THE KING OF THE UNIVERSE 343 John's Crisis

In a war there will be some set of rules which everyone needs to follow. For example, killing innocent people in the middle of the war, attacking enemy base during midnight, torturing opponent's captured soldier for no good reason are one of the rules.

No one in the world breaks the rules during the night time. Not especially during the war time. Or else the punishment would be severe. The one who breaks the rules has to face the heaven's wrath. They had to undergo lightening tribulation.

But a.s.sa.s.sin's Organisation broke this rule. They captured many kingdom and empires especially during the night time. And yet what's shocking was they didn't face the wrath of heaven. This caused a lot of trouble. Of course, they came to a conclusion that the a.s.sa.s.sins Organisation has something like a treasure or artifact that can escape the eyes of heaven. Using that treasure they could able to break the laws of heaven.

But today was different. The opponent is actually attempting an a.s.sa.s.sination plan. This was not at all any war period. So even without relying on the treasure, if they want to a.s.sa.s.sinate John and others, they can do it without any issues.

And who cares what method they used to win the battle. As long as their tactics bore fruit, everything is worth it. After all, the one who wields power has the rights to live in this world. And the losers are destined to die. That's how horrible this world is. So John's statement of his opponent being shameless has no meaning in this situation.

"You are right!" , John sighed and said, " Everything is fair in war and love."

"Hahaha!" , That a.s.sa.s.sin simply smiled in response.

Even though John admitted it, he is still thinking of a way to defeat the a.s.sa.s.sin. Arjun gave a wonderful life to his son Adam. Adam was no good as a magician. He was born with Red realm Magic Core. He was toyed by the people around him.

But Arjun gave him a new life. He is doing a wonderful job as a Willpower trainee. John is grateful for Arjun and his trust in Adam.

And today Arjun entrusted him with this small issue. Only after they pa.s.s this hurdle, they have any hopes for the future plans.

While John lost in his thoughts, That a.s.sa.s.sin made his move silently. He suddenly appeared behind John and attacked using his dagger.

Splas.h.!.+

John was a little too careless when he lost in his thoughts. So he wasn't able to dodge the attack. The blood splashed everywhere. John fell on the ground.

"Hahaha!" , That a.s.sa.s.sin laughed and said in disdain, " I thought highly of you. But I never imagined that you are this tras.h.!.+ In a battle, ni matter what the situation is, one should not lose their concentration against their opponent. I thought highly of you since you were Sitaram's student. But it looks like I overestimated you."

John was on the ground trembling in pain. He once again lost in thoughts. This time when he was still a kid and was learning from Sitaram.

Sitaram said, " John! Don't lose your eyes on your opponent. Or else you will be killed."

"But Master! I hate fighting.." , John when he was 10 years old with bandages all over his body said innocently, " I simply hate fighting. I like management and administration. So can I learn the things related to administration?"

"Of course you can!" , Sitaram said, " But all your administration skills won't save you when you are couple of inches away from the enemy's weapon. Only when you have some fighting skills, you can save yourself. And when you can save yourself, you can concentrate on your administration related studies. Do you understand?"

At present....

John smiled bitterly. He thought, ' So.. Master! This is what you meant! Your words were right! If I learnt being careless back then, today I wouldn't have been on the verge of death.'

'It looks like master's words are true.'

'I truly lack concentration in the middle of a battle.'

'But what can I do in this situation?'

'Even I don't know.'

"Hahaha!" , That a.s.sa.s.sin laughed and said, " This battle is very easy. It ended even before it began. Hahaha! I don't know how you people found a way to train in Willpower, but I can a.s.sure you that, if you have gone to the G.o.d Realm with this mindset, you will die even before you step your foot there. Because G.o.d Realm is much more dangerous than the Life Realm. Compared to G.o.d Realm, Life Realm is much more peaceful."

John was panting weakly. He lost so much blood. So he had no interest in the topic of G.o.d Realm.

"Look at me?" , That a.s.sa.s.sin said, " I was saying all these c.r.a.p to a person who would die at any moment. Well, never mind. Just die."

That a.s.sa.s.sin gave one final smile and left immediately. He knew that others might not be as lucky as him who got a weak opponent. So he need to a.s.sist others so that they can clean this mess and complete their mission.

While that a.s.sa.s.sin left, John was struggling with the life and death crisis. His face has a tinge of regret expression. Since his childhood he never had any battle experience. He never had any interest in battles. He was always the man of management. He hated battles. Even in the battles he learned only archery. And that was too because Sitaram who was John's mentor forced him to learn.

Sitaram always told him that he will die if he don't learn any battle skills. But John never cared about him warning. And today when he is on the death bed, he suddenly regretted for not heeding his mentor's warning.

"You look very pitiful, Uncle John!"

While he lost in his thoughts, a voice rang out in his mind. John was stunned for a moment.

"Young... Young Master!" ,John said in a weak tone, " Young Master, Is that you?"

"That's right!" , Arjun replied, " Even though people like you who likes management, grandfather always tried to teach you the art of battles. Why? Do you think grandfather don't know that a person should not be thought things that is out of their interest? When aunt Samantha and Jessica wanted to concentrate only in supporting occupation, I was determined for them to learn both. Why do you think that is?"

"That..." , John said a little embarra.s.sed, " I now understand what you mean. I was thinking exactly what you asked. I thought I was careful. But I was distracted only for a moment and that a.s.sa.s.sin made used of it."

Arjun didn't reply.
