The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

As Aiden was guarding the tent that they had set up, he started questioning why he needed to do so.

'Are there monsters in this forest? If so, why didn't she tell me?' Aiden thought.

As Aiden was thinking about whether there were monsters or not in this forest, he started hearing animal noises nearby.

But thinking that it was only normal animals, Aiden quickly dismissed them and went back to waiting.

'Should I go to sleep? I'm sure there won't be any problem either way,' he thought as his eyes were starting to close by themselves.

Fatigue overwhelmed him and he fell asleep right outside of the tent with monsters nearby who were ready to pounce on him at any moment.

Was he going to wake him in time, or would he get woken up as he is being eaten by a monster?

A few moments after Aiden had fallen asleep, a little green monster was entering the camp they had just made.

It was a goblin, he felt that the presence who was guarding this place had suddenly disappeared and he decided to use this opportunity to attack them and steal some of their items.

The goblin was armed with a little sword that corresponded to his small green body. He approached discretely Aiden who was on the ground, face first, he really did fall asleep.

As it was getting closer and closer to Aiden, he started moving his dagger closer to the neck of Aiden.

Aiden who was a trained assassin had obviously woken up long ago, feeling the presence creeping up on him.

After all, this was part of his basic training as an assassin always be ready for any sort of attack even if you don't expect it.

Aiden had let the small creature enter the camp to see what it would do first and he felt that it was coming toward him, he already knew what it would try to do.

Aiden gripped his dagger while still faking his sleep, when the goblin got close enough Aiden slashed behind a speed which was extremely fast and decapitated the goblin in a single strike.

[You have killed a goblin.]

[You have gained 40 XP.]

After killing the goblin, it seemed that some sort of signal was sent because a lot more of the growling from earlier was starting to be heard and it was getting closer from all around them.

Noticing Aiden decided to wake up Mia to let her know that they were being attacked.

"Mia! We're being attacked, wake up!" Aiden shouted as loud as he could still trying to make sure that she would be waking up.

After all, he didn't want her to die in her sleep by a monster that had slipped from his hands.

Mia, hearing a shout, opened her eyes not sure what was happening.

She didn't understand what Aiden had just shouted, she only had woken because of the noise created by it.

As she opened the tent, she saw a horrible scene, goblins, animals, and different types of monsters were all on the ground dead but that wasn't all. Because as she turned her head to the left, she could see Aiden who was still fighting against at least five monsters at the same time.

A random thought popped up in her mind.

'Doesn't he look hot right now?' She started blushing because of what she had just thought of.

It was just because of how fierce his expression looked. That expression could make any girl fall in love with Aiden, and Mia wasn't an exception. Still, this wasn't the time nor the place to be thinking of this.

She quickly changed her mind and went straight out of the tent wanting to help Aiden who, in reality, wasn't having much difficulty fighting those monsters. If he got hurt then he could regenerate his injury. His weapon was also excellent, only needing a single attack per monster.

It was different from the first trial where his weapon was so dull that he needed multiple strikes to kill even one zombie.

It felt great to Aiden to have that feeling once again of being a Reaper, decapitating his enemy in a single strike. He had missed it even if he didn't want to admit it.

He was so immersed in killing those beasts that he didn't even notice Mia who was approaching him.

He didn't notice her presence since she didn't have the objective of hurting Aiden.

Any monster in the facility who wanted to hurt Aiden would be felt by his incredible senses.

Shortly after entering that trance of his, he had killed every monster who was around him with Mia who had not been able to do anything because of how fast Aiden was at killing those monsters.

It was so impressive that the same thought as earlier popped up in her mind. She could only admire how beautiful-looking he was right now, a small amount of blood covering his face.

'He looks like a Reaper, ready to kill anyone who approaches him,' Mia thought, having absolutely no idea of how close her statement was to reality.

Suddenly, Aiden looked to his right and finally noticed that Mia had been watching him all this time.

"So, how was it? Was I able to protect you? Haha!" Aiden said as he started laughing, trying to calm the tension in the atmosphere.

"Y-Yeah, it was fine, you were great," Mia admitted, having difficulty speaking as she turned around and went back into the tent.

"Wait! Isn't it my turn to sleep?" Aiden said, now really sleepy after defeating all those monsters.

Mia looked back at him, wondering if he was serious. A bunch of monsters had just attacked him. Of course, he needed to keep guarding the tent.

"Oh and don't worry about being attacked by monsters, I'm quite sensitive to noise while sleeping."

"Sure, you can sleep but let me reorganize the inside of the tent, first. I didn't plan for us two to sleep at the same time," she replied as she started going into the tent. She made sure there was a wall of cushions between the two of them so that they wouldn't touch each other at all. For some reason, she seemed scared that something might happen between the two of them.

After she was done, she called Aiden into the tent and they both slept well. This time, not being distracted by any monster.
