Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 140

Chapter 140: What The F*ck Is She Doing Here?
Luna was wearing a black face mask and a cap that would prevent people from noticing her, so she didn’t have to worry about being noticed and she just watched Mark from a distance without being spotted.

But for some reason, she didn’t go up to Mark. She noticed that Mark was with Arit and Talia that day, and she didn’t feel like going up to him and ruining his vacation. She wanted to know more about him before going up to try and talk him into joining her guild. So she started to stalk him.

Luna was never going to tell anyone that she was doing such a thing, and if anyone ever found out about it – especially those in her guild, she would never be able to live it down!

But there was no other way to describe what she was doing. Luna used the excuse of exercise to go out in the morning every day at the same time that Mark was going out to jog. She would go around with him and then divert at the last moment before coming back alone to prevent him from knowing she was right beside him. She would follow him when he sometimes went to work out at the gym, and she would watch him from her window when he and Arit left the house with Talia, and she would keep tabs on where they were and what they were doing.

She noticed that Mark would usually spend time with Talia in the park while Arit would go somewhere else. She sent one of her men to see where Arit was always going, and the man came back and told her that Arit was going to see another superhuman known as Jeanne. Why would that girl be going to see one of the most popular superhumans in America?

Luna was one of the people who tried desperately to get Jeanne into her guild at the start, but she was not able to get Jeanne no matter how much money and opportunities she threw at her. Jeanne didn’t care about the money; she cared more about freedom, and Luna was not going to allow something like that from one of her guild members.

Why would you be a part of my guild and go around healing people from other guilds for free? That was absurd. Luna already had a healer, so she decided that it was better to just forget about Jeanne and focus more on developing the healer that she could keep tabs on. Their healer might not be as versatile as Jeanne, but they were an S rank and they had more than enough ability to heal any serious injury that the superhumans in the guild developed. It was better to develop a healer who listens to what she tells them to do and forgets about Jeanne since Jeanne’s desperation for independence would ruin her guide dynamics.

Luna hummed as she looked out her window at the park in the distance. The park was more than a kilometer away, but she could still see just fine because of how good her eyesight was. She took a strand of her hair and put it behind her ear while smiling as she saw Mark hoisting Talia up to put her on his neck.

Luna noticed that she was smiling and quickly killed it and shook her head. She was only here to observe Mark Vanitas. She shouldn’t be acting like a creep and smiling like this while watching him.

“I wonder why he started taking care of James’ grandchild. Did he do it because he owed James a favor?”

Luna did not know enough about Mark to answer that question. In all the time that she has been watching Mark, she has only been able to get the bare minimum of information about his life. She knows that he frequents a gym once a week and he also jogs every morning. He stays indoors a lot, so there were no hobbies she could pinpoint.

All in all, she has barely found out anything about him that would help her bring him to her guild.

But she didn’t realize when she started becoming more interested in Mark in other ways. She was no longer looking out for him just so that she could find out how to get him to join her guild. She was now genuinely invested in finding out more about him. Mark was very interesting to Luna.

All that power and no desire to become famous whatsoever. Mark was someone who had the potential to be the most celebrated superhuman in America if he wanted to be. There have been many Anima attacks in the one week that Mark was here, but Mark has ignored all of them because there were superhumans in the area who could take care of them without needing his help. He basically chooses his battles and only goes to fight against monsters that would give him a challenge. Luna could understand a veteran superhuman doing something like that because they were already famous and they had all the money and fame they would ever need, but someone like Mark who was just rising up would usually jump on these easy opportunities to raise their reputation and standing in the public’s eyes. But not Mark. Mark was indifferent to it all.

Luna leaned closer to her window, and she could feel a smile spreading across her lips as she saw Mark smiling at Talia while walking towards his bike to go pick up Arit.

“What makes you so different, Mark Vanitas?”

…

The second person watching Mark was someone who was much further away than Luna. The superhuman killer was lodging in a hotel a few kilometers away from where Mark was lodging. He had an apartment up in the penthouse to give him a clear view of the city, and he was watching everything Mark was doing very closely.

Right now, he was trying his best to note Mark’s schedule so he could find out the best moment to attack him. But there was one problem that appeared a few weeks ago. There was another superhuman around Mark now, and this one was someone that the superhuman killer had no intention of going against.

Luna, the GODDESS OF WATER, who was hailed as the strongest female Superhuman in the American Federation. What the fuck was the head of the Moonlight guild doing here!?

Luna tied her hair into a bun and she was wearing a cap and mask, and that was enough to fool any normal person into thinking she was someone else, but it was not enough to fool the superhuman killer. The superhuman killer lived a life that depended entirely on his ability to detect people even in the most inconspicuous places and disguises. That means that he could tell people apart very easily based on features other than their faces.

The superhuman killer was able to tell that the masked woman was Madam Luna by assessing her manner of walking and how she tilted her head whenever she was thinking. That was all he needed. But that presented an issue for him. He noticed that Madam Luna was always watching Mark Vanitas.

Whether he was going for a run or going to the park with his family, her eyes were always on him.
