Hitman With A Badass System

With a wave of his hand, Michael opened the door for the Baron and his guards. Two guards in a full metal plate and chainmail entered through the door first and following them, a red-haired sturdy man came inside. His fancy robes and aura gave out his identity without an introduction.

"You!" behind the Baron, Jane walked with the gritted teeth. Michael completely ignored her and smiled at Baron.

"Welcome to the Majestic, Baron Totonk" He said and reached his hand out to shake Baron's hand as the Baron seemed stunned for a moment before shaking Michael's hand.

"You are Master Ghost?" The Baron didn't expect him to be this young as he seemed like he's nineteen or twenty years old. He was not wrong as Abras was only 19 years old when he died.

"Yes, Baron Totonk," Michael said. The guards quickly brought two customer chairs and placed them behind the Baron and Jane to sit.

Michael and Gaya sat on the sofa to hear the purpose of Baron's visit.

"Master Ghost, my men said you are a 5star Alchemist?"

How could the Baron believe a boy like him is a 5 freakin star Alchemist?

Was he studying Alchemy since he was in his mother's womb?

"Apparently I am, a lot of people ask me that. So Baron Totonk, what brought you to my shop, is it anything to do with what happened to the guards?"

"Forgive my silly daughter for what happened Master Ghost, I spoiled her too much"

"Father!" Baron knew when to raise his head and lower his head. Compared to a 5-star Alchemist, his position as Baron was nothing, even the King of Bredia would treat Ghost with the utmost respect.

Not only was he a 5star Alchemist but one who could concoct pills and brew potions with the purity of 80% which made him the second-best to Alchemy King Gabriel himself.

"Don't worry about that, Baron Totonk, I'm not going to hold that against you but how are the guards?"

"What do you think, you devil?!"

"Jane!" Jane snapped when Michael asked about the guards but soon, she closed her mouth when Baron raised his voice at her.

"Mast"

"It's fine, Lord Totonk. I'm a very tolerant guy"

"Tolerant my ass!"

Gaya was laughing her butt off inside when she heard this but kept a straight face.

Unlike Gaya, the veins on Jane's face popped and her face turned ugly.

This guy nearly beat her guards to death but shameless claiming that he's a tolerant guy, how ridiculous is that?

"I'm glad that you have such a big heart Master Ghost" Baron Totonk was planning how to cool him off after Jane's little squabble with him. He was even ready to gift him a huge chunk of the treasury if that is what it takes Ghost to forgive Jane but now he sighed in relief hearing that he already forgave them.

"I would however, recommend you to buy some Healing Potions to treat the guards"

"Oh?" The Baron was again stunned by Michael. For a moment Totonk thought he saw a fox in human form. Baron understood that by recommending he's urging him to buy Healing potions from him.

"Of course, Master Ghost" if that would make Ghost happy, Baron was willing to spend the gold for the Healing potions. Looking at the Baron's pay cube, Gaya's lips curved upwards

"The guards would need six Healing potions"

"That'd be 78,000 gold coins"

"Are you seriously asking us to pay for what you have done?! This is too much!" Jane screamed and puffs of smoke came out of her nostrils.

"Do you know how much it cost me to reach the point where I am now? Compared to that, this is just a drop in the ocean"

"Don't mind my spoiled daughter, Master Ghost, here's the pay cube" Baron Tototnk handed his pay cube as Gaya took 78,000 gold from it with a small chuckle. Gaya knew Jane must be going crazy seeing this and it made Gaya extremely happy and satisfied.

"Now wait a few minutes, Baron Totonk" Michael smiled.

He immediately took out the batch of ingredients to brew the Healing potions in front of Baron and his men, so he could gain more Badass points.

Michael merely waved his hand, and under the control of his Arch energy, all the required herbs and ingredients floated up in front of him. After that, he immediately unleashed his Arch Energy. With its aid, he would be able to gain precise control over every single herb.

Pop!

Followed by a soft vibration, the bright red fire in his hand exploded and turned into a small stream of flames that engulfed all of the herbs.

"Woah!" Baron immediately leaned back when he saw he's brewing the potion without even a furnace.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 900 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 1000 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 600 badass points]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 700 badass points]

….

The beep sound of the system rang continuously in his mind. Even Jane looked stunned by the sight of his ability to brew potion without a furnace. Even though she was not an Alchemist, she knew how hard it is to practice Alchemy without a furnace as even the Alchemy Teachers in the Morning star would risk concocting pills or brewing potions without a furnace.

Under the intense heat of the flame, all of the impurities within the herbs were being burnt. Although the purification process looked simple, it was an important step that couldn't be neglected. His action of purifying dozens of herbs at once was simply shocking.

