Stand User in Marvel Universe Chapter 302 - Shot

245 Dark Matter

Three days have passed since Dio gave the Destroyer Armor piece to Tony, and Tony stuffed his workshop with so many equipment used for forging Dio's blade!

His workshop looked like something straight out of a sci-fi movie.

"I will start in a second, but you remember everything I need you to do, right?" Tony said to Dio while looking slightly unsure.

"Relax, I will do my best!" Dio said as he stood on the spot that Tony has specially made for him.

That was the only piece of Destroyer Armor that they had, meaning that if they failed, Tony must think of another way to forge Dio's blade!

"Energy output 80%" A machine's voice informed Tony.

Not long after, Dio saw that the Vibranium began to turn into liquid and merge with the Adamantium, this was one of the characteristics of the Vibranium.

It will lose its original property after introduced into a certain sound wave.

Tony has read the information that his father described in his journal, and that was why he knew how to forge the Vibranium properly, but he couldn't use all of his father's method, because his father forged defensive equipment while Tony himself was forging offensive equipment!

Not long after, the machine's voice once again informed that the sound wave was stable at 93%.

At the same time, the Vibranium was decomposed into a tiny little piece that was almost invisible!

"Start Compression!" Tony said as he activated the ark reactor in the corner of the room.

He wanted to use clean energy from the arc reactor to compress the Vibranium and Adamantium into a mold that he has designed.

"Inject Adamantium to the mold!" Tony said commandingly.

At the same time, the machine near the mold began to inject liquid Adamantium to the mold, and once it was filled, the decomposed Vibranium was moved to the top of the mold as the machine began to compress it together.

"Now, this is the most crucial part that I told you about! I need your power here as I will turn back the Vibranium back to its solid-state! So, tell me when you ready!" Tony said solemnly.

Dio took a deep breath and shook his head a couple of times to get into the groove, "I am ready. Let's do this!" Dio said confidently.

Tony nodded and immediately moved the mechanical arm to put the Destroyer Armor Piece to the mold with the liquid Adamantium.

"Jarvis, prepare to turn off the Sound wave stabilizer!" Tony ordered.

"Countdown, 3, 2, 1!" Tony said as a signal to Dio.

Dio immediately covered the mold with his Hamon Energy to prevent it from breaking apart!

But still, as the Sound wave stabilizer was turned off, the Adamantium and the Vibranium began to collide wildly, the mold was showing a crack as it couldn't contain all the energy generated from the fusion of the two metals!

As he observed the forging process, Dio finally realized why Tony needed his help to forge this weapon.

Tony knew that somehow Dio was able to activate the property inside the Destroyer Armor, and that property was Dark Matter!

Dio now realized that the magic inside the Destroyer Armor was none other than Dark Matter Energy!

So, Tony told Dio to hold the mold with his power to prevent it from breaking apart and to activate the property of the Destroyer Armor Piece to fuse the Adamantium and the Vibranium together!

The Destroyer Armor Piece had another property to absorb energy and channel it safely to a certain path, Tony had also created this path to contain the excess energy from the Destroyer Armor Piece! Everything was going very smoothly according to Tony's plan, but a problem soon showed its tail!

The Dark Matter container that Tony has made to contain the energy from the Destroyer Armor Piece began to beep and flashed a yellow colour, meaning that the container was reaching a full capacity!

"Jarvis, accelerate the energy flow!" Tony shouted, ordering Jarvis to circulate the energy inside the container.

"Sir, too much energy for circulation, I am afraid the circuit wouldn't be able to handle it!" Jarvis said warning Tony.

"it will only cause a large-scale outage, but if we don't do that, this place would be bombarded along with 20 km worth of area!" Tony said nervously.

"Wait, let me try something!" Dio suddenly said, interrupting Tony..

246 Success

"What? Did you have some means to circulate the energy?" Tony said as he looked at Dio nervously.

"I couldn't explain it now! Let me try first!" Dio said as he increased the Hamon Energy output that he used to contain the mold with.

In his mind, Dio knew that energy could cancel out each other so, all he had to do was increase his own Hamon Energy to the point that it would block the Dark Matter Energy that the Destroyer Armor Piece released.

Tony clicked his tongue in desperation and immediately suited up his Iron Man suit, but he knew that the suit wouldn't exactly save him from Dark Matter Explosion!

"Forced Ripple Breathing!" Dio shouted as he used the Hamon technique to perceive his surroundings.

He had to use this technique in order to see the Dark Matter Energy from the mold and thus able to react in time to block it!

But Dio could only do so much, the Dark Matter Energy proved to be a challenge even for him, his Hamon Energy was being sucked, he didn't know how long he would be able to keep this up!

Tony at the moment was able to breathe in relief, the data showed that the Dark Matter Energy had been reduced significantly, but after looking at Dio and noticed him sweating all over his face, Tony knew that Dio wouldn't be able to keep whatever he was doing for a long time!

So, he immediately made his move!

"Jarvis! Turn on the energy pipeline transference, increase the overload rate, and put the excess energy to the entire villa!" Tony ordered Jarvis confidently.

"Right away, Sir!" Jarvis said, and as soon as he said so, the light bulb on the entire house exploded, and a burnt smell filled the entire villa, but it wasn't from fire but from the fried circuit inside every electrical appliance inside the villa!

Tony and Dio kept struggling to make this one chance they had success!

Not long after that, the mold began to turn green, meaning that the fusion inside was a success, but Tony knew that it wasn't over just yet, he still had to diffuse the Dark Matter Energy trapped by Dio's power!

The mold began to crack, followed by the safety glass shattered all over the place!

Dio immediately threw [Anubis] towards the cracking mold, he hoped that the weapon inside was good enough to be the host of [Anubis, he has done all he could, and now he surrendered it all to fate!

But, as soon as the Stand card hit the cracking mold, the dark matter energy exploded!

Dio was surprised, but he was quick enough to summon the [The World, he immediately used the [The World] special skill to stop the time, but as he only had 100.000 Hamon Energy left, he had to be quick!

He grabbed Tony and immediately sprinted as fast as he could and as far as he could in a matter of a second!

The time resumed, and because of the Dark Matter Energy contained in the mold wasn't as much as in the container, the explosion only blasted 10 meters from the mold, but it also meant that Tony's villa was partly destroyed!

Not only that, but all electrical appliances in Tony's villa were also destroyed!

"What happen just now?" Tony asked as he recovered from the shock.

He was confused as he didn't feel any explosion trauma on his body and the fact that he somehow got away from the explosion radius.

But as he looked at Dio on his side, he knew that Dio had something to do with it.

Dio was panting, completely exhausted from having almost all his Hamon Energy depleted!

"Did we fail? Or did we succeed?" Tony asked curiously.

Dio could only shake his head as he didn't know himself, he had not thought of saving the weapon when the explosion happened.

But he knew even if he tried, he wouldn't be able to save it with his time stop ability, the weapon was inside the mold, and the mold was completely covered by Dark Matter Energy!

"I'll check it out now!" Tony said unsurely.

He immediately walked back into the place that was once his workshop and started looking for any form of weapon lying around the explosion site.

A few minutes later, Dio who has recovered some of his Hamon Energy back, could finally walk again.

As soon as he stood up, he heard Tony was calling for him!

"It's here! We succeed, it's all intact!" Tony shouted excitedly.

Tony flew toward Dio with a dark red long knife-like object on his hand.

The blade was about a meter long, but Dio noticed that it was slightly crooked and the body of the blade was decorated by an Egyptian--like tribal tattoo and it was also covered by a scale that looked like the Destroyer Armor!

Tony immediately handed it over to Dio, and as he inspected the blade closely, Dio couldn't help but notice that Tony was frowning slightly.

"Hey, does it have the same weight as what you intend it to be?" Dio asked Tony curiously.

"No, it doesn't, it looks completely far from what I design it to be, but hey, we still succeed in making the one and only weapon of its kind! But I could say that you are still lucky that the weapon is still usable at the least, it didn't have any defect except for the extremely short handle!" Tony said as he tried to act casual.

"To be honest, I don't think that we could succeed in the first place, so I would say that we are extremely lucky this time!" Tony said solemnly..

247 A Weapon of Myth!

Dio nodded as he thought the same thing as Tony did, but Dio guessed that the weapon's shape was related to [Anubis] that he threw at the last moment.

After all, he could see some Egyptian influence on the weapon shape.

But Dio began to wonder what would happen if he injected some of his Hamon energy into the blade.

And thus, he immediately did, he assumed that the only thing that would happen was activating [Anubis, but he was soon proven to be wrong!

The first thing that happened was he established a connection with [Anubis, proving that the blade was successfully inhibited by [Anubis] and the second thing that happened as he injected more Hamon Energy inside the blade was it began to shake!

The blade on Dio's hand was beginning to change the form, the sharp part of the blade began to bend more than it already did before, and the short handle that was also covered with scales began to elongate, and the scales also covered half of the blade part, making it looked like an intricate work of art!

As soon as it finished transforming, Dio was shocked to see its final shape!

It was a scythe, a deep dark red scythe!

Dio raised the scythe to the air and saw that the weapon was bigger than before, the sickle itself was almost two meters long!

Tony, who was beside Dio the entire time, was also shocked beyond belief at the weapon's transformation!

The change was outrageous!

Not only it couldn't be explained by science, but it also turned into a scary-looking weapon!

A few hours later, Tony and Dio arrived at Stark Building.

Tony's villa was completely in wreck, there was nothing else they could do over there, so they left it as soon as Tony called a team of engineers to repair his villa.

Both couldn't wait to test out the weapon, and that was why they came to the Stark Building as it was also equipped with a bunch of research equipment capable of testing out the weapon.

But Pepper, who was on the building, immediately screamed at Tony as soon as she heard the report that Tony has successfully blown up their house, and she also made Tony promise that he wouldn't destroy the Stark Building too.

Although, in the end, she still couldn't believe Tony 100%, she let him do what he wanted and evacuated everyone near the lab that Tony will use.

"Besides being homeless once again, I think we are good!" Tony said to Dio as he equipped his Iron Man's armor once again.

Dio nodded his head helplessly because he knew that there was no way he could ask for the money that Tony owed anymore.

Tony's villa was worth around 30 million dollars, and that was not including any electrical appliance that he had in that villa!

Dio assumed that the total cost of the weapon in his hands right now was around 100 million dollars, which was too much!

"Let's test the blade's sharpness first! I am curious about how sharp it is. I will set up some alloy of different strengths, see if you can cut them down and report back on how much force you need to cut them down, okay?" Tony said excitedly.

Dio nodded his head as he understood what Tony asked him to do.

Dio then immediately stood in front of a neatly placed alloy plates with different thickness.

Because he wasn't that confident of the weapon yet, he used a little bit of force as he swung the scythe toward the alloy plates.

The next scene completely shocked Tony and Dio completely, all of the alloy plates that Tony had prepared was cut in half, but not only that, the weapon was completely soundproof, there was no sound at all as the weapon cut through the air and cut through the alloy plates!

The weapon even showed no resistance at all as it cut through the alloy plates like a hot knife through butter!

Dio swung the scythe vigorously through the air several times to hear if there was any sound, but there was no sound whatsoever!

Tony's eyes widened in disbelief, this weapon was really of high quality!

"It seems that there is only one test left that we can do for this weapon!" Tony said with a sour tone on his voice.

Dio would brag about this weapon later, he was sure of it!After Tony was done testing anything that he could think of from the scythe, he looked at Dio silently in complete disbelief.

The weapon has surpassed every test that Tony had done, surpassing even his highest expectation!

The weapon even had the power to absorb and store any form of energy and use it for its own benefit!

Tony even used the Sound Wave Stabilizer to see if he could weaken or break the weapon, but it was a complete failure!

The weapon flaw from the Vibranium material was completely erased!

This was a weapon of myth!

248 Loki Is Here!

After holding his weapon, Dio tried to communicate with the [Anubis] inside the blade, but he didn't receive any response from it.

So, Dio stopped pestering it any further for the moment, he thought that he would find a way to activate [Anubis] later.

Dio also named the Scythe [Grim Reaper] because [Anubis] was the god of death of Egyptian Myths, and it was only right to name it [Grim Reaper, his western counterpart.

The name itself also implied that whoever became Dio's enemies will see the death god sooner than their time would be!

Dio also thought of naming the scythe [Goddess of Death] before, but as he remembered that Marvel had the real goddess of death, he refrained from using it, for it may cause trouble in the future!

Time flew, and suddenly, it was already August!

While Dio's restaurant was stable once again, the new threat was coming close sooner than Dio had expected himself!

Loki had shown himself on earth!Sirens could be heard from SHIELD's West Division's secret base, the people ran outside in chaos as many helicopters and heavy-armed vehicles were trying to evacuate every personnel inside the base.

But Nick Fury rushed in, clearly having his own objective that he desperately had to save.

SHIELD's West Division secret base was originally NASA Space Radiation Centre, and later SHIELD turned it into their own Accelerator Test Centre.

It once carried out the SHIELD's Pegasus project, which ended after the death of Dr. Lawson!

Now, this place was used to research the weaponization of the Cube!

After the Cube opened a wormhole that sucked in a strange staff, the scientist working on the Cube was baffled, but not until they were killed by Loki, who suddenly appeared near the Staff and began on his killing spree.

There was no one who could stop him as he also placed Hawkeye under his mind control!

In despair to prevent Loki from escaping with the Cube, Nick Fury activated the base's self-destruction system.

But unfortunately, Loki, Hawkeye, and Dr. Selvig escaped nonetheless with the Cube, leaving a frustrated Director Fury in front of a destroyed base.

A prelude to the war in the middle of the city of New York!The next day, Dio was still opening his business as usual, but as the last guest left the restaurant, a person that he hasn't seen for a long time suddenly showed up again.

"Hey beautiful, you are that IRS agent, right?" Will asked flirtatiously.

"You have good memories! So, can you be a dear and step outside for a couple of minutes? I need to talk with your boss in private!" Natasha said to Will with a flirtatious look that a normal man wouldn't be able to resist.

But Will was different, he was loyal to Dio no matter what happened, so he just stood there waiting for Dio to confirm whether he should step out for a while or not.

But as soon as Dio saw Natasha, he nodded to Will, signaling that he was okay, so Will immediately stepped out to smoke for a while.

"Natasha! I haven't seen you in a while! I heard that you have been on a mission as of late!" Dio said as he offered a drink to Natasha.

"Yeah, I haven't seen you in a while, but you are still weird! Couldn't you throw me a glass of wine instead of water?" Natasha asked teasingly.

"It's still working time, I'm personally a believer of no drinking while working kind of guy. But maybe I could ask you out tonight?" Dio asked teasingly.

"Thank you very much, but I am afraid we don't have time for that! A new trouble has arisen, this time the Asgardian who claimed himself as Loki appeared inside SHIELD's secret base and stole the Cube, a weapon that was being researched there! We need your help!" Natasha said hopefully.

Hearing Loki's name and Natasha's hopeful eyes, Dio tried to look away in annoyance!

He didn't expect Loki would come this fast, but fortunately for Dio, the plot of the movie was still the same!

But Dio had already predicted the plot wouldn't change if SHIELD were still researching the Cosmic Cube, Loki's arrival was inevitable.

But he couldn't blame SHIELD, they didn't know that Loki will eventually target the Cube and fearlessly charged inside the SHIELD's heavy-armed base like it was nothing.

The next thing that Dio started to think about was what role he needed to play in this upcoming war?

But one thing that he knew for sure was New York would become a battlefield, and no one was safe after that!

Dio also remembered that every little preparation that he had done to this day was for this upcoming war, and he relaxed a little bit and smiled to himself as he thought that maybe with his intervention, he could end this war earlier than it should!

"I need to know the detailed information of the incident, and also, what did the SHIELD need me to do?" Dio asked Natasha solemnly.

Natasha was surprised as this was the first time that Dio agreed to help without any unusual demand!

249 Preparation

Dio agreed to help SHIELD for now, but he also made sure that he won't join SHIELD in any way!

He knew that he had no obligation to help SHIELD, but he couldn't let the innocent people fall victim from this inevitable war, after all, Dio still had his own sense of justice, no matter how twisted it may be.

But he also had his own hesitation about joining this war, he knew that after this, the Avengers would have their own dilemma to the public, for the people would demand them to compensate for the destruction of New York!

Dio knew that was all bullshit!

There was no way a group of people that risked their lives to fight against an evil army was responsible for the destruction of those people's shit!

If Dio deals with that kind of people in the future, he won't hesitate to blow their heads off!

For this sole reason, Dio couldn't and had no intention to be shackled!

Natasha immediately relayed everything that Dio has said to Fury, and without hesitation, Fury agreed on Dio's term.

Fury knew that agreeing to Dio's term was a breach on SHIELD's policy, but there was no middle ground on the safety of the entire human race!

He couldn't be selfish and reject Dio's offer to help just because Dio didn't want to be part of the SHIELD!

So, knowing that the battle will take place in New York, Dio immediately called Will and all other people that he cared for and told them to take a vacation away from New York.

Fortunately for Will, Dio also agreed to pay for all his expenses wherever he wanted to go!

But for the rest of the people he cared for, he had to persuade them, such as Jessica and Kristin, who had their own work that they couldn't simply leave behind while Irene was still in school.

Dio also canceled all the reservations on his restaurant with a promise to reschedule soon, he also advised for all his guests to leave New York for the time being.

He knew that his guest would have no reason to take his warning seriously, and thus he hoped that they wouldn't be caught on the battle!

Dio then took Natasha to his villa, for he had to prepare some of his own necessity and a couple of things that he had to take before he went to SHIELD's base. He also took all the Snails that he put on the Aquascape on his villa.

"Look, you know this snail wasn't any normal snail, right? But it has more capabilities than communicating. It could keep you alive if your life is ever in danger!" Dio said solemnly.

"So, make sure that you keep it on you at all times and don't kill it, I have enough of Coulson's incident! Fortunately, it can keep on splitting into another snail if the main body wasn't dead, but it could only split to the maximum of nine now!" Dio added warningly.

"So, a total of ten persons could be included in this mind communication thing, including yourself?" Natasha asked curiously.

"No, it's nine including me! The one that Coulson killed couldn't regenerate anymore!" Dio said casually.

"Now, you know why I am so adamant on demanding a million dollar for what he did!" Dio said confidently.

"So, this is the weapon that you and Tony built?" Natasha said to change the topic of the conversation.

The SHIELD had noticed the strange electrical discharge and the explosion on Tony's villa, they also knew Tony and Dio had tested some kind of new weapon inside the Stark Building soon after!

So, Dio nodded, but he didn't explain anything regarding the {Grim Reaper}.

Natasha knew how Dio was. Therefore she didn't pester about the weapon anymore.

"So, where to next?" Dio asked Natasha casually.

"To Director Fury's location!" Natasha said casually, but Dio noticed that there was something that Natasha hasn't said yet.

"You have other tasks, don't you?" Dio asked knowingly.

"Well yeah, after I got you to Director Fury's location safely, I need to go to Kolkata to convince the Hulk to join us! You know, the more, the merrier!" Natasha said sarcastically.

"Wow, I am hurt! It seems my presence is not enough!" Dio said teasingly.

"Hold on! If it makes your ego any better, you are the hardest person in my book to convince! In fact, I've already prepared 32 different sets of scenarios to make sure you join us!" Natasha said annoyedly.

"Thanks to you, all of my preparation is wasted!" Natasha added sarcastically.

Dio smiled as he felt satisfied with Natasha's annoyance.

"Perhaps I do need to listen to those 32 scenarios! Now, I am quite curious about what you have prepared for me!" Dio said teasingly.

"I can say that one of them is a temptation! Kind of promising that there is nothing would happen afterward!" Natasha said flirtatiously.

"Now, I am starting to regret agreeing too fast!" Dio said jokingly.

Whether Natasha promised that she wouldn't do anything afterward, Dio would never bring Natasha to his bed!

First, Natasha was an 80-Year-old hag, and the second was Dio had already seen Natasha as a family member, not a love interest!

250 Assemble

"Are you seriously putting the fate of all humanity on the hands of a bunch freaks!" The International Security Council questioned Nick Fury furiously.

But Nick didn't care about any of their unreasonable requests and therefore, he continued with his plan confidently.

"Sir! Agent Romanoff and Mr. Dio have arrived!" An Agent reported to Nick casually.

Nick Fury immediately regained his composure and told the agent to send Natasha and Dio in.

A few minutes later, Dio and Natasha walked into Nick's office casually.

"I am a little bit shocked that you agreed to help almost immediately, it seems my investment earlier has finally paid off!" Nick said sarcastically.

"Perhaps I have jumped to the conclusion a little bit too fast, if I may, you could start over again as I walk out of the door!" Dio said teasingly.

"Forget it! Let's just talk about your payment now!" Nick said annoyedly.

Nick then nodded his head to Natasha, and she immediately left the room after that, it seemed Nick signaled for Natasha to do her other mission!

"Well, it seems I don't have any other option!" Dio said casually.

"What do you want?" Nick said solemnly.

"Well, all I need is delicious food and accommodation! I am a picky eater, and I am also picky when it comes to my sleep. And the second thing is that I am here as a guest of SHIELD, I am not your employee, and therefore, if I am unhappy, someone would also be unhappy!" Dio said casually.

"That's all? Are you sure?" Nick asked a little bit surprised by Dio's word.

"Of course not! Who do you think I am?! I also charge SHIELD for $ 100 a day as long as I am here!" Dio said casually.

"Did I hear you, right? $100? Did you forget a few zeros there?" Nick said in disbelief.

"Hey, I am not here to get rich!" Dio said casually.

Nick then stared at Dio seriously as if Dio was an imposter, but there was no telling, as Dio's personality was still the same as before, and so he agreed immediately.

"I heard that you and Tony had successfully created a superweapon, is it true? Can I have the honor to see it too?" Nick said as he changed the subject of the conversation.

"There would come a time for that, be patient!" Dio said as he smirked.A couple of days after, Bruce Banner, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, Tony Stark, Dio, and Nick Fury were assembled inside one room, Clint Barton and Thor were also supposed to be there, but Barton was still under Loki's spell, and Thor was still trying to find a way to get to earth!

"Now, what can we do to find this Loki guy? We have the resource to scan the camera and phones all over the earth, but I am afraid it will take time to do all that!" Nick said solemnly.

"As you finish doing that, the war would be here already!" Steve said solemnly.

"You have to narrow the search scope! It would be faster that way!" Banner said trying to give his input.

"And that is why you are here, Doctor!" Nick said solemnly.

"The Cube that he stole emitted Gamma Radiation, and we hope that you would be able to track him down with your expertise." Nick said solemnly.

"How many spectrometers did you have?" Banner asked curiously.

"How many do you need?" Nick countered.

"If you could contact all laboratories that have one and tell them to put the spectrometer on the roof and told them to set the spectrometer to calibrate and search for Gamma rays. I will draft an algorithm to find the specific Gamma wave that the Cube released from your data. At least we can rule out a place where the gamma wave wasn't detected, and I also need a place to work!" Banner said confidently.

"Agent Romanoff, could you please show Dr. Banner his workplace!" Nick said politely, Banner wasn't any different from any scientists that he has met before, slightly introverted, and shy, but the real reason that Banner was called was none other than the Hulk!

Romanoff and Banner soon left the room, and Nick immediately set his eyes to Tony.

"It pains me when you look at me like that!" Tony said sarcastically.

"No time Tony, how much did you know about portals? I believe that Loki was planning to create a portal so that he could bring the alien army to earth! It will be easier to predict his move if we know what the hell he needs next!" Nick said solemnly.

Nick Fury's analysis was correct, the only problem now was Dr. Selvig, he has already researched the Cube for quite some time.

The only one who could figure out Dr. Selvig's next move on Nick Fury's book was only Tony!

Tony was a genius who could master any form of knowledge, and Nick hoped he knew what to think of next!

"In theory, a lot of things were necessary in order to create a portal, but the difficult thing to find is probably not difficult if Barton was with them!" Tony said casually.

"So, what is it?" Nick said annoyedly.

"Iridium!" Dio said casually.

"Wow, I never knew you understand how Thermonuclear astrophysics works, I thought you only have the knowledge of Physics high school teacher!" Tony said sarcastically.

"Tony! Not this time!" Nick said annoyedly.

"Right, so yeah, Iridium! It can be used as a stabilizer, preventing the portal from collapsing by itself. It also works as the control so that they can control how big the portal would be and how long they want it to remain open!" Tony said explaining his knowledge.

"Oh yeah, the other thing that they need is also high-density energy to sustain the Cube while it's active!" Tony said as he remembered another essential thing to the portal.

"Does he need any specific type of energy?" Steve asked curiously, but Tony was interrupted before he could answer as an agent barged in and reported that Loki had been sighted in Stuttgart, Germany!

"Heinrich Schafer is in Stuttgart! Now it's clear that they are after the Iridium!" Nick said determinedly..

251 Dio vs Loki

Dio and the other Avengers members quickly arrived at Stuttgart, where they predicted Loki would appear!

Sure enough, they immediately received a feed from a private party that Loki was indeed there and that he currently turned the entire party his captive.

But as soon as Loki saw Captain America, he immediately bombarded the place, not caring for the life of the innocents around him!

This was different than what Dio knew Loki would do, in MCU, Loki deliberately let himself captured by Captain America and then used some trickery to release the Hulk!

So, Dio, who immediately realized that things were starting to change, immediately pulled out his [Grim Reaper] and chased Loki down.

Dio didn't think much of the people around him as it was Tony and Captain America's job to save them, Dio focused his attention solely on Loki, Dio really wanted to kill this man!

Even though Dio knew that Loki would redeem himself in the future, he wouldn't be able to change the consequences of his action right now!

After all, if he killed Loki right now, neither the New York Battle nor the Civil War would happen!

Loki was Looking at a strange man holding a horrifying weapon, Loki's mischievous look suddenly changed. He immediately replicated himself a bunch of times and immediately used the scepter power to make Dio kneel.

The scepter had the Mind Gem as its core, in theory, only a few people could resist its mind-controlling ability.

Tony who was nearby at the time instantly fell down from the sky and forced to kneel, Captain America was also forced to kneel, but he was still on the verge of resisting the Mind Gem, while it had no effect at Dio at all!

Dio had a strong mental fortitude, making the Mind Gem rather useless against him!

Dio then quickly swung his scythe towards Loki's replica and used [Hermit Purple] to attack Loki, but Dio was surprised as Loki was able to block [Hermit Purple]'s vine attack while slightly looking taken aback by the sudden attack, Dio began to wonder if it was possible that Loki had the ability to see his Stands?

Dio knew that Thor could somehow feel the Stand's presence, but he still couldn't see it, was it because of Loki's proficiency in magic that allowed him to notice the Stand image?

"Metal Silver Overdrive!" Dio said as he discharged a wave of his Hamon Energy towards the [Grim Reaper].

