Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 18

Oscars POV…

As I left the fortress I put both my mask and cloak on, I then tried to exclude Ki through my eyes which would require me to do it by force. Since I found out that Ki was also very scarce in this world, that time when I had managed to exclude it through my eyes, it was when my body was forced to its limit. However, after the 4-year training that I did I was able to exclude Ki through my eyes easier now, in fact due to my mastery over it I was now able to materialize it and change the colour to whichever I wanted. As well helping my eyes see in the dark and providing it to have a better range of vision allowing me to have a better view without missing a single detail.

I then decided to switch it to red since it would make me more intimidating, in any other situation I would have thought that this is cool. However, right now I was given a mission to kill someone, it’s something I have never done before since I have only killed 4 spirit beasts in the last 4 years. And that was already hard for me as it is, since I have never once killed anyone, but the point of my weaponry was for that. So, I knew that at some point it would come to this, so I might try to avoid killing them if I can. However, if they turn out to be something worse or beyond redemption I might as well kill them not only for me, but the world is better off without trash like them.

I then climbed to the top of each buildings while performing parkour on each window and railing that I could grab onto. I then found the highest roof top that could help me get a better view, I then stood while going over the functions of my cloak. Since not only does it allow me to erase my presence and even defend me, but it also allows me to become invisible, however this would only work on a spirit douluo and below. Even though it doesn’t work on a titled douluo it still is a treasure that can save my life in the near future, in fact I think this cloak is even better than the invisible cloak used in harry potter.

Meanwhile in the harry potter universe…

Deaths POV…

Death: Huh? I feel as if I have been insulted.

At the moment I was currently speaking with three brothers, the first had asked for a wand that could make him the most powerful wizard in the world, so I gave him a wand that would make him as such. Whereas the second one had asked for the power to bring back the dead, so I gave him a stone that contained only a partial fraction of my law. However, the youngest who in my opinion seemed to be the wisest has yet to make his wish.

Youngest brother: Are you alright?

Death: Of course, so what is your wish?

Youngest: Umm…

Meanwhile…

As I stood there for what seemed to be about 10 minutes or so, I then saw three shadows moving at an alarming speed, I then noticed that they were heading to the fortress.

Oscar: Hmm it seems they found out about me and my background now let’s see what they plan to do, if they attack the fortress I will then capture them. However, if they just watch and are there to collect info, well I’ll just capture them and get info from them instead.

I then ran on top of the buildings as they continued to run through the buildings without noticing me and made their way towards the fortress. When they arrived 500 meters near the fortress they then stood next to each other and finally hid in the corner of each building. So, it seems this is just a recon, but splitting up was a bad idea since that made it easier for me to just capture them without any difficulty. I then made my way to the closest ȧssassin on my left who was oblivious to my sudden appearance as he didn’t detect my presence at all.

I then grappled him onto the ground soundlessly which was easy since this ȧssassin was only a spirit grandmaster, I then put him into a choke hold which was hard with my small physique. However due to the element of surprise I had, he could only helplessly lose consciousness within the next 2 minutes. I then tied him to a post while making my way to the next ȧssassin, after I had put him into the same choke hold and knocking him out I finally made my way to the last ȧssassin. However, I then saw that he was not where he was before I, oh shit I then realized that the last ȧssassin noticed me.

I then quickly checked my surrounding only to realize that the last one was running away, I then realized that if he escaped I would fail the mission requirement. I quickly ran after him only to end up in a dark corner, which left me speechless as I was facing about 40 ȧssassins or so. I wanted to run away since this was an ambush that they had setup for me, but then one of the ȧssassins began to speak.

Gruesome reaper: I don’t know if you’re there or not but if you escape, I will personally kill that old man of yours as well as the two brats with him.

Oscar then stopped and got extremely pissed at what that ȧssassin just said, he then turned around and face the ȧssassin who had just threatened him.

Oscar: Oh really

Gruesome reaper and the rest of the ȧssassins were taken back by the response in front of them when all of a sudden, they suddenly saw two red eyes that seemed to look like flames. However, if one were to look into those eyes they would suddenly feel pressure within them, in fact many of the ȧssassins besides the silent reaper felt fear. These were newly recruits who had done nothing but petty and despicable crimes, however at this moment they had finally met pressure that should only be emitted from a monstrous spirit beast.

Oscar: Let me ask you this, are you willing to take an innocent life for money.

Gruesome reaper: Hahahaha, I don’t know what you are, but I came prepared and to answer your question for the right price I would even slaughter their family.

The pressure then subsided, and those red eyes closed all of the ȧssassins had a moment of relief as they thought Oscar had given up. But then they saw a silhouette of a young child, many of them thought they were disgraced and angry that they actually feared a child. One of these people was the squad leader of the silent reapers fourth unit, there are four squads and each leader were named after the four sacred beasts. He was known as the white tiger of the west, leader of the 4th unit, Hu, anyways he then stood in front of Oscar who had his face facing downwards concluding in his thoughts.