He had a calm expression. His black hair was fluttering backward, and his eyes were brimming with vigor like a pair of dark gemstones. With all his focus, he kept staring at the sea of flames in front of him. Within the flames, all the herbs were floating in different positions and were being burned with different temperatures that suited them individually.

There were no doubts about purification being a very difficult step in alchemy. Therefore, when ordinary alchemists concocted pills or brewing potions, they would use a furnace to help control the temperature of the flame. Besides, since each herb had its own melting point, the alchemist would need to purify them one at a time or purify herbs with the same melting point at the same time. If two herbs with different melting points were purified at the same time, it would usually result in impurities remaining or essence being burned off, which then makes the pill or the potion low quality.

Even the alchemists with rich experience might at most purify a few herbs together at once. The fact that he was able to purify dozens of herbs together at once was simply astounding. Only the renowned alchemists dared to do so, and none of them would be able to do it so leisurely like he was doing.

After a few minutes, six vials of green glistening liquid landed in his hand.

"Here you go, Baron Totonk" he handed over the vials to the Baron.

"If you want anything else, you have to come to the Sunrise sect, we are moving the shop"

"Why?!" The Baron was surprised and shocked at the same time.

"Master Ghost, is it because of my daughter? Why are you moving?" Although the Sunrise sect was a part of Bradford, it was an independent territory unlike here.

"It's not Baron Totonk, staying here never was my plan. The Sunrise sect is my home now and I like working from home. There's nothing you can do or say that would make me stay here. Besides, I think it's better if we stay off of each other" Michael looked at Jane when he said.

Baron Totonk let out a long sigh. He knew Ghost was right because he knew his daughter. It wouldn't take Jane to find a way to mess with him if he stayed in Bradford, therefore, the Baron reluctantly accepted Ghost's move.

As far as the Baron was concerned, he's on Ghost's good side and he could use this to build his relationship with him and use his reputation and status to gain an advantage over the Baron of Sarton.

"Then I will wish you luck Master Ghost and if you need anything, please just send someone to my humble house, I will do my best to help you"

"Of course, Baron Totonk"

After a few pleasant words, Baron left the store. Jane gave him a cold stare before leaving and indicated that she's not done with him.

"437,000 gold" Looking at the disappearing figures of the Baron and his men, Gaya said.

"Not bad, not bad at all"

"Human, counting all these gold makes me hungry, let's go grab a bite" Since she had no Arch energy to sustain her body needs, her stomach started to growl. She would literally kill to eat the porridge cooked by Raylene but she was too hungry to go to the sect.

"Alright, lead the way"

Not long after this, Michael, and Gaya arrived at a Restaurant. It was a magnificent restaurant with luxurious decorations, and on top of the entrance hung three words, 'The Ruby Cuisine' It was a two-story building, and the decorations were magnificent and luxurious. Anyone could sense an aristocratic aura from this place.

Obviously, those who could dine at this place were the noblest and richest men in Bradford. It was noon, and this was the busiest time each day for the Restaurant. Many rich and famous people wearing expensive clothing kept arriving.

And on their way to here, Michael earned Badass points just by walking. It was clear that many people now recognized him and were shocked by his talents thanks to the System.

A young man who looked like a waiter was bowing and greeting the customers while shouting out orders at the door. When the waiter saw Michael and Gaya he hurriedly came forwards and greeted, "Young Master, Young Miss. Please come in!" the waiter said but Gaya could sense a hint of panic and fear in his voice.

Gaya nodded thinking that probably the waiter heard of Ghost's reputation and was about to enter the restaurant when she noticed Michael standing without moving.

"What's going on?" Michael's environment scanning ability revealed to him that there are two extremely powerful entities inside the restaurant and made him reluctant to get in.

"Is this going to be one of the restaurant fights that would happen in novels?" He loved reading cultivation novels and in most of them, the main character would find himself in trouble whenever he enters a place to rest or eat, especially if the mc had a beautiful girl beside him.

Of course, he knew face slapping an arrogant young master in front of all the people would get him badass points but the two entities inside the restaurants seemed way out of his current league. Therefore, he had second thoughts of entering the restaurant. He would rather choose to be careful and calculative than depend on the system and his luck to save his bacon.

"Come on, I'm hungry!"

"I changed my mind, let's head back to the sect, I'll ask Raylene to make something for you" He had to be alive to be a badass and his instincts told him not to enter the restaurant. So he listened to his instincts and immediately turned back.

"A good man won't let his friend go hungry, Ghost" Just when he was about to leave, a voice appeared out of nowhere and formed an invisible wall around him.

"Shit, here we go"
