Chapter 74 - Entering the 2nd level

"It really suits you!" stated Matt

"Shut up! I know what you are thinking about" Wade stated.

"I know it would be weird if you didn't know, since breaking the fourth wall is one of your abilities as well right Deadpool!" Matt said with a smirk.

"Those Comic bastards! They used my name on the most hateful character, Don't call me with that name. I already filed a complaint in the Court regarding this as many have started to call me with that nickname but it wasn't helpful and now even you are starting to talk about it." Wade said.

"Hahaha... sorry but what can I do, I tried and didn't say when I got to know about your name but now even your ability is the same as him so I couldn't help but speak about it and yes it's true that you were born much earlier than him but he is much more famous than you so it's obvious that everyone will think you changed your name to his hence the reactions," Matt explained his reason for the teasing as he didn't want Wade to fall out with him due to this.

"Hmnp" Wade released a grunt and turned his head not looking at Matt anymore.

"Well, jokes aside your ability is really great as well. It may not look much right now since it may be minor healing only but if the ability continues to grow than it may really match up to Deadpool's healing one day" Matt stated as he turned his head to look at his father who was waiting for him.

"Dad what ability did yo-"

"Matt! my son is not responding and neither is Ethan" before Matt could ask his father about his ability he was interrupted by Jacob who was sitting beside his son.

Matt turned his head as he looked towards Mike and Ethan sitting in trance not responding to the calls of Jacob and understood at once what was happening.

"Don't touch them and don't disturb them. They are most likely going through some sort of transformation after eating the black bear's meat for the second time and with this their ability may grow further" Matt stated stopping Jacob from shaking his son and destroying his chance from entering the second level of Neo Human.

"Second time! I just got my ability and they are already entering the second level?" Paul said standing up after regaining some of his strength.

"Don't feel stumped I gained my ability much earlier than them but here they are leaving even me behind?" Matt said casually though in his mind there was a storm raging on 'How could they enter the second level even if they were dead tired this shouldn't happen, they used level 3 meat to gain their ability and even if they can enter the second level it should be only possible after a large consumption of level 3 meat or small consumption of level 4 meat but here they are transforming after only eating a small chunk of meat.'

Looking at his old best friend and a new friend Matt couldn't help but sigh 'It's clear that their exhaustion triggered the transformation of their ability to enter the second level but eve if they extract all the energy from the level 3 meat it wouldn't be enough spirit to fully enter the second level. Tch.... had I known about it I would have given more meat.'

"Oh, Father you haven't told us what ability you gained," asked Paul since Matt was busy thinking for a solution helpful for Mike and Ethan.

"Mine is nothing fancy it's just a support ability that's all. I release a kind of energy around myself and help others to regain their energy by losing mine" Jonathan stated and was going to show it to him but before he could Matt grabbed on to his shoulders stopping him from doing something like that.

When Matt heard about his father's ability he couldn't help but smile and had already thought the best use of it, hence he stopped his father at once not allowing him to showcase his ability like that.

"Don't waste your ability like that we may need it right now!" Matt stated

"What!?" asked Jonathan is surprised as he didn't think his help would be needed even after he gained such an ability.

"Yes! I don't think that Mike and Ethan have enough energy to pass through the threshold of the 1st level and enter the 2nd level so we may need your ability to help them for that," explained Matt.

"How can you know about it!?" asked Wade.

"Because I didn't entered the second level for the same reason and stopped just before entering it!" Matt replied with a simple lie without stopping for a second making everyone believe what he said must be true.

"What can I do to help?" asked Jonathan.

"Well, it would have been helpful if we knew how your ability works and how many times you can use it or for how long you can use it. But we can't know about those things until you use it fist so tell me whatever you presently know about your ability?" Matt asked

"Well the range of my ability is 10 meters around me in a circle but I can't control it so whoever is within 10 meters of me would be able to get the benefit from it. Other than that I don't know anything else about my ability" replied Jonathan

"OK then everyone let's move 10 meters away from my dad, we don't know if he will lose his ability much faster if there are more people or not," Matt said to Wade, Jacob, and Paul who nodded their head and walked away from them and only stopped after 15 meters just to be sure that they don't destroy Mike and Ethan's chance.

"Dad please stand beside Mike & Ethan. After I give you the signal, you will use your ability and will continue to do so until you aren't able to use it we must make sure that they get all the help they can" Matt stated.

"Don't worry son I will do everything I can" Jonathan said.

"Good," Matt said after which he walked away moving towards where Paul and the others were standing,

'This is all I can do to help you the rest is up to you guys'
