The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



"A surprise?" said Thorin, not sure what she meant by that, as he knew that they were almost sure of winning this Inter Family Tournament.

They were, after all, the strongest there was. Nobody could rival them, in fact, not a single one out of the high-level families could dream of becoming a founding family.

Because it was told in the name, there were the founding families, the ones which had been the strongest a long time ago, well... that was what the history said at least.

"Yes, a surprise, who knows? Maybe this year, someone will be able to surpass our youngsters," said Melinda with a completely serious expression.

The Nightshade Patriarch who had been silent since earlier spoke up for the first time as he seemed quite dissatisfied with the words that he was currently hearing.

"Are you talking about the Prodigy as they call him, sorry but he won't amount too much. My son is obviously way better than him," said the Nightshade Patriarch, talking about Alex Nightshade, not Aiden.

Melinda only nodded upon hearing that, as she seemed quite excited seeing such a dark aura coming out of such a young body.

'Just who is this kid?' she thought, not understanding how someone their age, could be releasing such a dark aura.

'What about him? Would he be able to do such a thing?' she thought, having the image of a person in her mind.

The figure of that person was slender as he only had a dagger in his hands, with long black behind his back. His face, however, couldn't be seen as she didn't have an idea of who that might be.

She had only seen his figure from far away, once, and that was a long time ago. Melinda had gone around asking about a slim figure dressed in black, however, no one had been able to tell her about him.

'Who knows? It's not like I have any idea of his strength,' she thought, as she dismissed those thoughts from her mind as it wouldn't amount to anything either way.

"I wasn't talking about the Prodigy, I also, don't think that he will stay in this competition for long," said Melinda as she knew that this masked person that she was currently watching would soon be eliminating him.

There was a single shred of doubt in her mind that someone capable of such an aura wouldn't win against someone who was blind. 

'Maybe I could recruit him? He might know something about that person,' she thought, as she seemed quite interested in all of Aiden's actions.

Meanwhile, Aiden's team was now facing the enemy team with the bulky girl that he had seen earlier in front.

The one who had accepted those responsibilities in Aiden's team had been Logan as he was supposed to be a front-liner, however, no matter how much Aiden tried to convince himself, he wasn't sure whether or not that man would fulfill his job well.

That was the reason why he decided that he wouldn't be depending on anyone for this fight, he would simply use his teammates as a distraction. He had kept thinking about the way to use his current power and he had concluded that seemed to be the best option.

Who cares if one of them got hurt?

At the end of the day, if he was going to win, he couldn't care less about anything that would happen because of the actions that he would be taking.

"Alright, I'll leave the rest to you guys," said Aiden as he jumped onto one of the trees that were surrounding them.

It seemed that the environment in which the fight would be taking place would be helping Aiden's team just like Olivia and the others had already expected.

'Let's just pray that this guy will be able to tank a little of the attacks,' thought Aiden as he looked at the situation from above trying to see if a slimmer of an opportunity would be appearing in front of him.

Emma, who was next to Olivia, was quite uncomfortable because of the earlier situation which was why she decided to do exactly like Aiden did as she also jumped into one of the trees that was close to her.

Who knew if Olivia would try to do as she did earlier during the fight?

Emma was pretty sure that it wouldn't happen, but she still wanted to make sure that it wouldn't happen which was why she jumped away.

Now, only Olivia and Logan were the only ones on the ground. He someone would have a glance at the current situation, it looked like a group of people where grouping up on two lone people who were isolated.

"Bro, I guess, they went into hiding, show them what you're made of," said Olivia, winking at her brother who had just looked back.

"I guess, I will," he muttered in an extremely low voice, as some parts of his body seemed to start to shake. 

Blood could be seen coming out of his body as he was currently going through a complete transformation.

His non-existent muscle started to increase in size over and over again.

Aiden who was watching this from above was totally shocked, as he couldn't understand what was currently happening.

'What's happening to him? Why is he screaming?' he thought, as Logan hadn't stopped screaming ever since those changes started appearing.

It seemed that this skill of his had quite the cost and changed his entire body. 

"Quickly, attack him, who knows what's happening to him?" said the swordsman as he advanced toward Logan's ever-changing body.

"A-attack me? Why would you do that? Where am I? What's happening?" he said as he kept stuttering while saying so.

Maybe his body had changed, but his personality certainly hadn't, he was still very scared of others even with that massive body of his.

But, then as the swordsman was about to attack Logan, Olivia who was right behind him, shouted.

"They're trying to attack me, please protect me."

As those words were pronounced, it seemed like a switch had turned on inside of Logan's mind.
