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

A/N: Just like I had mentioned previously my story will go on at the current pace. If this is slow for you then I am sorry but I won't be rushing anything...
---------------------------------------------
[POV Reo]
As soon as I walked out of the building I flew towards Kindred Hospital. Hah…!! Nat sent road directions but who uses roads when they can fly? Well, dates are an exception!!
It only took me a couple of minutes to arrive at Kindred Hospital. I didn't waste any time and entered the hospital. I found something unusual going on… there were way too many police officers crawling here.
I casted a notice-me-not on myself and grabbed a police officer. Nobody even bothered to look in our direction. Before the police officer could do anything stupid and forfeit his life, I dived into his mind.
Oh… I have to say that Ross doesn't do anything half-heartedly. So, he had informed the local police that Jennifer Walters was a dangerous criminal and they were on their way to capture her.
The guy won't have any brain damage since I didn't stay inside his mind for too long, and I only checked his recent memories. I Obliviated the guy and sent him on his way after telling him that everything was fine.
I also got Jennifer Walters's room number from the guy's head. Thankfully none of these guys have reported back to Ross that Bruce Banner was here. Hehehe!! Since I am already here, it is my duty to make Ross unable to find Jennifer's room.
Without wasting anymore time I headed straight towards Jennifer Walters's room. While I was on my way towards Jennifer's room I felt several vehicles and two helicopters entered my sensory range.
Looks like Ross is here… let him run around for now. I arrived in front of Jennifer's Room, I already knew that two people were inside there. The police weren't being subtle anymore as six officers were roaming down the hall.
I pointed my finger towards the gates and casted notice-me-not, muggle repelling charms, and some privacy wards. Without making a sound I entered the room and found Jennifer was laying on the bed… she was awake but she looked kind of weak and Bruce Banner was sitting beside her bed cutting fruits for her.
I deactivated the notice-me-not charm on myself and appeared out of thin air. Both Jennifer and Banner were shocked and Banner shot out of his chair. "Ah… sorry, it wasn't my intention to scare both of you" I said in a neutral tone.

"Leviathan…" Jennifer stuttered out in fear. Banner got in front of Jennifer in a manner of guarding her.
"Trust me you don't want to do this" Banner said and kept staring at me.
"I don't know if it would mean anything or not but I come in peace" I said in a cheerful tone and raised my hand to make a peace sign.
Both Banner and Jennifer were stunned speechless. Yes, this must be because of my shocking personality…
[POV Rumi]
"Come! Let's dance!!" I said and lunged towards the blue Abomination with my right fist pulled back and the Abomination also did the same, he lunged towards me while pulling his right fist back.
I remembered to hold back my power, I didn't want to turn him into a bloody mist before I could have my fun. So, I decided to use 50% strength of my base form, I decided not to use either Armament Haki or my Overdrive mode from the get-go. Let's check the waters first…
Both of our fists collided while we were in mid-air. A shockwave erupted from the collision of our fists. Seems like my guess was right… 50% of my strength in my base form is equal to his full power. Both of us landed on the ground and rushed towards each other once again.
His huge fist shot towards my head, I tilted my head and his attack completely missed me. I closed the gap between us and my left hand shot towards his mid-section. Thankfully, the Abomination has lost his genitals or I would have hated engaging with him in close combat.
My left hand landed on his mid-section and the beast staggered back… I didn't waste any time put my feet on his knee to raise myself… after all, he was almost 10 feet tall. The monster was surprised when I used his knee as a stepping stone and he was even more shocked when my right elbow smashed on his chin!
The monster's head shot back and he landed on the ground on his back like a sack of potatoes while my landing was completely graceful. The monster got on his feet and shook his head to clear the daze… my Abomination looked at me with hatred in his eyes and roared once again.
"Come on big guy… show me what you got" I said in a mocking tone. The monster roared once again and lunged at me.

