Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Cursed Item:
Eh?

What the fuck was Sozin talking about?

Mark read through Sozin’s message again and frowned in annoyance as he knew that this was going to be another pain in the ass. What the fuck did Sozin mean he messed up? Explain it to me better than that, you damn bastard!

[Comment from GoG: I said it’ll be fine. You should be happy right now! You finally ranked up! Yay~!]

‘Don’t change the fucking topic!’

Mark put his hand on his head as he tried to stop the headache that he knew was coming. Sometimes, having Sozin as a patron god was like having a powerful figure to look up to, but at other times, it was like having a troublesome alcoholic father who only spends his life doing stupid shit! Mark just knew that whatever Sozin did would make the gods even more angry at him!

‘And how the fuck do you keep stealing from the gods? I’m not complaining, but aren’t there rules against it or something?’

[Comment from GoG: Rules? No such thing exists here. In this world, you are only as right as your power says you are. None of those old fogies can touch me, so they are wrong. I did nothing wrong.]

Mark couldn’t stop the chuckle that escaped his lips once he read through that message. That was the most childish thing Mark had ever heard anyone say in his life. Sozin was basically the school bully who would seal your lunch and then punch you for saying that he stole your lunch.

I didn’t steal it. We’re just sharing as friends, aren’t we?

But Mark decided that he was not going to complain about it. Why would he complain when he was benefiting from it a lot? He would just overlook it and hope that it really wasn’t a big deal.

Ping!

A new notification appeared at the edge of Mark’s vision, and his brow furrowed in concentration as he read through it. This is what Mark had been waiting for all this time. The gift that comes whenever he advances in rank.

…

The user has advanced in Rank from S -> EPIC RANK I

Congratulations! This is an amazing feat that most people will never achieve in their lifetime!

The User has gained a new Cursed Item [Ticket to The Game of Gods]

[Cursed Item [Ticket to The Game of Gods]: A ticket granted to the user by Ares, the god of war. It will transport the user into Ares’ domain, and the user will partake in a game of Ares’ choosing. The rules and criteria for victory in the game have been withheld by Ares, and they will be broadcast to the user once the user activates the ticket.]

…

An item suddenly appeared in Mark’s palm, and Mark looked down at it in surprise before bringing it up to eye level. Mark thought that he would be getting a key just like the last time he got a cursed item, but it turns out that this time it was different. Mark was holding a piece of paper that looked like a movie ticket. It was black with purple lines running all around it, and there was an image of a chess piece on the paper.

“Is that a pawn?”

Mark raised a brow at the paper curiously as he wondered what it could possibly mean. The system message said that this was a ticket to some sort of Game of Gods, but it didn’t say anything more than that, so Mark was just left confused as he wondered what it could mean.

Don’t tell me that I have to go inside the game before I can tell what’s going on like last time. Mark remembered that the last time he got a cursed item, he didn’t get any extra information about what he would be walking into until he was already in there, so he was basically going in blind.

Wait… now that Mark thought about it, wasn’t the armor that he got also from Ares? Didn’t Sozin steal that shit from Ares recently? So, that meant Mark was going into a game created by the god that his patron god just stole from? That fucking…

[Comment from GoG: Hehehe~ My bad.]

Mark put his hand to his head as he felt his headache coming back.

“Mmh~ Mark. You’re still awake?”

Mark turned to the side as he heard Arit waking up from sleep. Arit shifted under the covers, and Mark could see how her wide hips and large breasts made the covers gather towards her side. She brought out an arm to touch Mark on the back, and Mark caught a glimpse of her pink singlet that was low enough to show off some of her milky white cleavage. Under the cover, Arit was only wearing that pink singlet and a pair of white panties. Mark could feel himself getting excited as he stared at her figure, but he had to stop himself from getting too excited as he remembered that Arit was currently on her period. They couldn’t do anything for now.

Mark was sitting down at the edge of his bed in his black joggers and black singlet while looking through his system, and he smiled as he leaned down and kissed Arit gently. Arit’s chest heaved under the sheets, and her nipples pushed up tiny tents in the covers that drew Mark’s eyes to them like a magnet! Mark shook his head and kissed Arit again. Arit was too sleepy, so she did not notice that Mark was also wearing a pair of black running shoes. Instead, she smiled into the kiss and touched Mark’s arm happily as he spoke.

“Go to sleep. I’ll be in bed soon.”

“Aren’t you tired?”

Arit caressed Mark’s arm gently as she looked at him with half-lidded eyes that were very sleepy. Arit knew that Mark had been through a lot today, so she was worried that he was pushing himself too far without resting. He should get some rest since they would be going back to school soon.

Arit herself was really sleepy after the work that she did today, so she wasn’t even able to keep her eyes open for long as she waited for Mark’s response.

Mark just shook his head and caressed Arit’s head gently while telling her to go back to sleep. He would join her once he was done. Arit hummed sleepily as she obeyed and closed her eyes to go back to sleep. She wasn’t going to force Mark to sleep if he didn’t want to go to bed yet.

“Come to bed soon, okay?”

Mark caressed Arit’s head once more as he whispered gently.

“Sure thing, babe.”

Arit smiled happily in her sleep, and Mark waited till he heard her breathing even out to make sure that she was asleep before he tightened the ticket in his fist.

“Send me in.”

[Does the user wish to use the Cursed Item [Ticket to The Game of Gods]? Yes/No]

Immediately, Mark selected yes, he felt his eyes droop closed, and his body fell back into the bed.