Loki immediately used the scepter to block Dio's attack, and as [Grim Reaper] clashed against the scepter, an explosion immediately sent Loki flying while Dio was holding his ground with the protection of his Hamon Energy.

Loki, who fell on the ground, immediately searched for his scepter, and immediately felt terrified as he saw the scepter was broken beyond repair!

This was the weapon that Thanos gave him, it had the power of the universe in it, how could a mortal weapon break it?

Dio didn't care about Loki's disturbed expression at all and immediately jumped in to deal the finishing blow to Loki.

"Dio, wait! Don't kill him yet!" Tony shouted from behind.

"Stop, we have to question him on the Cube's whereabout!" Captain America shouted worriedly.

"I surrender!" Loki said while holding his hands up to make sure that he wasn't killed, but Dio was already determined to change the plot of the current story by killing Loki, but as soon as he swung the Scythe towards Loki's head, a huge thunder struck Loki's location and [Grim Reaper] was immediately stopped by the Mjolnir!

Thor's domineering figure immediately stood between Loki and Dio.

"You saved my life once again, brother!" Loki said excitedly.

Thor didn't reply to Loki's sarcastic comment but instead held Loki down and place Mjolnir in Loki's chest to make sure that he couldn't go anywhere.

"Now, where is the Cube, Loki?!" Thor asked furiously.

"Now, now! don't start getting angry with me, brother! if it's not because of me, you wouldn't be able to return to Midgard!" Loki said solemnly.

"No, this is all because of you! I thought you were dead as you fell into the abyss!" Thor said angrily.

"I am sorry to interrupt, but you are holding our prisoner over there! We need him for further questioning down in the precinct!" Tony said sarcastically.

"Do you know him?" Captain America asked Tony as he felt Tony was talking to someone he knew.

"Well, he was the mythological Norse God, Loki the mischievous. He once tricked Odin to banish Thor to Earth without his godly power, and he also sent the Destroyer Armor to kill Thor, his own brother!" Tony said annoyedly.

"Hey, I haven't seen you in a while, I will talk to you once I find the Cube and take Loki to prison!" Thor said as he noticed Dio.

"Thor! Put him down! He stole the Cube while also taking so many innocent lives! I can't let you take him away!" Dio said coldly.

Thor suddenly frowned as he felt that the timing his father, Odin, sent him to Midgard was too coincidental, it was obvious to Thor that Odin still didn't want Loki to die!

252 Determinate

"Loki is Asgard's citizen. Therefore I have to take him to Asgard for trial!" Thor said confidently.

Loki was Thor's younger brother, even though he had a great affection towards Earth, he still had his responsibility for his family and Asgard!

"I hate to disappoint you, Thor! But this is Earth, we have our own law here!" Dio said coldly. He doesn't want to let Loki get away this time, for Dio deemed that he was the root of all trouble in the future!

Feeling that there is no way Thor would leave Loki in the Avengers's hand, Captain America immediately made his move. He ran towards Thor with his shield in hand. Thor, who also knew that he wouldn't be able to take Loki to Asgard peacefully, quickly called Mjolnir back and immediately swung it toward Captain America.

However, Captain America successfully blocked the attack, and because of his Shield's Vibranium core, the shield successfully absorbed all the energy from the impact!

Tony took it as a signal for him to attack too, he immediately shot Thor with his Palm Cannon with a bunch of small missiles to increase the firepower!

During all this, Dio kept his eyes locked on Loki's position, he knew that Loki would try to escape, and he couldn't let that happen!

As soon as Dio saw Loki made his move, he immediately ran toward Loki as fast as he could.

Loki saw Dio coming, and because he knew that there was no way that he would win against Dio and his weird weapon head-on, Loki returned to his magic nature, He began to chant his spell once again, but Dio was too fast, he reached Loki before he could finish his spell!

Loki immediately blocked Dio's scythe with his crumbling scepter once again, and fortunately for Loki, he succeeded once again on staying alive!

Thor, who was blown away by Tony's attack, saw that Dio was currently battling his brother.

Knowing that there was no way Loki would win against Dio, Thor immediately flew toward Loki in a flash and blocked Dio's next attack for him.

The situation became quite troubling. Thor proved himself capable of defending Loki as he knew that Dio and the others wouldn't kill him and thus making his move quite confident.

Moreover, Loki who was confident that Thor would always defend him began to chant another spell!

Loki wasn't the most powerful individual in Asgard, in fact, he could be considered weak in front of many Asgardian Warriors, but Loki had the strongest self-protection capabilities!

He could survive tenaciously in any environment he was thrown into!

"Thor, you better get out of my way! Did you ever think that you could stop me!" Dio said coldly.

"Don't you ever think I am weaker than you! I am not the mortal that you beat before, I have my divine power back now!" Thor said as he slammed Tony with Mjolnir, hit Captain America with his lightning strike, and blocked Dio's attack with Mjolnir.

Dio had enough!

After knowing that [Grim Reaper] couldn't break through Mjolnir's defense, Dio immediately summoned the [The World] and ordered him to punch the unsuspecting Thor!

Thor was smashed hard, he was sent flying into the nearest building, and Dio ordered for the [Hermit Purple] to bind Thor.

"Where do you think you're going, Mr. God!" Dio said as he blocked Loki's escape.

Loki carefully stepped back from Dio and bumped into Captain America's shield, Tony was also coming over while holding his palm cannon towards Loki!

Loki immediately raised his hands, signaling his surrender!

Tony and Steve looked at each other with a knowing look that their jobs were finally over for tonight, but at the same time, Dio was still holding on his weapon readily, Tony and Steve immediately understood that Dio had no intention to let Loki live!

"Hey, I already gave up!" Loki said nervously.

Tony and Steve immediately stepped forward and stopped Dio before he could get closer to Loki.

"Dio, stop! We still need to question him on the Cube's position! We have to take him back alive!" Tony said as he tried to reason with Dio.

"Dr. Banner would find the Cube! This guy is cunning, it is better for everyone if he is dead!" Dio said coldly.

There is no doubt in Dio's mind that whatever Loki has planned, he wouldn't follow any of it!

"Although I don't really know your true intention for killing this guy, I have a task to take him alive! Mr. Stark, if you may, please escort our prisoner back to the base!" Steve said confidently.

Dio immediately laughed as he began to wonder if Steve was also under Loki's brainwashing power, he couldn't understand why there were so many people there trying to save Loki.

But unbeknownst to everyone, Thor was already on top of everyone and immediately called a thunder strike on Dio and everyone else!

Fortunately for Dio and the others, they had their own means of protection, Dio with his Hamon Energy, Steve with his Vibranium Shield, and Tony with his Iron Man Armor.

But Thor wasn't using the lightning to strike the others down, he was using the thunder as a distraction as he grabbed Loki and immediately flew away.

Dio wouldn't have it Thor's way, he immediately shouted "The World!" and the [The World] immediately stopped the time!

Dio immediately chased Thor and jumped, he immediately deactivated [The World]'s ability and time resumed like normal.

At the same time, Thor was shocked as he saw Dio has already moved across the space and suddenly appeared beside him with his scythe!

Thor was too surprised to react, and thus, Dio immediately swung the [Grim Reaper] and successfully penetrated Loki's chest and crushed his heart!

"No!!!" Thor roared horrifyingly.

253 Thor Goes Wild

Loki fell from Thor's hand, lifeless!

Dio knew that there would be a possibility that Thor would resent him for this, but Dio didn't regret killing Loki at all!

As for the Cube that Loki stole, Dio had faith that Dr. Banner would definitely find it, so there was no real need to keep Loki alive!

Seeing Thor's distressed look, Dior silently retracted his weapon.

But the next thing that he noticed made Dio slightly unnerved, he noticed that the scepter that Loki always held wasn't on the body anymore, meaning that either Loki had thrown it away somehow or Loki wasn't dead yet!

"Thor, Loki isn't …!" Dio said, but he was immediately interrupted by Mjolnir hitting him straight in the chest!

He was flung into the nearby building and smashed the wall of the building!

Thor, whose eyes were bloodshot from crying over the death of his little brother, picked up Loki's lifeless body gently and stood up.

He felt anger that he never experienced before, as a result of this anger, the skies were filled with thunder clouds and occasional lightning.

When a normal person saw this scene, there was no doubt that they would think that the doomsday was coming!

Tony and Steve, who observed the fight from the sideline, were surprised by what happened.

They began to wonder was the god really as powerful as the myth has foretold.

But even if the myth was real, they wouldn't back off if it meant the god threatened the lives of the people on earth!

At the same time, Thor roared and immediately charged in at Tony and Steve with Mjolnir at his hands, but unfortunately for Thor, Tony and Steve didn't back away, in fact, Steve immediately blocked Mjolnir's attack with his shield, resulting with another sonic soundwave!

However, Thor didn't stop!

He kept pounding Steve's shield with Mjolnir relentlessly, but Tony, who immediately flew, targeted Thor with every weapon that he had in his arsenal and instantly fired it at Thor as he saw Steve managed to make some distance.

Tony then grabbed Steve and flew away from Thor to plan their next attack, but Thor immediately dropped them down from the skies as he threw his Mjolnir at Tony.

Tony was put out balance and accidentally threw Steve to the ground below, but Steve immediately used his shield to cushion his fall.

Natasha, who was piloting the Quinn Jet, saw everything that happened down below, she immediately provided support and fired the machine guns that the Quinn Jet had with two missiles towards Thor, this support from Natasha successfully prevented Thor from chasing after Tony and Steve.

But as Thor threw his hammer to bring Tony down from the sky, he did it again to the Quinn Jet. Once again, he successfully hit his target, the Quinn Jet!

Natasha and the other agents inside Quinn Jet immediately opened the hatch and opened their parachute. Fortunately, there is no casualty when the Quinn Jet was shot down!

At this time, Tony and Steve immediately regrouped and thought that it was best to fight Thor in a close battle so that he couldn't use his hammer to hurt others.

They began fighting Thor on hand to hand combat basis, but they were overpowered by Thor in no time!

After all, Thor was still Asgard's best fighter aside from Odin!

"Where is that Dio guy? We need his help out here!" Steve said nervously.

"How do I know! Maybe he has knocked out already!" Tony said annoyedly.

Tony kept absorbing Thor's thunder and launched an attack as his battery was constantly recharged by the thunder, while Steve still fought Thor in close combat, preventing Thor from getting away.

Meanwhile, Dio was busy searching for the real Loki as he knew that he wasn't dead yet!

Dio didn't get knocked out by Thor's attack earlier, but he immediately chose not to show up as he didn't want to let Loki escape!

But no matter how hard he searched for Loki, he couldn't find any trace of him!

In the end, while Thor, Steve, and Tony were still in a deadlock, Dio came toward Loki's corpse and inspected Loki's body to see if there were any abnormalities, but he still couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"Is it possible that I actually killed the real Loki?" Dio wondered to himself, but in the end, he still believed that the corpse was just another trick that Loki has thrown, the evidence was clear!

The scepter wouldn't be gone if Loki was dead!

254 Tricked

If his guess was right, that meant everyone was fooled by Loki!

And there was no need for Thor to continue rampaging.

In other words, this fight was pointless!

Maybe, Loki was hiding somewhere nearby and smiling evilly while observing everyone's fight, but it was more likely that he has already escaped!

But he realized that this wasn't the time for him to think about Loki's trick.

After all, whether he was right or wrong, he still had to stop Thor's anger and the pointless fight between Thor, Steve, and Tony!

The next thing that happened was Tony being thrown to Dio's direction after getting hit by the Mjolnir, and Dio immediately saved Tony from the impact of falling to the ground.

"What took you so long?! I thought you died after getting hit by that guy, but I understand if you didn't want to fight that guy after you killed his brother, I would have run too!" Tony said sarcastically.

"I really want to chop your tongue to pieces! I really hate that sarcastic nature of yours!" Dio said annoyedly as he dropped Tony to the ground.

"You want to chop me up with the weapon that I made? Oh, the irony!" Tony said, still with his sarcastic remarks as he stood back up.

After that, Steve was also thrown towards Dio and Tony, seeing that Steve was already bruised up and left panting, Tony and Dio knew that he was done for today.

At the same time, Thor immediately noticed Dio standing near his brother's corpse and his anger immediately flared up again, he knew that Dio wasn't part of his family as he has already asked his father if there were any relatives living in Midgard, and Odin had said that there were none of their relatives living in Midgard at the moment.

So, in Thor's eyes, Dio was just a mortal with superhuman abilities!

"Dio, why did you kill Loki?" Thor shouted angrily.

"Why? Don't you know that your brother has killed countless humans earlier?!" Dio said casually.

But Dio's indifferent response annoyed Thor more than before, but in fact, Dio was ticked off by the fact that Thor thought killing humans wasn't that big of a deal.

"Loki did commit an unforgivable sin, but you shouldn't kill him like that! Whatever the crime may be, he still had to be judged and punished accordingly first!" Thor said sadly.

No one really knew that Thor was happy to see that Loki was still alive, and no one really knew how deep his love towards his brother really was!

Thor didn't hate Dio for killing Loki.

In fact, he hated himself for incapable of becoming a good brother to Loki and failed to beg his father to send him to Midgard faster!

Dio seemed to finally understand Thor's true feeling, and he knew that Thor would blame himself for this and wallow in regret later!

After all, the feeling of incapability was a festering wound that was hard to heal.

Standing from the bystander's point of view, it was easy to give an encouraging word, but in the end, none of it would work!

"Stop this senseless battle, Thor! Loki isn't dead yet!" Dio said as he lowered his scythe.

He wanted to change the story plot, but it seems he lost his opportunity, and in the end, nothing changed!

After all, Dio knew that if Loki was still alive, Thor would never let Dio get anywhere close to him again.

"What are you talking about? How can you be so sure!" Thor said as he was bewildered by Dio's word.

"Don't you know Loki's power? Did you really think that he would be killed here so easily?" Dio said matter-of-factly.

The more Dio conveyed his thought to Thor, the more Thor realized that Dio was correct!

He knew that his brother could escape such a critical situation easily.

In fact, he has seen his brother did it time and time again!

While Dio has known that Loki was so hard to kill like a cockroach!

In fact, after watching the Avengers: Infinity War, he immediately dove into a fan forum and noticed that everyone was convinced that Loki, who was killed by Thanos, was just an illusion, or at least, it wasn't the real Loki!

"Loki is not dead?" Thor said dumbfounded.

"Probably, I noticed it after I couldn't find the scepter that he always held before!" Dio said casually.

"But why hasn't his clone disappeared yet?" Thor asked wonderingly.

"You should have known better about that than I did! He is your brother after all, so you should have known his abilities better than I did!" Dio said annoyedly.

"You are right! Loki is very good at hiding, so I am sorry that I have jumped to the conclusion too soon!" Thor said sincerely to Dio.

Dio held his silence annoyedly, he knew that Loki kept using this same trick to trick Thor repeatedly in the future, but Thor always seemed happy to see his brother again!

Dio couldn't help but thought that Thor was a little bit masochistic in a way..

255 Reason

Thor didn't exactly believe all that Dio had said, but he hoped Dio was right!

He really wished Loki was still alive!

But Thor quietly thought of Loki's behavior as soon as he met him, and he knew that the scepter that Loki was holding was there as Dio pierced Loki's chest, but it disappeared without anyone knowing, Loki was the only one there who was capable of that!

It means that Loki would appear again and create another mayhem!

Thor decided to follow Dio for now and see what Loki's intention in Midgard was, he would help the Midgardian if Loki was plotting something evil again!"The conclusion for now is Earth is still in danger, and Loki is more likely to have escaped and continue with his plan in secret!" Steve said as he concluded what has happened so far.

"There is another issue! Dr. Heinrich Schafer was officially dead, we have a report that said Agent Barton infiltrated the iridium vault and took all of it!" Agent Hill said indifferently.

"That means Loki has everything that he needs in order to create the portal! That also means that Loki was only buying some time by distracting us long enough so that Barton can finish his job on getting the iridium!" Nick said as he looked at Dio, Steve, Tony, and Thor.

Dio and Tony were slightly annoyed of Nick's accusing eyes, but for Nick Fury, this was the first time that he ever doubted the creation of this team, without coordination and a leader, everyone just did whatever they saw fit!

If this continues, Nick knew that they would never be able to save anything!

"Thor, I need your answer to this! What is your purpose for coming back to Earth this time?!" Nick said coldly.

"I am here to retrieve Loki and the Cube and return to Asgard where Loki would be judged and punished while the Cube would be kept in tight security!" Thor said confidently.

Hearing Thor's answer, Nick was slightly relieved, at least the Asgardians and the Avengers had the same goal in mind.

But still, Thor's end goal was a bit of a problem, as he would take both Loki and the Cube back to Asgard.

After all, he has already intended for Loki to be one of his inmates inside the Raft, while he also wanted to continue the SHIELD's research on the Cube!

But still, Nick wasn't a fool, the most important thing at the moment was to defend the Earth!

"Okay, I would let you take Loki and The Cube back to Asgard as long as you help us defend the Earth for whatever comes out from Loki's portal!" Nick said confidently.

Nick's decision didn't receive a positive response from the other Avengers, Tony looked at Nick with mocking smile while Steve's frowns deepened as he heard Nick's word.

All of them looked at Dio simultaneously, as they know that Dio would do something to the extreme if he disliked something, but neither Dio seemed to care, nor did he say anything, he still closed his eyes as he was resting.

Steve didn't know Dio on a personal level, but from the information that he read and the fight earlier, he had to admit that Dio was a wild card!

He openly said that he would kill and seriously hold on to his words and do it!

Steve knew that he and Dio would have a tough time getting along in the future!

After the meeting ended, Dio was left alone with Nick Fury.

"I heard the report of the fight earlier from Natasha, she said that Loki was already arrested when you stubbornly tried to kill him, why did you do that? Even when Thor, Tony, and Steve were there blocking your path!" Nick asked curiously.

"Now, Director Fury, did you think Loki deserved to die?" Dio asked a question instead of answering Nick's question.

"Of course! He has already killed more than 200 people in just two days! That is truly inhuman!" Nick said without hesitation!

"Then, would you kill him if he ever gets caught?" Dio asked another question.

"I will not do that!" Nick said with a sullen look on his face.

"Why? Is it because he was an Asgardian?" Dio asked.

"I know where your question would go, but from my standpoint, the safety of the Earth comes as a priority! With that in mind, Loki couldn't die, at least not at the hand of Earthlings! I couldn't let the Loki's death became the reason for Asgard to attack Earth! So, please, for god sake, put away your dangerous thought!" Nick said solemnly.

Nick's answer was under Dio's expectation, he knew that Nick's answer revolved around the safety of the Earth, but in the end, Asgard would fall, and nothing would matter, but still Dio couldn't say that.

"Now, after saying all that stuff, my answer to your question wouldn't matter anymore, isn't that so Director Fury?" Dio said casually.

"Have you ever heard of the saying that a weak country has no voice? A lion doesn't care about the demands of an ant? We used to think that Human was the master of the universe, but as our eyes were opened to the lives outside our planet, now we know that the Earth was just one weak trivial existence! We used to think that we are the lion, but as of now, we know that we are the ant! But at the same time, I believe that the Earth won't always be this weak! I believe that the Earth would grow if we have the opportunities, so when the times comes, there would be no creature out there who dared to initiate an attack on us!" Nick said confidently.

"That is my take on the current situation, it may be too ideal for some people, but I really believe we could achieve all of that!" Nick said solemnly..

256 Conspiracy

The SHIELD agent resumed on Facial Recognition around the world to find Loki and his group.

In the meantime, Loki appeared after Barton and Dr. Selvig, holding the Mind Stone Sceptre in his hands.

"How is the portal's progress doing?" Loki asked coldly.

"Wow, you are still alive? I mean, Agent Barton saw you got killed by the mortal out there! I wonder how that guy could appear next to you instantaneously like that." Dr. Selvig said curiously.

At the same time, Barton immediately aimed his bow at Loki, suspecting that this Loki was a fake.

"Oh, stand down Barton! The one that was killed was just my illusion!" Loki said to Barton annoyedly.

Loki raised his scepter, and an electric shock suddenly shocked Barton and Dr. Selvig.

"Did you believe me now?" Loki said coldly.

"Of course, master!" Dr. Selvig said obediently.

The shock just now was the magic that Loki used that has been amplified by the Mind Stone Sceptre. He wasn't controlling the mind of Barton or even Dr. Selvig's, but instead, Loki locked their mind and created another personality for them both, but the new personality had every memory that the locked one had, but Loki also slipped in some fake memory in there!

"Good, now tell me your current progress? Is it done yet?" Loki asked about the portal again.

"I believe we have all the raw materials we need. All we need to solve now is about the energy issue, in order to open the portal, we need to have a huge supply of energy!" Dr. Selvig said indifferently.

"Doctor, I believe you already have the target in mind, right?" Loki said casually.

"Of course, but I believe we have to create another distraction, for the place that I have targeted for the energy was too close to the enemy right now!" Dr. Selvig said confidently.

But Loki couldn't help but felt a little annoyed that they needed another distraction.

Remembering his fight with the madman with the scythe again was enough to send him into PTSD!

He exhausted all his escape options just to escape the madman; at first, he wanted to be captured foolishly and delved into the enemy's base and destroyed the base from the inside.

But thanks to the madman, he couldn't do that!

His life was in danger as the madman tried to kill him on the spot!

"I couldn't show up in front of them again, at least not this fast! Agent Barton, how about you? after all, you are the one who knows about the enemy the most!" Loki said to Barton.

"Sure, I don't mind!" Barton said as he smirked and his eyes were full of killing intent."Dr. Banner, how is it going?" Nick Fury asked as he walked inside Banner's lab.

"The search program has been completed, now I am still scanning through the radar, and it is already at 40%, I believe we could find it soon!" Dr. Banner said confidently.

At the same moment, Dio kept pestering Tony.

"Tony! Are you sure that they aren't in the Stark Building?" Dio asked repeatedly.

"For the third god damn time, they are not! I've already called the satellite surveillance for the building, and if the Cube appeared there, I would be the first one to know!" Tony said annoyedly.

Dio was slightly confused, he knew that the movie plot would let the enemy to Stark Building in order to use the clean energy that Tony supplied throughout the building, but if they weren't there at this moment, where would they be? Was it because of his meddling with Loki earlier, making the trickster god refrained from using the Stark Building?

Dio immediately tried to check Loki's location with the [Hermit Purple, but he was blocked by a more powerful force!

Dio immediately realized that the [Hermit Purple]'s ability was nullified by the Mind Stone's ability!

It was not that [Hermit Purple] was weak but, more like the Infinity stone was far too overpowered!

At the same time, Tony, who has been reading SHIELD's secret document the entire time, told everyone to hold up for a second.

"Director Fury, would you kindly explain what does this 'Phase 2' mean?" Tony said to Nick Fury sarcastically.

"Probably a weapon." Dio said subconsciously, he immediately realized that he wasn't the one being asked and then shrugged his shoulder casually.

As Nick Fury was about to speak, Tony interrupted once again as he let everyone knew that the document that he was holding was none other than 'Weaponizing the Cube'.

This time, Dr. Banner stood up and looked at Nick Fury coldly.

"I want to know what is this all about?" Dr. Banner asked coldly.

"This is all because of him!" Fury said while pointing his finger to Thor, he immediately sighed and started to explain the document.

"A few months ago, Aliens came to Earth and started a fight, one of them successfully razed a small town to the ground! That was also the time that the government around the world realized that Human wasn't alone in this universe. Furthermore, the International Security Council also knew that the army and some of the Earth trusted 'Superheroes' couldn't do anything about the Tin Alien!" Nick said annoyedly.

"Excuse me, am I not the one that grounded the 'Tin Alien' that you speak of?" Dio said annoyedly.

"But you were almost done for, didn't you?" Nick said annoyedly.

"Yeah, but I still subdued it at the end!" Dio said, holding his ground.

"Wait a minute. You guys are talking about the Destroyer, aren't you? I remember that I was the one that defeated it!" Thor said, trying to brag.

"Obviously not hard enough! As soon as you leave to Asgard, the Destroyer rose once again, and I make sure that it would never rise again, permanently!" Dio said annoyedly.

"That was a shame! I should knock it out even harder than!" Thor said challengingly.

"Hey, this is not the time to be fighting! We are off the topic here!" Steve said as he stood between Thor and Dio..

257 Chaos

Suddenly, the aircraft was hit hard from the side! Everyone was shaken and thrown around, then the alarm blasted off inside the ship, signalling the enemy was attacking.

"There was an explosion in engine 3, we are being attacked!" Agent Hill said as she rushed towards the room where the Avenger gathered.

"Gentlemen, the enemy has come to our door! Prepare to fight!" Nick Fury said as he immediately rushed towards the cockpit, where he would resume his position as commanding officer to ease the chaos.

Tony immediately suited up and Steve quickly took his shield, while the others made their own preparations. But, Dio was unfazed! he expected this attack from the start, but he was a little confused as Loki wasn't here this time! Dio walked out of the room and immediately bumped into Coulson, Coulson looked at Dio for a moment and immediately ran off again to fight against the enemy.

Dio immediately arrived at Dr. Banner's room and Natasha was already there, trying to calm the nervous Banner.

"Dio, do something!" Natasha shouted as she was frantically trying to calm Banner.

Dio thought over the top priority now, he knew that Steve and Tony were on the mission to fix the engine and all other SHIELD's agents were fighting against Barton and several other enemies.

So, the next thing he had to do was get the Hulk out of the ship!

"I am sorry Dr. Banner, but you are not safe staying on this ship!" Dio said politely and immediately grabbed Banner and took him to the special chamber where a glass container with the open space below it. Dio then put Dr. Banner inside the glass container and locked the door.

"What is this? where did you take me?" Banner said as he getting more anxious. But suddenly, he transformed into the hulk with a roaring sound.

Dio was a little bit startled on the transformation as the Hulk really was scary after seeing it up close, the Hulk then smashed the windows and the Glass container immediately fell to the open space below, this Glass Container was designed to contain the Hulk in particular! But before Dio could sigh in relief, he saw a huge green palm hanging on the edge of the Heli carrier, he looked out below and saw the Hulk's angry face staring at him!

"Oh, shit! This is the worst outcome possible!" Dio said as he thought on how to fight against the Hulk.Meanwhile, Natasha and Thor stood together against the enemy, but they both quickly beat the opponent in a short amount of time! After all, they both had an amazing combat skill! But suddenly, an energy beam shot through the air right towards Thor, fortunately, Thor was able to defend against the attack. However, Thor realized that the attack was coming from Loki's sceptre.

"Loki! Is that you?" Thor shouted.

"I am sorry to burst your bubble, but it was me!" Barton said as he shot another energy beam from the sceptre.

"Where is Loki? Why is his sceptre with you?" Thor asked coldly.

"Loki? Isn't he already dead? You even take his body back with you! The sceptre is different! It was my real master!" Barton said amusedly.

"Impossible! Come out, Loki! don't be a coward!" Thor shouted to the air, taunting Loki.

