At the top floor of Oscorp Tower.
A weary Norman Osborn stared at his refle in the shattered mirror.
Guilt and awisted his face.
The Green Goblin's hoverboard, mask, and suit y scattered on the floor!
Sweat dripped from his forehead, soaking his bangs.
"What… what have I done!!!"
"You won't trol me anymore!!!"
He frantically puhe mirror, not g as shards of gss cut his hands.
As the CEO of a billion-dolr corporation, Osborn should have been living his best life. But a hereditary disease had haunted his family feions. Both his father and grandfather had died young.
The disease was incurable, and trag it ractically a death sentenow in his middle age, Osborn's body was growing weaker by the day.
Years ago, he had assembled a research team to develop geigineering teology to extend his life. After years of research, there had been some progress, but not enough.
"Don't put all ys in one basket," they say.
While pursuiigineering, Osborn had also ducted other experiments. The armor he wore during the attaidtown Tech High was one such product.
inally desigo sustain life and slow the progression of his disease, the armor uedly granted him immense power. Unfortunately, it still couldn't save his life.
Then, a few days ago, he saw the Spider-Woman on the news and immediately ected her to the geically engineered spiders his pany had developed.
A b act had led to the disappearance of several transgenic spiders. The Spider-Woman was likely the result of one of those spiders.
By now, Osborn was on the brink of death. Though he appeared normal, he was at stant risk of dying at any moment!!
In this desperate state, Osborn forcibly ied himself with an experimental spider serum. The immature serum gave him incredible power, rivaling that of a superhero!
It stabilized his life, but his health tio deteriorate. Worse yet, the serum not only gave him superpowers but also birthed an alternate personality—the evil Osborn, the Green Goblin!!!
"You maniac!!! You attacked students!!!"
Osborn stood before the mirror, on the verge of a breakdown, his body trembling untrolbly!!!
"It was us, we killed those students!!!"
The refle in the mirror snarled back at him!!!
"All Oscorp employees have been sed, and ch the Spider-Woman's profile!!"
"So who else frequents the pany? That's right! The students!!!"
"Every day, tless students visit Oscorp for internships. Nearly every high school in New York has a partnership with us!!"
"We'll bomb them one by oil we find her!!!"
The Green Goblin in the mirror seemed to possess a hypnotic power.
Osborn's eyes gzed over as the battle between good and evil raged within him.
"What are you hesitating for?!"
"Only by obtaining Spider-Woman's blood we fully recover!!"
"Even if you don't care about yourself, or us, what about Harry?! Don't you care about him?!"
Osborn's nerves seemed to snap.
He muttered to himself, "Harry, my son…"
"No, I 't let him suffer from this cursed disease!!!"
Osborn's expression twisted into a grimace, slowly merging with the Green Goblin in the mirror.
…
Midtown Tech High School.
"Peter, you seem off. Were you scared by the Green Goblin?"
In the school cafeteria at noon, Gwen looked at Peter with .
He was scared…
But not by the Green Goblin.
It was the two options that had appeared before him.
Bee a superhero, or bee a vilinous superhero!
"Don't wwen, I'm fine."
"I'm going to take a nap. Don't worry about me!"
Peter left the cafeteria and found a safe .
In the eighteenth year of his life in this world, his cheat system had finally arrived.
[The Sin Punishment System]
[Punish sio earn points, which be exged for rewards.]
[Ohe host identifies someone as a criminal, they will be marked as such.]
[But first, you must choose your career path.]
[Superhero]
[Vilinous Superhero]
Peter instinctively wao choose "Superhero."
But just as he was about to firm, his hand froze.
He thought about Spider-Man's life—a true superhero, swingiween skyscrapers, tirelessly fighting crime.
But what did it get him in the end?
The loss of loved ohe separation from his beloved, and a career that went nowhere. He struggled to make ends meet by selling selfies, and even Aunt May's medical bills were a stant headache.
Every version of Spider-Man suffered.
The public's praise turo bme in an instant, all because of a lie spread by Mysterio.
"Why should the good guy always be the oh a gun to his head?"
Was this kind of superhero life really worth pursuing?
Why bother with such thankless work?!
In parison, being a vilinous superhero seemed like the better choice.
Save a few people when you're in a good mood.
When you're not, who cares about others' lives?
If I have no morals, no one hold me hostage.
Peter remembered his father from his past life always saying, "Be a person of high moral character."
But Peter never listeo his father.
So…
"I choose the Vilinous Superhero!!!"
