Urban Plundering: I Corrupted The System!
Chapter 469 - 469: The World Watches

"Good morning, beautiful chaos demons!" Nyxavere chirped at her camera, which was positioned to capture the palace's breakfast area in all its cosmic glory. "Welcome back to another episode of 'My Family Runs the Universe and I Have the Receipts.'"

The chat was already moving at light speed, thousands of messages flooding in as viewers caught sight of the family gathering. And honestly? They had good reason to lose their minds.

**xXGamerGodXx:** "HOLY SHIT WHO IS THAT GUY"

**PrincessVibes:** "THE DARK HAIRED MAN IS LITERALLY PERFECT WHAT THE HELL"

**BookwormBae:** "Isn't that her dad??? How does he look like that???"

**CoffeeLover2024:** "SIR PLEASE ONE CHANCE"

**RandomUser847:** "Nyxavere your dad could literally end me and I'd thank him"

Nyxavere glanced at the chat and snorted. "Yeah, yeah, Dad's hot. We get it. Moving on before you all start a religion about his cheekbones."

In the background, Parker—looking like he'd stepped out of some cosmic fashion magazine despite literally just waking up—raised an eyebrow at the camera. The viewers could see him clearly in this moment, registering his impossible beauty, but within minutes the details would slip away, leaving only vague impressions of overwhelming attractiveness.

"Okay, so people keep asking me to explain the whole supernatural situation," Nyxavere continued, gesturing with her coffee cup. "And since apparently the internet is having a collective meltdown, let me break it down for you."

She took a sip and grinned. "First off—yeah, supernaturals are real. Always have been. All those myths and legends? Not myths. Historical documentaries. The Greek gods? Real. Norse pantheon? Real. Every hero story you learned in school? Actually happened."

**HistoryNerd101:** "YOU'RE TELLING ME HERCULES WE SAW IS REAL???"

**VikingFan92:** "WHAT ABOUT THOR??? LOKI???"

**GreekMythFan:** "Perseus?? Achilles?? THEY'RE ALIVE???"

"Oh, you want specifics?" Nyxavere's grin turned wicked. "Remember Captain Sun? The guy who's did the superhero shit for the past few weeks, saving the people in a building? That's Perseus. Actual Perseus, son of Zeus, slayer of Medusa. And that dude who stopped the runaway train in Canada last month? Hercules. Yeah, the same Hercules my dad casually yeeted into next week."

The family in the background collectively rolled their eyes. Maya shook her head with fond exasperation while Zhang Ruoyun looked like she was contemplating the cosmic implications of a teenager revealing state secrets over breakfast.

**CanadianWitness:** *THE TRAIN HERO WAS HERCULES???"

**SuperheroFan88:** "PERSEUS IS CAPTAIN SUN I'M SCREAMING"

**EgyptologyStudent:** "Ma'at was real too??? The Egyptian goddess???"

**MindBlown2024:** "Your dad YEETED HERCULES??? HERCULES???"

"And that's not even the fun part," Nyxavere continued, clearly enjoying the chaos she was causing. "See, while these Champions have been running around playing hero, there are families—the Origin Families—who've been protecting Earth for centuries from actual cosmic threats."

She pointed casually at Annabelle, who was dramatically draped across a chaise lounge looking perfectly annoyed at being included in the exposition. "That's Annabelle, she's from the Voidhowl family. They're wolves, and their job is basically keeping humanity alive—food production, energy systems, healing, all the survival stuff. Without them, you'd all be dead from starvation or pandemic disease decades ago."

**WolfLover2024:** "SHE'S A WEREWOLF???"

**SurvivalPrepper:** "They control our FOOD SUPPLY???"

**MedStudent2024:** "ACTUAL WEREWOLVES MANAGE HEALTHCARE???"

Nyxavere didn't explain the werewolf shit and more, then gestured toward Zhang Ruoyun, who was maintaining perfect composure despite being outed to millions of viewers.

"And that gorgeous woman trying to pretend she's not listening? That's Zhang Ruoyun from the Zhang family. They don't just protect humans—they lead entire supernatural armies, coordinate between different species, basically act as the cosmic UN. Every time beings try to invade or aliens get rowdy, the Zhangs are the ones organizing the defense."