Thor then threw the hammer toward Barton but he missed, Barton knew that he wasn't Thor's opponent, so he left Thor alone instead of fighting him head on. Thor tried to catch him but the enemy agent quickly opened fire, distracting him enough, to give Barton time to escape.Barton's memory of when he was a SHIELD agent was still there, he knew how the Helicarier works, and so he immediately went toward the upper deck, where the control room would be. This also meant that Nick Fury and the other high ranked agent would also be there! But as soon as he was about to destroy the wall towards the control room, a familiar voice immediately interrupted him.

"Drop that weapon, Barton! You should know what I am holding right now!" Coulson said coldly. He was holding a high-tech weapon that was made by using the Destroyer as the model, this weapon could shoot out the disintegration beam, same as the Destroyer, but a slightly weaker one!

"Coulson, just give it up! I know you wouldn't shoot me!" Barton said confidently.

"Think again!" Coulson said as he shot the ceiling right above Barton's head. Suddenly, Natasha dropped from the ceiling that Coulson shoot and immediately kicked Barton down and restrained him! Barton was right, Coulson was too kind to ever shoot a comrade in arms, but he surely could find another way to subdue the person!

But clearly, Natasha and Coulson underestimated Barton's skill, he immediately dislocated his arm and reached toward Natasha's widow maker and shocked her with it! Natasha who was weakened, thanks to her own weapon couldn't help but let Barton go. Coulson immediately threw his weapons down and reached for a gun in his back, he couldn't use the previous weapon as it would kill Barton immediately, but at least Barton could be saved if he was shot with a standard gun!

But Coulson wasted too much time! Because of his hesitation, Barton that was free from Natasha's restraint immediately reached for a gun in Natasha's waist and shot Coulson!

Coulson was shot around his abdomen! Blood splattered and Coulson himself was vomiting blood! Loki's sceptre was there near Coulson, Barton didn't have the time to recover it again this time!

"Coulson, no! Medic! Help! Someone, help!" Natasha shouted as she tried to give pressure to Coulson's wound.

"No, Natasha, I am done for! Please bring Barton back for me, but promise me, don't let him know the truth about my death!" Coulson said weakly..

258 White Album

Dio was still busy with the Hulk, but he was completely on the defensive as he couldn't kill the Hulk or deal any damage that he didn't regenerate instantly. Dio was quickly thrown to a wall and into the next room by the raging Hulk!

"You have done it now!" Dio said annoyedly. He walked toward the Hulk menacingly while the temperature around him was quickly dropping! "I will let you taste my new stand!" Dio said as his body was covered by a light-coloured exoskeleton. This is the power of [White Album]!

Stand Name: White Album

Description: An ice stand that excelled in defence!

Type: Close Range Stand

Ability: Gently Weeps

Ability description: immediately decrease the temperature in the surrounding area to absolute zero (-215 C)!

Attributes:

Destructive power: A

Speed: C

Range: C

Sustainability: A

Precision: E

Growth: E

Evaluation: There is nothing that this stand couldn't freeze!This was the first time Dio would officially used the [White Album] since he got it earlier, he never expected to use it to an enraged ally! The Hulk, who didn't know what was happening, roared and became angrier as he felt chilled to the bone.

The Hulk quickly rushed towards Dio, ready to smash him like before!

"I have no time to face you, Banner! I hope that you can calm down as soon as you are cool! White Album, Gently weeps!" Dio said coolly.

In an instant the surrounding area within 10 meters around Dio was covered by a hardened ice! The Hulk whom was charging towards Dio immediately fell victim to this ability too! He was instantly slowed down and the Hulk's body was immediately frozen, turning him into an ice sculpture! Dio knew that the Hulk wouldn't last on this state for long, but it would be enough to calm him down, at least Dio hoped so!

But as a precaution, Dio immediately created a hole in the wall and threw the Hulk outside! Dio immediately created an ice wall to close the big hole again.

"Now, it is time to end this mess!" Dio said annoyedly. He de-summoned [White Album] and summoned the [Hanged Man] to kill the enemies quickly!After quite a while, the battle was over, the invader was finally put down, but the price was too big! With Agent Coulson's death, everyone on the ship was silent as they felt responsible for the smiling agent's death! Everyone felt bad and the meeting that Nick Fury held after was gloomy.

After the meeting, Nick held Steve on the room to talk with him personally.

"Steve, this card was found inside Coulson's jacket, it seems he didn't have the time to ask for your autograph." Nick said as he threw the card toward Steve. "I was the one with the idea to gather the earth's mighty individual to form a team called the Avenger, that would save the earth against an unknown threat. Phil Coulson believes in that idea, and he keeps on believing until he died! He believes in superheroes! he believes in you!" Nick said as he confided Steve to become the leader of the Avenger.

Meanwhile in the other room inside the ship...

"Thank you, Dio! If it weren't for you to give me that snail, I would have really died!" Coulson said as he thanked Dio for saving his life.

"Just remember that this was the second time that you have killed my pet!" Dio said casually.

"Don't worry about that, SHIELD would compensate for your lost!" Natasha said annoyedly. "You never said to me that the snail would be able to bring people back from death!" She said as she frowned at Dio.

"Well, you didn't ask and I also forgot to mention it! Also, it didn't bring people back from death, I can't revive people you know!" Dio said casually.

"So, start talking then, it may save lives in the future if people knew what the ability of the snail would be, it may be me next time!" Natasha said, still frowning at Dio. Coulson was beside her when he was about to die, but as Coulson was bleeding to death, a small snail that was the same as the one that Dio gave to her, crawled out of Coulson's pocket, and suddenly glowed with a golden light! Suddenly after the light dimmed out, Coulson's wound was healing and like a miracle, Coulson was saved from dying!

However, after she reported everything back to Nick Fury, Nick immediately told her to not tell the Avenger about Coulson's revival, he thought that Coulson's death would be a factor that could unite those superheroes! However, Nick Fury couldn't hide this fact from Dio, as it was thanks to his snail that Coulson survived!

"In the first place, I don't want to tell anyone about anything regarding the snail! You know that once the snail saved someone from the verge of dying, the snail would lose its life! not only that, but the snail isn't a miracle worker, if the person that it saved wasn't treated immediately, they could still die, the snail could only extend someone's life for just quite some time!" Dio said annoyedly.

After Dio explained the Snail's ability, Natasha was silent as she finally understood the worth of the snail! It was equivalent to having one more life! Previously, Natasha wanted to ask Dio to distribute the snail to the rest of the Avengers, but now she didn't know how to ask that kind of demand!

At the same time, Thor was anxiously walking back and forth in front of Barton's room. He wanted to know the truth about Loki's well-being after Barton woke up! He believed Dio's word before, but after seeing that Barton came attacking with Loki's sceptre, Thor had a bad omen.

Once he saw that Barton woke up, Thor immediately pushed the guards aside and walked in to question Barton personally!

259 Plan

"I've found it! Dr. Selvig showed up at Stark Tower with the Cube!" Tony said excitedly, drawing everyone's attention towards him.

"Okay, we have to go there immediately!" Steve said commandingly.

"Sure, I'll tag along!" Thor said confidently. He walked in with Barton as Tony announced that he found the Cube. Obviously, Barton has already recovered from Loki's mind control Thor has already gotten the answer he needed!

"Are you okay, Barton?" Natasha asked worriedly.

"Yeah, my arm's already healed, although it still hurts, it will be okay! I will avenge the agents' death, of course Coulson's too!" Barton said with determination.

"Barton, Coulson told me in his dying breath that he wanted us to bring you back! The one who killed Coulson was Loki, you are in his control, none of that is your fault!" Natasha said worriedly.

"Now, in order to avoid any worst outcome, I will temporarily lend you this thing! But remember, I only lend it to you!" Dio said as he gave the snail one by one to Tony, Thor, Barton, and Steve to ease the atmosphere a little bit.The Avenger was in a Quinn Jet over New York skies heading towards Stark Building, while there was no talking heard, everyone was actually using the snail to communicate.

"This is amazing! Why did you never tell me about this fun thing?" Tony said sarcastically.

"Is this thing reading my mind or what? Is this telepathy?" Steve asked curiously.

"It seems like one." Barton said indifferently.

"What is this creature? Why have I never seen it in Asgard's nine realm biology before?" Thor asked curiously.

"Maybe you skipped class too much!" Natasha said teasingly.

"For starter, the universe is so vast! There are so many creature that maybe Asgard would not know about, so please stop fussing about the snail and focus at the task at hand!" Dio said annoyedly.

"Well, that is true! I have seen a lot of strange races out there, for example the Citaury that Loki commanded was a biomechanical race! If the Earth has the technology to travel the space, I believe you will also see a lot of new races that you haven't seen before!" Thor said, annoying Dio even more.On the rooftop of Stark Building, Dr. Selvig was busy installing the teleportation device, but when he was about to activate the portal, the energy that he got from hijacking the Stark Tower was cut off!

"Dr. Selvig, I have shut down the Ark Reactor that provided the energy for this entire building. You have failed doctor, hand over the Cube and surrender now!" Tony said while Thor was beside him.

"You are right! I have lost, take it away!" Dr. Selvig said as he threw the Cube to Thor. Tony sensed something was wrong as there was no way Dr. Selvig would surrender this easily! At the same time, Thor received the Cube and once he spun it around in his hands, the Cube ticked!

Tony and Thor instantly knew that what Dr. Selvig has just thrown towards them wasn't the real Cube, it was an energy bomb! Thor immediately threw the bomb high into the air with all his strength, and suddenly an energy explosion was catching New Yorker's attention!

Thor and Tony were directly blown away as the result of the explosion while Dr. Selvig has died on the spot! Dio and the others who couldn't fly and still inside the Quinn Jet didn't know what happened but, fortunately they could stabilize the fighter jet and didn't crash!

"Tony, Thor! Are you guys okay?" Natasha asked worriedly through the snail.

"I am still alive, the god too, unfortunately!" Tony said sarcastically.

"What happened? What is that explosion?" Natasha asked again.

"That was an energy bomb that Dr. Selvig has prepared! He was trying to lure us, but he didn't have the Cube with him! we were deceived!" Tony said annoyedly.

Dio was clearly annoyed too, Loki has proven himself that he was more cunning than Dio was! He kept escaping Dio's clutch again and again!

At the same moment, a blue beam was shot through the sky several kilometers away from the Stark building.

"That direction was SHIELD's New York base!" Natasha said worriedly. This time Dio realised that Loki has given up on using the Stark Tower as the teleportation base, instead he used SHIELD's base that was unguarded!

"I will contact the Headquarters and ask them to turn off the energy supply for the entire base!" Natasha said nervously.

"It's too late! Once the Cube is activated it will sustain itself!" Tony said solemnly.

"Then what should we do?" Natasha asked worriedly.

"Since the worst has happened, there is nothing else that we could do except fighting!" Dio said solemnly as he pulled out his scythe from the box that he held.

"Dio is right! There is nothing else that we can do except fight them head on!" Steve said courageously.

"Then, we shouldn't waste any more time! Captain, assign our role!" Tony said as he stood up and suit up once again.

For the first time in this world, the Avenger has united in one voice, finally the team that Nick Fury envisioned has been created!

"We have to go to the battlefield first! I will tell you what to do once I saw the situation over there!" Steve said commandingly..

260 Liberation

In the SHIELD's New York base, Loki was seen guarding the strangely shaped machine at the top of the building with the SHIELD's agent corpses all around him!

Loki has already known all SHIELD's secrets from Barton, including the Avenger project that Nick Fury has made. After all, Barton was a high-level Agent!

Because of that, Loki has succeeded in drawing the Avenger's attention and opening the portal in a place that the Avenger least expected!

Now that the Chitauri Army was successfully summoned, no one could interrupt his plan anymore. Not even the Avenger would be able to deal with this many enemies at once! At least that was what he thought!

"Loki, turn that thing off! Otherwise, I would be forced to beat you down!" Thor said as he flew towards Loki.

"Look at you, my stupid brother! there is no stopping this device anymore! Not you, not even me! The war has begun!" Loki said proudly.

Thor looked at Loki with disappointment in his eyes. He knew that there was nothing else he could do to stop Loki beside beating him down!"Sir, there is a lot of heat signals coming from the portal!" Jarvis said indifferently to Tony.

"I can see that! Jarvis, lock on to all of them for me!" Tony said as he began to fly towards the enemy and started shooting them down.

Meanwhile, Steve, Barton, Natasha, and Dio got off the Quinn Jet and started fighting against the enemy on their own capabilities.

Dio was holding the Scythe that was trembling on his hand. Dio knew that the Scythe wasn't trembling in fear, but trembling in excitement instead.

After all, [Anubis] was the god of death and therefore, it would always get excited while confronted by the opponent that he could kill!

But, Dio was too deep in his own thought that he failed to realize that he was already surrounded by the Chitauri army.

"Dio, getaway! You are surrounded!" Natasha said as she saw Dio on the rooftop.

"No, this is perfect!" Dio said through the mind link from the snail and smirked as that saved him the trouble from chasing the enemy!

Dio immediately channeled his Hamon Energy inside the Scythe, and that made the Scythe glowed in bright red color.

"Die!" Dio shouted as he spun the Scythe around. Countless red energy waves cut through the air, cutting the Chitauri army like tofu! Alien's corpses, along with their destroyed tech, covered Dio's surroundings!

This scene shocked Natasha and the other. They thought that they should assist Dio because he was the most compromised position among the other Avengers, but after seeing Dio in action, they immediately put that thought away! After all, Dio was killing the enemy like a butcher killing chicken!As Dio kept mincing the enemy soldiers that came towards him, the portal fizzed, and a new kind of enemy appeared! A huge leviathan creature swam through the air, releasing a new soldier from its side and bombing the place beneath it!

Furthermore, the Leviathan was covered with a dense armor, even Iron Man's missile didn't work against it!

"Did you see that thing? How can we destroy it?" Steve said as he spoke through the mind link.

"I definitely saw it! but none of my weapons works against it!" Tony said as he stopped shooting the Leviathan.

"Did anybody see Banner yet?" Tony asked casually.

At the same time, Banner showed up while driving a golf cart with a safety helmet on. This scene could be funny on its own, but because of the situation they were currently in, they couldn't laugh at Banner.

"Am I late?" Banner asked shyly.

"a little bit, but you are not too late for the main course just yet!" Steve said as he pointed his finger towards the Leviathan.

"Okay, but please tell me if you want to throw me from a thousand meter down! So that I can mentally prepare myself!" Banner said casually.

"Well, you should talk to the one who throws you from the helicarrier yourself! He is over there!" Barton pointed to the rooftop. Banner looked up, and it was already horrifying! The place that Dio stood on was full of Chitaury soldier's dead body!

"Uhm, maybe someone else could talk to him beside me?" Banner said nervously..

261 Silver Chariot

Seeing that no one volunteered, Banner felt awkward, "He looks so terrifying right now!" Banner said meekly.

"I have seen more terrifying things!" Natasha said casually.

"It's okay to be scared, but now we need something scarier! Banner, it is time to be angry!" Steve said to Banner commandingly.

"Captain, that is my secret! I am always angry!" Banner said as he started to turn green and roared loudly.

The Hulk started to jump towards the enemy on the wall of the building and smashed them with each other, but as soon as the Leviathan was on his sight, Hulk roared once again and jumped to the Leviathan's back and started pounding it down!

Tony, who was observing the Leviathan for quite a while, immediately fired a missile as he saw that The Hulk had made an opening on the Leviathan's armor.

The Leviathan was immediately blown into bits as Tony's missile successfully blew it apart!

This was the kind of teamwork that Nick Fury has envisioned while creating the team, but everyone's happiness was short-lived as they saw that several Leviathans came out of the Portal, followed by a large amount of enemy flying with their glider.

"You have to find a way to close that Portal. Otherwise, this battle would never end! We wouldn't be able to hold them down if that happens!" Steve said as he stated his opinion

"The Portal was protected by some form of energy barrier! I couldn't get through to destroy it!" Thor said as he arrived after battling Loki for quite a while.

"Why are you only telling bad news?" Tony said to Thor sarcastically.

"I think Loki's scepter would be able to penetrate the barrier and destroy the Portal! Otherwise, he wouldn't keep holding onto that thing that tightly!" Dio said as he suggested the way to destroy the Portal, he knew that the sceptre would be able to destroy the Portal as the Mind Gem wouldn't be affected by the Space Gem inside the Cube!

"You should've told me that sooner!" Natasha said as she was currently holding the scepter in her hands.

"You guys go handle the Portal! I will hold the enemy by myself!" Dio said confidently.

"You will not deal with them alone, Dio! I will be right here helping you! This is not the time to act heroically!" Thor said to Dio confidently.

"Yeah, we feel the same way!" Tony, Steve, and Barton said simultaneously.

"Alright, you win! Captain, take command!" Dio said casually. Dio felt a little bit complicated, as he was already used to deal with the enemy alone, but now he got people on his back to support him!

"Alright, before destroying the Portal, we have to hold the line! Barton, you occupy a high place, you will become our eyes as to know the enemy's position and observe the tide of the battle! Stark, you must be our perimeter line. Make sure that no enemy left within three miles radius of the Portal! Thor, call your thunder. We need it to cull the new enemy coming out of the Portal while Dio was guarding the battlefront! Natasha, you and I will make sure the Portal was destroyed! And Hulk, smash!" Steve said confidently to everyone.

After hearing the word, he likes the most, the Hulk immediately jumped to the nearby enemy and started smashing them down!"I almost thought that a biomechanical creature like you doesn't feel any fear! But surely, I have made a mistake!" Dio said as he noticed that the Chitauri was running away from his position. He has already killed numerous amounts of an enemy that he already lost count!

"Well, since you don't want to attack me again, I will chase you!" Dio said as he slammed the [Reaper's Gaze] to the ground and took out two temporary stand cards that he had.

"Go, my evil squadron! Tear the enemy apart!" Dio said as he activated two one-time-use [Bad Company] Cards!

The Bad Company was a stand that produced a huge amount of Hamon Energy soldiers that also used Tanks, Helicopter, and artilleries!

With their abilities, Fire at once activated, the Chitauri wouldn't be able to react!

But this was only the beginning!

Dio also pulled out a silver card and quickly charged it with his Hamon Energy!

"Come forth, my loyal white knight! Protect those two from the enemy while they are doing their mission!" Dio said as he activated the [Silver Chariot] Stand from its one-time use card!

The [Silver Chariot] quickly followed Natasha and Steve while clearing their path so that no enemy would be able to harm them!

Unfortunately for the enemy, they couldn't see the Stand! So, all of them were confused as they didn't see anything until it was too late!

Now, the only thing that left was the source! Dio looked up into the Portal in the sky and noticed that Thor was currently summoning his thunder and lightning to kill the enemy that entered the earth through the Portal!

But Dio knew that Thor wouldn't be able to keep summoning his thunder for a long time.. After a while, Thor, who was a god, would feel exhausted too!

262 Slaughter God

At the same time, Dio pulled his last one-time use card. It was a stand that he felt reluctant to use the most, not because it was a one-time use card, but more to the fact that if this Stand was out of control, the entire New York would be dead!

It was the [Green Day] card! Dio activated the card, and a green slug with a human body appeared. Dio then called Thor. "Thor, do me a favor and throw this thing to the edge of the portal!" Dio said as he talked to Thor.

"What is this thing?" Thor asked as he felt a little bit curious after seeing the {Green Day] from up close! Dio wasn't surprised that Thor could see the [Green Day] Stand because Dio knew that a one-time use Stand had more Hamon energy in them, and therefore, being with heightened mental awareness could see the Stand!

"This is one of my abilities, no time to explain now! I need you to throw this thing to the edge of the Portal, just don't throw it inside the Portal!" Dio said as he explained the clause to Thor.

After seeing that Dio was serious, Thor immediately grabbed the [Green Day] and flew as high as possible!

Thor gritted his teeth as the further up he flew, the denser the enemy was! "Is this height good enough?" Thor asked Dio through the mind link.

"Yes, that is close enough! Thor heeds my words! Once I activate the abilities of that thing that you are holding, you can't descend! Stay in your position or fly around horizontally, but never go down even if it's just a little!" Dio said solemnly.

"Okay, just be quick! I couldn't hold on any longer; the enemy was too much around here!" Thor said nervously.

"Relax, they would soon turn to piles of useless scrap!" Dio said casually. "[Green Day]! Activate!" Dio shouted, and at once, a green smoke came out of [Green Day]'s head, infecting everything near him with the mold infestation!

Of course, because Thor was basically holding on to the [Green Day, he was the first one to be infected but fortunately, he recalled Dio warning him about not to go down and so, even after he felt something was wrong, he didn't go down at all.

Thor quickly realized why Dio said that he couldn't go down at all! A Chitauri soldier flew towards Thor and started shooting, but Thor dodged left and right, the Chitauri soldier started to go down Thor, but once the soldier was going down, mould started to cover their body!

Just between a second or two, the soldier was dead, leaving only the mechanical parts of its body behind!

Thor immediately understood that once he started to go down, he would be dead, consumed by the mould like the Chitauri soldier earlier!

He immediately felt excited as he knew that the thing on his hands was releasing some kind of gasses that were extremely lethal!

Thor began to move around in the air so that the gasses spread more. Sure enough, Thor causes hundreds of Chitauri to fall to their death, becoming the nutrition to the mould!

But once a Leviathan started to go down, it was also quickly eaten by the mould! Leaving only its mechanical part and nothing more!

The mould from the Leviathan began to spread, and the air zone beneath the Portal immediately became a dead zone!

As anything that passed through the Portal and started to descend towards earth quickly fell and turned into scrap metal!

Thor now felt the overwhelming power of [Green Day, that thing's power was a weapon of mass murder!

He no longer wondered why Dio didn't release this power from the beginning, as it could affect a huge space and create a dead zone!

If he wasn't cautious, the whole city would fall under this thing's power! Now, Thor felt nervous as he worried that Dio couldn't stop this thing's power.

If that was the case, then this place would become a lot worse than the alien's invasion! Furthermore, he didn't want to die either!

"Dio, tell me! Are you sure you can control this thing's ability? I feel like a cornered rat right now! if this thing couldn't be contained, I and the whole world would be dead!" Thor asked worriedly to Dio through the mind link. Dio immediately notices that Thor feared [Green Day]'s ability!

"Don't worry. I will try best not to cause a disaster!" Dio said casually while giggling to himself as he didn't even bother to reassure Thor at all!

Thor began to nervously fly around again, but this time, it was clear that Thor was scared! There was no more excitement in Thor's movement, but more like a person who was concentrating and focused on only one task!

In Thor's mind, he knew that he would probably be much better if he stuck to use his thunder to fry the enemy!

It was so much better and relaxed compared to holding onto this weapon of mass destruction!

Compared to Thor, who was nervously flying around with the [Green Day] in its end, Dio was completely satisfied and relaxed!

From the looks of things, the [Green Day] was far more powerful than he firstly expected! The Chitaurian was a semi-mechanical race, and so [Green Day]'s effect was quickly destroying their organic stuff!

Dio also didn't feel any worry that [Green Day] would go out of control as it will only be summoned for 30 minutes.. After that, the [Green Day] would disappear along with its entire mould!

263 Alien Monsters

When Thor and Dio succesfully culled the amount of enemy that came out of the portal, Tony and the other could have more room to breathe as the pressure on stopping the enemy was reduced. Dio and Thor's conversation was heard by the others and therefore, everyone knew that they shouldn't get close to Thor and that the one who has done everything was none other than Dio!

But, Thor, Steve, Natasha, and The Hulk could see the little toy soldier and the Silver Knight on the battlefield, dealing with the enemy too. Everyone began to wonder, what was the bottom of Dio's power?

"isn't Dio's power called Hamon Energy? So, what is that little Toy Soldier and the Silver Knight really is?" Natasha asked in wonder.

"The Silver Knight has made our job so much easier, but we should do our job better because of it!" Steve said as he became more determined to clear his objective. Previously, Steve was injured by a bomb that the alien has thrown towards him while saving the civilian that was trapped on the crumbling building, but he didn't seem to mind his injuries at all!

"Oh, I am sorry, did I interrupt something? But first, can you return my belongings, lady?" Loki said as he suddenly appeared before Steve and Natasha. Steve immediately prepared himself for battle but he wasn't fast enough! The [Silver Chariot] immediately rushed forward and immediately stabbed Loki with his sword!

Silver Chariot was undoubtedly one of the fastest Stand, but as its sword passed through Loki, it showed a little bit of surprised look under its iron helmet! At the same time, Steve shouted 'Look out!' as he pushed Natasha aside. Loki appeared behind Natasha, luckily Steve managed to save Natasha as Loki was about to stab her!

Natasha realized the situation and immediately rushed towards Loki to stab him with the sceptre, but she failed! She stabbed another Loki's afterimage and the real Loki has once again hidden himself somewhere near.

Suddenly, more than 20 of Loki's afterimages appeared, telling Natasha and Steve to give up the mission and give him back the sceptre! Steve and Natasha tried to attack Loki's afterimages, but all their attacks passed through! They looked around to see which one the real Loki was but, it seemed that the real Loki was waiting for them to do just that! He immediately appeared behind Steve and immediately took Steve's shield and threw it inside a nearby building!

"Now I change my mind! I will kill both of you and take back my sceptre!" Loki said as he smirked confidently, he became confident as the threat was reduced by half! Loki immediately blended in with his afterimages once again, continuing the goose chase with Steve and Natasha.

But Steve and Natasha were interrupted by the sound of metal being dropped behind them, they immediately looked at the source of that weird sound and saw that the Silver Knight from before was stripping off its armour! After [Silver Chariot] had stripped off all his armour, it created the same amount of afterimage as Loki!

[Silver Chariot]'s afterimage was different from Loki's afterimage! While Loki's was created by magic, and therefore solely created to deceive the enemy, [Silver Chariot]'s after image was simply made by his absurd speed, making every afterimage as real as it ever could be!

[Silver Chariot] immediately stabbed every single one of Loki's after image at the same time, Loki's after image immediately disappeared while the real Loki was stabbed by the [Silver Chariot]! Loki let out a muffled noise as he didn't expect this weird thing to have such ability!

Adding to his misfortune, Hulk immediately jumped from the top of the building and immediately grabbed Loki!

"I am fed up of you mortals! I am a god! Unhand me right now, you pathetic creature!" Loki said commandingly. He was fed up of losing every scheme that he had planned beforehand!

But before he could speak another word, Hulk slammed him to the ground repeatedly in his fit of rage! It was violent as Loki was slammed against the wall repeatedly like a ragdoll!

"Huh, puny god!" Hulk said as he was done with Loki. Steve and Natasha look at the scene that played in front of their eyes in amazement, they never thought that it would end like this for Loki!

"That was a little bit cruel, but I don't want to complain!" Natasha said as she applauded Hulk from where she was standing.

"Remind me to never make Banner angry, I don't want to be thrown around like a piece of dirty rag!" Steve said as he took back his shield from inside the building that Loki threw it to earlier.

