"Well, since we're both free, why don't we play a little game?" Reed suggested.
"A little game?" Gaius frowned. "I don't have any game console. I mean, Hermes, my son, has it in his room, but I don't know how to play that."
"No, not that kind of game," Reed smirked and leaned closer on Gaius, "We can play a very dangerous but fun game, what do you think?"
"D—Dangerous, but a fun game?" Gaius had a bad feeling about this.. He thought it was just him being paranoid, but when he saw that malicious glint on Reed's eyes, he knew that Reed wasn't joking… at least not completely.
"You might not understand it for now, but let's just play this and have fun, shall we?"
Reed's offer creeped the hell out of him. Because it made Gaius both curious and scared at the same time. He wanted to shook his head, the curiosity got him, and he nodded hesitantly.
Reed grinned after getting the confirmation, "I'm glad you want to play the game with me. Don't worry, you won't be disappointed."
[Pupa: Alert! Reed Ville's Fatemeter decreases to -100%!]
[BITCH WHAT?! -100!? H—HOW? WHY? WHEN? WHERE? WHO? WHAT!!?]
[Pupa: Yes, Reed Ville is the real Master of the world. That's why when I said that that Monster can't take Reed Ville's body because he is our target in the first place.]
[But why is that -100?! Did he hate me that much? How? We've just met today, right?]
[Pupa: I'm not sure about that one. Maybe the reason is locked within the hidden plot because I cannot find any background information about his hatred towards you. But it seems that his hatred is well spread among everyone in your family.]
[Pupa: When a master of the world reached -100% Fatemeter, that means he absolutely hates everything about you, including your family.]
[Holy frick, he is the first and probably the only one I ever saw to have that kind of extreme Fatemeter.]
[Then, how about his Breakmeter? I'm sure it's not that bad, right?]
[Pupa: It correlates with his Fatemeter, just like the previous world. So…]
[Dang it! -100% Breakmeter?!]
[Pupa: Yes.]
…
Reed Ville leaned closer on Gaius, who was bound on the wheelchair, and then said, "Let's start with the first game, shall we?"
**
"Ahh… damn!" Gaius groaned when he realized that he had lost. Thus he grabbed his little Gaius and slid down underneath Little Reed.
"Haha! You're under me now!" Reed laughed evilly.
He rolled the dice for this turn, and he got lucky with his roll.
[Damn it! Arggh, I'm frustrated!]
[Pupa: You always seem to be sexually frustrated.]
[No, no. This time, I expected him to like—Just push me to the ground and rock my shit! But we're playing snake & ladder right now! This is an insult to my natural Hoe-ness! Am I not charming enough to get railed?!]
[Pupa:… You're married.]
[… you just have to ruin the fun, Pupa.]
After Reed won the Snake & Ladder game, they watched the TV and saw the news about another rampaging villain in the city. It was Mr. Overpower, who had superhuman strength just like Clarke the Superbman. But Mr. Overpower didn't have either capability other than super strength, so he wasn't that difficult to take down.
The TV Live broadcasted the scene when Superbman, with the help of Lockey that could root the enemy to the ground, punched Mr. Overpower until he lost consciousness.
Thankfully, the Superpower police forces were ready to arrest Mr. Overpower and brought him to the Superhuman jail in the unknown region.
The citizen chanted Superbman name alongside the other heroes present on the spot.
The reporter approached the handsome and mighty Superbman and asked, "Superbman, Sir, what do you think about the surge of supervillains that keep coming these days?"
"We're still investigating the root of this problem, but for now, we're going to stop all of our enemies with our best effort. Please rest assured and stay safe, my citizen," Superbman said.
Gaius' eyes were glued to the screen. There was a proud smile on his face.
Reed, who had been observing Gaius the whole time, finally mentioned, "You seem to be very happy with his achievement. Is my brother that important to you?"
"But of course! He is Superbman. He protects the people even though he is exhausted every day with all these saving lives and superhero stuff. I really think that he is the most dedicated man on earth!" Gaius said proudly. He had no shame about his admiration for his husband. They had married anyway. There was no need to feel shy about it.
Reed observed Gaius and had a mysterious grin on his face, "I see. I know that he is a great hero, but I didn't expect him to be well-loved like this, especially by you."
"Well, I'm his wife, so I'm the first and the last one that'll love him," Gaius said with a proud smile.
"I see…"
Reed's mysterious smile gave the creep on Gaius. Because this guy always looked like he had planned something in his head. But then again, all they did today was just eating brunch and playing snake & ladder. They also watched tv.
There was nothing extraordinary between them. Reed's task was just to accompany Gaius, and he did it according to a normal scope, so Gaius couldn't get suspicious.
Gaius checked on the clock when the news was finished and found out that it was already noon. Gaius rolled the wheelchair to the kitchen and started cutting up some vegetables.
"What are you doing?" Reed asked.
"Cooking for my children. They will come in about an hour for lunch, so I have to prepare lunch for them," Gaius said as he got focused and busy with his cooking.
Reed watched how Gaius was so skilled in cooking even though he used the wheelchair as if he had been in this situation often. He often heard about Naturally Hoe, who always stayed at the backline and supported his allies. However, he had been showing less and less these days for health reasons.
Who would've expected the man was actually bound on the wheelchair right now. Though it didn't seem to bother him much.
Reed sighed and entered the kitchen, "Let me help."
