Superhero Manager System Defense Card
Whatever it was Luna was going to do, or was it Astra was going to do, she never got a chance to do so. Alonso took the initiative as he clapped his hands, eldritch black chains appeared out of the robes that he was wearing, rushing forwards to wrap around the young woman. At first, it did not seem as if it was doing anything until she started screaming out in pain. Her voice was dissonant, two in one echoing out into infinity. Arome wanted to move, but Alonso turned in his direction and waved his arms, the same black chains rushing towards him.Arome had no intention of being bound, based on what he had seen of Alonso, and his interactions with Rowan. Getting captured by this man was a worse fate than death. So he opened fire, jumping to the side as he rolled out of the way, only for a couple of those chains to stab into the ground with a fury. Tiles were blasted apart, debris scattering as Arome focused and opened fire, bullets flying with rage as Rowan joined in.Arome had lost his
Superhero Manager System Abducted
Arome tried to get up, but the world seemed to be turning over on itself as he crashed down to the ground, barely able to gather his equilibrium. He felt arms wrap around his chest, for a second he almost lashed out, until he realized it was the teenage boy… Marisa’s son. He had no idea who the boy was, and his helmet seemed to have been knocked offline. Whatever that explosion of energy was, it was extremely dangerous and powerful. Arome let the boy drag him backwards, as the world slowly came back into focus.“Are you okay? Talk to me mister?”Arome could hear, but that did not mean he was conscious enough to speak now. He struggled to his feet one more time. This time his body seemed willing to listen to his commands. With a little bit of help from the boy, Arome was back up on his feet. His sister was there too, and the entire residence looked like a bomb had gone off. He moved his eyes quickly, noticing Rowan and the Twins...twin? Getting up, but Alonso was nowhere to be found. W

Arome did not want to help anyone anymore. Especially not when the person asks him in such a way. He got back up to his feet, feeling the weakness still hanging on to him. Suddenly, Rowan was there with a cup of hot chocolate. Arome looked up at the man, who gave him a little nod.“There’s always a cost to he paid for power, I figure since this resurrection took longer, your mind, and spirit must be severely exhausted. I would advise you to avoid dying for the next few days, anymore, and you risk a chance of not being able to come back. No power is for free.” Arome nodded his thanks as he took the cup from Rowan, but not before glaring at the twin in front of him. He moved his head to the side where the teenage girl was sitting down with her head in her hands. He idly sipped the cup of hot chocolate when he turned once more to look for the teenage boy. But when he couldn’t find him, the last moments of his last death came to him, as he rose up to his feet. However, he had moved so qui

“Well?”Arome raised an eyebrow at how impatient she was. It seems his stats would not be helping him in this conversation at all. Perhaps it would have been a lot easier with the other sister… Luna, was it? This rude arrogant bitch in front of him, should be Astra and the one with Dark Matter Manipulation. Normally, he’d have expected her power to be Anti-Matter manipulation, but dark matter was not that far from antimatter. Either way, her powers were even more worrying than the other twin. If a negotiation tactic didn’t work with her, then he’d deal with her straight.“Your mother already promised me a lot just to come and get you guys. And I’ve died so many times I’ve lost count, so I’m going to need something that can and should at least secure a future for me in case your mother decides to screw me over.” Astra narrowed her eyes, but at the very least the animosity in her eyes reduced a bit, it seems she preferred it when people were straight forward with her.“You will sign a l
Superhero Manager System The Oath
Arome was still reeling from the contents of the Twins blood oath. He turned to look at Rowan, who had an equally shocked look on his face, and a little bit of a blush too. Just to spite their mother, Luna and Astra had given an oath that was pretty much a slave contract/declaration of love. It was confusing, but she was simply supposed to just say she would be his client for the entirety of her superhero career. He was not so heartless as to make her sign her entire life away to him. It had been a test on his part to see just how far she could go and how far he could push her.The Twins were powerful, they were S-rank in power. And even though they were unrefined and not trained. That can be handled quickly. He knew he had a pair of women with the potential to unseat his cousin as the most famous hero of the younger generation. If he could not have his throne, then he would deny his cousin the one thing the bastard cared about more than anything else in the world. His ego and his fam

