Killer Reincarnation
Chapter 6. Recruit
“It seems, I can only get here.” Lien Hua's hair covered one of her eyes, her gaze was extremely sharp and piercing to anyone.
“What-e-” means
The unfinished man behind Lien Hua spoke, he had already fallen down first with severe burns on his back. Not only him, the one man standing next to him also experienced the same thing. It was as if it had just been attacked by an invisible flame.
“A-what are you doing??”
“Who told you?” lien Hua asked with a sharp look.
“Ap-”
Not yet finished the man's words, a sword had already pierced through his heart.
Lien Hua heartlessly drew the sword that had been in her hands for some time and left the man instantly covered with blood.
With a slow step, Lien Hua walked towards the cloaked man. However some men blocked his steps and irritated Lien Hua.
“Two options, on or off?”
“Fucking girl!” a man directly ran towards him with a sword raised into the sky, yet it had yet to reach Lien Hua. He fell right off.
“Cih, your blood disgusts me!” lien Hua said in an annoyed tone, she took a few steps back until the shoes she used came out from the blood.
“G-fucking girls! Attack him!” commanding one of them, all the burly men immediately ran towards Lien Hua with their swords raised. There are also those who use their bare hands because they can use magic. Only the cloaked man was still silent and observing in silence.
Lien Hua was still silent on the spot, until they stayed a few steps away from her. Lien Hua raised his hand towards the sky.
“Fire ball.”
A fireball appeared around Lien Hua, the fireball then flew and burned everyone who approached it.
Lien Hua tilted her head when she saw the fine-robed man, not even slightly injured despite being hit by his fireball.
“It looks like you have a special magic, Sir,” said Lien Hua with a thin grin that adorned her face.
“Yes, your magic is quite impressive.” after a long time, finally the cloaked man let out a sound. From his voice, Lien Hua grew more and more convinced that the cloaked man was an old grandfather.
“I still want to play, but it seems like it's not enough time.” Lien Hua held onto her chest, right in the direction of her painful heart.
He turned around and walked away, but just took a step. Lien Hua instantly stopped when he heard the cloaked man's words. “You seem to be reliable in terms of killing, how about working with me?”
“Sorry, Sir. But I am not interested in your work,” Lien Hua said in a Polite tone.
“You will get 50 gold coins if your mission is successful!” the speech from the robed man made Lien Hua who was about to step back to a halt, a smirk smile clearly visible on her face. He turned.
“Deal.”
...----------------...
“Nona Lien Hua, Where have you been? I'm so scared here!”
Lien Hua patted Xia He's back who was hugging him. “I'm not going anywhere, now I keep my promise. I have returned.”
Xia He took off his embrace and wiped away the tears that kept flowing down his face. “T-but, how did you get away Miss? They look really strong,” Xia He said sobbing.
'Strong one? Feeling, just a minor burn. They were instantly like roasted rabbits, but thank goodness they did not die. Just a little weird, it turns out they're all killer organizations. I thought they were bandits who wanted to snatch away our valuables.' Inner Lien Hua while tapping her chin.
'Xixixi, 100 gold coins. It was a negotiation reward for me to join, if they were that rich enough to give me 100 gold coins. Though they are only hired assassins who have devoted themselves to the mission.'
“Wah, that guy is very good. May we meet again and repay her kindness, yes. Miss.” Xia He said happily, Lien Hua shook her head looking at her attitude.
“Eh, by the way. Where is Black? I didn't see it from earlier.” Lien Hua looked around but found Black nowhere.
“Ah, Black? She was here Miss. Maybe because there was an explosion, Black got scared and kept hiding behind me,” Xia He said as he lowered his head and looked at Black who was standing behind him with a body trembling in fear.
“Ulululu, pity once.” Lien Hua raised Black and rubbed it gently. “Are you that scared at the sound of the explosion? Black.”
Black meowed and made Lien Hua even more anxious with the fat black cat in her hands, she instantly turned her face away.
'Stupid! Hold yourself, do you want Black to die from pulling his cheek!' Lien Hua shook her head quickly, she sighed and looked at Xia He.
“Let's go, it's almost night too.”
“Good, Miss!”
...----------------...
“Master, are you sure you want to recruit the girl?” asked a man while pouring tea into the cup of the robed man.
“What's up? Do you have any doubts about my judgment?” asked the cloaked man, the man immediately shook his head.
“It is not so, Mr. L. It's just that, there's not a girl who becomes a hitman anymore. Wouldn't it be weird to recruit him.”
“Hem, about that. Let me take care of it, you just tell the others. Don't bother her, let alone tease her!”
...----------------...
“Please tea, Miss.”
Xia He poured tea into Lien Hua's cup, the girl nodded slowly and massaged her temples dizzy.
“What's up, Miss? Are you sick?”
“I'm fine, Xia He. Where's Black?” ask Lien Hua back.
“Black has been sleeping since, Miss. You should also get enough rest. It's been very night.”
Lien Hua who nodded small, she flicked her hand and made Xia He bow and walk away.
Lien Hua again sighed. 'My life is back, where I work as a hit man to support myself. Living in the house I want, not restrained by anyone, no need to hear anyone's chatter. But it seems like this time is different, Xia He and Black will definitely trouble me.' Lien Hua chuckled slightly, she drank her tea gracefully and returned putting the teacup to the table.
A black shadow suddenly flashed across the window of Lien Hua's residence, the girl sighed. “Already old Grandpa, no need to play umpet again.”
The cloaked man instantly appeared in front of Lien Hua like lightning. “Where?” asked Lien Hua while playing her fingers.
The robed man gave Lien Hua a piece of paper, the girl immediately took the paper and looked at the picture of a man.
“Mission details are behind that image.”
