Unknownfate

Chapter 113

“So, I admit I didn’t expect Pepper to call me about some guests today, less so for my guest to be the queen herself.” Stark greeted as soon as he arrived, the nervous Pepper Potts stood by his side, not sure what to think at all.

“Well, I was in the neighbourhood, and figure...

Chapter 112

Arriving at Stark’s home should have been easy enough; I knew where it was — heck, I knew the special coordinates to open a spacetime gate into his home.

Now, I might not be headed to his home in Malibu, but instead to the Stark Tower he was building — or had built — just sti...

Chapter 111

Inside, the house was simple but sturdy, clearly built with care and attention to the brutal conditions of the Outback. Thick stone walls kept the heat at bay, and wide windows let the golden light in without allowing it to burn.

The living space was sparsely decorated: a few shelves...

Chapter 110

This really wasn’t how I expected to be greeted once I arrived in Australia.

I mean, here I come, the queen, or rather the king of Albion, surely I should be greeted with honors upon arriving in a former member of the Commonwealth.

Or at least be greeted as I had in Idia, as ...

Chapter 109

I decided to take a normal plane to India rather than teleporting us. And while it was a private plane, it was still a long trip. But it did allow me to get to know the two Eternals better.

And it gave Sprite the time she needed to fully convey her desire for my reward to Sersi. Havi...

Chapter 108

“I still can’t believe you are some kind of what-if version of Arthur, like, what if Arthur was a smoking hot babe. I mean, damn, that one thing can change that much?” Sprite said as I told them a bit more about the situation.

And I hardly blamed her, given she had been around ...

Chapter 107

Sersi and Sprite could hardly believe their eyes when they entered the city of Camelot; it was truly an unbelievable sight. And they had seen a lot.

Yet no place on Earth could compare with this place.

It was a strange fusion of theme park charm and real city life. Home to hund...

Chapter 106

Mordred once called me a paper king.

She said it with a grin, of course—mischievous, proud, mocking. Tossed the words over her shoulder like it was some grand joke.

I had smiled at the time, too. But now, with the sun low in the sky and a stack of unsigned decrees ta...

Chapter 105

“What do you mean it’s impossible!?” I couldn’t help but raise my voice as I was once more given bad news.

Before the throne, the royal adviser of technology cowered. “Please, forgive me your majesty, but… it can’t be done, that element, it can’t be made, it is simply...

Chapter 104

The alarms went off at 6:07 AM.

Red lights flared in the security hallways. Upstairs, students scrambled out of their dorms in confusion. Logan was already halfway to the hangar bay with claws extended, while Cyclops and Storm coordinated a lockdown from the main control room.

...

Chapter 103

Madame Gao had to admit that these people were causing her some real trouble. The warehouse raid was one thing; she lost a lot of manpower that day, not to mention a lot of product was lost.

Still, it wasn’t too bad, at most a minor setback.

Even the raid on her shipment whil...

Chapter 102

“No, no, no, no.” Matt quickly stopped them before they got out, and like herding cats, forced them back onto the couch.

“We can’t just storm in. We don’t know anything about the building. Though I’m sure JARVIS included full satellite schematics, ownership history, power...

Chapter 101

The elevator hummed down.

When it stopped, the door creaked open onto a dimly lit underground chamber. Heavy machinery thudded and groaned below, and the air smelled of oil, rust… and death.

“Holy hell,” Jessica whispered.

The basement stretched wide—half-medical ...

Chapter 100

The sun had dipped low outside, casting warm shadows through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The trio sat around the cluttered kitchen table, surrounded by takeout boxes, protein bar wrappers, and at least two half-drunk energy drinks.

On the table sat Stark’s tablet—now active—p...

Chapter 99

The arena was carnage.

Flipped trucks. Blown engines. Torn dirt ramps. A crowd in complete upheaval.

Mordred stood on the hood of what used to be a monster truck—now a smoking, twitching scrap pile with a flame still licking out from underneath. She raised her arms l...

