The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

Chapter 40 - 40: A Part of her Past

After Elle hung up the phone, Phantom smiled to himself.

"It seems like my dearest disciple is improving a lot each day and attracting more enemies."

At his table was a file about Chief Detective Inspector Erick Lee. He used his connection in order to gather information about the detective who saved Elle. He investigated him right after he heard from Charles that he was the one who save Elle.

Erick had a good reputation. Phantom also had a good impression of him when he first saw him in the picture, of course, it was because of his good looks and dashing appearance. He was expert on his field and had achieved many things but what was more worth-admiring for about him is that he was so generous and compassionate towards others.

He was really curious how can this detective deal with his disciple who was cold blooded, aloof and ruthless. A meaningful smile flashed on his face.

Phantom reminisced his moments with Elle. She was only 10 years old when he saved her and she was barely alive then. She was badly injured both physically and emotionally.

At a very young age, she went through a hell of experience witnessing her parent's death and she faced it bravely. An ordinary kid probably couldn't take it but she survived it. What she had attained today was the fruit of her determination and her will to survive no matter what.

She had undergone an extreme and very intensive training. Some of her scars were cause by life threatening trainings that she went through. She endured all the hardsh.i.p.s just to become a skilled and full pledge assassin.

He could see his old self to her when Elle begged him to train her. Her eyes were full of determination, hatred and rage, it was the same eyes that he had when he hold the lifeless bodies of his wife and son who were bathing with their own blood. Just like her, his beloved family was murdered and he wanted to avenge their death that lead him to this sinner's path.

Of all people, he was the one who truly understand what Elle was feeling that time. He didn't have the heart to reject her so he decided to train her to become like him. He took care of her.

As time goes by, he didn't notice but he became very fond of her. He started to care with her and treat her as his own daughter. He didn't imagine that a day would come when he would feel this kind of emotions again after everything that happened to him. He started to change and later on he retired and quit being an assassin. He focused on guiding her, mentoring her and training her.

At the age of 14, she did her first killing. He could still remember the look in her eyes that time, her dark cold eyes were devoid of emotion as the blood of her first victim splattered onto her body and face. No mercy.... no emotion... she was very fierce.

Her first victim was one of those persons who was involved in her parent's death. With the help of Phantom, they were able to locate him. She got her first revenge. But they failed to track the other members but they got their names. He told her to focus on her training first to become strong. Her revenge could wait for the right time.

She understood what he meant so she agreed with him. She knew she was still weak and lacking abilities for now. She temporary left the past behind and she continued to move forward. She continued to train and live as Elle, her new identity. Later on, she would come to collect their debts.

She continued her training and pursue her studies. She choose a course that would be helpful to her and that was computer programming.

Later on, she accepted missions and Phantom introduced her to Charles who became her accomplice. She had killed so many people and became known as Catseye the Devilish Assassin.

She became addicted to killings and blood. She was completely changed into a new persona. The sweet and kind little girl before was nowhere to be found. She became a perfect killer machine.

Merciless, Fierce, Vicious and Ruthless were the words that people could associate with her. That's how they describe her, a living devil.

She became infamous both in the underground world and the society.

She successfully followed his footsteps and even surpassed him. Even though Phantom disappeared from the limelight but another devilish killer resurfaced. Unknown to them that the legendary assassin Phantom who retired was the one who trained this Assassin. He was proud of her.

Meanwhile... Black Shadow and the remaining Skull Gang members who attacked Charles were now standing in front of James to report the incident last night.

James was looking at them seriously. Anger, disappointment and unhappiness could be seen in his eyes. He already knew that his men failed again.

"We almost got him but some group interfered. They attacked us. They looked like they were following us secretly from behind and they suddenly fired bullets to us when we caught Catseye's accomplice. That's why he was able to escape." It was Black Shadow who reported to him.

"Did you find out who are they, from what organization they belong?" James asked them with a stern voice.

Black Shadow shook his head. "Our main focus was to capture Catseye's accomplice so we didn't have time to chase the other group. They were strong and very skilled also. They seemed like they also targeting Catseye and her accomplice."

"What's is your thought about this? Give me a better answer if you want me to forgive your another failure this time." James asked him.

"There are two possibilities. One, that group was another enemy of Catseye that she had offended and they also wanted to get back at her. Second, they wanted us to prevent from knowing the truth about your father's death. It seemed like they were following us from the beginnning." Black Shadow replied.

"As expected... you are good in analysing situations. We have the same thought." James praised him.

"It will be more difficult now to catch Catseye. They will become more careful. We found their hide out but it was a shame they blew it up in front of us. Catseye is really difficult to handle. She has many hidden tricks." Black Shadow felt frustrated.

"She was waiting....waiting for the right time to strike. She has been quiet for a while but I am sure she already has a plan for counterattack. We must prepare for it." Black Shadow added.

Other Skull Gang members in that room were frightened when they heard Black Shadow. Catseye was really known because of her devilish reputation. They had seen how the others were killed in her traps how much more if Catseye will be the one to act.
