Marvel: All My Incarnations Are S-Class Villainesses

Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Consultant Reze’s First Job

Annie’s chewing motion paused slightly as she ate her steak.

She had always been most helpless against this kind of overly familiar social butterfly.

Although she found it troublesome and just wanted to finish her meal in peace, one doesn’t slap a smiling face.

Avril was very polite and quite beautiful; Annie really couldn’t find a reason to coldly drive her away.

Annie swallowed her food and responded vaguely, ”Um... it’s natural.”

”Oh my god! Truly a natural beauty...” Avril exaggeratedly covered her mouth, her eyes sparkling even more. ”It’s so enviable, unlike me...”

Avril was like an untiring lark, pulling Annie into a non-stop chatter.

As a low-energy person who occasionally suffered from low blood sugar, the type Annie was worst at dealing with was high-energy people like Avril.

Before two sentences were out, Annie’s gaze began to drift, entering power-saving mode.

However, she seemed to completely ignore the third person at the table.

Sitting opposite her, Camilla’s face was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

She gripped the stainless steel fork tightly, her knuckles turning white from the excessive force.

She stared at Avril, who had suddenly appeared, interrupted her momentum, and was now clinging to Annie like gum. She was so angry her lungs felt like they were about to burst.

”I was clearly here first...”

”Sitting with me, eating with me... the atmosphere was clearly building up to this...”

*Creeeeak—*

That poor stainless steel fork was gradually bent into a ninety-degree angle in Camilla’s hand.

While being pestered by Avril’s questions, Annie suddenly felt the temperature around her drop sharply, as a tangible wave of low pressure swept over from across the table.

She subconsciously looked up toward the opposite side.

She saw Camilla with her head lowered, her bangs covering half her face.

Her expression was hidden, but the aura of resentment radiating from her was ten times more terrifying than it had been on the training field earlier.

?

Annie blinked, looking completely bewildered.

What happened to this person now?

Wasn’t she fine just a moment ago?

Did the food not suit her taste?

Meanwhile, Avril seemed to have a stronger sense of obliviousness. She continued chatting in her own way and even reached out to try and touch Annie’s hair.

”Sigh...”

Annie sighed deeply in her heart.

Opposite her was a black cat with its fur standing on end, and to her left was an overly enthusiastic Golden Retriever... She looked down at the remaining mashed potatoes on her plate, feeling that her future academy life looked bleak.

Why was it so hard to just be a quiet, invisible person?

...Sumire, however, was not surprised by Annie’s popularity.

She withdrew her gaze and opened the ’shop’, wanting to see what items would be updated in the shop after obtaining Annie—

”Omni-Directional Mobility Gear (Item)”

”Price: 100 simulation values”

”Description: An epoch-making individual equipment developed by Paradis Island to combat Titans. It uses gas to drive fans and fire grappling hooks, allowing the user to perform high-speed three-dimensional movement between buildings or trees.”

So that’s what it is.

This was indeed a good item, arguably the crystallization of wisdom from the entire Titan World. Moreover, the price was not expensive, and it could greatly enhance the user’s mobility.

When Makima secretly raised a group of elite Agent guards within S.H.I.E.L.D., perhaps she could have them learn how to use the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear.

If they could master it, combined with modern weaponry, it would be more than just one level stronger.

Next was its upgraded violent accessory.

”Thunder Spear (Item)”

”Price: 300 simulation values”

”Description: Originally a heavy anti-hardening weapon developed to deal with the Armored Titan. This portable spear-like Rocket produces a violent zero-distance explosion after hitting the target and pulling the fuse, with enough power to shatter tank armor.”

Scrolling further down, there was a series of bottled drinks that would make one’s Sanity Value drop.

”Spinal Fluid: Jaw Titan (Consumable)”

”Price: 1000 simulation values”

”Description: Spinal Fluid extracted from the Jaw Titan. After Annie consumes it, she gains enhanced jaw bite force and claw sharpness.”

——————

”Spinal Fluid: Colossal Titan (Consumable)”

”Price: 3000 simulation values”

”Description: Spinal Fluid extracted from the Colossal Titan. After Annie consumes it, her size will increase several times, and she will gain explosive thermal energy control. Her transformation can trigger an Impact no less than a small nuclear explosion.”

As expected... It was well known that the Nine Titans could obtain partial abilities of other Titans by devouring or drinking their Spinal Fluid. The Female Titan happened to be the one with the strongest adaptability and best absorption effect in the entire series.

Of course, this also indirectly proved an awkward fact.

That was, the Female Titan was actually super weak... initially having almost no unique signature skills.

Partial hardening?

Annie only learned that after drinking the Armored Titan’s Spinal Fluid.

Self-sealing?

That was from drinking the War Hammer Titan’s Spinal Fluid.

In the original work, Annie drank the Spinal Fluid of many people to possess their incomplete abilities.

Jaw Titan (Bottom Left), Colossal Titan (Top Right), Armored Titan (Bottom Right), War Hammer Titan (Middle Left)

The only advantage of the Female Titan might be... a good figure? She couldn’t even be considered good-looking.

After all, the Female Titan’s appearance changed based on the user, and there had been plenty of bizarre-looking Female Titans in history.

They’re not even human anymore QAQ

One could only say that the Female Titan was weak, but the ”pilot” Annie Leonhart was too overpowered.

Eye bleach

However, there was still good news.

Because Annie herself was a C-rank Incarnation, the price to upgrade her to B-rank was very low. Sumire’s gaze fell to the bottom of the list—

”Exclusive Upgrade: Female Titan (B-rank)”

”Price: 1000 simulation values”

It was quite cheap; Sumire now had a full total of about four thousand five hundred simulation values.

But even without the Titan power, Annie’s own level was enough to dominate the S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy.

It wouldn’t be too late to upgrade her temporarily when truly needed.

She didn’t know if it was due to her personality.

She had a bit of a hoarding habit. When she had money or simulation values, her first thought was to save them for a rainy day rather than spending them impulsively, unless it was something particularly critical.

This was likely the main reason she could survive in Hell’s Kitchen for so many years without starving... Meanwhile, on the other side, in Manhattan, New York, was an inconspicuous old Russian restaurant.

Reze didn’t go to work at McDonalds today.

Wearing a set of light casual clothes and a baseball cap to hide her hair color, she pushed open the wooden door with a hanging wind chime.

In a booth in the corner, Natasha looked rarely relaxed.

Since their last meeting in Queens, the relationship between the two had remained quite good.

Even though Natasha was a busy person flying all over the World, it didn’t stop them from occasionally texting.

Or like now, taking advantage of Natasha’s break back in the country to grab a meal.

However, based on Sumire’s understanding of Natasha, this clearly couldn’t be just an ordinary meal... As a S.H.I.E.L.D. consultant, Fury couldn’t possibly let Reze draw a salary for nothing.

Obvsiouly, as 2012 approached, Reze’s first job was coming...
