"Hearing the voice of Louis filled with anger, Dr. Alice on the other end of the phone fell silent for a few seconds...
"That, today''s weather is really good! Willow, I won''t bother you anymore, I have a romantic date today, bye~"
"If you dare to hang up the phone, I will immediately fly to your lab and crush your precious ''Fido'' full character max break series figurines into lumps of mud!"
"No!! Willow, you can''t do that!! That''s simply too cruel!!!" Dr. Alice, whose attempt to bluff failed, let out a desperate wail.
Thus, under the threat of Louis, Dr. Alice had no choice but to reveal all about the equipment she designed which could detect the physical conditions of super-powered individuals (mainly Louis). This device not only can intuitively detect the time and extent of Louis using his superpowers through data, but it can also observe any changes in Louis''s body at any time, such as an increase or decrease in chest or buttocks size, or even male instinctive reactions (of course, Dr. Alice did not mention this point).
"Wait...you, when did you put this chip inside my body!!? And your behavior is already considered a severe perversion, right?!" The thought of being constantly peeping by some pervert made Louis feel a chill.
"Of course it was that fiery night~ Willow, don''t you remember that night when we intertwined with sweat and madness? Afterwards, you said you would be responsible for me..." An extremely flirtatious and somewhat disappointed voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Crack...". Suppressing the impulse to instantly crush the mobile phone, Louis forced himself to calm down.
"That night was clearly because you insisted on imitating characters from anime shows by holding a bonfire party, resulting in setting fire to your lab!! If I hadn''t saved you, you''d be nothing but ashes by now! And...what I meant by responsibility was to help rebuild your lab, so please stop saying those ambiguous things that lead to misunderstandings!" Louis muttered coldly.
Seemingly sensing that Louis''s emotions had reached their limit, the originally lazy and flirtatious voice on the other end suddenly became very upright.
"Willow, I won''t joke with you anymore, because I have something very important to tell you." Dr. Alice said seriously.
"..."
Louis responded.
"Although I don''t want to tell you, according to the data results obtained on my side, if you continue to use your superpowers...probably within half a year, your body will completely turn into a girl." Dr. Alice''s voice sounded regretful.
"..." Louis froze, though he knew this day would come, hearing this specific date still made him feel incredibly heavy-hearted.
"Half a year, huh..." Louis murmured.
"Yes, and it''s not just about hair, breasts, thighs changing, but physiologically, completely turning into a pure woman. But...Willow, don''t be too sad, because I''m almost successful." Dr. Alice first spoke with some regret, then excitedly consoled.
"!!? Success? What success? Is it a way to suppress the side effects of my superpowers? A way to prevent me from turning into a woman?" Louis asked with expectation, as if grabbing onto a lifeline.
"Huh? Of course not, but rather my latest invention allowing girls to experience happiness and even give birth to babies - the ultimate invention "Lily Love One"! Hehehe, by that time, Willow, if you become a girl and can''t find someone to marry, I might generously marry you and let you have my baby!" The voice on the other end first sounded utterly shocked, then quickly turned very flirtatious again.
Alice! Lisa! Fil! I''ve decided, before I turn into a woman, I must kill you first!! Louis felt countless "wells" representing anger appear on his forehead instantly.
"Ah, I found you a new job without having to be a superhero, just go to the Hero Association''s newly founded Hero Academy for classes, sounds easy right? But it''s still under negotiation, I''ll call you once it''s finalized, see ya! Mua~bye!" Seemingly realizing she caused trouble again, the doctor hurriedly kissed the phone before hanging up.
New job? Hero Academy? Am I going to be a teacher?
After hanging up the phone, Louis stood silently on the empty street looking at the disconnected phone for a while, then stepped towards his home.
"I''m back." Although knowing there was no one at home, Louis still habitually called out lightly, then changed shoes and prepared to walk towards the living room.
Just the next second...
"Ah! Welcome back!!" A voice belonging to a girl who sounded fairly capable but overall somewhat silly rang out in what should have been an empty room.
Louis paused for a second, then suddenly helplessly covered his forehead and walked towards the dark living room, snapping on the lights.
"Li Shineng, how did you get into my house again..."
The woman sitting cross-legged on the sofa wearing hot shorts revealing snowy legs and an overly loose white T-shirt that showed hints of black lace underwear, with her single ponytail, looked up at Louis as she played with her phone.
This woman is neither Louis''s sister nor younger sister, much less a lover with an indescribable relationship...accurately speaking, the fiery-dressed woman in front has the honorable identity of a police officer.
"Not allowed to call me directly, Little XiXi! Call me Aunt Shineng or...or Mommy Shineng is fine too...anyway, I promised Master to take good care of you..." Li Shineng, while fully focused on her phone and tapping away, obviously felt somewhat embarrassed halfway through her words and scratched her nose high and proud.
"...". Louis didn''t respond, in fact, Louis thought this stupid woman was beyond saving.
