Superpowers abound. Villains rule the world. A transmigrated dork that has absolutely no idea what’s going on. 

Strong-armed by the Superhero Enhancement System into the thankless job of endlessly performing good deeds in a world where such actions are often met with violence, Lucas Lynn doesn't have much choice in regards to using his supposed gifts.

It’s bad enough having to pretend to be a supervillain, but how exactly does Boss System expect him to save the world with only the help of a homeless orphan, a dog that’s smarter than he is, and a yoyo? 

Oh, just trick some supervillains into becoming superheroes instead? You make it sound so easy!

'WHAT IN THE ACTUAL F-'

With this final thought, Lucas dies in a pool of his own blood on the sidewalk.

I'd Like to Change My Reincarnation Subscription, Please

While Lucas is preoccupied with longing for feline affection, a four-armed service bot approaches the group. 


“Greetings, honored guests. We’ve kept the side room empty for your visit… Unless you’d prefer seats in the open area?” it asks. 


‘Er, I guess Alley Cat warned ’em in advance?’ 


[It’s the courteous thing to do, given their… presence.] 


Lucas peels his eyes away from the nearest fuzzy friend-to-be as he turns to face Alley Cat, his gaze pausing on the service bot addressing them. 


‘Oh, izzat another one of 23’s, uh, siblins?’ 


After a flat mental “Oh,” Lucas speaks up. “I’m fine either way. Whichever you prefer, Alley Cat.” 


His attention promptly shifts back to the nearest kitty. 


[It is several years old, though, so it could have also plausibly attained sapience by now, or at least sentience. Regardless, I imagine Mind Flare knows better than to try to take it away from Alley Cat, even if it’s just a tangential relation.]
