Re: Heroes X Marvel X DC 9 Coming Ou

Being sneaky, hiding behind a pillar peeking at my direction seemingly waiting for something to happen. This little brother of mine was born a year after I enrolled in ESU (Empire State University) and his deviousness at a young age might be due him growing up seeing me prank Sebastian in my leisure time to hone the art.

(Hmm, he must have set-up the cla.s.sic water bucket drop prank by the door. Hahaha it's still a thousand years early for you to try and prank my little brat.) 『John』

(Hehehe I will get you this time since my Whoopie cushions prank has. .h.i.t a wall. Hmph, hmph, let's see you get scolded by mom for coming home wet. Hehehe)『Steine』

(A/N: Whoopie cushions is a gag item for jokes that makes fart sounds when you make contact with it.)

I slowly opened the door along with my brother being hyped along with it thinking his prank is going to be successful, and once I flung it wide open the bucket dropped and splashed water down in the spot across the doorway.

"Nice try Lil bro, would have hit me had I crossed unknowingly." 『John』 said smirking evilly to his brother

"Wh... How the heck did you know??" 『Steine』 fl.u.s.tered as he moved out the pillar.

"I saw you peeking behind that pillar as soon as I closed in on the door, you should've waited inside instead to avoid alerting your target you know."『John』

"Ugh... Why didn't I thought about that!"『Steine』 doing a facepalm while pouting with baby fats in his cheeks still present.

"Haha come along now, we should head inside for dinner before mom's scream her lungs out." 『John』 while wiping the wet floor with his [Telekinesis]

"Whoa! How'd you do that? Do you have POWERS? Does that mean I also have one since I'm your brother? What about mom and dad? Do they have one too? Are we a superhero family? THAT'S AWESOME!"『Steine』 asked hurriedly shocked at the display of power his brother shown.

"Aight stop fussing about and I'll answer your questions along with mom and dad after dinner. So keep quiet until then alright?"『John』replied while slowly soothing his hyperactive younger brother.

Upon reaching the dining area thinking it is about time to come out in the open to my parents about me having activated my X-gene, and the current plans I am about to initiate preparing the start of Avengers arc with Tony Stark being kidnapped.

"Take your seats young masters, madam, and milord has been expecting you." 『Sebas』 as he guided us in our seats.

As soon as we sat and started dinner my brother ate fast and finished his meal first and began looking at me with googly eyes, expecting to start talking about what happened earlier.

I sighed at his behavior and after everyone finished their meals and with Sebastian serving everybody tea was the moment I came out of the closet. (A/N: NO h.o.m.o!) I signed at the servants to clear out the room as I had something to announce with Sebastian going along with them.

"Sebas why don't you take a seat too. Since you're literally family and help out here too."『John』 stopping Sebastian from going out.

"Yeah! Why you acting like a stranger uncle!"『Steine』

Yelled Steine at Sebas while pouting cutely that stopped Sebas from hesitating. Sebas looked at me and I nodded at him indication to apply the [Isolation Protocol] pressing a remote placed in his pocket stealthily before he sat installed in the whole mansion and each room.

"Oh, what's wrong dear? Are you finally bringing out your girlfriend to meet us?"『Janneth』 asked my mother expectantly.

"Finally! Bring her in! Or she hasn't arrived yet?" 『Conan』followed up by my dad.

"Wh... No! I mean not yet, but soon I will bring her over what's the rush? I'm talking bout something else way more important."『John』

"YAY! So what is it? What is it?!" 『Steine』 he shouted like having a sugar rush.

"Mom, dad..."『John』 I said slowly to cool down the atmosphere having everyone's attention and everybody quiet.

"I'm a METHUMAN." 『John』 said slowly emphasizing the last word expecting shocked expressions except for Sebastian as he was clued in earlier to keep it from my parents.

"""Metahuman?""" 『Steine, Mom u0026 Dad』 asked Steine, mom, and dad with a confused look.

"It's the young master's term for Mutant" 『Sebastian』he clarified.

