Harem Streamer System: Every Crime I Broadcast Wins Me a Superheroine - Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Deadly Clash II
The evacuation of Metro City’s East District was still underway, but progress was agonizingly slow. Thousands of panicked civilians clogged the streets like blood in a failing artery, desperate to escape the chaos that Red had unleashed.

Overhead, Scott soared through the smoky air.

He carefully scanned for anyone still trapped in the deeper parts of the district.

His armor’s HUD lit up with a notification:

[System Alert: Remaining civilians in Zone C-34: 54. Structural collapse risk: High. Immediate extraction recommended.]

Scott grit his teeth and dove down, dodging the occasional debris that rained from nearby crumbling buildings.

“There──!!”

Spotting a small family stranded atop a partially crushed SUV, he swooped in to grab a man and his two young daughters with precision.

“Hang on tight!”

He called out as the little girls held onto him tightly, like he was their favorite teddy bear. Their big, tearful eyes looked up at him, filled with fear and hope.

Meanwhile, the mother, still holding her toddler close, was next in line to be taken to safety.

He set them down in a safer zone, where rescue crews were guiding evacuees to buses.

“Thank you, thank you so much!”

The father stammered, but Scott was already taking off again with an arrow-focused mind.

The chaos below was deafening.

Fires raged, horns blared, and screams mingled with the distant roars of Red as the beast slowly regenerated.

Suddenly, his sensors picked up a faint cry from beneath a toppled awning. A boy, no older than five, was pinned beneath the wreckage as tears streaked his dirt-covered face.

Scott landed in a crouch, then lifted the debris with ease and pulled the boy free.

“Are you hurt?”

He inspected the child for injuries.

The boy sniffled and shook his head, but his face twisted in fresh distress.

“I lost it…”

Scott blinked. “Lost what?”

“M-, My MegaMan…”

The boy whimpered as he pointed a trembling finger toward the rubble.

Scott followed his gaze and spotted the blue action figure wedged precariously in the debris.

“…Really?”

Scott muttered under his breath, staring at the toy.

“It just had to be MegaMan…”

The boy’s teary eyes tugged at something deep in Scott’s chest.

With a sigh of resignation, he turned back.

“Stay here.”

He maneuvered carefully through the unstable wreckage and reached out to grab the toy. Just as he plucked it free, a large chunk of concrete shifted above him, but he dodged swiftly with the figure safely in hand.

When he returned to the boy, the child’s face lit up.

His tears were no more.

“MegaMan!”

Scott scooped him up and took to the skies, quickly locating the boy’s mother amidst a group of evacuees. The moment she saw him, her face squeezed into terror.

“MICAH!”

She screamed and fell to her knees.

Tears streamed down her tired face as she clasped her hands together.

“Please, please don’t hurt him! I’m begging you!”

Scott landed softly and lowered the boy to the ground.

“He’s fine…” Scott said, calm yet firm.

The mother’s trembling hands reached out and pulled Micah into a crushing hug.

“Don’t you ever scare me like that again!”

She sobbed as she stroked his hair.

Micah hugged her back tightly, grinning.

Scott watched the reunion and something inside him stirred uncomfortably.

『… That’s gotta hurt me more than anything.』

He knelt briefly, then held out the action figure.

“Here. But maybe next time, pick a better superhero. Ever tried Miss Mercury? She’s got some decent merch.”

Micah giggled, taking the toy. “Okay!”

The mother finally looked up at Scott.

Her expression softened as she noticed the cracks in his armor and the way he favored his left side.

“Are you… okay?” she asked hesitantly.

Scott gave her a faint nod. “I’m—”

He stopped abruptly as his helmet parted in four.

A violent cough wracked his body, and he spat out thick, black blood onto the ground.

His throat burned like it was on fire.

The mother gasped, covering her mouth.

She realized with a start how young he looked, probably no older than her daughter.

Scott closed his helmet with a hiss and turned away, ready to fly off—but she grabbed his wrist.

Before he could protest, she pulled him into a tight hug, resting her head against his chest plate.

“Don’t worry about anything…”

She sounded so soft… almost like she was his mother.

“I know you’ll get out of this alive.”

Micah joined in, wrapping his little arms around Scott’s leg.

[Bruh, why am I tearing up?]

[You know that hug hit different for him. 🥺]

[Man’s getting love from civilians while coughing up black blood. That’s dedication.]

[MegaMan slander is uncalled for, tho. Let’s be fr guys #JusticeForMegaMan!! 🔥🔥]

[This is why heroes fight, though. These moments right here. It really empowers them in their darkest times.]

[Can we talk about how expensive that action figure probably was? Definitely $2,000 😑 overpriced piece of shit!]

