be so cold, Little Princess, I already sealed the surrounding space so that any spatial device couldn't tear through it, any escaping artifact that you have is useless inside this space..." The young man even leaned on a nearby tree and watched Charlotte, fall into despair as minutes passed by.

Another fifteen minutes later, Charlotte finally took her trump cards in the form of a plate and tapped on it. As soon as she pressed the plate, it flew up in the air and deflected all the incoming undead away as a transparent barrier separated her from the outside.

"Futile..." The young man coldly spat and he personally made his move, disappearing from his initial location, he appeared above the barrier and sent a palm strike.

Clang!

A sound of a dull object striking metal echoed and as soon as it reverberated. The barrier cracked and eventually collapsed to pieces with Charlotte coughing blood as she staggered. Holding her soft sword, she sliced the undead around her, but still, she became overwhelmed and when the young man noticed that she couldn't fight back anymore, he lightly chuckled and reappeared before her.

Dan whose expression looked pale with his forehead sweating bullets finally heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that the young man's perception retracted inside her body. The reason why he didn't intervene in the fight earlier was that the young man kept a revolving barrier around him and Charlotte which would trigger upon detecting any foreign movements.

But now that he took that barrier away. It was time for Dan to show him the horror of Modern Weaponry.

Infusing his Desert Eagle with his Yang Rich Thunder Qi, Dan carefully aimed at the young man and pulled.

Bang!
