Hitman with a Badass System

While Ricky was heading for the dark ocean, two giant trolls were rampaging through an empty, barren land. One could see nothing but barren land except the two trolls. One troll was icy blue that stood twelve feet tall, while the second was red and stood at least fifteen feet tall. These trolls sported a set of large tusks on the edge of their faces. Each troll had a big and heavy stone totem engraved with a rune that granted it a specific elemental power. The blue one, for example, had a totem that granted it ice elemental power. In stark contrast, the red troll's totem granted it elemental firepower.

Despite their elemental differences, the trolls had a common enemy and glazing anger within their eyes. The ground contained several crates due to the trolls hitting the ground with their heavy totems. Of course, they missed their targets. Otherwise, the trolls wouldn't be roaring and swinging their totems left and right. With their gigantic bodies and Half Immortal stage cultivation, these trolls could reduce any kingdom in Elon to the ground. Fortunately, these trolls were trapped within a pocket dimension.

"Is that all you got, you fucking ugly pieces of shit?" At that moment, an annoyed voice echoed through the barren land. The trolls roared in anger as though they had understood the meaning of those words. A young woman clad in shiny black armor with a skull engraved on the chest descended to the ground. Her armor glistened under the starry sky. One could see runes radiating a dim light on her armor. A dark skull mask covered her face, but a few strands of raven black hair escaped the mask and flowed down on her shoulder. A long black scythe dangled on her back while she held a crimson-red spear in her hand.

Her long black coat covering the shiny armor fluttered in the wind. The trolls roared, looking at the young woman. They banged the ground with their totems to vent their anger. The girl slowly removed the skull masking, revealing her angelic face. She was none other than Gaya herself without wearing the mask of Aelia. It had been a year since she wore that mask. For the last eleven months, she had been going in and out of this pocket dimension, searching for the Dark Lord's armor piece.

She hoped she was getting close to the armor piece. She cursed the past Dark Lord for filling this dimension with all kinds of weird yet powerful enemies. Without the teleportation scrolls proved to her by the Dark Lord, she couldn't have reached this point.

Gaya closed her eyes for a moment as the golden spear turned jade. The spear let out a sizzling noise, reacting with her poison. Gaya threw the poison-covered spear at the blue troll. The spear soared through the air. The troll swung the totem in its hand to deflect the spear, yet it was too slow. The spear hit the troll in the chest.

"GRGHHH!" The troll roared. Meanwhile, the red troll opened its mouth, breathing fire like a dragon. Gaya simply raised her hand, summoning a jade shield around her. The fire brushed past the shield. She slowly walked toward the fire-breathing troll. The blue troll was too focused on pulling out the spear stuck into its chest.

"ARRGHHHH!' The fire troll roared. It raised the totem high in the air to bring it straight down upon Gaya. When the totem was just a few inches away from her head, she dashed at the troll at lightning-quick speed. The troll did not expect her to disappear suddenly. She leaped into the air. In mid-air, she took the scythe from her back and plunged the pointy end into the troll's neck.

The troll roared as boiling hot blood splashed out of its neck. She dropped down from the troll's neck, holding the scythe tight. As a result, she cut the troll from its neck to its gut. The fire troll went berserk in pain and anger. It violently swung the totem in all directions. It kept banging the totem against the ground, sending shock wave after shock wave, Several deep cracks appeared in the ground. Gaya leaped behind to put some distance between her and the troll. Meanwhile, the blue troll finally pulled out the spear. The troll possessed enough intelligence to try to bend the spear.

Gaya quickly raised her hand as a rune on the spear. The troll's eyes went wide as the spear flew out of its hands. Gaya jumped onto the spear and used it as a hoverboard to reach the blue troll. Both the trolls retaliated by breathing ice and fire at Gaya. The stream of ice and fire produced a vapor hot enough to melt iron blocks.

Gaya leaped higher in the air, escaping the hot steam. When she was right above the trolls' heads, she waved her hands as a cloud of thick green mist covered the trolls. The trolls breathed in the poisonous air. Soon, they began to cough, which sounded like explosions.

