Chapter 114
"You want me to come with you to the Baffin Mountains?" Warren asked, concern evident in his voice as they sat in his living room. Aidan had just proposed joining him on a weapons testing expedition to the mountains, where they'd have far more space to experiment."Absolutely," Aidan assured him quic...

### Chapter 103: Showtime
The twins exchanged loaded glances, disbelief written across their faces. Sure, early admissions happened—but starting halfway through the academic year? That was unheard of.Russell could practically see the gears turning in their heads. Either he was some bigwig's spoiled brat who'd waltzed in through the ba...
### Chapter 102: My Blade Isn't So Bad
The air shimmered, and Retsu Unohana materialized before Russell in all her deceptive glory. Her long braid draped elegantly over her chest, while the white captain's haori billowed around her form, concealing more than it revealed. Everything about her radiated maternal warmth and gentle wisdom."Please give me...

The office building gleamed in the afternoon sun, all glass and steel—a monument to modern commerce. Russell double-checked the address on his phone, eyebrows rising. This was where Mr. Warren operated?"So much for the independent wholesaler theory," he muttered. No small-time trader could afford prime real e...
### Chapter 100: The Senior Sister
The winter wind bit at Russell's face as Pidgeot soared through the cloudless January sky. Despite the cold, he barely felt it—Arrogance's subtle protection wrapped around him like an invisible cloak, keeping the worst of the chill at bay. Below, the city gradually gave way to rolling hills dotted with estate...
Chapter 112 - The Weight of Knowledge
"I promise I'll be careful," Aidan said, noting the worry creasing Warren's brow. "And if anything breaks during the enchantment process, I'll replace it immediately."Warren's expression softened. He pushed the weapons across the table with calloused hands. "No need for that. Do what...
Chapter 111 - The Hunter's Daughter

### Chapter 98: Tying Up Loose Ends
In the aftermath of the gruesome cleanup within the abandoned building, Russell had initially considered summoning Yoriichi to handle the disposal, envisioning the swordsman's golden-red flames engulfing the remains and reducing everything to fine ash in a brilliant display of purifying fire. However, he quickly re...
CHAPTER 110
Under the intense stares of Asgard's elite—Odin's one-eyed gaze burning hottest—Aidan gripped the silver pillar, its base humming faintly in his palm like a coiled serpent ready to strike. He lifted it high, muscles tensing against the weight, then released. The device hovered, defying gravity with a soft w...
CHAPTER 109
A week blurred by in the lab's sterile glow, Aidan pushing through endless trials with the gear until it all clicked—every humming console, every arcane rune responding to his touch like extensions of his will. Sweat beaded on his brow as he finally dove in, hands flying over components, assembling the core of th...
CHAPTER 108
Odin and Aidan strode out of the treasury, the heavy doors sealing behind them with a resonant thud that echoed through the halls. The Allfather's single eye bored into Aidan like a laser. "You've got the artifacts, boy. Deliver results—quick. I'll send an expert to work alongside you." His voice ...
Chapter 107 : Enchanted Edges and Hidden Treasures
Magic doesn't pop out of nowhere—it needs raw energy to fuel it.Kamar-Taj mages borrow theirs from big shots like Vishanti or other dimensional lords. You chant specific spells and strike poses to tap in, like dialing up a cosmic hotline.Asgardian magic works the same core way, but they pull from Asgard itself—...
### Chapter 97: A Protagonist's Prerogative
As Kiss-Shot Heart-Under-Blade gracefully merged back into the shadows at Russell's feet, the thugs who had fallen under her hypnotic demonic charm began to regain their senses one after another. They reached up to touch their necks in confusion and lingering fear, their eyes wide with shock as the reality of what ...
Chapter 96: Establishing Authority
Russell couldn't deny the allure of testing out his symbiote-enhanced Pidgeot, its black-and-red armored form promising speed and intimidation in equal measure. But practicality won out—riding that monstrous bird through the city would draw eyes like a beacon, screaming "villain arc" from a mile away. He&...
Chapter 95: One Card, Two Uses
Russell's pulse thrummed with a cocktail of thrill and jitters as he uttered, "Arrogance." In an instant, a writhing pool of black-and-red liquid materialized before him, shimmering like some cursed brew straight out of a dark shonen arc. It surged forward with eerie purpose, slithering across his skin, see...
### Chapter 94: Dying Symbiote: Arrogance
Russell leaned back in his chair, staring at the blank card in his hand. "Alright, time to gear up. Can't keep running around like a newbie in a boss fight—naked and praying for plot armor."Pidgeot was a solid ride, sure, but it wasn't exactly cutting-edge anymore. And his own defenses? Zilch. He'...
Chapter 106: Moonlit Secrets and Magic Dawn
After finally breaking free from the swarm of chattering ladies, Aidan barely caught his breath before Volstagg's massive arm hooked around his neck like a vice. The bearded giant hauled him toward a rowdy table of burly Asgardians, all roaring laughs and clinking mugs. "Come meet the lads!" Volstagg boomed...
Chapter 105 : Asgardian Sparks
The banquet wasn't firing up until nightfall, so Thor and the crew dragged Aidan on a whirlwind tour of Asgard. They hit the streets, weaving through vibes straight out of ancient Nordic legends—not from the towering buildings, but the locals shouting greetings to Thor. Folks rocked leather tunics, knee-length ca...
Chapter 104 : Gifts from Midgard
Asgard the epic home base of the Aesir gods, ruled by Odin himself. Myths say it's cut off from Earth's Midgard, but some old researchers figured it was basically a massive floating castle. Reality? It's a weird, flat planetoid chilling at the center of the Nine Realms—no spinning, no orbiting stars, jus...

