Return Of The Strongest Assassin: Assassin's Chronicles

In the heart of Seoul, where the city's vibrant lights cast shadows deep enough to conceal even the darkest secrets, Hyeong Shin emerges from retirement with a single, unyielding purpose: to eliminate Michael, the most dangerous adversary he has ever faced. At 70 years old, Hyeong Shin is no ordinary assassin; he is a legend with 63 years of experience, honed by countless missions carried out with cold precision under the command of a shadowy organization known as "The SSS ranks."Michael was once the leader of The Circle, a brother-in-arms to Hyeong Shin. But the bond of brotherhood shattered when Michael betrayed the organization, seeking to seize power for himself. His betrayal left The Circle fractured, vulnerable, and desperate to reclaim control. Knowing that only one man could succeed in eliminating Michael, The Circle turns to Hyeong Shin, their greatest asset.However, age has taken its toll on Hyeong Shin. Though his skills are unmatched, his body no longer possesses the agility and strength it once did. Desperate to complete the mission and settle the score with the man who had betrayed everything they once stood for, Hyeong Shin undergoes a perilous ritual that restores his youth and vitality. The procedure is as ancient as it is dangerous, but the transformation is successful. Rejuvenated, Hyeong Shin is ready to take on the challenge that lies ahead.The mission is clear: track down Michael, who has established himself as an untouchable power in the underworld, and eliminate him. But this task is far from straightforward. Michael is no ordinary target; he is a mastermind with resources and connections that run deep. Every step Hyeong Shin takes is met with resistance, from assassins loyal to Michael to traps set to lure him into a deadly game of cat and mouse. As Hyeong Shin moves through the city’s dark alleys and towering skyscrapers, the narrative delves into the history between him and Michael. Flashbacks reveal a time when they fought side by side, bound by a shared loyalty to The Circle. Michael’s betrayal is a wound that cuts deep, driving Hyeong Shin not just to complete the mission, but to confront the personal betrayal that has haunted him for years.With The Circle backing him, Hyeong Shin is armed with the best intelligence and resources available. But the deeper he dives into the mission, the more he realizes that The Circle’s motives are not as straightforward as they seem.

Loyalties are tested, and the line between friend and foe blurs as Hyeong Shin navigates a web of deception, all while keeping his eyes on the ultimate prize—Michael’s head. The climax of the story is a breathtaking showdown between Hyeong Shin and Michael, set in a labyrinthine fortress that Michael has turned into his stronghold. The battle is as much psychological as it is physical, with both men using every ounce of their training and experience to outmaneuver the other. The Circle watches from the shadows, their true intentions only becoming clear as the final confrontation unfolds.In the end, Hyeong Shin emerges victorious, but the victory is bittersweet. The revelations uncovered during the mission force him to question everything he has ever believed in. The Circle, once a beacon of loyalty and order in his life, is revealed to be as corrupt and power-hungry as the enemies they sought to eliminate.

Mind Control?

Stealth was running out, I had to decide what to do and be quick with my decision.

"Ah shit."

I couldn't take another step, I can't let my emotions sway me away from my goal, "Jack is a valuable asset for this, and Timothy can be used to escape from enemies, What do I do!?"

At last, I decided, it was time to make the hardest choice in the current situation, even though they CAN manage to beat all of those villages on their own, it's still hard to just leave it all up to them.

"Ah well, Stealth Deactivate."

I take my hand gun out of my overcoat's pockets and shoot 5 of the villages at once.

The screaming and yelling from the injured villagers attracted more and more, Because the other villagers werent present when I shot at them, the others were clueless, but decided to hunt us down because the others lied to their own comrades that we trespassed into their area and tried to loot their riches.

"Boss, My Blink rank just went up to Rank E from Rank F, I can use 2 more blinks now, The count has went up by 2." Said Timothy as I released a sigh of relief because we were preparing to escape as soon as I stole the crown.

"This is going to sell for quite a hefty amount, don't ya think so too, Jack?"

He was drowning in greed for fame and money, and was completely clueless as to what I just said.

"Get back to your senses."

After finally responding to the loudest and hardest slap I ever delivered to somebody, He responded, "I will use my skill Berserker to kill them all, in return, I want 30% of the amount you get by selling that crown."

"Sure, You can even take 40% if you work well enough." I replied.

"40%!? I will destroy the whole village for that sum of money."

"Go ahead, Do it for me."

"Skill Activation, Berserker, Commencing.."

"Strength too low, Converting stamina to strength temporarily, Partial Berserk has occured."

I noticed something unusual, His usually big muscles loosened up, His body was so stiff that it was hard for him to swiftly move any weapon, he was just like a tank back when we fought in a mission together, but now he seems like he has become more agile and powerful.

"Skill Unlocked: Observation

You have a keen sense of the 6 senses, increases with proficiency.

F rank."

"Another skill? Great."

With this skill unlocked, my senses sure have gotten pretty sharp, but the problem beforehand is the main issue, Mr K cannot fight, and the man he brought along can't fight as well because they are just errand boys for Her.

A village has around 50-60 men, and the others are children and women, 2 villages had united, the nearest village from them had heard about the commotion and rushed over to help their neighbouring village.

"Was one village not enough now that the surrounding village has joined in for the war!?" Frustration built up inside Timothy.

"We have no choice but to run now!"

Using the various methods of transformation, we had to run.

Those barbaric bastards didn't want to get involved with the cities so the only challenge left was for us to escape to the road and take the car and escape.

"Do you have a plan!"

It was 11:55 P.M.

Meaning we would need to run till it's 12, afterwards, When Timothy's ability is recharged, We are going to have to escape.

"Keep them busy for 5 minutes! Or should I say 5 minutes and 39 seconds!" I shouted, The others raised their hands and imitated a 'thumbs up' to indicate that they have understood my words.

Jack still had his berserker mode on, Making it easier for us to buy time.

"Your rank has moved up, you must be able to carry more people at once right!?" I asked Timothy..

"Yeah! I think I can do it!"

He checked his skill description, And I was right, it went up by 60 kgs, the weight of an average person.

"Think I can carry 2 average people!" Added Timothy.

"This will be easy now, won't it!? Let me fight as well!"

I clench my firsts and punch his chest with full strength, sending people behind him flying.

"Guess my physical capabilities increased when I made a contract!"

"Yeah! Me too!" Replied Jack, it seemed as if he was enjoying this moment, back then when we had to defeat the Soviet Union for some mission, this man was smiling, slaughtering so many people at once, but he felt joy! I felt like he was a psychopath, and that was the last mission I ever cooperated with him for.

"There comes some more."

At this point, I felt like I was using Jack just for his strength, so I decided to join in.

With the small knife and a gun, It was a perfect combination.

"I'm gonna fight as well!" Mr. K got up as well from the ground and took out self defense weapons from his pocket.

Now that everyone of us are fighting, including the right hand man that K bought, It was easy and better to buy time than before.

"Well well, Come on out! I will take you all out! I'm the age of your grandfather! How dare you oppose me!" Taunted Jack.

The villagers were as if they were controlled by something, they became lifeless as soon as Berserker tanked them.

And the fact they were fighting mindlessly made it even more confusing.

"Wait, Something is off, It feels unnatural the way they're battling with us." Timothy was smart, he had noticed it at the same time as me.

The others started paying attention to those details too, and he was right, they had a strange glow in their eyes, the eyes were lifeless, but they had a strange glow in it.

"A strong power is trying to control you.

System is resisting."

The ones who didn't have the system, were controlled, while the three of us resisted it.
