Superman Termination Manual

In the early morning, before dawn, a faint morning light penetrated through the window, gently covering Ke Mingye's fair face.

His eyelids quivered slightly as he slowly awoke from his slumber, lifting his eyes to the words on the notification panel.

[Good morning, Mr. Player. Today is July 3, 2028. There are 350 days remaining until the deadline for completing the ultimate mission "Superhuman Extinction."]

"Time flies. The day of the Ninja Sect's attack is tomorrow," Ke Mingye thought.

[Today's daily tasks are as follows.]

[1. Run 6,000 meters in the morning (Reward: One spin-the-wheel chance)]

[2. Do one hundred push-ups (Reward: One attribute point to be assigned at will)]

Ke Mingye walked out of his room and freshened up in the washroom.

He had initially wanted to drag his grudge-laden younger sister with him for a run, as revenge for her waking him up early a few days ago. But after knocking on her door for a long time, there was no response.

She was either sleeping like a pig or had gone out.

After a while, Bai Zini finally spoke up, which suggested the former: "I'm dead tired, you go run by yourself, big bro."

"Oh, then you sleep," Ke Mingye said.

Were there any criminals last night?

He thought this while unlocking his phone, searching for crime news related to Huanjing. Last night there were only two villainous figures, "Dice Monster" and "Witch Black Rose."

Seeing the former, Ke Mingye thought Bai Zini had come looking for him last night, but upon seeing the latter, he dismissed the idea, and the confusion in his heart dissipated.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"A witch, no wonder," he mused, and put his phone away.

"Witch," meaning a fallen Magic Girl, who grows powerful by hunting Contracted Beasts and consuming the Comet Fragments within them, all while gradually falling into depravity, losing their humanity.

In a way, witches can be considered the natural enemies of Magic Girls.

They typically start out as lowly talented, unremarkable-looking Magic Girls with little presence, harboring obsessive and extreme traits in the depths of their character.

Thus they lose themselves, unscrupulously hunting Contracted Beasts to increase the amount of Comet Fragments in their bodies

Eventually, in this process, they slowly lose their humanity, their craving for Comet Fragments steadily escalates, similar to a drug addict's dependence on marijuana; so they turn to target Magic Girls with Comet Seeds.

In the eyes of the witches, the Comet Fragments extracted from the bodies of Magic Girls with Comet Seeds are no less than those obtained from Contracted Beasts, so they usually target Magic Girls with Comet Seeds.

Ke Mingye was unclear about the strength of this "Witch Black Rose" mentioned in the news, as he hadn't seen her livestream and could not read her information from the system panel.

However, on the Superhero Association's wanted list, her bounty placed her in the same high AAA category as "Divine Communicator Ghost Tree," who had troubled Bai Qiuwu.

One can infer... at least Magical Girl Ash is probably not her match.

If other Magic Girls can't beat her, they probably really can't;

But Bai Zini is different; the mothers who head the Alliance are her very own, and she can call for mommy if she can't handle it.

Just a text message from her, no matter whether Xizi Yue is in Paris or London, she'll hop on the spacetime train and rush over, so Ke Mingye wasn't worried about Bai Zini. Xizi Yue's title as the world's number one Magic Girl wasn't just for show.

If that's not enough, the city still has dad and big bro backing her up. Those two freaks don't show mercy or spare the fairer sex like Magic Girls do.

In any case, since Witch Black Rose chose to come to Huanjing around summer vacation, she's in for a treat.

"Unless Bai Zini is too stubborn, wanting to prove herself to her three masters, there shouldn't be any danger," Ke Mingye thought.

Feeling a twinge of envy, he thought if only he could call on his parents, there would be no need for all this hassle; he'd just strut across the Earth, for which organization could match this family?

Unfortunately, he was a villain.

With that thought, he reached the entrance, put on his shoes, and quickly left the house, descending the stairs, and then, as always, started running along the Old Jingmai District.

Since his second brother Ke Xiaomo was likely undergoing intense training in preparation for tomorrow's big battle, no one was watching over him, so he let loose, avoiding surveillance cameras along the way while reaching a speed far beyond that of sprint champions, efficiently completing several laps.

The 6,000-meter run was completed in under ten minutes, and because he was so familiar with the route, he indeed managed to avoid most of the surveillance cameras.

Ke Mingye gradually came to a stop, hands resting on his knees as he caught his breath, and then claimed the reward for completing the task.

[You've obtained one spin-the-wheel chance.]

[1. A D-class weapon ticket;]

[2. 1500 Mall Coins;]

[3. One fragment of a Skill Enhancement Card;]

[4. A one-time-use item—Shrink Flashlight;]

[5. An E-class item—"Master Chef Card";]

[6. Thank you for participating.]

"I sacrifice ten years of my family's lifespan, please let it be number three," Ke Mingye mumbled as he pressed the start button, clapping his hands together sincerely.

The pointer began to whirl swiftly on the wheel, slowing down at the edge of the second area. In the last second, the pointer moved to the next section.

[Congratulations, you have won the prize in area three—"One fragment of a Skill Enhancement Card"]