Li Shineng, a national level one police officer, currently affiliated with the Municipal Public Security Bureau of S City. The master she refers to is Louis''s father Liu Mo who disappeared three years ago after the emergence of monsters, and his whereabouts are still unknown. As for Li Shineng, who admires the legendary policeman Liu Mo and is also a super-uncle fan, her lifelong wish is to marry her predecessor and idol.
Unfortunately, Liu Mo disappeared during an investigation of monsters due to their appearance in one action three years ago. Since then, Li Shineng voluntarily took on the task of taking care of Liu Mo''s only remaining relative, Louis.
But because when Louis heard the news of his father''s disappearance and awakened his superpowers three years ago, he set out alone to travel in search of his father...from defeating the monster at his doorstep, to hearing about a more powerful monster in the neighboring neighborhood and instantly destroying it, to discovering an extremely powerful monster in the neighboring city, and finally an almost invincible monster in a neighboring country...gradually, as Louis traveled around the world in search of his father and even became known as the light of the world, the savior of humanity, and recovered nearly one-fifth of human territory, three years have passed.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
Three years have passed, Louis not only hasn''t found his father, but even the steel-like muscles he was once proud of have disappeared, transforming him into his current state of being neither male nor female...even worse, when Louis returned home, there was that tearful woman hugging him and saying she would replace Liu Mo to take care of him and become his mother, namely the woman now playing with her phone on the couch, who is only three years older than the eighteen-year-old Louis.
Recalling the scene of their first meeting, Louis still shivers.
That tightly embracing woman, wiping her nose and tears all over him and shouting loudly "Wah wah wah, I didn''t know Master only had a son, who would have thought he hid such a cute daughter! Don''t be afraid, from now on I am your mother, Mother will take care of you, and I will definitely find you a good future!" was the foolish woman.
Taking off the dirty clothes from the train engine, Louis skillfully opened the fridge and started preparing dinner for himself and the foolish woman, but while Louis was cooking, he saw the foolish woman suddenly sit up from the couch, tense and shouting at her phone.
"Metal God, don''t die! Please don''t die! Run! Metal God, run!"
Louis didn''t see it, but Louis knew the foolish woman was playing a mobile game called "Hero Glory", a type of MOBA game where heroes can be controlled in 5v5 battles, each character based on real registered superheroes from the Hero Association, with "Metal God" being ranked 13th among S-class heroes known for absolute defense capabilities.
"Run, run, run! Metal God, keep going, you must dodge that skill!" Louis, busy preparing dinner in the kitchen, heard continuous shouts from the living room.
Though Louis hadn''t played "Hero Glory", he understood MOBA games. Judging by the sound, it seemed like the foolish woman and her teammates were ganked by the enemy.
Indeed, a few seconds later, a voice filled with sadness was heard from the previously excited Li Shineng.
"Oh no...he''s dead."
"Metal God dies, so what? You escape and it''s fine, besides, I never noticed how caring you are about your teammates." Though this foolish woman was truly foolish, hearing her dejected tone, Louis couldn''t help but comfort her.
However...as soon as Louis''s comforting words were spoken, a whining "Wah wah..." sound came from the living room.
Surprisingly, Louis looked up to see the foolish woman sitting on the sofa, looking at him with a pouting face seeking comfort, saying...
"Wah wah wah...I''m Metal God."
"..."
Forget it, she''s as hopeless as that weirdo Alice.
A bit later, just as Louis was about to finish dinner, happy footsteps were heard from the living room, followed by a soft figure hugging him from behind, pressing her chest against his back while continuously shouting "Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!"
"Let go!" This fool doesn''t see I''m serving food? If it spills, tonight you''ll only eat dirt!
"I won!! Haha, Little XiXi, I win! I said it, these random people can''t possibly be a match for my Metal God!" The Li Shineng behind Louis let go, raising her phone while proudly lifting her chin, apparently seeking praise from Louis.
Even though this childish police officer who wants to be his mother is hopeless, Louis still gently patted her head like soothing a child.
"What rank are you at? To be so excited over a win?" Louis praised while curiously asking. (Rank is a division of strength in "Hero Glory", the lowest being Bronze, the highest being Strongest King)
"Eh? Little XiXi, what''s rank? Isn''t this game only available in AI mode?" Hearing Louis''s question, Li Shineng looked puzzled, curiously asking back.
"..."
Sister, you''ve won.
Speaking of the "Little XiXi" title used by the foolish woman, Louis has protested numerous times. Although Louis proved to Li Shineng that he is indeed the son of her master and not the daughter, instead of making her realize propriety between men and women, it made her even more intimate...of course, this intimacy isn''t romantic, but rather Li Shineng treats Louis like her own flesh and blood.
Louis feels uncomfortable with the behavior of this foolish woman, but since Louis knows how kind, gentle, strong, and brave this woman is, he accepts all her actions.
Of course, the most crucial point is...even pets grow attached over time, let alone a person. Although Li Shineng hadn''t met Louis before, Louis often heard stories about this justice-filled yet clumsy woman from his dad three years ago, so to honor his dad, Louis cannot let this righteous but not-so-capable woman encounter danger in a world filled with monsters and villains.
