Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

"Mom, I'm going out for a bit."

As Kishimoto Megumi, with her expressionless and somewhat dull face, passed by.

Zhao Chen lowered his sunglasses and said, "Wait for me here."

Behind the telephone pole, Kishimoto Megumi, fully armed, pulled down her mask and stared blankly at her receding figure, muttering, "Um, was that really me...?"

"...Yuzuru-sama, Yuzuru-sama?"

Just as Kishimoto Megumi came to her senses and panicked at not being able to find Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen suddenly reappeared.

Startled by Zhao Chen's sudden appearance, Kishimoto Megumi leaned against the wall, covering her mouth, and said, "Yuzuru-sama?"

"Have you finished watching? If you're done, let's go."

Zhao Chen shook the slightly damp enhanced suit in his hand, then tossed it to Kishimoto Megumi with disdain.

Having fulfilled her wish, Kishimoto Megumi hugged her enhanced suit. She turned her head and took one last look at 'her' home, then turned back and smiled. In that instant, her whole demeanor brightened, as if the gloom had turned into sunshine.

That puts an end to all the troubles here.

The two hailed a taxi on the street and returned to their apartment before dark.

No sooner had Zhao Chen opened the door than Kishimoto Megumi suddenly grabbed his waist.

"Huh? What's wrong!?"

"...Thank you, Master."

Kishimoto Megumi, pressing her face against Zhao Chen's back, felt a sense of security she had never experienced before.

As if she were about to immerse herself in this feeling, Kishimoto Megumi pushed Zhao Chen into the entrance hall.

She gently hooked the door shut with her foot.

Kishimoto Megumi moved from behind to the front, nestled against Zhao Chen's chest, and gazed at him affectionately with watery eyes, saying, "Thank you, Yuzuru-sama."

"Looking back now, I realize that I have lived in my mother's shadow all my life."

"It's like being a puppet on a string, without its own heart, soul, or will."

"I always do whatever my mother tells me to do..."

"Study hard, just to get into a good school, then find a good job, and finally find a good man to marry... and have children."

“I hate being confined by all these rules and regulations by my mother.”

"When I see myself looking so dazed and silly, I realize I'm no longer that family's child, and that mother is no longer my mother. I feel incredibly happy and joyful!"

"I genuinely feel sorry for that version of myself, but that's all."

"So what? Are you planning to turn the tables now?"

Zhao Chen gestured with his eyes to Kishimoto Megumi's bold move. This girl was actually provoking him with a weapon!?

After expressing her long-suppressed emotions, Kishimoto Megumi suddenly stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Zhao Chen's lips.

Her cheeks flushed instantly, and Kishimoto Megumi, blushing and bowing her head shyly, said, "I love you, Master."

"From now on, whatever you want to do to me, you can..."

Looking down, I saw Kishimoto Megumi unbutton her coat, unzip it, revealing that indescribable snow-white scene, and she struck a charming pose as if she were ready to be picked.

Zhao Chen, with a cold expression, didn't even show any respect.

Hey, woman.

Zhao Chen said he had seen plenty of such mere seduction techniques.

With a hiss, Zhao Chen zipped up Kishimoto Megumi's zipper and then flicked her forehead.

"It's great to see that you have so much energy to think about all those random things."

"Yuzuru...sama?"

With a very kind smile, Zhao Chen put his hands on Kishimoto Megumi's shoulders and said, "Since you have so much energy, let's just get started."

"Start...what?"

Kishimoto Megumi, intimidated by Zhao Chen's kind smile, instantly had her estrogen levels turn into cholesterol.

The scene shifts to the city center, more than ten kilometers away from the apartment.

Inside a high-end gym.

Kishimoto Megumi stood outside the door, dumbfounded, staring blankly at the passionate scene inside.

The intense masculine hormones, the splattering sweat, and those sharply defined, sexy, and muscular muscles make you want to shout—this is Sparta!!

"Welcome to XXX Gym, both of you."

The customer service representative led the two people into the gym with a smile.