Chapter 98

A few days had passed since Arthuria left.

The apartment Tony had provided was nothing short of absurd. Hidden behind an unassuming brick facade in Hell’s Kitchen, it opened into a sleek, two-story penthouse that looked like it belonged in a magazine: marble floors, glass walls, a ...

Chapter 97

I had no real reason not to inform Stark about my reasons for sniffing around in Hell’s Kitchen. However, I did keep a little bit hidden.

“So… there is a group of immortal ancient magic ninjas around in New York, who are doing unspeakable evils?” He clearly struggled to belie...

Chapter 96

The next morning, we didn’t stick around for long. Kilgrave’s body had been found, so we needed to leave before anyone connected that with us.

“Alright, Mordred, remember to behave yourself this time.” I warned him one last time as I started fiddling with the TemPad.

Mo...

Chapter 95

The room still smelled faintly of blood.

I had gotten rid of most of it with a bit of magic, but I didn’t know any real cleaning magic, and Kilgrave’s blood had really seeped into the carpet.

His body, too, had been unceremoniously disposed of, thrown out the window. It wou...

Chapter 94

Mordred’s boots scraped against the floor as she shifted her stance, arms still folded. “You really don’t get it.”

Kilgrave raised an eyebrow. “Don’t get what?”

The grin on her face was not the kind you gave to someone you respected. It was the kind wolves gave be...

Chapter 93

I couldn’t help but be slightly confused, as this man apparently made himself right at home. I mean, he was hardly welcome, having been forced to have his companion push the door open.

Yet given that he was here because he believed us to be enhanced, and that the woman seemed enhan...

Chapter 92

New York was the city that never sleeps. Even now, as the sun set, the city was a hive of life and activity. Here, in the seedy underbelly, far from the hotel Mordred and I stayed in, it was particularly active.

Matt Murduck had done as I asked and helped the poor people who had been...

Chapter 91

Matt groaned as his entire body hurt after that very short but very brutal fight. He wasn’t a stranger to getting beaten up, but after all his training, it was rare he got knocked around this badly.

He couldn’t help but think back to the chain of events that led to this painful s...

Chapter 90

(got another chapter coming later, just need to edit)

We became something of a legend that night.

Not the sort born from prophecy or thrones, but the kind whispered by terrified lowlifes on the street. “There’s a girl in red,” they’d say. “Jumps down from the roof like a ham...

Chapter 89

The United States of America, the USA. It is without a doubt a cursed land. Honestly, I don’t think there is a more cursed place on earth.

No other place seemed to have as much misfortune gathered, no place as many super villains or their plans.

After all, how many of the ali...

Chapter 88

“Scan complete,” the A.I. announced. “Foreign metal fragments: none detected. Palladium toxicity: zero. Vital signs… optimal. Congratulations, sir. You are, by all medical and mechanical measurements, healthy.”

Tony let out a sound. It wasn’t a laugh, not exactly—more o...

Chapter 87

I didn’t flinch at his sarcasm.

“I’m afraid I have little to do with the afterlife, so I can’t offer such a thing… In fact, I doubt there is much of one, at most I could offer to ensure the lords of hell don’t get your soul,” I replied with a smile.

“Wait? Lords...

Chapter 86

After making sure Stark was watching closely, I held the shard in my palm and called upon my dragon heart, the dragon core of the red dragon. And let my mana flow.

I had no real need for my magical circuits since I had so much mana to call upon, and while my magecraft skills were pre...

Chapter 85

“My name,” I said clearly, my voice cutting through the air like a drawn blade, “is Arthuria Pendragon. King of Camelot. Ruler of Albion.”

Tony Stark didn’t blink—he stared.

I continued, letting the gravity settle.

“The world knows me as King Arthur...

Chapter 84

The walls were steel and silence. Monitors flickered in a dimly lit room, casting pale glows on the faces of those seated around the black glass table.

A man in a lab coat adjusted his gloves as he stood beside a projected hologram—a grainy still of a beautiful blond woman at the b...
