Hitman x Wives-Chapter 51 - Sound Talent

Chapter 51- Sound Talent

Calling the man's condition horrid was an understatement. He looked as if he just crawled straight out of the deepest parts of hell. Even his face looked like it had lost 30 years or so in mere minutes since the invasion.

Mind you, hitmen were people who had an extremely high pain tolerance. The Guild makes sure to test their pain tolerance before officially making them hitmen just to reduce the chances of important information being leaked in case the hitman is captured and tortured.

So, things like bullet wounds, blade injuries of all forms, and other things, didn't immediately break the hitman's spirit. That's why, to counter such a thing, rich families and individuals hired people who mastered the art of torturing for this particular job.

These people were simply called 'Extractors'. They were able to inflict the highest degree of pain on their target and easily turn them into mindless puppets that answered questions before they killed them.

However, even those people can't easily turn a hitman into a desperate mess of flesh, blood, and broken bones. Who did this was a complete monster in and out. A maniac with a thirst for blood. Someone who had no regard for the human life.

Eva looked coldly at the man before she aimed her gun at him and pulled the trigger.

"Only Kai can touch me, filth." She said coldly as she stepped forward.

That's when a loud explosion caught her attention. Looking in the direction of her sister's bedroom, she saw the door getting blasted as three silhouettes flew out and smashed against the wall before down like used ragdolls. Their bodies were shattered into pieces and their face were ruined beyond recognition.

"Sigh, Meli… Didn't I say not to use that hammer excessively?" Eva said with a sigh as she facepalmed. She already who was responsible for that massacre.

"Big sister!!" Hearing her beloved sibling's voice, Meli came rushing out of her room and kicked one of the dead hitmen out of the way as if he was a piece of trash.

Her clothes were coated in blood and her cute, adorable face had a stain on it. However, the little girl had a cute smile on her face as she approached her big sister happily. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙣𝙚𝒕

In her arms was a massive hammer made out of steel that was at least 5 times her size. The sight was comically dark since the hammer was completely coated in blood. However, seeing a kid holding something that big was indeed a weird sight.

"Did you kill all of them?" Eva asked as she tapped her sister's head gently.

"Yes! Oh, no, wait, there was someone that ran away! I will go kill him!" Meli shouted happily.

"Hold your horses, little girl. You're staying with me till we meet mother and father." Eva said.

"But whyyy~? I want to play more~" Meli pouted as she looked away.

"No, it's dangerous."

'Tsk, I don't think I can fight Gabi while protecting Meli. I need to make sure she leaves before.'

*Clap* *Clap* *Clap* *Clap*

At that moment, Eva heard clapping sounds coming from the other side of the corridor. Immediately, she stood in front of Meli with a sharp look on her face.

"*Yawn* What a crazy family that old man got himself entangled with. Even their youngest brat could be a monster through and through. I guess Birds of the same feather do flock together after all." A man appeared in front of the two sisters, walking casually.

His signature neck tattoo and harmless face coupled with his dead-fish eyes made Eva's aura turn even colder.

"It's been a while, Evangeline." He said.

"Didn't I tell you before that my name is not that, dumbass?" Eva replied.

"Hahaha! Don't blame me for calling you like that, Evangeline has a good ringing sound to it. It also fits your character very well. Evangeline is a word that means 'Good News' and your presence itself is good news for me." He said as he tucked his arms inside his pockets. "The only woman to ever approach the Black Phantom. You are a treasure of valuable information about him. Sadly, I couldn't really extract that information from you because of the rules but since that doesn't matter now, I can finally get to know more about him."

'He is still the same pervert that worships Kai. Disgusting!' Eva couldn't hold herself from frowning. She already knew how much Gabi was obsessed with Kai and that made her hate him even more.

The only person who has the right to obsess over him was her and no one else!

"Well, that would be the optimal conclusion. But looking at your sister, she seems more than capable of handling herself. As I thought, those weaklings wouldn't be able to stand a chance."

