American comics: Starting with replicating Superman's talent

Chapter 28 Do you want to know my secret?

Beneath the quiet, secluded woods.

A man and a woman leaned against a big tree, looking like a couple stealing away their affections.

The moonlight seemed to be their audience, dispelling the darkness for them, as if some scene that readers would love to see was about to unfold in the next second.

but.

Although he talks a lot of nonsense.

But Talia didn't know what to do next.

She joined the Assassin's Guild at the age of four and continued her training until she was twenty. Apart from training to become a qualified member of the organization, she had nothing else to do in her life.

As for dating?

In short, her father is Lei Xiaogu, the great leader of the assassins.

The guys in the league would rather avoid her than see her.

But when she met Gino's amused gaze, the woman steeled herself and, mimicking the poses in those cheesy idol dramas, slowly pressed her red lips to her lips.

She had to lull this guy into a false sense of security to prepare for her next move.

"Hmm."

Talia used her clumsy kissing skills, trying to resist the hands that were wandering all over her body. She opened her eyes a crack, and when she saw Gino with his eyes closed, the woman sneered inwardly.

In the end, he's still just an eighteen-year-old kid who can't resist the allure of women.

In short, I was still too young.

With that thought in mind, Talia quietly withdrew her right hand and gently removed the hairpin from her head.

She's not someone you can easily take advantage of.

Now is the time for Gino to pay the price!

"Whoosh!"

Talia brandished her emerald green hairpin, which shot towards Gino's eyes like a green lightning bolt.

A flash of hatred crossed the woman's eyes; she refused to believe that the eyes, being the most vulnerable part of the human body, were impenetrable.

It should be noted that this hairpin is made of rare and precious iron. Due to its scarcity, the Assassin's Guild also has a limited number in stock. Talia secretly sneaked in and stole a piece when she was seventeen years old, and it was then crafted into the hairpin she has today.

"Snapped!"

The sharp hairpin suddenly pierced Gino's eye socket.

"what!"

The other person seemed to be in great pain, suddenly shoving Talia away, clutching their cheek as if injured, and crying out in agony, "My eyes! Damn woman, what have you done to me?"

Seeing Gino kneeling on the ground as if he had been hurt, Talia felt a surge of satisfaction.

The woman was overjoyed: "It really worked!"

Suppressing her excitement, Talia wiped the liquid from the corner of her mouth, straightened her back, and resumed her aloof and mature demeanor.

With her long hair, now free of the hairpins, cascading down her shoulders, Talia crossed her arms and walked slowly toward Gino like a noble queen.

"snort."

Talia snorted coldly, staring at Gino with disgust, remembering how he had touched and pinched her body.

A strange sensation surged through her body again. Talia pursed her lips, suppressing the burning desire in her heart. With a cold smile, she raised her long, slender left leg and placed it on Gino's shoulder, looking down at him like a noble queen, and said, "Do you know where you went wrong, brat?"

"Where did I go wrong?" Gino asked, his voice trembling as if in great pain.

"You shouldn't talk so much to women!" Talia's face darkened, her emerald green eyes staring intently at Gino, as she twisted her left leg and stepped on Gino's shoulder.

But the feel underfoot was terrible; it felt like I was stepping on a block of steel.

"Now, you can die."

Talia held the hairpin and gestured towards Gino's head, seemingly considering where to strike for the best revenge.

"But before that, can you tell me why you want that stone?"

Talia bent down, and the thought that everything that had happened today was because of that stone made her desperately want to know the truth, like a cat scratching at its heart.

She is so curious.

"That stone."

Gino, with his head bowed, spoke in a low voice.

Talia couldn't see Gino's expression clearly, nor could she hear what he was muttering.

She frowned slightly, wary of a sudden attack, and leaned down slightly, asking in a questioning tone, "What's wrong with that rock?"

Gino covered his face and slowly said, "The secret of that stone."

Next second,

Just as Talia was listening intently to Gino, the boy suddenly looked up.

Golden hair fluttered, revealing a handsome profile. As Gino removed his hands from his face, a perfectly intact face came into Talia's view.

That indifferent smile and chilling gaze instantly struck Talia like a thunderbolt, leaving her frozen in place.

"Aba, Aba..."

Talia couldn't describe how she felt.

Shocked, astonished, incredulous.

Gino's eye socket, which should have been punctured, was completely intact, without even a red mark.

When Talia saw the mocking smile on Gino's face as he slowly stood up, the woman immediately realized what was happening, and her surprise instantly transformed into a raging, intense anger.

This guy is playing me for a fool!

[Negative emotions from Talia: +100, +100...]

A series of system announcements echoed in Gino's mind.

Standing up, Gino resembled a wicked devil, staring at Talia whose chest was heaving violently, and let out a mocking laugh: "You look pretty angry, don't you?"

"You devil!" Talia spat out the words through gritted teeth, clearly showing that her hatred for Gino had reached the point of being utterly vengeful.

"I want you dead!"

Talia completely lost her composure. Enraged, she brandished the hairpin in her hand and charged at Gino haphazardly, intending to stab him in the throat.

"Perhaps you should learn to respect the strong."

Gino resumed his expressionless demeanor, casually raising his arm and slapping Talia across the face as she charged at him.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound echoed through the dense forest as Talia's kite, its string broken, lay fallen in the cold woods.

"puff!"

The woman spat out a mouthful of blood, and a deeper sense of despair and fear began to grow in her heart.

The woman stared blankly at the blood-stained mud.

My brain is working at lightning speed.

Its terrifying power, unparalleled speed, and now an indestructible body.

She couldn't imagine how she could defeat this monster!

For the first time, an absurd idea sprouted in Talia's mind.

Can her father, the leader of the Assassin's Guild, the great and omnipotent Rashomon, the owner of the Pool of Salu, defeat this humanoid monster?

Gino was unaware of Talia's thoughts at the moment; he was standing still, enjoying the surge in his points once again.

Slapping this woman earned him another thousand points in just a few minutes; it was a worthwhile deal.

As he thought this, Gino slowly walked towards Talia, intending to slap her a few more times to humiliate her.

What? Gentlemanly manners? What is that? Gino Luther is a Sigma man who won't be played by women.

Not far away at this moment,

Moonlight mingled with the trees, casting dappled shadows on the leaves.

Under the flickering moonlight, Talia's beautiful face was slightly swollen, her long hair was disheveled and fell across her face, and her emerald green eyes were filled with panic as she watched the figure approach.

Mistakenly believing that Gino was going to kill her, Talia no longer cared about her so-called composure or the honor of the Assassin's Guild. She screamed in terror, staring at Gino in panic, and backed away, supporting herself with her hands: "Don't kill me! I am Lei Xiaogu's daughter! The next successor of the Assassin's Guild."

"I am ready to serve you!"

"Smack."

The figure that had been walking towards Talia slowly stopped in place. Gino's azure eyes were fixed on Talia, a half-smile on his face: "Serve me?"
