Chapter 50 – Mutants Divide
Chapter 50 – Mutants Divide
Setting up a lab in Gotham City wasn’t a difficult task.
The Joker Gang provided the funding, and Wayne Enterprises handled the logistics. Anything he needed was easy to acquire—except for Vibranium, which was tightly controlled by Wakanda. Other than that, no matter how illegal or rare, nothing was truly out of reach in Gotham.
Once the lab was set up, Reid continued his role as Lex Luthor and got to work.
By now, he fully understood how his role-playing system differed from those in the novels he had read in his past life.
While the system granted progress percentages easily, the real challenge was completing the character’s missions—not just staying in role.
That meant he didn’t have to be overly cautious about staying in character at all times. Breaking character might lower his progress, but the right actions would quickly raise it again.
For example, if he could find a suitable superhuman to serve as Luthor’s rival, someone like Superman, his role play progress would soar.
Unfortunately, neither the cards he possessed nor the current state of the Marvel world provided a suitable “Superman" to act as Luthor’s rival.

Raven was concerned that their greatest asset, Jean, might abandon their ideals due to her infatuation with a human man.
Charles, however, seemed confident.

"I hope so."
Raven left, and Charles sat alone, quietly in his chair.
Despite the unexpected turn of events, everything was still relatively stable. Mutants were continuing to move toward a brighter future, but for some reason, Charles couldn't shake a feeling of unease in his heart.
'It feels like something's been overlooked, but... what could it be?'
......
At the same time, Reid had returned to New York City with Harley and his research results.

I edited the previous chapters and bolded the system texts. In the future I will follow this format.
