BXBX NOVEL Chapter 357 - 360
[POV Nemuri]
A lot of things are going on around the world and to be honest, I don\'t like it.. it should be me who should be causing all this chaos around the world but it isn\'t me... and I hate the fact... hmm... maybe be I should add my own twist to this... yes, that will work like a charm.
Now... what should I do??? I don\'t know how long I have been dwelling in my thoughts but nothing popped into my mind... I have been playing with my new powers... well, technically the powers weren\'t new... it was simply my latent powers... Having Reo\'s D would have helped me to think clearly... now, I have to do with the next best thing.
I conjured a glass and Accioed Fire Whiskey from my drink cabinet... I poured myself a generous drink and kept the bottle on the table... I chugged down the whole glass in one go and after a few seconds... I burped, a huge ball of fire escaped my mouth but I wasn\'t bothered by it...
I poured myself another glass and I got up from my throne with the glass in my hand... I walked towards the glass wall so that I could look down on the city... I took a small sip from my glass and nodded in satisfaction... after killing off the Hand leaders, my business increased drastically...
Alexandra Reid owned a lot of Financial Businesses... I was taking care of those businesses now... Murakami owned a chain of nightclubs and brothels... all of them are now owned by Yours Truly... as a woman should I feel bad for the women in brothels? Yes, but should I stop them? No, after all, it is business.
I took another sip of my drink... I wonder what Luna was doing now... she has been quite busy since I have brought her the news channels... all of them are to be transformed into Quibbler news channels... controlling the media is also important nowadays...
A lot of money has been flowing in from the weapons company I own... only a few months ago, I engulfed the whole Hammer Industries and Justin Hammer could only see from the sidelines while I absorbed his company with a bitter look on his face.
I wanted the Stark Industries too but Obadiah Stane has been causing me a lot of problems... he has been quite a thorn in my side... but I will take care of him pretty soon... after all, I have found out about his pesky deals with the Ten Rings terrorist organisation. I took another sip from my glass and twirled the drink for a couple of seconds...
Stark has been also doing a lot of stuff behind the scenes... like the deal he made with SHIELD two days ago... I didn\'t like the fact that he went behind me to make the deal when I am a board member of Stark Industries... I brought out of my thoughts when I heard someone knock on my door.
"Enter..." I trailed off and the door opened with a click and my secretary walked in with loud taps of her heels... I always wanted to have a secretary... pity it isn\'t Reo, though I don\'t mind much, after all, roleplay sex exists there for a reason and sometimes Reo agrees to play the role of my Secretary.
"What\'s up, Susan?" I asked Susan, yes, Susan Storm is my secretary... well, she isn\'t my secretary to be exact... she simply lost a bet with me so she has to act like my Secretary for a week.
She had made a bet with me saying that magic and technology shouldn\'t mix together... but I had easily proved her wrong... according to her science was based on proven facts while magic is a mysterious art... which defies the laws of science, so... two opposite things shouldn\'t match in harmony...
The bet was rigged from the start but I had never said that the bet was fair... "You shouldn\'t be drinking at this time of the day... and you have a scheduled meeting in Oscorp at 11.30 am" Susan said and gave me an annoyed look. I waved my hand and checked the time... it was 10.48 am now... I should be going.
"Thanks for the reminder... you are a nice secretary... I can give you a permanent position of yo..." before I could finish Susan cut me off.
"In your dreams..." Susan spat and I clicked my tongue in disappointment.
"Susan, I have told you multiple times that I only dream about Reo... as a good secretary you should remember that" I said with a smug grin on my face.
"Yes... and stop drooling" Susan deadpanned and chugged down my whole drink and the glass disappeared. I picked up the bottle with magic and returned it to the drink cabinet.
"Bye... Susy... take care of the office when I am away..." I said while waving my hand at Susan and before she could say anything... I was in my personal garage. I quickly entered my car and drove out of the building... I turned on the music and raised up the volume...
I was driving while humming the songs... all of a sudden the traffic thinned up quite a bit... this isn\'t something usual... at least not this part of the city and not at this time of the day... finally a guy came into my vision...
He was standing right in the middle of the road... the man was wearing a mask on his face (quite natural with Covid and all that) and he was dressed in complete black... is he a spec ops?? He had something in his hands but I knew it was a weapon, after all, I am not stupid and I can recognise an attack like this from a mile away and this guy wasn\'t subtle...
Is that a freaking grenade launcher?? Nope... no way in hell that I am going to let someone destroy my precious car once again!! \'Alter take care of him before he can fire that thing!\' I screamed inside my mind.
\'Hehehe... you wish is my command, Queen...\' Alter let out a sinister laugh and I felt her leave my body...
[POV Alter]
Ah... the Queen has finally given me a mission and it has been quite some time since I have killed anyone... as soon as I was out of my Queen\'s shadow, I rushed towards the attacker. Slowly I started to come out of the attacker\'s shadow...
He had already dropped the grenade launcher and I could see a knife heading straight towards my neck... I simply raised up my arm and parried his knife attack... though I agree that his reflexes are quite good... I am pretty sure that he isn\'t a normal human...
One of his hands was made up of metal... with that hand, he punched towards me and I simply grabbed his fist... he is strong and fast... but he isn\'t strong enough. I backed up my feet and kicked between his legs with my full might... the man simply lurched forward and his hands instinctively went towards his crotch.
Hehe... no matter how strong a man is... there is always a dangling weak point... hehe... I grabbed the man\'s head and smashed my knee on his face... I grabbed his face and pulled it up... "Legilimens" I am dived into his mind.
Ah... the man\'s name is James Buchanan Barnes, our hero, Captain America\'s best friend... but unfortunately, he was caught by Hydra and then he brainwashed this poor sod... I threw him to the side of the road, after all, Queen\'s car was about to pass through here... I slowly approached the Winter Soldier, he was in no condition to fight someone like me...
I gently turned him around and I licked my lips in anticipation... I placed my foot on his spine and grabbed both of his hands... his metal hand was trying to fight on its own but it was pretty weak... slowly I started to pull and the ancient soldier under my feet started to scream... a loud snap was heard and with that, his legs stopped moving... it was something simple, I snapped his spine.
Everything is based on technique... if I had placed my foot in the wrong position or if I would have grabbed his hands in the wrong position... then I could have torn off his hands... the ancient brainwashed soldier was lying on the street while whimpering... I nodded my head in satisfaction and decided to clear the other teams that Hydra had sent after my Queen...
[POV Nemuri]
A lot of memories rushed into my mind from Alter, I quickly sorted through them... pity... I could have used that Winter Soldier but no crying over spilled milk... Alter has already made him a cripple and he wasn\'t someone valuable...
Looks like Hydra has finally started to connect the dots... Alexander Pierce wanted to get me off the board even before the war started... now what should I do with that fool...?? Alter is already going nuts with the other teams they have sent after me...
Hmm... It would be better it I didn\'t do anything at this moment... the situation is quite volatile now and the war is about to start... I will deal with Alexander Pierce at that time... after all, leaders being assassinated during the times of war isn\'t something new.
Ugh...!! I groaned in annoyance and opened the gloves drawer... I pulled out a hentai manga and started to read it while driving... ah... yes, I haven\'t tried that position with Reo... but can I be that flexible?? Hehe... only one way to find out...
