Assassins: One Down
Although his words were whispered, Hildegarde heard him. She really wanted to beat him up. How could someone who had an assassin coming his way be so unconcerned? She could feel the excitement seeping out of his bones, and the joy that radiated from his entire being.
She couldn’t help but think to herself, “is he secretly a psycho?”
Before long, Hildegarde could feel the approach of another presence. No wait. Two more presences! It wasn’t just one assassin, but two! She quickly informed Mane of her findings.
“There are two people coming. One of them is on the roof. The other is going to use the door!” Mane nodded his head quietly as he hid under the bed. He began to draw a simulation of what was likely going to happen in his head. This room had only two openings – the door and the window. The one on the roof was going to break in through the window. His entrance would ensure that only one of the openings would be availab

Mane didn’t see the dagger, so he didn’t pay it any heed. He concentrated all his efforts on the head he was holding.“Status,” he softly mumbled and proceeded to look at the physical attributes of the deceased lady.Name: UnknownAge: 33Physical Attributes – Strength: 2.7Agility: 3.8Stamina: 3.2Path: Agility Oriented New Type“Just as I thought,” Mane glossed through her information quickly. He opened the window large enough so that Hildegarde could also see what was on it. Mane’s guess about her agility being her strongest attribute was spot on. However, her strength was several times lower than her stamina or agility. It seemed that she only focused on training what she was good at. That was the right call. Unfortunately for her, she met someone whose agility was higher tha
Hunters: The Prequel Assassin: The Last Assassin Part I
“It’s too quiet,” a man who was hidden amongst the shrubbery just a few metres away from Dan’s home observed. He was covered entirely in black, and there was a mask concealing his facial features and revealing only his eyes. His eyes were sharp and oppressive, and his body reeked of death. There was a large sword strapped to his back, and a small dagger sheathed at his waist. He was watching the door a few metres away with utmost concentration. This man was the last member of the assassin trio sent to deal with Mane. Just as Hildegarde assumed, he was the strongest of the three and the one leading this mission. And it wasn’t just a slight difference in strength. The two assassins that were inside had their fortes. The female assassin was agility oriented whilst the male assassin was strength oriented. This was because of their specialties as New Types. But their leader was different. He was also a New Type, but he was a much rarer kind. He was a Stamina

He found the man’s status interesting not because he was stronger or faster than the other two. He found the man’s status interesting because of the bit about a Superior Attribute. He knew little about New Types. Although the books Dan gave him spoke of them, it mainly had to do with general information. But nothing about Superior Attributes had been stated. Unlike Mystic Path Warriors, New Types didn’t awaken any strange abilities that let them fly or summon fire. What New Types experienced was an increase in the
Hunters: The Prequel Over
“That was awesome,” Hildegarde exclaimed with a red face! Now that everything was over, she could appreciate the skill and talent required to best the three assailants.“You think,” Mane replied with a questioning look? “I was a bit disappointed to be honest,” Mane remarked casually as he bent down to appraise the heavy sword on the ground.“Why? You got what you wanted, didn’t you?” Hildegarde didn’t understand why Mane said he was unimpressed. He said he wanted to fight, and he got that. So why was he unsatisfied.“This man outclassed me in every attribute except agility. But I was still able to control the tempo of the battle pretty easily. Why was that?” Mane appreciated the blade of the heavy weapon as he spoke.“Because you are a good thinker,” Hildegarde guessed.“True. I have a good brain” Mane boasted. “But it didn’t factor into this
Hunters: The Prequel Mane and Lily
“Mane! Are you okay? We heard some noise outside so we came out to check”“Oh great” Mane smiled wryly when he saw the figures of Lam and Lily approaching him. Lam was in his sleeping clothes and Lily was wearing a flimsy see-through nightgown.“And I thought I could do things quietly” Mane mumbled as he lamented his bad luck. He hid the rag he was planning to use to clean up the blood and faced the twins. But his actions didn’t change anything. There was a dead body right behind him, and anyone with eyes could see it.“Is that,” Lam was the first of the two to notice that something was wrong? As expected of the smart boy, he immediately realized that Mane was trying to hide something from them.“As I thought. Nothing gets past you huh.” Mane laughed dryly and took a step to the left. The assassin he was trying hard to hide from the twins’ view was displayed before them.&ldquo
Hunters: The Prequel Old Fan's Thinking
“How are you so good at this,” Mane had a positively stunned expression as he watched Lily expertly clean his wounds with a bottle of alcohol. The alcohol was actually a bottle of alcohol rich wine that Old Fan had at home.“This isn’t the first time I’ve had to dress up someone’s wounds,” Lily blushed slightly as she stated. She had a kind smile on her face as she obediently attended to Mane.“I can’t believe she used it,”” Old Fan had tears in his eyes are he watched the bottle of wine that was right next to Lily. The formerly full bottle was now almost empty. Lily had almost emptied the bottle of its entire contents when she was disinfecting Mane’s wounds. She poured the wine on Mane’s hand without holding back, much to the pain of Old Fan.“I was saving that bottle for a special occasion,” Old Fan sniffed sadly.There was one mystery surrounding Old Fan: how did
Hunters: The Prequel Angry Dan
“How so, Grandfather,” Lam asked?“You want to become a Village Head, don’t you? Although the position is yours by birthright, you aren’t a New Type, and are weak. There would most likely be opposition to your ascension to the seat of Village Head. And this would most likely be led by the current Village Head – Samoa”“But with someone as strong as Mane on your side, that wouldn’t matter. Dan cannot interfere in the affairs of the village due to a promise he made to an old friend many years ago. Or else he would have killed Samoa a long time ago”Lam gulped when his Grandfather mentioned killing Village Head Samoa like it was nothing. But since it was Dan he was talking about, Lam knew it was true. That usually smiling man was vastly stronger than anyone in the village and could kill anyone he wished to kill.“But Mane isn’t bound by any such restrictions and is very young. He may bec

“It’s been an hour. Why haven’t they returned?” Within the house at the centre of the village, an important personage was currently panicking. Village Head Samoa pranced about his hall, his movements similar to a person who was on fire. He seemed very uncomfortable, and he didn’t feel safe in this place he called home.“Master, could they have encountered Sir Dan?”Village Head Samoa wasn’t the only one in this room. There were three other figures with him as well. These three people – who were Village Head Samoa’s personal guards and referred to as the Hands of Samoa – were all dressed in leather armor. Since this village was small and unimpressive, it was very difficult to procure a set of armor, even common leather ones. But the armor the men in this room were wearing weren’t made from common leather. These kind of leather armors were knit with the skins of very tough Magical Beasts. It took ver
