Marvel's Superman Chapter 9

Luke put away the gun with a smile while introducing himself.
He didn't expect to meet Dr. Abraham Erskine and Peggy Carter, in this way.
That's right.
The female officer standing in front of him will be one of the founders of the S.H.I.E.L.D.
Right now, she should be an agent for the Office of Strategic Services.
Responsible for protecting Abraham Erskine and participating in the Super Soldier Project.
"You killed these spies?" Peggy Carter said as she looked at the corpses, "You got some good skills."
As she scrutinized the bodies of the spies, she found that all three were killed by a single shot. There were no extra traces of being hit. All the bullets had struck the vital parts, killing them instantly.
Judging from the wounds alone, she deduced that Luke must have some good marksmanship.
Moreover, there was no panic or any other intense emotion in his eyes, even after killing three people.
No matter how one looked at it, it wasn't a work of a beginner.
Such an amazing performance was the very reason for Peggy to be suspicious.
How was it possible for ordinary youngsters from Brooklyn to take out German spies so casually?
If this was true, then the Allies would have captured Berlin long ago and put an end to this war.
"Well, I learned some self-defense skills." Luke casually answered.
He did learn fighting and shooting from his Uncle Frank long ago.
The latter even thought about training Luke to be a gangster.
Irish gangs were rising rapidly but they just lacked some good guys who could handle the killings.
Unfortunately, Luke had no interest to follow that path.
Although he worked hard to learn fighting and shooting, and even insisted on exercising, it was only to increase his means of self-protection.

He was not a dumb guy who had dreams of becoming a gangster godfather.
"Doctor, it's not safe here. Let's leave first." The female officer retracted her gaze from Luke and looked at Dr. Erskine whispered softly, "We will investigate all for this afterwards."
"Okay." Dr. Erskine nodded, then as he looked Luke and said, "I will keep your name in my mind, Luke."
Dr. Erskine was here because he was invited by Howard Stark to the World Expo of Tomorrow.
However, after meeting him, Dr. Erskine felt that the young and promising Mr. Stark was more like a businessman.
The enthusiasm for climbing toward the peak of science was far less than his interest in amassing wealth and chasing women.
Therefore, in the end, the two of them only exchanged a few words, and then they didn't talk much about other important topics.
"Is he your friend?" Before leaving, Erskine looked at Steve Rogers on the side.
For some reason, he was very interested in this small, thin man.
Perhaps it was the conversation between the other party and the Conscription station officer that brought back some memories in Erskine's heart.
As the developer of the Super Soldier Serum, Abraham Erskine knew its danger and what side effects it had.
'I have already created a devil, and I don't want to create anymore!'
Therefore, Erskine was always looking for a suitable candidate to be the next "Super Soldier" who would misuse his powers and understand mercy.
"Yes and his name is Steve Rogers." Luke pulled Steve over and said, "My friend here really wishes to fight for our country. Although his physique is only sub par, his sense of patriotism is like never seen before."
"Oh?" Erskine nodded with a thoughtful look and left the scene.

The female officer didn't stay any longer and also followed him, but she looked suspiciously at Luke before leaving. While soldiers stayed back to investigate the scene and clean up the mess.
"Luke, who were they?"
Steve who survived the incident had no idea about what had happened.
Luke curled his lips and softly said while patting his thin shoulders, "Someone who could change your destiny."
'I didn't expect that I would enter the military's radar in this way. I am afraid that Peggy Carter will carefully investigate my background.'
But he was not worried that the Office of Strategic Services is destined to find nothing.
Their enemy was Hydra and Luke had absolutely no relationship with the so-called German spies and assassins sent by the Hydra.
"All that just now was terrible." Steve, who still didn't have much idea of what had happened, still had some lingering fears.
The Conscription station officer who was arguing with him earlier was now in a pool of blood.
His hollow eyes had lost all the color as blood seeped out of his forehead due to the bullet lodged inside his head.
"If you step on the battlefield, you will encounter more of such things and witness even more dead partners." Luke sighed.
He had watched Uncle Frank 'clean the houses'.
He even personally 'solved' some troubling gangsters.
He had long been accustomed to blood and death.
"Do I even have a chance to go to the War?" Steve is a little frustrated, he has suffered a lot of rejections.
Everywhere he went, everyone he met, only had one reply, that he won't be able to do it, and he should stay back.
Even his best friend Bucky was no exception.
"There will be a chance." Luke nodded lightly.
He seemed more confident than Steve himself.
Feeling Steve's puzzled gaze on himself, Luke changed the subject and dragged him out of the Conscription station, "Alright, let's go find Bucky. We need to enjoy our time while we three are still together."

Living in Paradise
The first thing I saw when I woke up was a group of people standing over me shouting "Happy Birthday!!!". Immediately after they start debating what type of world I came from and calling me 'William'. Later on I would learn that everyone here is reborn from another world and many children come with magic or superpowers or other gifts leftover from their old lives. I came from a world that was, to me, typical modernity. To them it was pretty boaring with the only thing interesting about my world being was a higher than average tech level for a non-spacefaring civilization; technology that wouldn't even work in this new world. All I brought with me was a peculiar mindset and the strong suspicion that there must be something more to life. Once everyone started to clear out my mother took me up in her arms, explained how the world works, and then stabbed me in the neck with a knife. I got better. -------------------- This story was written from the central idea of a simple question: What if a videogame like world, with all the normal video-game staples and tropes, was actually a real world? How would that work? How would people understand the universe around them? What sort of weirdness would the world appear to have from the point of view of someone who recognizes the odd nature of the place? And finally, if left to its own devices, how would this type of world ultimately develop?

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD
