Being A Law God In Marvel!

...

Steve, who had just boarded the plane and was still on the runway, glanced back just in time to see the shark plummeting toward the ground, mouth wide open. Ryuji had just been struck by Ares, the God of War, and… was he dead? How could he have survived that? Steve felt a brief surge of relief, but it was quickly replaced by guilt at the thought.

Death was a part of the battlefield, especially when rivals met their end. But it didn't make it any easier.

Steve's discipline kicked in, and he slapped himself mentally. Ryuji had been a hero. He'd fallen in battle, struck down by Ares. Now, it was Steve's turn to take action.

Determined to make Ryuji's sacrifice count, Steve steeled himself, and the plane's engines roared to life. Slowly, it began its ascent.

Below, the three on the ground exchanged uneasy glances.

Samir: "My master's dead… What do we do now?"

Chief: "Ryuji couldn't stop Ares. It's up to Diana now."

Charlie: "It's over. We're all done for…"

After taking a series of brutal blows, Ares' resilience finally kicked in. His vision, which had been clouded, started to clear. It was still blurry, but now he could make out Diana's figure.

"Ahhhh!"

The sky seemed to explode in front of him.

Ares roared in fury: "I'll destroy you!"

With both arms raised to the heavens, a storm of lightning and thunder began to gather above. It converged into two massive bolts of energy that seemed capable of ripping the sky apart. The lightning came crashing down toward Ares.

Diana, still in mid-punch, was knocked back by the sheer force of the energy.

"Die, Diana!"

Two massive bolts of lightning streaked toward her, powerful enough to shatter mountains. But Ares, full of confidence, watched in disbelief as his greatest attack was absorbed by something… Diana's silver bracelets?

What were those?

The Silver Bracelets!

What kind of weapon was this?!

Were they some kind of a pair of legendary relics!?

"Goodbye… Ares."

"This… this can't be happening!"

Just like the movie, Diana leaped into the air, her silver bracelets colliding together. The absorbed lightning, combined with her own power, surged to a new height. The energy released from her hands created a thunderous shockwave that pierced through Ares' chest. The explosion that followed was massive.

Fate had shifted quickly. Ares had no idea that Ryuji's sacrifice would change the battle so dramatically.

Ares… was dead. The sky burned red as the sun rose, signaling a new day.

Diana slowly turned, and what she saw stopped her in her tracks.

!!!

Her expression shifted from confusion to disbelief as she looked at Ryuji.

"You… You're alive?" Diana's voice was filled with astonishment. How could he have survived such a devastating wound? If it had been anyone else, they would have been dead.

"Oh… haha, guess I got lucky," Ryuji said, rubbing the back of his head with an embarrassed grin. "Right when I was about to die, one foot already in the afterlife, I somehow ended up gaining Logan's [Self-Healing Factor], and well… here I am."

Just as his hand fell and his consciousness slipped away, a system voice echoed in his mind.

[Congratulations to the host. You have successfully obtained Logan Howlett's talent – [Talent: Self-Healing Factor]. Body transformation in progress… 10% → 20% → 30%… 90% → 100%. Transformation complete. Healing process activated.]

Meanwhile, Logan and Victor, standing nearby, stared in shock as they witnessed Ryuji's gaping chest wound begin to heal right before their eyes.

Why did this feel so familiar?

The [Self-Healing Factor] wasn't a simple talent you could use instantly. It was embedded in the body's DNA, requiring a transformation to fully activate. This wasn't like acquiring a skill such as [Rifle Mastery], which could be used immediately after gaining it.

No, this was a passive, transformative ability, and it took time for the body to adapt. Once the transformation was complete, the healing could begin.

Fortunately, the transformation process was quick—within a minute, Ryuji was fully healed. The brief time of unconsciousness only lasted a few moments.

Diana stood in awe as she watched Ryuji come back to life before her very eyes. Her expression quickly shifted from confusion to something else entirely, a soft smile tugging at her lips.

She moved toward him with speed, throwing herself into his arms and kissing him passionately.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Ryuji swore that this was the first time in his life that a girl kissed him so eagerly, and he wasn't sure how to react at first. He felt a little embarrassed, especially with two others watching them, but Diana seemed entirely unconcerned.

Soon, however, he stopped thinking about anything else and let himself fully enjoy the moment.

"System, thanks!"

[You're welcome! But please remember, host, this is the only time I'll be able to assist you.]

"Understood."

Ryuji felt a bit embarrassed. He had been naive, thinking that his "darkness" would make him invulnerable. Unfortunately, he didn't have enough time to perfect his magical abilities.

The "talented magic" he had acquired was a passive, growth-oriented ability. It would level up as he advanced through his ranks. For example, his [Dark Word Magic] was now at its peak for a hero. Once he reached the legendary rank, his magic would evolve to match.

However, spells bought from the store or talents acquired externally required specific talent points to upgrade.

The spells purchased from the store would remain fixed at the hero level until Ryuji advanced to the legendary rank. For example, [Eye of Reality] was currently at its peak for a hero. Even after ascending, it would still remain at hero-level peak power.

On the other hand, talents gained externally were more unpredictable. They were tied to the strength of the individual from whom the talent was taken.

For example, [Pistol: Beginner Level], [Rifle: Intermediate Level], and [Talent: Self-Healing Factor] were all abilities tied to the strength of their sources.

When Ryuji was on the verge of death, he had gained Logan's [Self-Healing Factor], but this wasn't enough to revive him instantly. The healing factor was only at an elite level, which meant it couldn't heal the fatal chest wound within five minutes. The system had intervened to upgrade it to the hero level, allowing Ryuji to heal and return to the fight.

As Ryuji and Diana continued their passionate kiss, a massive explosion rocked the sky, signaling that the battle was far from over.
