Chapter 77 - Savior



John was panicking while pressing onto his daughter\'s stab wound unaware of the danger that was approaching him and his daughter. The ten rank six martial artists were about to kill the father and daughter when out of nowhere the person who was holding Matsuri suddenly fell down. 

The remaining nine were shocked as they didn\'t understand what had happened. One of them went closer to their companion and tried checking him. Their companion was unconscious and after checking his body a bit, they found some sort of needle sticking out of his neck, it was coated in some kind of liquid. 

As the nine were distracted by what happened they suddenly noticed that Matsuri who their unconscious companion was holding was no longer there. They then turned around and saw that John and Milly were also gone. When they saw this the nine of them got enraged as this was the second time they had their prey slip. 

Still, even though they were angry they understood that there was a hidden threat somewhere. Unlike a while ago when they were caught by surprise, this time they were ready for any possible interference. Yet despite having their guard up, they were still ambushed. Not to mention that they could not sense the presence of the attacker, nor did they notice the moment the others fled, two of which were unconscious and another who had an arm missing.. 

This would mean that unlike John and Matsuri this newcomer who saved them was highly skilled and was at least at the same level as them or it was possible that the attacker was a rank above them. The nine of them became even more cautious as they tried to find John and the others. 

...

John who witnessed everything that happened was in a state of confusion. Just moments ago they were surrounded by ten rank six martial artists and were about to die, but now they were being dragged somewhere else without anyone noticing. 

The one who saved him and the others was none other than the assassin Fade, who was now carrying Detective Matsuri and Milly. After finding a good hiding spot, Fade stopped and put down Matsuri and Milly. 

Fade then checked on Milly\'s condition, the first thing he did was check if the sword had pierced through her body fully. He checked Milly\'s back and saw that the sword didn\'t go through. He then proceeded to look into the opening of the stab wound. It wasn\'t as deep as he had thought, it was clear that the attacker didn\'t really want to kill Milly. Still, even though the wound wasn\'t as deep as expected it was still an open stab wound. 

\'It\'s a good thing it didn\'t hit any vital organ... Tsk, this would\'ve been easier if I learned some healing spells.\' 

Fade sighed as he felt a tinge of regret not learning any healing spells in his old world. He never really needed it as most of the wounds he received could be healed using his own self-regeneration using his mana control, and for those that he couldn\'t heal using his mana control, he would use some basic methods like stitching his wound. 

Fade knew that if he injected some of his mana into Milly, her inner energy would act against it. Once that happens it might aggravate the wound more, so he needed to make the wound a little bit smaller to lessen the chance of that happening, which made things a bit more difficult. 

...

John watched Fade from the sidelines as the latter was checking on his daughter\'s condition. He then saw Fade taking out needle-like objects and started inserting them near Milly\'s wound. The moment Fade did so, the flow of blood that was coming out of the wound stopped. John held his breath and prayed that Fade could save his daughter, he might not believe in any kind of Gods, but at this moment he could not help but pray since there\'s nothing else he could do.

Fade placed his hand on the little girl and after a while, the little girl started coughing out a small amount of blood. Once that was done, Fade sprayed something on the wound. He then proceeded to insert a little bit of mana Fade controlled it so flawlessly that the inner energy within Milly could not respond on time. The wound then started to visibly close up a bit. 

Fade needed to close the wound fully by stitching it, but he didn\'t want to do so, well even if he wanted to he could not since he didn\'t have the proper materials for that. Still, what he did was enough to prolong Milly\'s life, giving them more than enough time to head to a hospital. 

Seeing that he was done, John quickly checked on his daughter. The wound on her abdomen was smaller than before but still visible. John then bowed to Fade with tears in his eyes. 

"Thank you for saving my daughter!" 

"Your daughter isn\'t saved yet, you still need to bring her to a hospital. Not to mention you guys are still being chased by those martial artists." 

When John heard what Fade said his face turned pale. He looked at Fade with desperation in his eyes as he was the only chance they had to survive this ordeal. 

"Fade, please save us." 

"So are you going to hire me now?" 

John became silent for a bit since he understood what Fade meant when he said the words hire. That would mean Fade would start killing. John hesitated for a bit but when he look at what happened to his daughter he gritted his teeth and made a decision. 

"... I will hire you, but please just deal with the martial artists that are chasing us." 

"Alright, I accept the job. Can you carry your daughter and the detective out of here?" 

"I might have lost an arm but I\'m still a rank five martial artist." 

John picked up the detective over his shoulder and used his head to grab hold of her so that she won\'t fall, he then took his daughter and carried her in his arm.

"Thank you for everything"

"There\'s no need for that, I\'m a professional and this is but a job. I will come to find you later for my payment." 

John nodded his head in response and sprinted away. Once John was no longer in sight, Fade fixed his gloves and started walking towards the direction of where the nine martial artists were at. 

"Time to get to work."
