Hitman with a Badass System

"Go away tiny human, I don't want to play with you!" Since Michael was not here and they had closed their store today, Gaya was alone and bored.

She wanted to have some alone time and deeply think about the unfamiliar feelings she was having since she saw Sadie and Michael together at the wall.

However, she was getting nagged by Cindy as the little girl kept asking Gaya to play with her. No matter how many times she had shushed away the little girl, she was leaving her alone.

"Come on Sister Aelia! Play with me" the little girl tightly held onto Gaya's hands and tried to get her up from the sofa using all her strength.

Gaya lifted Cindy by the back of her collar while the little girl was laughing and trying to grab Gaya's long hair.

"Where are your friends?"

"They are with Brother Jack"

"Jack? what is that little shit doing with them?"

"Hehehe" Cindy's childish giggles filled the house as even Gaya couldn't help but slightly smile looking at the little girl's laughter.

"He's watering big brother Ghost's herbi garden"

"Herbi garden?" Seeing Cindy couldn't pronounce herbal, Gaya chuckled.

"It's not Herbi garden, it's called the herbal garden" Because of this little girl, Gaya forgot about everything for a moment and tickled Cindy.

"hehhe...sto….Si...hehehe"

"Don't you want to play with me?" Cindy was wiggling like a fish out of the water but Gaya kept tickling her showing no mercy.

Just when the two of them were playing, the door opened as Michael walked in with his usual smile.

"Big brother!" Like a puppy saw its owner, Cindy wiggled out of Gaya's grab and ran to him. The little girl leaped as Michael lifted her up.

"Who's a good girl? yes, you are, yes you are" Micheal threw the girl up and down in the air and played with her.

While he was playing with Cindy, Michael noticed the gloomy look on Gaya's face.

"Cindy, go play with your friends. I have something to take care of"

"Will you play with me later?" The girl showed him the puppy eyes.

"Yes, I will play with you later, now run alone"

Cindy bounced in joy and left the house with a brightened face. After seeing the girl's figure disappear from his sight, he turned to look at the Gaya who was sitting straight on the sofa while avoiding direct eye contact with him.

He walked to her and sat beside her to see her squirming away from him.

He again moved to sit beside her as she also again moved away from him.

Looking at her silly behavior, he grabbed her by her hand as she turned around angrily.

"So, are you going to tell me why you are in such a bad mood?"

"I'm not in a bad mood" She was a pretty good liar but now, she lied like an amateur.

"I know what this is about, you're mad because of what happened between me and Sadie on the wall" He was not a naive guy and in fact, he already knew Gaya was jealous and she only didn't realize it yet.

"Why would I be mad? You can screw whoever you want, I simply don't care"

"But you do and that's why you're acting like this. Why don't you just woman up and say what's on your mind, like a princess of Nagaland?" By speaking these words, Michael touched her nerve as she furiously took a few breaths and decided to give him a piece of her mind.

"Yes, I'm mad at you! You left me and Jack alone on the wall with that slut did you think about how we travel back to the sect carrying all the gold coins? What if I get robbed on the way? If you were my friend, you would have thought about my safety" Michael was slightly surprised by her words. Then when he noticed the 52% loyalty, he realized she has now started to consider him as a friend.

"It's time to increase her loyalty," Michael told himself.

"Did you really think I would let anything happen to you? If I didn't care about your safety, I would have handed you over to your sister. You think so less of me, I'm really hurt" Gaya was taken aback by surprise and shock. She didn't think her words would impact him in such a way as she saw him really get sad.

The more she looked at his sad face, the less mad she felt at him.

"Human" she tried to console him but he stood up and went straight into his room.

"Did I really hurt him?" Staring blankly at the closed door, she asked herself.

Her anger now faded away after seeing the way he reacted. She had never seen him like this and it really bothered her.

"System, how did I do?"

[Not bad Host but you should consider buying the Book of Acting from the system store] back inside his room, Michael's sad face was instantly replaced by a proud grin. He turned the table and increased Gaya's loyalty by 2%.

"System, in the future only recommend me things that I can actually buy"

[Noted]

For a couple of hours, Michael stayed inside and made several badges of pills of potions to restock the Majestic and keep the business going while he's attending the auction that Sadie told him about.

"Now I should make one more pill" He picked out a few ingredients and started to concoct the pill. A few minutes after the concoction, a blood-red pill floated above his hand and radiated a pungent smell.

"No pain no gain" he mumbled and put the pill back in the system storage.

"Human" he heard Gaya's voice coming from the other side of the door.

"Heartless girl, she took this long to make a move" he quickly put his sad face on and said

"What are you still doing here? Didn't you say we aren't friends anymore"

He intentionally spoke these words to make her panic.

"I never said that!" just like he planned, she slammed open the door and hastened into the room.

"You fucking liar, when did I speak those words?" she really panicked thinking he wouldn't care for her anymore and stop making the pills to cure her.

Earlier when he sat beside her, she kept moving away from him but now, she sat very close to him on his bed. His reaction and words totally agitated her.

"I lied to you before when I said I don't care about what happened between you and that bitch, human"

"I know but I don't understand why you are pissed off about that?"

Hearing Michael's question, she had no direct answer to give him as she sighed

"Honestly I don't know why, maybe I hate those bitches in Silvermoon too much" He could tell she was telling the truth by looking at her eyes. Although Michael understood what she had been feeling was a sort of jealousy, he chose not to ponder too much, and instead, he directed the topic towards where he could exploit her jealousy to increase her loyalty.

"You hate everyone"

"No, I don't" She pursed her lips and said. She then stared at him for a couple of seconds and said, "I don't hate you" It took a great amount of strength for her to admit this as she had never had a friend or someone close to her before like Michael.

"So you're saying we are still friends?" Words had power and by making her admit their friendship, he wanted to increase her loyalty.

"Yes, we are still friends"

[Ding! Congratulations to the host. Subordinate Gaya reached 60% loyalty]

"Now we are talking" the system notification made him grin inside.

"I still don't like the fact you chose to bang Sadie. Those evil sluts will drain your Arch Energy and damage your meridians"

"Didn't you hear what Sadie said? It was old-fashioned love making. There was no harm except the slight pain in my muscles"

"Gross, stop talking about that!" She furiously rolled her eyes and punched him on the shoulder.

"Go change your clothes you bastard, you stink of that slut"

"If you want to see me naked, you can stay here" the moment she heard these words, she leaped out of his bed and rushed outside before yelling at him with her usual haughty tone.

"Who wants to see you naked except that Sadie bitch!"

Alright, this chapter took longer than I expected to write because of all the dialogues and stuff. I know this might be boring but I had to write this chapter to keep the story flow naturally as well as show the friendship blooming between two lone wolves.

The real badass action-packed fun begins from the !!!
