American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 20 A honey trap?! A counter-strategy!

"Tomie is taking a nap, let's keep our voices down." Xiao Xian said in a serious tone. Peter, a guy who uses flattery and warmth, would never say something as ungentlemanly as telling Tomie not to take a nap.

"Oh, is that so? Well then, let's keep our voices down so as not to disturb Ms. Tomie." Upon hearing this, Peter did not suggest waking Tomie up, and instead began to speak in a very considerate manner.

"Is there anything else?" Seeing that no missions had appeared, Xiao Xian curled his lips. Trash. This guy calls himself a superhero? He doesn't even get as many missions as monsters. What's the use of him?

"Oh, I'm fine, but Aunt Mei seems to need to talk to you. She wants you to come to my house in ten minutes. Here's the key, just come then." Peter didn't see Tomie and wasn't interested in chatting with Xiao Xian any further, so he cut straight to the point and handed Xiao Xian a key.

"Huh? Go straight to your house?" Xiao Xian took the keys with some confusion. What kind of plot event had he triggered? He didn't seem to have talked to Aunt Mei much, and he hadn't even raised her affection level yet. He probably hadn't completed the "Tomie's Super Charm" quest.

"Yes, she told me herself. I remember she went alone, and it seemed like she had something important to do." Peter nodded. Although his honey trap was a bit crude, it wasn't a big problem. As long as Xiao Xian was a normal, hot-blooded man, he couldn't possibly resist falling for it.

"Okay, fine." Anyway, he has super regeneration, so as long as it doesn't involve the soul or anything, it's not a problem to call him immortal. Let him be a little ethereal. Xiao Xian took the key and agreed. If he could trigger the mission, he would consider it a win.

The moment Xiao Xian took the key, a "ding" sounded in his mind. At that moment, Xiao Xian almost shed tears. It was great! He had almost thought he could only get quests from monsters, but he finally got a quest from a superhero.

Ding~ Mission: Honey Trap?! A counter-strategy! Triggered.

Mission Name: A Beauty Trap?! A Counter-Strategy!

Task Description: Peter realizes that conventional methods won't work on winning you over. Completely captivated by Tomie's charm, he decides to use a honey trap! He'll use Aunt May to drive a wedge between you and Tomie! You, however, can turn the tables on her, not only avoiding lowering Tomie's affection level but actually using this opportunity to increase it.

Mission requirements: Enter Peter's house, make your choice, thwart Peter's honey trap, and make Tomie's affection for you increase instead of decrease!

Mission Reward: Spider-Man - Absorption Ability

Spider-Man - Adhesion Ability: By mentally controlling the interatomic interaction forces at molecular boundaries (such as static electricity), he can attach his body (especially his hands and feet) to the surface of objects for rapid movement.

Thankfully, it wasn't the first version with barbs on his hands. When Xiao Xian saw the mission reward, he was both disappointed and somewhat relieved. Compared to such fancy abilities, Xiao Xian actually preferred the simple and straightforward power of spider strength.

However, this adsorption capacity isn't limited to adsorption alone. Perhaps, like regeneration, it can be used for many other purposes. In a sense, generating static electricity through mental energy is quite impressive; imagine generating static electricity at the enemy's heart!

"That's settled then. I'm going to school now. I've made plans to hang out with some classmates tonight, so I probably won't be going home today." Peter emphasized the part about not going home today, then closed the door and left.

"Is it alright to send it to my aunt?"

Xiao Xian tossed the keys in his hand. At that moment, Tomie, who had been eavesdropping by the door the whole time, came out immediately upon hearing the door close. Her face was flushed, and she looked extremely excited.

"You're planning to go to his house, right?"

"Shall we go together?" If there were no mission, Xiao Xian would definitely choose to go alone, but now the mission requires him to increase Tomie's favorability. Xiao Xian thought it would be good to bring Tomie along to show his upright and gentlemanly side, and his ability to remain unmoved by temptation.

"No, no, they said you have to go alone, it wouldn't be right for me to go." Tomie shook her head repeatedly and quickly refused. Her top-grade Wagyu beef had the potential to evolve into a god-level, super-ultimate, supreme, supreme Wagyu beef, so she wouldn't stop her.

If Xiao Xian can be won over by Aunt Mei, then he will perfectly fulfill all of Tomie's expectations for her prey, and become the most perfect prey in Tomie's mind.

If Xiao Xian could kill her completely next, that would be even better; it would be the most perfect ending that every Tomie dreams of.

Having lived through so many lifetimes, being killed and resurrected countless times, Tomie no longer longed to continue living. Hunting various prey was merely a way to console herself in this long, boring, and painful life. If she could be killed completely by such a top-tier prey, thus ending her fate, it would be the best outcome for her.

Rather, for a perfect prey like Xiao Xian, the most thorough method should be used to kill her. Otherwise, Tomie cannot imagine how high her threshold for pleasure would be raised after experiencing such supreme pleasure as Xiao Xian, and how boring and painful her long life would be afterward.

Those prey that once thrilled her were all so boring and uninteresting compared to Xiao Xian. And for the next few decades, hundreds, tens of thousands of years, or even forever, she would never encounter a perfect prey like Xiao Xian again. After all, in the thousands of years since she became aware of consciousness, apart from Xiao Xian, Tomie had never seen or even heard of such a perfect prey.

The thought of that bleak future filled Tomie with fear, but the thought of that pleasure made her tremble with excitement. The most perfect prey, the most beautiful dream, the highest and most supreme pleasure that Tomie had pursued countless times was about to be achieved. Even at the cost of endless suffering for the rest of her life, Tomie was determined to swallow this supreme pleasure whole.

Just as other men swallowed Tomie, a poison coated in sugar, Tomie also had to swallow Xiao Xian, a poison coated in sugar, even knowing that he was poisonous.

"You..." Xiao Xian looked at the trembling Tomie and suddenly realized that Tomie wasn't human, but a monster. Normal human values ​​meant absolutely nothing to her. Would the answer he chose based on normal human thinking actually increase Tomie's favorability?

Also, it seems like there's no need to choose, Tomie's favorability rating is already off the charts.

"What's wrong?" Tomie looked at Xiao Xian with a puzzled expression. Weren't we discussing whether Xiao Xian should go to Aunt Mei's house alone? Why did we suddenly bring her up?

"Why don't you go change your pants first?" Xiao Xian said, looking at Tomie, whose face was flushed with excitement.

"Then I'll go take a shower and change my clothes." Tomie realized what was going on and, without any embarrassment, went back to her room to get her clothes before going to the bathroom to shower. Before going in, she didn't forget to say to Xiao Xian.

"Actually, I am a very traditional Japanese woman. In traditional Japanese culture, husbands can have multiple wives. And generally only very powerful nobles can afford to marry multiple wives. So in my opinion, this is a very attractive thing. Even if Xiao Xian has something going on with other girls, it will not lower my opinion of you, Xiao Xian."

Now it's confirmed. Monsters' values ​​are indeed different from normal people's. Is this a tradition?

Looking at Tomie, who suddenly walked with a brisk pace and had a rosy face, Xiao Xian's lips twitched slightly. Tomie's hobby was rather peculiar.

I forgot to set the time.
