Fantasy Assassin in a modern world-Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Attack

Loki obviously noticed that the two people were staring at him, but he wasn’t bothered. If he were in the same position as them he would also doubt the unknown newcomer.

‘Well they can speculate whatever they want, I’ll just start scanning these books get a little bit of info then pick the best one.’

Loki went to one of the bookshelves and started to scan the first book he saw. He did a quick scan of the book and flipped through the pages what he saw made him frown.

‘The contents of this book are incomplete, it’s only an introduction to what the skill was about. Are all the books like this?’

Loki started flipping through the other books one by one and all of them were the same only the introduction of the skill was there.

‘These aren’t the original books... I should’ve guessed that it would be like this, how could they openly display the books and not fear people with an eidetic memory. Tsk, I was excited for nothing. Never mind, I better stop thinking about else I feel worse about it.’

Loki continued his search as he wanted to find a suitable offensive skill. At the moment his strongest attack was using the ‘Enhancement’ spell on his weapons. Currently, that was enough to kill rank seven martial artists and at most he could probably kill a rank eight martial artist, but beyond that, he wasn’t sure. Loki didn’t like the feeling that there were things out there that he couldn’t kill.

.....

Even though his sister really didn’t like the job of an assassin, and Loki himself wasn’t that fond of it as well, but he was also a little prideful of being the best at it. Back in his old world, many had claimed that he as the legendary assassin Fade could kill anything and anyone. Even Loki believed that for as long as something was alive that would mean he could kill it.

...

While Loki was concentrating on quickly scanning through the skill books, the Twin Stars were still staring at him. The two of them were trying their best to figure out who this person was. Since he was here on the second floor that would mean that this person was at least a rank seven martial artist like them. So someone who was so young and powerful shouldn’t be an unknown person.

As the two of them were the most famous geniuses of Zothril they had met most of the other geniuses during the tournament, and even those geniuses that didn’t join the tournament. Yet they couldn’t recall who Loki was.

‘Is it possible that he’s a new rising genius of some sect?... Hmm, still to be able to get this stage he should have some kind of achievements but I really can’t remember there being such a genius.’

While Ye Rong was deep in thought he saw that Liu Yue had already approached Loki. Unlike, Ye Rong who liked to complicate things, Liu Yue had a simple thought process, since the young man was not only handsome but strong it shouldn’t be wrong to become friends with him.

“Hey junior brother, you seem pretty strong. I’m sure that you already know me, I’m Liu Yue of the Dazzling Phoenix Sect. I’m rather interested in you so how about we become friends.”

Liu Yue was always a straightforward person so she mostly said what’s on her mind without caring what other people think.

Loki who was scanning through the books stopped and looked at Liu Yue. Now that he got a closer look at the woman, she was two heads shorter than him and looked incredibly cute. He could also sense a strong aura coming from her.

‘Seeing how young she is and how boastful she was of announcing her name, she must be some kind of martial genius.’ Loki then showed a bright smile, that even made Liu Yue blush a little.

“Nice to meet you lady Liu Yue, I’m Loki Matsuda.”

“Loki Matsuda? What sect are you from, how come I never heard of you?” Before Loki could answer the question, Ye Rong suddenly appeared between the two.

“Hello junior brother, I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to greet you earlier, I’m Ye Rong of the Heavenly Dragon Sect. It’s a pleasure to meet another young genius.” Ye Rong extended his hand for a handshake.

“It’s nice to meet you as well, I’m Matsuda Loki.” As the two were shaking hands Liu Yue was pouting.

“What’s the meaning of this Ye Rong, I was the one who was talking to Junior Brother Loki first.”

“Oh sorry you were too small I didn’t notice you.”

“Huh?” When the two were getting heated up again, a sudden explosion was heard from the distance and the ground shook.

“What the f*ck is happening?!” Liu Yue shouted as the light on the second floor suddenly disappeared. Still, as they were all rather high-level martial artists the darkness didn’t bother them much. After that, another round of explosions sounded and even the sound of gunfire could be heard from a distance.

As the three of them were confused, the head guard came to the second floor with a grim look on his face. He snapped his fingers and all of the shadow guards on the second floor appeared before him. Mark gave some orders and the shadow guards dispersed. He then shifted his attention to the three geniuses present on the second floor.

“Sir Mark, what happened?” Ye Rong was the first to speak.

“We’re currently under attack,” Mark responded with a solemn tone.

“Under attack?! Who would dare attack one of the Martial Arts Department branches?” Liu Yue had a look of surprise on her face as the floor once again trembled from the aftershock of the battle happening.

“It’s the Star of Dawn.”

When the Twin Stars heard Mark’s reply they felt a little bit of fear. Even though they weren’t scared of fighting nor were they really that scared of death, but facing the crazies from the Star of Dawn was another matter altogether. 𝒇𝐫e𝑒𝔀𝒆𝚋no𝐯𝘦𝘭. c𝑜𝗺

While the three of them had an awful look on their faces, Loki was standing there with no clue as to what they were talking about.
