ch.3

Wei was able to become the Top Idol within a year. He had noticed that Tang Zan was supporting him from the background. Even though he had never asked for that favor Tang gave him.

A few months back, Suzy's relatives came to complain when he had stopped being their Sugar daddy.

"How could you do this?!"

"My daughter's about to start school!"

"Where is your heart? So ruthless!"

"I have no mercy on people that use me. If you're not going to leave me alone, I'll put a bullet through your heads," Wei said without a care.

He stared mercilessly at his useless relatives. One of them was angered and rushed up for a punch. Wei took out his gun and shot his thigh. The rest were scared shitless.

"Madman!"

They all ran off, scared for their own little lives. One of the injured man's siblings dragged him off with them. Assistant Mason saw this and reported it to Tang Zan. Tang laughed in amusement and helped Wei dispose of his greedy relatives. After getting the Top Idol Award, Wei retired and brought up many successful businesses. Many of his students follow suit and the people worship and admire Wei and them.

"A few more days, then I can leave this world and move to the next."

Wei left his home and went for a walk at the park. In normal clothes, he looked like a normal mid-aged woman in her late twenties taking a stroll.

"Suzy, what are you doing here without any guards?"

"Tang...I'm taking a stroll as you can see."

"...Suzy, I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

"...!!! I'm sorry but I don't feel the same."

Wei thought that Tang was too similar to his past husband. It had caused a shadow in his heart.

"Can't we date before you make your choice on how you feel about me?"

"No, I can't love again after what happened to my lover."

"Can you tell me what happened?"

"We loved each other dearly...but he isn't in this world."

Tang thought Wei's wording was a bit strange but didn't think into it. He knows that her heart is still with her dead partner. Tang sighed as he gave up. He decided it was better to watch and protect Wei instead of forcing his love on her.

"May I know his name?"

"...it was Gao Ru."

Tang's chest tightened.

"It sounds familiar...maybe I heard of him before."

"...," Wei didn't say anymore as he stared forward.

He had assumptions but he didn't have facts to prove it, so he shut those ideas back and continued his stroll. Tang walked with him. The silence was peaceful and Tang didn't want it to end, wishing time to stop right at this minute. Sadly, he got a call from assistant Mason and had to get into the car. Right at this moment, a woman with a knife ran up to Wei. Stabbing him two times before pushing him into the river. It seemed to be a relative that he shot before, seeking revenge.

Tang called out to Wei in sadness. Tang took out a gun and killed the woman. He called his assistant to get a search team. Whenever he looked down at the bloody water, his heart would be sharp with pain and his lungs would constrict. It was as if this had happened before. Someone falling to their death as the water took their body away. His gut told him to save Wei immediately.

"System, tell me the truth. Is Tang Zan, Gao Ru?"

Wei's heartbeat sped up with the system's confirmation.

"Let's look at the rewards."

"Well since I died from being assasinated, let's learn that skill first."

"Alright."

After a long duration, Wei finally left the training realm and began the next world. Wei opened his eyes to see that he was in a car.

'System, give me the orinigal's memories.'

Wei's mental will has grown vastly and his pain tolerance has also increased. The assasination skill involves with pain tolerance, be able to use all types of weapon no matter if it's a stick or a coin, mental and physical torture, etc.

Jaime Sanders, grew up in the streets as a homeless kid. At the age of 15, he joined a gang and survived the harsh life. After many years following the gang leader, he became the right hand man of the leader. He was respected and feared by his fellow brothers. But at the age of 23, his fellow brothers and leader turned on him and he escaped bearly alive. Since then, he has entered a larger gang, Black Wolverine. He soon got followers and was a main man of the leader. He soon got his revenge and destroyed the smaller gang, Snake Eyes.

One day as the Black Wolverine Gang had war with the main mafia group, Cardinal Sins, he was gravely injured by a sneak attack. Since he was one of the main leaders of the Gang's Boss, they didn't let him off and tracked him down. With horrible luck, he met the mafia boss face-to-face. He was captured and tortured for days until death took him.

'I'm glad I learned the assassin skill...if I didn't, I would have struggled to survive and even died failing this world.'

"Starting in the middle I see. Let's see, I need a new hiding place quickly. Let's change into some suitable clothing as well. This bloody clothing is so dirty and unsanitary, let's shower first."

Jaime showered and changed into clothing fit for assassin's. His aura and outer appearance was completely changed. He placed the money on the bedside table and leaped through the window to the wall and smoothly jumped up to the roof. He ran and leaped from building to building.

He found a nice hidden place and started living there. None of the mafia underlings were able to find a lead to him. James continued his relaxing normal life. He slept early and woke up early. Did his training with weapons and then made himself food to eat. He also took bounties with a new identity. It was easy to take the head of small guys.

"Hmm, what to eat today."

Jaime checked the fridge and saw that he was out of ingredients. He decided to go shopping and left the groceries. The place was filled with people trying to get their stuff. He hummed a song as he strolled around the market.

"It's getting late, I better go."

Jaime felt uneasy for some reason and went to check out. He carried his bags of food and rushed home. Turning at another alley, he bumped into someone.

'Why do I sense some dejavu…'

Jaime stepped back and looked up to see dangerous yellow eyes with a red glint. He noticed some sweat rolling down his face.

'Shit, he probably has someone chasing him. There's a cut on his arm and it seems a bullet grazed his leg.'

