Chapter 4 - 100%

Jack reached the nearby News Station, and without a care in the world, he slammed the doors open.

Everyone in the Front lounge looked at the black-haired man with a questioning gaze.

But he only ignored them all and walked towards the receptionist.

''Hello sir, May I help you?'' The female receptionist asked politely.

''I have something which would interest the News Station very much,'' Jack said while his handsome face kept twitching into extreme anger.

''May I ask what it is about?'' The receptionist asked while typing with the keyboard.

''Heroes killing an innocent woman.''

Once the receptionist heard that, she stopped typing. ''Excuse me.'' She said and took a phone and started dialing a certain number.

Jack felt that it looked suspicious, but his extreme rage clouded his judgment.

He saw the receptionist talking with someone until she stopped the call and put the phone back in its previous spot.

''Go to Floor 18.''

Jack nodded and walked towards the elevator.

Once the elevator door was closed, the receptionist's face turned more solemn, she tried to ignore the fate of the man, but still, it is hard, because she doomed someone to his death.

Jack not knowing what the receptionist thought, reached the 18th Floor.

After the Elevator opened he saw a middle-aged man with a business suit standing in front of the elevator with a polite smile.

''Please, follow me.'' He said and started walking big office.

Jack raised an eyebrow and followed closely behind.

He saw the middle-aged man opening the door and talking to the man who was sitting there.

The middle-aged man smiled and bowed towards Jack and left shortly afterward.

Jack looked at the scene with narrowed eyes but he entered the office.

''Please sit.'' The man who was sitting in the chair with the office desk in front of him said.

Jack sat down while holding the camera in his hand.

The man has a polite-looking smile with slick brown hair, he was wearing an expensive-looking suit with a black-colored necktie. He is a Deputy Director Laurence of Charity News Station

The city Jack lives in is called Charity and it is located in the Continent of Kindness.

Charity is the Capital City of Kindland, a country which is one of the biggest ones in entire Kindness.

Charity News Station is one of the biggest News Stations in Kindland, they have the support of Government and the Heroes.

Making their influence very powerful.

Jack doesn't know much about them, but he doesn't care, he offered the camera to him.

Laurence took the camera and looked at the video footage which was around 2 minutes long.

After the video was over, he put the camera on the table gently.

He started tapping the table, while Jack waited for his answer with anxiousness.

Suddenly Laurence started chuckling.

Jack raised an eyebrow, his eyes twitched in anger.

How dares he...?

My wife was cruelly killed and he laughs...

Killing Intent flashed in Jack's eyes, his face morphed into anger.

''Ah, I am sorry.'' Laurence stopped chuckling and waved his hand. ''We get a lot of these videos, and it seems that you are one of them...''

''What do you mean?'' Jack looked at him with an angry face.

''Attention-seekers, this video is obviously fake, we get a lot of these videos,'' Laurence said with a calm smile.

''Fake? WHAT THE FUCK!'' Jack roared.

But Laurence didn't even flinch. ''Relax, no need to get angry because you won't get your few pennies.''

''TELL ME WHAT IS FAKE IN THIS VIDEO?!'' Jack roared, he stood up from his seat and looked at him with bloodshot eyes.

''The explosion was a nice touch, I gotta admit, but there are many examples like you can barely see the faces of people present,'' Laurence said.

Jack narrowed his eyes, in his memory, he saw their faces perfectly.

He reached his hand forwards and tried to grab the camera.

But Laurence slapped his hand away. ''Don't even think about editing the video more.'' He chuckled while taking a cigarette from the desk.

''YOU FUCKING LIAR! I REMEMBER THAT I SAW THE FACES PERFECTLY!''

''Enough! Guards!'' Laurence yelled and instantly 3 strong-looking men with black business suits entered the office.

''Throw this troublemaker out of the building, thanks,'' Laurence said.

''ARGH!'' Jack tried to resist, but they were too strong and he couldn't do anything.

He tried to reach his hand for the camera, but couldn't and he was dragged away.

