Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 150

Chapter 150: No Reaction?
Fiona used her blessing multiple times during that conversation with Mark! Usually, there would be some sort of reaction from him whenever she uses her blessing to try and control him! Either he would notice that she used her blessing and ignore it or he would glare at her for using it on him and tell her never to use it again! But there was always a reaction from him!

But this time, there was absolutely nothing!

It felt as if Mark did not even notice that she used her blessing on him at all! Every time, she used the blessing while talking, she noticed that there was no reaction from Mark, he just continued talking like nothing happened! Fiona was certain that Mark’s mental fortitude was so strong now that there was just no chance of her blessing reaching him!

Is this not the same thing that happens with the Undefined superhumans?

Whenever Fiona tried to use her blessing on a superhuman that was above S rank, they would not even notice that she activated it, and it always felt like she was using her blessing against a brick wall. That was the same feeling that she got when she used her blessing against Mark just now!

Don’t tell me that Mark was already above S rank. That would be madness. Just how fast is he growing?

…

“Take it slow and try not to rush it. You don’t have to do it quickly. Just try

doing it once first.”

Mark was standing in a large room inside his penthouse and looking down at Arit who was sitting on the floor. Arit was wearing a pair of sweatpants and a tight black sports bra that helped to carry the weight of her breasts, and Mark watched her breasts rise and fall as she took in deep breaths.

Arit was holding onto two eggs- one in each hand- and they were currently training her on how to control her strength. This was the same method that Mark used to train his strength when he was just a beginning superhuman. After Mark had his first fight against that Armageddon class Anima and lost his system a while ago, Mark noticed that he could not control his strength at all and everything that he touched would crumble under his strength because of how weak it was.

So he used eggs to train himself on how not to put too much power into his arms unconsciously. Mark would carry the eggs around with him wherever he went and make sure that he did not clench his hands too tightly or use too much strength in his hands. Mark did this exercise for more than a week before he finally managed to carry the egg around for a whole day without breaking it once. After that, he used the egg while doing intense exercises. He would hold the egg in one hand and lift weights in the other hand. Or he would punch a punching bag while holding the egg in the other hand; that way he could keep his strength in check and he would not have to worry about unconsciously breaking something, or worse, hurting someone unknowingly.

Mark was using the same training method for Arit now. But there were some changes that he made to the training regime. For Arit, she could already control her strength to a certain degree. Mark noticed that whenever she was in her normal state and her eyes were their normal black, she had the strength of a normal girl. She couldn’t bring out any of her inner strength once she was in her human state. But when her eyes turned to the yellow slits that QUEEN had, she could bring out a lot of power.

That meant that Art had to learn to control her strength whenever her eyes were in that form. When Mark first told Arit about all of this, she was shocked to learn that her eyes had a transformation. Arit had never seen the transformation before, so when she finally saw it in the mirror for the first time, she almost passed out on the spot!

Mark managed to calm her down and he told her that she had to learn to control her strength when in this state because she did not know how to fully control her body yet. If she changes into her anima form while in school, then she could unconsciously cause a lot of damage.

Arit agreed, and they started her training. Art would hold two eggs in her hand and she would gradually try to bring out her anima self. Arit was a little scared to even try the exercise at first because it was almost like she was giving control of her body to her alter ego, but Mark told her that it was fine. Her alter ego was still her, so she would have control even if it came out. That was what Jeanne said and they could trust her.

The first time they tried the exercise, it didn’t even take ten seconds for the egg to break!

Crack!

Art sighed as she heard the sound of the egg cracking in her hands. She opened her eyes and looked towards Mark with her yellow-slitted eyes, and she blushed as Mark smiled at her kindly.

“Sorry.”

Arit quickly apologized for not being able to do it properly, and Mark told her that it was fine. He never expected her to get it on her first try. Even he was not able to get it that quickly. After hearing that, Arit gained some more confidence and she began trying again.

She continued the session with Jeanne to help her control QUEEN better, and she was also having her session with Mark that would help her control her strength if she ever brought out QUEEN.

But now, after more than three weeks of going through these exercises, Mark could tell that Arit had come a long way. Mark watched as Arit opened her eyes to show the yellow-slitted eyes. He quickly glanced down at her fists and saw that she was still gripping the eggs tightly, but they were not breaking or cracking, and he smiled at her.

“Good work, Arit. Just keep it like that. Are you still hearing the voices?”

Arit frowned and she seemed to be contemplating something before she nodded.

“Yes, but they aren’t as loud as before. It’s almost like they are talking from behind a wall. If I concentrate, then I can tune them out or make them go to the back of my mind so I don’t get distracted by them.”

Mark nodded in understanding when he heard that. Mark felt extremely proud of how far Arit had come in the past three weeks. She was an extremely fast earner and he was sure that this was the reason why she learned how to do this so quickly. He spoke up while taking a few steps back.

“That’s good. Keep them in check so they don’t distract you and try to keep the egg steady. We are going to test your adaptation.”

Art tilted her head in confusion as she heard what Mark said. What did he mean by ‘we’?

Woosh!

Art quickly bent her head to the side as she felt something whiz past her cheek! She quickly got to her feet and took a large leap backward as she saw a large teddy bear standing in front of her. Wasn’t that Talia’s bear?
