Superhero Manager System The Manager Who Would Be King
It did not take more than ten minutes for Arome to awaken, he didn't know if it was because of the same reason Rowan had given about him being exhausted after so many deaths, but it was annoying this time around. Healing from a bullet wound to the head was weird, and frankly speaking it was not something that Arome wanted to ever experience again. He grunted, the sound of an explosion echoing in the background. He groaned as he turned over, his new clothes stained with his own blood as he arose with vengeance an anger in his face. Luna was there with him; she had a worried look on her face that Arome quickly brushed off. He did not want anyone looking at like that, with so much pity in their eyes it was sickening. There was nothing for to worry about, he was completely fine, but the same could not be said for the assassins responsible for the attack. With Kemi focusing on their leader, Aliyu made short work of the rest of them. Even as Arome was getting up, he could see the temple gua

Arome opened the door to his apartment with a rather tired look on his face. Aliyu and Kemi moved past him, quickly casing the apartment and checking if there was anything suspicious around. He shook his head, even if there was a trap or anything of the sort, with how much people he had crammed into the small one-bedroom apartment, he wasn’t sure it would have mattered anyways. He pointed towards his bedroom then turned to Luna. “The bath is in there, you can look through my closet and see if there’s anything there that fits. You have thirty minutes before we have to leave. There’s no doubt this place has been compromised, so take a shower and get changed. We’ll wait for you. “ Luna looked like she wanted to say something else, but Arome was already moving to his kitchen where he had left his laptop and tablet. His phone was in shambles somewhere under the many rubble that was once a part of Falcon-Eagle Industries. The building itself was still standing, but considering the amount o
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Mr Secretary
THE GRAND STATES OF MERICAUNCH HEADQUARTERS 1ST STREET BOULEVARD, NEW DESTINY The man could not believe his ears, he turned looking from one end of the table to the next, shocked at the level of stupidity it seems the younger generation had. The Secretary of the UNCH was a hard man. He was the last of the old guards and it was such a stress having to keep a stranglehold on his power when he had to deal with young upstarts who felt that they could do his job better than he could. Now they have gone and dropped this collosal level of bullshit on his table and left it for him to clean up. He turned to his left where the chancellor of the Nubian continent sat with a rather ponderous look on his face. The man should be privy to anything heroes from that part of the world did, so there was no way he was not aware of the stupidity Star Lion had just done. “It doesn’t matter how hard you look at Mr. Secretary, I have no answers for you. But I will admit I have been lax in my control and o
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Tense Exchange
Arome looked through the curtains on the window one more time. It was beginning to annoy him how many reporters were gathered outside the hotel they were in, even more when he couldn't sleep. This would have been just as good a time as any to look through his system's and see what sort of changes he could implement. But everything was exhausting right now, he knew he needed sleep, but that seemed extremely far away from him and then there’s the fact that somehow reporters had found out where they were holed up for the night, the hotel had its own security and thankfully they were capable enough to hold the reporters back. But Arome knew it was only a matter of time before one of them found a way to sneak behind or around those guards and come pester him. He grunted and moved away from the window, grabbing a glass of whiskey, the ice in it already melted with how long he had spent just watching the people outside the window. He moved across the suite to the other side where a balcony o
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Breakfast Buffet
Daylight did not exactly bring him the peace that he was looking for, but nevertheless, there was just something rejuvenating about waking up in the morning and feeling like a brand-new person. With the confusions and dram of the previous day over, even with the loss that the Temple Guard had incurred, Arome was looking forward to what he could achieve as a manager. But first he would have to deal with the people coming over to see him today. But as it stands, he did not think that there was anything that could possibly spoil his good mood...well until he laid eyes on Astra... As if he was the most revolting being on earth, the moment she saw him, she retreated letting Luna come out who had no qualms in showing Arome just how lowly she thought of him. Well, they were free to think whatever the hell they wanted to think, it was not as if their opinions mattered to him. They were no more than clients, of course they were clients that were bound to him till the end of their lives but st
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Negotiations I
Arome leaned back, considering her words carefully while the tension in the room thickened. He had expected some form of confrontation, but Marisa's approach caught him off guard. He knew that whatever she proposed would be in her favor, yet the opportunity to potentially turn the situation to his advantage was too tempting to ignore. He studied her, looking for any sign of deceit, but Marisa's expression remained resolute, her eyes reflecting a mixture of determination and desperation. This negotiation could either forge a new alliance or lead to further animosity, but Arome understood the delicate balance of power at play. His pride and past grievances tugged at him, but the pragmatic part of his mind recognized that cooperation might be the most strategic path forward. With a measured breath, he nodded slightly, signaling his willingness to hear her out, all the while bracing himself for the complexities that lay ahead. The breakfast buffet, now a distant memory, was replaced by th