...But after Jack was dragged away.

Laurence's playful look turned more serious.

He took a phone and dialed a certain number.

*Clank*

The call connected shortly afterward.

''Who is this?'' The voice on the phone asked.

''It's me, Laurence.''

''What is it?''

''One of your boys, Star Warrior and Green Dream did quite of a mess, and the husband of the victim had proof of it.''

''...'' The voice was quiet for a moment until the voice asked. ''What is the proof?''

''Video footage, but I have his camera, but I think there are more proofs at his house.''

''Alright... Usual payment?'' The voice asked.

Laurence grinned and asked. ''What do you need me to do?''

''Make a Breaking News broadcast and announce him as a new Villain who killed his wife ruthlessly.'' The voice on the phone said emotionlessly.

''Roger that.'' Laurence grinned and stopped the phone call.

He started making a few phone calls, and soon the preparations for the next Broadcast were done...

''HANDS OFF ME!'' Jack roared, but the muscular men threw him to the elevator, which descended to the Lounge area quickly.

The 3 muscular men threw him out of the building.

''Fucking attention whore.'' One of them growled angrily and spat towards Jack.

*Spit*

His spit landed perfectly at Jack's cheek.

He was laying on the ground, while his outfit was disheveled and dirty, his hair was messy and his face was dirty, he looked like a homeless man.

Jack looked at the News Station building with a hate-filled face. ''ARGH!'' He roared.

''This isn't over yet!'' Jack roared and started stomping towards his house, at least what is left of it.

His dirty look gained a lot of attention in the streets.

Most of the looks were mockery and disdain.

...But some of the weaker citizens pitied him... Because they are the same.

But Jack ignored all of them and continued walking towards his house with his shoes filled with holes.

Sophia and Jack never were wealthy, and they could barely feed themselves, that's why their outfits weren't the best.

But Jack only bought fitting outfits for Sophia, and only purchased very cheap outfits for himself.

Sophia was his everything, and he did everything to bring a smile to her face.

He never cared about his pathetic situation, at least his wife looked like peerless treasure.

Her smile was the only thing that mattered for Jack.

He kept remembering their memories of being together, and every second of their time together made him even angrier.

'Should I kill myself as well?' Jack thought, he stopped walking and the suicidal thoughts poured onto him.

But then as if lighting pierced through his mind.

He shook his head quickly. 'NO! I will get my revenge first, then I can die!'

He was about to start walking again... but then the screen all around him started changing to text [Breaking News]

He turned his head and looked at the big screen not far from him.

''Citizens of Charity - New Villain has appeared and he is extremely dangerous.'' The News Anchor said.

All the citizens present stopped walking and looked at the screen.

Then the picture of a man in his late 20s was shown.

''This man's name is Jack Wrathelm, today he killed his wife who was 8 months pregnant - This man is extremely dangerous and hostile, call the Police or Heroes if you see him, but don't attack him! He is extremely cruel and won't hesitate to kill any of you - The Heroes Association decided to give him 3-Moon Ranking - Please be safe and inform if you see him.''

Jack looked with a pale face at the screen. 'No...'

He looked around him and saw the citizens being shocked, some of them looked in his direction but didn't change their facial expressions.

'They don't recognize me?' Jack thought, he looked at the window next to him and saw his face being very dirty, he looks like a totally different person.

He sighed a relief.

'That bastard...' Jack then remembers Laurence's face. 'He did this!'

*Sob*

Sobbing noises came from Jack.

His nose was running with snot coming out of it.

'How Dare They?! hOw dARe ThEY!' Jack thought with a distorting voice.

He started walking slowly towards his home.

''HoW DaRE TheY?!''

He arrived in front of his house and saw that it was fully in flames.

The memories of him laughing, kissing, hugging with Sophia surfaced in his mind.

''ARGHHH!'' He roared while his face was morphed into extreme anger.

He fell down to the ground, he looked like a broken man.

''Death... DEath... DEAth... DEATh... DEATH!''
