Their faces were hilarious. "Now you guys finally know my identity."

*Drip* *Drop* *Drip* *Drop*
A beaker can leak water because of two reasons.
One, it has a crack somewhere on its surface, or two… someone overfilled it.
In my case, it was the l...

Chapter 47: Hellfire Club... GET!!
I know that I am breaking every single rule in the book of a successful villain... but as long as you have the sides covered, a little leniency is alright.

Chapter 45: Mavros
"You played me?" The grin on my face was my answer to her question.
Messing with such strong beings is one of the most idiotic things a person could do. But I did just that. Why?
"You truly are impressive, Marcellus. You forced yourself to believe ...
Chapter 44: Time or Space?
The pros and cons of accepting her offer were running inside my head.
The pros were protection from the other cosmic beings, probably some additional benefits, and being on the good side of Infinity.

Chapter 42: The Murder
"So where are we going to look for my father?"

Chapter 40: Awakening
"You know what?" Damn this guy is cute. "Maybe you are right. I should take this little one home."

"People change, Peggy. Emotions, interests, likes, dislikeâ€...
Chapter 39: That's not a Kitten...
[[Marcellus]]
"Jeremiah, any lead so far?" The man shook his head.
The Savage Lands are far more difficult to find than I thought. I can find Wakanda easier than the Savage Lands, but even if I do find Wakanda, I won't be able ...

James was not very good at waiting. And this Jester guy made him sit in a single position for over two hours.

Chapter 36: Rules of the Table
"Don't mess with dogs? That's the first rule?" Deadpool had to butt in. Well, the rule does sound absurd… so it's not his fault. "What's next pal? Don't mess with bitches?"
I shook my head. "No, the next rule is kind of serious." I look at...
Chapter 35: The High Table
"Ladies and Gentlemen, let me present to you… the 'High Table'." I said, showcasing a large gold coin.

Chapter 34: Let Me Present
"This book is so stupid." I raised my eyebrows at that.
"Huh?"
"Romeo and Juliet… It's so stupid." Howard rolled his eyes after reading the first few pages of the book.

Chapter 32: "Death is the only time when something can be considered too late."
[[Marcellus]]
All of them are at least mid-beta level… if not peak. Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't have fought them.
But now, I have my ways.

Chapter 29: Powers of the Wolverine
"Are you sure that you are prepared for this?" Sinister asked before picking up the diary that I gave him. "If your estimates are correct, then after injecting the serum in your body… the X-genes in your body should start adjusting themselves to extra...
Chapter 28: A Day Off
"So… You are not going?" Recently, my mother has been way too busy with her work… which I find worrisome.