･･･

In a news chopper hovering nearby, Judy Cho was narrating the scene with deep emotion.

“It seems the Black Knight may be more friend than foe.”

Her soft eyes locked on the footage of THAT hug.

“He’s not just saving lives—he’s making sure no one is left behind, not even a child’s toy. It’s… incredible.”

Her cherry lips curved into a small smile.

“Maybe he’s the truest definition of a hero we’ve waited for—a demon with the halo of an angel.”

The pilot snapped his fingers.

“Judy, focus! What are you even saying?”

Just then, John’s voice blared through her headset.

“JUDY! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!”

She winced, nearly dropping her mic.

“Chief, can you not yell? I’m literally in a helicopter!”

“I don’t care! Stop painting him as a hero! You know Konrad Kain’s network will twist this, and we’ll look like idiots!”

“So I should lie? I’m not selling out for ratings!”

Before he could retort, she shut off her comms.

Back on the ground, the trembling of the earth signaled Red’s return.

Scott turned sharply, spotting a truck hurtling toward him and the family.

“GO!” he shouted.

The mother grabbed Micah and ran as Scott flew headfirst into the truck and tore through it like paper.

He shot toward Red, attempting a spear tackle, but the monster planted his legs firmly, transforming them into clawed clamps that rooted him to the ground.

Scott slammed into Red with a thunderous impact—and didn’t budge him an inch.

[Livestream Chat: 1.2M viewers]

[OOOOOF. That looked painful.]

[Red with the Uno Reverse Card. 💀]

[Goatwatch’s getting folded like laundry rn.]

[But he still saved a kid’s action figure, so he wins in my book.]

└ [Sure thing, bro. Tell that to the advanced CTE he sustained from that collision. 💀]

･･･

Scott coughed violently and his chest heaved—but his resolve didn’t waver.

The towering monstrosity that was Red stood before Scott, its body swelling with stolen mass and energy.

Its newly grown arms were bristled with spiny black blades.

Scott’s helmet readjusted as he craned his neck upward and took in Red’s expanded, horrifying face.

『He’s bigger… and meaner.』

Scott clenched his fists and suppressed the ache in his battered body.

“Fuck it. Round two…”

With a roar, Scott lunged forward and drove a punch straight at Red’s midsection. The blow landed with a dull thud, but Red barely flinched. His massive claws shot out like a viper and clamped around Scott’s right arm.

“Not again──!”

Scott growled as Red’s second claw snatched his left arm.

Pinned and struggling, Scott cursed under his breath.

“You’ re just full of surprises, aren’t you?”

As if in response, Red’s chest split open, revealing two sinewy, bladed appendages that shot forward and plunged into Scott’s shoulders. His armor groaned in protest, but the blades pierced through and sent burning pain through his body.

“ARRRGHH!”

Scott screamed until his throat cried.

The livestream chat exploded with reactions:

[Livestream Chat: 1.7M viewers]

[Oh God, he’s getting destroyed out there! Someone help him! Where are the other heroes?! 😭]

└ [Nah, this is Knightwatch, bro. He’ll find a way. He always does.]

[The way those blades just went through his armor though… yikes. It’s just not fair.]

[Red’s straight-up built like a final boss. This ain’t fair.]

[That scream just gave me chills. Is he okay? 🥲]

･･･

Despite the agony, Scott’s teeth clenched behind his helmet as the System finally spoke.

[Alert: Critical Damage to Shoulder Plates. Stored blood energy reserves at 78%. Recommendation: Initiate omnidirectional blood blast. 40% reserve required. Confirm?]

Scott’s voice came in a hoarse growl. “Do it.”

Instantly, his black armor began to glow with an eerie red hue, veins of crimson energy spreading like wildfire across its surface. The blades embedded in his shoulders trembled as if sensing the impending surge.

Red’s gnarled arms dug deeper, trying to merge with Scott’s armor. The parasitic biomass hissed and crackled, but Scott’s resolve was undying.

“BIG mistake!!”

In the next instant, a cataclysmic wave of blood-red energy erupted from his body, annihilating everything within a forty-meter radius.

… bwwoowww────BOOOOOOM!!

The blast tore through the ground, disintegrating debris, structures, and even the remnants of Red’s biomass.

A shockwave rocked the skies, throwing Judy Cho’s news chopper into a perilous spin.

[Livestream Chat: 2.2M viewers]

[HOLY SHI──!!]

[WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! 🔥🔥🔥]

[That blast was insane. Did he just nuke the area?!]

[Bro literally wiped the map. This is some next-level shit.]

[Is Judy okay? Someone check on Judy!]

[Black Knight is HIM. End of discussion.]

[That blast was massive. 😳]

└ [You know what else is massive?]

