Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 167: Just As Planned



Chapter 167: Just As Planned

Esmeralda? Why does Mark want to know anything about Esmeralda?

Maria was surprised by the request. She thought about who Esmeralda was and she remembered that Esmeralda was the daughter of the Fortuna Entertainment company, another big name in the city. Esmeralda was very beautiful, but also quite conceited. She was the sort of person that people would describe as a spoiled brat without a second thought. Why would Mark want to know about her?

Maria asked Mark for the reason behind his curiosity, and Mark waved her away as he turned with Arit and started to walk away.

"Don't ask stupid questions and just do as you're told. I'll be expecting something soon."

Maria frowned in annoyance when Mark insulted her, but she couldn't say anything back. She was trying to get on Mark's good side and she couldn't afford to antagonize him any more than she already had! So she could only stay silent and take the insult!

Vroom!

The sound of a car approaching them reached Maria, and she saw a black Vanitas Avatendor coming towards Mark and Arit. A man in a black outfit stepped out and bowed to Mark before handing him the key. Mark thanked him and gave him a few instructions on how to take care of his bike before allowing the man to leave.

Mark then opened the door for Arit before going over to enter the car and drive off.

Maria knew that her mother would be angry at hr again because she was not able to get the meeting with Mark, but she was just glad that she was no longer in his bad books. That would have been a disaster for her family.

"But I wonder why he is interested in Esmeralda."

It wasn't too hard for Maria to find out what Esmeralda does during the day since Esmeralda had way too many friends. It would be easy to just get a little bit of information from all of them and combine it together to see what was the truth. And since she was a part of the student committee, she could use her power to make people tell her what she wanted.

Maria blinked as the word 'power' passed through her mind, and she immediately felt her thoughts travel back to earlier today when she caught Arit and Mark in the cupboard and what she did after Mark threatened her. Maria's face grew hotter, and she quickly covered it with a hand as she made her way back into the school.

...

"It failed."

The superhuman killer was currently on the phone as he walked through the park where Mark and Arit usually went with Talia. He was wearing a long black coat, a white shirt over black trousers, and running shoes as he looked around at all the people who were enjoying their time with their families.

The superhuman killer knew that Mark would not be coming to the park today, so he just felt like taking a walk here by himself. After watching Mark Vanitas and his family spend so much time in this park and have so much fun together, the killer started to feel a small amount of jealousy somewhere in his heart, and he decided that he also wanted to come and see what this park was all about.

Even though the superhuman killer was still in the business of taking lives, he left the army because he wanted to live a normal life! He also wanted a woman to love and a child to take care of! Everything that Mark had was everything he wanted and more and th superhuman killer just wanted to taste a tiny bit of it!

There were so many families moving around and having fun, and the killer knew that this sort of life was something that he could never live. His life was meant for bloodshed and death.But every now and then, even someone as twisted as he was still wanted to enjoy the serenity of a family park.

The person on the other end of the phone grunted in irritation as he heard what the superhuman killer said, and when he spoke up, the superhuman killer could literally hear the annoyance in his voice.

[Yes, just like you planned. I hope you are aware that you will be compensating me for the assets lost. Sending those things out is not cheap, and sending them out in the middle of the city is even more expensive.]

"I understand. You will get a wire soon, just wait. But for now, I need you to send another one out, and I also need you to retract all the superhumans in the area at the same time."

The superhuman killer took a seat on an empty bench on one side of the park and he pulled out a bag of seeds from his pocket and began to throw them towards the many birds that were flocking the bench. His gaze was fixated on the birds and how they were pecking away at the seeds, and for a moment he thought about what it would be like to be a bird.

No stress, no complexities. Just living your life, flying anywhere you wish at any time you wish.

Free.

"I'll also need the guild schedules."

The superhuman killer continued after some time, and the man on the other end of the call squeezed his face in irritation as he heard the request.

[Do you think this is your fucking military organization? It is not so easy to extract teams from an area without raising unneeded suspicions and causing investigators to start breathing down your neck, and the guild schedules are classified. You cannot get them.]

"I need them. Without them, I can't be sure of how the superhumans will move."

[You will have to make do somehow. I cannot give them to you.]

The superhuman killer furrowed his brow in anger as he heard this, and he threw a new batch of seeds towards the birds and watched them pecking away without a care in the world. How enviable.

"Then open a backlink to their radio and give me access to that instead. I need to know how they are moving to make my plans. If I can finish this as quickly as possible, then I will be out of your hair, and we might not have to see each other for the next few years at least, that is a good enough reason to take the risk is it not?"

The man on the other end of the call was silent for some time as he thought about what the superhuman killer said. It would definitely be beneficial to get rid of the superhuman killer once and for all. If not for the fact that the superhuman killer was very useful right now, then he would have already tried to get rid of him. The superhuman killer was right.

It would be best to just get this over with.

[I'll open a secure link to the guilds that are present in the city currently, and you can frequency-hop across the connections to get the one you wish for. But that is all I can do for you. How many anima do you need this time?]

"Not too much. Just enough to draw him out. I was able to get rid of Luna using the last attack, so I don't need two. Just give me a strong one that would be enough to distract him for a few minutes. That should be enough."

The previous anima attack was nothing but a gamble by the killer in the hope that Luna will reveal herself and leave the city after talking to Mark! And the killer was glad that his gamble worked! Even though it would cost a lot, it was worth it as far as he was concerned!

But with the way things are going, he is definitely going to ask for more money for this job! The amount that he and the Coltons agreed on was not going to cut it anymore! not only was mark stronger than before, but Mark was also surrounded by some dangerous people that the killer could not overlook! This job was starting to be more trouble than it was worth!
