Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 23: Showdown

All Mark knew was that Tilda and Lightening Rider would be able to do a lot more for the other Superhumans who were struggling against the Disaster Classes!

Mark explained this to both of them, and the two Superhumans looked at each other as they saw the sense in what he said. It was true that the Calamity Class was only focusing on Mark, and it completely ignored them even when it had a chance to attack. There would be a lot more to gain by them leaving the fight to Mark and then going to help the other Superhumans to fight against the Disaster Classes.

Lightning Rider heard all of this and accepted that it was right, but he was still against just leaving Mark here on his own. Lightning Rider was someone who always wanted to do what was right, and he knew that the right thing to do right now was to help Mark fight against this Calamity Class.

Lightning Rider opened his mouth to say this to Mark, but Tilda beat him to the punch as she easily agreed with what Mark said. Lightning Rider turned to her in shock, and she quickly explained her reasoning.

"There are too many disaster classes, and the reinforcements are already on their way. We can prevent more deaths by helping the other Superhumans while GHOST holds his own against the Calamity class. Even if we stay here, then the Calamity class will only ignore us and we will be useless. If GHOST thinks he can hold it back, then there is no need to stop him. When the reinforcements come, then they can come to finish off the fight."

Both Mark and Lightning Rider understood what Tilda was saying. Tilda was not trying to put Mark in front of the Calamity Class while hoping that Mark would win. She was only telling Mark to hold the Calamity Class back for a few more minutes so that the reinforcements could arrive.

But Mark really didn't have any intention of doing something like that! Mark was going to kill this monster before the reinforcements arrived! His status rewards depended on it! Mark didn't know if he would get the rewards if he got help from others, but he would rather not risk it.

[If the user is aided in completing the mission, then all rewards will be forfeited and the punishment for failure will be passed instead.]

Well, that answers that question. Mark had no intention of losing any of his stat points, so there was no way he would allow anyone to help him in completing this mission!

Lightning Rider was still looking like he wanted to argue about the decision they just made, but after a few moments, he finally grunted as he reluctantly agreed to it. He rolled his staff around as lightning began to converge around him.

"Don't die, kid."

This was all he said before he and Tilda dashed away from the scene in flashes of yellow and lightning blue to go and help out the other Superhumans! Mark just chuckled at what Lightning Rider said! Die!? Who said anything about dying!? That was never even an option against a monster like this! Mark turned back to the Calamity Class that finally pulled itself from the building, and Mark allowed his face to split into a sadistic grin as he spread his arms wide!

"Come to Daddy, bitch!"

SCRREEEECH!!

Ka-Boom!!!

A massive shockwave erupted across the entire battlefield as the Anima shot forward, and Mark just stood still as the Anima drew its hand back and sent a punch straight at Mark's face.

Slam!

Mark brought his hand forward and braced his feet as he caught the punch in one hand! The ground under his feet cracked and splintered, but he didn't move an inch as he received the full force of the Anima's hit! Mark was able to hold his own against the Ant-head Anima even when he didn't have a system! He got the beating of his life, but at least he didn't die!

Now that Mark had his system that granted him a strong constitution as well as the Mana that was flowing through his body, his strength was boosted to a much higher point than before! It was as if Mark was a completely different person!

Mark felt a manic laugh bubble out from inside his body as he pulled the anima towards hit! Was this all it had!? This was what Mark thought he would die for!? Mark realized at that moment that Sozin was right! This motherfucking bastard was so weak!

BAM! BAM! BAM!

Mark held on tight to the Anima's fist, and three massive dents appeared in the Anima's armor as Mark sent three punches straight at its stomach! The wind around the area distorted as massive shockwaves flew out from the Anima's body, and it spat out a wad of red blood in pain!

SCREECH!!

"Don't go dying on me just yet!!"

Slam!

Mark threw the Anima into the air and performed a twist before he kicked it back into the building that they had been fighting in! Mark shot off the ground and followed it into the building to continue the fight!

The anima screeched as it forced itself to stop flying! It formed claws with its two hands and it slashed them across the air in Mark's direction! The slashes formed pressurized air that easily cut through the columns of the building before the wind slashed straight for Mark!

Crumble!

The broken columns weakened the structural integrity of the house and before long, the entire building was coming down on them! but neither of them gave a fuck about that as they were more focused on the fight in front of them!

Mark ducked low and grabbed one of the metal pipes that had been lying around on the floor! He slid to a stop right beside the Anima and he slammed the pipe like a bat into the Anima's head faster than the Anima could turn!

SLAM!

The Anima was sent flying from the force of the hit, and Mark didn't let up as he followed after it and sent another hit into its stomach, pushing it out from the window and sending it plummeting to the ground!

Crash!

The building was still falling as the two monsters fought and Mark was sure that anyone in the area would surely die from the falling building!! But Mark couldn't stop to think about that because this was more important! The Anima screeched as it saw Mark burst through the window as well to continue the onslaught! It was a relentless attack, and the Anima was desperately trying to understand what was going on!

It felt like it was missing something big! How did this human manage to gain this much power in that short time!? Was this normal!? No! It is not normal! All the superhumans that I have killed have never gained this much power during a fight! There has to be something that it was missing!

"Hahahahahaha!!!"

A manic laughter coming from above made the Anima's blood freeze! It saw Mark with his hand pulled back as he flew down towards it like a rocket! At that moment, the Anima couldn't see Mark! All it saw was a demon! A demon in human skin!

If that hits, then the Anima knew that this would be the end of it! It had to put all of its power into one last-ditch effort to try and win this fight! It will be a battle of their strongest attacks, and the Anima was going to go all out to win this no matter what!

SCREECH!

The Anima diverted all of its power to its arm, and the armored plates on its arm shifted and formed a glove that covered its right fist as the muscles on its right arm began to bulge and enlarge until they were twice their normal size!

The two Titans prepared their most powerful attack, and they met right in the middle in one last showdown!

Slam!

KA-BOOOOMM!

The effects of the hit could be felt in all directions for miles as massive wind pressure threatened to blow down houses and throw roofs off buildings! The news helicopter that had been following the action lost control, and it began to spin erratically as the driver tried his best to get it back under control!
