Chapter 11: Viral Sonar

{Shiro's POV}

Now, on my way to school, I started climbing onto a rooftop to get a better view of where I am going. Then I began running, jumping, and doing acrobatic stunts across every rooftop. Queens is truly the perfect place for parkour.

"I wonder what Gwen Stacy looks like in person. I'm pretty sure she wasn't bitten by a radioactive spider in this world, right?" I murmured as I made my way towards the school. Suddenly, the surrounding environment turned monochromatic and took on an orange tint, and my body emitted a pulsating energy field that spread to the surrounding area. Another pulsating energy field emanated from the direction of my school.

"Is this Viral Sonar?" I questioned aloud.

"[Master, it is indeed Viral Sonar]," Ciel confirmed in a robotic tone.

"[The Hunting Pulse has been deployed, targeting the designated individual. This pulse possesses the capability to penetrate various obstacles, including walls and structures]," Ciel elaborated.

"Thank you, Ciel. Viral Sonar is a very useful ability for tracking and hunting down enemies. This time, though, I wasn't tracking and hunting down enemies; I consciously thought of Gwen," I said while standing on the rooftop of what appeared to be an apartment building.

"Let's use it again. Hehe," I murmured, my expression filled with excitement.

The surrounding environment turned monochromatic and took on an orange tint once again. Then, sonar waves penetrated the environment, allowing me to locate Gwen with precision.

"Now, with this ability and Ciel's tracking ability, I can quickly hunt my target in the future," I said as I started parkouring again from building to building and gliding whenever the distance between buildings was too far for me to jump.

Arriving at a building near my school, I used Viral Sonar again, but this time with a sense of killing intent towards Peter. I wanted to test if he would also be able to sense it with his spider tingle. A hunting pulse was sent into the surrounding environment, and suddenly, a vibrant red and black hue with a human shape inside the building became visible to my vision.

{Peter's POV}

I made my way toward the classroom, where I saw Ned playing on his phone. "Hey dude!" I called out to him as I sat at a desk near his.

Suddenly, my hair stood up, and my heightened senses detected danger.

"Oh, hey dude! What's with your face?" Ned replied.

"Ned, I sense something dangerous. I gotta check it out for now," I whispered to Ned as I made my way out to where I sensed the danger.

"Really?" Ned said, disbelief evident on his face.

{Shiro's POV}

It seems like he didn't sense my Viral Sonar, but rather, he sensed my killing intent. Well, I have to go to school now. I jumped into an alley, devoid of people, and started running like a regular human. Arriving in the hallway, most students looked at me with different expressions. Flash, in particular, wore a surprised expression.

"I thought you were dead, Nerd," Flash told me.

"Well, as you can see, I'm still alive," I said to him with indifference.

"You went missing for 5 days, and suddenly you've gained muscles and height. Did you undergo surgery to become handsome?" Flash mockingly remarked.

"No, it's just purely workout. Now, get out of my sight," I said, looking at him with contempt.

"Give it up, Nerd. Gwen won't like you, and I'll be her partner in the Homecoming," Flash blurted out.

"So?" I replied, looking at him with killing intent. This made Flash step back a little, and sweat formed on his forehead. "Nerd, you'll see it in the Homecoming," he said, walking away. At the same time, I saw Peter running, making his way towards the area where he sensed the same killing intent earlier.

"Oh hey dude!" I called out to him.

"Uh, hey dude, you're finally here. Good to see you back in School, Shiro," he replied.

"Yeah, thanks. By the way, where are you going, and what's with your expression? It's like you have something on your mind," I asked him, even though I already knew the reason. Peter pulled me towards an empty classroom and whispered something to me. "I sense something, dude. My spider tingle sensed something dangerous."

"Look, Peter, nothing bad is going on here, and I think we should head to the classroom now. The class is about to start," I said, trying to convince him that nothing was wrong.

"Yeah, you're right, I guess," Peter replied, still looking outside of the building.

Walking through the hallway, I heard a lot of gossip about me.

"Hey, isn't that one of the losers?" one student whispered to his friend, while looking at my figure.

"Yeah, it's him," his friend replied.

"I heard he underwent surgery on his face for the Homecoming," another student murmured, interrupting the two students who were gossiping about me.

"God, he's so handsome now, and his body is more toned and attractive," one girl said, looking thirsty at my entire body. God, I hate this.

"Uhmm, hey!" that girl called out to me.

"Do you already have a partner for the Homecoming? If none, please be my partner," she told me.

"Uhh, sorry," I replied when I suddenly got interrupted by Peter. "Yeah, he already has someone in mind."

"Uh, yeah," is the only word I could reply.

Arriving at our class, almost everyone was there, including Ned, Gwen, MJ, Flash, and who is that?

Now, this is clearly a different Marvel Universe. What about Norman Osborn, Ciel? I asked Ciel in my thoughts as I made my way towards my desk near Gwen's desk.

Additionally, he has a deep understanding of scientific principles and has made significant contributions to various fields through his research and development efforts at Oscorp.]

Would you look at that, Norman Osborn in this world looks like Willem Dafoe. What's with this universe? Green Goblin's appearance in this world would be inevitable. Green Goblin is the enemy I didn't want to consume. Its serum would provide me with greater strength, but I didn't want to go crazy. I can obtain its strength, not by consuming it, but if I can acquire the serum, study it, and I hope that I would be able to eliminate its faulty effects.

Suddenly, I heard a captivating voice of a girl beside me. "Welcome back," Gwen said as she smiled at me. Oh yeah, it's Gwen. She really resembles the Gwen from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and God she's beautiful.

"Yeah, thanks. I just went on a vacation and did some workouts. Haha," I awkwardly replied to her.

"Workout, huh? That's suspicious considering that your body changed a lot within 6 days," Gwen said as she looked at me, peering into my very soul.

"Uhh... yeah, it's also puberty," I said to her.

"You're lying. I can sense it. Whatever happened to you, I won't delve into it," Gwen replied, looking at me with doubt.

I know I don't get tired, but why am I sweating at her replies? Her stares are pretty intimidating, but hmm... I like it. "Umm... okay, thanks, Gwen," I replied to her while smiling. Then Ned elbowed my arm and whispered, "Dude, tell me later if it would be successful. Also, I'm always here if anything goes wrong." Ned looked at me, and both of his eyebrows raised in a split second. "Dude, stop it. Focus on the class," I told Ned, trying to stop his antics. "Okay, good luck, dude," Ned replied.

I began to contemplate again. In the next few days, Peter would fight Vulture, and when that happens, I will absorb Phineas Mason to gain his intellect regarding robotics and alien technologies. I would also steal all of their technologies.

Suddenly, the professor called out my name, "Shiro," the professor said, pointing at me. "Ah, yes?" I replied.

"You've been absent for 5 days. You know what that means, right? Go to the principal's office later after my class." Ugh... I hate this school life. "Ookay," I just replied with a sigh.