Loki wasn't dead, but he surely felt Hulk's attack just now, stunning him on the little crater that Hulk has made for him.

This moment would be remembered forever by Loki and caused him PTSD, making him afraid to come close to Hulk ever again.

"Let's go, we need to close the portal now!" Steve said to Natasha as Loki was no longer stopping their path.

At the same time, Nick was having his own battle inside the Helicarier.

"Are you out of your mind? No! I will never approve using a Nuclear Missile to kill the alien! I have sent my team to deal with the situation, they will definitely save New York from the alien!" Nick said annoyedly to the monitor in front of him. The International Security Council has demanded the use of Nuclear Weapon to put the war to an end!

264 From Behind

"Unless my team told me that they have failed, I will not let you use the Nuclear weapon to bomb New York with! There are still innocent civilians trapped out there!" Nick said coldly. He then turned off the communication and started to curse the stupidity that the members of International Security Council demanded him to do!

Nick than immediately switched the screen to the satellite monitor, watching the Avenger from afar! Although he knew that he couldn't help the Avengers on their fight, he would never allow anyone to interrupt and change the course of their fight!

But at the same moment, a fighter jet equipped with Nuclear Missiles was preparing to take off unauthorizedly. The group of people in the International Security Council has lifted Nick Fury's command without him knowing and commanded for the launch of the Nuclear Fighter jet!

The Agent on deck quickly notified Nick about the Jet's unauthorized take off and Nick immediately ran off toward the deck and immediately blew the wings of the Fighter Jet with rocket launcher, destroying the Jet's chance to take off! But he was too late to destroy another Jet that was also taking off!

Nick Fury was furious! The International Security Council was too adamant on levelling New York to the ground while the Avenger was looking good on their mission! But because Dio has interfered with the current timeline, he created a massive Butterfly effect!

"Need help, Director?" Coulson said as he held the Energy Gun in his hands. He immediately aimed the gun at the fighter jet and immediately shot it down in the sky!

"Coulson! You are still alive? Director, I need an explanation for this!" Agent Hill said as she saw Coulson shooting at the jet!

"I will talk about this later! Now, I need to take control of the Deck immediately! This place is off limit for every agent on this Helicarier! If anyone walks to this deck without authorization, I will shoot them down personally!" Nick said coldly!

"Sir, yes sir!" Agent Hill said as she immediately got every agent out of the deck and sealed the runway. Although she had so many questions for Nick Fury, but she knew this was not the time for that!

"Coulson! Why did you run out of your room! Didn't I order you to stay put!" Nick asked the excited Coulson annoyedly.

"I was bored of waiting on those boring rooms! I need to get back on the field, after all, my mission is still incomplete!" Coulson said excitedly.

Nick Fury sighed as he knew that it would be impossible to keep Coulson hidden in the future, and therefore he was done hiding him!

"If that was the case then I hereby cancelled your approved vacation! Now, your task is to make sure no one comes close to this deck without my order!" Nick said annoyedly.

"Wait a minute, Director! Did you say a vacation?" Coulson said with a surprise look on his face.

"Yeah, I originally planned for you to take a vacation, after all, I need you to stay hidden from the Avengers! Now, I need an excuse about your resurrection and because you already exposed yourself, you will no longer need this vacation!" Nick said with a smirk on his face!

"If I go back inside the room, can I quietly take those vacation, Director?" Coulson asked innocently.

"Off course no! God, hell no!" Nick Fury said dismissively as he walked back inside the control room with a pleasant look on his face.

Right now, Nick's thought was filled on how to settle the score with the dumb idiots inside International Security Council!The Avengers who were in the middle of a fierce battle against the Chitauri Army didn't know that they were almost backstabbed by the people they protected! They were desperately protecting the earth from an alien invasion, but those people behind their desks easily concluded that they were needing a weapon of mass destruction to absolve the alien without asking them first!

Anyway, the Avenger could escape the Nuclear strike no problem, but the City with every innocent person in it would become a victim of their incompetence! This was all too real, the leader could only order around without thinking of the consequences of their action!

They always told everyone who died that they were a sacrifice that they must make, but if the leader's family was on the scene, they would do everything in their power to save them! What a joke!

At the same time, the Chitauri Army has noticed that they couldn't forcibly enter the earth again! Instead, they started to gather on the other side of the portal and started firing on the earth from there!

Meanwhile, Thor was still pressured by the [Green Day] that he was holding. Because of the [Green Day]'s Effect in place, Thor couldn't go down! The Chitauri army noticed Thor's weird flying pattern and immediately followed suit! They began to flies in horizontal pattern while testing to go down little by little to test their own safety!

One Chitauri soldiers finally succesfully avoided [Green Day]'s ability and safely arrived at the ground!

265 Perfect Combination

When the first Chitauri Soldier successfully reached the ground without any trouble, the rest of the army behind quickly followed suit!

Dio, who was witnessing everything, sighed as finally [Green Day] became useless! He couldn't use [Green Day] if enemies were already on the ground due to the risk that the [Green Day]'s ability would spread uncontrollably!

Dio thought that he could use [Green Day] ability as many times as possible, but it seemed that the Chitauri Army was intelligent too!

"Dio! The Chitauri have found a way to breakthrough! What should we do now?" Thor said through the Snail mind link.

"Natasha, how is the situation on your side? Are you closing the portal yet?" Dio asked as he ignored Thor's question for now.

"Steve and I have found the portal unit! Loki's sceptre indeed could penetrate the portal's shield, but the energy produced by the cube was too strong! I need time to destroy it!" Natasha answered immediately!

"How long will it take for you to do that? be precise!" Dio said as his tone became serious.

"1 minute! Give me 1 minute!" Natasha said hurriedly.

"Thor! Wait for my signal; throw that thing that you are holding down and start flying upward! Don't hesitate!" Dio said to Thor as he answered Thor's previous question.

After finding a way to deal with the strange ability from Thor, the Chitauri Army ignored his presence completely.

They didn't know that Dio has already deactivated [Green Day]'s ability for now! But as soon as Dio was about to use his power, Tony's voice interrupted everyone!

"Don't close it just yet!" Tony said nervously.

"Stark! The enemy has infiltrated our lines of defence! They would swarm us again soon!" Barton said annoyedly.

"Yes, but Jarvis detected a Nuclear Missile heading our way! We need a place to dump that thing too, and the portal seems like a good choice right now!" Stark said solemnly.

"What!" everyone except Dio and Thor said simultaneously in a shocked tone.

"So, I have a plan! We hold the enemy like we already did for several more minutes, and when the Nuclear Missile was already in sight, I will guide it towards the portal. As soon as the missiles enter the portal, we can close it!" Tony said solemnly. "We can't let the civilians trapped here died by human's error like this! what do you say, guys?" Tony asked casually.

"Have you thought that you might die by doing that?" Natasha asked worriedly.

"Well, I am the most suitable person to do this! I can fly and, I have a suit that could predict the missiles movement and a guiding path to direct it to the portal! Meaning, I am the only one who was capable of doing this!" Tony said sarcastically.

"Tony is right! We have our own responsibilities! We must hold on and wait for the Nuclear Missile to get here first! Maybe it's dangerous, but no one else can do this besides us! After all, it was Tony's plan. We should respect his choices!" Steve said commandingly.

"Yeah, it's okay! After all, I am also a part-time war doctor, aren't I? if you are still breathing, I would be able to save you!" Dio said indifferently.

Dio's word reassured Natasha, Tony, and the others. Tony and Natasha, especially since they've already seen Dio's healing capabilities firsthand!

As for the others, they've already trusted Dio enough that they wouldn't be surprised at other strange abilities that Dio had in his sleeves!

"Okay, now. Thor! After a count of 3, you can come back to the ground!" Dio said as the [Green Day] was still absorbing the mould that it released earlier.

After the count of three, [Green Day] was already done absorbing all the mould that it has released, and Thor immediately came down to the ground. When he saw Dio, Thor was a little bit surprised as he saw that Dio was covered with a white icy armour from head to toe!

Dio has used the [White Album] once again! "Now, my preparation is done! Come forth [Horus]!" Dio said as he summoned another stand! A terrifying skeletal bird appeared behind Dio, and the temperature around him immediately became even colder.

Stand Name: Horus

Description: A stand named after the Egyptian's Sky God!

Type: Long Range Stand

Ability: Cryokinesis

Ability Description: Horus grants its user the power to generate and control ice at a rapid rate!

Attribute:

Destructive Power: B

Speed: B

Range: D

Sustainability: C

Precision: E

Evaluation: JoJo's version of Ice Moulding Magic was used by Gray Fullbuster from Fairy Tail.A layer of frost appeared around Dio, freezing anything that it touched. In the first quarter of the battle, he was a berserker that readily sliced and diced the enemy at close range.

Now, Dio planned to completely use the Ice and Cold Stand to dominate the enemy from afar!

Furthermore, Dio also summoned the [Hanged Man] to complete his set of distance overkill! After all, the [Hanged Man] could use the ice shards that Dio was about to throw for its own ride!

266 Ice And Thunder

Dio immediately used the Hamon Technique [Life Magnetism Overdrive] to increase [Horus]'s power! There was no need to be invisible right now. Power was more important!

"Ice Blade summons!" Dio said to [Horus] coldly. Hundreds of ice shards immediately appeared around Dio, and as soon as Dio waved his hands, hundreds of ice shards were immediately shot at the Chitauri Army at an unbelievable speed!

Thor, who was observing the battlefield, was shocked! Dio's power was too close to that of a god! The Chitauri Army that was freely coming out from the portal was immediately overwhelmed with the number of ice shards that were being shot at them!

Because of the speed from the empowered [Horus, the Chitauri Army didn't have any time to dodge!

Dio made another batch of Ice Shards and created an Ice wall on his side to prevent the enemy from coming close to attack!

The ice wall was so big that so many Chitauri Army had crashed into it from the sudden appearance of the 200-meter-tall Ice Wall!

"Ice Mirror, Crystal!" Dio said to [Horus, and suddenly the 200-meter-tall Ice Wall shattered, and countless ice crystals floated from the ice wall's previous location!

The [Hanged Man] immediately jumped from Dio's right eye to the countless Ice Crystals and started killing the Chitauri Soldiers that was unfortunate enough to have their image reflected in the Ice Crystal!

This was possible because Dio has been saving his Hamon Energy from the start of the battle. And thus he could achieve such a feat in the last moment like this!

His ice combo was impenetrable. The [White Album] was his Close Range defense as it was an armour and also had the capabilities to reach Absolute Zero in a short distance, meanwhile [Horus] for attacking the enemy from a medium-range and created any ice crystal for [Hanged Man] to move and kill its enemy!

Thor now was feeling a little bit ashamed, as he was the Son of Odin and the God of Thunder! How come he let a mortal did so much while all he did was sit back and relax!

No longer able to hold his own morale, Thor immediately held the Mjolnir high up in the air and immediately called forth the thunder and lightning!

Thor began to roar and send an ungodly amount of electric charges into the air. Because of his proximity, Thor's electric charges resonated with Dio's ice crystal in the air! As Ice was a great conductor for electricity, the thunder grew wild and electrified so many Chitauri Soldiers at once!

This combination of Ice and Thunder immediately fried a few waves of Chitauri Army in no time! Everyone else who saw what was happening was shocked by their bone as they never imagined this much raw power ever existed!

The Hulk, however, showed fear again as the memory from while he was frozen by Dio's ability resurfaced! The Hulk immediately turned around and started killing the enemy far from Dio's position!

Now, the Chitauri Army has changed tactics! They immediately sent out the Leviathan once again as it could withstand the Ice and Thunder combination from Dio and Thor!

"Now, are you coming with me?" Dio asked Thor as Dio pulled out the [Reaper's Gaze] to attack the enemy himself this time!

"Of course! Let's go!" Thor said as he pulled Dio up to the air and threw him towards the nearest Leviathan.

Dio immediately communicated with the [Anubis] inside the [Reaper's Gaze]. Thus he knew that [Reaper's Gaze] has accumulated so many energies from the previous battle, and this was the right time to release it!

The blade from the scythe began to glow red, and it started to change its appearance once more! If it was a large scythe before that looked like a farmer extra-large scythe, now the handle began to grow, and the scythe became more like a war scythe!

Dio immediately swung the scythe down as he fell towards the Leviathan, and an energy wave immediately appeared from the scythe and cut the Leviathan in two, and it fell to the ground without any more movement!

Compared with Dio's clean kill, Thor took a lot more effort to bring down one of the Leviathans. He slammed the Leviathan's Armour, and once it broke, he summoned the thunder to attack the Leviathan's flesh directly! After this kind of show, Thor was already at his limit, physically and mentally!

Other heroes, excluding Dio, were all in the same condition. They all were already fatigued as the enemy kept popping out without end.

For Dio himself, this was because he has already increased his Max Hamon Energy, and he was saving his power at the beginning of the battle.

If he went all out from the beginning, he might be more fatigued than the other heroes by now!

"Natasha! Get ready to close it! I am on my way with the Nuclear Missiles!" Tony finally said from the snail mind link.

"Okay! I'll get ready!" Natasha said as she finally pushed the sceptre inside the energy shield of the portal!

Dio saw Tony coming from afar with the Missile on his back. After Tony reached a certain distance from the portal, Dio saw that Tony activated all his thruster and changed the Missiles' trajectory towards the portal!

To help Tony reach the portal without being gunned down by the enemy, Thor immediately flew close and shot lightning towards the enemy that flew toward Tony!

Everyone else was looking at Tony's figure nervously, including Nick Fury, who was observing the fight from the Helicarier.

Although he had successfully avoided the Missiles Launch from the Helicarier, the International Security Council has launched the missiles from elsewhere!

267 Stolen

The Chitauri Army noticed that Natasha was trying to close the portal, and many of them immediately flew hurriedly toward Natasha! Dio looked at Tony's position and noticed that he almost reached the portal, so Dio thought that there was no need for him to save any more Hamon Energy!

He activated his attacking Stand, and with the Hulk in tow, Dio did everything he could to prevent the Chitauri from reaching Natasha!

Meanwhile, Thor was flying with Tony to escort him safely to the portal. After all, he couldn't let the Chitauri attack the missiles and set off the explosion accidentally!

Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen, and the Chitauri Army didn't detect any danger that Tony was holding!

This fact gave Tony the chance to rush towards the portal as soon as he could! Tony released the Nuclear Missiles right towards the Chitauri Mothership, and it exploded brilliantly in the outer space!

As soon as the Mothership was destroyed, all remaining Chitauri and Leviathan left on the earth immediately fell from the sky and died.

They were semi-organic creatures, meaning that they have someone or something that controlled them. Once the Mothership was destroyed, whatever it was that controlled them was also dead with it!

"Close the portal!" Steve said to Natasha hurriedly.

"No, wait! He may run out of energy already!" Dio said as he knew that Tony almost fell to his death in the Avenger Movie.

Everyone obeyed Dio's word as they too wanted Tony to come back alive. A few more seconds passed, and as they were starting to think that Tony has died with the explosion, a familiar figure fell out of the portal.

"It's Tony! Close the portal quickly!" Dio said hurriedly.

Natasha no longer hesitated and immediately rammed the sceptre into the Cube and knocked it off the machine that opened the portal!

The portal was immediately closed as it lost its primary energy source! The beam of lights that signaled the war on earth finally faded as the war was finally over!

But the celebration was short-lived. Tony was free-falling from the sky while Hulk and Thor were trying to save him; meanwhile, the machine that created the portal exploded!

Luckily Steve was near Natasha, so he was able to block the explosion with his Vibranium Shield, but unfortunately, they both were pushed out of the 10-story building!

Barton quickly jumped off from the building that he was currently in and shot an arrow to the SHIELD's building and immediately glided to save Natasha and Steve, but unfortunately, he could only reach Steve in time!

"Natasha!" Barton shouted as he failed to reach her in time.

At this critical moment, Dio switched the [World] with [Hermit Purple] and immediately tied Natasha to the wall with it! It seemed that everyone was safe. But, unfortunately for them, another figure immediately rushed towards the sceptre that was blown off earlier, and after that, he immediately jumped forward and quickly rushed towards the Cube that was lying around the pathway in front of SHIELD's base.

Dio was visibly annoyed at the man's critical timing. So, he immediately used [Horus] to shoot several Ice Shards to knock the man or possibly kill him if that was possible.

But the man easily fended off the flying ice shards with the Loki Sceptre in his hands. Dio immediately used [Hermit Purple] to take the Cube on the pathway as he didn't want that thing to also fall into the Hydra's hand!

Once doing that, Dio also created an Ice Wall to block the man's way towards the Cube with [Horus, but the man easily destroyed the Ice Wall with his Biomechanical arm!

Dio was annoyed beyond belief! He couldn't think of anything to capture the man now as [Hermit Purple]'s vine would be too weak against this man!

But thankfully, Dio's vine power reached the Cube before the man did. So, the man immediately escaped, with Loki's sceptre in his hands.

Dio immediately made a move to chase after the guy, but another thing interrupted him from doing so!

"Dio! Tony isn't breathing!" Thor said through the mind link.

Dio groaned and immediately pulled Natasha up and rushed towards Tony to save his life!

"Let me check him out of the way!" Dio said as he immediately checked Tony's vital.

Dio immediately relaxed as he felt Tony still had a pulse and that the snail wasn't dead just yet! Tony was just in suspended animation, meaning that the guy was forcing himself too hard, and that made him collapse! Furthermore, Dio noticed that the light from Tony's Arc Reactor was also dim, meaning that the Ark Reactor had already exhausted its energy!

"Thor, tap Tony's chest a little bit with your Mjolnir, it should wake him up!" Dio said casually.

"Are you sure I can do this?" Thor asked confusedly.

"Hurry up, just do it! trust me on this one!" Dio said hurriedly to make Thor do it without further questioning.

Dio was smart. At least he felt like if Thor immediately tapped Tony's Arc Reactor with Mjolnir a little bit, electricity would spark from Mjolnir to Tony's Ark Reactor.. After a while, Tony opened his eyes and hurriedly took a deep breath!

268 A Meal

"What happened? No one's going to kiss me better?" Tony asked sarcastically.

Dio and the other immediately sighed in relief, and since Tony was still as sarcastic as ever, everyone knew that nothing was wrong with him!

Natasha and Barton immediately walked forward, and the Avenger looked at each other in relief as they survived the war against an alien invader!

"We won! Good job guys! I suggest you take a day off tomorrow and rest, but I am starving right now! Did you guys ever eat shawarma? I know a shawarma place that was said to be the tastiest in New York! Want to go get it?" Tony said sarcastically.

"it's not over just yet!" Thor said as he looked at Loki, who was still lying around in the place Hulk smashed him before.

"Oh yeah, there is bad news and good news too that I have to tell you guys. The bad news is that Loki's sceptre has been stolen once again, and the good news is that I successfully recover the Cube!" Dio said indifferently.

Dio had enough for today as he was starving and only want a quiet place to eat and went back home to sleep!

He had to think about Asgard later, as he knew that the main way to Asgard right now was only with Odin's power or the Cube, and he didn't want to rush things just yet!

Barton also saw the person who snatched Loki's sceptre earlier, but he didn't need to say anything as he knew that everyone didn't care about the sceptre now! They will have to search for the sceptre later!

"Director Fury has sent over a chopper for us to ride, for now, let's tie Loki up so that he wouldn't try to escape later!" Natasha said tiredly.

"I hope this time, he doesn't come with another missile!" Dio said sarcastically.

"Yeah, that was a betrayal, that kind of behavior would undoubtedly be punished by death in Asgard!" Thor said coldly.

The other remained silent as they didn't know what happened and why they were being bombed by Nuclear Missile!

But they realized that even if they knew the reason behind the bombing, they wouldn't be the one to tell the others!

But surely, they were worried about Nick's safety as Dio and Thor were angered about the missile situation.When a Quinn Jet landed, the Avenger handed over Loki to them, and Tony immediately got a taxi to the Turkish barbeque where they would have shawarma!

The surprising thing was that even after the alien has attacked the city, a taxi still drove around on the road, trying to look for a customer and the restaurant that Tony brought them to wasn't affected that much either from the Alien attack and still operated as if nothing happened!

After they ordered shawarma, everyone was sitting around the table in silence while eating their shawarma. After 20 minutes or so, Dio couldn't stand the scene any longer!

"Ohh, for crying out loud! Let me cook dinner for you guys! Today, it's on the house!" Dio said as he knew the shawarma tasted like shit! The shop owner let Dio use their kitchen as they couldn't say no to him as they saw what Dio was capable of!

Seeing the ingredient in the kitchen, Dio sighed and decided to fry some meat and made some Turkish barbeque with rice and salad on the side!

Dio swapped [White Album] with [Pearl Jam] and decided stamina recovery for the treatment effect!

It didn't take long for Dio to serve the simple dish that he made, but it would certainly taste amazing, just like the other dishes that he made with [Pearl Jam].

Simply smelling the dish made their mouth watery, and the shawarma that they were holding was soon dropped and forgotten!

"Did you also add the usual recipe?" Natasha asked curiously. Tony was also listening intently as he was also curious about that.

"Yeah, I added a little bit with the effect to relieve some fatigue and enhanced your healing factor a little bit. the side effect would be none as it wouldn't try to heal any major parts of your body!" Dio said casually.

Natasha and Tony nodded their head in excitement as the others were confused about their conversation.

However, even though they didn't understand the conversation, they still could smell the fragrant dish, and so they started eating immediately.

As soon as they tasted the dish, everyone except Tony and Natasha was surprised by the delicious taste that they never tasted before!

Their appetites flared up and soon buried themselves on eating rage! They started to consume the barbeque, rice, and salad without any manner and occasionally gave a thumbs up to Dio's direction!

"This is the true Turkish barbeque! I love it to death!" Tony said as he ate his final spoonful of rice.

The restaurant owner and the chef were speechless as the reaction between their food with Dio's food was far too different, while the ingredients in their kitchen were the same!

The chef immediately ran back to the kitchen and tasted the barbeque that Dio made, but he still found the same flavor that he usually created! He began to wonder whether his customers were actors!

In the meantime, Dio has already made a large portion for all Avenger members. But he never expected they would have this big appetite as everything was gone in a matter of minutes!

The first one to finish his portion was Thor, and he began to look over to the others' plate while also trying to get some for himself!

But unfortunately, for Thor, no one wanted to share! Normally, Tony or Steve would share their food with Thor to show some earth courtesy, but as this food was probably one of the best foods, if not the best that they have ever tasted!

269 Retreat With Your Mouth

Right after finishing their meal, Dio quickly warned them.

"Okay, now that you have finished eating everything, you will feel your whole body gradually become active again, and maybe an itch in a couple of places, but don't worry. It was all the treatment from the food that I cooked! It's all to relieve your fatigue and heal your wounds." Dio said casually as he knew some of them would make a big deal out of it if Dio never told them what was happening.

They all nodded, and Steve was surprised as soon as Dio finished speaking, the wound on his shoulder began to itch, and as he looked at it, the wound was starting to heal at a speed that was visible to the human's eye!

Not too long after that, the wound disappeared, and Steve's shoulder returned to how it was before as if there wasn't any wound there in the first place!

"This is unbelievable!" Steve said in awe, while the other also felt the same and started fussing about their own injuries, only Natasha and Tony that were enjoying the treatment in peace.

But as soon as the relieving fatigue side effect occurred, all of them couldn't stay silent as they felt that their body was like being massaged by a top-level professional masseur!

Natasha and the other Avenger members started to moan in delight as their body was being treated from top to bottom.

If anyone walked outside the restaurant right now, they might be getting the wrong idea here!

After a few minutes passed, the treatment process was over! Natasha and the others lied on their chair with a satisfied look on their face.

"It's really amazing! Now I am ready to take care of another wave of Chitauri Army!" Thor said as he flexed his muscle.

Everyone else also felt the same, they were all healed, and their stamina was restored like it never was!

Except for their clothes that were still in tatter, no one would believe that they have just finished a war against the alien army!

"Is this also one of your abilities?" Steve asked curiously. He didn't know Dio as good as the other members, and that applied to The Hulk as well. But the thing that intrigued the Captain was that Dio seemed to have so many abilities that seemed endless! Controlling the ice, shapeshifting weapon, and even an incredible strength!

Even compared to a god-like Thor, Steve could say that Dio was still more terrifying if anyone who became his enemy wouldn't know what to do next! Steve concluded that Dio was unfathomable as well as mysterious!

"Well, I am a part-time doctor, but my actual job is a chef! If you come to my restaurant next time, I will give you a 5% discount!" Dio smiled as he gave Steve his business card. Steve was speechless as he read Dio's Fantasy Restaurant on the card and Dio's phone number for reservation.

After that small bit of exchange, they decided to leave the restaurant as they began to attract too much attention to themselves.

As always, Tony was left to deal with the payment, and they waited outside for the Quinn Jet. Now that they were already done eating, there was still so much more stuff they had to figure out, like the Cube, Loki's sceptre, and Loki himself! Also, there was the Nuclear Missiles issue too!

Dio knew that the leaders of the countries working together with the International Security Council have already started feeling insecure about the existence of the Avenger.

They only used the nuclear missiles as an excuse to end the Alien invasion while they intended for the Avenger to perish along with the alien!

Of course, this was what Dio found out from the movie, but after changing so much stuff, he needed to ask Fury directly for the real reason!

If some people dared to interfere with his life, he didn't mind killing them too! After all, if some politicians died, the world will still work like nothing happened!

A politician was not a necessary cog in this world anyway!At the same time, in the Helicarier, Nick was having an online meeting with the International Security Council.

"You see that my team could defend against the alien invasion with their own strength! They did not only apprehend Loki, the culprit, but also successfully secured the Cube! Judging from the result here, you are the ones that make the wrong decision!" Nick Fury said coldly.

The International Security Council members that participated in the meeting were all silent as they faced against an aggressive Nick Fury! But there was no way they'd admit that they have made a wrong decision!

"That is just a fluke! If there is another situation like this one next time, will you still entrust the world's safety to those freaks? And don't you forget that SHIELD's resources are in our hands! Our decision is already a consent from everyone else, meaning that you don't get a say for that matter! Please learn your position, director! We can revoke your status and replace you with someone else if we want to!" one member of the council spoke to Fury with a warning tone.

After hearing the words that come from the council member, Nick Fury punched the table in anger.

"A fluke? Do you call that a fluke? If it is not because of your shit-stained Nuclear Missiles, they would have completed the task earlier! SHIELD's resources indeed came from you, but don't you forget that this time, the people that protected the Earth was my people. If I ever share this situation online, I don't know how much the public would berate you for your stupid decision, so don't ever talk to me like that ever again!" Fury said furiously!

"Then, you can shove those freaks up your ass and go to hell already!" The Council member from earlier cursed at Fury as he was also angry at Fury's insubordinate action.

