Chapter 83: The Sentry Serum
[[Nathaniel Essex]]
In this world, the ones that are strong are the ones that are praised. Without power, no matter how smart, how good looking or how wealthy you are— you will never be appreciated.
Centuries ago, when I went to the coun...
Chapter 82: An Insight
[London, England (1952)]
[[Marcellus Hanley].
The city was in mourning as their king had passed away. The royal family was in chaos but they did a great job masking it and not letting the public see their weakness.
Elizabeth II ...
Chapter 81: Deceit and Disguise
Romulus saw red.
Red and a beast— tearing through his flesh and shattering his bones.
Romulus laughed despite his body crying in pain. He was enjoying every little bit of it!
He has intended to kill James and use his...
Chapter 80: The Fight For Bub
[[Marcellus Hanley]]
Sometimes you just need to kick back and relax. Let go of all your worries, put on your headphones, turn on some orchestral and close your eyes.
Trust me… This is the most I have been relaxed in a very long time.
Chapter 79: The Hand (2/2)
Daito, the possessor of one of the Sakkis— the sword of human's brutality… wasn't exactly a Hand member. Or at least not a legit Hand member, he has always been a member of the Snakeroot… which translates to 'Those Who Walk the Left-Hand Path.'
H...
Chapter 78: The Hand (1/2)
"It's funny isn't it Marcel?" Joel exhaled. "We used to spend every waking hour playing and running around. We used to spend at least ten hours a day with each other and yet… we only get to see each other on weekends now."
"Back then… We were k...
Chapter 77: Making Moves
Selene asked not to make the room dirty but it looks like she will have to work with this.
Absalom was a tough nut to crack. He didn't want to reveal anything about the plans of Saul or Gideon… neither did he want to reveal their locations.
Chapter 76: Acquired Absalom
[[Amara Aquilla]]
Who is this man?
I was huffing endlessly while the man sat on a rock— grinning at me.
We climbed the highest hill of Nova Roma in under an hour and half. And despite all that time of strenuou...
Chapter 75: Princess' Escape
[[Amara Aquilla]]
This place is amazing.
It has everything one could ask for— from great food to the most expensive clothing.
I remember roaming through the streets and enjoying the food and games… but that was when fa...
Chapter 74: External of Despair, Absalom
[[Selene Gallio]]
"So, I cannot leave this room until the guest leaves?"
Amara, my last direct descendant asked with sadness in her eyes. She was far too naive for her age and I couldn't let Absalom find her. The Externals mig...
Chapter 73: The Enhanced Bub Part II
Sitting on a chair, I kept an eye on the unconscious man that laid over a puddle of sweat and blood.
James writhed like a worm in pain after being injected with the serum. And surprisingly, it took him longer to get used to the serum than th...
Chapter 72: The Enhanced Bub
"James. You are early." I smiled at the man that was fidgeting in his seat.
James was not used to staying still but not everyone is going to move according to his wishes— he needs to learn patience.
"You called me at nin...
Chapter 71: A Good News
Barely saving myself from choking to death, I looked at a giggling Peggy.
"What?" I asked.
Marriage was something that I haven't planned yet but I knew that it was inevitable in the future.
I won't die of old age but if t...
Chapter 70: Meeting
[[Bouncing Betty]]
We have grown significantly in the past couple of months— the new people within the campus were proof of that.
The Order now has branches over multiple countries and weirdly enough, Marcellus… or Jester as he calls himselfâ€...
Chapter 69: When Everything Comes Together
[[Weeks Later]]
Larry was done for. The Stallion Corporation had hit rock bottom after many other allegations came to light.
Disposal of biochemical waste, forced labour, underpayment, physical and mental abuse of wo...
Chapter 68: Revelations
My statement made Larry glare at me. I am pretty sure that he doesn't know about the information that I possess and he is most certainly glaring at me because of my interference when he could have gotten away with relative ease.
"If it is related t...
Chapter 67: The WSO Meeting
"Marcel, we will be arriving in ten minutes." Howard said through the phone as I was waiting for him. Peggy was discussing something with the officials as the WSO meeting was about to begin.
The cold war had started three years ago so the tensi...
Chapter 66: A Visit to Nova Roma
[[Selene Gallio]]
"He is here, Your Majesty." About time.
"You may leave." I said which made her nod before leaving gracefully. Everyone within this castle has been trained from their birth so every one of their moves is well ex...
Chapter 65: Deal with Sinister
"So… something going on between you two?" Howard asked as his eyes revolved around me and Peggy.
"Maybe?" Peggy didn't give a direct answer and I just shrugged my shoulders. Howard stared at us for a solid minute but ended up sighing.
<...
Chapter 64: Worries
"Sector four and sector six is cleared." Marc's voice came from the comm.
"Good. So that leave's Betty's sector." I replied.
They have done quite well in taking care of the HYDRA soldiers. This should be enough to draw their attention. ...
Chapter 63: Finally Antimetal ______
"That should do it." I pulled the alligator skinned bag over my shoulder.
"So, you are leaving?" The Lord personally came to say goodbye.
"Yes, my lord. I have to get back to my mother." He nodded at the mention of my ...
Chapter 62: The Feast
The Marvel universe is known for being chaotic. The infinite alternate timeline has always been a pain to deal with and now I have been thinking about the 'what if' versions of the timelines.
There have been countless mentions in the comics and many ...
Chapter 61: Trade Request
"I accept!" Zala looked at me with disapproving eyes while Zoro was smirking.
"Are you sure about that?" The Lord asked. "Our battles are no games. We only host death-matches."
I nodded. "How many matches do I have to participate...
Chapter 60: Match or Death
[[Marcellus]]
"Because he is the Lord."
That hit me like a bombshell. I did expect her to be related to someone of higher status within the tribe… cue to her jewelry. But I never expected her to be the daughter of the Lord.
Chapter 59: A Pterodactyl
Holy smokes! I expected to see some prehistoric creatures but definitely not a pterodactyl. No, it is not a normal pterodactyl, it's some sort of a mutated one.
Pterodactyl does not have purple teeth. And I am not risking a bite either.
...
Chapter 58: The Savage Lands
[Antarctica]
[Unknown Altitude]
Jumping with a parachute is extremely risky. It's a surprise that the chopper hasn't been impaled by spears and arrows yet.
The savage lands are quite unkind when it comes to tourism. And if...
Chapter 57: The World isn't Black and White
[[Margaret Peggy Carter]]
I am stupid. I should have known that it would have ended up like this. I am bad at handling drinks and so… here I am. Naked and alone.
I didn't find Marcel anywhere after waking up… but ...
Chapter 56: A Chat that went too Far
When I planned to drop her. I had absolutely no plans to laze around her apartment and drink while hearing her sob story.
And I definitely don't like the current part of the story.
"I don't know… I don't know. He was always about...
Chapter 55: The Party and the Reveal
Parties for me is like the stage for actors. You act there, never reveal your true self but show what others want to see and hear. No one cares about your likes or dislikes, they just want to be entertained.
But it doesn't matter much ...
Chapter 54: Talking to Joel
[[Southside park]]
"Man… This is the best place to relax. The air is so fresh and the view is awesome." This statement made Joel roll his eyes.
"Well, we did drive for nearly three thousand miles. So if this place was not beautiful, I wo...
