Greatest Assassin
Chapter 4

Then Aiken tried to figure out the weakness of the monster. He stared and analyzed all the parts of the monster's body meticulously while the monster began to focus on the policemen. Many of the policemen were seriously injured due to the attack from the monster. Until finally Aiken began to realize a weak point of the monster that was right on the back of the monster. Of all the monster's body, only on the back that has skin is not as hard as the rest of his body.

"It's very easy to research" said Aiken.

Then suddenly the tail of the monster without Aiken realizing it swung towards the pole and made the pole collapse. Aiken fell off that pole. Just as Aiken was about to rise to his feet, suddenly those sharp thorns shot towards him. Aiken could not avoid those thorns because he was currently in a fallen state. But when the thorns were coming towards him, suddenly a girl stood in front of Aiken and held the thorns with a shield (shield). The girl had short red hair with her irises green in color.

Then Aiken quickly got up and grabbed one of the police pistols. "I know how to beat him!" aiken told the police.

Then Aiken calmly ran around the monster and confused it. Aiken quickly shot directly at the back of the monster and with just one shot the monster immediately fell.

When the monster began to fall, Aiken immediately threw the gun he was holding casually and made the policemen surprised.

"Why didn't you kill him!" said one of the police.

"That should be your job the cops. I only attacked his weakness. Beyond that is not my job," said Aiken in a calm and relaxed tone.

"You're great too. Let me finish off this monster," said the girl walking closer to the monster.

"Wait!" then Aiken ran and jumped on a pole. "What are you gonna do?" the girl asked confusedly as she saw Aiken standing on the pole.

"My clothes are expensive. Who knew the monster would bleed, so I had to keep my body away from getting exposed to its blood" Aiken replied.

"Huh, you're really interesting. Alright," then the girl pulled out a sword of such a large size and then she swung the sword at the monster. Blood started to splatter everywhere and the monster was instantly gone blasting its blood.

"I'd guess. Blood will always be there" said Aiken who was relieved not to be exposed to the splashes of monster blood.

Then Aiken came down from the pole and walked up to the girl. "Who are you? Why do you have supernatural powers? Or maybe it's a magical power?"

"My name is Ayumi Hamasaki. I do have supernatural powers, but I'm not a bad person anyway" she smiled at Aiken.

"Where are you from? You're definitely not from Tokyo" said Aiken.

"I'm from another town Wastaly. I came here because here the supernatural began to appear to Tokyo" he said.

"Whatever anyway. As long as I'm not going to get involved with this," Aiken said.

"You're pretty good. You have to help me fight the supernatural," said Ayumi.

Aiken smiled half and made Ayumi surprised. "I won't work if there's no pay" Aiken said as she walked away with him waving his hand at Ayumi.

When Aiken was relaxed reading comic books while listening to music, and did not forget the snacks, suddenly the sound of his apartment doorbell rang. Aiken tried not to hear the bell. But what can be done, his ears that have been covered by his earphones can still hear. Aiken clad her earphones around her neck as she got up from the soft sofa she was sitting on and walked over to open the door.

"You?" Aiken was quite surprised by the arrival of someone who even that person had rarely or had never even come to Aiken's apartment. And that person was none other than Alyssa, one of the members of Agent Reco.

Alyssa immediately walked inside Aiken's apartment without Aiken letting in. Alyssa shook her head in surprise as she looked at the mess of Aiken's apartment. There are lots of snack containers everywhere, plus a lot of comic books, novels and game cards scattered on the television floor.

"Of course it ever was. But it will always be like this when I have free time," Aiken replied casually as he sat back on his soft sofa.

Alyssa also sat on the sofa as she cleaned the messy part of the sofa. "Why did you come here? Tumben once," said Aiken while casually eating his snack with him also re-reading his comic book.

"Can you focus on our conversation first?"

Aiken let out a long sigh then he put his comic book on the table. "OKAY. So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"You know about the sudden arrival of supernatural beings?" ask Alyssa.

"Yes, I was also fighting him," Aiken replied casually.

"From what agent Reco knows. The supernatural creatures came because there was a mysterious person who accidentally opened the Hollow gate" said Alyssa.

"Hollow Gate? What gate is that?" ask Aiken.

"A magical gateway that unites the human world with the supernatural world and the demon world" Alyssa replied.

"Well, whoa. You seem to like that a lot. To the extent that you know everything about the Hollow gate," Aiken said in a soft tone.

Alyssa's face immediately flushed red with annoyance. "The job of Reco agents is also to find out about the incident that hit Tokyo" said Alyssa.

"alright. So why are you talking to me about this? What's in it for me?" ask Aiken.

"Look, we agents Reco have to find out who opened the Hollow gate. We have to find a way to close the gate again" Alyssa said.

"You guys. I'm not a member of Agent Reco" Aiken said as he drank a glass of juice.

"Are you really not going to help us?" then Alyssa picked up a suitcase with a lot of money in it. "This is just the beginning" said Alyssa.

Aiken immediately took the suitcase. "How do I find out who opened the Hollow?"

"For now we agents of Reco still haven't found any leads. And we were hoping you'd be able to help us" Alyssa said.

"If there's a fee, I'll be ready to help" Aiken said as he stood up and walked over to the window.

"Agen Reco is also in charge of protecting the city of Tokyo from any danger."

"That's your job. I was only on duty when the money came," Aiken said proudly.

At night, Aiken seemed to focus on his computer. It turned out that he was looking for news that talked about the supernatural being. Maybe he'll be able to find a clue if he finds out via the internet. But it turns out he couldn't find any clues when it was more than half an hour he searched the internet.

"Daddy. For a big fee I have to find out about the magical creature," said Aiken then he put his computer and lay his body on his soft mattress.
