The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

"Let go of me!" She shouted with her eyes wide-opened. For some reason, she seemed to be crazy at the moment, not understanding what her actions were. "Don't you understand? This is the perfect opportunity for me."

She flashed a huge smile. Aiden had to admit that she was speaking with an extremely cruel voice, it was scary all things considered.

Aiden held her wrists even tighter as she looked at her, judging her. "What perfect opportunity are you even talking about? Don't you get it, you're torturing her... Hell, just look at her!"

Aiden glanced at Evelynn while saying that and she was still in the same position as earlier, tied up to the wall—half-naked.

He made to only get a peek at her since he didn't want to be called a pervert or anything related to that. He knew that there wasn't a lot of chance of such a thing happening, however, he didn't want to take any risk.

He didn't want to make anyone uncomfortable, his goal was simple: helping Evelynn to the best of his ability.

Anna turned her head. "What's the problem, she looks fine to me."

It seemed that she didn't understand the gravity of the situation at all, not even noticing the slightest problem.

'Just what happened for her to undergo such a huge change in her personality?' Aiden pondered. 'Did she drink a potion?'

"Just fucking open your eyes!" Aiden shouted as he didn't know what to do. He didn't know how to make her come back to her normal behavior. 

He had tried hurting her somewhat by grabbing her wrists tightly, however, it hadn't worked at all.

'Should I injure her?' Aiden thought as he honestly couldn't think of anything else at the moment.

He wasn't sure of what he would do if such a thing didn't work.

Aiden decided that he would injure her this time as he released one of her wrists grabbing the dagger that was currently around his waist.

He made a small cut to one of her arms, thinking that she might have a reaction from it. But, unfortunately, there was no change as she didn't even notice that she had gotten hurt.

It was quite weird all things considered that she didn't feel her skin being cut. Aiden was also sure that she had cut her since there was blood currently leaving her injury.

'Fuck, hurting her won't work. Then what can I do next?' Aiden pondered.

He thought and thought, but there were no ideas coming to his mind. He didn't know how to deal with a crazy person, especially seeing how mentally affected she was at the moment.

"Fuck! What can I do?" Aiden shouted as he remembered that he wasn't alone in this room. "Evelynn, help me for fuck sake she's gone crazy."

Evelynn who had been silent for a while seemed to remember that she was alive as her eyes opened wide, realizing the situation that she was in once again. It was like she had forgotten about it because of the potion that she had forcefully drunk.

"I don't know, she became like this ever since you left. I have no idea what happened, it's like a demon took over her. Maybe it's her emotions, I don't know," Evelynn answered, panicked out of her mind.

She had no idea what had happened, but she was still trying her absolute best to give Aiden some ideas on how to fix this whole thing.

'Emotions?' Aiden thought as if giving him a small idea. 'Maybe I could use that skill? Would that work?'

There was no way for Aiden to make sure that such a thing would work. However, he still decided to try it as he was currently in contact with the person that he would be using it which facilitated the skill use.

[Gentle Touch has been activated.]

A small message appeared in front of Aiden as he could feel some energy currently going into the body that was right in front of him.

Aiden still had no idea how this skill worked, however, he knew one thing... Every single time that he had used it, the person had calmed down instantly, so if any of his skills could be useful right now. It had to be this one.

"What's happening to me!" Anna reacted instantly as she could feel that something was happening with her body.

She felt like there was someone who trying to control her, or rather, limit her emotions to the strict minimum.

It was quite a weird scene for Aiden as her reaction seemed to be quite strong, slowly losing strength in her arms and legs.

The only reason that she was still standing was because Aiden was holding her by her wrists.

"Are you okay?" Aiden asked with a worried tone.

Such a thing had never happened when using that skill, most of the time, the person would just realize that all of her emotions were leaving her body.

Sometimes people would be thankful to Aiden or furious there was no in-between. In fact, Aiden could still remember the time that Emma had liked it a lot.

She had liked it so much that there had been some "actions" happening between her and him, he had to admit that he had quite liked it even if nothing had happened regarding their relationship ever since.

As he was about to continue thinking about her, a feeble voice made him realize that there was still quite a weird ongoing situation.

"I-I am," Anna said as she slowly opened her eyes once again. "What just happened here?"

She asked that as if she had no memories of everything that had just transpired.

"Why are you tied up? Who did this to you?"

Aiden looked at her carefully as he wanted to make sure that Anna wasn't putting an act. However, as much as he wanted to figure it out, it was impossible.

"It was you. You did this to me," Evelynn replied, containing all of her anger.
