BXBX NOVEL Chapter 624 Warning The Government
Chapter 624 Warning The Government
Drawing their weapons, they kept their guard up around Shiro.
"Are you the one who caused all of this?" The Guild Master walked up with a frown.
"Yeah. There were demons so I killed them." Shiro replied. Her voice was deep due to the voice changer she had applied on herself. After all, everyone thinks that the Rogue Assassin is a guy.
"And the shockwave just now?" The Guild Master frowned before pointing towards the ceiling which now had a giant open hole.
"Collateral damage. Just grab some people with an earth attunement and you can patch it up easily. You might want to fill in the other tunnels too." Shiro gestured to the tunnels that could be seen around the room.
Nodding her head, the Guild Master looked towards Shiro once more.
"So you’re the famous Rogue Assassin that everyone was talking about a while back. Care to tell us why you’re here in this city?"
"None of your business. If you don’t mind me, I’ll be on my way now." Shiro shook her head and stood up.
However, just as she got off the rock, a tier 5 magic circle appeared beneath her as a cage of sorts was formed.
Clenching her fists a little, she noticed that her mana seemed to be weakened inside this cage.
Raising her eyebrow from behind her mask, she looked towards the Guild Master.
"What’s the meaning of this?"
"Don’t take this the wrong way. There are many questions that we want to ask you after all."
"Questions come at a price and that price might be your life. Choose wisely." Shiro threatened as she revealed the hand cannon that she had on her waist. Pulling the gun out, she aimed it towards the woman.
Seeing Shiro aim her gun towards the Guild Master, several adventurers readied their weapons and spells before aiming it towards Shiro.
Tensions were high as both sides had their weapons drawn.
"Before we talk, why don’t you give me your name? Or would you rather me call you by Rogue Assassin?"
"We don’t need to talk since our discussion has ended."
Changing the aim of her gun to the cage, she changed the bullet to one that was enhanced with Celestial Path.
*BANG!!!! PING!!!
Shattering the cage into pieces, she grabbed a second hand cannon in preparation for combat.
"Attack! Make sure you don’t destroy the guns!" One of the adventurers called out as Shiro recognised their outfit to be one that is usually worn by someone who works for the government.
"Are you coming at me with the intent to kill? If that’s the case, then don’t blame me for being cruel." Shiro chuckled.
Disappearing from her spot, she reappeared behind the man who had shouted the order and lifted him up by the neck.
Aiming the gun at his mouth, she could see fear in his eyes but his will to fight wasn’t over.
Creating a tier 5 magic circle, he wanted to blast her arm away.
"Wrong move." Shiro shook her head and pulled the trigger.
*BANG!
Piercing the top of his mouth, the bullet shredded the upper half of his head.
Throwing the corpse to the left, she jumped up into the air and summoned several guns around her with each one pointing at a different adventurer.
"Do you still want to fight? Because if we do, I can tell you that there is only going to be one person walking out of this cavern and your chances aren’t high." Shiro narrowed her eyes,
Releasing some of her killing intent, she could see some of the adventurers dropping their weapons.
Biting the lips, the Guild Master looked up at Shiro.
"Do you know how many people have their eyes on you?"
"No but unless they’re tier 6, I don’t care. Tell your government that they can’t have my guns. And if they insist, I can arrange a meeting with the grim reaper for them." Shiro warned.
Dismissing her guns, she jumped into the rift and disappeared from the location.
"Kaaa!!!" releasing the breath that she didn’t know she was holding, the Guild Master panted for a moment before calming herself down.
Understanding that the Rogue Assassin was much stronger than what she had expected, she bit her nail.
"He can kill a tier 5 adventurer with a single hit if they’re not ready for it." She muttered before turning to the other adventurers.
"Did someone record everything?" She asked.
Seeing a few people nod, she sighed in relief.
"Send the clip to the government. Tell them that they should re-evaluate him." She ordered.
