Marvel: The Superman Survival Guide

Chapter 47 Confession

Jessica has been a little worried lately. With continuous training, she has found that her strength and speed have improved. Of course, the improvement in speed is not much, so there is no need to worry about that, but her strength has increased.

Although her control had improved, her strength had increased again, which worried her.

"Tracy, my strength has increased again." She had invited Tracy to lunch that day, hoping she could help her think of a solution.

Tracy noticed Jessica's anxiety and said, "You should be honest."

"But I'm afraid. I don't know what Lin will think," Jessica said irritably. "Do you understand if he's afraid of me?"

"Of course I understand, but it was bound to happen sooner or later," Tracy said. "Instead of getting frustrated here, it's better to just say it directly. Otherwise, the longer it goes on, the worse things might get."

"Besides, he might not even care. After all, he likes you so much, and love can encompass everything."

Jessica frowned, unable to make up her mind. She was worried that Link would look at her strangely, which was something she couldn't accept.

……

Link also sensed that Jessica had been having some emotional issues lately. She was trying her best to control her emotions, but since they spent so much time together, Link was the most sensitive to Jessica's emotions.

That evening, after dinner, the two lay cuddled on the sofa watching TV. Link asked, "Honey, what's wrong with you lately?"

"You seem very agitated. Are you in trouble?"

"..." Jessica's body visibly stiffened, and she began to struggle internally. "Lin, what would you think if I were a little different from you?"

Finally, she asked the question.

"Different?" Link chuckled inwardly, but it was time to be honest with Jessica. Otherwise, he worried that she might develop depression, which would be the worst-case scenario.

"Yes, I might be a little different from you." Jessica's voice was very soft, and most people might not even be able to hear it.

"Tell me about it!" Link asked.

"I am very strong!" Jessica said.

"Really?" Link asked curiously. "I don't believe it!"

Jessica sat up from Link's arms, then grabbed one leg of the coffee table and lifted it up with one hand, keeping it stable without the contents falling over.

He then gently placed it down, looked at Link, and asked, "Did you see that?"

She was very nervous, but what Link did next shocked her immensely.

Link reached out and grabbed one of the coffee table legs, lifting it up steadily without the contents falling over. Finally, he put it down, and Jessica stared wide-eyed with her mouth agape.

Link replied, "Isn't it the same?"

"This is impossible..." Jessica exclaimed in disbelief. "It's made of wood, and the tabletop is marble..."

Link burst out laughing, "Haha~ Jessica, you're not the only one in this world who's special."

"I find it adorable to see how restrained you are every time you exercise."

"You..." Jessica blushed and pounced on Link, kissing him on the lips for a long while before pulling away. "Today, I want to be on top!"

The two continued their entanglement until they reached the bedroom, where Jessica acted wildly, releasing her pent-up emotions.

Fortunately, the apartment building was sturdy enough, and the bed was also sturdy enough, otherwise it could have been easy for something to happen.

In the past, the two of them would usually exercise for more than an hour, but today it only took half an hour, but it was much more enjoyable.

"Phew..." Jessica, drenched in sweat, nestled against Link's chest. Only then did she ask, "What happened to you?"

"I'm Superman!" Link exclaimed.

"I'm asking you seriously," Jessica said, sounding a little unhappy.

"I'm serious!" Link hugged Jessica with both hands, then his body floated up and flew towards the bathroom. Jessica was stunned for a long time.

Once inside the bathroom, Link finally stepped down, stood under the shower, and turned it on.

"It's really true?" Jessica only came to her senses after being drenched in hot water. "Is that you in the comic?"

"No, I'm not a Kryptonian." Link turned back to fill the bathtub. "Don't be surprised. You don't understand the true nature of this world. I'll train you from now on!"

"Your control over your power is too poor. Although you don't need to fight, you still need to protect yourself."

"Okay!" Jessica was finally relieved. She wrapped her arms around Link's neck and clamped her legs around his waist, reigniting the conflict.

Link quickly took insurance measures; he didn't want to be a father yet!

……

The next day, after getting up, the two went to the foundation to arrange some matters. Because they were working together with the Vanessa Foundation, there was still a lot to do.

After that, Link took Jessica to find a factory; they needed an abandoned factory to renovate.

This will be where Link trains Jessica. Although she had a coach before, she couldn't spar with him or hit the punching bag herself, so her punches and power couldn't be controlled.

Link believes that using firearms is the best option, as Jessica only needs to protect herself for the time being.

However, after looking at some places, Link found that they were not ideal, namely that the walls were too thin. He decided it would be better to buy land and rebuild them himself.

He needs thick walls so that the house won't collapse when the two fight.

Furthermore, strict confidentiality measures were needed to prevent anyone from discovering their secret. So Link bought a warehouse near the apartment, which wasn't very large, and demolished it to rebuild it.

The building was rebuilt under the name of a private gym, with one basement level and one above-ground level. However, the ceiling height on the ground floor is designed to be very high, reaching ten meters.

There are no windows. Central air conditioning will be installed here. The entire structure is made of reinforced concrete, and there is only one entrance.

The basement level is the shooting range, which needs to be soundproofed and secure, as firearms will be stored there in the future.

The construction company in charge didn't suspect anything. After all, there was a shooting range, so such a request was reasonable. Isn't it reasonable for a rich person to build a shooting range for himself in the city?

Jessica also canceled her personal trainer, since personal trainers are not safe and could easily discover her secrets.

The reason this place was built relatively high was so that Jessica could practice jumping and control the height and distance of her jumps.

There are also various high-altitude maneuvers to increase her flexibility.
