“Boss?!”
Seeing Caesar kicking the sofa flying at high speed with his small feet, even Raina was momentarily stunned. She had only intended to use the sofa for a surprise attack, to test Caesar’s evasion response… but she didn’t expect Caesar to confront the sofa head-on as if it were a punching bag.
You can imagine: the palm-sized, fragile baby feet, facing a genuine leather sofa chair that was over a meter wide and long, was akin to an egg hitting a stone.
But the next moment, an even more shocking scene appeared before Raina.
‘Bang!’
It was as if a grenade had exploded nearby, the genuine leather sofa immediately split in half under Caesar’s feet.
One half of the shattered sofa flew backward and slammed against the white outer wall of the office with a loud crash, while the other half skewed out and shattered the glass of the French window, sending countless shards of broken glass splashing outwards, falling towards the bustling buildings and streets hundreds of meters below.
“Sorry, I might have used a bit too much force…” Maintaining his kicking motion, Caesar, still a bit dumbfounded, realized that activating the energy conversion within his body was like flipping a switch, allowing him to unleash Superman-like destructive power far beyond his own physique.
Without saying much, Raina’s face turned cold and stern. She quickly stood up from her office chair, her slender palms clenched in the restless air, and her pitch-black eyes emitted dazzling silver light.
‘Hum—’
An invisible wave of telekinetic force rippled through the office, swiftly fixing all the scenes of destruction that were spiraling out of control. The shattered sofa debris and glass shards were all fixed in mid-air, then returned to the room along the original trajectory of their flight.
In the perfectly controlled realm of telekinesis, it was as if time had rolled back one or two seconds, and all the damaged objects were forcefully pieced back together into their original form.
“Phew.”
After completing all this, Raina finally breathed a sigh of relief. She stared directly at Caesar with a look of disbelief, observing his small body, which was no different from that of an ordinary human baby. It was difficult to imagine why such Superman-like power was contained within him.
“Boss, I finally understand,” Raina shook her head in amazement after watching for a while.
“Understand what?” Caesar hovered in the air, gradually becoming proficient in his slow flight, and landed lightly back on the desk.
“I now understand why you said earlier that this body alone could make even the gods fear,” Raina said incredulously. “You’re only one year old now, and you’ve already surprised me. I can’t imagine reaching such a powerful level as an adult.”
“Neither can I,” Caesar chuckled like silver bells, childish yet domineering. “But I hope those alien races will come to Earth early to play, otherwise, it will be too boring by the time I finish my growth period.”
If others were to witness this scene, they would undoubtedly think it was just the fanciful talk of a little kid.
Only Raina knew that this was an unquestionable future reality.
With the solid foundation of dark energy stabilizing his body and living on Earth where solar energy was abundant, Caesar’s body strengthened and improved every day. His initial awakening abilities would continue to be controlled, developed, and expanded until he exhausted all the potential of the Kryptonian genes.
With no natural enemies in his Kryptonian bloodline, he would be invincible on Earth once he reached adulthood. This was not just a joke. After all, less than a year old now, Caesar could basically walk sideways on Earth’s native soil.
Of course, all this was thanks to Dormammu, his foster mother across the world.
In his heart, Caesar silently thanked Dormammu for fostering him across the world.
“Boss, what are your plans next? Do you plan to continue living in the Stark Tower to continue growing?” Raina asked.
“Don’t be silly, I’ve been in hibernation for half a year. How could I continue to stay in this greenhouse?” Caesar pouted, vigorously clenching his small fists, and with enthusiasm in his baby-like voice, he said, “Kryptonians are a warrior race. Just as I’ve awakened some of my abilities, I need to hone them through some real combat.”
“Shall I arrange for some Cardinal Disciples for your training?” Raina immediately offered a suggestion.
“Raina.” Caesar looked at Raina, and asked with a hint of irritation, “Do you think those Cardinal Disciples would take me seriously and spar with me?”
Raina paused for a moment, then quickly realized, and nodded with a wry smile, “You’re right.”
Ignoring Caesar’s embarrassing age, there wasn’t a single Cardinal Disciple bold enough to touch him as the Master of the Carl Family, let alone engage in real combat with him.
“Then let me…”
As Raina began to speak, Caesar knew what she wanted to say. He shook his head and interrupted her, “No. Now, all the important work of the Carl Family and Stark Industries rests solely on you, right? You don’t have time to spar with me.”
“Then who do you want to spar with?” Raina asked in surprise, genuinely puzzled this time.
“It’s simple, there is no need to go out of your or my way to find someone.”
Caesar smiled inexplicably, pondering like a conspiracy theorist, “As long as I maintain a certain level of exposure in the outside world. When my original self was around, many people probably hid in the dark corners of the world and didn’t dare to come out. Now that I’ve exchanged for this seemingly weaker body, I bet some people won’t be able to resist coming out to attack me.”
Including himself in the calculations, Caesar became more excited as he spoke. He lightly licked his lips and said, “As the heir of Stark Industries, the Master of the Carl Family, and the son of the Symbol of Peace, these identities will probably attract quite a few people itching to make a move.”
“Who would dare?” Raina raised her eyebrows coldly, exuding a chilling aura that kept outsiders at bay.
“Who knows, but this is their only chance for revenge against me. No matter how you look at it, it’s too easy for them to attack a one-year-old infant.”
Deciding to take advantage of his current childlike body, Caesar planned to stroll around in the outside world and lure out enemies of the Carl Family or former adversaries. He hardly needed to disguise himself; he was naturally adept at playing the role of a lamb in wolf’s clothing.
After a moment of contemplation, Raina agreed, “It’s possible, as long as we take enough security measures, there’s no problem with you freely moving around outside. However, you can’t go alone like this. We’ll need to find some people to act as your bodyguards and caretakers.”
“We don’t need many people, lest we scare away some mice. Just one person to accompany me for daily outings will do.”
As Caesar spoke these words, it was clear he already had someone in mind, a subtle, adorable curve forming at the corners of his petite mouth.
Half an hour later.
A knock sounded on the front door of the top-floor office. After Raina’s response from inside, the visitor opened the door and strode in briskly.
Eddie looked dusty, wearing a windbreaker over durable denim pants, leather motorcycle gloves, and a pair of muddy leather boots. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he sighed slightly with a hint of complaint, “Boss, what’s going on? I was sent to the outskirts of the city for reconnaissance work just yesterday, and now I’m called back suddenly.”
“Hmm?”
Eddie looked up, his voice abruptly cutting off. He saw Raina, as usual, sitting as the acting boss in her office chair. There was nothing unusual about that, but this time, there was a one-year-old child sitting on her lap, sucking on a lollipop.
Where did the child come from?
As Eddie looked at the child, the child also glanced at him, flashing a seemingly friendly and adorable smile.
At this moment, Raina got straight to the point and said, “Temporary Worker 001. All your previous missions have been canceled. Starting today, you only have one mission.”
“What mission?” Eddie’s body trembled involuntarily, and even Venom within him conjured up an extremely ominous premonition.