"What Methuman? What kind of power? Since when did you know? And why now?"『Mom』

She asked after regaining her wits from the initially shocked expression quickly while dad kept quiet waiting for my answer from the same question. Noticing they recovered so quickly after my announcement, I guess that's what you'd expect from a businesswoman at her peak and a seasoned detective.

"Ok so answering your question backward mom. I'm telling everyone now as I don't want to keep secrets from everyone any longer as it will just become worse if you hear about it later or from somebody else other than me."『John』

"Well, that for sure is the correct young man." 『Dad』 replied roughly stating had I done the latter they wouldn't have let me off easily while mom nods along with him.

"Just that we're jealous of how come Sebas knew earlier than us your parents."『Mom』 retorted mom teasingly while having a small teardrop at the corner of her eyes.

"Waa... what did you do? Why are you making mom cry?"『Steine』 scolded me while running over to mom hugging her worried she might actually cry.

"It's alright little one, your brother was worried and think we might treat him differently back then before you came to our world. Isn't that right Sebas?"『Mom』 said in a soothing voice while stroking Steine's hair in her embrace with my brother glaring at me for making mom cry.

"Correct milady, as I thought it was his story to tell."『Sebastian』confirmed at my mom's query.

(My power is kind of complicated to explain, but for summarizing it, it's not limited to one application.) 『John』

I replied to everyone mentally while creating 2 clones with the cla.s.sic Naruto hand sign for Kage-bunshin, and one clone doing a Rasengan made of light the other made of darkness while floating a few inches above the ground.

Showing the most presentable abilities I have such as [Kinetic Duplication], [Yin-yang Force], [Flight], and [Telepathy]. Upon which I got the reactions I was hoping to receive seeing everyone wide-eyed including Sebas as he only knew of my [Telepathy] and [Kinetic Duplication].

"I activated my powers back when I was still 8-years-old, at first it was me being able to hear other people's thoughts then, a couple of years after I managed to control stuff through my mind. Years after that I learned to make a copy of myself than years after was when I can control light and darkness." 『John』

I explained shortly bowing at the end of the sentence along with my clones upon which I canceled them waiting with bated breath what kind of reactions I'll be getting from them. But soon was disappointed by my brother's screaming his heart out.

"THAT ISSSSSS AWWWEEESSSOOOOMMEE! Will I be getting powers once I reach 8-years old too? Can I also fly? I want to fly! Please, please, please LET MY FLY BIG BROOO!" 『Steine』yelled as he came running to tackle me headfirst in the stomach.

He screamed as soon as I finished my performance, bringing everyone in the room out of their shocked and speechless faces, not expecting to see such a show and not being prepared beforehand that the young genius they know has a lot more in him than what they already knew such as an exceptional mind and physique for training martial arts at a young age.

"OOOMF... Ouch, powers don't work that way bro. But I can grant your wish to fly with my [Telekinetic] ability with my supervision of course so you won't hurt yourself as long as mom and dad allow it tho."『John』

As I slowly caress the area in my stomach he headb.u.t.ted and ruffled his hair with my other hand with his eyes shining bright like a diamond from what I just said and looked expectantly at both mom and dad.

"So, that explains quite a lot of things about your behaviors recently and during your childhood. Still, you're not out of the woods yet for keeping such a secret to us your parents regarding such stuff. And dear we will talk about yours another time as it is getting late and time for you to sleep. Sebas will it be kind of you to wash Steine up and put him to bed?"『Mom』

"Aww... ok. See you tomorrow big broo! Teach me how to fly tomorrow ok!" 『Steine』 he insisted before coming along with Sebas out in the dining room.

After the two of them left, it was just me and my parents in the room when they started grilling me for explanations such as why I wanted to finish school earlier, hid my achievements regarding my studies, the "extracurricular activities" I did, and lastly my management and improvement of the Wayne Enterprise after mom handed me the Wayne Industries.

