The Boys: I Became The Soldier Boy

Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Transmigrated as Soldier Boy

Chapter 1: Transmigrated as Soldier Boy

Cold... bone-chilling cold...

Kevin struggled to regain a trace of consciousness in the pitch darkness.

He felt his limbs as heavy as lead.

There even seemed to be some kind of metal mask over his mouth, restricting his breathing.

As he instinctively struggled, he forced open his heavy eyelids with great effort...

The next moment, Kevin froze.

What met his eyes were eerie green indicator lights, thick bulletproof glass, and a dense network of metal tubes and wires wrapped around his body.

This place looked like a cryogenic sleep pod.

Before Kevin could figure out the situation, a flood of foreign and terrifying memories rushed in.

A battlefield raining bullets...

The aura of a superstar frantically idolized by the world...

Deep in the jungle, the betrayed and twisted faces of his former team, Payback...

And the endless torture under shadowless lamps—being shot, injected with unknown toxins... and repeatedly bombarded with radiation weapons!

A few full minutes passed.

Only then did Kevin’s rapid breathing gradually stabilize.

A flash of shock crossed his open eyes.

He seemed to have transmigrated.

And he had arrived in the bloody, violent world of The Boys!

Not only that, but the owner of this body was no nobody.

He was the true original face of Vought International, the veteran superhero with near-invincible defense and terrifying destructive power—Soldier Boy, Benjamin!

"Fuck... talk about a hellish start."

Kevin inwardly drew a sharp breath.

He strained to roll his eyes, taking in the dim laboratory outside the pod, which bore a heavy Soviet industrial style...

So, what exactly was the timeline right now?

If Kevin remembered correctly, in the original show’s fucked-up plot, Soldier Boy had it rough.

The legendary original American hero was repeatedly frozen a total of three times!

The first time was during the operation in Nicaragua, where he was backstabbed by every member of Payback, the team he used to lead.

Led by Black Noir, even his old flame, Crimson Countess, was involved.

In the end, he was sold to the Soviets as a political bargaining chip, used as a lab rat in this godforsaken place, and tortured in a daze for nearly forty years!

And the mastermind behind all of this was definitely Stan Edgar, the perpetually suited, hypocritical, cold-blooded ruler of Vought International.

The second time, after finally seeing the light of day again, he had originally agreed to help the Boys deal with Homelander.

Only to get completely derailed at the critical moment because he went to beat his goddamn grandson.

Then he was left utterly bewildered by that cuckold Butcher’s line, "He’s my wife’s son," which triggered infighting and led to him suffering heavy blows from multiple sides.

Once again treated as a dangerous, uncontrollable weapon, he was backstabbed by the Boys and shut right back into a cryogenic sleep pod.

As for the third time, which was the recently updated Season 5, Episode 7—leaving only the final episode before the grand finale.

After handing over the V1 formula to Homelander, Benjamin had intended to completely cut ties with his past and leave for South America to enjoy himself.

But because he said "Good luck, son" to Homelander...

It caused that man-child, starved for affection, to instantly break down...

His emotions completely exploding, Homelander retaliated like a mad dog, locking his neck in a death grip until he choked out, ushering in his third freezing...

Reviewing the tragic history of his new body, Kevin inwardly rolled his eyes.

Soldier Boy? More like Popsicle Boy, huh?

Frozen three times, backstabbed three times!

What kind of original hero is this? This is a textbook definition of a pathetic, easily manipulated sucker!

That cuckold was right.

Soldier Boy is just a giant cunt. No matter where he goes, he gets backstabbed and betrayed.

But...

"Now that my consciousness has completely taken over this body, and I’m awake..."

Feeling the terrifying power stirring deep within him like a nuclear reactor.

Beneath the metal mask, Kevin’s lips curled into a defiant smirk.

If the cryogenic pod couldn’t keep him contained, did that mean these freezing devices wouldn’t be able to restrict him anymore?

Before transmigrating, Kevin had never been one to waste energy on internal conflict.

In his past life, he had no parents and no partner. Having arrived in this chaotic world full of Supes, he might as well make the best of it.

So what if he had to abandon his past identity as Kevin?

From this day on, he was Benjamin!

He would enjoy this perfect physical form at the peak of humanity, enjoy the absolute power brought by top-tier superpowers, and enjoy the endless pleasure of eternal youth!

Since he was already here and there was no going back, he might as well live it up to the fullest in this world!

As Benjamin fully accepted his new identity, a status panel suddenly lit up right in front of his field of vision.

A notification chime rang in his ears.

[Ding!]

[Host consciousness integration complete. The Child Education System is officially activated!] ƒrēewebnovel.com

[Current Identity: Soldier Boy (Benjamin)]

[Current Abilities:

Self-Healing Lv5 (Extremely high cellular activity, capable of rapidly repairing fatal wounds.)

Radiation Resistance Lv5 (Completely immune to nuclear radiation and all harmful rays.)

Benjamin raised an eyebrow and continued scanning down.

[System Introduction: This system is bound to the host. Your mission is to educate your rebellious offspring: Homelander (John)!]

[Mission Description: As the biological father of Homelander, it is your responsibility to guide this wayward offspring back onto the right path. Whenever you successfully alter Homelander’s pathological mindset, correct his heinous behavior, reshape his warped worldview, and compel him to make righteous choices... or simply make him deeply feel the heavy love of a strict father, rewards will be triggered!]

[Rewards include but are not limited to: All-around limitless enhancement of base physical attributes, gaining flight, gaining Heat Vision, increased mastery over Nuclear Energy Blast, elevated self-healing capabilities, and various other abilities...]

Staring at the words on the light screen, the usually composed Benjamin fell into a rare, prolonged silence.

"A system... telling me to educate Homelander?"

In the world of The Boys, most people’s evaluations of Homelander were surprisingly unanimous: an extremely narcissistic man-child, a bloodthirsty, sadistic dictator.

Countless people lived in terror of him.

The Boys even dreamed of tearing him limb from limb.

But... truth be told.

Benjamin didn’t actually hate Homelander.

Author’s Note: Welcome to everyone who wanted to read a fic where the main character transmigrates as Soldier Boy!!

Honestly, I think Soldier Boy is one of the best and coolest characters in the series.

His only real weakness was the writers. They kept freezing him and shoving him into a capsule just so the plot could move forward. Otherwise, the character has massive potential. Of course, the comic-book version of Soldier Boy is far worse, so this version is definitely better in every way.

Let me know what you think of this concept, and feel free to share your ideas.

If you enjoy the story, you can support me by leaving Power Stones, comments, or a review!!
