"A spin, huh... Let's see what I get." I pondered, my fingers hovering over the system's interface. With a slight smirk, I gave the command for the spin.
In an instant, a massive roulette wheel materialized before me, its presence almost overwhelming. The wheel stood tall, radiating an aura of chaos and curiosity. It was a vast, circular contraption, divided into countless segments—each one a doorway to the vast powers of the Marvel Universe, both from the cinematic world and the comics.
The wheel gleamed in a spectrum of colors, each hue representing the rarity of the rewards. Green, blue, purple, orange, red, silver, gold, and platinum—each shade reflected the different levels of power waiting to be unlocked. I couldn't help but feel a jolt of anticipation as I studied the wheel.
What caught my eye was the sheer scope of the powers listed. Among them was Tony Stark, one of the most brilliant minds in the MCU. His intelligence was an Orange rarity, meaning it was very rare. But my own powers, already unlocked, were pegged at Red—just one grade below Platinum. And then there was the highest tier, the Odin Force, resting at Platinum—Thor's powers at their peak.
There were other notable rewards too: Daredevil's night vision, Mysterio's illusions, Dormammu's powers, Magneto's magnetic manipulation, and Professor X's telepathy and mind control. But there was a catch—only one specific subpower would be granted per spin. So, if I were to land on Professor X, I'd only get one of his abilities: mind control, telepathy, or his mutant-locating skill.
At the bottom of the screen, a button read, "Insert the coin." I had no clue what that meant, but the button was... well, pressable. I pressed it, and the wheel began to spin, gradually picking up speed. The button changed its label to "Press to Stop the Spin."
I hesitated for a moment before slamming the button down. The wheel's rotation slowed, the colors blurring together as the momentum gradually died down.
The wheel passed through the Red grade—Super Strength, Energy Manipulation, and others. It slid into the Silver grade, brushing past Reality Warping and Cosmic Awareness. I felt my heartbeat quicken as the wheel slowed to a crawl.
And then... it stopped.
A Gold ability. "Divine Intimidation," the wheel read.
"What the hell?" I muttered under my breath. "What kind of power is that?"
A prompt appeared immediately, clicking it for further details.

**Divine Intimidation**
Type: Passive Ability
Category: Psychological / Mystical Power
Description:
This ability emanates an overwhelming aura of godlike authority, compelling all beings within its vicinity to experience crippling fear, awe, or submission. Those affected perceive the user as an unstoppable force of nature, making it nearly impossible to resist or act rationally. The intensity of the intimidation scales with the user's emotional state and intent, ranging from mild unease to absolute terror or reverence.
* Effects -
1. **Fear Induction**: Enemies are paralyzed, unable to think clearly or act against the user.
2. **Submission Aura**: Weaker beings instinctively kneel or bow, viewing the user as a divine entity.
3. **Will Suppression**: Strong-willed individuals and Supes may resist but suffer from hesitation and reduced effectiveness in combat.
4. **Command Amplification**: The user's voice becomes resonant, compelling individuals to follow commands without question if their mental defenses are weak.
5. **Atmospheric Manifestation**: The environment reacts to the user's presence, such as the sky darkening, winds howling, or an eerie silence amplifying the fear.
*Weaknesses:
- **Mental Shields**: Strong telepaths or those with mental fortitude (like Professor X or Doctor Strange) can resist or shield others.
- **Blind Faith**: Fanatical individuals may defy the effect if they believe they serve a cause greater than the user's perceived authority.
- **Range Limitations**: The aura weakens with distance and may not work through barriers or if the user is significantly injured.
This is an extended ability of the following Marvel Characters:
1. **Thor Odinson**
- As the God of Thunder, Thor naturally inspires fear and awe. In certain moments (like when wielding Mjolnir or during the God Blast), his sheer presence is enough to cower enemies or rally allies.
2. **Hela (Goddess of Death)**
- Hela has an overwhelming aura of death and inevitability, causing fear and submission in both mortals and gods.
- Seen in *Thor: Ragnarok,* where she makes Asgardian warriors surrender upon her arrival.
3. **The Celestials**
- Their immense size, power, and mysterious presence induce fear and reverence among all beings in the Marvel Universe.
4. **Thanos**
- With or without the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos's commanding presence strikes fear into the hearts of even the strongest heroes.
- His speeches often inspire terror while also compelling others to follow him.
5. **Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes)**
- The Penance Stare is an extension of this concept, forcing individuals to confront their sins, leaving them paralyzed in fear or regret.
"Warning: This ability can destabilize alliances and cause unintended fear in allies. Use sparingly to maintain control without sowing distrust."

That's... a lot.
"Well, that makes things easier." I chuckled to myself. "Probably I can be at the top of the food chain with this alone. Maybe eliminate around 99.8% of the superheroes in this world?" I muttered, feeling the power entering my body.
I could sense the strength surging through me, slowly but surely. It was like a dam breaking open inside me, filling me with newfound power.
I took a deep breath, testing the feeling, and walked out of the room. There was still work to be done.
The God had told me I'd be starting from the beginning of the plot, and while my body was native to this world, my identity was too. That made things a little easier.
I turned toward the store, Bryman Audio-Visual, heading there with purpose.
For those familiar with the show, this was the place where one of the main leads, Hughie Campbell, worked.
I saw him inside, standing with a woman, probably his soon-to-be-dead girlfriend. What was her name again? Something like Sloppy Ward? No... It was Robin. Robin Ward.
Robin's hand rested on Hughie's chest, her fingers gently brushing against the fabric of his shirt. Hughie, ever the gentle soul, was looking down at her with an expression I could only describe as soft. The kind of look you only see when someone's completely wrapped up in another person.
And then they kissed. It wasn't a rushed kiss, but slow, tender—like they had all the time in the world. Hughie's hand cradled Robin's face as if he were afraid to let go. I watched, my eyes narrowing slightly.
For a moment, I just stood there, hands stuffed in my pockets, observing their intimate moment. I didn't feel anything deep, just an odd sense of detachment.
The last kiss, huh? I thought with a wry smile. Kind of like Jesus's last supper?
I had no idea why that thought popped into my head. Maybe it was the absurdity of the situation or the knowledge that they had no idea what was coming for their future.
As their lips parted and they exchanged a few quiet words—something soft, something warm—I couldn't help but think, "How long would they remain untouched by the madness that was about to unfold?"
Robin and Hughie began to walk outside the store hand in hand.
With one last glance at the couple as they walked out of the store, I entered the store, my mind already refocused on what lay ahead. The plot was about to begin. And I had a feeling it was going to be anything but pretty.