Which I deftly answered completely without keeping anything from them even the dangerous exercises I had done like sparring frequently against Juggernaut, apart from the fact that I'm a reincarnator that I will keep till the grave, which I know they might not react the same way as to how I exposed my secrets.

Also explaining my propaganda on why the term "METHUMAN" is much better than being called a "MUTANT".

They were shocked, worried, angry than relieved accordingly to the stories I gave them which feels like going on a roller coaster of feelings. After letting everything out in the open, I felt so relieved as if I just removed a thorn stuck in my throat for a long while as they looked at me sincerely and lovingly while going for a group hug that stayed still for a while before they let go of me.

"We are very thankful for you being honest and trusting us with all this information son, just know that we won't change the way we treat you having now the knowledge of everything you hid from us. Because we will just worry more being kept in the dark not knowing how you will end up worst-case scenario after going dangerous situation and many more 'What if's' okay!"『Mom』 said after kissing me in the forehead.

"What your mom said!" 『Dad』 while giving me another bear hug.

"Thanks, guys... You're the BEST PARENTS anyone could wish for!" 『John』 while having a small teardrop coming down at the corner of my eyes my dad slowly wiped for me.

"Alright time for you to head to your room and sleep then we will discuss more tomorrow as I can see that you're exhausted after that long explanation you just gave us and we also need time to absorb everything you just laid out on us ok." 『Dad』

"Goodnight mom, and dad!" 『John』 as I headed to my room to wash up and go straight to dreamland.

Which I can tell you were the best d.a.m.n sleep I had in two lives, man. Now accomplishing my childhood(Chunibyo) dreams come true, and not having to keep secrets around my closest ones other than my friends who will get to know soon.

---Next day---

In the morning, my brother jumped up and down on my bed waking me up showing he wanted to fly as soon as he could upon which I levitated him with [Telekinesis] a few meters above me going in circles like a ceiling fan for 30mins as revenge for disturbing my precious sleep.

"AHHHHH WHAT IS THIS?! I don't like to fly like this? Bro, can you get me down now, please? I'm getting dizzy... I feel like I'm about to puke..."『Steine』

He pleaded as I let him down slowly and brought him to the bathroom to vomit before heading down for breakfast, wouldn't want that s.h.i.t happening this early morning, and ruin my appet.i.te don't we. After that, he didn't ask me to help him fly anytime soon because of that traumatic experience.

After breakfast and before I could continue my discussion with my parents regarding last night's topics 『Augur』 notified me that I had my meeting with Kayaba in a couple of hours about the «Underworld Project».

---Wayne Enterprise Science and Research Department---

Walking in Kayaba's office and laboratory hidden deep underground the company grounds for security reasons, I was greeted by a sight of a huge silver cube cl.u.s.ter called «Quantum Particle Gate Crystallization».

Yep, you guessed it right, this is the quantum computer used in SAO: Alicization to store the Artificial Fluclights and mnemonic visual data of the Underworld, a powerful quantum computer also known as «LightCube» was created. The LightCube, measuring five centimeters in the construct is made from Praseodymium crystals, capable of housing hundreds of millions of qubits of data, makes it possible to store the data of a Cloned Fluctlight.

Looking at the man in front of the said cube with a special type of gla.s.s in between isolating the cube in the other side of the room for this one is way larger and advanced than the one used in the anime, as the man responsible for the concept is the one developing it now hands-on currently.

"Alice what is the progress of the A.I.'s in Aincrad?『Kayaba』 asked out loud in the air not noticing that his boss just walked in his office and standing right behind him.

" «The Knights of the Blood» guild had reached 60th floor while the guild

«Fuurinkazan» is right behind them pa.s.sing the 50th floor." 『Alice』 replied the feminine voice through the speakers in the large screen next to Kayaba.

"I'm believe everything is fairing well and that we are ahead of schedule than what has been predicted by our calculations doctor." 『John』 I interrupted the two as I made my presence known.

