Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats-Chapter 216 - Killer’s Mark
216: Killer’s Mark
216: Killer’s Mark
“What?
There is a Golden Core Realm Assassin in the Secret Realm wanting to kill me?
And he is currently rushing towards me?”
The second thing that the Natural Spirit wanted to tell Ethan was that there was a powerful assassin wanting to kill him.
Hearing that, Ethan was shocked and asked Primor for more details about it.
“Yes, Master Kai.
A week ago, he entered the Secret Realm a few minutes after you entered.
After that, he had been waiting near the entrance while occasionally muttering a few things about [Killer’s Mark] and killing a killer.”
The tiny lion spirit quickly shared all the things it had heard from that assassin, making Ethan bitterly smile, ‘Who wants me dead this time?’
He had yet to figure out who the mastermind was who hired the first assassin when he had just transmigrated.
He had to die to sever his ties with the [Eternal Shadow Guild], but now, he was being targeted by it again.
‘Wait a second… am I being targeted for killing Shadow Bee?’
Suddenly, Ethan realized the reason why the [Eternal Shadow Guild] was after him.
Although Ethan revived Shadow Bee, the Shadow Mark on Shadow Bee’s body disappeared.
This means, according to the [Eternal Shadow Guild], Shadow Bee was dead.
‘So, if my guess is correct, the Shadow Mark that has disappeared from his body has turned into [Killer’s Mark] and attached itself to my body.’
He knew about [Soul Whisper], which would inform the death of a Guild Member to the nearest stronger Guild Member.
So, with some thinking and guessing, Ethan figured out the [Killer’s Mark] and how it appeared on his body.
‘I wonder whether this [Killer’s Mark] appears only for the Silver Rank and above assassins like Shadow Bee.’
Although he didn’t hear about the [Killer’s Mark] from Shadow Bee, Ethan got some good information about the [Eternal Shadow Guild]…
especially the ranks of the assassins.
The assassins in the guild are classified into various ranks, starting from Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Eternal.
Depending on the assassins’ cultivation and the missions they accomplish, the assassins will be promoted.
The ones that Ethan encountered in the beginning were the Bronze Rank assassins, who might have been promoted to Silver Rank after completing a few more missions.
The assassin with the cultivation talent [Bountiful Harvesting] was a Silver Rank assassin, just like Shadow Bee.
‘However, according to Shadow Bee, as long as he breaks through to the Golden Core Realm, he would have been promoted to Gold Rank Assassin.’
‘The one who wants to kill me right now must be a Gold Rank Assassin.’
Despite knowing that the Gold Rank Assassin was rushing towards him to kill him, Ethan didn’t bother to move.
It was because no matter where he ran, Ethan knew he could not escape with the [Killer’s Mark].
So, he stood still as many thoughts went through his mind.
‘I can understand how he was able to track me to the Berserk Beast Realm until last week, but he could no longer track me, right?’
Since Ethan died last week, he thought that the [Killer’s Mark] on his body should also have disappeared along with his death.
‘It is going to be a problem if I can’t remove the [Killer’s Mark] from my body.’
Thinking about the [Killer’s Mark] on his body, Ethan rubbed his head in frustration.
Ethan was not worried about death, but the problem was that even after his revival, if the [Killer’s Mark] was still on his body, then no matter where he went, the Gold Rank Assassins would continue to come after him.
‘If I kill him, the [Killer’s Mark] on my body might become even denser, attracting more Gold Rank Assassins or even Diamond Rank Assassins.’
‘What should I do?’
With the mastery of his cultivation techniques, Ethan could easily escape from a low-level or even mid-level Golden Core Realm Cultivator and might even kill one if he caught them off guard.
But it was going to be a problem if the enemy was a High-level Golden Core Realm.
“Master Kai, although I am not sure, that Gold Rank Assassin has a cultivation of at least Level 5 Golden Core Realm.”
Seeing Ethan frown, the Natural Spirit tried to share more information, hoping that something might help Ethan come out of his current predicament.
“Hm… anything else, Primor?”
Ethan asked the Natural Spirit for more information.
“He seems to be in a hurry to kill you… He is coming towards you at an incredible speed.”
“Judging from his speed, he will reach here in just 10 minutes.”
“If only I had my full power, I could have easily annihilated him.”
.
.
.
The closer the Gold Rank Assassin came, the more anxious the Lion Spirit became, and at the same time, it blamed itself for being so weak and useless.
Back when the Secret Realm was still called the Primordial Beast Realm, it was on par with a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.
So, in the current situation where it could not even take care of a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, Primor was filled with mixed emotions.
“It’s alright, Primor.
Just focus on the assassin and see whether you can get any information from him.”
Ethan patted the tiny lion spirit and asked it to calm down before spying on the incoming assassin to get any useful information from him.
“Yes.”
Maybe it was Ethan’s calm and composed look, but the tiny lion spirit became calm in no time and hurriedly spied on the Gold Rank Assassin.
Although it lost all its abilities and strength, it was still a Natural Spirit of the Secret Realm, and nothing escaped its eyes.
So, it focused on the incoming assassin, hoping to get any information from him.
“Master Kai, he is muttering in a very low voice that I am unable to hear clearly.”
Primor’s words disappointed Ethan as the tiny lion spirit continued to speak, “But, I heard some words like [Killer’s Mark], Unexplored Secret Realm… Information… Kill Him.]”
Although the words were all jumbled and didn’t make sense to Primor, it was different for Ethan, as some words made his eyes light up.
