--------------------

'System add 2 attributes to perception and 1 ability point to enhanced speed.'

I decided that I should upgrade my perception which should help me be able to sense better and upgrade my enhanced speed which will help me become even faster.

-------

<Perception: 6>

<Enhanced Speed - Level 3>

-------

'Hmm, what's this.' I thought as I looked at my Weapon creation skill.

As soon as I focused on it a new screen appeared.

--------

[Weapon Creation Ability]

-Creations-

Throwing Needle (Esper Skill)

Info: The host can create a small needle with his Weapon Creation Ability.

Cost: -2 ESP

System remark: This weapon's level depends on Weapon Creation's level.

----------

"Oh, so I guess every weapon I create will be saved here."

[Yes, they will.]

"I hear him he's on the third floor!"

'Shit, why did I talk out loud.' I thought Internally cursing at my stupidity I headed for the nearest door on my right.

It was locked so I shot the handle with the pistol and entered.

It was a small one-bedroom apartment with a living room and kitchen.

I moved the table and some chairs to block the door. They wouldn't be able to stop a meta-human from entering, but they could buy me some time to take action.

I didn't know what to do next so I hid behind a wall while aiming the pistol at the door.

I had 22 bullets left and my leg was injured, but I could still feel some excitement at this moment.

I heard multiple footsteps going up the stairs until they finally reached the front of my door.

I was surprised how they found me so fast until I saw the trail of blood leading from the door towards my position.

I knew they would find me eventually, but I thought I could take them by surprise.

"BOY YOU BETTER COME OUT NOW AND HAND YOURSELF OVER OR ELSE WE WILL KILL YOUR SISTER! YOU ARE LUCKY WE HAVEN'T ALREADY AS YOU KILLED ONE OF OUR BROTHERS."

I heard a man scream from behind the door which made my face pale and my hands shake.

Before I could respond to the man's choice the system interrupted me.

[The Host is being lied to. Elizabeth is fine right now they are trying to get into the Host's head.]

'How are you sure about that! Ellie could die I'm not gonna take that chance.' I said to the system before walking towards the door.

[What will the Host do if they are lying.]

[If you walk out that door they will capture you and then the Host will be used to capture Elizabeth.]

[How will the Host live with himself knowing that he had a choice to fight, but he let his fears take control of him.]

[Which would lead to the Host and his sister's death.]

I couldn't deny the system's statement, but I was still conflicted. What if Ellie was truly captured and then they killed her because I didn't listen to them.

[To help the Host make his decision faster the system will give the Host some motivation]

-------------

[SYSTEM'S MOTIVATION QUEST]

Details: (The Host is supposed to become a Supreme, someone with great power. How can he let this group of Rank 0 Metahumans force his hand?)

Option 1: Send these fools behind the door to the afterlife as a punishment for their crimes. <0/20>

[Rewards]

<New Skill >

<Confirmation of Sister's condition.>

Option 2: Why would a Supreme need more than one option?

[Failure]

- The system will leave the Host and the Host will die.

-----------

I looked at the new quest in front of me and unconsciously smiled.

I had to cover my mouth to stop myself from laughing.

"Ahhh, you want to force my hand, right System."

I didn't get a response.

Though I wasn't expecting one from such a shameless system.

"I coming out don't hurt my sister!" I screamed and walked near the door.

I spread out my perception and I could feel the group's presence better now that it was upgraded.

'There are 2 on the right side of the door, 1 in front, and then 5 no 6 now on the left, and more coming since that's where the stairs are.

The rest are too far away for me to sense, but seeing as the system said everyone in this building with the number 20 I'm guessing the other 280 are outside.'

I pointed my gun at the wall aiming for the head of one of the men on the right side of the door.

"YOU BETTER COME OUT NOW OR ELSE SHE WILL DIE!"

"We will see who dies"

I pulled the trigger twice making the whole building silent until there was a loud thud.

-----------

[+100 XP for killing a Rank 0 Metahuman]

[2/300 Hostiles Eliminated]

[1/20 Fools sent to the afterlife.]

-----------

I aimed toward the other person on the right, but he dodged the fatal hit.

"Argh, that bastard shot me!"

Knowing I was in a bad position I ran back to take cover behind the couch.

Bang

The door exploded sending the table and chairs flying. Then I saw three weird-looking balls being thrown into the middle of the room.

Beep

Beep beep

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

BOOM

All three of them exploded at the same time each giving different effects.

One spread a blue energy pulse through the room and I felt my gun deactivate.

The second was like a magnet and started to pull everything towards the center of the room where it exploded.