Logan scratched his head, a rough grin cracking his weathered face. "Hell if I know," he muttered. Time had blurred into a endless haze for him—no birthdays, no milestones, just survival.Aidan tapped his fingers on the table, eyes lighting up like he'd cracked a code. "If we're talking the War of ...
Chapter 93:
Russell eyed the quiet suburb on Northgate's fringe, the house's isolated charm sealing the deal. Beyond the peace it promised—far from the city's relentless hum—its seclusion suited his shadowy ties to the Spirit Begging Society. Tasks from them meant slipping out unseen; downtown crowds would spotligh...
Chapter 92: A Great Harvest
Russell's fingers brushed against the two items Blake extended, the weight of them grounding him amid the auditorium's fading echoes. The notebook was thick, its leather cover worn smooth from years of handling, bold characters etched across the front: "Experiences in Making Underworld Cards." Beside it...
Chapter 91: The Choice
"Damn it—someone's pulling a fast one!"The thought exploded in Mr. Stern's mind like a thunderclap, his carefully laid plans crumbling before his eyes. As Northgate University's rep, he'd played his ace: announcing that Director Blake Whitmore himself would take Russell under his wing, sweeten...
Chapter 90: The Spoils of Victory
The winter air bit sharp as December drew to a close, but inside the grand arena of Riverview Province's capital, the heat was suffocating. Twenty thousand spectators packed the stands, their voices creating a wall of sound that seemed to shake the very foundations of the building. The first-ever Riverview Province...
Chapter 102 - Movie Magic and Real Talk
Making a movie needs actors, cameras, locations, and tons of special effects.

All those artistic touches—camera angles, color grading, composition—stuff that even the s...
Chapter 101 - Awakening Giants
After his chill vacation with Aunt May, Aidan was finally ready to dig through all the cool stuff he'd been hoarding in his storage device.

Chapter 100 : New Horizons
"This can't be helped," Aidan said with a finality that surprised even himself. "Since this path isn't easy to solve, I'll simply step away. Isn't this what you wanted to see?"The Ancient One smiled, relief evident in her expression. "It seems you've done considerable thinking th...
