The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



After that weird interaction, Aiden and Mia were closer to each other, well Mia at least, as she was now sure that she liked his presence around her.

She actually got closer to him but didn't touch him, still keeping some distance between them.

Aiden on the other wasn't sure what he was feeling, actually, he wasn't thinking about what had just happened. 

'How the hell did I create that skill?' thought Aiden, asking the question to himself.

*Beep*

A sound from the system popped up in his head.

'Oh right, I forgot, the system can help me,' thought Aiden, not noticing the sudden closer movements of Mia toward him.

[Creation of skill is quite complicated to explain, most of the time it will be created depending on certain situations where you might need help. For example, because you wanted to comfort Mia but actually didn't know why, the system helped you by creating a skill. Please keep in mind that creating a skill is really rare and can only happen to the most talented Awakeners that exist.]

'It's rare? Then how did I create two of them already,' thought Aiden, realizing that maybe he was very talented.

*Beep*

[The main reason that your skill <Mind of an Assassin> has been created is because of your transmigration to this world which made the system glitch, granting you a skill.]

'So, the first skill I got wasn't because of what I did?' asked Aiden in his head.

*Beep*

[Yes and no, a created skill is always related to the person who creates it but in your case, the system granted you one since it didn't assign to you any class.]

Mia who was right beside Aiden started looking at him and saw that he was completely distracted but she didn't have any idea what was distracting him because there didn't seem to be any close to them.

Not wanting to distract him from his thoughts, Mia just continued walking at the same pace as Aiden.

'Why would you help me?' asked Aiden to the system.

But this time, no beeps could be heard as the system became totally silent.

Aiden once again repeated the question, 'Why would you help me?', but still no answer.

'Is it ignoring me because it can't answer or because it doesn't want to reveal why it helped me,' thought Aiden, trying to make sense of why the system wasn't working anymore.

It made Aiden think that maybe the system had orchestrated him getting into this body in the first place. Was it really a coincidence that he had gotten into a body in another world that had the exact same name as him?

Aiden obviously couldn't answer that question as he didn't know anything about the Otherworld, maybe the four founding families would have more information about it in general which is why he decided that when he finished this trial that he would be going to visit the Nightshade family.

Mia who was still watching Aiden completely absent-minded with what surrounded him found it weird.

'It's been five minutes since he stopped talking and he hasn't moved his gaze,' thought Mia.

"Aiden? You there?" asked Mia, unsure if Aiden would even be able to hear her.

But suddenly the gaze of Aiden which hadn't moved in a long time got down and looked straight into the eyes of Mia.

"Yes?" asked Aiden, not sure why Mia had called his name.

"Oh nothing you just seemed preoccupied," said Mia, telling him why she had distracted him.

Hearing this made Aiden realized that he hadn't paid attention to his surrounding since earlier.

"Sorry, I just had something on my mind."

"Oh, what is it? Maybe I can help you," said Mia wanting to help him just like she helped her earlier.

Aiden thought about telling her but decided against it as she would be confused more than anything hearing that he wasn't really from here.

"Hmm, it's complicated, you probably wouldn't understand."

Seeing that Aiden seemed hesitant to talk about what was on his mind, Mia decided to let it go not wanting to press him.

"Oh sure, it's probably personal I won't ask again."

Aiden noticed that Mia had completely misunderstood but he was fine with it as he would have to lie to her.

"Yeah, thanks for understanding."

After their quick interaction, Aiden went back to asking the question from earlier to the system but it still didn't work. 

Wanting to know if the system was having problems, he decided to ask it another question completely different.

'What are you?' asked Aiden.

But there was still no answer.

'Who created you?'

But there was still no answer.

'It really seems like I will have to go to one of the founding families to get information, they might know something about this,' thought Aiden who now didn't have a choice but to go visit one of the founding families or find a way to talk to one.

He didn't want to go back to the Nightshade since he didn't know what they would do to him, after learning that he had awakened.

'Maybe I could back to the Ravenwood store and ask them there?'

'No, that probably won't work, whatever, I'll talk to Maelis when I get back she might be able to help me contact one of them.' thought Aiden, deciding on a plan for when he got back.

"Aiden? Aiden?" whispered Mia to Aiden as she started hiding behind a tree.

"What?" said Aiden, also whispering acting like she did.

"There, look," said Mia as she pointed at some people who were on horses on the main road.

All of them were wearing armor, they seemed to be soldiers from the Upsilon Empire.

'So that's what they look like, huh?' thought Aiden, looking at their gray armor with some red lines on them.

Not wanting to get spotted, they hid behind the tree until they got far enough.

·ƈθm "Looks like we're finally arriving," said Aiden when he was sure that the soldiers he had just seen were nowhere to be found.