Arome followed behind Luna as she moved to a different section of the residential area. It seemed to be her bedroom, and while this was not the first time he had been in a girl’s bedroom, this time he felt particularly intrusive. So he kept to himself and tried to look around too much. But at the end he couldn’t help himself, everything in here or if there was anything at all was Spartan. A single bed, a metal desk and chair, a canvass with a half-finished painting. A simple closet and a fridge close to the bed, and that was it.The walls were gray and absent any paintings or decoration. It was as if Luna and Astra lived her as prisoners. There was no sign to show the warmth of a home or having your personal space, it was just the half finished painting that seemed so out of place within the room, and mostly because of how vibrant it looked. She pulled open her closet and grabbed a towel and what seemed to be a suit that had been hung at the back. She turned to him.“Make yourself at
Superhero Manager System E Rank

It draws from the presence and charm start./ Subskill: Commanding Presence: As a leader, a firm tone, and Imposing aura is required. This is a passive skill granting a permanent but slight boost to the presence stat. It also makes your followers more likely to follow your orders.]It was becoming a theme with the system by this point. From what it could see, it was grooming him to be a sort of public figure. Which frankly speaking is what a manager is. They were the liaisons between their heroes and the rest of the world and were usually just as famous as their heroes. All of these skills about making his presence more felt. An image was being built, and for a manager that was the most important. You were usually the first perception of the world had of your hero, and it was important what sort of image your projected. It was also how you could negotiate deals on their behalf,
Superhero Manager System Suited Up
“Are you ready to leave?” Arome was pulled out of the depths of his thoughts by Luna. She was dressed in one piece body suit. It hugged her curves and accented her body at a level he had never thought possible. The suit was white with gold highlights, but had a cape that flowed out of her shoulders and had a hood attached to it too. She had on boots that seemed to not only be steel toes but we’re reinforced and augmented with metal fillings in different parts of it. It made her boots a sturdy piece of weaponry, and considering Luna’s power was the ability to manipulate matter, this was saying something. Her boots could be anything she willed them to become.Arome noticed that she held in her hands a mask similar to his helmet. But this was just a full-face mask. Unlike the rest of her get up, her mask was actually a pitch black with dots on it that made it seemed as if you were looking at eyes in the night sky. But still his eyes kept roaming down to her body, and he’d rather not be