After strolling around the gym, Kishimoto Megumi was almost suffocated by the overwhelming male hormones there, and she couldn't help but reach out and tug at Zhao Chen's clothes.

"Lord Yuzuru... what are we doing here?"

"Of course it's for you to get intensive training."

Without turning his head, Zhao Chen handed the money to the smiling customer service lady, and then received a black and gold VIP membership card that had been prepared in advance, along with a small piece of paper with a phone number written on it.

The meaning of this little note is self-evident.

Zhao Chen was deeply troubled by this.

Sigh~ You know, when someone is handsome, they get so much trouble, and you can't shake them off.

Zhao Chen found a female coach to provide close guidance to Kishimoto Megumi. His purpose in doing so was to help her get back into form before the next mission, so that she wouldn't just be a useless pretty face in the future.

As the old saying goes: A beautiful appearance is a dime a dozen, but an interesting soul is one in a million.

Zhao Chen only agreed with the first part of the statement; he had something to say about the second part.

What makes a soul interesting?

Isn't it through learning, practice, and reflection that you fill in your own gaps and then showcase your strengths and beauty that others find you interesting?

Therefore, Zhao Chen decided that Kishimoto Megumi couldn't rely solely on her looks; she also needed some skills and abilities!

So for the next five days, Kishimoto Megumi spent her time going back and forth between the gym and her apartment.

Today, Zhao Chen realized it was the day the Black Ball mission would resume, so he stopped taking Kishimoto Megumi to the gym.

"Put it on, my friend."

Five days of intensive training did not significantly change Kishimoto Megumi's physique.

However, the muscles and mermaid lines on her limbs and lower abdomen have become more noticeable.

Kishimoto Megumi, who thought she was going to the gym today, walked out of her room with a backpack on her back and wearing a tight-fitting workout outfit. But Zhao Chen, who was walking towards her, tossed the enhanced suit to her.

"Lord Yuzuru, what is this?"

"We're not going to the gym today. I'll teach you how to use this enhancement suit."

"Ok."

After these few days, Kishimoto Megumi has figured out someone's temperament.

As long as you go along with him, everything will be fine.

After Kishimoto Megumi returned to her room and changed into her enhanced suit, Zhao Chen took her away from the apartment and went to a nearby abandoned construction site.

After setting up a barrier to drive away idlers (who had paid money), all the homeless people here were driven away.

Zhao Chen led Kishimoto Megumi to a pile of I-beams and pointed at them, saying, "Move them."

"Move it? This!?"

Looking at the pile of hundreds or thousands of tons of I-beams in front of him, Kishimoto Megumi turned pale.

Are you kidding me? Can a person lift this thing?

"Yuzuru-sama...you must be joking. How could I possibly lift this thing?"

"Who has time to joke with you? Hurry up and move it!"

Under Zhao Chen's harsh words, Kishimoto Megumi pouted and reluctantly grabbed an I-beam, then forcefully lifted it upwards.

“Wow… Yeah!”

Using every ounce of her strength, Kishimoto Megumi complained as she lifted it, "How can anyone lift something this heavy by hand? Come on... wait a minute? I lifted it!?"

Upon opening her eyes, Kishimoto Megumi, who found the steel bar in her hand to be surprisingly light, was astonished to discover that she, a woman with no strength, had actually lifted the I-beam that weighed over a hundred pounds and was absolutely impossible for a human to lift!

Chapter 261 Zhao Chen: Stop the car, turn off the engine, driver's license, thank you for your cooperation!

Watching Kishimoto Megumi happily waving around the I-beams like toys.

Zhao Chen said, "Everyone, sit down. It's standard procedure. Don't be silly. Everything is as expected."

"Haha! That's awesome! My strength has suddenly increased!" "Look, Yuzuru-sama, I can lift it up vertically!"

A cute-looking girl with bulging muscles held up a steel bar that was over ten meters long with one hand and waved it around as if showing off.

This scene is absolutely terrifying!

"Alright, alright, I know, stop playing around and start the next test." Hearing Zhao Chen's urging, Kishimoto Megumi hurriedly threw down the steel bar in her hand and ran over.
