Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 249: The First Servant

Luna glared at Mark.

"Don't be stupid and stop making fun of me. Do you have anything I can change into? I need to change out of these clothes."

Mark shrugged.

"We can steal something from the residents. One sec. I'll head out and come back in a few seconds."

Luna immediately put her hands up as she noticed Mark getting up to head out.

"No, no, that isn't necessary! You don't need to leave!"

Mark was stunned by her immediate refusal. Was she not the one that wanted to change just a moment ago? It wouldn't even take thirty seconds for him to head out and find something that she could wear.

Luna shook her head when Mark tried to leave again, and this time she took a step towards him with a deep, intense look in her eyes. She held him by the hand firmly.

"Please... Just, don't go. I-I think it's best we stay together. They might attack me if you leave and that will be the end of the game. I don't mind wearing the outfit for a while until we can find a territory to stay in."

Luna's explanation was sound, but it was not enough reason for her to try and stop Mark as intensely as she was. The system never brought up the prompt saying that Luna was lying, so Mark knew that she was telling the truth about why she did not want him to go. But Mark also knew that there was a lot more that Luna was not telling him about why she did not want him to leave.

But he just decided that he would stay since she was happy enough staying in the bunny outfit.

"Alright, if you're okay with it, we can just –"

Mark suddenly stopped what he had been saying and Luna looked at him in surprise as she saw his brow furrow. Mark was staring at something in front of him with intensity and in the next moment, Luna shrieked as Mark dashed towards her and grabbed her in a princess carry!

"Hold on!"

Mark dashed towards the other side of the building and flew out from a hole that was there, and Luna wrapped her hand around Mark's neck tightly and held on like he said as she wondered what the hell was going on! Were they under attack? Is there someone out there?

Shiink!

All of a sudden Luna's eyes widened as she saw the entire sky above the house turn into a golden yellow as a massive magic circle the size of a football field appeared over it! Mark didn't even bother turning around to take a look at the magic circle since he already knew it was up there! Mark just focused on getting as far away from this place as possible with Luna!

The magic circle in the sky shone a bright golden hue and Luna couldn't stop staring at it in shock as she wondered who could make something like this. Luna was also a magic user and she was used to creating some magic circles when using her magic, but this was beyond anything Luna had ever seen before. The intricacy. The depth of the magic. The amount of mana inside of it.

It almost felt like watching a master at work.

"Explosio Arcanum." (A/N: Arcane Blast)

Doon!

Suddenly, the spell caster's voice echoed through the region and a wave of magic burst out from their body before a large fireball the size of a building dropped from the magic circle in the air and filled Luna's vision with gold as she watched it falling towards the ground!

The building that Mark and Luna were staying in was surrounded by many other residential buildings; there were family houses as well as some roads and offices around the building.

"Hey, what the hell is that? Is that fire!?"

"It's a fucking ball of fire! Is this the apocalypse!?"

"Mom, look! It's a giant ball of fire!"

"Come back here, baby! We need to run!"

People all over were shouting and screaming as they saw the fireball and many of them tried to run away to avoid it. But the person that cast the spell didn't even care about any of that as the fireball slammed into them all and destroyed an area that was equivalent to a football pitch, killing everyone around and sending them off to the underworld!

BOOM!!!

Luna closed her eyes and buried her face in Mark's shoulder to avoid the extreme heat that rose from that explosion. She wished she could drown out the sound of the people screaming and shouting in fear as they were burnt alive by the giant fireball.

Mark suddenly stopped on top of a skyscraper a few kilometers away and turned around to face whoever was responsible for the explosion. On the other side of the city, standing on a large signal tower, a man in a long robe was carrying a stick that reminded Mark too much of a magic staff.

He had a smile on his face and he seemed jovial and relaxed even though his magic was still burning hundreds of people right below him.

The man had white hair with red streaks in different areas and he looked to be about the same age as Luna. Beside him stood a woman who was openly glaring at everything around her. Her hair was black, her clothes were black and she had black eyes. But her figure was absolutely breathtaking with wide hips and a large bust that rivaled even Arit's breast size.

Her hands were folded across her chest and Mark could immediately tell that this woman was the man's master. But who are they? Are they from a different world? I know I haven't seen anyone dressed like that on Earth before.

"Wiik! Wiik!"

The wiik-bat suddenly came back to Mark and Mark reached out mentally and thanked the bat for its warning. It was the wiik-bat that first noticed the magic in the air and sent a warning straight to Mark that there was another servant in the area and that was the only reason why Mark was able to get out of there as quickly as he did.

On the other side, the man and woman that had attacked Mark were talking casually between themselves.

"I told you that I wanted to be the servant, didn't I, Merlin?"

The woman frowned at the man in annoyance and the man just hummed a jovial tune while tilting his head from side to side.

"Don't be such a stickler. The gods choose who will be the servants based on achievements. Perhaps if you had done more in your life rather than just lazing around."

The woman growled in anger when she heard him say that and the man just smiled wider and continued.

"Come now, Morgana. Don't be angry over something this small. You're my master and you possess some power over me. Isn't that what you've always wanted? We've been doing long enough for me to know that much."
