Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Coming To Their Doom

One month had passed since the day he killed Mud Slide. Since then, nobody had given him anymore contracts after the Five showed a good example out of Mad Rocket. But he was not sad. He just made enough money to last him in this world for a while, well, at least until one of the villians decides to go by the book and release a can of worms that will threaten to destroy the world unless a hero comes and save it. He already knew Spark Plug was the MC in this world. He could practically smell the MC side calling to her strongly.

Also, he had been feeling the Tribulations coming to him everyday. He had decided to enjoy it with some friends. The past few days, he had cleaned up the Screeners who were tailing him until they disappeared off his short distance radar. Also, for some reason, the girl next door has been sweet on him this couple of days. He could agree she was quite the beauty when smiling or not. That day, he had taken her to a concert.

The artist was not from this City but was a beloved one. She kind of reminded him of Beyonce. He had also bought a car which they took to the concert that was in the next Province. Once there, she changed into her fan clothes and dragged him across the crowd to the front. But midway, the crowd got more stubborn to move so she could only stop. Also, she was not not quite tall so the people in front blocked her view with large hats and some carried their girls onto their shoulders.

"Aggie, you need upsies?" he asked her. She pouted then nodded begrudgingly. He just laughed then lifted her easily into his shoulders. She forgot her embarrassment as soon as Vernyl got on stage and stars performing. It was a long night for Nicklaus and on the way back, he just had to entertain himself as she was deep asleep, exhausted by her excitement. When they reached home, be carried her to her apartment then went into his and fell asleep.

Two days past since then and Nicklaus had not left his apartment. He just bought a new gaming console and with his DF, he would hardly grow sleepy. So, he was still vibrant even after two straight all nighters and ready for his third one when he heard a knock. He quickly used his DF to make himself clean and went to open it. Aggie smiled at him and showed him two takeouts.

"Thought you might be hungry," she said.

"Matter of fact, I am," he said then showed her in. Before she could see his messy room, he quickly froze time then proceeded to clean the place up. Once done, he resumed with his stance and unfroze time. Aggie got into the apartment and was quite surprised to see his apartment clean. It was too clean.

"Just finished cleaning up," he told her, closing the door behind her. She accepted that instead of believing he was always clean. She put the take out on the counter and he proceeded to pour them out onto plates. He carried the two plates to the living room.

"I know I don't cook much but this is my masterpiece, enjoy," he told her. She just looked at him teasingly then took a bite.

"Hmm, your cooking tastes a lot like my favourite Chinese restaurant's cooking," she said to him.

"Really?" Nicklaus asked in disbelief then tasted it. "Strange." She noticed he was thick headed enough to not admit to it so she changed topic.

"Did you hear the people are voting for Golden Mercenary to take the place of The Chill in the Five?" she asked him. Nicklaus almost chocked when he heard this.

"What? How did that happen?" he asked her as he drank water.

"Most people are not happy with the way the supers are holding down the forte. In City E and G The Chill was in charge, he never did anything two years after he got into The Five. But they saw the Five need someone like the Golden Mercenary to make it care about the people again," she said. Nicklaus was weirdly reminded of the American Senate when he heard that.

"The Five will never agree to that, though. Any way, how was your day?" he changed the subject only to realize he just went to the old married couple question. But she did not seem to notice.

"Quite terrible. New work mates, new rules. I hate it when new people move in. The boss can't seem to be able to hold on to the few he has. If I was not a project manager I would be out too," she said in frustration. "Yours?"

"Sorry to disappoint you but I had a wonderful day," he said. She punched him playfully.

This went on for an hour when they finally finished their food. Nicklaus took the plates to the kitchen, leaving her watching a TV show and washed the plates. Then, he came back and sat beside her. She changed the channel to a reality TV. As they watched, the two were engaged in small talk until without them noticing it, Aggie was leaning into his chest as they watched and he had his hand over her shoulder.

Three hours in, Aggie fell asleep snuggled on his chest and that's when he realized what had just happened. With a regretful sigh, he carried her to her bed and left. He went on with his game until early in the morning when he heard a scream in her apartment. He went inside and called out her name. She answered from the bathroom. He went in and found her inside her tub.

"You alright?" he asked her.

"I think I twisted my ankle. Can you get me dressed and into my bed?" she asked him. Nicklaus was hit by a sudden sense of de ja vu. He did not know if it was porn hub of an episode of Big Bang Theory where Sheldon had to take Penny to the hospital after dressing her with his eyes closed.

"Okay," he said and took a bathrobe. He held it out for her and turned around but she claimed she could not stand well. Now he was almost certain it was porn hub. He helped her up by her arm then she put the robe on. Carrying her in a princess carry, he took her to her bed and gently put her down.