Louis doesn''t understand why his dad cares so much about this foolish woman...could it be that this forty-something uncle actually likes this woman nearly twenty years younger? Or...is this woman actually his dad''s illegitimate child? Hmm...if mom were alive, she would surely dismember dad.
Dinner was soon placed on the table. After urging the foolish woman, who had just finished playing her phone, to wash her hands, Louis watched her sneakily turn on the TV and happily sit in the center for better viewing, shaking his head helplessly.
"Wow!! Little XiXi, your cooking skills are getting better and better! In the future, you''ll definitely make a great wife and mother!" The foolish woman tasted Louis''s dish, then chewed with delight, closing her eyes and giggling.
"Shut up and eat, then go home after dinner." She thinks she can become a good wife and mother? Her whole family must be good wives and mothers, no, wait, this woman is too foolish to be a good wife or mother.
"Don''t want to! I already told them I wouldn''t go home today! After all, how could a mother leave her child alone at home?" Li Shineng pouted.
"And which mother would wear such revealing clothes in front of her blood-and-fire young son!" Louis, seeing Li Shineng''s cool outfit, mercilessly criticized.
"Eh?? It''s because it''s...hot today!! And Little XiXi doesn''t look like a blood-and-fire youth...rather, quite (softly) cute and alluring..." Li Shineng looked at her outfit, then nervously held her bowl while eating, secretly glancing at Louis''s serious face that somehow looked cuter and whispered.
"What did you say!? C...cute and alluring?? Louis suspected he heard wrong, he, a true iron-blooded man, was called cute and alluring??
"Nothing!! Little XiXi, my dear Little XiXi! Let me stay here, please!! Oh, you don''t know how pitiful I was today, I finally got a chance to go on patrol, but before we left, we heard it was saved by a superhero...sigh, it seems like since superheroes appeared, our police department can all retire now."
To emphasize and validate Li Shineng''s words, the TV just turned on showing the news of the superpowered criminal case that happened in the west district of S City this afternoon.
"At 3 PM local time, a train derailment occurred in the west district''s seaside port area of S City. Fortunately, there were no casualties. According to interviews with victims on site, the train derailment was caused by a superpowered individual with antisocial tendencies. Luckily, there were several superheroes present, and through their combined efforts, they defeated the criminal and controlled the derailed train, preventing the situation from escalating uncontrollably. Below, let us connect with one of the superheroes present...beep...beep...
Hello, my name is Li Lushan! But I''m not a superhero yet, I''ve just awakened my powers, and when the criminal appeared on the train, I fainted shortly after...I merely helped clean the dust with tissue paper when I woke up...the real hero who saved everyone should be...a girl, yes, a short-haired cute girl!
Thank you for the cooperation from the tissue paper hero, now let''s connect with another certified C-level superhero number 372 from the Hero Association, Underwear Man...beep...beep...
Hello everyone! I am Superhero Underwear Man! Honestly, it was extremely dangerous on the train today, if it weren''t for Uncle me stepping up, relying on my superpowers, through content not complying with relevant laws and regulations, not displayed...
Thank you for the cooperation from Underwear Man, now let''s connect with the last one, reportedly the only witness to the criminal being subdued, Guagua, the class monitor of Qingyang Kindergarten''s senior class!
Big sister!!!! Guagua wants to meet you again!!!! But Guagua will be strong, Guagua won''t cry, because mom said true superheroes don''t seek rewards, true superheroes sacrifice their lives to save others! So Guagua will always look up to you as a goal, Guagua will definitely become a super hero, become like big sister you, a true superhero!!!!
The news ended, but Louis still stared blankly at the TV screen now broadcasting other content, unable to speak for a long time.
"Wah wah wah...Little XiXi, that superhero who saved an entire train of people is truly great, she saved so many people but didn''t even leave her name...I used to always think that superheroes stole the honors that rightfully belonged to the police, but now I see, I was truly selfish! Wah!!" Li Shineng suddenly cried pitifully out of self-reproach.
But...these words, heard by Louis, indeed made him feel equally guilty.
Ah, so annoying...decided not to be a superhero anymore, swore not to use superpowers anymore, but after hearing the words of that little girl named Guagua, why does the unwavering belief start to waver again.
Please...stop finding me to be a superhero...Louis bit his lips, furrowing his brows and muttering in his heart.
At this moment, the ringtone "Muscles! Muscles! I love muscles, great muscles!" suddenly rang out. Louis took out his phone, looked at the incoming information, then nodded to Li Shineng who was wiping her tears, and went into his bedroom.
"Willow, the new job has been settled! Enroll as a student in Hero Academy, secretly protect a girl named Su Congshuang, sounds easy right?" Dr. Alice''s voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Su Congshuang? Sounds familiar..." Louis frowned.
"Of course it does! One of the biggest shareholders of the Hero Association, Su Weisheng''s only beloved daughter! Haven''t we seen her frequently in newspapers before! Anyway, you absolutely can''t fall in love with her, and you can''t let her fall in love with you either! Got it!"
