The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World-Chapter 7 New Weapon?
Aiden was now waiting, not doing anything worth noting. He was simply waiting for the new wave of monsters to appear, so that he could try and get some experience again. Because the feeling of strength he had gotten from upgrading his stats was simply addicting and he wanted to feel it once again.
Suddenly, a message appeared in front of him.
[The monsters of the second wave have all been eliminated.]
[The next and final wave will appear in 5 minutes, try to prepare for it.]
The thing about those messages that Aiden liked the most was the five-minute break. It might seem short, but it would make him able to sit down a little to prepare for the final wave which would probably be the hardest for him and his teammates.
Five minutes later, as Aiden had finally relaxed a little, he immediately got back to how he was previously, serious and aware of his surroundings just like an assassin would be, he seemed ready to fight at any moment, always looking around himself.
*Boom*
*Boom*
Explosions could be heard by Aiden, it seemed like the monsters were starting to appear. Aiden couldn't see them well since they were so far away from the city, but there was one of the monsters which he felt he shouldn't approach, that is, if he didn't want to die.
The monster was really big and tall, it only had one eye it looked like one of those fantastic creatures which you can see in movies. It looked like a Cyclops but Aiden wasn't sure of it since the only ones he had seen were from movies, maybe it was another monster he didn't know.
[The final wave is starting to approach the city, try to defend it.]
[If you kill the boss monster, extra rewards will be given. You can decide to leave the trial without killing the boss monster.]
Looking at the big monster, Aiden thought that it was probably the boss monster and that he would need to kill it if he wanted to get stronger and faster.
However, before fighting him he would need to kill the monsters that were coming toward the city gates at a fast rate.
·?θm The weaker monsters were green and all had a weapon with them, which didn't happen beforehand. The weapon they were carrying looked like a mace, which seemed quite heavy, but the monsters were swinging it like nothing. 𝚋ed𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝚕.𝚗et
As they entered the city, Aiden activated his passive skill [Shadow Steps] because he didn't want to be noticed by those hungry-looking monsters. He wanted to test, how strong one of them was, alone, before wanting to fight many of them.
He did the same strategy as with the other monsters and hid until he spotted one that acted alone and decided to see the strength of the monster.
The orc was looking around not knowing what was happening around him, it seemed that those monsters were not the smartest, but that meant that their pure strength would probably be massive.
Going behind the orc, Aiden, was charging his attack with the dull knife from earlier, he didn't get the chance to find a better weapon and was still stuck with it. He started charging his strike aiming at his neck.
However, at the last moment before the strike, the orc turned around by pure luck and saw that Aiden preparing this attack.
Seeing this the Orc raised his mace and protected himself not wanting to be hurt by the human in front of him.
Aiden didn't give up and tried to attack the orc again, this time, by throwing a fake strike at him to see how he would react.
It was a good idea because the Orcs were not the smartest, to say the least. From the way they walked to the way, they moved their body. They seemed to be the embodiment of stupidity.
The fake attack used by Aiden caused the monster to defend himself for no reason which created an opening that Aiden decided to use as soon as he saw it because he didn't know if he would be able to get another clean strike anytime soon.
The attack seemed to work with green blood being laced around the blade of the knife Aiden had used to attack it.
The orc touched his arm which was injured because of the attack from the knife and he looked furiously at Aiden, it seemed to be the first time in his life that he had gotten hurt by something.
Enraged, the orc started swinging his mace around himself. The mace was only hitting the air with no real target.
But this reaction from the Orc, only caused its downfall since it opened many more opportunities for Aiden to attack it because the monster seemed to have lost control of his emotions.
Aiden started hitting the orc with his knife, not being able to slash him because the knife was not sharp enough to do so. He continued hitting him over and over again as he sometimes saw green blood flowing out of the body of the orc.
After a while, the orc was found on the ground, it seemed like he had lost so much blood that he wasn't able to stand and had lost all functions in his body. It seemed like Aiden had finally succeeded in killing this orc as a message from the system started to appear in front of him.
[You have killed an orc]
[You have gained 20 experience.]
[+4 points]
[An item has been dropped.]
Seeing the last message from the system, Aiden decided to look at the place where the body of the orc has disappeared into particles and there it was, the mace that the orc had used while fighting Aiden.
It seemed like Aiden had finally found a better weapon than the one he had currently which would make it much easier to hunt the other monsters around him.
He decided to pick it up and inspect it. As he did so, a panel from the system opened in front of his eyes.
[Orc's Mace]
[Rank: Basic]
[Description: A mace used by most of the orcs when fighting. It is made of quality material but the blacksmith who crafted this mace was not skilled enough to make it one of a kind.]
It was the first time for him that he had gotten an item that the system recognized, the knife he had used before had not activated this system probably because it was too weak and wasn't useful to any type of awakener.
However, this mace that the orc was using was of the Basic rank which was probably the lowest rank possible for items. The mace was clearly better than the dull knife that Aiden had been using.
The mace would probably help Aiden fight against the orcs because this weapon would cause a lot more damage to monsters in a shorter amount of time.
Aiden was excited to test it out on the other monsters and didn't waste any time finding his new victim.
