Hitman with a Badass System

"I cannot wait to wear this bad boy and terrorize my enemies, hahaha" Michael evilly laughed looking at his suit of armor. He then stored the armor in his system storage and started to brew the Fear toxin. He was being extremely cautious not to inhale the toxin. As a precaution, he wore the Black mask he just bought. Unlike the Devil's breath, the Fear toxin had no antidote, if he inhaled the toxin, he would experience hallucinations and absolute terror for a few hours.

According to his calculations, the weaker the cultivation level, the stronger the effects would be. For an instance, the Fear toxin would affect a Body refining stage cultivator for three to five hours whereas it would affect a Body Strengthening stage cultivator for two to four hours.

After fifteen minutes of careful brewing, he took a medium-sized bottle and poured a black goo like liquid into the bottle. The Fear toxin had a low boiling point so it would vaporize very quickly and spread to a large area in a matter of seconds which was perfect for his upcoming plans.

"Damn! Alchemy is so overpowered" The only thing he lacked to milk full use of his Alchemy talent was the ingredients and herbs. Many powerful, overpowered pills and potions required very rare herbs and precious ingredients which he currently had only one way to get, System's store. However, the ingredients and herbs in the System store were extremely costly. Therefore, he decided to grow them old-fashioned since he could buy the seeds from the store cheaper than the grown herbs. As for the items such as wyvern claws, dragon scales, and items he can't grow like herbs, he planned to buy them using gold coins in auction houses.

The fight between the assassins made him realize his biggest weakness that is depending on the system too much. Anytime he could run out of Badass points and face a situation like that again and if he had to solely depend on the system, he would be screwed. Because of this, he decided to take advantage of the world and the people around him. For instance, he planned to grow a large Herbal garden at the sect for his Alchemy rather than buying from the system.

"I may as well brew the blood cleaner" Using the Grappling hook he comfortably landed on the ground and began his searches for the herbs required to brew the blood cleaner. He collected most of the herbs near the area where he buried the bodies of the Assassins and now only needed a particular mushroom as the last ingredient.

"There it is" Considering the mushroom had a fluorescent effect, he was able to quickly find the mushroom. He carefully plucked a couple of glowing green mushrooms and put them into his system storage.

"Huh?" At the moment, Gaya noticed a shadow outside through the window.

In the darkness, she couldn't make out the face but barely saw the figure with the help of the half-moon.

"Bastard didn't even give me his Knife!" she cursed Michael and picked up the vase to defend her.

"Hey, it's me, open the door" Only now hearing Michael's voice, she heaved a sigh of relief.

"What's the code?"

"There's no code, you damn snake" she chuckled inside and continued to mess with him

"You have only two tries remaining, what's the code?"

"Gaya is a bi" before he could finish his words, she slammed open the door with a furious expression on her face

"What did you call me?"

"I was going to say Gaya is a big girl, what did you think?" he pushed her away and entered the house.

"You fucking liar! You were going to say Gaya is a bitch, weren't you?"

"Your words, not mine" ignoring her scowl, he took out the blood cleaner which was a milky white potion and poured it in the bloodstains.

"What is that smell?" Gaya twitch her nose and sniffed the air

"What smell?" he kept pouring the potion as the bloodstains began to disappear.

"I don't know, it smells like paint and metaly" Michael's hands stopped pouring the potion when he heard her and looked at her coming towards him sniffing the air.

"It's coming from you but not from this potion" She walked closer to him and took his hand.

"Hey, what're you doing?" She sniffed his hands and nodded

"Yes, it's definitely coming from you" Michael never expected a snake-like her to have a sense of smell like a dog. Even though he washed away the paint stains on his hands and could no longer smell the pain, he realized she could still smell the metallic paint.

"Of course it's coming from me. Do you think potions magically appear? One of the herbs I used to brew the Blood cleaner smells like paint, that what you're smelling "

"Well, make it go away, it stinks' ' she put his hand back and loafed into the sofa since the blood on it now disappeared.

"Do you smell everything that stinks?"

Thop!

She threw a piece of broken wood at him instead of answering as he chuckled a little.

When he finished pouring all the blood cleaner, he heard hissing and snoring and turned to see Gaya fell asleep on the sofa. Looking at her curled figure, he went to his room and brought her bedsheets.

"I should plant the seeds before they come in the morning" he left the house after covering Gaya with the bedsheet. He expected small gestures like these would help him increase her loyalty to him and then, he could finally cure her and get a powerful subordinate.

The herbal garden of the Sunrise sect was previously cleaned off by him and now had nothing but grass and weed.

"For now, this small garden would do but in the future, I'm going to create the largest herbal garden in Bredia'' The herbal garden before him was only 200 square feet in size and had no protection around it. Not that someone would rob a small garden in a declined sect.

Taking out the seed pack and the compost he bought from the system, he started to get his hands dirty. Maintaining his garden would be Ricky and Daniel's job but for now, he chose to do it.

After he finished preparing the soil, he remembered about the special fertilized he got from the system's gift box. The fertilizer was a green powder packed inside a paper bag.

"System, tell me about this"

[The Special fertilizer will permanently increase the land's fertility and growth speed of the herbs. According to the System's calculation, the seeds would take two days to grow in this garden and the fertilizer would make them grow in a day]

"Then, it's a good thing I ordered Ricky and Daniel to buy the herbs from Sarton. It's bad for business to send back the customers on its very second day" After he met Gaya's sister and the blonde at the restaurant, he left a note and a pouch of coins for Ricky and Daniel. On the note, he ordered them to go to Sarton and buy everything he listed as he needed the items to concoct pills and brew potions. The items were enough to keep the shop open for two days and after that, the herbs in the garden would be ready to be plucked and used to make the potions and pills.

Soon after, he left the herbal garden and made his way back to his house. Today was a very fruitful day, he broke through to the next level by killing the Assassins, he finally bought the suit of armor for his plan, brewed the fear toxin, and planted the seeds to cut the purchasing cost of herbs.

One last thing he had to do before putting his suit of armor was to get the list of all the criminals in the Kingdom. If his plan to go as smoothly as he planned, he must kill some criminals and introduce his second persona to Bredia.

And when everyone starts to fear and worship his second persona, he would finally end the life of the one who sent the assassins to kill him, Jane Totonk.

"Since I come to this world, I killed many but Jane, you're the first person I'm going to Assassinate"