└ [No… don’t say it… 💀]

└ [Low taper faaaaadeee 💅✨]

･･･

In the helicopter, Judy clutched her chest as the pilot regained control of the chopper.

“Phew… that was close…”

She muttered with a pale face.

She glanced down at the battlefield-or rather, whatever was left of it.

A massive crater stretched out below.

The ground… scorched and barren.

Even the pilot was flabbergasted.

“Everything’s gone. He just… leveled it.”

Judy adjusted her headset and went professional.

“And yet, the Black Knight remains standing. The question is… for how long?”

･･･

On the ground, Scott rose from the center of the crater as steam rose from his armor.

His breath was ragged and his shoulders oozed black blood where the blades had pierced. He looked around, spotting Red──or what was left of him. The monster had lost over 65% of its biomass, its hulking body was now a pitiful shell.

[Livestream Chat: 2.21M viewers]

[Nah, Red’s cooked. No way he’s coming back from this. Put the fries in the bag bro. 😭🙏]

[This is legit what happens when you mess with the Black Knight. GG.]

└ [I swear Nightwatch is a friggin’ crash out. 💀]

[LMAOOOO. Imagine regenerating only to get folded again. Couldn’t be me.]

[Lowkey, though, is BK okay? He looks rough.]

└ [That’s how my girl looks when we’re done in bed. 💀]

└ [Shut yo virgin ass up, bro. 😭🙏]

･･･

Scott didn’t waste the opportunity.

He shot forward, rocketing into Red with a devastating spear that slammed the monster into the ground.

Dragging the malformed creature across the asphalt as he delivered a relentless barrage of punches to its mutated face. Each blow cracked its skull further and reduced it to a bloody pulp.

“THIS IS FOR EVERYONE YOU’VE HURT!”

Scott roared as his fists hammered down.

Red’s claws shot up, grabbing Scott’s wrist. Its face twisted and reformed into a gnarly plasma cannon.

“DIE, MEAT!”

It bellowed, firing a searing blast at point-blank range.

Scott’s armor sizzled under the heat, but he didn’t flinch.

Instead, he drove his fist straight into the cannon’s barrel.

The resulting explosion obliterated Red’s head and hurled Scott backward.

[Livestream Chat: 2.23M viewers]

[BRO. JUST. PUNCHED. A. PLASMA. CANNON. 🤯]

└ [He’s gone a long way from surviving one. 😌]

[That’s gotta be the most metal thing I’ve ever seen.]

[Red’s regeneration is mad annoying, but BK’s brutality makes up for it.]

[Black Knight really said, “Adapt or perish.” ]

[If I were Red, I’d simply give up.]

└ [Nah, fr tho. This is embarrassing now. 💀]

･･･

From afar, Denise watched alongside a grim-faced Future Scott whose brow wrinkled as he observed the younger version of himself.

“This isn’t how it went…”

Future Scott muttered.

“I remember sacrificing everything, making the darkest choices to destroy Red. But this… this version of me is…”

“Inspiring?”

Denise suggested as she smiled teasingly.

“That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. This is Scott Prime. The original timeline. His choices aren’t carved in stone like yours. He’s rewriting what it means to be a hero.”

Future Scott exhaled heavily.

“I see it now. But if he doesn’t survive…”

“That’s why you’ re here.”

Denise interrupted while staring softly at him.

“Not simply to caution him, but to ensure the women around him believe in his vision. To guide them, unite them, and protect what he’s building.”

Future Scott nodded solemnly. “I understand.”

･･･

Back in the crater, Red staggered to its feet, now reduced to 15% of its original biomass. For the first time, Scott caught a glimpse of the host within──a gaunt, malnourished man whose face was etched with torment.

Scott froze. “It’s a human…”

[Livestream Chat: 2.25M viewers]

[Wait, what? Red’s a person?!]

[Bro looks like the parasite ate him alive.]

[Human or not, Black Knight better finish the job. No mercy. I want to see blood. 💪🔥]

･･･

Red absorbed the surrounding earth and regained 30% of his mass.

His eyes locked onto Judy’s helicopter.

“FILTHY PIGS!”

He roared as his arm transformed into a massive plasma cannon.

Scott’s voice boomed across the battlefield.

“DON’T YOU DARE!”

Just as Red’s plasma cannon was heated up and aimed straight at Judy’s helicopter, a blur of motion sliced through the battlefield.

… ZIIIIIIP!!

The viewers barely registered what had happened before Miss Mercury slammed into Red from behind at supersonic speed and her impact sent a shockwave that reverberated across the crater.

“Not so fast, big guy!”

She smirked as Red stumbled forward while his cannon’s energy sputtering.

Before Red could grunt in reaction, a brilliant streak of purple shot upward.

Pulsar appeared from nowhere like a starfire.

