Bab 197: Ch. 190 - Down Syndrome
Seeing the large back in front of her, Mirage's eyes widened in surprise after seeing that Syndrome was frozen in his tracks, his eyes containing the fear that only a despaired human should have.
"I-I-H-How-."
"What? Cat got your tongue? You didn't expect I'd find you here, didn't you?" Jin said with a large grin on his face, clearly finding joy in seeing the fear look on Syndrome's face.
"You're asking yourself, how did I find this place, right?" Jin continued while casually walking across the office while all the special soldiers that are under Syndrome's command are all frozen like a statue as if something or someone is holding them in their place.
"You know, your inventions are quite fascinating. If only we weren't in different paths, I would've recrui-." Jin sat on Syndrome's office chair before stopping right after mentioning about recruitment.
"....I could do that." Jin muttered to himself before looking at Syndrome with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Now I know what to do with you." Jin smiled before standing up and slowly approaching Syndrome, who started backing away out of fear while yelling at his soldiers.
"What are you idiots doing!? Protect me!" Syndrome said when he received no response, Syndrome realized that this is something that must be related to Jin.
Whatever Jin does to his people, then it is fully effective as Syndrome can't protect himself from Jin with just his cool gadgets. Because unlike the others, Syndrome didn't undergo harsh training on his body or mind.
Mainly because Syndrome thought that his mind is enough for him to conquer the world and get what he wants. In his eyes, his inventions could make people worship him. He can make this world a better world with nothing but his intelligence.
Something that no Supers can do, only him.
Unfortunately for Syndrome, he met Lucifer.
"No one's gonna save you." Jin spoke while slowly approaching Syndrome with heavy steps.
"G-get away from me!" Gulping his saliva hard, each step he hears from Jin, adds more fear to Syndrome.
"...M-Mirage! Help me!" Syndrome then saw that Mirage was behind Jin, looking at them with shock in her eyes.
Thinking about those years they were working together, Syndrome hopes that Mirage still harbors some good feelings for him and stops Lucifer from killing him.
Unfortunately for Syndrome, when Mirage heard Syndrome's plea, she quickly looked away, not wanting it to be associated with him out of fear that it would put a target on her back that would prompt for the devilish hero to make a move against her.
"....You..." Despair soon covered Syndrome's face after realizing that no one was there to help him.
"W-what do you want? Do you want money! I'll give all of them to you! I'm rich! I could give you anything! Including my inventions!" While Syndrome was desperately offering everything he had to Jin, the said person never once stopped in his tracks.
"Y-you're a hero, right? A hero never kills, just bring me to a prison! I'll obediently come with you!" Syndrome seemed to have made a realization and tried to use this against Jin, using psychology to save his own skin.
But did Jin stop?
Nope.
"A hero that never kills? I'm sorry but do you see me wearing an all black bat suit?" Jin chuckled at Syndrome's thinking.
"Huh?" Although Syndrome was in despair, he could still understand what Jin was saying, so he was quite confused about what he was talking about?
"Tsk, can't you have some humor?" Jin shook his head in disappointment before grabbing Syndrome's shoulders and teleporting away from the office, leaving Mirage alone.
"....Should I run away now?" Mirage whispered to herself before standing up and facing the door.
She then looked back at the frozen soldiers who are probably still under Jin's control before running away.
*Footsteps!*
***
"Stop stop stop! Please, spare me!" Meanwhile, Syndrome was panicking as he looked down on the mouth of the volcano, the heat of the lava slowly crawling on his skin.
"Don't move or I might accidentally drop you." Jin warned while holding on Syndrome's collar.
"...P-please." Syndrome gulped his saliva in fear, adhering to Jin's words and stopped moving, in hopes that he would be spared.
"You know, at first I thought about sparing you since you were betrayed by your own idol which led to you being this kind of guy but I noticed that in your mind, you thought that being a hero is just being cool, wearing capes, beating bad guys and stuff." Jin started monologuing, something he shouldn't do but who cares? It's not like he's in some kind of movie where he's portrayed as a villain.
