NOVEL NEXT Chapter 5: Rage.
[Ultimate Awakening Completed!]
Jack saw the Interface blinking in front of him, but it made him even angrier.
''GRAH! It's your fault! Why didn't you give me the power to protect her better!'' Jack started hitting the blue Interface screen, but it didn't do anything, except make him look very stupid in the eyes of passersby's.
[Rage Meter: 5%]
Jack grabbed his chest tightly. ''It hurts!'' He cried out.
He remembers his wife... and his soon-to-be-born daughter... and the happiness they could have had...
Everything is lost.
Jack is lost...
''I want... I want to kill!'' Jack's eyes weren't grey or white anymore, they were fully black with red pupils.
''KILL!'' Jack roared, he stood up from the ground. ''Kill!''
He sees the citizens looking at the burning building in front of them with countless expressions.
They knew that the couple living there was happy.
''I can't believe that the husband killed her.'' One of the neighbors said.
''To think that such a monster lived next door.'' A female neighbor said, she used to be good friends with Sophia, but she rarely communicated with Jack.
''Poor Sophia...''
Jack hearing the conversation around him made him angrier.
''GRAAAAAAAAH!'' He again roared in anger.
People around him flinched and they started retreating from the yelling man next to them.
Jack's previous handsome look was long gone, he looked like a beast.
His black and red eyes scanned everyone around him.
Everyone who saw his eyes paled in fear.
Suddenly Jack's body started turning into a color of red...
''KYAA!'' Finally the passersby's noticed that he isn't here with good intentions, they started running away.
...But they were too late.
[Rageful Spirit!!!!]
''GRAAAAAAAAAAAH!'' Jack roared and the energy which covered his body left his body and covered the whole neighborhood in the color of red.
''KYAAAAAAA....'' People around him screamed, but they were soon turned into ashes.
*CRACKKKKKKKKKKK*
*CRASHHHHH*
The surrounding area turned into ashes... no one was left alive.
The buildings got destroyed... the families... the men... the women... the children... all turned into ashes.
Only a huge crater remained in the neighborhood.
Jack looked at the burnt house in the distance, not even walls remained, only a bunch of ashes remained.
Tears started again falling from the corner of his eyes... but this time it was in the color of red.
[Rage Meter: 8%]
''RAAH!'' Jack roared and started walking out of the neighborhood.
He wants to get rid of his pain... He clutched his chest, but the painful feeling never left.
Even getting stabbed a thousand times would be nothing compared to this.
The people close to the neighborhood looked curiously and paled after they saw the entire neighborhood disappearing.
''CALL THE HEROES!''
Citizens started panicking and quickly Police arrived at the scene with few heroes present.
They were about to enter the area... but then they saw a black-haired man walking slowly towards them.
The Police Officers took their guns from their holsters, but their guns weren't ordinary guns.
Instead, it was made of a special Superpower, which makes the bullets even deadlier.
4 Heroes were present, they looked at the upcoming man warily.
Jack stopped walking once he was only 100 meters from the Heroes.
''HALT! You are under arrest!'' A Hero with a fully red outfit and yellow stripes on the sides yelled with a heroic tone, he was 4-Star Hero - Red Fury.
Next to him, a female Hero with a perfect hourglass body and long blond hair stood with her chest pumped up. She was wearing a yellow-colored outfit which perfectly showed her curves. She was 4-Star Hero - Blond Saintess.
Next to her, a male hero with the muscular body which almost ripped the outfit was standing with powerful momentum. He had a sharp jawline and grey eyes with short black hair. He was 5-Star Hero - Muscle Pain.
Next to him stood a black-skinned young man. He looked like he was around 18 or 19. His outfit was dark blue with black-colored gloves. He was 3-Star Hero - Dark Savior.
Jack looked at them with only one expression.
Rage.
''Heroes?'' Jack asked.
''That's right! Surrender and you won't get hurt!'' Red Fury yelled.
''Heroes... HAHAHAHAHA!'' Jack then burst in laughter.
The 4 Heroes flinched while looking with grim faces towards the black-haired man.
''What is so funny?!'' Blond Saintess screamed.
Jack stopped laughing and glared with his black and red eyes towards the heroes.
''You are.''
''How dare you make fun of us?!'' Blond Saintess roared and rushed towards Jack.
''Blond Saintess, Don't!'' Red Fury yelled, but it was too late.
''Take this!'' Blond Saintess roared and her fist turned into a color of white.