###
Removing her disguise, Shiro landed just outside of the city where she could see the party resting up for now.
"Seems like everything went smoothly." Shiro smiled.
"Yup. What about you? Did anything happen or did they back off peacefully?" Lyrica asked.
"Well... I may have killed one guy and threatened the government." Shiro scratched her cheeks.
"Ah...."
"God damnit Shiro. It’s been 3 minutes!" Madison sighed.
"Well it’s not my fault that they wanted my guns. They didn’t come at me with friendly intentions." Shiro stuck her tongue out.
"So what do we do now? We’ve essentially solved both the problems with this city." Lyrica asked.
"I’m planning to stick around for a day or two to see how people react to the updated simulators. After that, I think It’s finally time to visit my parents." Shiro replied.
"So basically two days to indulge yourself in sadistic desires before acting pure for your parents?" Aarim raised her eyebrow.
". . ."
"So I’m right then." Aarim shrugged, taking Shiro’s silence for a yes.
{That girl’s pretty spot on. I’d say she’s gotten used to you and can somewhat prepare herself.} Nimue chuckled.
’Well I’m pretty nervous about meeting mum and dad so I want to enjoy myself a little before going you know.} Shiro pouted a little.
{Why don’t you act cute and call them Mommy and Daddy?} Nimue laughed.
’I’d rather not.’
{Aw, a shame. Think about it this way. What if, you had an argument with Attie and he left your side for a bit. After a while, he comes back and says ’I’m sorry mommy, I won’t be bad again.’ How would you feel?}
’. . . Ok maybe I might resort to that if the situation demands it but think about it like this. I’m a grown ass woman now do you really think it’ll work?’
{A grown ass woman who’s not even a year old yet.}
’Whatever. I’m pretty sure acting childish as someone who looks like she’s 20 ain’t gonna work.’
{You never know. Just keep a note on it haha.}
Ignoring Nimue, Shiro led the party back to the city.
Remembering that she had Fabian place the simulators in a separate training hall so that he didn’t need to give money to the guild, Shiro went to ask him where the training hall was.
But when she got there, she saw him with a pile of complaints on the desk.
"I presume that the simulators are working well." She chuckled.
"Yes. The only thing that isn’t working is how many people haven’t completed super easy yet. They’ve all just been turned to paste. Some over confident people wanted to try hard and let’s just say their blood was evaporated when the test began." Fabian sighed.
"So it’s going great then." Shiro laughed.
"I guess. Look at all these complaints about the validity of the gradings. They’re saying that they’re much harder than what it is and that the recording of Miss Lyrica doing the test is a lie due to how easy it seems. After all, some people thought that they were stronger than a dainty looking girl but failed miserably."
"Ha, serves them right. Since they’re complaining about it so much, I think I might get the rest of the party to give it a try to prove things live. Who knows, it might even attract some people from other cities." Shiro chuckled.
"Oh that has already happened." Fabian said, showing her a webpage.
[Impossible Challenge Completed By The Adventurer Known As Lyrica. Is This Real?]
[The Impossible Challenge Is Rising In Popularity As Many Rush to Vatican City To Try It For Themselves.]
Raising her eyebrow, Shiro found it quite amusing.
"I’ve placed the training hall next to the teleport shrine so that it can be accessed with ease and I must say, other than the grading, the revenue I get from it is impressive. I can finally renovate some of the orphanages now." Fabian smiled gratefully.
"That’s good. Prepare for more revenue since I’m going to clear it with the party. Once they see a party complete it one by one, more people should be spurred on to complete it." Shiro smiled before leaving the room.
Plus, the tests don’t focus on levels but rather their control and mastery. So even a level 20 can give it a try. Therefore, this can be used to discover new talents that had been buried under the masses.
"Right then girls, are you ready to show some people how to properly clear the trials?" Shiro smiled as the party nodded their heads. With the exception of Helion and Chen Yu, the rest of them were confident in completing the tests.