"W-what are you talking about?" Hearing Jin talking about his painful past, Syndrome thought that Jin would somehow spare him out of pity, but such hopes were dashed when he heard the last sentence.
Jin is indeed right, back even when Syndrome was a child, he just thought that being a hero is about beating bad guys and wearing cool costumes while at it, not caring about saving lives and contributing to society.
"I'm talking about whether you're worthy of being spared or not. But from what I can see, your path to being an arms dealer is enough to judge your fate." Jin said and just as Syndrome was confused and about to ask about it, he felt Jin's fingers slipping on his collar.
"No! No! No!" Syndrome yelled out in fear as he tried to reach out to Jin to save himself but to no avail, as if his fingers were limp, he couldn't clutch on Jin's clothes or even his skin, as if something was blocking him from making contact with Jin.
"Nooo!" Before he knew it, Syndrome started free-falling towards the mouth of the active volcano.
Staying still, Jin watched as Syndrome fell into the lava which started burning him from inside-out.
"AHHH! HAAAAHH!! HOT! HOT! IT BURNS!" Syndrome starts madly thrashing around the lava as he tries to escape but to no avail, it seems like God has abandoned him.
"From today onward, there'll be no more Syndrome." Jin smiled to himself. You might be asking why he killed Syndrome instead of using him as a bridge that will cover the gap between the Government and the Supers but what's the use of following the plot? In Jin's eyes, both Syndrome and the Government held no value.
Especially since Supers aren't exactly supposed to ask permission from the Government just to save someone, right?
Only idiots follow such idiocy.
Right now, Jin's problem is the threat of the universal gods and the angels. As the Lucifer Morningstar, he bears such heavy responsibilty and he must recover his full strength as soon as possible.
"Now, what to do with this island?" Jin then eyed the large island that used to serve as Syndrome's secret base.
"...I know what to do." Jin smiled, however this smile doesn't contain happiness, instead it has a bit of sadism in it.
***
[We are now live here at Mount Hass, where a less than a hectare island fell on for some unknown reason. We don't know how this happened nor do we know who did it. But one thing for sure, this is the doing of a supervillain.]
Watching the news, Bob sighed and massaged his forehead. Thankfully, his wife is outside, buying some groceries or else he might receive another wave of discussion with her for watching the news about Supers again.
Ever since Bob was caught doing hero work behind her back, she became more strict on him to the point that Helen suggested to become the breadwinner instead of him.
Thankfully, Bob managed to talk some sense into her and retained his role as the family's breadwinner.
God knows how embarrassing it is for a man to rely on his wife in today's society. People would look down on him.
*Ding!*
"Coming!" Hearing the sound of the doorbell, Bob assumed that it must be the mailman.
However, when he opened the door, he was greeted by an old friend instead of the mailman.
"Lucius? What are you doing here? What if Helen sees you? And how did you even get out of your house? I thought you were in some kind of quarantine." Upon seeing Lucius, Bob quickly searched outside before sighing in relief after seeing no sign of his wife.
"I'm just here to catch up with a friend. It's been a month since we last saw each other." Lucius said before showing the plastic bag he's holding that contains several cans of beer.
"And besides, Helen wouldn't mind us as long as we're within her sight. Surely, she wouldn't restrict you for having a lil' bit of fun with a friend, right?" Lucius said and Bob finally gave up before letting him enter.
"So, mind telling me how you got here? Is your wife also not at home?" Bob asked curiously, wondering if Lucius used some kind of technique to convince his wife or she's just not at home at the moment.
"Nope. She kinda allowed me." Lucius replied with a smirk on his face, as if prompting Bob to ask him how he did it.
"How?" It didn't take long before Bob fell to his trap and asked.
"It's really simple." Lucius smiled and got closer to Bob's ear and whispered.
