Strongest Superhuman System

"You just better not lose."

Merlin chuckled somewhere deep in his throat when he heard the reluctant acceptance in Morgana\'s voice.

"Darling, have you ever known me to lose?"

Morgana smiled in a twisted way.

"You lost to me, idiot."

"That one time was a fluke and you know it. You fucking poisoned me!"

"Excuses, excuses."

Merlin just frowned as he heard the smile in Morgana\'s voice, but he just ignored her since nothing he said here would get through to her. He poured out his magic as magic circles began to form in the sky, bending magic to his will.

Shiink! Shiink! Shiink! Shiink!

The entire sky was painted an iridescent blue and Mark quickly activated his True Sight to get a look at what he was up against.

...

Mark narrowed his eyes and took in a deep breath as his mind ran at a mile a minute trying to figure out how to handle this. This was getting way out of hand! Merlin and Morgana!? They were practically legends back on Earth and the system put the two of them on the same team for him to fight against? What sort of bullshit is this!?

Mark knew that it would be impossible for him to beat Merlin in a straight fight right now. Merlin was always known to possess a large amount of magic, so Merlin could probably spam these spells over and over again like a fucking video game character! Mark wouldn\'t be surprised if Merlin had ten thousand points of mana or even more!

If he tried to fight Merlin straight-out in these sorts of conditions, then there was no doubt that Mark was definitely going to lose. He had to level the playing field. Mark thought about a way to do that, and his eyes lit up as he realized that there was a way!

He needed to get Luna somewhere safe first. No, he couldn\'t do that. They don\'t have a territory yet, so it would be dangerous for him to just drop her off anywhere and hope that no other participant finds her. He would have to bring her along with him.

Luna started to tap Mark\'s chest in distress as she saw the magic circles that were forming in the sky.

"We need to move! We need to move now!"

What? Mark looked down at Luna in surprise as he saw the distress on her face. What was wrong?

"I recognize that spell! It\'s an ice spell! He\'s going to freeze everything!"

Fuck! First fire, and now ice? Isn\'t there a limit to the kind of magic that he can use? Mark immediately shouted to Luna while turning around and crouching into a runner\'s stance.

"I\'m going to need you to hold on very tightly! Don\'t let go no matter what, do you understand!?"

Luna tightened her hold around Mark\'s neck and buried her face into his collar, and Mark\'s feet dug into the ground as the muscles on his legs tensed to breaking limit! His eyes glowed a deep black and narrowed into a glare as he launched himself off the building!

BOOOM!

Mark dashed off the top of the building in a flash of black and a large crack tore the building in half just from the force of his movement as he dashed across the city! Luna gasped in shock as she felt all the air leave her lungs at once! The city lights were blurring past her in an unrecognizable flash and she could almost feel the wind slicing her skin from how fast they were going!

Luna was not a superhuman whose strength was focused on physical abilities. Even though she was regarded as an undefined and seen as one of the strongest superhumans in America, that was only because of how powerful her blessing was and how good she was at using it.

In terms of physical strength, Luna was only as strong as a High-Ranking Calamity Class Anima and she might even lose out against high-level S ranks if they fought without the use of magic.

Twoom!!

Mark broke through the sound barrier and used his hand to protect Luna\'s head and make sure that the aftershock didn\'t affect her.

This was the first time that Luna was experiencing such high speeds in her life! She had never had to go this fast since she was a ranged fighter who mostly stayed in one place and destroyed enemies at a distance, so it was almost surreal to know that there were superhumans out there that could actually move as fast as Mark was moving with nothing but their physical power alone!

What the hell was this unreal speed? It almost felt like they were flying!

Mark dashed over a building and his body flew towards the next one! The next building was too high and Mark was going too fast for him to try and get over it, so he simply tucked himself in and tightened his hold on Luna to make sure that she wouldn\'t be hurt by the impact before they smashed into the building window!

Crash!

Mark turned to his side and stretched out his hand as protection for Luna as he broke through three walls before smashing through the other side of the building and continuing on his way! But even after they had gone far enough that the two attackers were only a speck on the horizon, they could still hear a calm voice speak up as a large magic circle filled the sky.

"Gelu Nova." (A/N: Frost Nova)

Chiink!

A loud sound like ice breaking echoed through the area before the ice suddenly began to spread at an astounding pace! It covered everything that it touched! From people to buildings and even the very air itself was frozen stiff from Merlin\'s chant!