“Is this it? This is where we’re going to be staying while here? It’s ugly.” Luna voice rang out from ahead of Arome, but he paid her no need as he moved around the abandoned club. For the duration of the time that they’ll be in San-Franmikyo, this place would serve as their base of operations. Arome was lucky he found the place, it had extra rooms a dance floor that Arome would transform into a lavish living room in the coming days.There were extra rooms that had probably seen the wrong sort of use in the past. But after cleaning up a bit they’re shouldn’t be a problem from the building to host all five of them. Amina and her brother Amina were always intended to be Arome’s personal life guards from the moment he had been born. His mother was insisted they remain with him, and that was how Arome decided instead of them just being bodyguards, they would serve as heroes of his agency themselves.[You Have Signed Two More Heroes and Taken further steps into becoming the ultimate manag
The First Mission
While construction was still ongoing on their base, Arome decided he needed to get in on the action. He was getting tired of waiting around and playing politics. As it was he had already sent Aunty Kemi back home, she was the head of the temple guards and had duties she needed to handle. Plus, she could not refute an order from his father, so she left with the crown prince.Arome gritted his teeth. His father being the crown prince was a title that was just there for show. He shook his head, there was no need to dwell on anything other than what was in front of him, and that was choosing the first mission that their team would have to deal with.Arome sat at his cluttered desk, a holographic catalog shimmering in front of him. The digital pages flipped silently, revealing detailed profiles of the world's most notorious villains. Each entry was accompanied by high-resolution images, crime statistics, and a dossier of their known powers and abilities.He scrolled past images of menacing
The Way Of Art
Somewhere In San-FranmikyoGrand States of Merica.Domingo Yen was many things, but a supervillain was not one of them. Those freakshows in their edgy costumes and self-righteousness, existed to make life miserable for everyone. They took away valuable artistic materials, these bastards done know they kill too much with their fights. They did not leave enough skin and concrete for his artful carvings to come to life.“Ahhh, I hate supervillains so much. They ruin all my materials.”“If you’re not a supervillain then what are you, asshole! a serial killer?”Domingo Yen turned onto the secluded street near the bay. He could hear the sound and spray of the sea, a powerful natural force that moved through everything. This inspired him greatly.He was dressed in his samurai kimono, his chest bare to the world and crisscrossed with garish scars that could haunt the dreams of the most resilient warrior. The oni mask on his face hung crooked to one side, exposing enough of his face and single
The Offer II
Arome gave an annoyed look to the glass that had just poisoned him, the secretary even continued to drink leisurely from his, acting unbothered. But nevertheless, everything this man just said has him more than a little worried. A virus that only this ability can heal, he found it hard to believe. There was another angle at play here, and regardless of what threats or offers this man threw his way, Arome would never willingly throw himself into dying over and over again, not unless he had no other choice.“I’m afraid I can’t help your Mr. secretary. Since you’ve never experienced it before, and seeing how hard you are trying to avoid it, dying is not fun. And only a fool will completely subject himself to death repeatedly. You don’t have nearly enough money in your bank account to make me do this. In case you’ve forgotten, I am still a prince. Our kingdom might not be worth much out in the wider world and cosmos, but we are still reasonably self-sufficient. I have no need for money, s
The Offer
Arome came back alive, choking on his own blood. He quickly turned to the side where he disgorged the entire contents of his stomach, dry heaving and struggling to breathe with each cow clench of his stomach. His suit was bloodied and smelled rather foul, whatever it was this virus was, it seemed like it was specially designed for supers.“I have to say that I am surprised, I did not expect you to survive that. And if you can survive that, it seems it would take me blasting you to atoms in a nuclear chamber before I can end you for good. There’s no guarantee if I chuck you into the sun you will survive, that might even strengthen you, the sun is a star in the end.”Arome gave him the middle finger, as he got back up to his feet and stumbled towards the door, he needed to get the hell out of here before he would do something he’d regret.”“And where are you going?” The secretary asked, looking amused as Arome stumbled away from him.“Isn’t it obvious, I'm getting away from your psychot
The Teacher
Unfortunately, Arome could not escape the event as quickly as he had wanted to, not before he had a one-on-one meeting with the secretary of the UNCH. It was how Arome found himself following the Secretary’s secretary down an empty hallway before coming before a set of massive double doors. The secretary moved to the side and pointed at the door. It seems from here on out Arome would have to go by himself.Arome took a deep breath and pushed the doors open, stepping into a room that was a stark contrast to the dimly lit hallway. The secretary's office was a masterpiece of luxury and grandeur, a testament to the power and influence that the position held.The room was bathed in a warm, golden light that seemed to emanate from the crystal chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling, their prisms casting a delicate dance of light upon the intricately patterned marble floor. The walls were adorned with rich, dark wood paneling, each segment carved with meticulous detail, telling stories of
The Summon II
“By order of his majesty you are not return home and take on an official post.”Arome’s eyes took on a hard edge on that, he might have a lot of guilt towards his parents, but there was no love lost between him and his grandfather. Some of the worst things he has ever had to do, had come from his orders. His grandfather was a different kind of monster that no one in the whole kingdom could match up to. He was ready and willing to use anyone and anything to get what he wanted.“I’m afraid I will have to decline father. As you can see, I have commitments and an agency to run. Idu does not need me to take on any posts. Besides any post that I can take up has already been filled, the kingdom already has a crown prince in the process of carrying out his ten years of service. And I am not coming back so that I can play second fiddle to him and his bastard father1!”Arome’s father hissed in annoyance as he slammed his hands on the table in front of him, the sound so loud that Astra jumped in
The Summon I
Arome was not stupid, he had gone completely off the script that had been given to him by the UNCH. But he didn’t care either way, this was his way of showing them that he was playing along, but also a reminder that they did not own him, not anymore at least. And what was the worst they could do to him, kill him? The last people that had thought killing Arome would solve their problems, had ended up finding out the hard way that he was not so easily gotten rid of. But still he had been able to make an impact, the tabloids would have a field day with the announcement and the speech. Those who were smart enough would have noticed the careful placed barbs in his words, his subtle way of throwing shade at the UNCH. For sure they would notice it, and he knew there would be a reckoning coming from them. The only way to do so would be to get so much stronger they would not be able to do anything to him. But they won’t make any moves early on, of course he was sure they would try and sabotag
The Event III
Propaganda, politics, games the elite play with the lives of the common man. Arome was now firmly stepping into that world. He was no longer a teenager with bristling anger against the world. A boy who could only see everything that had happened to him as unfair as he asked repeatedly why his grandfather did not love him. A boy who grew up seeing his father take care of their people wholeheartedly, teaching lessons of kindness, responsibility and the upholding of traditions in order to honor your ancestors.But most importantly, living your life the right way so that the person you see in the mirror, was someone you could be proud of. Arome’s entire life has been one bad choice after the other. The military might have been his grandfather’s orders, a punishment for a Wayward prince absent the family bloodline, but he had chosen to stay there. His banishment had been from his grandfather’s court, not the kingdom, but his own anger and stubbornness drove him into a life that filled with
