Chapter 21: Rewards
After some moment later, Supreme sighed as he sat up, he turned to Reaper and shook his head.
"Why are you lying down here? Don't tell me you are also exhausted"
Reaper shot on its feet instantly and stood straight beside him.
"Hahaha... look at you?" Supreme slowly stood up and look around. "It's time to get out of here"
Reaper tilted its head, totally confused. It simply didn't understand why its lord said they should leave. 'Get out from here? How the hell can we get out from the planet?'
Supreme saw its confused look, but didn't say anything, he walked towards the dead behemoth and pulled out his sword.
"Now where is the sheath?" He scratched his head as he looked around the place.
"I shouldn't have thrown it aside"
"Reaper, help me find my sword sheath, remember, it's golden."
Reaper nodded, and shot into the air to look for its Lord's golden sheath.
"Now system, show me the permanent cheat I gain"
{Permanent Cheat: [Brain wave.]}
"Brain wave... What is it description?"
{Permanent Cheat ~ [Brain wave description]: make the host able to lift any target he set his mind on.}
{Note: cheat has three stages.}
"This cheat is dope! What are the stages?"
{First stage, unlock: host could lift anytime with his mind.}
{Second stage: LOCK: host will have the power to destroy any target's brain, turning them into a brainless fool.}
{Third stage, LOCK: host will have the power to hear the target's thought, no matter if it's a human or monster.}
{Note: it can be resisted by any stronger target.}
There was silence for a whole minute, as Supreme just stared at the stages with opened jaw, "the second and third stages are overkill! How can I unlock it?"
{The stronger you get, the more chance you have to unlock it.}
"That is a bummer, it means... I won't be able to unlock it for a while, oh... you said I unlock a function, what is it?"
{Host's Profile}
"I can check my profile with you too?" Supreme muttered in mild surprise.
{Yes host.}
"Then show me"
{Name: Michael Brian.}
{Game Name: Supreme.}
{Level: LV 1.}
{Games win: 1.}
{Games lose: 0.}
{Strength: 10.}
{Defense: 10.}
{Agility: 7.}
{Endurance: 5.}
{Mana: LOCK.}
{Intelligence: 60%}
{Points earned: 44.}
"What are the use of these points?"
{Points can be used to increase your attributes, that is: strength, defense, agility, endurance and Mana.}
"It looks like I can only gain them after I win a game."
{Yes, and point is calculated with the number of opponent killed in a game, Poisonous Queen gave you one point, the nine fallen demons gave you 15 points, the black bear gave you 3 points, the 10 scavengers wolves gave you 10 points, while calamity gave you 5.}
"Ok then, put everything in strength."
{Successful.}
Supreme felt his body filled with power and he smiled calmly. "This is what I am talking about" As soon as he said this, Reaper landed before him with his sheath and a piece of a... human's leg?.
"What the hell are you doing with that?!!" Supreme yelled at it.
Reaper was about to take a big bite from the leg, before hearing it Lord's roar, it quickly brought it out of its mouth and gave a crestfallen look.
Supreme shook his head and said in defeat. "Fine, be done with it! We are leaving soon"
Reaper nodded vigorously, as it dive inside its food.
Supreme turned his head to the behemoth, and observed it calmly. "I will test my new skill on you, to know how high I can lift a body" he thought, and block out any other thought from his mind, He then concentrated on the behemoth.
After some failed try, the Huge body of the monster slowly rose from the ground, ascending slowly.
Too slow for the likes of Supreme. 'Can't this move higher, or faster?!!'
{Don't forget you are a LV 1 player, and the target you are trying to lift is a LV 15 monster.}
"But it's dead already!!"
{It doesn't matter.}
He tried again placing his full concentration in it, but could only lift the monster 5 meters high, and he dropped the monster with a BANG! Back on the ground out of frustration.
"Ahh!! I need to get stronger, even with the point boast I can't lift it pass 5 meters!" He yelled, massaging his temple. "Why do my head hurt? It's not like I am studying"
{The more you use the cheat on a stronger target, the more your head hurt.}
{Take it like a side effect.}
"I don't have your time" supreme muttered and turned to Reaper, who was now feasting on a human's arm.
"What...?"
Supreme was so stunned that he couldn't mutter a coherent word. "How did you get that?!! Now throw it away! We are going!" He yelled at it.
Reaper quickly threw away the half-eaten hand and nodded. Supreme stared at the hand and discovered a silver ring on the pinky finger. 'That is Sara's right arm.'
He shook his head trying to remove any thought about Sara and turned to Reaper. "Let's go."
'Does she even have a family?' He thought as he said to AI. "Send me back to my lobby."
_______
BACK IN THE CITY.
"Boss, you called for me" a muscular man with black hair and green eyes asked.
He was currently in their boss's office in the assassin guild building. The office light was a little dim, and the size of the office was just 10 meters long and 8 meters large, with two couches on the right side, and four big flowers vest at the four corners of the office, filled with different exotic flowers.
The office only had one window which shows the city below, A desk was placed in the center of the office with two chairs for the visitors. The muscular man who just spoken stood calmly, between the two chairs. Staring at the man who was currently sitting opposite him.
The man sitting on the chair, stared at the muscular man with his blue eyes and nodded in satisfaction. "Atel, you are one of the strongest in our shadow assassins' guild, so I am giving you this job."
The muscular man who goes by the name Atel nodded without saying a word.
"The job is easy, and the employer gave three months life times to complete it., so complete the job perfectly, and I will give you a month lifetime."
Atel became excited hearing his guild leader word and quickly asked. "And, what is the job boss?"
"You are to kill a young man and bring his sister to us... we haven't had fun in a long time." The guild leader said with a smirk.
"Don't worry boss, I will complete the job perfectly." Atel nodded with a smirk.
"I know, these are the information of the young man, there is nothing much to look at, because he is a useless guy. That why I know you can complete this task. I like you that why I am giving you the opportunity to earn lifetimes, don't fail me." The guild leader said, as he pushed a document placed on the desk with two of his fingers to Atel.
Atel nodded and picked up the document and open its first page. A picture of a thin young man with dark black hair and dark brown eyes, was revealed to him.
Seeing the weak looking guy on the photo, Atel chuckled silently and nodded. "Don't worry boss, it will be done, and I will bring the girl." As he said this he was turning the pages of the document, and stopped on a picture of a beautiful young girl with dark brown eyes and hair. 'So beautiful?, can't wait to have a taste of her.'
"Now go"
Atel nodded and walked out of the office to complete the super easy task.
After he left the office, the boss relaxed on his chair with a smile on his face. He was already visioning himself on the girl.
He took a pack of cigarettes from his desk, removed one and place it between his lips then lighted it. "Simplest job ever" he muttered, releasing rings of smoke.

He looked around his plain lobby and nodded, while Reaper was totally perplexed. 'Where the hell am I?' It was so curious that it started walking around the place.
Supreme didn't mind and asked AI. "Where is my rewards?"
Supreme stared at the notifications, floating in Front of him a little dumbfounded. "What do you mean by broadcast?! And why did I get only 500 In-game diamonds?!"
"Ok, then why only one year of lifetime?"
Supreme just shook his head, 'At least I have the cheating system.'
"Ok, do as you wish, I want to see my sister." He turned to Reaper. "Stay here"
Reaper nodded.
"AI log me out of the game"
