《A Mutant’s Ascension》A Mutant's Ascension

[POV Reo]
When Emma finally finished her tale, the room was completely silent. Eric and Raven didn't know how to react to what they have just heard… they were angry, sad, and scared… all at the same time. I didn't need to use Legilimency to know that. Emma was just trying to glare a hole in the table… she was gritting her teeth while her fists were clenched.
"So, how do we find these U-Men and Sublime?" I spoke up breaking the atmosphere. Hearing me everyone was finally pulled out of their pity party. I know how annoying Sublime can be and the sooner I deal with him the better…
In the comics, he died twice but he was able to return… I have no idea how the hell I am going to use 'Hakai' on bacteria… I might need to use a fucking microscope for that. Arkea was easily killed… if nothing else then I will just use Fiendfyre or Crucio him into insanity… though I don't think that Crucio will affect a bacteria…
"There is no way to find them… we can only follow trails… nothing more nothing else" Emma said while shaking her head. This could be a problem… from what I have heard, I am pretty sure that Sublime is working in Trask Headquarters. I can find him easily enough. I think I should deal with him first after all he will run away like a coward as soon as he finds out that I am after him or he will simply go into hiding.
I am no fool and I know, recognizing his body won't work, after all, he can change bodies whenever he wants, and with all these endless amounts of humans, he won't be having any shortage. I need a spell to track a single cell… Sublime is actually a bacteria so he is a single cell being. Momo might know some spell, after all, she is the one among us with the greatest amount of spell knowledge.
"But I still know a broker who will be able to give the information we need" Emma suddenly spoke up pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Oh, are you sure that he will be able you give you the information?" I asked her in a skeptical tone, after all, she had been hiding for all these years, and even after all these satellites surveillance, I didn't find out about the U-Men. Sublime is a very intelligent being he must keep all the documents and files in physical form… after all, someone like him would definitely want to stay out of digital surveillance.

"Yes, for the right amount of money, of course" Emma replied.
"Ok, then let's go and meet your informant" I said in a cheerful tone and got up from the chair.
Eric and Raven didn't say anything. As soon as I left the room I pulled out my phone and texted Momo asking her about the spell. Emma kept curiously looking at my phone.
'I have read something like that in some ancient texts. Wait for a bit let me get the tome' Momo replied after a minute. I was completely fine with it after all I wasn't going after Sublime right now… first I needed to meet Emma's informant.
"So, how do you contact your informant?" I asked Emma curiously.
"It's quite simple but we would need to go to Buenos Aires, Argentina. Though I am quite curious about how we will go there" Emma asked me with a smirk on her face. She still has a lot to learn if she thinks she can get information out of me like that.
"You don't have to worry about that" I said and smirked, seeing that her plan didn't work she decided to use her powers… I felt several assaults on my mental barriers. Emma immediately frowned in confusion when her attack didn't work.
Without waiting for a moment I immediately used Legilimency on her and I wasn't gentle this time. I assaulted her mind like a battering ram, Emma fell to her knees and shrieked slightly. I found that she just wanted to know if she could trust me or not… why in the name of God does every telepathic meta-human want to read your mind to know if they can trust you or not?
I was finally out of her mind and Emma was still on the floor grasping her head with her hands. Hearing the shriek both Eric and Raven came out of Eric's office…
"What happened here?" Raven asked me while her eyes were on Emma.
"She wanted to have a look at my mind, obviously, I didn't like that" I said while shrugging dismissively. Raven didn't look happy but there was nothing she could do… Eric didn't say anything and returned to his office. Raven also followed his lead and entered his office…
I looked down at Emma who was finally getting up from the floor "Don't try that again or you won't like the consequences" I said to her in a warning tone. The next time anyone tries I will let them in my head so that they could play Solo Levelling.

