When I regained consciousness, I noticed I was sitting in a rocking chair outside a house that looked like it was on a farm.
I blinked for a few seconds, staring at the worn wood of the porch.
‘Wait… a farm?’
I stood up a bit dazed, stretching my arms, and looked around.
The landscape was calm, rural, but what really caught my attention were some papers sitting on a small table near the chair.
When I went over to check them, I noticed they were legal and identity documents.
“Conner Blake…,” I murmured, reading the name of this new life that ROB had assigned me.
Apparently, that damn cosmic being had taken care of all the paperwork and property ownership so I wouldn’t have legal problems on Earth.
Just as I was about to keep going through the documents to see what else had been left for me, I caught my reflection out of the corner of my eye in the house window glass.
I was completely stunned.
The reflection showed a ridiculously handsome young man, about eighteen years old, with intense red hair and deep blue eyes mixed with purple that gave him a mystical aura.
“Wow…
I’m handsome,” Conner Blake exclaimed in surprise, touching his jaw.
But I couldn’t keep admiring my new and improved appearance, because the sharp, piercing cry of a baby broke the silence of the place and my thoughts, making me jump in shock.
“Waaah!
Waaah!”
The sound was coming directly from inside the house.
With some hesitation, I crossed the door and walked toward the room where the crying was coming from.
When I peeked in and saw what was causing the noise, I was stunned.
I immediately tensed up, swallowing slowly.
The memories of the roulette came back to me all at once: the supposed “two companions” I had gotten in the draw.
‘Shit.
Brightburn and Homelander.’
I looked for a few seconds at the babies kicking in their respective cribs.
“They’re only a few months old…,” I murmured, as I carefully approached the two little ones.
Seeing them so helpless, a realization hit me.
“Damn…
so that’s what ROB meant about helping me make them loyal.
He basically wanted me to raise them from infancy.”
I let out a sigh full of exasperation, but then tried to see the positive side.
“Well, thinking about it, it’s not so bad.
If I raise them properly from the start, they’ll be good people, good lawful citizens like Superman.
They could even be my teammates in the future.
Speaking of which…
where in the timeline am I?
Has Superman already been born?
Or has the Justice League already formed?
I’ll have to figure that out later.”
“Wow…
you didn’t waste any time.
You barely arrived on this planet and you’ve already fathered two babies for our species.”
A mature female voice, full of sensual authority, came from behind me.
I turned so fast I almost broke the wooden floor.
At the entrance of the house were two women who left me breathless.
On the left, an imposing woman with platinum blonde bob-cut hair, electric blue eyes, and a tight white suit with a red cape draped over one shoulder.
To the right, there was another woman with short black hair, dressed in a blue suit with an “S” on her chest, whose mere presence radiated the aura of an unstoppable warrior.
Although it took me a moment to recognize the second one due to multiverse variations, after a few seconds I identified her.
Those two were Power Girl and Superwoman.
“Who…?”, I managed to say.
I knew perfectly well who they were in the comics, but I had no idea what mental configuration they had right now, nor what kind of alterations ROB might have made to them.
The God had already turned my two powerful companions into babies, but I didn’t know what was going on with these two beauties.
“The trip from Krypton has been chaotic, my love.
I was very scared when we got separated along the way, I thought something might have happened to you.
Luckily you were safe and even arrived before us,” said Superwoman, Laurel, stepping forward.
She gently caressed my cheek, a softness that contrasted sharply with the overwhelming power I knew she possessed.
“Who would’ve thought it was true…
I’m sorry I didn’t trust you from the beginning, but I’m glad we decided to take the chance.
It seems you were right, our world…” Laurel didn’t finish the sentence.
Her voice broke and her eyes began to tear up from the pain of losing her home.
Power Girl stepped forward with maturity and hugged her, comforting her against her chest.
Meanwhile, I blinked, processing all the information at maximum speed.
‘Wait…
ROB’s arrangement?’ I remembered the cosmic being’s last words in the void.
Apparently, ROB had implanted very specific false memories in them.
The fact that they found me just as they arrived on Earth was too much of a coincidence; ROB had definitely set up the entire scenario.
‘Looks like they really think I’m a native Kryptonian…
well, technically with this body they’re not entirely wrong.
But the funny thing is they act like they’re from the same world, when both come from completely different universes.
Did ROB give them legal identities similar to the ones he gave me, but in a Kryptonian version?
Whatever.
At least I understand the situation now: to them, the three of us are the last surviving Kryptonians who escaped together from the cataclysm.’
Clearing my throat, I let out a fake cough to break the ice and said: “I’m glad you’re okay…
by the way, these babies aren’t mine.”
“What a shame,” Superwoman muttered, visibly disappointed.
“Well,” Power Girl, Karen, interjected, crossing her arms with an arrogant smile.
Her eyes, however, shamelessly scanned my new body from top to bottom.
“Now that we’re safe on this planet, there’s no time for mourning.
As the last surviving Kryptonians, we have a mission.
It’s not just our obligation…
it’s our duty to ensure the survival of our species.”
“How?”, I asked reflexively, though I immediately regretted it, fearing the answer.
“Don’t play dumb,” Laurel smiled, stepping closer and reducing the personal space between us to zero, letting me feel her perfume.
“Our species is technically extinct and needs to be repopulated.
And since you’re the only male of our race…
Karen and I will fulfill our duty with you.
But, since we don’t yet know if Earthlings are genetically compatible, it’s not bad to try.
That’s why I suggest you also look for local concubines.
To start, take only about a hundred women.
If we later discover they’re compatible, it won’t be too late to take thousands more.”
I went completely blank.
My mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water; I wanted to say something, but my brain simply couldn’t find the words in the face of such madness.
‘What the hell happened here?’ I screamed mentally, panicking completely.
‘What kind of mental setup did it put in their heads?
Is this what it meant by no problems and that I would like it?
They want to use me as a mass breeding machine to rebuild the race!’
An awkward silence filled the room.
I didn’t know how to respond; I was genuinely afraid that if I said the wrong word, these two hyper-powered women would lock me in a basement and use me as a stud for life.
Fortunately for my mental health, two piercing cries broke the tense moment.
“Waaah…
Waaah!”
Brandon’s cry interrupted us just in time.
Next to him, John began floating unconsciously a few inches above his crib while sobbing loudly.
“Well…,” I said, trying to modulate my voice to sound like a mature leader and regain control of the situation before they started talking about the hundred women again.
“I’d like to continue this conversation later…
but I have to take care of the children.”
Laurel nodded seriously, though she looked at the babies with some confusion.
“Well, it’s not a bad idea to practice taking care of Earth babies.
That way we’ll be more experienced and ready for when we have our own.
After all, this wasn’t part of my military training on Krypton…,” Laurel commented, wrongly assuming they were ordinary humans.
“That’s a good idea,” Karen admitted, walking over to look at the two future tyrants in diapers with curiosity.
I looked at the two imposing women and then at the two little monsters crying.
What a great first day of transmigration.
I shook my head quickly to clear my nerves, recomposed myself, and turned to the girls with a determined smile.
“Alright, girls.
Welcome to Earth.”
