The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 348 - Smiling

"N-No, you're not crazy, obviously," Garestsa said as she had difficulty talking.

She was simply under so much stress that it was hard for her to formulate sentences.

"You heard her, Aiden. You're not crazy, now slowly move away from her," David said in a calm voice as he noticed that Aiden was slowly starting to get closer to Garestsa.

Aiden looked back, "Make me."

Right as he said that, there was a portal that appeared right in front of Aiden with a single person coming out of it, David.

"Stay away from her."

This time, Aiden couldn't walk further any longer as he could feel an energy locking down all his movements.

"So, it was you, huh?" Aiden uttered out of nowhere as he felt that energy being applied to his body. "It was you who stopped me from killing her…"

Aiden didn't have a single problem pronouncing those words while glaring at Garestsa who was currently hiding being the director, scared to look Aiden in the eyes.

"That's enough Aiden, stop threatening everyone around you."

Aiden heard that and simply scuffed, and stuck in place. "And what if I don't?"

David this time took it a step further, he had noticed that Aiden wasn't well mentally for the last few minutes, but this was simply too much. The way that he was currently acting, was… inhuman. There was no other word to describe it, it was inhuman.

It was as if someone had taken over him, and tried to do all those things.

"If you keep threatening Garestsa and me, then I will have no choice but to keep a special eye on you," David said with a smile. "You know, I didn't show you all the room in the wooden cabin, there's one that's hidden from the public eye because of what's inside of it. Do you want to go there?"

Aiden didn't say anything as he knew that the only words that he would be saying would simply make things even worse than they already were.

Aiden gave up trying to move as he could feel that the strength of the mana that was immobilizing him was much stronger than his own which meant that he had no choice but to be completely immobile at the mercy of everyone.

"That's what I thought, you don't want to go there, right?"

Once again, there was no answer as Aiden was still trying to calm himself to the best of his abilities.

"Right?" The director repeated as he wanted to hear Aiden agree to what he had just said.

"You're bluffing, that place doesn't exist," Aiden muttered in a low tone, seemingly calming himself down.

Aiden knew that such a room didn't exist because he had already searched for any sort of secret room in the wooden cabin and he hadn't found anything like that which meant that the director had to be bluffing.

"Am I? How would you know?"

Aiden scoffed hearing that as it seemed quite obvious as to why he would know such a thing.

"Whatever that doesn't matter, are you going to stop your act or not?" David asked one last time as he had seen that Aiden had some mental problems.

He just hoped that he would stop his current act that way he would be able to go see Anna.

"I am, so you can leave now," Aiden said as he only moved his mouth, unable to move anything else. "Are you going to release me, now? I told you, I'm fine!"

Aiden showed a big smile when saying that as if nothing had happened before that.

'Just leave and let me kill her, that's all I want to do, you stupid moron,' Aiden thought as he couldn't wait to be one on one with Garestsa.

He couldn't wait to see her suffer, Aiden would make sure that he would release all of the rage that he was currently feeling inside. She was the one who would be feeling pain, this time.

She was the reason that Aiden had failed this trial and Aiden would make sure that she would pay, he didn't care if she were to argue that she wasn't Aiden would kill her.

"Are you really?" David asked as he wasn't sure if that change in attitude was an act or not.

Aiden noticed that David kept testing him as he kept a smile on his face.

'Let's just act like that for now, and I'll take care of her after, either way, if he learns everything from Anna, there's no way that I will complete the Trial Objective.'

Aiden had just gotten confirmation that there was no way for him to defeat the director in a one versus one, he was literally his plaything if the director wished as such.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I don't know what just took over me… I think I was just affected by what you said to me, it's like you broke my trust…"

David nodded when hearing that as this was exactly what he had guessed, he was sure that it was because he had shown that he didn't fully trust Aiden, and then it accentuated even more because he thought of his past.

"Don't worry, I don't mind it. If anything's wrong in the future just come and talk to me, so that such a thing doesn't happen again."

Aiden smiled when hearing that, nodding.

"Alright, just make me a sign when something like that happens again, I'll try to help you," David continued supporting her as much as he possibly could.

If only David knew what Aiden really wanted to do at the moment. If he knew, then he wouldn't be acting this way at all.

"Hm, alright I'll go see Anna now."

David opened the portal and as he was about to cross, finally, there was a small voice that stopped him.

"P-Please take me with you," Garestsa said as she staggered trying to talk.

David looked back confused, "Just stay here with him, he won't do anything to you, don't worry."

"Yeah, Garestsa, I won't do anything… you can trust me," Aiden said with a huge smile on his face.