I have never been to Argentina but I know someone who has been there. I texted Nemuri to come and meet me. Emma didn't say anything anymore and silently stood at the side… I have been a gentleman with her until she decided that it was a good idea to poke around my head. Only after a few minutes, Nemuri Flash Stepped beside me.
"So, what's the urgent matter you wanted to talk about?" Nemuri asked curiously looking over at Emma.
"Where are Ororo and Natasha? You didn't ask them to wait, did you?" I asked her because I will be taking Nemuri with me and she is much more knowledgeable than me about things around the world.
"Oh, I sent them away when you texted me" Nemuri said with a frown on her face but soon a perverted grin appeared on her face.
"Hello there… my name is Nemuri Kayama, call me Nemuri, please" Nemuri cooed while gliding towards Emma and extended her hand towards Emma. Emma was slightly gobsmacked and didn't know how to react to that.
"Um… Emma Frost" Emma nervously said and took Nemuri's hands and shook it.
"Nemuri have you been to Buenos Aires before?" I asked Nemuri who happily nodded her head.
"Of course, I own a lot of things there… I also own the biggest hotels there" Nemuri said with a proud look and puffed out her chest… the buttons in front of her shirt definitely felt the stress but somehow they held on.
"Ok, take us there. Apparate to some safe place will you?" I reminded Nemuri who pouted and nodded her head after all I didn't want to appear right in the middle of the road or inside someone's shower… that would be really awkward and I wouldn't put it past Nemuri to do that.
Nemuri was still holding Emma's hand and as soon as I placed my hand on her shoulder we disappeared with a loud crack. The three of us appeared on a roof and Emma immediately dropped to her knees. Thankfully, she had a strong stomach and didn't empty it.
"Please don't do that again" Emma said while breathing heavily.
"Oh, don't worry, first time is always rough… next time I will be gentle" Nemuri cooed in a soothing manner. At first, Emma didn't understand what Nemuri meant but soon understanding dawned on her and she blushed brightly. It was quite common for Nemuri, so I didn't even react to her perverted joke.
"Shut up you pervert!!" Emma stuttered out a scream.
"Where are we?" I asked Nemuri trying to change the topic, after all, I didn't want to hear Nemuri proudly proclaim that she was a Super Pervert.
"I am not a Pervert! I am a Super Pervert!!" Nemuri declared with a proud look. Her fists were on her hips and her nose was pointing towards the sky in haughtiness while her already brilliant chest was puffed out. Apparently, she ignored me and went along with her declaration, I just gave her a blank look.
"That's isn't something you should be proud of!!" Emma screamed out in shame. Emma is quite old and Nemuri is still able to rile her up like that… I can't even imagine what kind of tortures Ororo has to go through.
Nemuri scoffed in annoyance "You are still a kid… grow up" Nemuri said with a haughty look on her face.
"I am not a kid!!" Emma screamed out loud and fumed in anger. Her face was almost purple in rage but her anger increased when Nemuri ignored her and turned towards me.
"We are currently on the top of Park Tower, so where are we going from here" Nemuri said looking towards me. Hearing Nemuri, Emma finally calmed down.
"Then it's good… my contact is also here" Emma spoke up forgetting her anger.
"Your contact… it wouldn't be Catalina, right?" Nemuri asked Emma in a mocking tone.
Emma was taken aback "How did you know?" Emma stuttered out.
"Of course I would know, this is my hotel and I know everything that goes on in here" Nemuri said with a proud look.
"So, who is this Catalina?" I decided to butt in once again.
"She is the head of special services… if you get my drift. She runs her own information syndicate through her business of special services. For enough money she will get you any kind of information" Nemuri explained… yes, I obviously got the drift of what she meant by special services.
Paid Escorts, though I have to say the idea is quite ingenious but before I could say anything I received a text from Momo explaining to me about the spell. It was a spell used to mark cancer cells inside a human body. The spell was used in the early years when cancer showed up for the first time… the spell was stopped being used in the later years because healers discovered better methods…

Raul The Reality-Reshaper
Raul Medrano had believed he was a normal human his entire life until the day he turned 21. The night before his 21st birthday he had a strange dream and acquired something dubbed a "system" that swore it would help him adjust to his status as a "higher being" and a "reality reshaper". And so began Raul's life as an immensely powerful adventurer who has and uses a variety of powers to change his world, and the grander omniverse for the better. This story features an overpowered protagonist who meets and faces off against other overpowered entities, but it begins with the protagonist in a small world where he swiftly becomes one of the big dogs so conflict, in the beginning, isn't going to be especially challenging. This story also mixes elements from my own distinct setting, the multiverse in which "A Solitary God" takes place, with elements from the settings created by people over on the NSFW CYOA (Choose your own adventure) subreddit, such as TroyxPage, and specific CYOAs such as "Goddess of Mankind" and "Love Azathoth" into one distinct, wholly original story. When relevant I'll post links to the CYOAs a chapter references in the author's notes section. Image credit: I got the image for the cover from Pixabay. This story was posted originally on ScribbleHub and will continue to be posted both there and elsewhere.