The last started covering the whole room in a cloud of thick white smoke.

"Shit what the fuck is this." I cursed while being dragged toward the center of the room with the couch. I got hit in the back by a coffee table and chair as I was being pulled to the center of the room.

The damage they did to me was minimal, but it stopped me from resisting the pull.

What surprised me were these new gadgets.

I have done research before and never heard about ones with effects like these.

This meant the secret organization attacking me had a good background or supplier.

"We caught him." I heard as I felt a large hand grab my neck from behind.

'Where the fuck did he come from.' I thought baffled. I couldn't see with all the smoke in the room so I thought the same applied to them, but he found me easily.

Then there were all the obstacles in the way covering me too.

'Does he have skill or ability that lets him see through all of this?' I thought momentarily forgetting my situation.

His grip on my next tightened bringing me back.

Every breath I took got harder and I was unable to move my head.

"Final caught this little fucking brat. Did they catch the girl yet?" The man holding my neck said as he dragged me.

I watched in amazement as the cloud of white smoke started to get pulled in a certain direction which later revealed the door.

"No, they haven't yet." A man responded while holding out his arm sucking all the white smoke in the room into his hand.

My awe towards his ability didn't last as I was helplessly dragged out of the room into the hallway.

I saw a person try and charge at me, but he was being held back by 2 men.

I looked to my right to see a woman crying while holding a dead body while someone with a helmet tried to console her.

I looked to my left and saw the rest of the group there with different gadgets and metal boxes.

I didn't get to examine everything as I was thrown to the ground before I felt a heavy handcuff bind my arms.

I tried moving my hands, but all I got was a shock which made me let out a scream.

"Hahahaha, boy you should give up now. You won't be able to use any of your powers with these on." A man laughed while watching me struggle.

My eyes widened at that statement and the system's notification didn't help.

[Some of the Host Abilities have been sealed]

[The Host will not be able to use Solar Manipulation, Weapon Creation, Spatial Manipulation]

'How could this happen?' I thought with fear.

'Why is all this crazy shit happening to me, is my luck just this horrible today?'

'First I die, then get a crazy system, my mother died, and now I'm being targeted by a secret organization who wants to capture me and my sister.'

'Why is everything going so bad for me today?'

Before I could continue the system hit me with a cold bucket of ice.

[Stupid Host I said that all of your Host Abilities have been sealed however the Abilities and Skills gained from the system can be used.]

I looked blankly at the notification before cursing at the system. However this time it wasn't because I was angry, but out of embarrassment.

"Haha." I couldn't help but laugh at my stupidity though.

I clearly read the 3 abilities which were sealed, but I thought all of them were.

'Why am I always being negative... Ah, these guys are gonna get fucked. System how much ESP do I have.'

I got kicked in the face which made me focus back on the people in the room.

"What you laughing at boy answer the question. Where is that slut of a mother you have at."

[Host has 10/30 ESP]

I looked at the characters in front of me ignoring the man and let out a creepy laugh.

[Host has active skill Flare]

The temperate surrounding me started to get warmer by the second and the group started to sweat.

"What's happening why is it getting so hot."

"Damn, I feel like I'm burning."

"It's the boy! He's doing it!"

They all started arguing before everyone turned toward me.

The man who was on my back had already moved off me so I was sitting up looking at all of them.

The rest had taken off their helmets revealing 4 women and 15 were men.

Although I felt a little bad for harming women as I grew up with two females I quickly steeled my resolve with the fact that they were nothing like my family.

'They attacked me first so they can only blame themselves.' I shook my head while counting down. At this time they started to point their guns at me and one even tried to shoot me, but it didn't work.

'It's only been around 6 seconds and even the walls started to melt.' I thought looking around.

Either this building was made with cheap materials or this skill is overpowered.

I turned toward the man who called my mother a slut and gave him one of my most charming smiles.

"You know, it's funny how every time someone calls my mother a slut they die. "

"Wha.."

BOOM!!!

He didn't get to finish as I discharged all the energy I stored.

The lights flickered as a wave of red and orange radiation spread from my body destroying everything in the hallway.

I closed my eyes at the intense light coming from my body and waited until everything cooled down and as the sound of notifications reached my ears I couldn't help, but smile.

——

I listen to the notifications while being bathed in heat.

I realized that this skill had a flaw.

Although it could have big effects like this, I wasn't completely resistant to the heat I could store and I would be in a state of weakness as I was blinded.

'System pull up my data.' I asked once I could finally see.

The temperature was still too hot for any normal human to be in, but I was feeling better as I let all the stored energy out of me.