Without a thought, Jaime pulled the man by his uninjured arm. He heard some footsteps coming their way and pushed the man with him into a dark corner. A few men in suits shot back at the men that followed them. They seemed to be searching for something or someone. Jaime knew it was the bigger man behind him. The man was looking down as Jaime, observing his actions as he stayed silent.

Jaime took out a black mask and tied it on. He took out a knife and instantly arrived behind one of the chasers. The man died without a sound and Jaime continued to the others. The men in suits seemed to already run off to get the chasers off their tail, but Jaime had already killed them. He examined the dead men and took their wallets and weapons.

"Seems like some random gang members…," Jaime thought out loud.

He turned to where he left the wounded man and saw him sitting against the wall. Seeing that he was losing blood at a fast rate, Jaime carried him over his shoulders to his apartment. Laying the man on his bed, he dealt with the more serious knife wound on his arm. Quickly stitching up the arm, he then sliced off the fabric around the leg wound and bandaged it.

"He seems like a rich guy. Oh well, his good clothes are ruined. Let's just toss it."

Jaime let the man rest and went out to get a pair of shirt and pants for the man to change into later.

'System, check his soul wavelength and GaoRu's.'

'Heehee-hahaha! My love, you followed me. I'll find you in every world, I swear!'

It was early morning, the injured man woke up and calmly looked at his surroundings. There were glass panels behind them and a balcony a bit away on the side of the bed. The kitchen was on the other side. He then noticed a body next to him. The sleeping male moved his arm and snuggled closer to the man's warmth. The man felt complex feelings as he has never shared a bed or was so close to another human like this. He always felt disgusted when many women threw themselves on him. But he was able to be patient with this male.

"Nnh, don't tease…," Jaime moaned and talked in his sleep.

The man somehow liked the way his voice sounded out. He moved his good arm and wrapped it around Jaime's waist, pulling him closer to his chest. The man decided to go back to rest and tighten his embrace. Jaime woke up a few minutes later, when it was around 6:42 in the morning. Jaime pouted in pity as he didn't want to get out of the man's warm embrace. He forced himself out of bed and got ready for the day. He showered and changed, then he pulled out new bandages and changed the ones on the man's wounds.

"He's a fast healer. The skin already stopped bleeding and is scabbing up. Hmm."

Jaime cleaned up and tossed the dirty bandages. He continued to go make breakfast. Humming again, he placed the dirty pan into the sink to soak and wash after eating.

"Oh, you're awake. I made your portion to eat. Are you well enough to wash up and come eat?"

"...yes, do you have any clothes i can borrow?"

"Yea, I bought some for you yesterday. I hope they fit. I'm Jaime Sanders by the way."

"Lucian Reyes."

Jaime nods as Lucian stands up from the bed. He had to look up as Lucian towered him by a few inches. Lucian took the clothes out of Jaime's hands and went to the bathroom. He walked without a limp and his expression is like stone. When Lucian came up, Jaime was dazed as he stared at those muscles and tattoos on his arms. The black t-shirt and blue jeans looked nice on him. A different feel from his suit. Jaime coughed as he looked away. He washed his plate and the pan as Lucian sat down to eat his breakfast.

"It's good. Thank you for helping me last night and even now."

"Oh, it's fine. I did it all on a whim anyways. If you need to, you can stay here until you're all healed."

"Then, I'll take up that offer. Thank you for the inconvenience. Also, may I borrow a phone to call my business partner?"

"Of course, here."

'Another deja vu feeling…," Jaime thought.

"Thank you, I have told them my situation and explained that I am resting here for a bit."

"No worries. You should rest. You're injured after all. I'll be over there, doing my usual training. I hope the noise won't bother you."

"It's fine, I can still rest."

Jaime continued to toss his knives into the target, his face was completely focused and full of seriousness. Lucian was watching him. He looked at Jaime's fit and perfect figure. Thinking back on the feeling of his arms around his waist, he craved to touch him again. The days continued to be peaceful and soon Lucian was all healed.

"I'm going to be bored when you're gone. Ah, I have gotten used to your presence…"

"...Jaime, why don't you come with me? You're highly skilled with the way of killing and you're also good at taking care of me. I don't know what to do if you weren't with me anymore."

"I-I don't know…"

"In fact, please be my lover."

"Eh?! Um…okay. I'll be yours."

Jaime's face flushed as he was embarrassed. Lucian smiled with arrogance as he pulled Jaime into a deep kiss. Jaime backed up and fell onto the bed, Lucian following him. They strip and makeout.

"W-wait, slow down, L-Lucian!"

"Sorry, I can't hold back anymore."

"So big, nnh!"

Lucian had a lot of stamina as they did multiple rounds. He cleaned them both up and let Jaime rest on the bed. He dressed and got himself ready to return to his estate. A knock on the door sounded and he opened up the side screen to see who it was. It was his right hand man. He opened the door and the other man greeted Lucian with almost respect.

"Wait a second. Alright let's go, Jayden."

"Yes sir."

Lucian walked out with Jaime sleeping in his arms. Jayden was curious but also didn't question anything and continued to lead his boss to the car and return to the main estate.

"Aiee, you really took me to your home…"

"You are my wife, the second in command of the Cardinal Sin's Mafia Clan."

"...wait...do you know that I used to be part of the Black Wolverine Gang?"

"Of course, I want to know everything about you."

"...okay! But will your family like me?"