"Is my leg swollen?" She asked him. Nicklaus looked at the leg and first he noticed the bathrobe should have been called a mini bathrobe. Evidence now laid to porn hub. He could feel his blood pumping harder as he looked at those wet legs. Unconsciously, he swallowed hard then looked at her ankles. Aggie must have been a foot model for they were just perfect.

"N...No," he managed to say. Aggie suddenly pulled him to her and kissed him. Every sense of self preservation flew out the window then and Nicklaus retaliated. She slowly shed his clothes while he just had to yank once and the robe was undone. If Jill was the appetizer, Aggie was the encore. She was still a virgin, surprisingly to him, but she was a lithe and an hour in, both of them were panting next to each other.

"That was...I can't even begin to explain it," Nicklaus said.

"You loved it?"

"Loved it? If I didn't believe in women rights I would still be in you right now," he answered her. She kissed him quite happily and proudly then she went to sleep.

Nicklaus then wore his clothes after a bath then went for a walk. He wanted to go and visit Lagertha when a portal opened in front of him. Tim, Nick and Hank appeared there.

"Well, well well, look who's alive," Tim said. Nicklaus almost fainted in fear. The last time he fought these three he was crushed. He was still not as strong as last time and they were now here.

"Last time you were lucky. This time, I will drain every last life force in you," Tim said as his eyes became red. Suddenly, the sky became covered with clouds. The four of them looked up and immediately, their skins turned white in fear, tribulation. The three turned to Nicklaus.

"Fuck, the bastard was about to face his tribulation. Considering how freakish he is, this was going to be a powerful one. Now that Mid gods appeared in his tribulation, this is enough to kill us," Hank shouted.

"I can't go back to my realm!" Nick said in panick. Purple Lightning converged in the clouds then turned into four lightning before they started becoming bigger and bigger till they were the size of a stream. They crashed down with force and hit the four. They screamt in pain as Nicklaus felt himself turning to ash but the warm current sprang to action and he was okay once again. He felt his DF turn into IDF.

Before the clouds could leave, Nicklaus broke through twice. The three felt it and felt like killing themselves. This guy was challenging heaven and heaven would not be happy! As they guessed, the clouds converged once again, this time more angrier.

Nicklaus looked up and just sighed. The more the heaven mecame angry the more he would break through. It was a broken system for him. Once again, lightning formed, split and hit them. This lightning was even more stonger. Nicklaus felt his body disappearing but the warm current came and he broke through thrice. The three almost lost their souls. Even them were trying their best to hold on but this guy was breaking through like breaking a grape with a sledge hammer. They saw the clouds falter a bit as if in disbelief to. They saw lightning flash twice as if trying to confirm this was a divine punishment not a breakthrough aid. Then, the lightning turned from purple to black. It split to four then turned even more thicker than the purple ones.

"Shit, it's the Heaven Smite! This kid brought us to our deaths," Hank cried out. Nicklaus braced himself. He was now in Fifth stage of Nirvana Rank.

The black Lightning suddenly hit him and he felt as if his body was really been broken from an atom level. Suddenly, he felt something he never felt before, a feeling to devour. He latched onto Tim for he was the closest then tendrils shot out of his body and tore him apart as Tim was struggling to get rid of the Black lightning in his inner world.

Suddenly, Nicklaus's aura suddenly spiked. He broke through to God realm at once. Immediately after, two solar systems made of twenty planets each appeared in his inner world. As if the world had been put in fast forward, the world turned into two galaxies. One had a black sun and the other a red sun. Nicklaus felt the black sun had the same aura as the black Lightning and the red sun had the Blood Law Tim apparently cultivated. Nicklaus then turned to the two and the tendrils shot out of his body and consumed them. He then felt his Omni Dragon Force become thicker as two more galaxies appeared in his inner world. He felt the third one had a Destruction law as the sun and the fourth had a Creation law as the sun.

When he felt alright, Nicklaus checked his body again. He felt powerful enough to tear apart a galaxy now! His base power was equal to four galaxies! With one galaxy, to put it so that one could not feel jealous was like having your own Qi factory. To put it in terms so that your enemies will fear you, you had inexhaustible Qi. You can fight using trump cards after trump cards especially when everything in your galaxies are as big as Nicklaus's. But he knew now the gap between him and the Author was actually quite insurmountable. The three had been Mid gods for hundreds of millions of years and they had only added twenty thousand more galaxies in their inner world, nowhere near the required amount. Now, he had four galaxies to fill out so he had a long journey in front of him.

"Let's not think about it," he said and teleported back in bed with Aggie