"Why don't you worry about yourself first! If these freaks ever know your whereabout, they might pay you a visit! But sadly, they don't care whether you're dead or alive!" Fury said as he cut off the communication..

270 Reunion

"Despite the City was devastated of so many destroyed buildings from the Alien attack, the heroic feat of the Avenger team was a hope to many people that the world still has their guardians!" the news anchor said as they ended their program. The people on the road also chanted the Avenger's name proudly as they felt the rise of the superheroes was all that they need in this dark time.A few days later, the news was still raging on all kinds of information that they got about the Avengers, while almost everyone also talked about them on the street. And somewhere, in the SHIELD's secret base, Nick was also watching the news while having the meetings again with the International Security Council. He knows that this was the final showdown between him and the council regarding the Avenger.

Meanwhile, the council has collected information regarding every member of the Avenger, and thus they knew that some of them had the power to destroy nations, or even earth itself! That was the real reason why they let Fury control the SHIELD as its director instead of banishing him.

"Where are the Avengers right now?" a council member asked Fury.

"They took a vacation. They deserved it after fighting a difficult battle." Fury answered casually.

"The Cube? Where is it now?" the Council member asked again.

"It safe! Returned to its rightful place!" Fury answered monotonously.

"You have no right to make that decision!" The council said as they were getting annoyed with Fury's behaviour.

"Well, that is not my decision either, a god made that decision, I just agreed!" Nick said as he showed them a photo where Thor held the Cube.

"So, you let him take the Cube? What about Loki? Who would bring him to justice? He should be punished heavily for his crime!" The Council member asked beratingly.

"Oh, he would be heavily punished; there is no need for you to question that!" Nick said casually.

"I think you didn't understand the current situation is! With the Avenger returned to society, the people would be in danger, they are all dangerous!" The council member said solemnly.

Nick suddenly laughed as he didn't understand the insecurity that these people felt!

"It is true that they are a dangerous individual, but they are also world-famous! Did you ever know what happened to a government who locked a world-famous person without any actual reason? You will receive constant nagging from protesters and maybe a ploy to coup the current government and such!" Nick said indifferently.

The council member immediately fell silent as they knew that what Fury has just told them was true! In fact, they already knew what would happen if they suddenly put a dangerous status on those people. In addition, their decision to launch a nuclear weapon on that day was also criticized harshly by many countries. The post-war results stated that the launch of the nuclear missile was unnecessary!

This decision was a bitter fruit that they could only choose to swallow. They still wouldn't admit that they were wrong, but as the public and so many people have already agreed that they were wrong, they let the result talk rather than admitting it themselves!When the meeting was over, and the communication was cut off, one member of the council was surprised to see that a man was already standing behind him!

"You are the one who advocated the launch of the nuclear missiles, aren't you?" The man said coldly.

The council member wanted to reach for his gun, but as soon as he heard the voice, he decided not to. "You are from the Avenger, aren't you? I have already read your profile, what do you want?" the council member asked nervously. He remembered this man's voice as he was the one who seemed to be the most terrifying out of all the other Avenger members. He also knew that this guy didn't appreciate any sort of aggressive behaviour, so he ought to stay calm!

"What I want to do depends on what you have to say! Now, the first question! Did you want to get rid of all the Avenger members? Now, I would like an honest answer! Believe it or not, I can detect whether you are lying or not! If I notice that you are lying, I promise you that you will regret ever being born in this world!" Dio said coldly.

The council member gulped his spit down as he was starting to get more nervous after hearing what Dio has asked! For a second, his mind made up a lot of lies that seemed very reasonable and he even wondered about it for a while, but he immediately decided not to as his instinct told him that he would die if he lied!

He immediately told the truth, although he found it difficult!

"At first, we just wanted to prevent the situation from developing even worse than it already was, it may be difficult for you to believe, but we must make a decision for this kind of thing whether it was a responsible decision or not. But, when we saw the video when you guys started fighting against the alien, it's undeniable that we also felt panicked and uneasy!" the Council member said sincerely..

271 Be Fair

As the Council Member told Dio the truth, Dio sighed as it all made sense, and all of it was a matter of perspectives.

It was like the war itself. In order to gain an advantage, they would need to sacrifice something!

It was just that from Dio's point of view, he wasn't a soldier who had to obey someone, and he also didn't have the noble idea to sacrifice everything to gain an advantage, and so the explanation that the council member just told him, still didn't sit well with him!

"Then, the second question! If, by any chance, your family, I mean all your family was in New York at that time, what would you do? Would you still make the same decision?" Dio asked casually.

The council member failed to give his answer to Dio immediately. If this was a tv interview, he wouldn't hesitate to say yes and then used it as an expression for justice!

But now, sitting in front of someone that was hostile and capable of doing so many things, he couldn't lie!

So, after thinking about it time and time again, the council member finally gave his answer.

"if I were the younger version of me, say 30 or 20 years younger, I will be answering with yes immediately! But now, I can't do that! I would probably send a rescue team to save them first before I even consider firing the missile!" the Council member said sincerely. "But of course, that is just my selfish thought! If the situation got too serious and I must make the decision on the spot, I would've done the same thing!" The Council member added as he leaned back to his chair with a loud sigh!

Dio apparently didn't believe the council member just yet as he immediately took a drop of sweat from the council member's face and analyzed it with his Hamon Energy.

With his understanding of the Hamon Energy, Dio knew that he didn't have to lick the sweat from people's face to know whether that person was lying or not!

But after he got his answer, Dio sighed again and immediately walked towards the door.

"Is my decision really wrong at that time?" the Council member asked Dio weakly.

Dio stopped for a while, and suddenly, a chilling wind swept through the council member's body, the council member thought that he would die at that time, but it didn't happen. Dio only made him felt cold!

"I don't know, you might be right at that time, but one thing for sure! Don't mess with me again! Otherwise, next time you wouldn't be so lucky!" Dio said coldly as he started to walk outside of the room.

When the council member opened his eyes, he was still trembling from the cold, but there was no one else in his room!

He quickly opened the window to get rid of cold air and prepared for a hot bath! He couldn't help but wonder whether Dio's word was a threat or a warning.

So, he began to think about how he should face the Avenger in the future!On the other hand, Dio immediately received a call from Nick as soon as he left the council member's house.

"I was surprised that you actually don't kill him! Your acting was too realistic! I guess it should tame the group of International Security Council Member for a while! But I think you will become their next target. I wouldn't be surprised if they amassed a lot of resources to keep tabs on you." Nick Fury said teasingly.

Acting? Did you ever think so? Well, I don't want any reason for them to start chasing after the people I care." Dio said with a bored expression. He didn't want the hassle to explain everything to Fury as it would take a long time and an unnecessary amount of questions from Fury.

As the truth went, if Dio found that the result from his lie detector said otherwise, and he found that the council member was lying, after all, the council member would've already become an ice sculpture!

It was ridiculous that Fury truly believed that he only wanted to scare this council member. Or maybe Fury expected Dio to kill this council member?

After all, he always became a thorn on Fury's side. Maybe Fury really was expecting Dio to kill this guy!

But no matter what the real reason Fury shared the Council information was, the result was enough for now.

A few hours later, Dio hurried back to New York, where Thor, Tony, and the others have waited for him.

Thor was finally able to go home after he got Odin's consent, and they would celebrate for the last time before splitting up to do their own task for a while.

When Dio landed with the Quinn Jet, Tony immediately teased him.

"Hey, I heard that you're troubled by some people. Did you need any help dealing with any of them?" Tony asked teasingly.

"I've already done my best! I already 'visited' the guy, but I don't know whether it would bring a positive change or not! I just hope that nothing bad would happen to the guy as I would become the suspect for it!" Dio said casually.

"Don't worry. I would become the first one to say that you are indeed a criminal!" Tony said while laughing loudly.

Dio only gave Tony a middle finger and then immediately greeted the others.

"By the way, Dio. The state has already issued an order and provided a huge number of subsidies for New York's resident who was affected by the alien attack! Your restaurant is also on the list, and the government would try to restore it to its original state!" Natasha said as he walked over to Dio and handed him a document.

Dio nodded to Natasha and put away the document for now. Dio's restaurant was unfortunately affected by the Alien attack as one leviathan fell on Chinatown directly on top of Dio's restaurant.

Everything that Dio had inside the restaurant was destroyed, but on the contrary, the Porsche and the villa were still intact, and not any harm was caused to those two items!

Dio was visibly irritated as it meant that he lost quite a lot of money from the unnecessary rent and insurance!

272 Inhuman

All preparation for the war that Dio had done all this time was down the drain now! If he knew that things like this would happen, he would've bought the villa instead of renting it and the car too! The insurance money was for nothing as he couldn't use it now!

Dio was speechless. He set aside the insurance problem for now and thought about his restaurant. He was wondering whether to build the new restaurant at the same site or move it to a better place.

After all, the reason he worked at the restaurant was gone. Even though the restaurant would be built with exactly the same model as the old one, it wouldn't feel right anymore!

But Tony disrupted Dio's thought by smacking Dio's head with a document.

"What the hell! Tony!" Dio said a little bit annoyedly.

"Read it, stupid! I will rebuild my stark tower, and I've already bought all plots of land like around here! Pick your choice, and I would give that place as your new restaurant!" Tony said casually.

Dio was annoyed! Tony was acting like some rich little snob right now, but this was not Dio's first time to see Tony acted like this!

Dio also knew that with the kind of money that Tony had, Dio wouldn't be surprised if Tony bought all New York!

There was no wonder that every hero in the comic and the movie wanted to be Tony's friend. They would get the best out of everything as Tony only had the best kind of everything!

But Dio also realized that Tony only do this out of gratitude for the snail that saved his life. This was so Tony, Dio wouldn't be surprised to hear that his actual reason was that he wanted to get close to Dio's restaurant so that he wouldn't have to track a long drive to get to Dio's place for a meal!

So, with that in mind, Dio chose the most open spot and the best place for a restaurant and gave the document back to Tony.

"Now, you could design my place all you want, I will pay you back as soon as I get back my insurance money!" Dio said casually.

"Okay, fine by me," Tony said casually, he has already said that he would give it to Dio for free, but if Dio chose to pay, Tony wouldn't reject that as he knew that Dio was very stubborn.

Dio was a little bit excited about this because Dio knew that land in the center of New York was very expensive, and he could use that fact to raise his restaurant's price a little bit more!

After all, Dio knew that those rich people would do anything to maintain their perfect image! He believed that he would get more money after his restaurant's reopening.

And for his friends, they were back one after another. They were starting from Will, who had a great time on his vacation after Dio bought him a ticket to Hawaii for several days and some pocket money to spend.

Then comes Jessica, who was so thankful for Dio's warning about the war that would take place in New York. She also convinced her parents that they should leave New York for the time being, although she had to persuade them, at least her parents were safe from the alien invasion!

Then Kristine also called that she was thankful for Dio to give her the warning to leave New York, and when she was back, she hoped to go to a club next time Dio wasn't busy.

After the phone call from all of his dear ones, Dio chatted casually with other Avengers until Banner brought the machine that created the portal for the Alien Invasion earlier.

But this time, it was for a different purpose. This time, it was to create a portal for Thor to return to Asgard.

As Banner and Tony prepared the machine, Thor asked Dio once again.

"Are you sure you wouldn't come with me to Asgard? Without the rainbow bridge, I don't know If I would be able to come back to earth." Thor asked solemnly.

Dio was silent for a second as he really wanted to go to Asgard to experience the culture there, and the best thing was to get a Pegasus for his new pet or the best thing yet, earn a bunch of gold for his next gatcha!

But as Thor said it himself, how could he return to earth without the Rainbow Bridge fixed? He couldn't use the Space Gem from the Cube as he saw fit, nor could he ask Odin to use his power to send Dio back to earth!

After all, if by any chance, Odin didn't have a good impression of him, Dio didn't have a place to return there!

"Nah, I think I would pass this time. But remember to bring me some Uru Metal if you ever back to earth!" Dio said while smiling casually to Thor.

"Hey, that metal is the precious treasure of Asgard because of its rarity! Not even I can give it away that easily!" Thor said casually.

Dio was a little bit disappointed but, he knew that Thor didn't mean that he didn't want to give Dio the metal, but Thor was an honest person, and so with that in mind, Dio would have to ask Odin himself to give him one!

"Now, let's meet again when the time gave me the possibility to come back to Earth!" Thor said as he walked toward the shining light produced by the machine with Loki and the Cube in his hands.

Then Thor and Loki disappeared from everyone's sight..

273 Steve vs Bucky

On their way back, Dio was curious to ask Tony a question.

"Tony! What is wrong with Steve? Why would he be so down after Thor and Loki go? Does he have some serious stuff with Thor? Or was he charmed by Loki?" Dio said curiously while also teasing Tony.

"What are you talking about?" Tony asked, annoyedly.

"You know, if the Captain who was regarded as the Hero of the United States of America was somehow like any other man, I don't mind, you know. I don't have any problem with the LGBT group." Dio said casually.

"No, you idiots! How can you jump to that conclusion? Anyway, that's not it! Steve was able to see the person who took Loki's sceptre at the end of the battle, and he knows who it is!" Tony said annoyedly.

Now he thought that maybe he had gotten too lax around Dio that he found Dio's word was already too annoying for him to take.

Dio immediately realized what happened. He almost forgot that the guy would show up eventually! Bucky, the Winter Soldier, should come after the Ultron incident, not now!

But this also showed the fact that the Hydra was still operational somewhere, as Winter Soldier was Hydra's product!

But from the timing of Winter Soldier's appearance, Dio concluded that there must be a Hydra Agent inside the SHIELD's Helicarier!

But when he thought for the time that Tony learned the truth that his parent was killed by none other than Bucky himself, he was excited to see the fight that would happen between Tony, Steve, and Bucky!

Dio couldn't help but laugh at the exciting battle that will happen later!

As he felt malice from his side, Tony shuddered and took a step away from Dio subconsciously.When Dio returned to his villa, he was surprised that a familiar figure has already waited for him.

"Kristine?" Dio said curiously.

"Dio!" Kristine said excitedly while running towards Dio to give him a hug.

"I haven't seen you for a while. What brings you here?" Dio asked casually.

Kristine immediately flustered and answered shyly.

"I was just from my friend's place, and I think I must come over and thank you in person for saving me and my family's life! When I saw what happened to New York from England, I was horrified! And, I want to check on you too." She said quickly. Dio immediately kissed her to silence her for a moment as he couldn't hear her clearly.

"Did that calm you down?" Dio said with a smile as he parted his lips from Kristin's.

Kristine's face was red as she was embarrassed from her little mumble earlier, but this time she was a little bit confident after she knew that Dio also had an interest in her as a woman.

"No, you make my heart beat faster by that kiss! You have to analyze what is happening to my heart now!" Kristine said as she smiled at Dio.

"Aw, shoot! I didn't think I have ever received the lesson about that from you before, care to teach me now?" Dio flirted.

"Of course, it was never too late to learn!" Kristine said as Dio invited her to his villa.

A few hours later, they finished their study session and lying exhausted in bed. Dio was currently listening to Kristine's story as she feared her wits after knowing what happened in New York.

"Dio, how did you got the information that Alien would attack New York in advance like that? You have to be more than a simple restaurant owner!" Kristine said curiously.

Looking at Kristine's bright eyes, Dio wanted to say his identity immediately as he knew how curiosity could become a problem.

"Well, you are right! As a matter of fact, I am a restaurant owner simply for my daily life identity; the truth is …" Dio was immediately interrupted by a kiss from Kristine.

"It's okay. You don't have to go on. I know that people who have a secret identity mean that they want to protect people that they were close with, so I realize that it could become a problem for you later if you told me now. but as you want to be honest with me is already enough to satisfy my curiosity!" Kristine said as she parted her lips from Dio's.

Dio was surprised to hear those endearing words from Kristine, so he smiled warmly at Kristine.

"By the way, how about the hospital that you work for? did it survive the invasion?" Dio asked as he returned the topic to Kristine.

"Oh yeah, before I came back to New York, I have called Stephen about his condition and the hospital. Fortunately, he was okay and that the hospital was fine too! When the invasion happened, he was in the middle of a surgery, but I am glad that nothing bad happened to him or the people inside the hospital." Kristine said sincerely.

Dio knew that Kristine was a very loyal friend. When she was about to leave New York with her family, she also persuaded Stephen to come along, but of course, Stephen only took her as a joke.

But Dio also knew that nothing would happen to Strange, at least not until the car crash that would direct his life to the Ancient One!

274 What Is This

Despite the destruction that New York suffered from the Alien Invasion, only in a matter of months, the city was restored as it was before!

And over time, the Avenger's name became popular as they became the world's first superheroes. Then for the famous, business opportunity came along nicely.

Tony was indeed a truly high-end businessman. He immediately seized the opportunity after seeing his popularity bloomed, using several of his toy companies to create a mirage that the Stark Industries was doing great and because of that, he got more funding for his company that he later used to build more Iron Man suits!

With Pepper's suggestion too, Stark Industries was changing its path from weapon manufacturer into a technological research company.

This was the new probability for Stark Industries to start fresh after the alleged accusation that they were a company that funded the terrorist!

Apart from that, the government was still trying to get Tony's armour for themselves, and of course, it was for the military, and Tony coldly rejected the government's offer to buy the Iron Man suit with an unbelievable amount of money.

Tony himself created several clauses and contract for the rest of the Avenger teams to further increase his profit in the future, he already got Dr. Banner to sign the contract, and he also made one for Thor too!

Tony knew that Thor wasn't interested in Earth's money, but he prepared a contract for him nonetheless!

Tony thought that his plan would be smooth as no member of the Avenger would ever be short on money, but he never expected things would go sideways!

Natasha and Barton refused his offer with a laugh as they thought that Tony was joking. But Tony realized that Natasha and Barton were also an Agent of SHIELD who had to keep their profile hidden as carefully as they could.

So, with that in mind, Tony immediately looked for Steve. He thought that Captain America would totally agree with his idea and signed the contract as Banner did.

And Tony was right! Steve did agree that he also had to build up his image as a superhero, and thus he signed the contract with Tony, but Steve added another clausal to the contract that stated that Steve's share of the money would be donated to those who really needed it.

Instead of mocking Steve like he usually would, this time, Tony was silent for a while and told Steve that he would also create a foundation to help those people in need.

This time Tony was using Steve's idea to make himself look good and generous to build up his own image.

But even though Tony's motive to make the foundation was impure and dishonest, a charity was still a charity! If the money safely reached those in need, it didn't matter what the owner's motive was!

After finished with Steve, Tony immediately turned his attention to Dio that he thought would be less likely to reject his offer.

But, as Tony met with Dio and discussed the contract, Tony was surprised after hearing that Dio would also reject his offer with a reason that Dio didn't want to expose his identity and became famous like Tony.

This was also the reason why he asked SHIELD to delete all footages of him that were related to the Alien Invasion!

So, the people would know about the existence of Natasha Romanoff – the Black Widow, Clint Barton – the Hawkeye, Anthony Stark – the Iron Man, Steve Rogers – the Captain America, Bruce Banner – the Hulk, and Thor Odinson, but nobody knew who was the one holding the red scythe!

Because Dio was in a fierce battle, only a few people in the entire New York has actually seen his face while he was in a battle, but they also didn't know Dio's identity!

For this reason, the people created their own version of persona that was completely fantasy for Dio and gave him a nickname, the Grim Reaper!

Just hearing the name, people knew that Dio would mercilessly kill his opponent and would always succeed in doing so!

That was all because of the home video that the people of New York successfully captured while Dio was fighting against the Alien. They shared it on the internet to prove that the Grim Reaper indeed existed!

Some people still weren't convinced and call the people that shared the video to be a liar and that they were sharing a hoax!

Some people even told the internet that the one holding the scythe was Thor himself, as they thought Mjolnir might be able to shift its shape as Thor see fit!

But one thing for sure, Dio's popularity wasn't losing to Tony or Thor. It may be because of his mysteriousness, or it may be because of his exaggerated power!

But people wouldn't stop discussing the man with the red scythe and his possible ability.

Some speculation on the internet about Dio was completely hilarious, as some said that the Red Scythe wielder was none other than Thor.

They thought that Thor was secretly also a God of Death and that he would reap the soul out of people.

Some even said that the Red Scythe wielder was a woman with a very beautiful face and figure that would make any man fall in love with her!

In short, people continued speculating about the Red Scythe wielder's identity until they found the real identity of the wielder, and some people even did something completely hilarious. They created a new religion that worshipped Dio as their new god!

Dio only shook his head in annoyance as he couldn't believe people would do something that extreme!

So, with this kind of information on his head, he must reject Tony's offer although Dio knew that the offer was very tempting!

But Tony kept getting on Dio's nerve. He has already said that he didn't want to join in any team, but Tony kept mentioning the 'Red Scythe' on his interview, claiming that the 'Red Scythe' indeed existed and that he was a shy person and didn't want to make his identity known to the public!

Dio knew that Tony didn't leak Dio's personal information, but it was still annoying to know that people would keep guessing and create many other names that sounded so much like a bad joke!

275 New Restaurant And Shelters

The Original Stark Building has been converted into the Avenger's Building. Although the construction wasn't completed yet, Dio's restaurant was the first building to be completed! The restaurant that Tony has made was big, at 1.000 m2.

Dio knew that this much space was completely wasted on him, as he would only accept one table at a time. Dio was shocked as soon as he saw the luxurious restaurant as Tony called him over.

For a billionaire like Tony, everything seemed to be easy!

"Tony! This is too much! Are you sure this is a restaurant for me? Not for some royal family?" Dio said sarcastically.

"No, this is a normal restaurant. What are you talking about? This design isn't even the best!" Tony said casually. "Let's go in, look around, I designed some interior too!" Tony said as he invited Dio inside his new restaurant.

Dio passed a 200 m2 front hall, where the customer would be waiting for their turn to dine inside Dio's Fantasy Restaurant. Inside, Tony designed the place just like what Dio had asked him to do, a single table, close to the kitchen and bathroom.

The bathroom was huge, too, equipped with automatic air recycle and high-tech cleaning equipment. Furthermore, Tony also built a recreational room and a lounge for relaxation.

Tony also stated that the wall was also made with mixed alloy plates and soundproof materials, coupled with full high-tech master control, making it the state-of-the-art restaurant building!

When Tony brought Dio to the lounge, Dio was surprised once more as Tony shouted, 'I love Ironman!' and suddenly the bed moved, and a staircase appeared below it!

"I have registered your voice and mine for the control of the house A.I! simply said 'I Love Ironman!' and this staircase will appear!" Tony said with a big smile on his face.

"Can you change this command? I swear to god, if I find more of your ego inside, I will kill you immediately!" Dio said annoyedly.

"Ow, come on! I work hard for it, at least let me have this one!" Tony said, faking his hard work. He immediately walked down the stairs and called Dio to come over. As soon as Dio walked inside, the lights immediately lighted up! Dio immediately saw that the place was full of food, beverages, various equipment, and an arcade machine!

"You know, I realized that we will need some sort of bunker if we ever have the same Nuclear threat again. This place was supplied by the Ark Reactor, which allows us to survive a decade long nuclear winter! This place also included sustainable food and water, also any game console from Arcade to the earliest console! You can use this place as much as you like, even if there is no emergency! So, what do you think?" Tony asked excitedly.

"Now, this one is really good!" Dio said honestly. He could see that Tony really spent his time to think about designing his restaurant and the corresponding incident that may come! Dio wouldn't dream of ever designing this place on his own! "Oh, where is that door leading to?" Dio asked as he saw a lone door in the corner.

"Oh, that one would lead you straight to Avenger Tower! I also built secret communication in here, if we ever needed it!" Tony said casually.

Dio immediately looked at him in annoyance. Now he realized that this place could be said Tony's own back yard! He could come and go as he pleased anytime!

Although he could understand Tony's purpose by building this elevator, couldn't he at least tell Dio in advance?

While Dio was contemplating on blocking the elevator from this room, Tony shoved a document into his chest.

"Here, I've already calculated the cost of the decoration and design cost. You can make a few changes on places that you think could be better if you are already satisfied with all of this, sign this document, and we are done!" Tony said casually.

Dio immediately opened the document and shocked by how much the cost was!

"Twenty million dollars? Are you kidding me, Stark?" Dio said annoyedly.

"Hey, this was just the material and manpower cost! I didn't even include my designing fee in those bills! If you don't believe me, you could ask anyone that have their own bunker on how much this place cost!" Tony said seriously.

All that Tony just said was the truth! The usual bunker for presidential or any other VVIP personnel would use the same material that Tony used, except that they would use a nuclear-powered power resource, while Tony used clean energy of the Arc Reactor!

Basically, Tony's Arc Reactor was much better for sustaining the bunker than the Nuclear powered one!

There is also the A. I that he integrated into the building; this was the most that he could do on the quality side! If he was ever planning to sell this kind of bunker, the opening price would be at least 100 million dollars!

People with money would start flocking to buy this state-of-the-art bunker from him, especially after experiencing the Alien invasion from earlier!

"Okay, okay! I will sign this document! But I would pay you after you changed the password and after I got the money from my customer!" Dio said annoyedly.. He didn't have that much money right now, but with his restaurant reopened, he would be able to pay Tony for that much cost!

276 Chaotic City

After leaving the new restaurant, Dio felt sad for his pocket and felt empty inside! His money was not enough to pay for his own restaurant, and the worst thing of all, he owed Tony money for a while!

He drove his Porsche towards his villa. Dio was adamant that he wouldn't have to extend the lease he had on the villa for the restaurant already had everything he needed!

He didn't need to spend more money on this stupid villa that he wouldn't even need anymore!The state of New York was not completely functioning right now. Although the government wasn't affected that much, the people from the underworld organization clearly thought that this was the right time to seize the opportunity to loot and assault people as the police department was overwhelmed by so many disputes!

The police have mustered their resources to handle the gang war, assault, and many other criminal activities.

But it seemed to make no difference as the gang war still happened on the alleyway and other conspicuous places in New York!

Along the way, the number of reports from breaking and entering, suspicious activity, even assault was too much, even in broad daylight!

Dio didn't want to take care of this matter, as it was surprisingly tiring. But if he ever crossed path with anyone that would challenge him, he wouldn't think twice to kill them!

Dio suddenly snapped back from his thought as a little girl suddenly appeared in front of his car, and he had to hit the brake hard for the car to stop quickly!

5 or 6 big men full of tattoos showed up as Dio stopped his car with a gun in their hands. Clearly, this was a ruse to mug Dio!

"Get out of the car if you don't want me to shoot your stupid head!" one man said threateningly.

Dio opened his car door and immediately stepped out and started to walk towards the man. He didn't want his car to get damaged while he still had to pay the loan for it, and he was annoyed that they dared to bother him while he was not in a good mood!

"Now, what do you want? Make it quick! I don't have much time for this!" Dio said annoyedly.

"Look at you, acting like a pampered boy! You hit my sister, and now you have the mouth to be arrogant!" The man said threateningly.