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Negotiations II
“Well, what is it you have to offer, I'm not saying I will accept anything. But what is it you want to offer?” Arome asked with a focused look on his face, at the same time he made sure to keep his eyes on the people around that looked like they were out of place. The bodyguards Marisa had come here with were not the only one’s present here. Arome could see even more people that seemed out of place within the restaurant, even among the staff that were serving them, he could tell that quite a few of them, moved with the kind of professional gait you would not see in a waiter or waitress. The way they carried themselves, the angle with which their bodies were presented, leaving one hand free in case they needed to reach for a weapon. Arome smiled, as he waved at one of the waitresses, surprising Marisa who was about to speak."Hello sir, please what can I help you with?" The waitress that Arome had called over asked him with a bright smile on her face. He nodded at her, then pointed at
Superhero Manager System Book 2: Negotiations III
Marisa looked like the only thing she wanted to do right now was to rip Arome’s face off. Even more so when she took into consideration the way Arome had shown such control over her daughter. But what Marisa did not understand was that Arome’s current display, especially with the way he just interacted with Luna was for the benefit of his cousin Bayo. Based on the intense look of fury and the embarrassed look of shame on Luna’s face, it seems he got what he was aiming for. It was obvious, that even a blind man from afar could see the look of longing Bayo sent Luna’s way. And even though it was reflected in her eyes too, Arome would never sit back and let Bayo have anything good, and most definitely not Luna. Since this fool cousin of his stole his throne, then Arome will steal everything else from him, and it seems at the very top of that list was Luna.Marisa clenched her fists under the table, seething with barely contained rage. She knew that Arome was playing a dangerous game, one

Severance Vs The White Lion II
Arome crashed to the ground in a pool of his own blood. Severance burst into a wild and raucous laughter as he spread his arms wide. He turned hoping to find the look of despair he was so overly fond of, etched in the faces of Arome’s comrades. Instead, he watched wide eyes as they systematically dismantled the force he came with, his eyes drawn to the way Luna literally turned the bodies of his allies inside out. It was a scene that spoke to him and shook him to his very core. He took a step back, watching as the last of his allies were either subdued or killed. Leaving him alone against the rest of them.“I would advise you to run, your leader, Mr. prince has already fallen to me. He’s dead, cut into pieces like the animal that he is. But I welcome you all to try and face me, it would bring me so much pleasure to sever you from your bonds on this earth. And you!” he turned to Look at Luna who had taken a seat and was looking at him with one leg crossed over the other. Her pitch-blac
Severance Vs The White Lion I
Arome stared at Severance as the super villain looked right back at him. There was an obvious tension in the air as both men were waiting for the other to make the first move. Arome was not stupid, he knew he had to be extremely careful when it came to Severance, his power was the sort that could not be dealt with in a straight forward manner. Arome inclined his head towards the katana that Severance held as he asked.“Do you know how to use that?” he asked as he turned and nodded to Aminu. Who gave him a bow and pulled up the case holding Arome’s own sword from under the bar’s counter. Severance raised an eyebrow. “What?, you want to have some sort of sword duel with me or something. I should warn you, I am a lot more dangerous than you think I am, you can not match me in a fight with blades, I will tear you to shreds.” Arome scoffed as he nodded his head.“That may be so, but you’re still going to be the one that ends up dead. So answer my question, do you know how to use that?” A
Arrival
Arome sat in his modest room, the flickering glow of the television casting long shadows across the room. The news anchor's voice was solemn, relaying the chilling details of another brutal attack in the heart of the city. "Authorities have confirmed that the notorious villain known as Severance has struck again, leaving a trail of chaos and death in his wake. The latest incident occurred late last night in an abandoned apartment complex, where several high-profile criminal figures were found dead along with their families. Witnesses report seeing a lone figure, wielding a katana, moving through the area with lethal precision. The police are urging citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity." Arome sighed, his mind racing with thoughts of the relentless killer who seemed to evade capture at every turn. He knew that Severance was no ordinary criminal; his methods were too refined, too calculated. This was a predator with a purpose, and it was becoming increasingly
Excitement For Bloodshed