[Purity Fist!]
She unleashed her punch filled with her superpower.
*SMACK*
The Fist contacted Jack's face which made him fly backward a few hundred meters.
Blond Saintess stood calmly at her spot. ''Not so tough anymore.'' She scoffed while looking with disdain towards the knocked-out-looking man in the distance.
The 3 Heroes walked next to her.
Red Fury looked at her in anger and said. ''That was very reckless.''
Blond Saintess rolled her eyes. ''So what, our job is done here.''
They were about to start walking towards Jack's body...
But then the area Jack turned into a color of red.
''Something is wrong.'' Red Fury said all of them stopped walking.
Muscle Pain looked at the scene with narrowed eyes, he doesn't understand why, but he has a really bad feeling.
''Hahahaha...'' They heard creepy laughter and saw Jack standing up without any injuries.
But the Purity Fist cleaned his face and they could finally see his face.
Red Fury widened his eyes and yelled. ''It is Jack Wrathelm, the new Villain!''
Muscle Pain snorted. ''So this is the so-called wife-killer... Doesn't look much... How did it feel killing your defenseless pregnant wife?''
Jack stopped moving after hearing his voice.
''Don't...'' He muttered quietly.
''Hmm? What is it, wife killer?'' Muscle Pain said mockingly.
''DON'T YOU DARE TO TALK ABOUT HER, YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!'' Jack roared and the area around him instantly turned into fiery red color.
''Did you have to make him mad?'' Red Fury asked with a slightly pale face.
Muscle Pain grinned and said. ''The angrier he gets, easier to defeat him.''
''True, he obviously can't control his emotions, which makes it easy to defeat him.'' Dark Savior agreed.
''Let's do this already, I have a date later.'' Blond Saintess said with urgency.
''Fine, let's surround him.'' Red Fury said with a slightly pained face.
The 4 heroes surrounded Jack's figure.
Jack felt 4 different, but strong energies trying to lock him in place.
But he feels ticklish... Their power is nothing...
''Let's do this!'' Blond Saintess roared and did the first move.
[Purifying Pain!]
Her whole body was filled with the color of white.
She put her hands forward which instantly shot out a white-colored beam.
Red Fury's body started cracking in red electricity, he put his hands on the ground.
[Electric Red!]
The ground below Jack instantly turned into an electric sea.
Muscle Pain didn't move a muscle. His power is a physical type, and it won't do any good for him to make any moves, because he needs to be in close proximity of his opponent.
Dark Savior is the same.
*CRASHH*
The white energy and the lighting destroyed the area around Jack.
A huge cloud of dust appeared, and the figure of Jack disappeared...
''Is he dead?'' Blond Saintess asked.
''Be careful!'' Red Fury reminded.
''It's alright, there is no way he surv...'' Before the Blond Saintess could finish her sentence... suddenly figure appeared in front of him.
''FUCK!!'' Blond Saintess cursed, she was about to turn her body into white light...
But then Jack touched her face.
[Rage Pain]
''AGHHGHGHHGHGHG!'' Blond Saintess started twitching in extreme pain, her previous beautiful face was long gone, her skin started melting off while her skull was covered in red color.
The 3 heroes looked with horror-filled face as the Blond Saintess' face melted away.
Blond Saintess fell down to the ground...
Dead...
''Blond Saintess, NO!'' Red Fury roared with angry and sad-looking face.
Jack turned his face towards the other Heroes.
''Do you feel anger? How does it feel?'' Jack asked.
''BASTARD!'' Red Fury roared and was about to rush forwards.
But Muscle Pain put his hand on his shoulder which stopped his momentum completely.
''He is strong... 3-Moon Villain rating was big error, he is at least 6-Moon Villain...'' Muscle Pain said solemnly.
While they had their conversation...
Jack looked at the screens above their heads.
[Anger Meter: Red Fury - 28% - He wants to kill you for killing his childhood crush]
[Anger Meter: Muscle Pain - 0% - Couldn't care less about the death of Blond Saintess]
[Anger Meter: Dark Savior - 8% - Hates you for being villain]
Jack snorted, he took a look towards his.
[Rage Meter: 11% - You hate everything]
Jack could barely think normally, he doesn't understand why he got this power.
He only remembers the pain and anger.
He feels the anger making him more powerful...
And for some reason... The moment the Red Fury's anger spiked... He could feel that he became stronger.
It wasn't only because his anger that he became stronger... It was also because the anger of others....