Hu: Hahaha you’re just a brat.

Oscar: Huh?

Oscar looked up but with his mask covered by his cloak

Hu: Since you dared to threaten and disgrace me and my men I will personally slaughter that old man and those two brats, and after that I will find any of your family or relatives and kill them as well.

Oscar: If You can

Hu: Huh?

Hu then faced the child who he had thought was very harmless, but what he saw was a mask that looked like a Monster with eyes that emitted a choking pressure. He then saw the world flipping upside down in fact he thought he was flying until he saw a headless body right in front of Oscar who was on one knee with a sword in his hand. Only to realize that the headless body was his…he could not scream for there was no air and lungs to help him shout. He saw all of the ȧssassins in his unit were terrified of seeing his head detached from his body, his head then finally fell on the ground with a look of terror on his face.

It was only 4 seconds but for the gruesome reaper and his ȧssassins it felt like eternity for Hu was a rank 38 grand spirit master but died quickly under Oscars sword, they then saw Oscar standing up with two swords in hand making a bring it gesture with both hands. Hu did not even have a chance to retaliate and now he was dead but there were no second chances when it came to ȧssassination. Once you were careless it is your head that will roll and apparently it was Hu that had his.

Shit I thought this kid was only a spirit master, that damn Chef did not warn me about this and now look I just lost one of my most useful tools. But its fine we have him outnumbered and once I kill I will ask for ten times the amount for him since he dares to kill one of my men.

Gruesome reaper: KILL HIM NOW!!!

Oscars POV…

I never thought that I would kill a person for the first time, I knew that when I chose this world it would come to this, but I still can’t believe I just ended a life. It might sound hypocritical since I have killed spirit beasts who probably had feelings and families in this cruel world, but it is still hard to kill one of your own kind. However, I knew that I will save many innocent lives by killing these types of trash and also earn a few system points, so I need it to grit my teeth and survive first.

Oscar: ALL OF THOSE WHO WISH TO DIE…BRING IT

I shouted as many of the ȧssassins ran towards me with weapons in each hand, I then quickly jumped backwards and threw all of my poison coated daggers with a powerful and precise shot. As there were about 40-50 ȧssassins in front of me 8 fell easily due to the poison contained in it’s tip. Now that there were roughly about 40 more coming at me I might as well put my sword proficiency to the test.

Blood and guts of the ȧssassins was spilled onto the ground, many of them lost their heads by trying to sneak up on me. Looking at the bodies that were piling up around me I felt the urge to puke but I knew that if I was careless now I could probably die as the real fight hasn’t even begun yet. Many of them felt fear and I could practically see it but they still kept coming at me. With my short physique I couldn’t reach these guys however with my two swords it compensated that loss. These guys were just fodder to tire me out before the three squad leaders, and their boss took turns trying to kill me. But what they did not know was that my spirit essence was 2x purer and was 10x more abundant than any rank 48 spirit ancestor.

10 minutes later…

After the blood curdling screams and plead for mercy ended I finally saw 4 people left standing in front of me. My cloak was now covered in blood and guts but none of their attacks got through in fact even if I let them, none of their attacks can damage my skin due to my body refining manual. As I stood up I noticed that two ȧssassins were still alive, but both had lost their left and right arm while bleeding profusely on the ground while begging me to stop.

Oscar: Have you ever let off an innocent person off before.

They both did not answer but after a they seemed to have an answer but then I felt an attack coming from one of the 4 people left. I saw that it was an attack made out of air that cut the last two ȧssassins into pieces. I then turned to face the remaining squad leaders especially their boss, I then noticed that one of them had his spirit rings released and had made another slash towards me. I quickly jumped and managed to get close to him, but then the other squad leader tried to punch me in the stomach before I could even get close.

It seems that they were now wary of me and are finally taking me seriously, I didn’t want to say this after I killed those 50 murderers, but I feel like my blood Is boiling. I have never once felt a rush like this before from all of my two lives combined, now I really want to fight these guys. I then saw both of them taking out their weapons, the tall and muscular one had both a shield made out of a turtle shell in his left hand and a wrecking ball in his other. The other lean and feminine one had a fan made of out feathers that seemed to emit fire from the tip of each feather, they then stood next to each other and introduced themselves.

Fenghuang: I am the leader of the second unit, Fenghuan and I represent the Vermillion Bird of the South.

Gui: And I am the leader of the 3rd unit, Gui and I represent the Black turtle of the north.

They then released their 4 spirit rings, I then stood up straight and returned the gesture of introducing myself while releasing my 4 spirit rings as well. I thought of the one introduction that could shock them and beat their introductions

Oscar: I’M BATMAN…

Gruesome reaper/Three squad leaders: WHO??!!
