78 "No Blue Bald dude!!"

"As I said I will be leaving for quite some time, this is an urgent matter that needs my attention." Mark was sitting in the main seat of the table as he looked at his women. Francine, Neferata(slave), Melissa(rewarded), Maria(joined in the fun) and Paris.

*Slurp*

Since he did the deed with them then he should at least take responsibility at his actions thus he had kept Paris too. Mark looked down on his legs at the bobbing head that was taking in his entire length.

"You are really not giving me any space here dear." Mark said as a shiver ran to his back. Though as accident at first, Mark grew to like this klutz of a woman. From what had Francine told him, she was the typical bargaining chip between nobles kind of life.

These made her live carefree not minding much of the issues most nobles have, but she was raised as a dutiful wife. It did take some time for him to 'convince' her to become his, even if he has no feelings of love to the woman.

Not that he has to any of the woman in front of him, learning certain things like you are just a past version of another you takes a toll on the mind. Even if he is strong willed not breaking down after learning such but life goes on, he's shook about it but what can he do.

*Pop!*

"*gulp* But you'll be gone and I won't have my daily breakfast for a long time." The woman was the cute airhead type when she became younger looking form all the 'nourishments' she has been receiving.

"Mother please, cease you actions for now! We're having a serious discussion here!" Since she had that night of crazy with her mother, Francine stayed embarrassed for months but she came to when she thought her husband is a god.

Mark did a lot to make her think that a god is not bound to one woman, making sure there is no 'Hera' type of situation in the future just in case. He did convince her in the end and made them all know of each other, kind of forced but he just did it as he felt spending too long might just make it worse.

So for now Francine thought that such a great man meant that there would be many that would enter his life and she made sure she'll be in the main seat. She even accepted her mother in the fold as she knew her father married her only for political reasons.

And she as not so fond of her brothers anyways, so right now she is the main wife and Mark did give her some gifts like a concentrated vial of Compound V. It gave her powers of Aerokinesis which made her a force to reckon with along with a super soldier physique.

But from her occasional practice she focused more in learning to cook and be a great housewife. She did not like it when her mother joined in but it was not so farfetched when other nobles did worst in the marriage department. Besides, she needed more on her side in case some heat in the harem might happen in the future.

"Like I said, for me it might be a few days but here it would be a few months of time. There will be lots of things to do but I am sure you will all understand how to face it. One day you will see why I am preparing so much but it is necessary." Mark then patted Paris' head who used his lap as her pillows. She pouted but she still stood up while acting spoiled to Mark.

Francine was exasperated as this was the trouble she had to handle but she was also happy her mother able to express herself more since living as a Duchess would take a toll on someone with all the rules and the restrictions placed by the last Duke like all those of nobility do. It did weirded her out that she had to act as the mother of her 'son' which was just Mark in an illusion.

Thankfully her home is now thriving as Mark was quite open to their weird antics. Other than that he also extended the influence of his purification ability to the Forest of Arden which made the blight all around the land to also get cleansed.

She did like the role play though, but since Mark would be gone then she needed to hold the fort in the lands. Mark did leave that small 'robot' that was programmed to follow her instructions. She did not understand why her husband called it a robot when it is clearly a magical golem.

This is quite right, as Mark had gotten the Runesmith job when he completed that mission of gathering beast for his backyard. Now he has a series of techno magical items in display due to his experiments, but the best he had made is now displayed in his private lab.

After arriving there, he now stood in front of glass displays of his various new items. Then he stopped at the new suit he made which was similar to Homelander's suit but the pauldrons were not the eagle Homelander has, but was a dragon head.

Though he didn't want to but he added a cape which was detachable magically, thanks to the magic spells he learned from the tomes and scrolls he had collected. Going around and taking items in case for emergencies as well as supplies that might be needed as well as clothes for various situations. Mark then looked at his current system interface.

[Remarks: You have now become a god]

Mark was standing there, he had not looked much into the system since his experience after repairing it. There were no missions anymore but it did give him rewards for successful battles that happened.

Now it was like the total war interface where he could press that next turn button which fast forwarded what happened for two weeks. But he had never done so as he focused more in learning using his time, but the process was explained by the system to him on how this interface worked.

The time would just flow faster while the orders he had placed before hand would be followed by those of his territory. He could also initiate diplomacy to other forces and it would make him see the possible result if he proposes some deals and bargains to the other side.

He could also assign which branch of technology his people should follow. It even came with the statistic of his trades and income from the various businesses Mark has. Also the state of the general populace which Mark found to be 98% which means a two percent does not find his place appealing.

The War room and this interface has made him able to handle his territory easier but he has not introduced the room yet to his confidants. And with this interface he could understand what is happening real time in his own territory.

