Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 141

Chapter 141: On My Neck
The Superhuman killer 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.

If the superhuman killer dares to attack Mark at any of these moments, then Madam Luna will definitely find out where that attack came from, and that would be the end of the road for him. The superhuman killer might be the best at killing people undetected, but he had no delusion that he could escape from someone like Luna if she knew his general direction.

She would probably quarantine the entire area in less than a second using her blessing and then hunt him down like a beast. He did not want to go through something like that. It would be more trouble than they were paying him for.

And worst of all, he could not think of a way to kill Mark while also killing Luna. His job was Mark Vanitas, but the superhuman killer would not mind eradicating Luna as well if she got in the way. But wanting to kill her and finding a way to kill her were two very different things. Mark Vanitas was only somewhere around S rank, but someone who has gone beyond that like Luna would be very difficult to kill.

‘Would my bullets work against her?’

The superhuman killer was capable of killing superhumans mainly because of his special arsenal of bullets and explosives that he created specifically for superhumans. Superhumans were powerhouses that could tank regular ammunition and explosives like they were nothing. A regular C rank had enough protection from just his skin that a bullet would just bounce right off his body if he was shot. B ranks would not even feel anything, and if you shot an A rank and above, they would probably just catch the bullet. They were that strong.

So, the superhuman killer had to develop an entire series of bullets and ammunition that he could use against these powerhouses. He made the bullets from diamond and Anima bones, fused together to form a complex matrix structure that rotated and pierced through superhuman skin like paper. The superhuman killer already tested the bullets on S ranks, and he knew that they worked, but he had never even dared to try using them on an undefined superhuman before.

The mystery surrounding Undefined superhumans, as well as the general lack of knowledge about their strength limits, prevented him from being able to create weapons for them, and that meant he did not take jobs that involved them. If he knew that Luna was going to be here…

No, he already took the job; there was no backing out now. The superhuman killer looked through the scope of his sniper rifle as he continued watching Mark in the distance as Mark mounted his bike to go pick up Arit. There was no way that Luna would continue watching Mark forever. The superhuman killer would just wait for the right moment when Luna lets her guard down, and that is when he would attack.

…

Vroom!

Mark’s Kawasaki ZX-4RR motorcycle stopped in front of a small café in the middle of the street, and he turned and watched Arit waving goodbye to Jeanne as she came out from the café and walked towards him. Arit was wearing faded blue jeans that clung to her thighs and one of Mark’s Black t-shirts that she stole a long time ago. Mark grinned at her.

“Hey, babe.”

Arit smiled as a small blush spread across her face once she heard him calling her babe. Even though they had been dating for some time now, she was still not used to some of the things that were now normal for them. She leaned down and kissed Mark gently.

“Hi. Thanks for coming to pick me up.”

Mark chuckled as he just told her to get on. This girl needs to stop thanking him for doing things he wants to do. Talia was sitting in front of Mark and she huffed as Arit kissed her on top of her head, but she did not push Arit away; instead, she looked like she simply tolerated Arit’s actions.

A while back called asking Mark if he should come and take Talia from them since he already left her in their hands for too long. Mark didn’t mind Talia staying with them for longer and when he asked Arit, Arit told Mark that it was fine for Talia to keep staying with them. Arit liked having Talia around the house.

Mark told Talia about this and said that she had to learn to get along with Arit if she wanted to continue staying with them since Arit was nice enough to allow her to stay with them. Mark wouldn’t want them to keep fighting all the time, so he wanted them to be friends. Talia decided that she would tolerate Arit for now just for Mark. She didn’t care about making Arit like her, but since her big brother wanted her to get along with Arit, then she would try.

“Hi, Talia.”

Talia huffed at Arit and muttered quietly.

“Big-breasted bimbo—ow!”

Mark tapped Talia lightly on the head, and Talia looked up at him with a pout and tears on the edge of her eyes. Mark raised a warning brow at her, and she huffed and muttered a small apology at Arit. Arit was already used to the hostility from Talia, so she didn’t mind, and she just went to sit behind Mark.

Arit was not even affected by what Talia said, and the main reason for this was that she didn’t hear the voice in her head shouting. Arit could not describe how relieved she felt when she did not hear the voice shouting at her to kill Talia. It made her realize that her sessions with Jeanne were really working.

After having more than eight sessions together, Jeanne was able to teach Arit a meditation technique that would allow her to take control of the voice and quiet it down to prevent it from ranting and distracting her thoughts. This technique allowed Arit to constantly keep the voice under her control, and it was now much harder for the voice to try and take over her mind. Jeanne told Arit during this last session that if she continued at this pace, she would soon no longer need the therapy, and Arit felt her heart soar with joy as she heard that.

This means that they could go back to school soon! Arit has been keeping up with her studies even though she was no longer going to school, and she made sure that Mark was also keeping up, so even though they went back to school right now, they won’t be behind the other students! Arit couldn’t wait to get back!

Mark turned to the side with a frown as he felt something prick against his skin and his frown deepened when he didn’t see anything there. Mark didn’t know why, but for the past few days, he had been feeling like someone was watching him. He didn’t know if it was just his imagination because he never sees anything when he turns around, but he just can’t get that feeling out of his head.

“Hey, is everything okay?”
