Strongest Superhuman System

Poomf!

Mark hugged Arit tightly and leaned down to whisper in her ear. Mark could feel some wetness on his shirt, and he held her tighter as her tears increased.

"I'm not angry that you killed them, Arit. Just don't lie to me again. Even if the entire world is against you, you can trust that I'll be on your side. I'll protect you no matter what because I know everything you do is to protect me. You can trust me."

"Waaa! I *sniff!* I'm sorry for lying! *sniff!* I'm sorry!"

Mark sighed as he felt his heart squeeze as he heard Arit crying. She was such a crybaby.

Arit bawled her eyes out into Mark's chest, and Mark just pet her head gently as he told her that everything was going to be fine.

Mark glared into the distance as he began to think about what the future would be like. He couldn't allow anyone to find out that Arit was the one who killed those two. As of right now, the only people that knew about Arit were the siblings, Patrick and Jeanne, and since they were both fucking smart, it was impossible that they would not figure out that Arit was the reason for the deaths.

Mark had to talk to Jeanne and make her keep this to herself. Mark knew that Pat was on his side, so Pat wouldn't reveal the information even at gunpoint, but would Jeanne do the same thing? Mark had to make sure.

If Jeanne was going to be a problem, then Mark was going to have to find a way to deal with her too. But even that was nothing compared to what Mark was planning to do to the Coltons and Salazar. Even though Francis was dead, it was his father that sent the superhuman killer after Mark. Mark does not forgive such transgressions easily, and he would deal with the Coltons properly.

And as for Salazar...

Well, they were all killers now. So Salazar had better get ready.

...

The next day, Mark and Arit could not go to school since the school closed its doors to allow the police to carry out a proper investigation regarding the deaths of Esmeralda and Francis. Mark knew that they would not find anything that would implicate Arit, so he was not bothered about what they would do to the bodies.

Instead, Mark was using that free time to look into Salazar and find out as much as possible about that man.

Mark always knew that Salazar was somehow involved with the superhuman killer, even though the superhuman killer was not hired by Salazar. Mark could tell that Salazar was responsible for most of the information that the superhuman got about Mark. Mark was just thankful that he did not reveal too much about his abilities to anyone. That prevented anyone from being able to pinpoint exactly what he was capable of, and it made the superhuman killer easy to deal with.

Mark knew that if the superhuman killer knew how versatile Mark's blessing was, then there was no way that he would try to use a single sniper bullet to kill Mark. The killer would have covered at least two city blocks with explosions and unloaded massive torrents of bullets on Mark just to account for every possible defense that Mark might have.

But he didn't know anything, and that was what caused him to lose in the end.

But now that the killer was dead, Mark needed to start thinking about handling events that were going to be coming for him. Right now, there were three categories of people that Mark had to deal with.

The first category are the Coltons and the Fortunas. These two were part of a large family, and Mark knew that they would not stay silent after their son and daughter were killed. Even though Mark did not have any issues with the Fortunas or Esmeralda openly, he knew that the Coltons would see him as the prime suspect for Francis' death, regardless of if Mark was at the scene or not.

The Coltons knew that Mark and Francis were at odds, so they would pin this on Mark, and if they are pinning it on him, then they will try and drag the Fortunas into it as well.

But that was good for Mark. Mark was already looking for a good reason to deal with those families, and once they show any open hostility, he would have found a justifiable reason to end them. But Mark knew that he could not handle this as a superhuman. Using his excessive strength to handle the Coltons and Fortunas would only make him more enemies.

The one thing that humans hate is watching someone use physical strength to destroy people who cannot fight back. Instead, the world would much rather see you beat up someone who knows how to fight a little, even if that person is much weaker than you.

No, Mark was not going to use his physical strength for the Coltons and Fortuna's. He would go back to his roots and drag the Vanitas Company under his control once more to use it in dealing with this issue.

The second category of people that Mark has to deal with is Salazar, the NSA, and the government. Mark knew that Salazar was rotten, but just how deep does that rot go? There is no way that Salazar was the only member of the government that was rotten! If Salazar was bad, then there had to be one or two people in the NSA and government that are helping him with his fucking plans.

Mark was going to have to weed out these people. Mark knew that he couldn't just go and kill Salazar now, not after what the killer told him. The killer said something about a syndicate, and that showed Mark that Salazar was not working alone. There would probably be someone else who would replace Salazar the moment that he is gone.

But even though that was the case, Mark still wanted to wring that bastard's neck. If things start getting out of control, Mark decided that he would damn the consequences and just kill Salazar. Even if someone else takes over from where Salazar stopped, then he would deal with those consequences as well.

The third thing that Mark had to deal with was actually the most mysterious one yet. The Syndicate. A mysterious group in Japan that was responsible for backing Salazar and his plans. Before the killer said the name of this mysterious group to Mark, Mark had never even heard about them before.

Mark sent all the information that he got from the killer to Pat and told Pat to try his best to find out anything about the syndicate, but Pat was not very confident that he could find out anything about them.

From what Pat heard over the ear pods in Mark's conversation with the killer, Pat knew that the syndicate was probably a group that ran deep into the Japanese cultural heritage. They would not have much of an online presence, and if they did, then at best, they would have an ultra-private Local Area Network that they use only for communication amongst members.

It would be like trying to find a needle in a field of hay.
