Isekai into Marvel/DC

Chapter 142 High five!

A knife flew at me as an explosion went off. It was only me, Kitty, and Orca left, everyone else was dead. I slapped Orca on the ass before shouting. “High five!” Her body began to expand as she grabbed the giant robot by its leg and tripped it. Kitty ran over and ripped out important components in the robot's head while another began to aim at us. I grabbed Orca by her waist and flung her out of the way before I was disintegrated.

Orca kept trying to pull off the grapple technique again but the robot avoided her as it kept lifting its feet before she reached it. Kitty climbed through the inside of the robot but before she could finish it off another disintegration beam came down on Orca as it sacrificed her grabbling it to line up the perfect shot. The red lights flashed as we all were brought out of the danger room.

Kitty just sighed as she spoke dejectedly. “Good job everyone.” Scott shouted. “Yea, except for Rose! Why does she run off and get herself killed every time? It’s like she’s intentionally trying to die.” She sheathed her swords before responding. “I just keep getting unlucky. The deactivation button is clearly the right choice for winning the war scenario.”

He yelled again, voice cracking. “That’s not the point of the exercise. The exercise is to work together!” His body shook as someone went against the rules, even in this universe he’s a boy scout. I could finish the scenario in a quarter of a second by myself if I went all out but I was keeping myself at low superhuman and only using my mutant powers. It was getting me a lot of brownie points with the ladies because I could keep ‘sacrificing’ myself to give them a chance.

As I made my way through protecting a different girl every attempt someone else noticed. “Well, if Loverboy over there boosted me first, then we’d only be in the scenario for a few seconds.” Rose spoke with disdain. I just smirk at her before speaking. “I agree with Scott. If we were trying to deactivate the event then we could just have our speedster run for the button right off the bat.”

She casually tossed a knife at me but it was at a speed I had to use enhanced senses to catch without hurting myself. “Oh, princess. I know your daddy got you that better super drug but where do you think he got it from? You keep acting up I’ll make you base human again.” She smirked like she won the argument. I sure hope she knows I wasn’t playing.

 I respected Slade enough to give her a few chances but if she really keeps being so combative I’ll put her in her place one way or another. We did make it out of Alpha and made it to rank three of Beta but we were stuck at that danger level. We still had Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, and Omega. I could probably make it to rank two or three of Omega if I went all out but it was designed to keep getting harder once you reached the Omega levels.

Our teamwork was worse than shit though. As much as slapping everyone to finish the event would work, it would work once or twice a day then we’d be fucked if anything else happened. That or I’d have to try more than the bare minimum which I refused to do. If the test didn’t end until everyone died we’d already have finished but it ends if only Kitty was left alive. She was hard enough to kill to get a special rating like Wolverine.

If they’re the last alive the mission would be deemed a failure. Scott was already growing addicted to my helping hand. He asked again. “Why can’t you just keep boosting me? It’s obviously the most effective strategy.” I tell him again. “Because my power is addictive. You’ve asked me to use my powers on you eight times since the first two today. You can’t get used to having me around or you’ll cripple your growth.” The girls all ate some snacks before we got back in there for our final attempt of the day. I sigh and say. “Alright, the final attempt of the day so might as well activate it for everyone… Except Scott since he’s been boosted twice already.”

His arms fell to his sides as I hoped he knew I was right. A knife flew passed my head as I started slapping everyone. “High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five! High five!” Scott yelled out. “High five!” And I knew what he was trying to do… Son of a bitch he played me at my own game. I’m not just gonna leave him hanging, but he’ll only get a small boost.

The ten giant robots were torn down before I really even understood what was happening to them. Rose managed to cleave one robot's leg off then rushed towards its head cutting it off. Another one just fell over with no indication of what happened to it as Karma held two fingers to her head. Moonstar made a giant bow and blew a head off as she took aim at another but Orca jumped into the air, mad about how close we came during the last test.

Sunspot launched an energy blast twice as large as before but I could tell the beam was far more concentrated. It melted the robot in half in a few seconds of the concentrated beam. One of the robots tripped and fell into another. As it went to get back up it had leaked a tiny amount of oil that made it slip back down. Halo flew behind a robot and concussive blasted it off its feet as well.

Another was cut in half by a giant magic sword while one of the downed ones was struck with concentrated lightning enough to turn the metal into slag. Several large water spears stuck another while a girl flung herself at another slamming into it after changing into a giant spike and piercing through it. This all happened in a few seconds as I watched Scott remove his glasses and give everyone a nice tan.

No one was uber-powerful like Scott was from my power boost. I think it was more like they didn’t think through how much stronger they all were. Orca ran like a normal person with the last power but this time she was flinging herself around like a giant wrecking ball making her far, far more effective. Most people have an instinctive limiter on their own power, except for Scott who instinctively wanted his mutation to be stronger.

A knife flew at me as we only had to clean up the ground troops now. I sighed as it was the most tedious part. Now that we took care of all the robots it was cleaning up the hundred and ninety small ones.

We had downtime and I just walked around and checked the food in the kitchens. Hundreds of students meant dozens of fridges and a cold storage room. The fridges looked alright, there were some things in the wrong places but it wasn’t bothering me too much. I worked my way around the mansion as I focused on learning where everything was.

The showers were communal which wasn’t great, I was glad I could teleport, I wouldn’t want to make anyone suicidal when they compared themselves to me. I was looking for two particular women and I finally found one. I had to hide my intake of breath when I saw what she was wearing. Storm was dressed in a white sweater, her hair pulled back into a ponytail, and she wore a pair of glasses. She wore a black pencil skirt and white heels. I could only smile as I approached her, thinking about what to say.