“Try this on for size!”

Pulsar shouted as her star-powered fist delivered a devastating uppercut.

… pow────BOOOOOOM!!

The eruption of purple starfire lit up the battlefield and rocketed Red into the sky like a comet.

The livestream chat exploded.

[Livestream Chat: 2.31M viewers]

[WHERE DID SHE COME FROM?!]

[HOLY SHIT, PULSAR’S A BEAST! 😱]

[Nah, Mercury saved Judy’s life. Respect where it’s due.]

[Did y’all see that uppercut?! Bro went flying like Team Rocket. 🚀💀]

[Black Knight could never…]

└ [WTF bro 💀 the switch up is crazy asf.]

･･･

High above the battlefield, waiting at the edge of a shattered skyscraper, stood Lady Fortress. Her cape billowed in the wind as her sharp eyes locked onto the ascending monster.

“Showtime…”

With a burst of speed, she launched herself forward and speared Red mid-air with such force that the sickening crunch of his body splitting in two echoed across the city. Red’s body was ripped apart and his halves dangled briefly in her grip before she spun gracefully in the air.

“Oh no, you’re not done yet…”

Lady Fortress growled as she grabbed both halves of Red and hurled them upward with a Herculean toss.

Her eyes began to glow, then smoke, and finally erupted into twin beams of golden energy. The beams struck Red mid-air to disintegrate him into a fiery explosion of biomass and ash.

The shockwave rattled the cameras, leaving the battlefield completely silent.

[Livestream Chat: 2.36M viewers]

[Bro just got deleted. 💀]

[Mercury → Pulsar → Fortress. The combo was immaculate.]

[LADY FORTRESS IS THE GOAT! That beam was simply a chef’s kiss. 👏🔥]

[Pulsar had the flashiest move, though. Don’t @ me.]

[Miss Mercury carried. No Mercury = No save = No win.]

[Hold up, y’all notice how Miss Mercury got the tiddies while Pulsar and Fortress are in the itty-bitty committee?]

[Bro went from praising heroes to measuring cup sizes. 💀💀💀 Diabolical work.]

[Mercury mains eating good tonight.]

[Meanwhile, Black Knight out here looking like burnt toast. 💀 Damn, brother.]

･･･

As the dust settled, Lady Fortress descended gracefully to the ground to land alongside Pulsar and Miss Mercury.

The trio stood in a line as their heights and builds emphasized their distinct styles.

Miss Mercury towered with her long legs and exaggerated curves, Pulsar shimmered with her celestial aura despite her smaller stature, and Lady Fortress, slightly taller than Pulsar, exuded raw, unyielding strength.

Scott staggered forward.

He was still steaming from his earlier blast.

Even his voice was hoarse.

“Wh-, What… what’re you all doing here?”

Miss Mercury placed a hand on her hip, leaning slightly as her lips curved into a cute grin.

“What else? To help you, silly. What, did you think we showed up for an orgy freak-off party?”

Lady Fortress and Pulsar turned sharply to stare at her.

Miss Mercury’s grin faltered as she twiddled her index fingers nervously.

“C-, Can you not look at me like that? I was kidding…”

Lady Fortress folded her arms.

She was mostly always silent, but her expression clearly showed she was unimpressed.

She scanned Scott from head to toe.

“You’re in terrible shape. Don’t tell me you couldn’t handle that thing on your own? We just took care of it like it was nothing.”

Scott opened his mouth to retort, but Pulsar interjected in her soft, almost angelic voice.

“He must’ve had his reasons…”

[Livestream Chat: 2.41M viewers]

[Wait till someone tells her Red regenerates… 💀]

[Lady Fortress slandering BK while Pulsar out here defending him. The duality. 😭]

[Black Knight > Fortress. Y’ all forgetting when he soloed an entire rogue beast like Red.]

[Nah, Lady Fortress legit pushed a warship bigger than Earth. Sit down.]

[Meanwhile, Mercury over here with them tights that could break the dimensions in my pants. 💀]

└ [SleazyPen, you again bro? 💀]

･･･

Miss Mercury rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue.

“Tch. My guy could handle anything.”

Lady Fortress raised an eyebrow.”Hm? ‘Your’ guy?”

Scott and Miss Mercury both froze, then turned to each other in alarm.

“Eh?!”

The chat went wild.

[Livestream Chat: 2.49M viewers]

[ “Your guy?” 🤔 EXPLAIN YOURSELF, MA’ ΑΜ.]

[BK x Miss Mercury confirmed? I’m calling it. 🚨]

[Ship it. I don’t care. 🚢]

[Black Knight stays winning.]

[This team dynamic is pure gold. More of this, PLEASE.]

･･･

Future Scott clicks his tongue. “Tch, lucky…”