Dio immediately looked over to the girl from earlier. He noticed that the girl was in a pitiful state! Her clothes were already tattered, while her body was looking frail from the lack of nutrient.

What a joke! This girl clearly wasn't their sister. Even if she was, there was no way they had the right to ask for anything while their sister was looking like a homeless bum!

Dio started to look around and noticed that someone not too far from Dio's current location saw the situation that Dio was in and called the police!

Dio frowned as he knew that he wouldn't be able to deal with these mobs while having so many spectators.

"Let's change the place! There are a lot of people here!" Dio said as he kept looking around the place.

"Now we are talking! Remember, don't play any tricks on me! Or your head would get it!" The man said confidently.

After walking for a while, Dio finally found a deserted place without any security camera! Dio also noticed that the girl from earlier was also following from behind while keeping a certain distance between her and the mobs.

"Now, let's talk about her medical expenses! You hit my sister! Now her knees are broken, you should pay $50.000 for that!" the man from earlier said confidently while pointing his gun at Dio. This guy looked like their leader; this kind of ruse was typical!

They waited for people with a luxurious car to drive close and threw themselves to the road while calculating the injuries that they would receive.

After all, people with a luxurious car wouldn't want to deal with this kind of situation.

But today was not their lucky day!

"Although I know that this was just an act, I am still a good person, and so I would agree to take care of your sister until she is fully recovered! I have a friend who was a surgeon, and I believe she would be able to heal your sister back to health! And stay a few steps back please, your stink breath is annoying me!" Dio said casually.

"Fuck you! Did you play me for a fool? Now, you will become my punching bag!" The man said as he immediately rushed towards Dio to punch Dio in the face. But as his fist flew towards Dio, it suddenly stopped and broke in seven different places!

"AAAAAAHHHH, my arms! Shoot him! Shoot him!" the man said while cringing for his broken arm. The rest of the mobs immediately shot as they saw their leader was on the ground, but instead of injuring Dio, the bullet bounced, and suddenly their arms and legs were broken!

The group of mobs wailed as they held their broken appendages.

"Sorry, a gun wouldn't be able to do anything to me!" Dio said indifferently. "Now, do you still need to talk about medical expenses?" Dio said with a smile on his face.

"No! No more! Leave us alone!" the man said as he crawled away from Dio.

"What are you talking about? I still need medication fee for my slightly bruised arms, you know!" Dio said while looking at his arm, clearly there was no bruise there! The man widened his eyes as he never expected to ever encounter a shameless man like this! He immediately threw his wallet at Dio and told the rest of his men to do the same.

Dio immediately took all their wallet and found only around $1.000 on it! "What is this! You're all broke as hell! What a complete waste of time!" Dio said annoyedly.

The man was clearly insulted by Dio's word, but he couldn't say anything to Dio as he feared for his safety!

Dio noticed that the little girl from earlier finally showed up, but she chose to hide behind the garbage bin with a trace of alertness on her eyes.

"Are you with them?" Dio asked as he walked towards the girl. The girl hesitated for a while and shook her head afterward.

"Is that man really your brother?" Dio asked curiously.

"No, he is not!" The girl said confidently this time.

"So, where is your family?" Dio asked again.

This time the girl didn't answer back and sat on the ground behind the garbage bin instead, hiding from Dio.

Dio knew that he couldn't just leave the girl like this, and so Dio took the $1.000 he found from the mob and took $1.000 more from his own pocket.

He immediately put the money on the ground in front of the girl.

"Buy something to eat, change your clothes! Clean yourself! Stop following these scums, nothing good comes from following these good for nothing!" Dio said solemnly. Dio immediately walked back into his car after he said those words and immediately resumed his drive back to his villa.. He didn't even look back at the girl as he knew that everyone had their own path to take!

277 Am I Have a Long-Lost Sister

The next day, Dio was dreaming about getting a super lucky draw and acquiring the [Killer Queen] and [King Crimson] Stand with only one ten times Draw! But his dream was interrupted as his bell rang loudly.

"Fuck! Who is coming to my house this early!" Dio said annoyedly as he walked towards his door to check who the guest was. But he was surprised to see two police officers were already waiting for him outside.

He began to wonder why did these police officers come into his house. Was it because of the mobs that he bullied yesterday?

"Good Morning, Mr. Brando. We are from the NYPD here to check on something." One policeman said casually while showing Dio his badge.

"Morning. May I know what is this all about?" Dio asked curiously.

The two police officers began to whisper, and one of them immediately walked back to their car.

"We are here because we found a girl earlier this Morning that suspiciously roamed around the shopping center near here. We tried to talk to her at first, but she was kind of spooked by our presence and tried to getaway. We have no choice but to chase her down, and after we did, she wouldn't talk to us! We have no other option but to bring her in on the assumption that she may have the intention of shoplifting." The policeman said to Dio, but he wasn't done yet!

"And then, once we arrive at the precinct, our female colleagues searched her body for something that could identify her identity, but the strange things keep happening, our colleagues couldn't find anything other than a big amount of money that wasn't supposed to be carried by a girl that age. We tried to ask her how did she get that much money, and finally, she talked by saying that it was given to her. When we asked who would give her that much money, she wouldn't answer us anymore!" the policeman said annoyedly.

Dio knew where this conversation was going. He knew that Asian and Black People wasn't appreciated that much in this country.

That was also why he hated to be polite to anyone in this country unless he was proven wrong! But he began to get curious about the girl that the police kept saying to him now.

Why would they think he had a connection with her?

"She finally started talking after we threatened to bring her to ICE. She began to tell us a plate number by saying that the car belongs to her brother. After we checked the license plate, the captain got a call from the higher-ups, asking why we tried to search for that license plate! We don't know that we didn't have permission to access your file, and so we list our reason to the boss, and finally, we got permission to look into your current address." The policeman said with a little bit worried expression.

He knew that the man in front of him was someone that wasn't supposed to be bothered by the string of problems that he got just to access this man's file!

Dio was surprised after hearing the policeman said that he had a sister. Who was this child? All he knew that his parent only had one child, and that was him! So, with so much curiosity, Dio finally spoke.

"So, where is she now?" Dio asked annoyedly.

"She is in the car now, she has a tendency of running away, and so we kept her on the car for now." The policeman said carefully. He was worried about how Dio would react to the fact that they got his sister.

But in his head, he started to wonder whether Dio was a bad brother or whether he was abusing her at home, and she decided to runs away like this.

But he didn't voice it out, worried that Dio would take that as an offense and reported it back to the higher-ups!

The policeman quickly told his partner to bring the girl out, and once Dio saw the girl that the policeman was talking about, he was surprised to see the girl from last night!

This was not a girl that he had in mind. He was thinking of some unknown girl that once saw his plate and remembered it for some kind of scam. This girl wasn't even his parent's illegitimate child if they even have any!

"Brother, please don't send me away! I will give you back all the money that you gave me yesterday!" the girl said pleadingly.

Dio was surprised once more; the girl seemed to be pleading him to take her with him! Dio took the money that the girl handed to him subconsciously.

The girl's bravery was the first thing that Dio noticed this far, and the second thing that he noticed was that the girl finally took a shower and changed her clothes, making her look so much better than the other night!

But Dio couldn't help but wonder what the girl would do once she was with Dio after this!

278 Doomed

After the policemen left Dio's Villa, Dio took two cans of soda and put one on the other end of the table where the girl was currently sitting.

Dio himself immediately opened the other can and gulped half of it to calm himself down! Although he didn't get any trouble from the policeman earlier, the girl was a burden for him now.

"Drink! Tell me your story. I want to hear the truth!" Dio said a little bit coldly. He had to be strict here. There was a chance that the girl only wanted to use him since he had money and therefore caused trouble for him later.

The little girl didn't take the soda can in front of her, but she did talk like what Dio asked her. Dio could see that the girl was nervous about her voice and her behavior, but he must hear the girl's story as soon as possible!

The little girl told Dio that she wanted to find a decent job, but she was too nervous, and the police mistakenly thought that she would steal from the shop.

Dio knew that if this was true, then it was only a misunderstanding earlier, but why would she run away from the police if that was the case.

But Dio knew that seeing a police officer walked towards you menacingly would evoke the fight or stimulate one's instinct.

After all, she was from a group of criminals yesterday! Dio was also satisfied that she was listening to his advice and tried to work decently.

"How old are you this year, and where is your family?" Dio asked curiously. But as soon as Dio asked that question, the girl immediately stopped talking! Dio could see that the girl was afraid of something.

Dio immediately realized that something bad must have happened to her regarding her family, most probably the girl's parent was already dead! Either that or maybe her parent used to abuse her!

"You don't have to force yourself if it was really that bad! This place has another two months lease! You can stay here if you want until then. I hope you can find a decent work and living space to live in! I will move out of this place today, and so, you don't need to be afraid of anything!" Dio said casually.

Dio finished his soda can and stood up to throw it into the trash can. Originally, Dio was reluctant to move out of this villa this fast!

After all, two months lease was still money! But, as he could help this girl, he wouldn't mind it that much.

With that said, Dio immediately walked towards his room to pack his things up and left. He didn't have that much stuff anyway, so he could move away from anywhere lightly. But as soon as Dio arrived at his room's door. The girl spoke again nervously.

"Crystal! My English name is Crystal! My Chinese name is Xiqian. I have no family, my parent was dead when the alien invaded, but it was all because of me!" The girl said while holding her tears.

Dio sighed and sat again.

"Crystal? That's a nice name! I remembered that the government held a lot of programs to help the citizens with the same problem as yours. Why don't you get to that immediately?" Dio asked curiously. Dio knew about this as he was curious about what the government did to help the people of New York that may lose the life of their loved ones and presumably their career.

But Dio knew that the government of America wasn't the only one who reached out their hand to help with the victims of the Alien Invasion.

The people from all over the world began to reach out and gather an awful lot of money in order to help the victims of the Alien Invasion to get back on their feet!

The earth was for once working on the same page, setting aside the resentment and conflict that flogged the countries all this time. But Crystal's answer made Dio frown.

"I don't want to burden anyone anymore! Misfortune would befall anyone that has an extended amount of contact with me! If it weren't for me, my parents wouldn't die, and I wouldn't live alone like this!" Crystal said as she kept looking at her hands.

"Although I don't know what happened to your parents, I think it isn't your fault! No one would expect the alien invasion thus, your parents' death was a pure coincidence!" Dio said as he tried to reassure Crystal.

Dio's words were true. The people of New York were caught in a massive invasion that Dio himself failed to predict, his involvement advanced the time of the Alien Invasion, and the place was completely different from the one he knew too!

But the next words that came from Crystal made Dio frown more!

She told Dio that she killed his birth mother as soon as she was born, she died from dystocia. Then when she was three years old, her birth father was dead from a car crash that in theory, was impossible to survive. But the thing was, she was also in the same car but didn't receive any major injury!

After that, she was taken in by her relatives, and strange things kept happening one after another. Her life was followed constantly by death, but she always survived with little to no injuries!

After the accident kept happening and her relatives began to fear her as a girl who brought misfortune!

She was immediately sent to the local orphanage, where she would repeat the same nightmare repeatedly. Once she was adopted by a caring and sweet family, she would always cause an incident and was eventually sent back to the orphanage!

She was constantly getting her hopes up by being adopted by a new family that seemed to be kind and caring, but she would be abandoned after a string of strange accidents happened to her new adoptive family! Until no one dared to adopt her anymore!

279 Won't Take In

In the end, the only one who would still take her in was the father of her orphanage. The troubles were still happening, even if the father wasn't really her adoptive parents.

At that time, however, all the accidents that befell the father were minor. The last straw came when the Alien Invaded!

One of the Alien's attack obliterated the orphanage and killed everyone inside, except for her! She once again became the only survivor of the accident!

Because of this final incident, she was determined to avoid getting close to anyone! When the bad guys from the other night caught her, she didn't resist!

As she knew that if she would cause any more misfortune, she might as well cause one for bad guys like them!

But Dio's advice that night awoken something that she thought was already long gone! A light of hope that was once there.

A memory of her birth father and the father of the orphanage that told her to keep going!

So, she took Dio's advice and cleaned herself on the river water and buy decent clothes on Target! She then bought a meal.

Even though it may not be the best meal that she could buy, it was much better than the meal that the mobs fed her.

After that, she tried to find a job in stores that needed a helper, but before she could find one, the police get to her first!

Then Dio already heard the rest of the story from the police!

She didn't know why she was compelled to trust Dio, but she felt a radiating warmth from Dio that she never felt from anyone before!After listening to Crystal's story, Dio was wondering whether Crystal was just truly lucky when it came to her own safety but extremely unlucky for anyone around her, or that something else might be happening!

Dio wasn't afraid of Crystal's accident-prone situation as Dio knew that none of it would harm him! Because of that, Dio's curiosity for the roots of Crystal's power was increasing!

She thought of Domino, the afro woman on Deadpool movies. She had the probability manipulation ability, where she could increase or decrease the chance that something would happen around her!

This may be the case for Crystal too, but Dio wouldn't know if he didn't observe her. Crystal's ability may be useful for Dio later!

Luck was something that was completely different among everyone on earth; it all came to their own perspective.

For example, a people walking peacefully on the sidewalk might be considered normal, but extremely lucky for those who had disabilities to walk!

If Crystal truly had this kind of ability and she could somehow learn to control it, Dio could have her ability to increase his chance of getting a good draw later!

"Aren't you afraid that I would kick you out after hearing all of this?" Dio asked curiously.

"I don't want you to get hurt, but at the same time, I trusted you with my story. Don't you worry, I've already made up my mind to leave anyway. Can I take this with me?" Crystal said as she held the soda can that Dio gave earlier.

Dio's heart wavered for a little bit. He began to wander back to the moment that he almost hit Crystal the other night. Perhaps, Crystal was already thinking of killing herself at that time.

"No!" Dio said as he thought of something, but Crystal thought that Dio was refusing to give Crystal the soda, and so she disappointedly put back the soda on the table.

"I wouldn't give you food for free! If you want to clean up this living room for me, I might consider making your lunch later." Dio said casually.

"Really? You mean it?" Crystal said as she became excited about the possibility of eating decent food.

Dio nodded his head, and Crystal immediately started cleaning the living room diligently. It seemed Dio had motivated her to live normally again.

Dio thought that he had to give Crystal a chance as the risk would be harmless to him anyway. But he also thought of the possibility of Crystal affecting someone else close to Dio later.

But the thought of having a probability manipulator around him canceled out risk altogether!

He couldn't hand her over to SHIELD or Xavier too. He still wasn't quite sure on what Crystal's ability was, she may not be a mutant at all, and SHIELD would probably just poke and prod at her like a lab rat. Dio wouldn't be that heartless to this little girl!

Eventually, Dio felt his headache from overthinking Crystal's situation. If he would have known that this kind of situation would happen, he probably took a different path yesterday!

But as Crystal finished cleaning the living room and standing awkwardly near the closet, Dio felt curious again.

"What would you like to do for a living? Did you want to work? Aren't you afraid it'll affect anyone later?" Dio asked curiously.

"I would try to find a work that doesn't require me to get in contact with other people often, from my experience, bad luck would start small! So, if I've already seen the bad luck that happened to the people in my workplace, I would immediately leave!" Crystal said confidently.

From Crystal's word, Dio noted that bad luck wouldn't be fatal right away. Maybe it would be like stepping into banana peel and slipped immediately and escalated until it would get fatal for people around her.

But Dio was just speculating, like what he thought before, he had to observe how Crystal's power worked first!

280 Death Is Coming

Dio was inclined that Crystal would have the power to manipulate probability like Black Cat or Domino!

So, Dio was eager to let Crystal work for him. He thought that maybe Crystal would be able to increase his luck next time he drew from the golden pool once she was able to control her power.

If it didn't work, Dio was thinking of letting the SHIELD took care of Crystal by giving her job or let her go on her own. He still has not decided yet on what to do next if this was not working!

Dio didn't know that at the same time, the Ancient One was observing him!

"I hope the sun on that man could dispel the darkness within you!" The Ancient One said as she looked at Crystal lovingly.

Dio didn't know that the Ancient One has put him on her observation list. He knew that the Ancient One must have known that Dio's power, especially [The World]'s power, was messing with time! But as The Ancient One never met Dio personally, Dio didn't think of it at all.

In fact, the Ancient One already knew everything about Dio. From his encounter with Dr. Strange to the recent battle of New York!

For now, all she did was observe them in silence. There was no need for her to take any action here!That night, Crystal, who hasn't slept well in a long time, finally could sleep peacefully on a comfortable bed.

But as the night grew darker, a faint black mist appeared from her body. Little Crystal's face immediately contorted in fear as her pleasant dreams instantly turned into a nightmare! Her nightmare was uninterrupted until the first ray of sunshine woke her from her sleep.

The black mist immediately returned to Crystal's body as soon as she opened her eyes, leaving no trace of its existence.

Crystal looked around in panic as she was confused after having a nightmare for so long. She couldn't remember what her nightmare was, but she felt the crippling fear and anxiety from the said nightmare.

An hour later, after Dio and Crystal were ready. Dio immediately drove towards the restaurant with Crystal to prepare for the restaurant's first opening day.

But something unexpected happened.

The street of New York was still under reconstruction. So, many Heavy-Duty machines spread out throughout the street.

That was also the case with the truck that delivered the materials needed for construction. This time, Dio was driving behind a truck that was loaded with sand, gravel, and steel!

Then a series of accidents happened. The truck driver was trying to avoid a pothole on the street that has yet to be repaired when suddenly his eyes were blinded by a light that came from the front!

The truck driver failed to avoid the pothole, the truck's back door was suddenly opened from the impact the truck received from hitting a pothole, and countless steel bar immediately flew towards Dio's car!

Dio doesn't feel afraid or anything from this accident, but he was still annoyed upon the realization that his car could get damaged!

So, in order to protect his car, Dio immediately summoned the [World] and immediately ordered the [World] to destroy every steel bar that came close to his car.

Dio immediately looked over to Crystal. He began to wonder whether this was because of Crystal's power or was it only a coincidence. But all he saw was a scared Crystal who hasn't done anything!

The people on the street started screaming as they were shocked to see an accident in front of their eyes, but they were immediately shocked to see that the car behind the truck was fine!

The truck stopped immediately, but all the steel bars already fell off from the back!

Many people immediately took out their phone and started recording the accident, while the truck driver immediately got out of the truck while looking scared shitless!

But as soon as he knew that the car behind him was okay, he knelt and thanked the gods!

Noticing that many people started to flood the street to see the accident on their own, Dio frowned. He didn't want to attract too much attention, so he immediately hit his gas pedal and accelerated away from the accident scene.While driving towards the restaurant, Dio couldn't help but think of the moment the accident happened. He recalled the scene bit by bit.

He knew that the steel bars were aimed at him! There were no steel bars aimed at Crystal or a random spot of his car. It was all aimed at him!

So, what did this accident give him? Dio finally realized that Crystal's words were all true; the accident wouldn't do any harm to her!

Dio knew that this wasn't a mutant power immediately, and so he was adamant about solving the mystery about Crystal's power!

But the next thing that confused Dio was the escalation of the bad luck that happened to him.. From Crystal's previous story, he knew that it shouldn't be this bad for the first time! So, what made him different than any other person?

281 Hippocampal Effect

"I should have left!" Crystal said as she lowered her head and started crying. Although she didn't know how they survived through the catastrophe just now, she knew that it was her fault! Her hopes for a peaceful life was shattered once more!

Dio took a glance at Crystal while still driving towards the restaurant.

"Has this happened before? A death scene right from the start?" Dio asked curiously.

Crystal looked at Dio and shook her head.

Dio sighed. He started to wonder whether it was because of his own bad luck. And so, he theorized that his bad luck amplified Crystal's bad luck!

But none of the steel bars directed at Crystal was really bothering Dio. Was Crystal really that lucky?

This was the first time Dio ever encountered this kind of power, he never even read this kind of power in Marvel Comics too!

"Now, did you feel anything before the accident happen? Did your body feel any change? Or did you imagine things like that to happen?" Dio asked Crystal curiously. He still had to find some evidence first before he could conclude anything.

But Little Crystal shook her head once again. She didn't feel anything that Dio has described. But as she tried to remember again, she seemed confused.

"I felt the accident was somewhat familiar, but I don't know where I have seen that before." Crystal said as she kept trying to remember.

"Then, you've already seen it before. Have you ever had the same kind of accident as earlier?" Dio asked curiously.

"No, I don't think I have experienced the same accident like this one. But I know that every time the accident happened, I feel familiar with each one!" Crystal said as confusion was clear on her face.

"Every time? That's weird!" Dio said as now he had one key to unlock the mysteries! Dio knew what Déjà vu was. It meant that Crystal had seen the scene before, whether it was real or on her mind!

Could it be a projection of Crystal's subconscious mind? Dio couldn't say for sure, but it seemed he was close to the fact now!

But, if Crystal's power was like a mind projection, then it meant it had nothing to do with luck, but a reality warper! This was more powerful and dangerous than a mere probability manipulation!

In the end, Dio was still inconclusive whether he found a treasure or something else more dangerous! But, seeing Crystal sad like this, Dio had to put this thought aside for now.Dio finally parked his car on the restaurant's parking space, and he immediately invited Crystal inside.

"Let's go inside. What are you still doing in the car!" Dio said as he called Crystal over. Crystal was a little bit surprised that Dio still wanted to be around her.

But her mind was already telling her to leave Dio alone, as she didn't want another kind person to fall victim to her power. But Dio's next word left her no other choice.

"Hey, hurry up! At least you can finish the work you owe me for the previous night!" Dio said casually. Crystal then unwillingly followed Dio inside the restaurant.

"It's okay. I have to leave immediately after my work is done!" Crystal said to herself as she felt uneasy. But, as she stepped outside of the building, she was immediately in awe! This was the first time she entered such a marvelous and unique building!

"Welcome back, Master!" the A. I voice said as Dio stepped inside the restaurant. The voice successfully startled Crystal out of her mind.

"Don't be afraid! It was just a house A.I; her name was Zeppeli." Dio said to reassure Crystal.

"Zeppeli, this is Crystal, and she would be the waiter and cleaner for this restaurant in the future," Dio said to the A.I.

"Scan complete, identity recorded!" the A. I said in a robotic tone.

"Oh yeah, how old are you?" Dio asked Crystal curiously.

"I am 20 years old!" Crystal said shyly.

Dio looked at Crystal and raised his brows in question. There was no way a child like this has reached 20!

"How old are you again?" Dio asked curiously.

"18 …" Crystal said nervously as she knew that she was caught lying.

"Now, I will give you one last chance!" Dio said playfully.

"I am 16 in one more month! I swear it's the truth this time!" Crystal said as she looked down nervously.

"Fair enough!" Dio said as he immediately walked towards the kitchen, he knew that some people would ask her about her age, but he realized that people knew that Asian was a late bloomer, so people wouldn't ask that much!

"Now, here are the cleaning supplies for the restaurant. It's all in there, so feel free to use it as you want. In the meantime, I will go out for a while to buy the ingredients needed for the restaurant to open later. Don't be slack off! I would check the result right after I got here again!" Dio said as he pulled out the tools that Crystal should use later.

Crystal nodded her head and started cleaning immediately. Dio himself immediately left the restaurant to go to the nearby market to buy the ingredients that he needed.

However, he wondered whether he forced a child to work for him or not. After some time, Dio immediately called someone.

"Hey! Yeah, it's me! I need you to do me a favor!" Dio said to his phone.At the restaurant, Crystal diligently cleaned the restaurant.. As an orphan, she had to learn things like this to make herself look useful to the people that would adopt her later, she learned a lot from the orphanage that she was from, but she was immediately saddened as she remembered that everyone on the orphanage was dead! Just as her thought got depressing, the faint black mist flashed on her eyes!

282 Omnipotent Dream

Crystal was having a good day at Dio's Restaurant. She knew that she had to clean the restaurant, but the meal that Dio has made for her was heavenly!

But she felt scared as soon as she saw the price on Dio's menu. The cheapest was at $ 20.000 while the made to order dietary meal was at $ 200.000!

At the same time, Crystal was confused! How could anyone pay to eat a meal this expensive? Wasn't this also some kind of embezzlement?

She knew that Dio's meal was delicious as she tasted it herself, but she wouldn't pay it that much money! She felt scared that she would have to pay for this amount too, so she cried by herself silently.

"Hey, why are you crying?" Dio said as he noticed Crystal crying while having her meal.

"I don't have money to pay for your meal!" Crystal said as she sniffled.

"Don't worry about that! I have a proposition for you, you can pay me back with a 50% discount, or you can work for me! Of course, with a salary and lodging for you." Dio said casually.

"Are you sure that I can stay here? I may affect your business just with me being here!" Crystal said tearily.

"Don't worry about that. I would just deal with it when the time comes!" Dio said casually. He was intrigued and curious about Crystal's power, but everything took time!

As soon as Crystal heard Dio's word, she immediately ran toward the dishwasher to wash any utensils that Dio used to cook earlier.

She couldn't afford to slack off as she knew that Dio was a serious person, plus she must prove her worth!

After Crystal left, Zeppeli's voice was heard near Dio.

"Mr. Stark has equipped the place with the state-of-the-art automatic dishwasher. Why did you still let the little girl do it manually, master?" Zeppeli asked confusedly.

"Machine surely works more efficiently than a human does, but human's existence needs value! That is what I have to teach little Crystal myself!" Dio said casually as he smirked to himself.

In the evening, Crystal immediately fell asleep in a room that was already arranged for her. She was exhausted from cleaning the restaurant all day long.

At the same time, Dio couldn't sleep, and so he walked out of his room and walked toward Crystal's room to confirm his assumption of Crystal's power.

As Crystal said that she would feel every incident like a déjà vu, Dio knew that meant Crystal's power must work with her mind while she imagined things!

Dio observed Crystal all day, and he never saw Crystal daydreamed, so he concluded that Crystal's power must've occurred in her dreams!

Dreams and daydreams had the same pretext where the mind began to imagine things out of the ordinary, and that was also why most people couldn't exactly remember their dreams.

Therefore, Dio felt the need to check on Crystal while she was sleeping.

Dio knew that this was far fetched, but he still had to see it for himself! Even if Crystal turned out normal, there's no harm in just checking!

As Dio arrived at Crystal's door, he immediately confirmed that Crystal was sound asleep. He immediately walked inside Crystal's room quietly as to not wake Crystal up. However, after quite some time observing Crystal sleep, Dio felt like a creep!

He didn't see anything weird happening, and so he wondered whether he was just overthinking about this incident.

Dio tried to cover his eyes with the [Life Magnetism Overdrive] to see anything that couldn't be seen by the normal human eye.

However, after an hour passed, Dio was disappointed as he still didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

Dio sighed in disappointment and immediately left Crystal's room quietly. Even though it was just a speculation, Dio was still hoping to find something!

Shortly after Dio left Crystal's room, the black mist immediately appeared again from Crystal's body. Strangely, the black mist wasn't covering Crystal's body like it used to do.