I decided to meet him head-on and met his punch with mine, another shockwave erupted from the collision but this time the shockwave was much louder and we ended up cracking all the glass windows around us. I heard several screams and saw that the reporters were still there.
Well, there is no cure for stupidity… the most dangerous disease for humans. The Abomination didn't back out this time and threw another punch, I stopped his punch his mine again and another shockwave erupted from our fists. Yes! I am loving this!!
Neither of us backed out and we kept throwing punches at each other… "Hahaha…!!" I laughed out loudly unable to stop myself… this was the thrill I have been missing. I know I am holding back a lot but the thrill is still there… I can only spar with Reo and when I do that, I know there is no risk… yes, I hit him and he hits me but both of us deliberately ignore important places.
I was having a lot of sun fun but the Abomination's moves started to turn sluggish… No!! This can't be happening! I was just starting to have fun! I screamed inside my mind and for the first time his punch lacked power and when his fist met with mine… he was blown back and howled in pain.
"No! Come on, fight me! Damn it!" I screamed in frustration and kicked him into the nearby building when he wasn't able to return the attack.
Even though my disappointment was immeasurable, I needed to calm down. "Hah" I released a sigh and grabbed a sniper bullet out of thin air.
I looked towards the direction from where the bullet came from and threw it in that direction with my full power. The road beneath me cracked and caved in… the whole top part of the building was blown away when the bullet hit the building.
I sensed that the Abomination was moving once again and a huge chunk of concrete came flying towards me. I swatted the concrete block using my full power and it blew it to bits. The Abomination roared once again and threw a humvee at me next. I jumped away from the place and the humvee crashed down.
The Abomination looked at me and huffed. He saw a police car and ripped it apart from the middle. The Abomination picked up both parts and like they were boxing gloves… a good plan but this time I wasn't holding back.
He started to run in my direction and I decided to wait for him this time. He threw a punch towards me but this time I didn't even bother to dodge and allowed him to hit me… but not to take any chances I activated Armament Haki. His car-gloved hand landed on my upper body and I didn't even budge from where I was standing.
This seemed to shock the monster, he pulled back his fist and stared at his own fist with a confused look on his face. He huffed once again and threw another punch… but this time I decided to retaliate… I deactivated my Armament Haki and met his car-gloved punch with mine.
Something happened that the monster wasn't expecting at all. His right side of the body was completely gone along with the building behind him creating a building-sized canyon in the middle of Los Angeles.
The Abomination dropped on the ground with a wet plop but he wasn't dead though… I could see that he was already healing. I calmly walked behind the monster and gently placed my hands around his head. I pulled him up from the ground and fixed my grip on his head.
I placed my foot on his back and started to pull back his head gently but gradually I increased my power. He was no longer a human so I had no problems doing this… As far as I was concerned, I was putting down a mad monster. The monster started to trash and howl in pain but I didn't let go… I kept pulling his head back.
A loud snap was heard and with that, my grip tightened on his head. My fingers dug into his eyes and grabbed the corner of his eyes sockets for a better grip. Slowly his head started to get ripped from his body… a small yank and his head was completely separated from his body now. I took a look at the head in my hands and tossed it away like garbage...

Re:The Worst System Leveling Turned Me Into A Zombie
Before I reached Lvl. 100, they called me Death God Hei. But when I broke the limit, the System punished me. It cursed me to become this monster. I woke up as a Lvl. 0 again. Dying only brings me back to a save point now. But I don't go back until I die twice. First I suffer as a human, then I hunger as a zombie. The worst part is...I still have to watch when that thing takes over my corpse. I call it the Gray. I can't do anything even when it's hunting down those I'm trying to save. Sometimes, I wonder. When I level, I swear I can hear a voice speaking to me. This thing...can it think? It's like Re:zero crossed with SAO, Solo Leveling, and Tokyo Ghoul Re:The Worst System is a dark, 1st person timeloop story where the main character is slowly driven insane by his ability to respawn at a save point. However, each time he levels, there's a possibility that the next time he dies, the zombie inside him will become too powerful for anyone to stop. So he has to level up a harem...ahem, others, to fight for him against the System. Oftentimes, Hei will get trapped in repeating death loops which are truly terrifying. You've been warned...please don't read if you're not willing to see the darkness all the way through. The light on the other side may be a long ways away...I'll be trying to post on Thurs/Sundays, but honestly, depending on how I'm feeling, chapters could come out at some wonky times. If you want to support the story, read ahead, or bribe me to write more, I'd appreciate you checking out my Patreon, but this story will be updated frequently for free anyways.

I'm Sure It'll be Fine! ...right?
We live to die, and die to live again. This Cycle continues, neither to Begin nor End. Ever Beginning, never to End, we come to the story of our Unusual Friend. The Gods are as varied and unique as the mortals that worship them. Some are kind, others are fluffy, and (given the nature of the multiverse) a few are Eldrich Abominations of Unspeakable Horror. But that's fine, those few tend to mind their own business... At least until an Eldrich Abomination (an interdimensional cosmic slime-mold specifically) gets itself devoured by a Lich during a ritual to obtain Godhood... Especially because anyone, even a Lich, who's willing to eat an ENTIRE COSMIC SLIME-MOLD for any reason, even godhood, is undoubtedly a madman...who's now set his unsightly gaze upon replacing (likely by devouring) the Godess of Magic herself! She could probably use some help...if only to avoid touching the slimy Lichgod directly. Also, the Eldrich Gods are protesting these events in their usual manner...by trying to destroy all of Creation.