Mayor Akiko's office was bathed in the dim glow of the city lights that filtered through the tall windows. She stood by her desk, her silhouette sharp against the backdrop of the sprawling metropolis. With a quick, decisive motion, she picked up the phone and dialed Severance’s number.The phone rang only once before Severance answered, his voice a deep rumble. "Severance here.""Severance, we have a situation that requires immediate action," Akiko's voice was calm, each word meticulously chosen. "Prince Arome and his companions cannot be allowed to continue their operations. They have become a thorn in our side, one that must be removed.""Understood, Mother," Severance replied, his tone firm and resolute.Akiko's expression tightened at the term, but she pressed on. "The club is their stronghold," Akiko explained, her fingers tapping rhythmically on the desk. "It’s heavily guarded, but we have the element of surprise. Gather Zhang and his crew. I want this done swiftly and efficient
Rage
The air in the mayor's office was thick with tension, a storm brewing just beneath the surface. Mayor Akiko stood behind her grand oak desk, her eyes blazing with fury. The veins on her neck and temples were visibly pulsing as her rage reached a crescendo. This was not the composed, calculating politician the city knew; this was a woman on the edge, a force of nature about to unleash her wrath.With a primal scream, Akiko's hands swept across the desk, sending papers, files, and ornaments crashing to the floor. The sound of breaking glass echoed through the room as picture frames and trinkets shattered against the walls. Her once immaculate office was rapidly transforming into a scene of chaos and destruction.She grabbed the edge of the desk and overturned it with a roar, the heavy wood slamming onto its side. The sheer force of her anger seemed to reverberate through the room, shaking the very foundations of the building. Bookshelves were next to face her wrath, their contents spill
Confessions In A Meeting
Arome took a deep breath, trying to steady the whirlpool of emotions that Luna had stirred within him. He could still feel the phantom touch of her lips, the fiery imprint of her slap, and the tantalizing promise in her words. It was maddening, this dance of desire and duty. He knew he had to focus, to clear his mind and prepare for the dinner. There were important matters to discuss, yet his thoughts kept circling back to the twins.He stood up, his body tense with unresolved need, and made his way to his quarters. The room was sparse, almost utilitarian, a stark contrast to the opulence he had been accustomed to as a prince. He began to strip off his gear, his movements automatic and efficient, honed by years of military discipline. The familiar routine helped to ground him, to bring some semblance of order to his chaotic thoughts.As he changed into more casual attire, his mind wandered again to Astra. Sweet, gentle Astra who had endured so much. The thought of her suffering stirre
Passion
Arome woke up with a headache, this was the last time he was going to use his head to stop a punch. When Berth and Bertha and told him that he could use his head to smash a hole through walls, he had gotten the idea into his head that he had a skull that could smash through anything. Unfortunately he has had to learn his lessons the hard way, so no more stopping super powered punches with his head. He tried to get up, hit he immediately felt a weight on his right side, he turned to see that Astra had fallen asleep on his shoulder. He frowned, not because he was not happy about the situation, but because he could tell she was having a nightmare. The way she shook and whispered to herself, and the way her hands grabbed onto his suit.Instead of moving away he pulled her closer, his hands moving through her hair. It was silky smooth, and considering both sisters had locks of curly hair that fell in waves on their head, it was surprisingly easy to run his hands through those locks. Arome
Feelings
When Demetrius showed up with an unconscious Arome, Astra and the temple guard siblings felt their hearts jump into their throats.“What happened to him?” Astra asked, almost immediately a tendril of dark energy seemed to waft of her body, clinging to her form like the haze of a mirage. Almost instantly everyone around her felt a little bit sick, even Demetrius could not withstand the force of Astra’s power.“Calm down, the fool gave himself a concussion when he decided to use his head to stop a punch form a super that can turn her entire body to metal. He passed out on the way here. His power should have him back up and causing trouble as usual in a few hours. In the main time he needs rest, while the rest of us must prepare for the scenario of retaliation from the police captain and the mayor f the city.” Rowan said as he moved past everyone not even flinching from the feel of Astra’s dark matter power.“How can you be, okay?” Amina could not help but ask, a sheen of sweat covering
Mayor Akiko Zhang
Arome chuckled. The plot thicken I guess, seems the big boss heard I paid her brother a visit. Arome smiled underneath his helm, as it stands, he no longer needed any proof that the police captain, and his wife the mayor of San-Franmikyo had significant connections with Severance. But still Arome doubted Akiko Zhang was here to confess her sins. In fact, considering the way she was glaring at him, she wanted nothing more than to put a bullet through his head.“Where is my brother? What have you done with him?” she asked, her tone showing that she wanted nothing more than the answers she required.“The old man got away? Good for him. It doesn’t matter how good it looked or was furnished; a prison is still a prison. And I don’t think it’s fair you would lock the old man up when all he did was raise your psychotic sword wielding illegitimate child!” the atmosphere in the room went cold as Akiko’s eyes widened in shock. If they widened any wider, Arome was sure her eyes would pop out of
