The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

All of them were shocked to see that the teammate they thought would die early on was still alive and was even getting points.

"Just how is this possible?!" exclaimed Ava, confused by the notification she had just gotten.

"I don't know, maybe he lied to us because he didn't want to show us what he was able to do," responded Gus.

"Who cares, let's speed up we can't let him get more points than us. We're supposed to be faster than him," said James, angry at the performance they were putting up.

Aiden, again, hid and pounced on a zombie that was alone, it was now the third time and he was getting more efficient because he was getting used to how zombies behaved.

However, he started to slow down because he couldn't find zombies who were alone. He started to ask himself if he should start attacking groups of zombies.

His mind was trying to find a way to fight multiple zombies simultaneously, but it always came back to the same problem, his weapon. The dull knife he took as a weapon was truly garbage, if the zombies were not alone when he attacked them, they would've started to gang up on him and he would probably fail to kill them because they would overpower him.

If only he could find a better weapon, he would be able to kill zombies at a much faster pace than right now. But he had no alternative, so he decided to continue what he was doing.

However, there was a big problem, the sheer number of zombies was massive. If Aiden and the others didn't get rid of them soon, they would reach the center of the city.

The monsters reaching the center of the city was a big problem because the monsters would be able to go behind the rest of Aiden's teammates. That's why Aiden decided to go faster and not waste any more time thinking. He let his instinct as an assassin take over his body, his concentration seemed to be at its peak.

An aura was starting to appear in the air, it was dark red, just like blood, and it seemed thick.

[You have created a new skill: ???]

This aura seemed to cause a reaction in the system, a message seemed to appear but Aiden wasn't looking at it and had no idea it had even appeared. The only thing on his mind was killing the zombies as silently and quickly as possible because he couldn't lose time anymore.

It seemed that this instinct changed the way he fought, but he didn't go hide in a building after each kill, he continued attacking the zombies close to him at a pace that wasn't anything like earlier.

The weapon he had in his hand didn't seem to matter anymore, he was now able to slash everything in front of him with no problem.

One slash had the same meaning as one kill.

A couple of seconds later, no zombie still had their head.

The aura he was emitting was now starting to dissipate and he was starting to gain control of his mind, not knowing how he had achieved all of those things just now.

It seemed he had completely forgotten about the actions he had just taken.

'What happened just now?' questioned Aiden, looking around and seeing all the dead zombies around him not knowing that he was, in fact, him who killed them all.

Ava and the others were awaiting the start of the second wave at the other gate entrance because they had now finished killing the zombies that were coming their way. They were now watching the messages popping up telling them that Aiden was killing zombies, but the speed at which the messages weren't normal by any means.

They started questioning his identity, and where he came from.

The shock in their eyes from earlier could still be seen.

***

Suddenly, a message appeared that announced that they had killed all the monsters from the first wave and that the second wave would now start.

[The Second Wave will now start.]

Finally killing all the zombies, Aiden decided to open the rankings to see how many points the rest of his team had gotten.

[Rankings]

[Aiden: 13 points]

[Ava: 7 points]

[James: 5 points]

[Gus: 1 point]

It seemed Aiden was doing far better than his teammates, they couldn't even, as a team, beat him who was all alone.

As he was looking at the rankings, he started hearing the sounds of monsters coming from all around him. But it wasn't the same as earlier, it seemed that the monsters had changed this time around, Aiden could hear sounds that resembled those of wolves, bears, and animals in general.

Aiden decided to apply the same strategy as earlier, hide and wait for them to be alone to kill one of them. But the enemies coming this time would probably be much stronger than before since they didn't look as slow and weak as the zombies.

It seemed fighting against them would be much more difficult this time around.

A couple of seconds after the monsters entered the city, Aiden spotted a lone wolf completely isolated from the others. Seeing this opportunity, he had no choice but to take it.

He activated [Shadow Steps] which made him walk silently so that the wolf couldn't hear him. The skill seemed to have worked, the wolf was completely unaware that right behind him there was a man trying to kill it.

Aiden started to move his knife upward to generate power when striking the neck of the lone wolf. He knew it wouldn't be able to kill it in one strike but it didn't matter, he wanted to hurt it as much as possible before it realized its presence.

The strike he had been preparing was released on the neck of the wolf, but it didn't do much, a small amount of blood was coming out of his neck. However, there was no reaction from the wolf, he seemed intact not even looking hurt from the strike of Aiden.

Maybe it was because of the nonexistent muscle on the body of Aiden that his attack did no damage. However, the fact that Aiden had awakened meant that he, now, had way more power than a normal human being even if he only had one point in each of his stat. Being Awakened made their physical abilities superior.

An unawakened if compared with the weakest awakened would not even have a fifth of their strength which caused disparity in society.

Seeing the result of his attack, it seemed as if the fight against the lone wolf wouldn't be an easy one.