It looked over the direction that Dio previously stood disgustedly. Quickly after, it immediately returned to Crystal's body as if nothing happened!

This was a rare occasion for Crystal as she didn't have a nightmare and could sleep soundly without care.

When Crystal woke up in the morning, she was cheerful, and Dio was a little bit surprised by this change.

He didn't know that Crystal was having trouble sleeping from her nightmares, so Dio just shrugged it off!

Dio then immediately brought Crystal back to the restaurant as her jobs were still the same thing as yesterday!

283 Survvey Data

"This is all information that you asked for, but I didn't know that you have a taste for something forbidden like this," Natasha said teasingly on her sexy clothes. Dio ignored her and immediately read the report that she gave.

"You've obviously read this data; did you have any thought on this matter?" Dio asked Natasha sternly.

"I have sent some agents to investigate, and sadly, all of it was indeed an accident! There is no proof of saying that the girl's accident was not a coincidence!" Natasha said as she tapped her fingers on the table.

"So, did you think that it was just a coincidence that every steel bar on the truck fell on me while the girl was close by, but never really in any form of danger?" Dio asked Natasha, annoyedly.

Dio knew that he was making a mistake asking SHIELD to investigate this matter for him. Dio never thought that he was a member of SHIELD, but after the Battle of New York, Dio's relation with SHIELD has gotten better.

Now, Dio didn't really mind using his power in public, but he still concealed his identity, and he knew that the SHIELD would take care of any problems about his identity.

"What makes you so sure that there is something wrong about this girl?" Natasha asked curiously.

"I am sure that there is something with this girl, but I still don't know what yet! But, if my suspicions are true, the girl's power would be dangerous!" Dio said as he kept wondering how to confirm Crystal's power.

"If you believe so, then you should have handed her over to the SHIELD for further tests. It was also our responsibility to discover such a threat and control it!" Natasha said casually.

"That is not possible right now, if you take her to SHIELD, the result would be either you killed her on accident or the SHIELD was annihilated from the face of the earth!" Dio said solemnly. He wasn't telling any bullshit to Natasha, and she could sense that!

Dio thought that Crystal's power was somewhere around Reality Warping in the media of her dreams. Putting her under house arrest without anything to do would quicken Crystal's power as she was forced to do nothing.

To be honest, Dio was torn in so many options that he must consider too. The thought that kept coming was if Crystal was really a reality warper, how could Dio help her control that kind of power! The reality warper was the most overpowered ability that anyone in the comic world had!

"If she really had the power of bad luck, then what is she? The pandora who is guarding her box, or is it a curse?" Natasha said as she was also engrossed in her own thoughts.

She believed Dio's judgment, and because of that, she was a little worried to see Dio felt uneasy about a little girl's possible ability.

Moreover, luck was intangible. There was no possible means to exactly value someone's luck.

"I don't really know yet, but I have an idea on how to bring it out in a controlled environment, I hope!" Dio said as he still wondered about his own idea. "The rate of the bad luck was already at the fatal level, if it weren't me, anyone in my place would've been skewered by countless steel bar!" Dio said annoyedly.

Natasha nodded as she realized that Dio's accident was on the top list of her' ugliest way to die!' Natasha knew that Dio's determination would eventually lead to something.

But she hoped that the incident like Loki wouldn't be the situation that Dio's determination lead to!

"Well, if you've already had a plan, I am afraid I have to get going now. but if you need any help, I am just a call away!" Natasha said as she winked at Dio, gesturing on sex! "I wouldn't mind deactivating the black widow in me if it's only for one night!

"Thank you, but I have my own appointment later. But I think Dr. Banner would have time to spare with you. but the thing is, he really likes you, so don't break his heart!" Dio said in a teasing tone. He knew that Natasha wouldn't like it if her words were thrown back to tease her!

This was Dio's rejection. He wasn't interested in doing anything with Natasha as he knew that it would lead to trouble later.

"I don't do a hag!" Dio said sternly.

"When did you get Tony's bad mouth? Did you become his pet now? Speaking of pets, your snail almost got cooked yesterday." Natasha said as she smirked teasingly.

"Well, if it's dead, I would like to have a worthy compensation for its death!" Dio said casually with a smirk on his face.

"Well, it is time for me to leave now. But you know, I prefer to deal with the alien than this unknown threat!" Natasha said carefully.

Natasha then put her gun back to its holster and started to walk out of Dio's restaurant..

284 Is There Hip-Hop In America

After Dio finished his meeting with Natasha, he quickly called Will in order to meet up with him. Since Jessica introduced him to her hot friend, Will changed!

He was no longer the desperate Will that Dio has known before. In fact, while working, Will kept glancing at his phone, chatting, or calling his girlfriend.

Near the Battle of New York earlier, Dio gave Will a vacation ticket to Hawaii. Dio didn't know at that moment that Will would also bring his girlfriend along.

After the Alien Invasion was successfully repelled, Dio immediately called Will to see how he was doing, and he was having the time of his life with his girlfriend!

After returning from his vacation, Will and his girlfriend were even more stuck with each other. Will called Dio once he landed in New York, and once Dio said that the restaurant was destroyed, Will was sad, but because he had his girl now, he quickly let it go and filled his day with his girlfriend.

Had it not from Jessica, Dio would never know about Will's condition anymore. Dio finally arrived at Will's apartment complex.

Will has upgraded his apartment since he got a lot of money from Dio. As Dio walked into Will's apartment, Will immediately welcomed him and started telling his story while he was in Hawaii.

But Will immediately stopped talking as soon as his girlfriend walked into the living room. He immediately introduced Dio to her to clear the awkwardness.

"Hello, I am Dio. Will's best friend!" Dio said with his charming smile.

"I am Una. Jessica has already told me about you, but you are clearly a lot more charming than what she has told me about!" Una said as she giggled beautifully.

Dio could see why Will changed. This black girl was beautiful as well as hot, like summer! There was no doubt Will, who usually hung around prostitutes, would fall head over heels for this beautiful woman! But Dio pitied her for having Will as her boyfriend.

"Brother, come sit! What did you want to drink? Beer? Whiskey?" Will said as he invited Dio to join him on the island.

"No, I am driving! Just give me sparkling water." Dio said casually.

"I am sorry, but we only have wine for the lowest alcohol level on this house," Will said apologetically.

Dio sighed and took a bottle of beer that was already on the island. Will then handed over another beer bottle to Una, and he also pulled her over and started a make-out session, which made Dio a little uncomfortable.

As he saw that these two wouldn't stop, he coughed intentionally to separate the two lovers.

"Sorry, I forgot that you were here!" Will said honestly. Dio was a little bit annoyed and flipped the bird to Will as his friendly answer.

"Now, let's talk about business. My new restaurant has been renovated, and the location is right in the old Stark Building. Would you like to go there and look?" Dio said casually.

"Wow, it's already finished? It's so fast! You didn't put all your money in it, right?" Will asked worriedly.

"It's okay; I will get it back eventually," Dio said with a smirk to Will. Dio knew that Will was the only one who would immediately catch on his stupid decision.

"I also have good news to tell!" Will said excitedly.

"What? Are you going to be a father soon?" Dio asked innocently.

"No! I mean, I will have a child eventually, but it's not about that! I have participated in Mc Hip Hop Contest! I decided to follow Una's suggestion and start to pursue my dream as a rapper! Una also promised to be my manager, as long as I win this contest, signing and releasing an album would be easy!" Will said excitedly.

Dio was surprised by Will's news. He never expected Will to leave his post as Dio's right-hand man on the restaurant and took a risk to pursue his dream like this.

"Have you thought it over? I knew that you have a rap talent, but people who could pass the audition to that contest would be in the same boat as you are! But, if you are confident about it, I will support you for that!" Dio said as he smiled genuinely.

"I know, I am confident about this! in hip hop, the most important things to have is confident after all!" Will said confidently.

"All right! I will watch the show when it started. If you finally reach the final, don't forget to let me know!" Dio said with a big smile on his face.

Will's spot on his restaurant was not that important. He already had the A. I to help him receive calls, and the place was almost fully automated thanks to Stark, and now he even had little Crystal for stuff that has to be done manually.

"The contest would be recorded in LA, and I would leave for LA tomorrow. Originally, I want to tell you as a surprise later, but it doesn't matter now! How do you feel about this? you will have a big star like your brother later!" Will said teasingly.

"Nah, a big dumb star as a brother is not worth bragging about!" Dio said, teasing Will back..

285 The Opening Ceremony!

Dio knew that Will wouldn't be his waiter for the rest of his life and so he supported Will's decision to pursue his dream.

Plus, Crystal wouldn't have any problem cleaning up the mess that his guest would leave behind as she wouldn't have to socialize with anyone.

The thing was that Dio had to find out about her power properly first in order to have a controlled environment for her.

So, Dio decided to postpone the reopening of his restaurant for a week and sent invitations to his old customers to let them know the date of the reopening.

In the meantime, Dio was training Crystal about what she needed to do when the customer has left. Dio watched Crystal like a hawk as he must figure out Crystal's power soon!

But no matter how hard he observed Crystal's every move, he couldn't find any abnormalities, plus Dio hasn't experienced any weird accident lately.

The first accident was the only accident that he had so far!

Although it may be risky to open the restaurant while he still couldn't find any solution to Crystal's power, the restaurant still has to be opened!

Dio didn't like to owe people money, and right now, he still had to pay Tony back for the decoration fee of the restaurant!Time passed, and the reopening day was finally here! Even though only a few of his old customers could make a reservation for today, many of his old customers sent an appreciative gift for his reopening.

Not to mention, Tony successfully attracted so many eyes as he used the Iron Man suit to make an appearance at Dio's Fantasy Restaurant Reopening day.

Dio was obviously startled as he didn't want to draw the media's attention towards him.

"You didn't even invite me for your reopening day! How rude! Are you afraid that I would steal your limelight?" Tony said from inside his Iron Man suit to Dio.

Dio was annoyed beyond belief as Tony attracted so many of his fans to Dio's door. "Don't you think this is a little bit excessive?" Dio said annoyedly.

"Oh, come on! This is our bromance moment!" Tony said teasingly.

"Bromance your ass! Your existence makes me allergic!" Dio said annoyedly.

"Well, in that case, we have to build up your tolerance, don't worry, I will come to the restaurant every day!" Tony said teasingly.

Dio became more annoyed, but he couldn't do anything about it! Right now, there were so many people watching them, and the media was also here!

If he showed that he could kick Iron Man's ass now, people would start to investigate his identity.

Suddenly, Tony pulled Dio for a photo session and started to wave over to his fans.

"Smiles! Don't be so stiff!" Tony whispered as Dio was just standing there, doing nothing.

"Shut up, you!" Dio said, holding out his anger.

"Come on, don't forget that you still owe me 10 million dollar worth of decoration fees!" Tony said teasingly.

"Shut up, Stark! Or I will force you to shut the fuck up!" Dio said coldly.

Tony smirked, but he actually felt the chilling sensation just now. He realized that he had to stop now, or Dio would explode on him.

Fortunately, Tony was already satisfied with teasing Dio for today. Tony then walked towards the people who came because of him and started to chat here and there, leaving Dio alone.

The people that came with Stark was originally wealthy people, but after seeing the price on Dio's menu and his weird rules, people got scared and declined their intention to dine there. Dio didn't really care, though, as it wouldn't affect him that much!

Most of the remaining potential customers that came with Tony were also skeptical about the validity of Dio's Fantasy Restaurant's.

If it was not because of Tony and some other big names that vouched for Dio's authenticity, they might've also left with the first group!

Dio didn't mind at all; he kept his mysterious routine and didn't care to explain too much about his dish to people.

But Dio surely exchanged some business cards for the interested guests. After all, the best explanation of Dio's dish could be known as soon as they tasted it themselves!

Soon enough, the people started leaving, as they wouldn't be able to dine without reservation and thus have nothing else to do in Dio's restaurant. Right on time, the first reservation of the day came to Dio's restaurant.

At first, she was a little bit surprised to see so many media in front of the restaurant, but Dio reassured her that the restaurant has the best soundproofing, and people outside wouldn't know what happened inside.

It wasn't until the first reservation left with satisfaction on her face that Dio called Crystal out to clean after the customer's table.

Although Dio hasn't had an accident this past week, he couldn't relax until he found out Crystal's power. He had to stay vigilant, so he didn't show Crystal to anyone for now.

After all, if the customer received bad luck after dining in Dio's restaurant, they could associate their bad luck with Dio's restaurant and chose to never return after that!

Dio also motivated Crystal to work harder to receive even more money that she could use later for anything she wanted!

She took Dio's advice to heart and started working hard. After all, Dio's words were right! She shouldn't rely on Dio's protection for her whole life. She was even relieved as there was no other accident that happened to Dio in the past week!

Her life has turned for the better. She was living inside a big house with amazing foods in every meal, and even a big salary for a normal work!

She was very grateful for Dio's benevolence.. She hoped Dio would have a long life so that she could stay with him forever!

286 Black Mist Reappears!

After the reopening day has come to an end, Dio calculated his earnings for the day. He successfully earned a few million with a low amount of capital; at this rate, he would be able to pay back Tony's money real soon!

Crystal then approached Dio with a face full of sweat as she worked hard to clean the mess that the last customer left behind.

"The restaurant is all clean, sir, what else you need me to do?" Crystal said nervously as she felt the fatigue coming in. But she knew that no matter what Dio told her to do, she would do it immediately!

Seeing that Crystal was already finished her works, Dio was satisfied. Initially, he only wanted to let Crystal work for him until Will returned, but now that Will has gone to pursue his dream, having Crystal around was not a bad idea.

"You've done a good job! It should be no bonuses on your trial days, but because you've already performed so well, I will make an exception this time!" Dio said as he handed over 200 dollars to Crystal's hands.

Crystal then laughed happily and expressed her gratitude to Dio. The money that Dio gave her just now was her first hard-earned money!

This was proof that her existence had value, and also proved that she wasn't worthless at all!

"Thank you so much, Mr. Dio! I will work even harder in the future!" Crystal said as she giggled happily.

Seeing the little girl was bouncing out of joy, Dio felt a little bit guilty. He paid Will so much more than what he just gave to Crystal.

Wouldn't he be called cheap if anyone knew this difference in salary? But then again, he had the excuse that Crystal was only starting today and so she was still in training.

"Now, go take a bath and change your clothes! We will have dinner soon." Dio said to Crystal casually.

Crystal immediately nodded her head after knowing that she would have another great meal soon. She immediately ran toward the back room, where she put her change of clothes and immediately went straight towards the shower.

Although Dio was in a little bit of a debt situation, he wouldn't treat his employee badly! He knew that Crystal had malnutrition as she came to Dio, so he needed to gradually treat Crystal with the [Pearl Jam] to slowly restore her condition.

If this meal was calculated according to its price on the menu to Crystal's salary, Crystal has received more salary than Will!

After they both finished their meal, Dio immediately returned to his bedroom while Crystal went toward her own bedroom.

The night was getting late, and Dio decided to stay in his room tonight, leaving Crystal unobserved for the night!

In the middle of the night, the black mist appeared once again from inside Crystal's body. It immediately inspected it is surrounding and saw that the dangerous existence that was keeping tabs on Crystal wasn't there tonight.

It decided to stay observant for a while, but after two hours, it realized that the dangerous existence wouldn't come, and so it immediately covered Crystal's body once again.

Crystal, who was sleeping soundly earlier, began to turn and thrash around uncomfortably. Her face was full of horror, anxiety, and nervousness as if she experienced some sort of hellish nightmare.

She struggled to wake up, but the black mist wouldn't let her do so, it restrained Crystal in the dream world full of a nightmare!

At the same time, Zeppeli's voice was heard in Dio's room.

"Sir, Crystal is currently going through a nightmare. Do I have to wake her immediately?" Zeppeli said with its robotic voice.

Today Dio has installed a camera inside Crystal's room that would be monitored by Zeppeli.

The A.I would immediately notify Dio if Crystal would ever show any indication of having a nightmare. Dio resorted to this action as he had no luck observing Crystal night after night.

Dio immediately wrapped his body in Hamon Energy and silently walked towards Crystal's door. Dio suddenly opened Crystal's door and immediately saw that Crystal was covered in a black mist!

Dio was confused as this was his first time seeing something like this, so as he made a move to walk toward Crystal, the black mist suddenly straightened up like a cobra.

"Interesting, this is the first time I ever encountered something like this. what are you?" Dio said as he kept walking towards Crystal.

The black mist transformed quickly into a horrifying creature to scare Dio away, but it didn't affect Dio at all!

Dio then strengthened the Hamon Energy on his right hand and reached out to the black mist with the intention to grab it.

But as soon as the Hamon Energy touched the black mist, it destroyed the black mist!

Knowing that it wouldn't stand a chance against Dio in the real world, the black mist immediately retracted itself inside Crystal's body!

287 Restaurant...Explosion...Dead!

"Where do you think you are going!" Dio said as he reached out to the retreating black mist, but sadly Dio wasn't fast enough!

Dio then grabbed Crystal's hands and immediately transmitted his Hamon Energy to Crystal's hand while thinking that it could attack the black mist from within.

Crystal, who was clearly having a nightmare before, now showed a relaxed and comfortable expression on her face.

Dio frowned as he couldn't feel the black mist's presence from Crystal's body. It was like the black mist didn't even exist in the first place!

If he didn't destroy some of the black mist himself earlier, he might be having a hard time believing that the creature even existed!

While Dio was still left wondering what the black mist really is, Crystal suddenly opened her eyes! Dio was surprised as he doesn't have any reason to be inside Crystal's room.

"Uhm, I am here as I heard you scream! I thought you might be in danger, but it turns out just a nightmare!" Dio said as he tried to give a valid reason for why he was inside Crystal's room. "Go back to sleep. I will go back to my room now." Dio said as he walked out of Crystal's room immediately, avoiding the awkward moment.

"No, don't go! I am scared! I am just having a nightmare that I seemingly can't wake up from! Can you at least stay until I fall back to sleep?" Crystal said as she looked at Dio hopefully.

Dio was surprised and suddenly felt he didn't know what to do, but he immediately decided to stay and sat on the chair near Crystal's bed.

"Do you still remember what nightmare you had earlier?" Dio asked curiously. He realized that the black mist might be up to something as it didn't retreat right away as soon as Dio entered the room; instead, it constantly transformed its form in an attempt to scare Dio away.

Furthermore, Crystal was still able to tell that she was having a nightmare before waking up, so Dio knew that he was making progress on figuring out Crystal's power!

Although Crystal didn't know the reason why Dio wanted to know her nightmare, she might as well talk about it to ease her fear a little bit. "I don't remember all the details, but I remember that it was very dark! I remember that some man with a briefcase that I never saw before came to the restaurant and suddenly an explosion engulfed everything! It was horrible; many people died because of the explosion!" Crystal said as she showed a horrified expression.

"That's enough for now, Crystal. Go back to sleep; you need to rest!" Dio said as he felt Crystal didn't have to remember her nightmare any further. Everything from a dream was just an imagination, a fake! There is nothing you need to be afraid of. Now sleep, you still have work to do tomorrow." Dio said warmly.

"Thank you, Mr. Dio. I am so much better now." Crystal said as she closed her eyes to go back to sleep.

Dio immediately left Crystal's room and returned to his own room. Inside his room, he ordered Zeppeli to show him the footage of Crystal's room when she was having a nightmare. He was serious now. If his guess was correct, Crystal's nightmare would become a reality soon!

Zeppeli immediately played the video that Dio wanted to watch, but Dio couldn't see the black mist in Crystal's body.

Even though he was using his Hamon Energy on his eyes to detect the black mist on the video, he still couldn't see it! It seemed that the black mist only could be seen in person.

That meant it was an Energy or Spiritual existence because the camera should record any other kind of creature!

Dio hit another wall as the black mist's existence was hard to decipher. But for the time being, he knew what to do for the next incident!

An unknown man with a briefcase would bring a bomb to the restaurant!

Dio then started to write the critical information on his phone's reminder, so that he wouldn't forget about it the next day!

The explosion wouldn't harm him in any way, but the restaurant has only opened for one day. If it blew up and many people died. As a result, he would receive public backlashes and unable to continue his restaurant business.

But Dio now knew one critical information to defeat Crystal's black mist! It seemed the black mist was easily destroyed with his Hamon Energy! He could use it to destroy it once and for all as soon as Dio got the opportunity to!

But Dio started to wonder if the black mist was able to materialise the nightmare that Cristal had. Then, could it also materialise the good dream? Currently, Dio didn't know whether the black mist's power was Reality Warper or a powerful Precogs!

Because of that, Dio wasn't quite sure whether the black mist could affect his personal bad luck or not. If he could change his luck for just a moment, he was sure to get his hands on some strong Stand!

For now, Dio thought of some way to prevent Crystal's nightmare to materialise again.. He ordered Zeppeli to watch over Crystal 24/7, and once Crystal showed a sign that she was having a nightmare, he ordered Zeppeli to forcefully wake her up immediately!

288 False Alarm

Dio got up early this morning. He wanted to know what kind of idiot dared to target his restaurant with a bomb!

Couldn't those people understand that all Dio wanted to do was earning money! Dio was determined to kill the person that would bring trouble to his restaurant as soon as he saw that person got close to his establishment!

The entire morning, he didn't see any suspicious person near his restaurant, and so he spent the day as usual and had a good nutritious meal for lunch with Crystal.

While he was cooking for his customer, he dispatched [Hanged Man] to watch over the restaurant's front door to check any suspicious man that resembled Crystal's description.

But until it was almost closing time, the person that was supposed to bomb Dio's place didn't show up. The restaurant was peaceful, like always. Nothing major happened in the vicinity!At the same time, a man driving a black jeep close to the Stark Building was holding his dog tag nervously.

"Calm down! I don't want you to blow up in the car!" The other person on the car said indifferently.

"I can't wait for Killian to get out of that building so that I can blow it up to the sky!" The first man said nervously.

"Shut up! It's not the time yet! We have to get Stark to perfect the Extremist Virus first! If you ruin our plan, I will cut your head off right now!" the second man said while chewing a gum. However, the first man suddenly became red; his skin gradually began to change into a deep red colour!

"I think I am about to blow! I can't control it anymore!" the first man said nervously.

"Fuck! Why did the organization use someone as weak as you!" the second man said, slightly annoyed as he looked into the first man. Then he looked around and saw Dio's restaurant. Suddenly he got an idea.

"Hey, why don't you blow up that restaurant instead? The owner is rumored to be a good friend of Tony Stark! It was opened yesterday, and it seems Tony even attended with his trademark Iron Man suit! Besides, it littered with celebrities and wealthy people. Your sacrifice would be valuable!" The second man said indifferently.

"You are right! I will send them to meet the lords painlessly!" the first man said as he immediately prepared to go out of the car and blow out Dio's restaurant.

But at the same time, Killian has finished his meeting with Tony and being walked out by Pepper herself as an act of courtesy.

After Killian bid his farewell to Pepper, he immediately walked toward the black jeep and entered the car.

"Killian, let me declare war to Tony Stark! I couldn't hold it anymore!" The first man said to Killian as he held out his disgruntled voice.

"No! this is not the time yet! Just think about your family! Calm your self down! Your anger will soon be heard!" Killian said to the first man.

The first man let out a sigh, and as he closed his eyes to think of his family as Killian suggested, the deep red colour from his skin gradually turned back to normal.

On the other hand, the second man that was still chewing a bubble gum, shook his head in disappointment as he thought of how boring it was to just wait like this.For the whole day, Dio was vigilant of anyone that may pose a threat to his establishment, but the scene that Crystal saw in her nightmare didn't happen!

While he thought that it was a little bit weird that nothing really happened, he began to wonder whether his action last night successfully disrupt the black mist's ability to turn Crystal's nightmare into a reality!

But there was also the possibility that it wasn't meant to happen that day; it may take a while for it to happen!

He was determined to stay vigilant for a couple more days so that he knew for sure that Crystal's nightmare was really the cause of her own bad luck!

He would also observe Crystal with the camera that he installed in Crystal's bedroom. With that, he could get information from Zeppeli as soon as Crystal had a bad dream. Therefore, he could get another opportunity to capture the Black Mist once more.

After a few days, Dio's guess was correct! The black mist never showed up again in these few days, and Crystal was sleeping soundly at night! Dio didn't know whether this meant that he got good news or not at all!

Following the next day, Pepper came over to ask Dio whether Tony had talked about his sudden busy schedule with Dio as Pepper started to think that there was something wrong with Tony in this couple few days.

Dio told her that he didn't have any idea of what Tony would do as he never talked to him about his personal business..

289 Terrorist Attack

Time passed for a month after Dio had found out about the existence of the black mist, but unfortunately, the black mist never appeared again.

Pepper was also constantly calling Dio as she became more worried about Tony's abnormal behavior that seemed to escalate every day!

Recently, Tony seemed to focus on his Iron Man armour above anything else. He even slept on his workshop inside his Iron Man suit!

When Dio got wind of this occurrence from Pepper, he was laughing his ass off as he couldn't imagine Tony became that insecure about something.In Tony's villa, Tony was sitting on the ground tiredly after making another armour last night. He hasn't slept for a couple of days as he kept researching for a new model of Iron Man armour.

Although he didn't want to admit it, his mental state was undoubtedly in bad shape now. This all happened after he guided the nuclear missiles through the portal at New York Battle a couple of months ago!

He became insecure unless he was inside his Iron Man armour. That was also the reason why Pepper felt something was wrong with Tony recently.

"Sir, you should rest in your room; your body needs it!" Jarvis advised with his monotone robotic voice.

"You are right! I need to relax for a bit." Tony said as he sat on his sofa and turned on the Tv.

But as soon as the Tv turned on, the news anchor immediately informed him about the existence of a new terrorist mastermind that called himself the Mandarin!

The news program was interrupted as a live broadcast was currently streamed to all people of America.

The terrorist group was using it to show the entire America that they were bombing shopping centre and airplanes away without giving any valid reason.

The U.S government was overwhelmed by the number of calls that they got from the people who wanted to know whether the scene that they saw on the Tv was true or not. People also asked the government regarding what they were planning to do to stop this terrorist!

For their answer, the government held a press conference with Colonel Rhodey Rhodes as the speaker to ease the people's qualms.

With his War Machine armour that Tony had officially given to Rhodes after Ivan Vanko's incident, the people seemed to trust him a little bit more.

But that was soon overshadowed by the terrorist activities that kept growing bolder and killed many more innocent people.

Colonel Rhodes, with his 'Iron Patriot' suit that was just the War Machine suit repainted into the USA flag, wasn't enough to reassure people anymore.

New York was hit the hardest! As obviously, New York had a lot more people per square miles than any other city in the USA. This resulted in people getting afraid of living in New York, especially the wealthy! They were afraid that something bad would happen to them if they stayed in New York, so many of them left New York until the terrorists were arrested!

