I'm not Spider-Man, even though I'm parasitized by an alien!

"Boom"!

The metal container made a loud noise.

The cannibal smashed the metal box, causing it to deform.

The severely wounded ogre let out a pitiful howl and, with all its might, raised its arm to strike Peter.

Peter grabbed his arm and broke it.

Sarah Jane, standing nearby, was stunned by what she saw.

She never expected that the mysterious person who suddenly appeared would be able to brutally kill the monster in front of her.

When did humans reach the top of the food chain?!

While Sarah Jane was still in shock, Peter broke the ogre's arm and threw a punch.

The fangs in the ogre's mouth were instantly broken off.

Peter then grabbed the man's throat and, under the cannibal's terrified gaze, snapped it with a "crack".

Sarah Jane: "?!"

Peter tossed the limp corpse of the cannibal to the ground, then, with his left hand on his chin, stared at the body in deep thought.

Speaking of which, last night when I was riding in Uncle Wright's truck, I saw a deer whose blood had been drained and whose skin had bite marks.

Was that deer also drained of its blood by this cannibal?

There's no Spider-Man in this city, but there are cannibals with a spider-like aura, so what exactly happened?

"Who are you?"

Sarah Jane's voice interrupted his thoughts.

Peter turned around and found Sarah Jane staring at him in shock.

With her black and red hair and delicate features, she looked like the kind of girl who was most popular in school and would be the captain of the cheerleading squad.

As Peter was sizing up the other person, Sarah Jane also saw Peter's appearance in the dim light.

"Barton!"

Upon seeing Peter's striking resemblance to his neighbor, Barton Parton, Sarah Jane covered her mouth.

But she soon realized something was wrong.

Barton and the mysterious man in front of him looked different, and the auras they exuded were also different.

Peter was somewhat surprised to hear the other person call out Barton's name.

Does the other person know about themselves in this world?!

"You know Patton?"

“Yes, he is my neighbor. I am Sarah, Sarah Jane Wharton.”

Peter paused for a moment when the other person introduced herself as Sarah Jane.

Peter looked thoughtfully at the other person's hair, which was half-dyed black but still had wine-red roots.

Is this woman an alternate version of MJ from another world?

"Thank you for saving me. But... what exactly was that monster? How did you manage to do that?"

After thanking Peter, Sarah Jane asked him a series of questions.

"do not know."

Peter shook his head and asked her, "Do you know where Barton is?"

When Peter asked her where Barton was, she replied blankly, "I don't know, he hasn't been to school for two days."

After easing her tension, she suddenly became interested in the mysterious person in front of her who could kill the cannibal.

Is he a superhero? Or an exorcist who specializes in subduing monsters?

Sarah Jane was thinking, and took a breath, when she suddenly felt her legs were sore that she could hardly stand.

She steadied herself and was about to ask Peter why he was looking for Barton when she suddenly heard him say to her, "You're bleeding."

Upon hearing Peter's words, she looked at her arm.

There is a small wound on my arm.

I just jumped over the barbed wire fence, and it's possible that the fence tore open.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury," Sarah Jane said, trying to appear nonchalant.

After hesitating for a moment, she pressed her fingers against her wound and asked Peter, "Could you give me a ride? I mean, I'm a little unsure how to get home."

Peter happened to have something to ask this otherworldly Mary Jane counterpart, so he nodded in agreement.

Although it was somewhat dangerous to let such a mysterious and powerful being into her home, Sarah Jane let Peter into her room because of her trust in him.

After learning that Peter was temporarily homeless, she invited him to stay at her home.

Are your parents not home?

Peter looked at the furnishings in the room and asked her.

"They are away on a business trip and probably won't be back for a while."

Sarah Jane poured Peter a cup of coffee, then sat down and explained.

"Then why did you invite me in? Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?"

Peter took the coffee and asked her.

"It doesn't seem like it. Your demeanor seems out of place here. You're more like a mysterious visitor who has stumbled upon this place than an unwelcome guest."

Sarah Jane shrugged. "I'm more afraid of that cannibal than of you being a bad person. Besides, you saved me. I don't believe you're that kind of bad person."

Peter didn't speak, but looked around at his surroundings.

Several oil paintings and posters promoting animal protection were displayed on the wall.

Peter, holding a cup of coffee, asked her, "Are you an animal rights activist?"

"Yes, to be precise, I am a biodiversity conservationist."

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course, in modern society, as long as a person is alive, he will inevitably take away the right to live of other animals, no matter what lifestyle he adopts."

“All normal people have empathy, but in the minds of ordinary people, there is a clear boundary between humans and other animals. This boundary is very blurred in the minds of animal rights activists, so it is difficult for them and non-animal rights activists to understand each other. But I advocate protecting species while also protecting human rights.”

Sarah Jane spoke while glancing at Peter.

Peter was found staring at a spider advertisement poster on the wall.

She explained to Peter, “This is a hermit spider exhibited by the Al Industries Group. It’s an endangered spider that is of great research value. My friend and I tried to release the spider, but we failed in the end.”

Spiders at the exhibition?

Peter asked Sarah Jane, "Has anyone been bitten by this spider?"

Sarah Jane paused for a moment, "I...I don't know, it was Barton who was in charge of opening the glass case."

"Patton?"

Peter nodded and fell into deep thought.

"Look who's here? Our Stutterer Dun has arrived."

The following day, on campus, Barton, who hadn't been seen for a long time, appeared in front of a locker in the corridor.

The cabinet was opened a crack, revealing a spider web inside.

A lifeless pigeon was entangled in a spider web.

That was the food he had hunted, which he used for his breakfast.

His eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light as he stared at his prey in the cupboard.

However, just as he opened the locker, a strong student slammed the door shut.

Wearing sunglasses and carrying a backpack, Barton looked at the bully who used to harass him.

"Who is our stuttering John trying to impress with those sunglasses?!"

Flag continued to mock Barton in his usual tone.

Unexpectedly, Barton, who hadn't dared to talk back before, said to him, "Do you want to die, Flagg?"

"what?"

Flagg stared at Barton. "What did you say?"

"I'm telling you, the smell of your breath is disgusting!"

Barton said, enunciating each word clearly, "Don't you brush your teeth in the morning?"

"Very well, you've successfully angered me. I'm going to let you taste the power of my fists! You damn stuttering bastard!"

But to his surprise, Barton, who used to crouch down in fear whenever he showed his fist, did not show any panic. Instead, he grabbed Barton's arm.

"What do you want to do?"

Flagg was intimidated by his imposing manner, and his speech became somewhat stammering.

He soon realized that he was ashamed of his current appearance.

He gritted his teeth and tried to pull his arm out of the other person's grasp.

The result was that Patton's strength was incredible; no matter how much force he exerted, his opponent remained completely unmoved.

“I’ve seen through you, Flagg. You’re not brave at all.”

Barton snorted coldly, shook off the other man's arm, and said to him in a chilling tone, "This place is not suitable for fighting. Let's meet in the locker room at noon. Come over if you dare."

Flag felt a burning pain in his arm.

Although he sensed that something was off about Patton, he didn't back down in order not to lose face.