"Big sister, is that a bad guy?" Tucking her sister's, Meli asked confusedly.

"Yes. But, stay behind your big sis-" Before Eva could say anything, Meli had dashed forward and smashed down with her hammer.

The moment the weapon connected with the ground, a huge earthquake shook the whole building before a huge crack appeared on the floor that started spreading at an extremely fast speed. Out of that crack, huge rock protrusions rose one after the other.

Gabi watched the show with an interested expression even though the attack was rushing toward him at an extremely high speed.

"She also mastered her main talent enough to pull off such a feat? *Whistle*" Whistling lazily, Gabi stretched his arm before he channeled his Origin and created a barrier.

*BOOOOM*

The two powers clashed violently, shaking the house again.

"Meli! What are you doing?" Eva quickly rushed toward her sister and pulled her away.

"But, sister said he is a bad guy. I will crush him." Meli responded with a cute tilt of her head. She didn't get why her big sister was angry.

"Don't attack him! He is dangerous! Stay behi-"

*Swish*

"Oh, no, Evangeline. You can't pull your eyes away from your enemy."

A sudden chill ran down Eva's spine as she felt a presence appear behind her before a kick was sent right toward her ribcage.

In an instant, her body reacted as she guarded against the kick with the revolver. But, even then, Eva found herself pushed back a few meters.

"Big sister!!" Meli yelled as she tried to hit Gabi with the hammer. However, the latter simply stopped it with his bare hands.

"Now, now, little girl, don't be naughty."

"Hnnng! You are bad! Big bad person!!" Meli's adorable face turned angry as she glared at Gabi.

At that moment, Eva aimed her gun and shot three bullets at him. At the same time, Meli freed her hammer and quickly followed with another swing. The two were perfectly synchronized as if they fought together before countless times.

"Hey, hey, don't come at me both at the same time. Where is the fairness? Ah well~"

Saying that Gabi's Origin quickly rushed to his hands and then.

*DIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGG*

A loud noise penetrated the sisters' ears. Pain assaulted their brains as if they were hit in the hair by a train. Around them, mirrors started chattering and the walls were seemingly shaking as they reverberated along with the noise.

Meli's hammer stopped midway and the bullets that Eva shot magically fell down to the ground before they reached their target.

'My ears!!' Quickly coating her ears with Origin to reduce the pain, Eva glared at Gabi who had a nonchalant expression.

"You should've expected that to happen, Evangeline. Even though you did stop it, apparently your little sister is still too immature to do that."

Immediately, Eva's eyes shifted to look at Meli who was on the verge of losing consciousness.

"Meli!!"

Her yell made the little girl shake her dizziness as she adjusted her posture.

"I'm… fine… Ugh! My ear hurt!"

"Now, come here, little girl. Don't worry, I will make it quick." Approaching the weak girl, Gabi extended his arm to grab her.

Suddenly, Gabi's eyes shifted to look somewhere else before he jumped back, creating a big distance between him and Meli.

His smile vanished and was replaced with his lazy expression again albeit sharper and more serious.

"And the family now is complete." He murmured as he watched two presences appear next to Meli.

"Mommy! Daddy!!"

"Don't you dare touch my daughter, bastard!" Markus said coldly as he cracked the neck of a man he had within his grasp before he threw him aside.

"Are you ok, sweetheart? You too, dear?" Selina checked her two daughters with a worried expression on her face.

"Mmm, I'm fine!"

"Don't worry, Mother. Did you get rid of the invaders?"

"Mmm, they were quite tenacious."

The situation was completely turned upside down. From fighting two people, Gabi now had to fight four and not any people. These four were powerful Origin users and three of them were professional hitmen.

It was completely over. Gabi had no chance of winning.

"Pfft!! Hahahahaha!" Instead of looking grim, A loud, hearty chuckle erupted from Gabi as if he just heard the best joke of his life.