The trolls couldn't breathe. They coughed to the point their movements became wobbly. But to Gaya's shock, the fire-breathing troll stomped the ground with enough force to create sparks. The sparks met with the poisonous cloud, resulting in an explosion. At that exact moment, the blue troll breathed cold ice, creating a shield around the red troll and itself.

"I hate when they use their heads," Gaya rolled her eyes. After the explosion, the green mist vanished into thin air. Gaya landed almost ten meters away from the two trolls.

The two trolls rubbed the ground with their feet, threatening to dash at Gaya. She cracked her neck. The next moment, she tossed the spear and the scythe to the ground. The trolls were slightly surprised. After throwing away her weapons, she rolled up her sleeves.

Up to this moment, she was going easy on the trolls. But that was about to change. Looking at the trolls, she decided to use her new spells. A silvery light enveloped Gaya's wrists. Gaya dashed at the trolls, breaking the sound barrier itself. Her speed created a shock wave that formed a clear circle around where she was standing. The troll was taken aback by her speed. Compared to the trolls, her small stature made her more agile than the trolls.

She leaped into the air as targeting the red troll. Both the trolls swung their totems left and right, but Gaya swayed her body to the side, easily avoiding the totems. She raised both her hands toward the red troll as a silvery energy beam shot out of her hand. A bright light flashed across the barren lands, making the trolls go blind temporarily. The beam went straight through the totem and penetrated the troll's chest. The troll groaned, collapsing down. Gaya somersaulted in mid-air before landing on the troll's shoulder. The troll quickly reacted by trying to swat her like an insect. However, Gaya moved easily behind its neck. She then placed her hands on the troll's ear, firing another blast of energy beam. The troll's roar echoed through the barren lands. Anyone could tell how much pain the troll was in by its roar.

Gaya did not show any mercy. She fired another energy beam, but this time, she aimed at the blue troll through the hole in the red troll's head. The beam hit the blue troll before it could hit Gaya with the totem. Instead, the energy beam hit the blue troll's totem. As a result, it lost the totem as well as its balance. Gaya quickly reached out for the scythe as it flew straight back into her hands. She swung the scythe with enough force to cleave the troll's head right off its shoulder. Hot blood splashed across the ground and on her face. The troll's body twitched uncontrollably. Seeing the troll's death, the other roared with fury. Its eyes lit up with icy blue energy.

Its power shot through the roof. Within a few seconds, the troll went from Half Immortal stage level 2 to level 5 which meant the troll had become three levels stronger than Gaya. The troll's sudden power up did not surprise Gaya. She was prepared to face it.

She was about to fight the blue troll when an ethereal cobra made of crimson-red energy descended from the sky. The troll was completely off guard. The snake was several times bigger and more powerful than the troll. To Gaya's shock, the snake coiled around the troll, making the troll roar in agony. The snake slowly squeezed the troll as it started to puke blood. Blood and guts gushed out of its body. Little by little, the troll lost its life to a gruesome death. Finally, the light of life faded away from its eyes.

When the snake faded away from existence, the troll turned into a bloody mashed pulp. The air reeked of its blood and guts.

Gaya rolled her eyes. She swung the scythe to remove the blood on its blade.

"I had that under control," Gaya raised her voice. For a few moments, she heard nothing. Silence fell over them until a gentle yet dominant voice answered Gaya.

"You were taking too much time," said the voice. Gaya slowly turned around to see a woman resembling Gaya and wearing the same armor as her descending from the sky.

"No I wasn't, mother," Gaya said with an annoyed smile. Still, Gaya didn't forget to greet Adelia with a big bear hug. Just like Ashton Kane said, Adelia revealed herself right after Michael revealed himself to the outside world. Gaya met Adelia when Michael moved the floating mountain to the southern continent. Since Michael had a cure for vampirism, he cured her without breaking a sweat with the system's help. However, no matter how many times Gaya asked, Adelia never told Gaya about her real father.

To everyone's surprise, Adelia was already a Half Immortal on the verge of entering the Immortal stage when they met her. Ever since she joined the Dark Lord's army, Adelia had been helping the Dark Lord find the god-killing arrows. A year later, Adelia found one with the help of the Dark Lord himself.
