Marvel's Superman Chapter 1
Advertisement
A heavy fog enveloped every corner of the city, and occasionally sharp warning from the Air-Defense radar sirens struck the dark sky.
In today's time, the Axis Powers, headed by the Germans, fought inextricably with the Allied Powers.
Every day, a news story or news will popup about the war casualties and the international situation.
From Europe to Asia, from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The flames of war were everywhere, and bullets were being fired at every second.
No one knows what one will come first, hope to end this war or destruction of the whole world.
In Luke's opinion, everything happening was just terrible!
"If only I had travelled to any other point of time in history. It would have been nice to enter the world a few decades from now. I would have gone to Hollywood, written a few scripts, made a few movies, and would have become the richest person in the world. Enjoying my life at its fullest."
Located on the corner of the street was an empty tavern.
Luke held his head in his hands, put his legs on the table, and sighed at his fate.
"Or, they could have just given me a normal world. The U.S. economy after World War II was unprecedentedly prosperous. If I seized the opportunity, it wouldn't have been difficult to earn my first pot of gold. It's just… Why am I in the Marvel Universe?"
Luke sighed and unfolded that day's newspaper. The most striking headline was the meeting between President Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin in Tehran.
The Allies wanted to open a second battlefield in Europe to defeat the Germans as soon as possible.
It's just that what attracted his attention was not the direction of the world war, but the lace scandal in the corner of the page ——

Howard Stark and Hollywood's "Goddess of Love" Rita Hayworth were photographed by reporters entering and exiting the Waldorf Astoria Hotel together.
There was also an obvious black and white photo below this headline.
"Stark Industries..."
Twenty-year-old, Luke now had a wry smile on his face.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Howard Stark was just a smart arms tycoon sitting on wealth.
But for Luke, the other party had another critical identity.
He was the father of the future Iron Man, Tony Stark.
The existence of Howard Stark allowed Luke to confirm that he really did transmigrate in the Marvel Universe.
And now, he was standing at the beginning of everything.
The beginning of the timeline before all significant events were about to unfold!
This was both good news and bad news for him.
The good news was that Luke wouldn't have to see Thanos, the chief of the Universe Family Planning Department, snap his finger because Luke will be a hundred years old by that time and may not even be alive on that fateful day.
The bad news was that he wouldn't get the chance to meet Chief Coulson or go to Queens and find Spider-Man.
Let alone the Avengers; he didn't even know where Nick Fury will be in the coming years.
Luke never expected that he would start from the United States in the context of World War II.
And somehow became a naive guy on the streets of Brooklyn.
"It's a headache to think about it."
Luke covered his face with the newspaper, feeling depressed over his condition.
He had travelled into this world for almost five or six years and had already accepted the new identity of 'Luke Cavill'.
He came to know that his family were Irish immigrants; however, his father died in gang fights, and his mother died of tuberculosis. The only good thing that came out of this was that there was no little sister to take care of. That would have been a headache."

Luke's only relative was the uncle who used to "paint the house" for people when he was young.
Paint the house.
This is a black word.
Luke's uncle is not a craftsman who painted the house walls—this sentence he used was referring to murder.
Because it's hard not to splash blood on the wall when dealing with certain troubles, gangsters were used to using the term "cleaning the house" after doing the dirty work.
Luke's uncle was such a man who did dirty work for the gang-when he was young.
He used to be an army veteran, and later to support his family, he began to "clean up houses" for the gang.
Because of his decisiveness and clean hands, he had never left any clues and was always appreciated by the senior gangsters.
In the years since his parents passed away, Luke also relied on his uncle's assistance to avoid starving to death.
"The plot armour that I haven't received for so long..."
Luke felt even more concerned when he thought of the cheats that every transmigrator must-have.
First of all.
The reason why he could cross over,
It was because of a very nonsense reason.
It was due to a game, Golden Kryptonite!
That's right; at that time, Luke was addicted to fighting games that had superheroes as the central character.
Moreover, Golden Kryptonite was very addictive, trying to use a rude and straightforward way to change the main character's fate.
One afternoon, he couldn't hold back for a while and ended up purchasing the luxurious gift pack in the game-which contained an SSS-level card, the Superman, and multiple selection templates of Kryptonite.
It can be said that if we take contents of the gift pack in the picture, it was extremely cost-effective!
As soon as he received the gift package, Luke opened it to check its contents. However, the next time he opened his eyes, he was in the Marvel Universe.

Lineage Saga (Kingdom Building Fantasy)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The continent of Erdenia is in flux, nations large and small move to swallow their neighbors. Roving bands of marauders pillage the countryside, and the seas are choked with piracy. Against this backdrop upon the central island of Syroneika exists the Mercan League, an alliance of city states ruled by the Archon from his seat in the Capital, Merlabria. Yet all is not well beneath the surface. The Archon’s health is waning, while the House of Mercan appears on the verge of conflict. Both princes vie for the Archonship, with the aristocracy close behind looking to settle old scores. In the immediate west the Althai Federation is in a state of civil war, the conflict spilling over the border into the League, while nobles’ squabble over petty slights. In this time of growing conflict, the Archon has summoned the warlord of the southern frontier, bulwark against the horrors of the dark forest, and former Grand Scholar of the court. Behind the scenes pieces are in play, and the Scholar possesses numerous enemies, many still envious of his meteoric rise to power. A simple trip to the capital may be more than it appears. However, the branches of fate are fickle things, a single encounter could change the course of history. Or perhaps that is simply the will of fate, and nothing has changed at all, who could know? Could the meeting between a simple slave and a warlord truly be fate’s bough? And if so, where could that lead?

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.
