Strongest Superhuman System

The long limousine arrived at the front of the tall skyscraper that served as the Vanitas Company Headquarters in America. The building had the symbol of the Vanitas Family, a large silver V with golden wings circling it like an angel and most of the building exterior was made from glass.

It was located in City C, so it took quite some time for them to arrive, but Mark could see that there was a long line of staff members standing on either side of a long red carpet in front of the building and waiting for him before he even arrived. They were all standing with their hands at their sides, and as Mark stepped out of the car, they bowed to him reverently.

Mark eyed the long line of people, and he could see some of them shifting nervously. Anyone else would have failed to notice these small movements, but Mark noticed how some of the staff were shuffling and clenching their fists gently due to his enhanced senses. They were tense. Were they nervous about meeting him, or did it have something to do with what happened with the killer?

Mark ignored them after some time and looked down the line at the entrance of the building. Hugo was standing there with a man and a woman standing to either side of him. Hugo was smiling widely as he waited for Mark, and Mark couldn't stop his own smile from spreading as he walked down the line to meet his godfather.

"Mark, you're even taller than the last time I met you."

Hugo spread his arms wide and hugged Mark happily as Mark approached him. Mark accepted the hug and patted Hugo on the back gently.

"Godfather, it's been a while. I thought I told you not to take things too far. I won't be staying for long; is all this really necessary?"

"Of course, it is. They are watching, so we have to let them know who is in charge here."

Hugo glanced up to the left, and Mark also glanced in that direction at a certain window in the skyscraper. There was a man standing at the window with his hands behind his back, gazing straight at Mark with a narrowed glare. Mark held the man's stare for a few moments before he finally turned back to Hugo.

That man was one of the shareholders of the company and the person who was the most vocal about not wanting Mark to take over the company. He was known as Dante Sinclair, and after Mark, he was the highest shareholder in the company.

That was the same man that Mark read about in the company files earlier. Mark already figured that Sinclair was someone he needed to take care of and now Hugo was just confirming it for him.

Mark spoke up while turning to Hugo.

"Let's get started."

Hugo nodded as he introduced the people who were with him. The man on Hugo's left was Hugo's personal secretary, who was in charge of handling all the political tasks that Hugo himself was not able to carry out.

Hugo was an old man, so he was not able to be everywhere he needed to be, and the man was in charge of standing in for Hugo whenever there was something that really needed his attention and he could not go. His name was Ryan, and he was the man that Hugo trusted the most out of everyone in the company.

Mark nodded to Ryan, and Ryan gave Mark a respectful nod in return.

Hugo then introduced the other person there. She was a woman wearing a black trouser suit, and she had her hair cut into a short bob. Just from the aura alone that she was releasing while standing there, Mark could already tell that this woman was a superhuman. He was able to sense it the moment he laid eyes on her, and from his deduction, he knew that she was probably an A or B rank.

…

Name: Joy Frida

Race: Human

Title: Weapons Mistress

Rank: A

Potential: A

Description: A superhuman blessed by the goddess of darkness Nyx, she is capable of erasing her presence and moving through the shadows, making her the perfect assassin. She has mastered more than twenty different types of weapons and is proficient in ten forms of hand-to-hand combat. She is currently working as the main bodyguard for the acting CEO of Vanitas Motors, Hugo.

Affiliation: Lawful Neutral

…

Mark was internally surprised as he saw Frida's tab through True Sight, and he listened half-heartedly as Hugo went ahead to introduce Frida.

"This here is Joy, she is the head of my guards. I don't go anywhere without her there to take care of anything dangerous, and she has been a great help, especially during uneventful negotiations."

The world of business and politics were always intersecting, and there were a lot of dangerous people in both of these worlds who would do anything for their own gain. There have been many attempts on Hugo's life by those who wished to take the Vanitas Company for themselves, but Frida was able to handle all of those and protect Hugo's life, so Hugo owed her a huge debt.

Mark gave Frida a nod as well, but he noticed that Frida hesitated for a moment before nodding back at him. Her expression was extremely stoic, but there was something in her eyes that told Mark that they would not be able to get along. Was she one of the people who didn't approve of his actions against the killer?

Frida stared at Mark, and she couldn't help but tighten her hand unconsciously as she tried her best to keep her cool. Mark was actually wrong about Frida not being in support of what he had done against the killer before. Frida didn't care that Mark killed someone. She didn't even give a damn since she knew that the superhuman killer was a criminal.

In fact, Frida understood that Mark had to kill that killer, and if she was in his position, she would have done the exact same thing against that killer since she had been a bodyguard all her life. The reason why Frida was uncomfortable around Mark was actually because of his aura.

Frida did not know if it was just an extra part of her blessing that she did not know how to control, but ever since she got her blessing, she could always read a person's strength level by simply looking at them. This is something that has proved very useful for her in the political world.

She could tell if someone was bluffing their strength or if her client was really in trouble by simply glancing at her opponent. But there was no way that her eyes were telling her the truth right now. What the hell could have this much power?

Boom!

Mark's power was phenomenal! It was like an endless storm of darkness and death was surrounding him at all times and warning her of her demise if she dared to go against him! It took all of her willpower to just stand there and not react when Mark came close to her.
