The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



[Your skill <Mind of an Assassin> has been forcefully deactivated.]

This was the result of being hit by the arrow created solely of mana.

It seemed like the arrow Emma had launched wasn't a normal one as Aiden could only feel pain from his insides.

'What the hell just hit me?' he thought confused reading the message from the system.

'Can she deactivate any skill that she wants?' 

However, if that was one of the power of that arrow it wouldn't matter much against an opponent like Aiden as he rarely even used skills.

'Shit, another arrow,' he thought seeing something at a fast speed toward him.

It seemed to be a normal one this time as Aiden could perceive it easily dodging it by doing a quick step to his right.

Then, Aiden looked up and started searching from where that arrow had come from.

He needed to have an idea of where she was before acting and moving around.

He needed to plan how to get rid of her.

Then as he continued thinking, another arrow aimed at his head came out on his upper left flying down at a high speed.

He didn't even concentrate on the arrow as he simply dashed forward in the general direction of where the arrow had come from.

After all, it wasn't simple to spot someone who was hiding in one of the multiple trees of this forest.

Sure, Aiden had the match-up in terms of being close-range, and her long-range. 

But the environment of this fight clearly favored Emma as she could hide herself easily always changing spots without being noticed.

Aiden running was still looking up trying to see a glimpse of her but without success.

'I need a change of plans, this simply isn't going to work. I can't even spot her,' he thought looking around himself.

As he started thinking about another plan, another arrow came toward him but this time from his right.

It seemed like Emma had gotten enough time to go around the other side in that small amount of time.

She clearly wasn't second in the parkour challenge for nothing it seemed.

'I need to be faster than her just like earlier,' Aiden thought as he remembered that he was close to catching her earlier but then she accelerated like crazy out of nowhere.

But he noticed that she was panting a little after accelerating like that. 

His decision was made, he needed to increase the speed at which he was going right now. 

That was basically his only solution as he didn't have time to find anything else. 

He was in a fight to the death right now, so he couldn't sit down and think about a better alternative.

Then, he decided that he would also go on one of the trees that surrounded them, making him harder to spot and hit.

As he landed on one of the branches that were close to where Emma had shot her arrow the last time.

He saw what seemed to be a black figure jumping from one tree to another without losing any time in doing so.I think you should take a look at

She was minimizing her movements to the utmost trying to reduce the chances of Aiden catching up to her.

But it was simply the inevitable.

Finding her, he didn't lose any time and also jumped from one tree to another.

But there was one thing that was different between the two of them.

The time that Emma took to jump to another tree, well... it was the time that Aiden took to jump two.

It was only a matter of time before Aiden would catch up to her.

Sometimes, Emma quickly turned her body and shot an arrow at Aiden but when doing so she lost her momentum and made Aiden catch up to her even faster.

Those arrows sent by Emma would also need to be dodged by Aiden which caused him to slow down.

But after some time, Aiden was once again at a distance where he could try to strike at Emma.

She was still a bit far from him but striking should be possible.

'Is she going to use her skill again?' he thought already expecting her to do so.

But she didn't do anything of the sort, she turned around getting another weapon out of nowhere.

Aiden couldn't help but be amazed at how she got things in her hand out of nowhere every time.

She now had another weapon in her hands, which wasn't a bow or anything of the sort.

It was a dagger, just like the one Aiden was using.

'Is she stupid? Does she think she can beat me with a dagger?'

However, Emma couldn't have known that Aiden was a past assassin who had trained how to get better and better with a dagger especially.

Then, another type of fight started. 

It was the fight of an expert against a beginner.

The moves she was executing weren't bad at all and she had clearly practiced using a dagger before. 

But it couldn't match the experience Aiden had with the weapon, having spent years practicing with it.

Aiden could literally see through all her moves.

'Fuck, what can I do now?' Emma thought as she kept trying to attack Aiden as much as he could not letting him the chance to land a hit on her.

Because she knew from the way he was handling her attacks that if she slowed even for a millisecond then she would lose.

'Do I really need to use that skill again?' she asked herself as she knew that her acceleration speed came at a great cost.

That skill of hers which made her go a lot faster than she would normally would cost 10 Mana Points, which was almost half of her total reserves.

She knew that if she used it now, she wouldn't have any mana left for the rest of the fight as she would have used it all.

'But if I do use it, what else can I do? It's too easy for him.'
