The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Spotting another orc not far away from where he was, he dashed with [Shadow Steps] active at the monster with the improved agility he had gotten. The orc once again didn't notice Aiden approaching and was taken by surprise by this attack.

The attack Aiden was just as powerful as before, but he now had a weapon capable of damage which he didn't have in his last fight. However, one thing that was important to note was that the mace could be considered heavy by the standards of Aiden since he always used a dagger since he was young.

Realizing that weapons were essential for survival, Aiden decided that he would buy the best dagger he could when clearing this trial. But to buy this dagger he would need to get good rewards which was exactly why he still focused on the trial ahead.

Swinging down the mace without much precision, only hoping to hit the head of the orc blood could be seen spilling out of the orc's body. It seemed that the weapon Aiden had obtained which was considered of Basic rank by the system, was quite powerful against monsters of this caliber.

The fight this time was shorter since the attacks procured much more damage and after the fifth hit, the orc was once again starting to disappear into particles.

[You have killed an orc.]

[You have gained 20 XP.]

[+4 points]

'Just where are those monsters disappearing to? Where do they come from?' asked Aiden to himself, not understanding how monsters could be spawned all around him.

'Just what is the secret of this place?'

However, before he could find answers to those questions a group of orcs seemed to be coming after him, it looked like the monsters around him were starting to realize that someone was killing their kind and they needed to be careful fighting against him.

Seeing the group of orcs approaching him, Aiden kept his cool and stayed concentrated to see any type of move they would try on him. Aiden didn't seem scared, he was confident that he could win against them but he knew it wouldn't be an easy fight by any means.

The orcs were looking at the human that was not moving an inch of his body and thought that he was scared out of his mind and started approaching with a mace in their hands just like the one from earlier. It seemed that Aiden would have no choice but to fight them.

Realizing this, Aiden dashed toward the orc who seemed the weakest out of the three that were approaching him. He was moving at a speed at which the orc had difficulty following him with only their eyes, it seemed their instinct was well developed since the orc was able to block his attack.

*Ding*

The sound of the two maces colliding against one another resonated close to them. Aiden hoped that none of the orcs around them heard that or else he would be in big problem, not having a trap to rely on this time.

However, having his attack blocked didn't deter Aiden from continuing attacking, and tried to fake an attack just like he did against the first orc he had fought against.

The orc had the exact same reaction as the one from earlier and gave an opportunity that Aiden didn't miss for a single second. He slammed the mace to the open spot on his chest trying to make as much damage as possible.

As he was doing that, the orcs who were around them started to realize that maybe their comrade wouldn't be able to kill him and that he needed their help. So, they decided to swing their mace at Aiden hoping to hit him but once again he was too fast dodging every single attack coming toward him.

Seeing those attacks Aiden reacted quickly and swung at both of them and hit them right in their head. It looked like they had received some considerable damage and that it was only a question of time until he finished the three of them off.

This is exactly what he did, and swung at the three of them until he could see the same particles as earlier coming off of him.

[You have killed an orc.]

[You have gained 20 XP.]

[You have killed an orc.]

...

[You have leveled up.]

It seemed that killing those orcs made Aiden gain enough experience for him to level 5. Right after receiving his unallocated stat point, he directly added it to his agility because he felt like he wasn't as fast as he wanted to. He could feel that some of the moves he made before weren't as smooth now.

*Clap*

*Clap*

*Clap*

Clapping sounds were starting to be heard by Aiden, asking himself just where did that come from.

Suddenly, shadows of figures which didn't look like one of an orc were starting to appear on the ground. It looked like humans were approaching him, but Aiden didn't understand, just who was coming toward him.

He knew that his teammates were on the side of the city and wouldn't come looking for him since there was no need to because he was doing his job correctly and hadn't missed a single monster since the start of the trial.

They were probably happy with the results he was producing.

The shadows continued to advance toward Aiden and that was when he noticed that they looked quite similar to his former teammates who had abandoned him. It seemed that they had come to see him for reasons which were unknown to Aiden.

"Aiden! Are you okay? It looks like a big fight happened around here," exclaimed Ava, trying to sound as cute as possible.

'What the hell are they doing here' thought Aiden.

"Oh, wow you killed those three orcs by yourself, you really are strong," said Ava, as she approached herself and grabbed the arm of Aiden and interlocked it with hers.

Aiden not happy with being touched without his permission tried to free his arm but it was no success, it seemed that she would not let it go.

"Alright fine keep holding it, but what are you guys doing here? Didn't you guys want to abandon me?" said Aiden, looking at all of them in the eyes, anger could be felt through that look.

"Well... we saw how good you were doing and decided to come back to where you were. We thought it would be better to act as a team, don't you think so too?" said Ava, with pleading eyes.

"Ahah, why would I need you guys, I'm doing great on my own just go back it's fine I don't need all of you."

"Don't say that, didn't you see that boss monster? Don't you think that you will need our help to kill it, or don't tell me you want to clear the trial without killing it?"

"Hmm, the boss monster, huh? I guess I can let you guys stay but you will need to prove that you have enough strength to be useful. Each of you will have to kill an orc."

"Do I really have to do it too?" asked Ava, trying to use her charm and her big melons to her advantage.

"You, hmm I guess you don't need to since you are ranked second in the rankings," said Aiden, acting like he was being influenced.

Hearing this, Ava was smiling, it seemed like her charm affected the man in front of her. He even gave her some type of preferential treatment.

But, that was far from the truth, Aiden wanted to see just what had Ava planned to do.
