Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 149: Don't Do Anything Rash

Mark narrowed his eyes in shock. What?

"There was someone else watching you. I can't tell you who it was since he was too far away for me to get a good look at him, and I only noticed him because he was watching me too. I don't know if you are ignoring him because you believe you can defeat him at any time, but I suggest you get rid of him as quickly as possible. Unlike me, I can tell he had far more nefarious intentions.

If you don't get rid of him soon, then your family could be in danger."

Once she was done saying her piece, Luna left, but Mark was left in shock as he wondered how he could have missed something like this. There was no doubt that the person that was watching him was the superhuman killer. That bastard has been watching from a distance and Mark hasn't even sensed him once. Doesn't that mean that he could have attacked him at any moment when he was with Talia or Arit?

Mark wondered why the superhuman killer didn't attack them.

This also happened before when Mark wasn't at home and the killer went to visit Arit. Doesn't that mean that the superhuman killer will not attack unless Mark is alone? Mark looked up at the tall skyscrapers surrounding the city as he wondered which one the superhuman killer could be using as a base.

"Pat, did you get all that?"

Pat's haughty voice came through Mark's air pods as the sound of a keyboard clicking echoed across the call.

[I'm already on it. I triangulated your location and narrowed down the search for him, but it will take some time to find anything substantial. Don't do anything rash in the meantime. We can't let him know that we know about him, he might run if that happens.]

Mark already knew that if they started looking for the superhuman killer aggressively now, there was every possibility that the bastard would just pack up and escape. Mark squeezed his fist in anger as he felt useless in this situation. He wanted to just go and destroy that bastard, but he couldn't make any rash decision right now so that they don't lose this advantage.

The superhuman killer knew where Mark was, but Mark didn't know where the killer was, so he was at a large disadvantage right now. Mark had to just keep doing what he had always been doing and hope that Pat would find something before long.

Fiona watched Luna leave with a sneer on her face, and she clicked her tongue and looked away once Fiona disappeared down the road. She really hated that bitch. How dare Luna look down on her guild like that!? And who the fuck is she calling a small guild!? Luna made it sound like it wasn't an insult, but Fiona could feel the insult from a mile away! Luna was definitely looking down on her guild! MVLeMpYr-only

Just because Luna is beautiful, she thinks that the world revolves around her!

"Fucking flat-chested bitch."

Fiona muttered low enough that only Mark could hear it, and Mark could only wonder what the hell happened between Fiona and Luna that made Fiona hate Luna so much. Mark was curious, but he didn't care enough to ask, so he just dropped it when Fiona turned to him with a grin.

"Mark, it's been too long. You really took your sweet time on that break of yours, didn't you? I was afraid I would have to wait for another month before seeing you in the field again. You know you're a member of my guild now, so at the very least I need to know how long you're going to be off duty so I can work around that."

Mark glanced down at Fiona for a moment before he spoke.

"That wasn't our deal. I don't have to tell you what I'm doing or where I'm doing it, and this partnership isn't going to last for very long, so you shouldn't get used to it. If you have a mission that only I can handle, then reach out to me. But other than that, try not to bother me."

Fiona frowned at Mark as she saw him answer her in his usual rude and distant manner. They've known each other long enough for them to be friendly with each other, and yet Mark was as distant as ever. It was almost like he put this wall between them and nothing she does could bring it down! Fiona sighed in disappointment and nodded slowly.

"Yes, yes. I was just joking around a bit. There is a mission coming up soon, but it will take some time to clear the red tape around it since it is a joint mission with other guilds. I'll send you the details on the network later."

Mark nodded at her. He would have stayed to get more details about the missions, but he was not in the mood after hearing what Luna just said. Mark knew that they most likely weren't in any danger, but he still wanted to check and make sure that Arit and Talia were alright. Mark jumped off the ground and vanished from the area.

Fiona frowned as she watched him go, and she looked around with a sigh. The area was not as bad as it usually would be in a Calamity class attack, and they had Mark to thank for that since he was able to contain the Calamity class so easily. But it was still crazy how someone who struggled with a Calamity class monster only a week ago was able to completely overpower the same class of monster now.

Isn't he growing too fast?

"He got stronger again."

Tylor walked up from behind Fiona and spoke up in a contemplative tone. Tylor kept his distance from the talking group out of respect for Mark, but now that Mark was gone, he decided to speak his mind. Fiona hummed as she looked towards the area where Mark just left. Taylor continued.

"I can usually guess my chances of winning against an opponent based on what I see in their movement and stance. But that boy is really something else. I feel like he is a completely different person compared to who I saw the other day. If I tried to attack him, then it wouldn't even take two seconds before he takes me down. It might be even less than that if he is really trying.

Maybe I should get back to training again."

Tylor only muttered the last part of his sentence, but Fiona easily heard it, and she just scoffed and told Tylor to go and grab the anima corpse so that they could take it with them. They needed to use it to make more weapons for the guild.

It wasn't that Fiona didn't think that Tylor could get stronger. It is just that the gap between Tylor and Mark was so great that no amount of training would be able to close it. It was more likely that Tylor would get depressed from not being able to catch up to Mark since Mark was so much stronger than him, and Fiona did not want that.

It was already bad enough that he lost some of his confidence during that island raid, Fiona would not accept him losing any more of his confidence because of his desperation to be better than Mark.

And from what Fiona noticed during the small conversation that she just had with Mark. There was never going to be a time when Tylor stood a chance against him. Fiona couldn't believe that Mark didn't even notice anything during their conversation!