"I just showed her who's boss."
"Huh."
"I made her realize that I'm the man of the house during the night. You know what I'm talking about." Lucius said with a teasing smirk on his face.
"...Really?" Bob muttered to himself, understanding Lucius's words and pondered if he should do the same.

Bab 198: Ch. 191 - Pregnancy!
A few weeks have passed since the incident with Syndrome and it seems like his death has caused quite a stir in the underworld.
After all, despite having a crazy personality, he's still known as one of the most notorious arms dealers in the world, so his death is like a small single drop in a cup full of water, causing waves everywhere.
"I can't believe we actually inspired other heroes to come back out." Rapunzel was tiptoeing on the ground in fervor.
"Well, we kind of defied the only thing shackling them." Jin, who just got home after buying groceries with Tigress, managed to get back in time to witness this.
"He's right, though it got quite annoying as the government is now branding us as a group of terrorists. Though I don't think people will buy their lies anymore." Elsa also added in after Jin, stating her honest opinion on the matter.
"The government is probably thinking of changing their ways by now, I'm that they can see that the era of heroes is about to go back to the surface again." Jin said while putting down the groceries.
"Oh right, your phone's been ringing for the past 5 minutes earlier, Jin. I think it's someone important." Without deviating her eyes on the television, Rapunzel suddenly remembered something and quickly reminded Jin.
"I wonder who it is, thanks." Jin pondered to himself before walking towards the table where his Grapes phone resides.
Jin tried to find an Apple company in this world but only found a phone company called Grapes which is almost the exact same as Apple, so Jin guessed that Grapes is the counterpart of Apple from his previous world.
"Bob? Why's he calling me so early in the morning?" Jin scratched the back of his head before pressing the 'Call Back' function to call back Bob.
*Ring!*
*KaChak!*
"Jin! I have good news!" As soon as the phone rang, Bob quickly answered and spoke first.
"Calm down, big guy. What's the deal?" Jin chuckled, it is rare for Bob to be this happy after all, so he's quite curious.
"I'm gonna be a father of three! Helen's pregnant!" Bob continued with a shocking reveal, excitement can be heard seeping through his voice.
However, unknown to Bob, Jin is more excited than he is.
'Fuck yes! JackJack is finally here!' Jin almost cried by himself just by this revelation, though it is soon replaced with sadness as he knows that what's about to happen next will absorb the joy Bob is feeling today.
He's about to take his third unborn child. A child that gave him happiness for the second time this year.
'Sigh, I should take the child already before Bob could grow attached to it.' Jin said with a sad shake of his head.
"Why are you sad? Shouldn't you be happy for you friend?" Mavis popped out behind his left shoulder and asked curiously after seeing the look on Jin's face.
As a vampire, her hearings are quite loud, which can also be said the same to Tigress who also casts a curious look to Jin.
"....Bob's third child my other half." Jin revealed, making Tigress and Mavis froze in realization.
Elsa and Rapunzel, who were curious about what they were talking about were alps shocked at the revelation, obviously they know the reason why they're in this world and now that Jin's other half is his friend's third child, they were surprised.
"....I suggest we go there as soon as possible and take my other half before Bob and Helen could grow attachment to it, the more we delay the more painful they'll feel once the baby is gone." Jin said to them. Even though he already expected it as he already placed a mental command on Bob'sind to tell him about it once he discovers that Helen is pregnant.
The girls nodded their heads, agreeing to his thoughts.
"Let's go to their house." Jin said, obviously they'll sneak in there instead of using the usual way.
***
"What should we name our baby? Shouldn't we think about it now?" Helen asked while softly caressing her stomach, even though there's no bulge yet, but the pregnancy test having two lines says otherwise.
"I'm thinking of something like mixing our names, what do you think?" Bob held his chin and pondered, his eyes never leaving Helen's stomach, clearly excited on having a third child.
This is all thanks to his friend, Lucius who taught him how to become the dominant one in the relationship.
