Chapter 10: Thoughts

The sun's soft golden rays shined on me taking a slight verdant green shade from the thin leaf curtain it was passing through.

I sat up and yawned and I got up and moved the curtain to the side.

The rising Sun's familiar rays filled me with power, I felt like I was getting drunken on it.

I smiled as I saw the animals sleeping with their cubs in their arms, it made a cute sight to see.

I pulled up my status screen

Now that was a surprise; Man of mysteries was only 50 percent active, I mused.

I thought back to what I said when I wished for it, I am have been using its function to conceal myself.

The only thing left is the ability to compress unnecessary muscles and make my own body, essentially a battlefield where only the best of the best are allowed. The rest of the muscles are tore apart and the nutrients used to sustain them will be used for the stronger muscles. This function allows me to train my body even when I am sleeping and it works best when I sleep.

I still curse my stupidity, if I didn't have my accidental superman powers I got from the entity, I would die in my sleep if I started the second function. My muscles would literally have no rest and in just half a day, I would have overdrafts on my stamina and it would start taking my life energy as supplement. Sure, I could turn it off anytime I want to; but not if I die in my sleep.

Well, that was a bullet dodged.

I shook my head on how many times I have nearly died due to my wishes and it makes me wonder if the entity could see the future, because each favor he has done me; has been very vital. If he didn't do them, forget omnipotence, I would have to worry on how to even live the first day.

I frowned because the threat of death is not affecting me as it should. In my last life I would shitting my pants in the fear of death, but now I am just numb to it. I guess that since I came to terms with death and was actually thankful to it in my last moments of my first life, I lost my fear of it. Also the fact that I have nothing in my name, in my past life; I spent a decades building and building and when I finally achieved my dream. It was taken from me.

This life, however I have accomplished nothing, I have no loved ones to protect; well maybe sister Mary, but she is safe. I have pretty much nothing too lose except a huge waste of potential. The fact that I have no one to care about right now will definitely change, I have no doubt about that. But currently, I have not a single iota of fear towards death.

I snapped out of my monologue and sat down on the grass to think about my training plan.

No mundane training will do me any benefits, I have the powers of a Kryptonian, so no matter how intense a human training regimen will be, I can do it with my eyes closed. Asgardian training will definitely be effective, but I have no way to contact them and I am not naive enough to believe that Odin will just handover a guide to asgardian training regimens to me, without wanting something in return.

But having both his son's favor will allow me some leverage. Also there is no need for me to wait until Thor gets stripped of his powers to get to Asgard , all I have to do is to be able to "coincidentally" be on one of the nine realms when Thor and his three buffoons are prancing around. I can then "conveniently" meet them and Thor being the idiot he is during this time period will suggest a sparring match, after which I will slowly destroy him.

But until then I need a plan to get to one of the nine realms, I will have to think of something. Using the space stone could work, but that's a very easy way to get one Nick Fury's radar. While I am confident he will not know it's me, but it will certainly turn up his paranoia to a whole level; which is something I really don't need right now.

Oh well, it's not like I am gonna go now or something. I will go after my ten year training though, maybe during the time gap of Iron man and Captain America waking up. I certainly want to make a good impression, although I am certain there is nothing they will be able to do to defeat me, I rather not just keep on making enemies with everyone.

One thing I have learned in my past long life is that connections are very important. It won't matter how much power I have because it will just increase the fear of me when I go public and I have no doubt that Hydra will start fanning the flames in the dark, let's not forget about Mr. Thunderfart Ross.

If I play my cards right, I can become a symbol of hope like the original Superman, but also have the connections and wealth to make me truly untouchable.

I laugh Diabolically, which only looked like a ten year old laughing cutely in a spectator's point of view.

Anyways, since I currently have no way to have a proper way to exercise, I will focus on control and martial arts.

I get into a standard horse stance and I started doing left and right punches into the air.

I kept it at a moderate speed which for me is about 300 miles per hour, each punch causing small bursts of air around them as the air didn't have enough time to move away. Each punch contained around 60 percent of my strength, this body of mine is not used to martial arts at all, so I had to work my way up slowly. But I should get to the point where even a casual strike of mine contains 100 percent of my strength in a few months and a extra 5-6 months to make sure that I can control how much power each strength has. I really do not want to turn people into meat paste the moment my finger touches them.

This might seem like a long time, but it takes decade for people to even use 80 percent of their strength, the human body has limiters set into it so that we don't hurt ourselves as we use our strength.

Kryptonian's have similar limitations, but they can be easily bypassed if you have enough control; which I don't have.

I keep throwing punches for a few hours, which then my muscles start to cramp a little, Kryptonian I may be, but even they are not immune to the pain muscles experience the first time exercising.

I have thrown a total of 9,350 punches, I could easily thrown a 1,000,000 if I was going at human speed and using only enough force to knock a human out. But I was going at 300 miles per hour with 60 percent of my strength going and was going at it for a few hours, each punch had the ability to destroy giant boulders like a bullet going through glass.

It was about 9 am and I started doing some advanced leg exercises that I made a few times harder. They would be almost impossible to do for even professional athletes, but I was breezing through them; by the time I was done my leg muscles were just warmed up a little.

I sighed and turned to the north of the forest, I got into a running position and I ran leaving behind a sonic boom waking up the animals.

I screamed in joy as I felt my adrenaline rushing as the wind gently washed over my face. My bio electric aura turning the g-force that would rip apart planes in seconds into a gentle summer breeze.

I could never run like this in the city because it would grab the eyes of several organizations how multiple sonic booms keep happening for no reason.

I kept running around making random turns as I mentally mapped out the forest. It was two objectives with one arrow, I got a little fun and a good warm up with also gaining familiarity with the forest.
