DESTINY GAMES

It was important he got there as early as possible because he didn’t know exactly when the man would come to the burial site. All he knew was the day, and it was the first of every month.

The man could arrive at any time, so he had to be prepared to wait all day if necessary. So he prepared a bed roll and other necessities to survive in the wild.

He put in a lot of effort into the mission so he was ready when the convoy reached the site. Wrath was the one that spotted them as he was napping. But he was quick to train his gun on them as soon as their convoy stopped.

The vehicles were sport cars with electricity-powered engines, so they were silent. They formed a circle around the site without much of a ruckus. Only the sound of their tires crushing dirt and rock could be heard. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The target emerged from one of the vehicles. He was a tall and thin man. His complexion was red, and he was wearing sunglasses. He was wearing a black suit that matched the sunglasses but was at odds with his skin color.

The man looked exactly the same as the target in the pictures. Kelvin couldn’t be wrong about that, so he fired his gun as soon as he got a good line of sight. The bullet flew quickly and smashed into the man’s head.

The man’s head caved in unnaturally. His head was also pushed to the side. The force of the shot was so powerful that just the blunt force almost removed his head from his neck. But the bullet itself didn’t penetrate the skull of the target.

The bullet had only created a dent in the skull of the man. But even as he watched, that dent was pushed out and the head was made whole.

What’s worse is that the man turned to look at his position up in the sky. He took down his eyeglasses to reveal two black compound eyes. Then he mouthed something to him.

The man had said, "I see you."

Kelvin had read it loud and clear from his lips. All of these and the fact that his bullet had failed to kill the target made him curse.

"Fuck. We’ve been had."

He began packing quickly. He made sure not to panic as that would make him make mistakes, but he was truly unnerved.

He said to Wrath, "This mission was a bust right from the start. The information was wrong. The target is not a summoner. He is clearly a physique class super."

He was trying not to panic, but Wrath didn’t panic at all. It wondered aloud, "He looks like an insect. If I am right, then communicating with insects is just a side effect of his ability."

Its eyes lit up as it laughed, "Would you imagine that? What an interesting way to hide one’s ability. I am almost impressed."

Kelvin didn’t have the time to analyze the situation and feel impressed. He felt he wasn’t fast enough at the moment, so instead of delaying himself by analyzing the situation, he put his sniper calmly back into his case, set fire to the non-essentials like his bedding, picked up what couldn’t be burned, and then rappled down the building.

It was only when he was on his hoverbike driving away did he have the leisure to consider his situation.

He said to Wrath, "He is too strong. He has to be at least F rank to be able to stop the bullet like that."

Wrath gave an alternative: "Or he has the help of an amplifier."

"Either way, this mission is done."

With that, he drove off. But things were clearly not over. Back at the burial site, no one was panicking or rushing around. Not even the man who was shot felt any compulsion to escape. Everyone behaved as if there hadn’t been an assassination attempt a few moments ago.

The man touched the side of his head where the bullet had struck him. It hurt a little, but he was largely unharmed.

He smiled and muttered, "Another one. I wonder how good this one is." Enjoy new chapters from empire

Then he said to one of his guards, "Zain, he is on a hoverbike going east. Find him and bring him here. Let’s see if he will join the ranks of the unworthy or not."

The guard in question took off. Meanwhile, the man continued to look at the gravestone he came to visit. Unlike what the public believes, he is not a summoner class super, and he doesn’t come here to visit the gravesite of his father.

The gravestone he is looking at doesn’t belong to his father. It belongs to everyone who has tried to assassinate him, failed to do so, and failed to escape too. Now he is waiting to see if another person will join the ranks of the failures.

Zain the guard took off after Kelvin. He was a man built like a wall. He had an obvious lack of hair on his smooth scalp, but that is rarely noticed compared to his body.

He too was wearing a suit. He pulled off the jacket to reveal a body built like a mountain. His arms and chest were practically bursting through his shirt. He looked like he could crush a coconut with a single hand.

First, he gave someone his jacket. Next, he kicked off his shoes and popped the joints in his neck. It was difficult to pop the joints in his neck since his neck was so thick. It was like a pyramid holding his head, not the cylindrical shape that normal people have for necks.

Then he began running towards his target. He was slow at first, but he began to pick up speed as he ran. He got faster and faster. Soon he was crossing 10 meters in a second. The convoy quickly lost sight of him, but they weren’t worried.
