My System & My Academy of Superpowers

Finally, Satomi left. From the distance, Satoru was slowly walking towards Naomi and Ryan who were still holding hands. 

"Finally…. She left." Naomi let out a sigh of relief as her grip around Ryan's hand loosened. 

"What is up with your mother, Naomi? Why was she-"

"Ah…. Do not pay attention to her. She is just like that. Actually, she is worse."

"Oh… but what made her like that? I can not think Satoru-San married your mother considering both of their personalities."

"Yes… you are right…. She is the worst woman and the worst mother I have ever seen."

"And you…. Have done a great job by messing your first meeting with Satomi. Now how will she ever agree to both of you huh?" Satoru interrupted.

"Dad!" Naomi seemed to quickly get the point.

"Satoru-San. Nice to meet you," Ryan did a polite bow of 45 degrees.

"Nice to meet you too, Ryan-Kun. But I fear, your meeting with Satomi might not be so nice after all..."

"I guess. After how she was treating me and Naomi. It was clear that she was annoyed by my presence."

"Do not sweat about that stuff. She is just like that. She is a…. How can I say…. A little bit off an egoistic person, a prideful person, full of rude attitude, and a twisted personality."

Ryan was dumbfounded when Satoru called his own wife by so many names at once!

"And the worst mother ever," Naomi added.

"Yeah, that too," Satoru giggled a little, "But…. no matter how she is…. No matter what she is… she is still my one and only wife. I would not entertain any disrespect or insult of my family from an outsider." He quickly changed his expressions and glared at Ryan.

'Crap. Is it pointed at me? Why do I feel his intense glare trying to penetrate my heart?'

"I- Uh- right. I should not have-"

"Dad, Ryan is not an outsider. Please do not refer to him as an outsider."

"Huh? When did I refer to Ryan as an outsider? Haha, you are not an outsider, Ryan, if you were, you would probably have been dead by now." he let out a short laugh.

'What the hell is up with this twisted family?' 

"I can clearly see that you are not an outsider by the way you are so intimidated with my daughter." his eyes fell on Ryan's hand which was holding Noami's hand firmly.

"Eh? No, I was just…. Ugh…." Ryan loosened his grip.

"Nah, I do not have any problem with you two but…. I am sure, Satomi will never, ever allow of your relationship,"

"Relationship?" Ryan repeated with a confused look.

"Ah, Dad, Ryan is just a friend…. nothing more than that."

'Again. Why the pause then?!' Satoru furiously thought in his mind.

"Yeah, Satoru-San, you might be mistaken about something. I am just her friend, and I have no intentions of having that kind of relationship with Naomi."

'Oh my. Look man, you just made my daughter feel a little bitter.' Satoru noticed the change of expressions over Naomi's face.

"Huh…. why? What is so wrong with my daughter? What does my daughter lack?"

"Come on, dad, do no ask that sort of questions-"

"Nothing." Ryan interrupted Naomi, her eyes quickly turned at him, but Ryan looked straight into Satoru's eyes, "To be honest with you, sir, your daughter lacks nothing. She is strong, she is powerful, she has a powerful Trait, she has a beautiful personality, she has a pretty appearance, she even has good grades; For some reason, everyone in the Academy admires her so much, everyone likes her.

"Right now, I am privileged to be able to talk with her father, her mother. I am happy that I have a friend like her with whom I can hang out, have mature conversations, talk about my problems.

"But if we were about to bring romantic emotions in between our friendship, it will ruin everything. It will ruin our friendship, it will ruin our partnership, our trust. Everything. I just do not want to lose another good friend of mine. That is the reason I can not even think about dating your daughter, who might, for everyone, just be the ideal girl."

'Boy, boy…. You sure do not think before speaking, Ryan-Kun, See what have you done to my little Naomi-chan. She is embarrassed!'

"Uhm-huh. That was a nice reply coming from a 16-year-old boy. Looks like the 16-year teen has the wisdom of a 40-year-old huh?" 

"Haha, no sir. I am just… a little bit too experienced than other 16-year-olds" Three women. The images of three women flashed from Ryan's eyes.

Erin Heffley, Gwen Stacy, and Mary Newton. The three women who were once very close to him but… shit happened and now they have pushed far away from him.

"Well… All those talks for later, Ryan-Kun, for now, I will have to get going."

"Oh, sure, sir."

"You see, my wife, Naomi's mother has put a lot of pressure on me. The virus breakout, then suddenly the building was set on fire… I wonder how did the whole building was set on fire though, that's a little impossible,"

'Ah…. it was me.' Ryan could not help but let out a grin.

After Ryan dropped Ayami on the stairs, Ryan quickly ran up to the first floor's storeroom.

'Good. I do not know why, but I am glad it is here.' Ryan quickly took out the cans of kerosene and Cleaning Alcohol. With the mop used to mop the floor. Ryan ran up to the fourth floor.

He quickly spilled over the cans all over the corridors. He carefully joined the flow of liquid down the stairs, to the third, then second, then to the first floor. He made sure to cover the dead bodies of zombies and humans. Henry's body, etc.

He stopped on the first floor's left staircase. The liquid was slowly climbing down the corridor. The corridor was slanting, it had a slope going down to the Right Wing.

With the use of his Vision skill, Ryan had easily found it out. He left the liquid down there, it was slowly sliding down.

< The time of the collision, the time when the liquid alcohol will reach the Right Wing is 3 minutes >

'Good.' near the Right Wing, near the staircase, Ryan dropped a lighter. A hand lighter on the ground with its flame on, 'Three minutes and the building will go-- BOOM!!'

"Yes, I too wonder how the building exploded on its own…." Ryan replied. He was standing in front of Satoru.

"Ah, I will get going now. I have to re-build the building in two days, take care of small things, media, press, students, teachers, masters. And… I also have to impose a few new laws and rules."

'New laws? He? How can he impose new laws? Would not the government be the one to impose new laws?' Ryan was confused. But he did not ask.

"Ryan-Kun, please take care of my daughter from now on. She is your responsibility now."

"Haha, sure sir." he thought Satoru was just mocking him but… he was not.

"Well then. Naomi-chan, see you tomorrow at the house. We have an important topic to discuss. And Ryan-Kun, we both, too, have an important topic to discuss. But not right now, let us talk tomorrow. Be ready."
