**Booming Sound——!**

The deafening roar of the plane's engines was followed by a thunderous explosion. Roger was jolted awake by the explosion that seemed to shatter his very skull, only to find himself astonishingly floating in mid-air.

"Wait... wait a minute... what's going on?!"

Above the dark clouds, Roger's body began to uncontrollably fall, and nearby, the shattered remains of the plane plummeted through the clouds with him. 

As Roger looked at the falling debris, confusion flashed in his eyes. In the next moment, a flood of memories merged with his consciousness, making him realize the current situation and his present identity.

Roger was no longer just Roger; he was now Homelander, the main antagonist from the TV series *The Boys*. 

Many might not recall *The Boys*, but simply put, it's a show about corrupt superheroes. When people think of superheroes, they usually think of characters like Iron Man, Captain America, Superman, or Batman—Marvel and DC icons. These heroes are righteous and revered as saviors, admired by all. 

On the surface, the superheroes in *The Boys* appear to be the same. They combat terrorists and criminals, displaying their great and noble sides under the spotlight, amassing countless fans and unparalleled popularity that surpasses ordinary celebrities.

However, behind the scenes, these heroes have their dark sides. Most of the heroes in *The Boys* are just a product of their company's hype. Acts of heroism, like saving people and defeating bank robbers, are mostly scripted by the company, and the heroes only need to perform.

The true selves of these heroes are far from the superhero image. Take Homelander, for instance. On the surface, Homelander is like Superman, saving people and being adored, but in reality, he is extremely arrogant.

In the superhero team "The Seven" from *The Boys*, Homelander doesn't tolerate any dissent. In the second season, this trait is even more pronounced. Meanwhile, this so-called superhero secretly engages in very dark activities or deals with shady matters for someone within the group.

For example, right now, because someone discovered some "secrets" of Vought International, Homelander took action to prevent the leak by causing the plane carrying that person to crash. Everyone on board, including a seven- or eight-year-old child, perished in the crash.

"But Madelyn shouldn't know about this."

Having acquired Homelander's memories and powers, Roger regained control of his body, hovering in the air with a gloomy expression as he watched the plane crash. 

Madelyn Stillwell was the vice president of Vought and was responsible for the daily operations of The Seven. She was someone Homelander liked, or rather, someone he liked unilaterally. Due to a lack of maternal affection in Homelander's childhood, he has a deep fondness for one thing: human breast milk. Madelyn, who recently gave birth, was in the lactation period, and since she also used her maternal affection to control Homelander, he liked her milk and consequently liked her as well.

Earlier, the people on the plane had used Vought's secrets to threaten Madelyn. Homelander, having overheard this through his super hearing, took it upon himself to eliminate the threat, so Madelyn was unaware of this action.

After all, Madelyn would not want Homelander to engage in such activities because if discovered, it would tarnish his superhero career and harm Vought's interests. But what's done is done, and Roger has no power to rewind time to save those people. If he had arrived a few minutes earlier, there might have been a chance to stop it. 

But now...

"Why did I become Homelander? I remember I was holding a Superman model back then."

Roger couldn't recall exactly how he had crossed over, only that before the transition, he had just received a Superman model and placed it with his Batman model at home. He wasn't a superhero fanatic, but his roommate was. His roommate liked Marvel and DC movies and had recommended *The Boys* to him. All the superhero figures at home, including the Superman model he received before crossing over, were bought by his roommate. 

Given that he had a Superman model, he should have become Superman, not Homelander. After all, Homelander is weaker than Superman and is a villain. It's not that Roger had anything against villains, but who wouldn't want to be a revered and admired hero?

"Headache... my head hurts so much. I should go back to sleep."

After thinking for a long time, Roger's head throbbed. He took one last look at the falling plane, reviewed Homelander's memories, and flew back home according to the memory's directions. 

Crossing over, becoming Homelander, and acquiring his powers should have excited Roger, but due to the merging of memories and the recent "trouble," he wasn't in the mood. He just wanted to get some sleep.

Homelander's issues were more than this, and if Roger truly wanted to become a superhero, he would have a lot of work ahead.

The next morning, Roger woke up in the large bed at Homelander's home. With a clear mind after a full night's sleep, the first thing he did was rush to the bathroom to look in the mirror.

"It's not a dream."

Staring at the distinctly different handsome face in the mirror, Roger sighed deeply. He should have been thrilled about his first crossover and similar powers to Superman, but thinking about his friends before crossing over, the unfinished anime and movies, and his beautiful British Shorthair cat, he felt no enthusiasm.

Dingling— 

While Roger was staring at himself in the mirror, his phone on the nightstand rang. 

Checking the phone, he saw it was Ashley, the manager responsible for The Seven's daily activities and scheduling.

"Hello?"

"Hello? Homelander, are you awake? Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you. We're running late for today's events, and if you're not feeling well, I can help you take the day off... you..."

A woman's voice on the other end sounded somewhat obsequious, worried about disturbing Homelander's sleep. Roger could guess Ashley's expression without even seeing her—probably a humble smile.

Rubbing his forehead, Roger tried to clear his mind and replied to Ashley:

"Sorry, I slept in. Just tell me the location, and I'll be there right away."

The call ended quickly. Roger put on Homelander's star-spangled cape and left the apartment. 

Meanwhile, Ashley, still holding the phone, appeared stunned, unable to snap out of it. Queen Maeve, a female superhero with somewhat revealing attire, noticed Ashley's expression and asked:

"What's wrong? Isn't he coming?"

"No..."

Ashley, looking dazed, replied to Queen Maeve: "He... just apologized to me."

Queen Maeve: "???"
