Hitman in Another World

The criminal underworld referred to him as Baba Yaga, a hitman known for his flawless record yet disastrous timing. At the age of twenty, Ray pushed a young girl out of the way of an oncoming delivery truck on a rainy street in New York. He found himself dying in a puddle, cursing his own softness. Upon awakening, he discovered a crystal terrace in the sky, where a very displeased goddess was in the midst of her welcoming address. His immediate inquiry was whether the position offered compensation. The assignment involves Dante, a demon king who is gradually siphoning the life from Verfall, one river at a time. The reward, softly murmured into Ray's ear, is deemed worth dying for a second time. The twist is that no one is allowed to confront Dante, neither this year nor in the next decade. Thus, Ray begins from the very bottom, like every professional does. He wields two rune pistols that no one in Verfall has ever encountered, along with a System that charges him for every miracle he performs. Yuzu, a healer with a sharp tongue, is determined to ensure he doesn't meet his end cheaply. He jokes, negotiates, and flirts with goddesses who would prefer he didn't. But when a job commences, his smile fades, and the wise ones are already fleeing. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Hitman in Another World — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