**MilitaryBrat:** "SHE LEADS SUPERNATURAL ARMIES???"

**AlienTheory2024:** "DEMONS AND ALIENS ARE REAL TOO???"

**CosmicUN:** "The way she's sitting is intimidating and I'm into it"

"Then you've got the Kingswells," Nyxavere continued, warming to her topic. "Elves who run all digital infrastructure and information control. Every time you use the internet without accidentally stumbling onto footage of, say, a dragon burning down a city, that's them keeping things filtered. And the Ravencrofts—witches who control global economics, make sure supernatural activities don't crash the world economy every Tuesday."

**TechBro2024:** ELVES RUN THE INTERNET???"

**StockTrader88:** "WITCHES CONTROL THE ECONOMY???"

**DragonWatcher:** "There are DRAGONS burning down cities somewhere???"

"Oh, and the Dravens," she added with a grin. "Shadow Lords who handle all the really nasty stuff—assassination, crime networks, making sure the monsters that ACTUALLY want to eat humans don't get the chance. Basically, they're cosmic-level pest control for you Earthlings."

"And all of these families?" Nyxavere spread her arms wide, encompassing the room. "Creations of my dad. He basically built the entire supernatural protection network because apparently humans need babysitters on a cosmic scale."

The family's collective eye-rolling intensified. Parker looked like he was questioning every life choice that had led to his daughter livestreaming cosmic state secrets to millions of people.

**Builder2024:** "HER DAD CREATED THE ORIGIN FAMILIES???"

**Need:** "We need cosmic babysitters??? That's embarrassing"

**NetworkGeek:** "This family is literally running the world"

But then someone with actual brain cells entered the chat.

**PhilosophyStudent:** "Wait hold up. If heroes exist and gods are real, why did your dad fight Hercules? Aren't they supposed to be on the same side protecting humanity?"

Nyxavere's expression grew more serious, though her casual tone didn't change. "Oh, that's where it gets spicy. See, there's this whole backstory involving my dad and the Olympian gods from his past life."

**Realgod:** "PAST LIFE??? REINCARNATION IS REAL???"

**GreekMythology:** "HER DAD HAS BEEF WITH ZEUS???"

**TeaSpiller88:** "THE BACKSTORY PLEASE NYXAVERE WE'RE BEGGING."

**SoapOperaFan:** "Past life drama with gods??? This is better than any TV show"

"Yeah, so apparently in a previous incarnation, the Olympians really screwed over my dad. And when they realized he was back—with all his memories and significantly more power—they went into full panic mode."

She leaned forward conspiratorially. "Now here's where it gets really fucked up. Instead of apologizing or trying to make things right, they decided to create an army of human shields."

**HumanS20:** "WHAT DO YOU MEAN HUMAN SHIELDS???"

**Ethics90:** "That sounds incredibly fucked up"

**MoralOutrage88:** "They used HUMANS as shields???"

"See, there are these cosmic forces—think of them as universe-ending viruses that want to destroy all of existence. Not just Earth, not just our reality, but everything. Past, present, future, every dimension, every possibility—complete annihilation."

Nyxavere's voice grew darker. "These things are so dangerous that even gods run screaming when they show up. We're talking about entities that can erase concepts from existence. Like, they could delete the idea of 'hope' and suddenly nobody in any reality would remember what hope felt like."

**Conceptman:** "They can delete IDEAS???"

**ExisterHorror:** "That's the most terrifying thing I've ever heard. Thought I don't know how it even works."

**HopeOfGee:** "Imagine forgetting what hope is holy shit."

**FeWords:** *So they're like cosmic cancer???*

"Exactly," Nyxavere nodded grimly. "Now, these entities had been trying to get into our reality for ages, but they needed anchors—basically doorways. And the gods, in their infinite panic about my dad returning, got played. They thought they were blessing humans with power to fight him, but they were actually creating gateway hosts."

**HotsCheek:** "The blessed humans were DOORWAYS???"

**Cosmicbeliever:** "The gods got played that hard???"

**AnchorPoints:** "So every blessing was a potential invasion point???"

"Long story short," Nyxavere continued, "the gods created an army of potentially corrupted humans, thinking these 'Blessed' could somehow stall or stop my dad. They literally weaponized innocent people and pointed them at him, while the real threat was using those same people as doorways to invade our reality."

The chat erupted with outrage.

**Sarz:** "THEY TURNED PEOPLE INTO WEAPONS???"

**Innocence** "Those blessed humans had no idea what was happening to them*

**Cosmicbeliever:** "The gods used humans as pawns in their fear response"

**MaBlessing:** "They thought they were getting gifts but were being turned into invasion points."