Now, not only he's the dominant one but he also got a price at the end. It's a win-win situation if you ask him.
"Boblen? It doesn't sound good, Helob? No, that also doesn't sound right. Let's just pick a good name, mixing our names doesn't produce anything good." Helen also thought the same however the moment she tried mixing their names, she finally relented and chose to pick a common name.
"How about Jack? Sounds average, like how we should be, right?" Bob said, and after receiving a nod of approval from Helen, he made a victory pose. Only a husband knows how satisfying it is for his wife to have the same agreement. Sometimes, it's always the wife who's always right.
"We should go and see a doctor now and file our report to the government, after today's incidents of heroes going back out in public, they became more strict and required us former heroes to write a report to them every week." Bob continued before sighing in defeat after explaining about the misfortune they have to endure.
"Yes, and it is all thanks to you and your friend!" Helen also grew grim after hearing this and quickly pushed the blame to her husband.
"What did I do? Didn't I already turn my back on it just for you?" Bob exasperatedly replied after being blamed.
However, Helen simply ignored his complaints and walked towards their room.
"I'll just change. Start the car." Helen said before closing the door of their room.
"Sigh, how come it became my fault?" Bob sighed in defeat before walking towards the garage with slumped shoulders.
"Hey, dad. What's for dinner?" Dash then appeared in front of him with a blur before asking.
"Dash, didn't your mother tell you to not use your powers inside the house and no, your mother hasn't made dinner yet so stay put and wait for us until we get back home."
"Get back home? Where are you guys going?" Hearing Bob's words, Dash was confused and quickly raised a question.
"It will be a surprise, so just wait for us." Bob said no more and quickly approached the garage to start the car while grabbing the car keys at the same time.
***
Inside the room, Helen was changing her garments when someone peeked on their window. Since their house doesn't have a second floor, it became easy to peek inside through the window and even though Helen closed the blinds before changing, there's still a small gap enough for Jin to peek inside.
'She's inside.' Jin whispered to himself after not staring at Helen's bubbly ass for a good minute straight.
'Ehem, let's focus on our goal.' Jin shook his head and lightly slapped his cheeks. Thankfully, he's alone and his women are hiding in another neighborhood in front of Parr's residence.
Jin then proceeded to close his eyes and use chi to scan Helen's body.
'There!' It didn't take long for Jin to scan the soul residing on Helen's tummy, which means that JackJack is finally existing.
'But how do I take it? I have to get in contact with her to push the soul out of her stomach.' Jin was pondering to himself when he decided to risk it.
Quickly teleporting inside, Jin was surprised that Helen was reacting to his sudden presence inside her room, which means she still has some kind of danger sense alarming her.
'That's awesome.' Jin said to himself and decided to make a move now. He can't show his face to her or else he would have to erase her memory and replace it, which is quite trouble some.
So he simply used his telekinesis to lock herself in place.
"Wh-?!" Just as Helen wanted to scream for help after noticing that she can't move her body anymore, she sudnely stopped when she felt something pressing her lower back before disappearing.
At the same time, the restrain that she's feeling is also gone, so she quickly turned around just to see nothing. Even the curtains weren't moved as if she was alone all this time.
'...Weird, is it some kind of symptom when a child is a super like the parent? But I didn't feel this when I was carrying Violet or Dash.' Helen asked to herself before deciding to pursue this matter later.
She's excited and can't wait share the news of her pregnancy to her other children, friends and also her parents.
***
'That was close. Thankfully I reacted fast enough to lock her in place.' Jin wiped off the sweat on his forehead before raising his hand, where a darkish red orb floats above his palm.
The orb looks small like a tennis ball but it you're in Jin's position, you'll be able to clearly feel the incredible power residing inside the soul.
Jin even estimated that if JackJack is given time to grow, he'd become a Multiversal Being and now that he's going to merge with it, which means he'll become that Multiversal Being and possibly beyond.