"Hmm... I guess you could say so, but I still feel it lacks something." 『Kayaba』 while stroking his chin thinking what it is that he may have missed.

"Alright, that's enough researching this month take a long break outside the lab and live a life doctor. Don't worry about it for now as we are already way ahead of schedule by a year or so. And judging by your current looks, seems like you hadn't stepped out of this lab for a couple of months?"『John』 dragging the doctor out of his lab against his will.

"He has been enclosed for a total of 6 months, sir."『Alice』 as the voice in the speakers replied hurriedly and worriedly.

"I guess being provided with the techs, data, and self-sufficient isolated laboratory deep underground also has its downfall huh. Alright, Alice initiates lock-down on the max level restriction until I say so on his lab and deactivate his key card permit on other's laboratory too." 『John』 ordered out lout in the air.

"Acknowledged"『Alice』replied through the speakers in the corridor.

"What? What's this all about suddenly? I'm making great progress John! I'm in the zone!"『Kayaba』 complained about why still being dragged out of the underground laboratory.

"I know you are, but will you still be able to keep researching if you died of exhaustion and of hunger being malnourished. You even grew a bread unknowingly man, you're still a young adult man in his early twenties go party out and get laid or something." 『John』

I argued while thinking of setting him up with Koujiro Rinko whom he missed meeting as I pulled him out of j.a.pan way back during the time skip. I guess I'll leave that to my clones and 『Augur's』hacking skill to set up a coincidental encounter between the two.

(Quest created)『Augur』 replied having read my thoughts.

"As soon as you bring a real and legit girlfriend home for me to meet until the end of the year will I allow you to research in your lab again DEAL?"『John』 I told him before he entered the bathroom inside the company building to clean up.

"Tsk, fine DEAL! You'll see me getting back my lab sooner than you think."『Kayaba』 replied in a huff walking in to wash up.

Now with that settled, I headed up on to my office and put up new regulations regarding the issue of working too long in the laboratories. Such as putting safety protocols that no one is allowed to conduct risky research alone and without my knowledge or go ahead.

Working time will be limited to 10 hours every day or they will be kicked out of their respective laboratories if they stayed longer than that. They will be provided a healthy diet meal breakfast, lunch, and dinner while also needing to accomplish a couple of daily exercises to keep a fit body.

If they require an extension of working hours due to high maintenance research or development they will have to send a request to me a week before. This is so no one will become a mad scientist on me and create more abominations that will be adding more to the already chaotic world of Marvel.

Having applied the new regulations and had 『Augur』 notified everyone about such an update I already got a lot of complaints about those who are already deeply concentrated in their studies and research. Paying no heed to those for a while, I went back to the data Kayaba had on the «Underworld Project».

As some of you may well know, this project is about the creation of A.I. from scratch by having an independent personality, upon which we have Alice the one responsible for managing all the Wayne Enterprise's Systems in sync with 『Augur』.

A.L.I.C.E (Artificial Labile Intelligent Cybernated Existence, or a highly adaptive artificial intelligence), upon who also came from the «Underworld Project».

But the difference of this one from the manga/novel/anime is that «Underworld Project» is more based in reality, where no one can use magic or skills even status where an 'Axiom Church' emerged to take control. However with the Fluclight Acceleration (FLA) rate set to 1000, equivalent to one week had pa.s.sed in real life), wherein we increased it up to 5000 and keep it like that for the length of 6 years.

They have reached the modern age where we can now meddle with, as we inputted all the different religions inside too. The lore, myths, and legends that came along with said religions became a norm there with a twist though.

We released the games GGO (Gun Gale Online), SAO (Sword Art Online) then ALO (ALfheim Online) inside to develop «Underworld» into 3 different stages as a platform where once they cleared them people who cleared it can ascend to «Above-world» that was mentioned in all religions that they follow inside.

GGO for military training and improving their reflexes and mindset, while SAO is responsible for making them adapt to using magic and skills. Lastly ALO for training them in different situations such as Aerial Battles with magic and skills, while also including territorial wars.
