Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 696 - 14.92

Reed separated himself and got up from the bed. He fixed his pajamas and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Gaius asked worriedly.

"… I have to take care of something," Reed said as he walked out. He had one thing in mind.

'I have to kill Clarke now.'

Reed pressed the passcode to enter a secret room inside this house, and then he was teleported with a lift to his villain den. All the supervillains were already waiting for their Master in the villain den. They are The Revenant, with Reed Ville as the Master.

"Welcome back, Master," one person said and then followed by the others as they bowed down. 

Reed stared at his supervillain members and scoffed, "Before I summoned the thing that I've worked on these days, I will ask you all one more time. Can any of you defeat Superbman alone or in a group?"

"I'm afraid none of us can take him alone, Master. And even if we take him together, he could just call reinforcement from the League of Heroes, and it'd be way too difficult to even touch him."

"Tch, useless bastards! I saved all of you from the slum so you can serve me. But none of you are worthy enough," Reed scolded. But he couldn't do much about it because what they said was correct. None of them were able to take care of Clarke except Reed.

But since Reed didn't want to dirty his hands, he decided to use a device that he worked on that would absolutely kill Clarke Gaist. 

"Alright, since there is nobody that can kill him, we will drop this thing tonight—" Reed paused and pressed a button on the table. 

The conference table opened and showed a steel ball with a purple glow from the inside. It seemed to contain a mysterious yet overwhelming power.

"Master, what is that?" 

"This… this is a nuke. The moment we open the seal, it will become a timer nuke that might consume 3/4 of the city, and it'd absolutely obliterate anything on its path," Reed said. "And this is the thing that we could use to kill Superbman."

"But we did this once, Sir, with a timer bomb. Superbman just held it and flew far to the atmosphere. One more time, he just swallowed the bomb, and it exploded inside his body, and he was completely fine."

"That's because it's just a normal bomb. But this ball… this is imbued with dense kirktonian stone, Superbman's weakness."

"This stone was so difficult to find these days, and when Superbman was stabbed with Kirktonian stone, he will bleed. That's why I smothered Kirktonian stone, turning it into dust and imbued it inside, hence the strong purple glow."

"Superbman will die if he tries to eat this nuke. Even touching it will burn his body."

"This steel ball will emit a horrible burn to anyone who tries to touch it directly as well. So there is no way to pick it up in such a short period of time. The only way to save the city is for Superman to swallow this and fly to space, exploding in emptiness alone. It'll be a perfect ending for him," Reed said ruthlessly. 

The members of The Revenant looked at each other in silence and nervousness. 

Master Reed was vile. Of course, that was his nature. But he would rarely punish someone like this because he was nonchalant about this superhero vs. supervillain ordeals. All he wanted to do was to create some chaos for his entertainment. 

But it seemed that something had incited him to step up and do such a heinous thing to Superbman. 

"Do not question my authority. We will drop this nuke tonight and get rid of Superbman forever."

As Reed had dropped the order, nobody dared to question him, and they just nodded to agree with him. 

Reed stared at the steel ball with a purple glow from the inside. He was actually weak to Kirktonian stone as well, so he had to use his money and connection to excavate the remaining kirktonian that landed on earth the time he landed from the pod with his big brother. 

'It's nice to have a big brother, Clarke. But there is someone far more important than you.'

Clarke was busy patrolling around the city at night as Superbman. He didn't do it because he liked it. But this was his original duty before he got married to Gaius. 

Now that he was technically on the verge of divorce with Gaius, this was the only thing he could do in the meantime. 

He was absentminded the whole time, continued to think about Gaius and the kids and how he longed for them, "I told myself to forget about my wife… but I just can't. Gaius is my life, my aim, the light of my darkness."

"Without him around, I'm just a mindless tool to protect the city... this is not what I want to do…." Clarke said to himself while he was patrolling around.

Then, he could sense the air thinned, and his sense guided him to the city center. 

"What is that?" Clarke wondered as he saw a steel ball with a strong purple glow from the inside. He approached it and stopped at around 100 meters vicinity because the purple glow actually made him weak and burned his skin!

"This is—!" 

Clarke got a sudden call before he could finish his sentence, a call from Reed. 

"Hello, Big brother," Reed greeted. "Are you surprised by the steel ball in the city center?"

"REED! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT NOW? YOU ALREADY HAVE MY WIFE AND CHILDREN, YOU BASTARD! STOP MAKING TROUBLE!" Clarke scolded. 

"Why? Do you not realize that I'm the Master of The Revenant this whole time? You've been completely fooled, Big brother."

"YOU!"

"Well, you don't answer my call kindly. Then I'll just give you a small hint for that steel ball. It is a timer nuke capable of destroying at least 75% of the civilian in this city. It is also imbued with dense Kirktonian energy. You will get hurt if you dare to swallow it like usual. And even if you try to fly out of the atmosphere to the space, it will still explode right in your face, and you will die, Big brother."

"Damn it, Reed! What do you want from me?! You already have everything right now! You already destroyed my fucking life!" Clarke cursed as he got up and tried to approach that steel ball.

Clarke knew that he had acted fast before that nuke detonated and killed too many civilians. He had already guessed that Reed must've been with The Revenant after what he said just now. 

"What do I want from you?" Reed thought for a moment and said on the phone, "I just want you to leave this world, so I can fuck your ex-wife, brother."

"Now that you have no other way except to commit suicide to save the city, I'll see… whether you will save yourself and leave or take that steel ball and die in the process."

"You... you really hate me, don't you?" Clarke was too numb at this point. He wasn't even shocked by the reveal.

"No, not really. Big brother, I just hate everything that you obtain and throw away.. I hate how lucky you are."