He could also control the development of the buildings in his territory like the Barracks and Ports he owns. Like which practice should his soldiers focus in as it would make them expertize to that certain profession. Like Archery, Spearmanship, Horseback riding and many more.

Closing his Status he looked back to his lovers and smiled at them, he then went to the shop which is now manned by a Muscular Rat wearing formal attire. Reepicheep has been trained by Mark on how to handle the shop since his last blunder.

The suit was to calm down some people that get scared at a muscular rat standing and talking. He had drilled the prices of things and gave some authority to the Rat on how to charge his customers, three years of extensive training made sure the Rat remembered.

And his antics did make many customers relax, Mark also noticed the rat was slowly growing and changing. Right now he is more like a three feet tall muscular bipedal Capybara with a very noisy mouth and chatty nature with some slight narcissism.

Mark stood in front of DC world door and took a deep breath, he took one last look at himself in the mirror and found himself quite dashing with his 6'8" height, purple eyes, long black hair and a cleanly shaved face.

He wore a long sleeves white shirt, black pants, shined leather shoes, buckled belt and a long grey Trench-coat. A transfigured armor which is his tie, his weapons was his rings, necklaces as well were enchanted items and lastly the Patek Philippe watch.

Taking one last look he then turned to the door and prayed a mantra he wanted to be true once he stepped out.

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

'Please let there be no glowing blue naked bald dude'

Mark then opened the door and was greeted by the dreary atmosphere of Gotham. This made him also remember that no one has come through this door, taking a whiff of the stench of Gotham Mark scrunched up his nose from the foul air.

This made him release some purifying aura as he walked out, he stood there for a minute and waited. It wasn't until five minutes later he sighed in relief as his nerve relaxed from being tense in that moment.

After relaxing Mark took out the Mini Super computer which is fashioned like a Gameboy Advance with a small keyboard and a touch screen. Mark's skills in hacking instantly blossomed and breaking through such simple firewalls were too easy that he did not even leave a trace.

It took about one minute of hacking until he knew what is happening, somehow the plot is not the same in the movies. Cheetah existed again after what happened to Maxwell Lord, but it was not recorded in the government archives which meant what happened at '85 was forgotten.

But it was still there in the internet raising conspiracy theorist in making connections from the information shown. Like the records of the rise of stocks in Black Gold Inc. as well as some data of money flowing in from investors.

Mark felt relaxed as it seems that Maxwell Lord just tried to be a great business man that his company was getting a redemption arc. But something did catch his attention though; it was that a failed expedition happened in Africa where a Plant God was found to have given Minerva back her powers.

But was soon captured by Wonder Woman with a 'specialized' drug meant to incapacitate the feline villain. Mark felt embarrassed he had sold concentrated catnip essence to the demi-goddess but past is past.

But an even did need his attention, news about a boy outrunning a train in Metropolis. Mark raised his brow as this was an indication Superman is now a teenager. Star labs is there and Barry Allen is not yet a motherless kid, Mark felt that interfering might make a flashpoint so maybe no.

Since he was here anyways then why not grabbing some goodies, Mark looked around and found no cameras. He then casted an illusion making him invisible then made charms that enabled him to fly. Making sure he is out of Radar he bent down and jumped high.

Mark flew, one thing he did too in those years was to study how the Compound V made Homelander. And like he had improved with the divine power he too became more super, using all he could then he might reach the 50 ton force in strength.

His limits were not known yet as he had not yet built equipment to measure his full power. Sadly he could not figure out the Heat vision but was able to have x-ray vision as well as increase reaction time when he also developed his Purple Demon Eyes.

He could run for about 230 km/h with his base speed and fly for about Mach 1.5 for the moment but could reach 2.5 if he boosted himself with mana. But that would make him glow gold breaking the illusion spell and be seen by many.

While flying, Mark is gathering every data he could while hacking every government files online. This made him learn about secret bases, one of which stored a Starro the conqueror in a small country down South America.

He even found information about the JSA, which listed Dr. Fate, Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Ray Palmer, The Boom( Judy Garrick), Wonder Woman and Wildcat in their current members.

'Hmm, really different. There's already a speedster present.' Mark was thoughtful as he tried to piece together which is which. He then searched the information about Biallya, Khandaq, Nanda Parbat, Lexcorp, Harrison Wells, Oliver Inc. and many other things.

It seems that other that Gotham that is currently ruled by the 12 mafia families. Other places now have super heroes patrolling their own places, Africa, Asia and Europe has their own teams that move about.

But Mark focused more on developing companies that would become billionaire companies in the Future. If his calculations are correct then his gold coins could reach about $70 million if converted. So on his way he made offshore accounts then made shell companies and started buying shares to invest on these companies.

With the supercomputer in his hand he made many of these possible within two hours. He was not in a hurry so he went on about his pace floating towards the general direction of Metropolis City. But just as he was near he received the system notification.
