The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

'What does she mean by that?' thought Aiden, unsure why she had said that he might need Isolde in the next challenge.

He hadn't needed her a single time since arriving here, so why would that start to change?

It's not like he would have to learn to cast an illusion in the next challenge, right?

"Alright, enough about that, follow me. We're going somewhere else, away from civilization," she said as she went up to Aiden grabbing one of his arms with the intent of picking him up.

It seemed that she thought that Aiden wasn't able to fly, but that would be a grave mistake as Aiden was probably even better than her at flying since he had access to Qi.

"Let go of me," muttered Aiden, as he removed her hand from his arm before he started flying in the air without even looking back a single time.

"Wait you can fly?" questioned Evelynn, not expecting it one bit.

However, Aiden didn't even bother answering as it seemed pretty obvious that he could since he was in the air without even struggling one bit.

'Well, he just keeps showing me more and more interesting stuff,' thought Evelynn, truly wondering how he had learned how to fly.

Wasn't he from the Slums and a Middle-level family, so why was he so good at everything that he was trying to do? It literally made no sense, well from Evelynn's point of view.

"Alright, whatever just follow me, we're going somewhere quite tricky, so make sure that you can't lose sight of me," uttered Evelynn, as she started flying forward at an average speed, well for her.

Because from Aiden's point of view, she was moving at a snail's pace.

Then, as Evelynn turned her head, verifying that Aiden was still behind her, she was shocked to see that he was literally right behind her not even a single centimetre away from her.

It seemed that he was following her advice to the dot, as he was following her from really close not wanting to lose sight of her, even if it would be hard considering the speed at which she was currently going.

'I guess, I can go a little bit faster,' thought Evelynn, seeing that Aiden had no trouble keeping up,

"Just tell me if I'm going too fast," she added before turning her head once again, going a little bit faster than earlier.

She still wasn't going at her top speed, but it was around 75% of the maximum output that she could muster.

Now that she was going a little bit faster, Aiden was somewhat happy since it meant that it would be wasting less time during that transfer.

***

A couple of minutes later, both Aiden and Evelynn were still flying, however, it seemed that they would soon reach their destination as Evelynn had slowed down and was also going through some weird places in the mountains.

Aiden wasn't anywhere close to the mansion or the training grounds, it was literally in the middle of nowhere in the middle of multiple mountains surrounding him from all sides.

"Are we arriving soon?" asked Aiden, seeing that Evelynn had now stopped looking around herself, looking pretty lost at the moment which wasn't reassuring in the least from Aiden's point of view.

"We already arrived actually, however, it seems that your teacher isn't ready to pick you up yet. I think he was a little surprised by the speed at which you are through our challenges. Normally, you would have arrived here a couple of days, but well I guess you were too strong for our challenges," admitted Evelynn.

She had no choice but to admit that the Reaper had truly impressed her as he was able to beat her challenge even faster than the first one which had been supposed to be the easiest.

Sure, Aiden would have beaten the first challenge in a couple of minutes without mixing his Qi with his Mana, but well Evelynn didn't know that, so she was even more humiliated.

Then, after waiting a couple of minutes standing still while flying, Evelynn turned toward Aiden with a smile on her face, however, it didn't seem to be that great of a smile since there seemed to be a hidden intent behind it.

"Um, you know that I like you, but well I can't stay here forever and I need to get back to Isolde and decrease her difficulty since it wouldn't be fair for her. So... just stay here and someone will come pick you up," she said as she turned her back toward him, and she started to fly away without looking back even once.

However, Aiden honestly couldn't care less about her leaving since she was also doing nothing and to be completely honest, the excuses that she had just used were valid, especially the one considering Isolde.

Then, Aiden was completely alone, without anything around him except those two mountains which were separated by a big cliff.

'Can I go wait on the ground or do I need to wait here in this exact spot?' thought Aiden, as he started looking around, thinking that it could fly up the cliff and sit up there since it would be a little bit more comfortable for him.

'Well, I'll probably see the third teacher when he comes around here,' thought Aiden as he started to fly up the cliff.

He knew that he would be able to spot the teacher if he were to come up, so there was no problem with him exploring a little was what around this place which was far away from the city.

'Why did they have to bring us here? Don't tell me that the teacher is someone who lives in those mountains?' thought Aiden, kind of expecting that to be the case since there was absolutely no other reason to bring him here for the third challenge.

So, this meant one thing and one thing only, his third teacher would be special.

Well, just like the other two, but he might be worse living in this place.
