Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 33: Interrogation Room

Fiona hated the way women always threw themselves at the superhuman males whenever they saw them, and she was going to have to give that woman a talking-to later on! The superhuman males were the epitome of what masculinity was, so Fiona could understand that some of the women couldn't help themselves, but there were limits! How can you blatantly flirt with someone you know is still only a high schooler!? Do you have no shame!?

"Fiona is right; they will never stop throwing themselves at you, and they can get very annoying when they try too hard. But do not worry; there are some fun ones out there."

Taylor patted Mark on the shoulder as he passed and said this, and Mark could see how Fiona turned around and glared at Taylor in anger once she heard it as well! Fiona started to reprimand Taylor, and Taylor just raised his hand and said he was only joking! But from the look he gave Mark, Mark could tell that the bastard was definitely not joking! Mark just shook his head as he accepted this strange side of the superhuman world. In a way, he wished he could have stayed anonymous for a little while longer!

The inside of the room was almost like an interrogation room! There was a large table in the middle of the room, and four chairs were arranged around the table, three on one side and one on the other side. There was a man already sitting on one of the chairs. He wore a suit, and his black hair was gelled back to reveal his smooth angular face! Mark couldn't feel the strength that he felt from Fiona and Taylor in the man, but Mark could tell that the man was also a superhuman. He was probably an E rank or maybe a D rank that was only in charge of handling minor problems around the office.

The man invited Fiona and Taylor to join him on that side while Mark went to sit on the other side of the table! Mark could only feel like he was in a police station, and they were about to start asking him questions! He didn't feel uncomfortable facing the three of them, but he knew that the man was trying to intimidate him, and it irritated him! He decided that he would just go through with this so he could learn more about that island since they seemed to have more information on it than Pat!

The man that was sitting in between Fiona and Taylor introduced himself as Grey. He told Mark that he was a D-rank superhuman and he was the researcher in charge of handling the dissemination of information regarding the island! He didn't shake Mark's hand, and he spoke with a professional tone that automatically created a distance between himself and Mark. It was like he was trying to make it clear that he was a higher rank than Mark even though Mark was stronger than him, and Mark should give him respect.

Mark just folded his hands and sat back with a bored look in his eyes. If the man didn't start talking soon, Mark was going to leave.

"That island is something that we have been watching for a long time now. We don't know everything about the island, but what we do know is that it is far more dangerous than we first thought. But before anything else, we have to first evaluate your eligibility to receive this information. We already know you are of a high enough rank since you must be at least a high-level A rank to be able to defeat a Calamity Class. But we also need to know who your patron god is as well as the blessing that you received. These things will tell us whether or not you can be given the information."

Honestly, the man did not need this information at all! Both Fiona and Taylor knew that the man did not need this information, but they both stayed silent since this was just how things were done in the NSA. The NSA liked to keep track of every superhuman, and they would always need to know who the patron god of the superhumans was along with their blessing!

Mark kept his heavy gaze on the man once the man said this, and the man gazed right back at Mark with equal intensity. Mark didn't know how things were done here, but he didn't feel comfortable telling anyone about his system. Mark knew that it would be a great advantage for him to keep his system a secret, and he would rather not tell them about it! So Mark just made up a fake power and told them about that. His powers weren't as flashy as fire or lightning, so he didn't need to tell them the truth for them to believe him.

"I have the ability to gain extra power the more enemies I kill. The amount of power I gain depends on the strength of the enemy and the amount of effort I put into killing it. I don't know my patron god."

[Comment from GoG: You're really denying me, Mark!? After everything I've done for you!? You ungrateful virgin mortal bastard!]

Mark felt his eye twitch as he read what Sozin sent to him through his system and quickly closed it with a thought while ignoring the childish god. Mark knew that Sozin wasn't really angry. If Sozin was angry, then there wouldn't be such a response, and the message from Sozin would sound far more threatening! Sozin was literally just having fun!

The other three people in the room were not as amused by what Mark said as Sozin was, and his words put them into deep contemplation as they all thought about what sort of power he had!! They all immediately recognized that Mark's power was very impressive, and there was a feeling of desperation in Fiona as she wanted to get Mark to join her guild now more than ever!

There was only one other person in the world who could claim to have a power that was as ambiguous as Mark, and that person was one of the strongest S ranks in Japan. She was a woman blessed by the god of war, and she had the power to grow in strength as she fought against stronger enemies. The stronger her enemy, the more power she could bring out from within! There hasn't been a single battle that she has lost because she has been able to match her enemies blow for blow every time and outlast them! Her name was Megumi Yoshida, and she was known as the Battle Angel of Japan!

Is Mark also blessed by the god of war? That could be the reason why he can gain power as he kills.

Grey could only think like this as he looked at Mark with new eyes! Mark was no longer someone who was just strong! Mark was now someone that the NSA would want under their wing at any cost! Grey leaned forward and spoke in a grave tone.

"You say that you do not know your patron god, but how can I know that you are not lying? Something like that is a big deal, and the NSA cannot just trust you without first finding out who is giving you your powers! But there is another way. The NSA will be more willing to help you if you are ready to take on our flag and become a core member of the association. I am sure this will not only be good for you but also for your missing friend. After all, you want to save her at any cost, right? Joining the NSA will make us more motivated to help you since you will be one of our own –"

Slam!

Crash!!

"Wow~ You've really done it now~"