This obviously affected Dio's Fantasy Restaurant, as many of his customers decided to cancel their appointment with Dio as long as the terrorists were still operating in New York City. Dio was enraged by this sudden turn of event.

He was furious with this new terrorist group! He lamented why those terrorists prefer New York City among so many other cities in the USA.

Dio also thought about why it was so hard to earn honest money right now! He finally snapped and determined to obliterate this terrorist cell down to its root!"So, any new information I got to know about the Mandarin?" Tony asked Rhodes as they were eating their dinner.

"I am afraid that is classified information, but well, it's useless to tell you that anyway! So, the Mandarin has bombed a total of 9 places in New York alone, but only three were known to the public. But the problem is, the explosion didn't leave anything behind, so the bomb squad was having a hard time identifying the bomb used by the terrorist." Rhodey said casually.

"I think I can help you with that. I have the Iron Man Armour that was perfect for the job!" Tony said, but he was immediately interrupted by the sound of his phone ringing.

"Excuse me for a moment. I have to take this call!" Tony said to Rhodey as he picked up his phone.

"Yeah, what's up?" Tony said upon picking phone casually, but instead of a normal and calm Dio, Tony was met with disgruntled Dio!

"Tony! Stop whatever it is that you are doing now! Come to the restaurant! Because of that damned terrorist, my customers canceled their reservation! Do you know how much I lost in a day? Help me find those bastards, and let's put an end to this fucking useless group of scumbags!" Dio said disgruntledly to the phone.

Tony put down his phone as Dio hung up, but his expression still showed that he was surprised by the call just now.

"What? Did you get a prank call or something?" Rhodey said as he laughed after seeing Tony's face.

"No! this is much more interesting than that! The terrorist group has awoken a sleeping bear! This terrorist group sure is unlucky!" Tony said as he smirked to Rhodey and immediately stood up and walked towards the door. With Dio on board in crushing this terrorist group, the situation became much more exciting for Tony.

"Oh, god! Is it one of the Avengers?" Rhodey asked.

Tony smiled as he took a sip of his lemon juice.

"Oh shit! Who is it? Captain America? Thor? Hulk?" Rhodey asked excitedly.

"No, he is just a normal restaurant owner," Tony said casually.

"Oh my god! He is the last avenger, right? The mysterious guy? I have seen the footage of his fight! He was inhuman! The internet theorized that he was the infamous Grim Reaper from Thor's world, is that true? Are we going to see him now? Are my clothes okay to meet him? Do I have to change clothes first?" Rhodey said excitedly, annoying Tony immediately.

"Shut up, Rhodes, or I will go by myself!" Tony said annoyedly.

"Okay, okay! I only have one more question, I promise!" Rhodey said excitedly.

"Shut up, already!" Tony said as he walked a little bit faster..

290 The Villa Was Destroyed Again

When Tony walked into the restaurant with a black man, Dio immediately knew who he was. Still, Dio wasn't expecting the famous War Machine, who usually looked serious, to be this excited to meet Dio.

Dio has finally had enough of Rhodey's fanboying him around, and he immediately signaled Tony to do something about it.

"Rhodey, that is enough! We have another thing to do right now, save your starstruck for later!" Tony said as he pulled Rhodey to sit on the sofa next to him.

Rhodey immediately calmed down and stopped himself from asking any fan-based question to Dio.

"So, did you have any information about the terrorist group that we didn't know of?" Tony asked Dio curiously.

"Yeah, I know where the Mandarin base is, it was the one on this picture! But I am afraid that the Mandarin on this manor was just a fake!" Dio said annoyedly as he handed Tony the photo of the manor that become the base operation for the Mandarin.

"A fake? So, who is the real Mandarin?" Tony asked as he got confused.

"You should have known him better; after all, he came to you a while ago, and even had a good chat with Pepper," Dio said casually.

"Aldrich Killian?" Tony asked surprisedly.

"What, you knew the guy?" Rhodey asked confusedly.

"This is not good! I send Happy to spy on Killian!" Tony said as he immediately called Happily, but his call went straight to voicemail. "This is not good! Something must have happened to Happy! He is in danger!" Tony said as he immediately left Dio restaurant. Rhodey immediately followed and nodded to Dio as he understood that he had to help Tony.

However, Dio was staying at his restaurant. He knew that the black mist in Crystal could appear again in his absence. If that happened, there was no telling what incident could happen!When Tony and Rhodes finally arrived on the scene, the place was a mess! Tony immediately saw Happy lying on the ground, but thankfully he was still alive! Tony immediately called an ambulance to take Happy to the hospital for treatment.

Tony was worried as it was because of his own egotistical mistake that Happy almost died! He waited for Happy's recovery in the hospital, but soon got annoyed as a group of reporters kept pestering him about the latest bombing incident that injured Happy.

Tony finally had enough that he took his sunglasses off and immediately hold a camera for his war declaration for the Mandarin!

"Hear me out now, Mandarin! I will find you and destroy your carefully laid out plan!" Tony said to the camera confidently. Tony also gave out his villa's address on his little speech for Mandarin!The news was live, so Dio was able to see what was happening in Tony's end. He frowned as soon as Tony told the world his villa's address. Tony's action right now was utterly idiotic!

"Zeppeli! Call Tony for me!" Dio said after the news ended as Tony drove away.

"I am sorry, sir, but all communication towards Master Tony is turned off! But I can leave a voicemail, do you want me to do that, sir?" Zeppeli said in a robotic tone.

"No, there is no need! Did I have more reservations for today?" Dio asked casually.

"No, sir. In fact, all reservations for tomorrow were canceled!" Zeppeli said with his robotic voice.

Dio was annoyed beyond measure now. This was the first time since the history of him opening this restaurant that he had a day to himself as all reservations were canceled! This terrorist group was really asking for death!

"Crystal, let's go! We would have a little drive now!" Dio shouted for Crystal. He was aware that Crystal couldn't be left alone, so all he had to do is bring Crystal with him!

Crystal immediately rushed outside and eagerly jumped inside the car and fastened her seat belt without making any fuss! Dio then immediately drove towards Tony's villa as he knew that the terrorist would target it immediately.

Dio wondered how many times would Tony rebuild the villa as it was always destroyed in every single major incident!

"Stay in the car no matter what, okay!" Dio said to Crystal as he parked his car a little bit away from the villa for safety!

Crystal nodded her head as she was starting to get nervous for the guns' blazing sound in the distance!

Tony's villa was under attack, Dio had already predicted this to happen since Tony told the world his home address!

Dio immediately rushed forwards and started destroying the helicopter that bombed Tony's villa.

He immediately grabbed Pepper, Tony, and one unknown woman from inside Tony's collapsing villa.

"What are you doing here?" Tony asked Dio in the middle of combat.

"Don't you dare ask me that question! Are you out of your mind? Why are you taunting a terrorist group by giving them your address! The Hulk was probably smarter than you, and he was just a big baby!" Dio said annoyedly.

At the same time, Pepper had enough of Tony's unreasonable behavior! Obviously, the disappointment and frustration have pent up since Tony's weird behavior started!

291 Breaking!

Pepper had enough! One time, she woke up in the morning only to find Tony was sleeping next to her while wearing the Iron Man's suit! Pepper was terrified! Although she was a strong woman, there was so much that a woman could take!

Tony, who noticed that Pepper was upset and was on the verge of crying immediately held her and tried to apologize! "Pepper, I am so sorry! I didn't know it would come to this!" Tony said as he tried to calm Pepper down.

"No! you brought this to yourself, Tony! You clearly don't care about my feelings right now! I think we should take a break now! We should talk about this matter once things started to calm down!" Pepper said to Tony as she looked very sad. She thought that she could hold it in, but Tony's word just caused her mind to slip, and all the negative energy that she has been trying to hold back, burst out in the open!

In fact, Pepper wanted to ask which one was more important for Tony right now, her or his Iron Man suit! But she didn't have the heart to put Tony on the spot like that. It was ridiculous of her to be jealous of a suit of iron armour, but the reality right now was unfavourable for her!

"No, Pepper! Listen to me. I admit that after the Battle of New York, I have been acting strangely! But I only did so because I am trying to process the new information that changed my world! Gods, aliens, other dimensions, possibly a new kind of physics, and here I am on earth with my suit of iron! Do you understand how I feel? a feeling of worthlessness and helplessness!" Tony said to Pepper honestly.

"That is why I need you! You are my normal in a world full of strangeness; you are my rock that keeps me tied to reality! I love you Pepper, so please don't do this!" Tony said hopefully.

Dio saw all this unravelled in front of his eyes, although he wanted to laugh at Tony for being a cheesy man, he couldn't! The look on Tony's face was the sincerest look that he ever got to see from Tony! In fact, Dio was starting to envy Tony a little bit, for he has already had a woman that would love him unconditionally.

"Tony! Action speaks louder than words! You ignore me every night as you keep tinkering your Iron Man Suit nonstop! Am I really as needed as you said I was?" Pepper asked honestly.

"You may be right! I have put so much pressure on myself that makes me hard to fall asleep at night, but I always stayed by your side until you fall asleep, didn't I? I must make a stronger armour, Pepper! I have to do it if I want to guard my most important treasure!" Tony said sincerely.

"So what about your Iron Man armour! Am I more important than them?" Pepper asked the final question that she wanted to ask a long time ago!

"The Iron Man suit? They are a part of me! They are like my extended limbs, the only thing that could give me a sense of security!" Tony said confidently. Tony's answer made the atmosphere suddenly changed, while previously it was romantic as Tony pleaded for Pepper to stay, but now Dio knew that there is no way Pepper would stay with Tony!

Pepper was deemed to be a treasure to Tony, but the Iron Man suit was a part of him? Go figure!

Sure enough, Pepper stepped forward and held Tony's face lovingly in her hands.

"Tony! This is the first time in my heart after knowing you for so long that I believe maybe, we aren't suited for each other! While in the past, you keep changing your woman like changing clothes, I don't really mind it as I know that those women were only a passing thought for you, they would never hold your heart! But now I realize that the real rival for your love is the Iron Man suit, maybe there would be no women on this earth that could stay by your side. But that was fine. Your Iron Man suit would be there for you no matter what! They would give you the sense of security you needed and accompany you to do anything you want!" Pepper said as tears fell from her eyes.

"So, I think this is the best decision for us! You will have my resignation tomorrow, and during the time I am not there beside you, please cheer up! Because in my heart, I would always love you as you are!" Pepper said as she stepped backward and immediately left alone.

Tony was staring at Pepper retreating figure blankly, he wanted to shout for Pepper to come back, but he couldn't say anything as he didn't know how to persuade Pepper stay this time!

"By the way, I won't be here for you either! It seems friendship is also out of the question for you! Besides, this woman was working for Killian, believe it or not!" Dio said casually as he left.

Tony turned his attention abruptly to the unknown woman on the scene. He knew that this woman was strange, but he would never guess that she was working for Killian.

"Hey, think about it a little. There is no way I work for that terrorist group if I am here getting bombed, just like you!" the woman said, trying to convince Tony that she wasn't part of the terrorist group..

292 Do Not Care!

"My friend clearly told me earlier that you are working with Killian! Did you know that he was the one that razed my house to the ground just now?" Tony asked as he looked at Maya Hansen's face directly.

But Maya was silent as she didn't know what to say.

"Now I know that the man was right! You are working for Killian! I guess the bomb that they used for their terrorist activity and to destroy my house is your creation! Isn't it right?" Tony said coldly.

"But why are you here? This is the only thing that doesn't make sense to me right now! But let me guess, if the bombing failed to kill me, you would be the one to manipulate me to do your bidding! So, if I am correct, what did you want? Miss Maya Hansen!" Tony said coldly as he looked at Maya's eyes directly.

Tony was irritated by Pepper's departure, so he used Maya as the emotional punching bag to divert his attention from his broken heart.

"You are correct, but not entirely! If I say that I am here to save you from Killian, would you believe me?" Maya said as she sighed desperately."Where do you want to go? I will take you there as a courtesy!" Dio said to Pepper as he walks into his car.

"Thank you, Dio! I would like to say my thanks for saving me once again, if you didn't come here today, I am afraid I wouldn't be standing here right now!" Pepper said politely.

"Save it for later, Pepper! Let's go!" Dio said casually as he didn't really know how to deal with someone else's gratitude.

Pepper immediately get inside Dio's car, but she was immediately surprised as he saw Crystal was already on the passenger seat.

"Who is this little girl? Is she your sister?" Pepper asked as she opens the back door.

Crystal no longer looked like the Crystal who first came to Dio's house. Thanks to [Pearl Jam, Crystal's body was already at the point where her own family wouldn't be able to recognize her anymore. Now, Crystal looked more feminine and beautiful right now!

"Yeah, she is my sister! But I bet Tony would have asked if she was my daughter!" Dio said as he smiled to Pepper, but Pepper's face immediately saddened as Dio mentioned Tony's name. Dio realised that he has just made a mistake!

"I am sorry; his name probably the last thing that you want to hear now!" Dio said as he apologized to Pepper.

"There is no need for you to apologize for that! Tony would always be like that. There is nothing we could do to change that! I am more worried about this little girl that you left alone in the car! The situation back then was scary! You could cause trauma to the child Dio!" Pepper said as she reprimanded Dio a little bit.

Dio knows that Tony would fuck up his relation with Pepper at some point, and Dio was eager to see the drama that would ensue between the two, but he clearly didn't know what to do now as he thought of Pepper as a friend!

As to clear the awkward situation, Dio turned on the radio so that they could listen to music instead! But, Dio was finally fed up after hearing the song that was played on every single radio station was a sad song!

Dio finally arrived at Pepper's apartment complex after an awkward drive. This was her home before she moved in with Tony, it still belonged to her, so the best course of action was to use this place once again. As she left Dio's car, Pepper once again thanked Dio for doing so much for her. She even told Dio that he was a good man and that he must try to find someone to love completely!

Dio swore that Pepper's behaviour was sad! She was affected by her own decision to leave Tony's side! But for once, he couldn't do anything about this situation.

After dropping Pepper off, Dio immediately returned to his restaurant once again. Even though there would be no other customer for today and tomorrow, Dio still wanted to open the restaurant, for there might be some customers coming in the end!

He has already told everything that Tony needed to defeat Killian, so there was nothing else that Dio needed to do for Tony.. The only thing left was whether Tony could deal with the Extremist Virus that Killian has developed! But he knew that Tony would eventually find an answer for this, but because of that, Dio wondered, would the time Gem amplify the [World]'s power?

293 The Trivial Thing

After returning to the restaurant, Dio immediately noticed that Crystal was acting a little bit weird.

"What's the matter, Crystal? Are you hungry? Did you have anything to buy?" Dio asked casually.

But Crystal just shook her heads and ran away toward the closet to take cleaning tools and started cleaning the restaurant. Dio was confused as he remembered that Crystal had already cleaned the restaurant before they headed towards Tony's house.

Unbeknown to Dio, Crystal was having a hard time to calm herself down! Dio has admitted that Crystal was his sister to some stranger! Did Dio really mean that? Or was it just a convenient answer so that the stranger stop asking more questions? Could someone like her really become Dio's little sister?

Crystal was lost on her own thoughts as she questioned everything from Dio's perspective!At the same time, the media has found out about the Attack at Tony's villa. The media reporter flocked towards Tony's lake view villa to interview him for his word on this matter. But instead of having a casual report, the news blew out! The Iron Man, a hero who was part of the Avenger that constantly fought against criminals, was beaten by a group of terrorists!

The public was clearly disappointed by Tony's lacklustre action. Tony's provocation against the terrorist group earlier was viewed as idiotic and reckless. People started to talk trash about him on the internet as they felt extremely disappointed by Tony's action. These people on the internet surely were crueller than the terrorist group!

Because of the internet, people were starting to get anxious, and panic began to spread like a virus on the premise that the superheroes couldn't win against the terrorist group! The phenomenon escalated until Pepper was forced to make a public announcement to clarify that Tony wasn't defeated by the terrorist group, he was currently preparing to fight off against the terrorist and that he would be seen in public again soon!

Pepper's word surely brought some assurance to the public, but unfortunately, there were some people who doubted Pepper's word. Like why Tony never showed up in public or at least came out with the Iron Man suit so that he could be safe!

In such a time, Pepper immediately threw her feeling aside and called Tony to make an appearance to the public. But as the public predicted, Tony didn't even pick up Pepper's call! Pepper immediately blamed herself for what was happening right now. She thought that maybe Tony's disappearance was because of her words at that time!

At the same time, the terrorist appeared again on Tv! The Mandarin told the public directly that he has successfully killed the Iron Man and already threw his body to the sea! Mandarin also told the public, that was the reason why Tony was nowhere to be seen for a long time!

The Mandarin then created even more chaos as he made an announcement that his terrorist group would attack the president next!

The public was immediately silenced after Mandarin made such a declaration. They were worried about who could save America from this terrorist group as even a superhero was already defeated! For a while, the internet has sent their thoughts and prayer for the safety of America, completely forgotten about Tony's whereabouts as he was declared dead by the Mandarin!

The president immediately ordered Colonel Rhodes to catch the terrorist group before they were able to actualize their plan to attack the White House! The president himself was having a hard time deciding whether to secure himself on a secret base or stand strong inside the White House to show the world that the Americans wouldn't let a group of terrorists deter them!

"Rhodes! A new order has come! You are about to destroy the terrorist compound in Pakistan!" the Air Force commander told Rhodey as he gave him a new mission.

"Pakistan?" Rhodey said as he frowned at the new mission's objective.

"Yes, Mr. President was the one who directly gave you this order, he hopes that you could put an end to all this madness!" the commander said strictly.

"I see!" Rhodey said as he immediately prepared to go to Pakistan, he couldn't refuse the president's order, even though he knew that this information was not the same information that he heard from Dio earlier! And so, with the Iron Patriot, he flew toward the location that was already given to him beforehand.

At the same time, Captain America and the rest of the Avengers requested to Nick that they should get involved on destroying the Terrorist group, but Nick immediately rejected this proposal as he said that the SHIELD wasn't the American police, so the terrorist attack wasn't any of their business!

294 Restaurant Was Attacked

This is the real mindset of Nick Fury! Everything aside from earth's safety was trivial for him! If there was a terrorist attack, as long as they didn't use a nuclear-powered weapon or something of that calibre, he wouldn't care! After all, Tony was fighting them too. There was no need for the SHIELD to get involved here!

"Is this alright, Director? The terrorist doesn't seem to be an ordinary human; the agents that we sent to infiltrate their base almost couldn't return!" Coulson said as he stood beside Nick Fury in Fury's office.

"It's just a cheap trick! We have to focus on restoring New York to what it used to be, if not better! after all, even if Tony failed, that man wouldn't let the terrorist won!" Fury said confidently.

"Shoot, I forgot that man was also involved now! He loves money so much that a little setback would set him off!" Coulson said as he laughed at his own forgetfulness!

"Nice to have you finally remember that! Now go back to work, I don't want to miss anything that could be a threat to the planet!" Fury said commandingly.

Coulson nodded and immediately walked out of Fury's office.The next day, Dio was still annoyed that there was still no reservation at his restaurant. In the middle of the day, Pepper came to Dio's restaurant while looking kind of tired herself!

"I see, your restaurant has received the impact of the terrorist attack on New York too! No wonder you came to save Tony yesterday!" Pepper said as she sat on the lounge sofa!

"You see, the rich and wealthy are totally afraid of the probability that they could be dead if they come to New York, especially a crowded place like this Avenger Building Area. They all cancelled their reservation just like that!" Dio said annoyedly.

"If you told them that your place was one of the safest places in New York, they might reconsider you know!" Pepper said as she gave her advice.

"I couldn't do that! My words would have no immediate proof to them! Even if I send the picture of the bunker to them, I doubt that they want to risk it!" Dio said helplessly.

"Well, that was a good place to start! After all, there might be people out there who want to reserve a spot at your restaurant after hearing that statement comes from the infamous mysterious grim reaper himself!" Pepper said as she giggled.

"Wow, you already know too much, Ms. Pepper! I am afraid I have to kill you to hide my identity!" Dio said as he laughed along with Pepper.

"Did you hear any news from Tony?" Pepper asked as she was finally done laughing.

"I didn't hear anything from him after that day! But don't worry too much! I believe that he is currently giving a hard time to those terrorists! I know that as soon as he defeated that terrorist group, he would come running back to you!" Dio said as he served Pepper a glass of water!

Pepper immediately drank the water and sighed in satisfaction.

"Your glass of water never failed to satisfy me!" Pepper said.

"Of course! It's my trade, after all!" Dio said as he smiled at Pepper.

"Well, since you are free! I would like to dine here, please! I will leave the treatment to you. I would trust your decision!" Pepper said excitedly as she heard Dio's boasting his water.

"Thank god! Finally, a customer! I will give you a 90% discount for now!" Dio said thankfully.

"You don't need to do that for me, you know! I would be glad if you can give me the water earlier!" Pepper said shyly.

"Of course! You can have another glass of water!" Dio said as he refilled Pepper's glass.

"Just a glass? Why are you so stingy to me?" Pepper said as she pretended to be insulted.

"You see, you would be full of water before the dish even gets a chance to shine." Dio said as he laughed a little bit. "But sure! Help yourself! But don't cry when your stomach is already full when the food arrives, okay?" Dio said casually as he put back the water pot on the table and walked towards the kitchen.

Pepper shrugged and drank a couple more glass after Dio left, and she immediately restrained herself from getting another glass of water as she hadn't come to Dio's restaurant for a while. She knew that as soon as Dio's dish hit the table, she wouldn't be able to control her appetite!

But at the same time, a man parked his jeep in front of the Avenger Building, and a woman immediately entered the car.

"The target is not inside, I figured that she's just here to eat!" the woman said to the man annoyedly.

"She might be eating inside that restaurant over there, I heard that the owner was a close friend of Stark!" the man said indifferently.

"Should we also go inside? I am starving!" the woman said casually.

"Sure! It might go according to our plan!" the man said indifferently.

The man and the woman soon walked out of the jeep and trudged forward to Dio's restaurant."Sir! Two guests detected! A man and a woman, might they come in?" Zeppeli said as it gave Dio notice of the new guests.

Dio frowned as he didn't seem to remember receiving any reservation for today. Still, he gave Zeppeli permission to let the two people enter his restaurant as he knew that as soon as they saw the price on the wall, they would immediately turn back!

But after a while!

"Sir! I think you should go out there! There is something off with the two guests!" Zeppeli said urgently.

Dio was startled and immediately checked his phone that was connected to the surveillance camera that he has already installed throughout the restaurant!

"Fuck! This is bad!" Dio said as he immediately rushed towards the door. But he was late once again! The man already broke open his door to the dining room with a blast!

Pepper was shocked after hearing an explosion in a close distance like that! But the woman and the man immediately sensed danger from across their entrance, and the one that they saw was Dio in his chef's outfit!

"You're going to pay for that! You will regret ever crossing path with me!" Dio said as his rage peaked. He might look calm from the outside, but someone who could sense negative energy will be able to feel Dio's malice!

The man and the woman were startled after seeing a chef came out of the kitchen, looking terrifying as he stood with two knives on each hand.

But then they realised that this man was probably just a normal chef that was furious after seeing his restaurant was blown apart, so the woman immediately stepped forward while thinking that she would catch Dio's knife!

295 Broken

Dio immediately threw his knife at the woman!

Even though the knife was just an ordinary kitchen knife, Dio had already infused his Hamon Energy to the knife, making it incredibly durable and sharp!

The woman tried to melt the knife that was thrown at her, but sadly her Extremis Virus's power wasn't enough to melt Dio's knife, so the knife cut through to the woman's hands easily! She immediately screamed as her hands were badly injured!

She didn't understand why her power couldn't melt the knife, but she knew that the wound would be gone in a couple of seconds. Before she was injected by the Extremist Virus, she was missing an arm, but as she was injected by the Extremist Virus, her missing arm grew back! She knew that she had the Super Healing Factor from the Extremist Virus, so she knew that she didn't need to be afraid of anything!

But the pain was still there! She was determined to let the chef know her dissatisfaction personally!

But unfortunately for her, she picked a wrong opponent this time! All her power was just a joke in front of Dio. It wasn't even a joke that was worth laughing at! Dio immediately activated his [White Album] ability for a second, and the unfortunate girl was immediately frozen in place! Dio immediately punched her straight on the chest, shattering her to million pieces!

After seeing the horrifying scene in front of him, the man was terrified! He subconsciously stepped back to escape! After he was injected with the Extremist Virus, the man hasn't seen anything that could make him feel fear. This was the first time he saw the woman who had the same kind of ability as him being shattered into pieces!

"Who are you? what have you done?" The man asked in fear. The man's skin was flickering in bright orange colour, he knew that his anxiety could make him blow up at any moment now!

"You dare to ask who I am after you make a mess inside my restaurant? Not only you arrogantly walked in without a proper understanding of my place, but you also destroyed many high-end pricey techs! you only need to know one thing, this knife in my hands would be your death!" Dio said as he was annoyed and furious at the same time.

"Stay back! Believe me, I will blow up if you come any closer!" the man said anxiously.

Dio didn't care; he quickly transformed the knife in his hands into a drill and walked towards the man indifferently.

"You clearly don't understand anything; then we should die together!" The man said as his skin flickered in dark orange colour.

"I hate to disappoint you, but I am a very busy person! I am afraid I don't have the time to play!" Dio said as he immediately used [White Album] once again and held the man's head. He immediately used the [White Album]'s ability once again, and the man was instantly frozen solid!

Dio immediately used his knife that he has transformed into a drill and stabbed the man rapidly! As the man was frozen solid, the drill made a dozen holes on his body! The man was clearly dead from the absolute zero ability, but Dio wasn't content before he destroyed the enemy completely!

"Fuck! Now I have to clean up the place all over again!" Dio said in annoyance.

Dio immediately remembered that Pepper was still there, and he immediately turned back his attention towards her.

"Shit, I am sorry! I forgot you are still here. I hope the scene just now doesn't affect your appetite!" Dio said hopefully.

"I hope so too, but this scene definitely affects my appetite!" Pepper said as she tried to step away from the mess on the floor. But unfortunately for her, she stepped on the woman's eye that was scattered on the floor! She couldn't hold it in anymore and run towards the wall and immediately vomited!

"I am sorry, this is definitely my fault for not considering your presence." Dio said apologetically to Pepper. It was truly his responsibility to make sure that his guest was comfortable while they were his establishment, but as he was furious, he forgot about that completely!

Dio immediately pulled out his phone and immediately called someone to explain what happened in his restaurant as he waited for Pepper to finish vomiting.

When she was finally done, Dio immediately hung up and approached her carefully.

"It seems your meal for today has to be cancelled, I am sorry, but I think it's better for you to return home and get some rest." Dio said carefully.

"You are right. I feel light-headed now. I will find someone to rebuild your restaurant back to what it was before." Pepper said as she trudged across the shattered glass door and human remains toward her car.

"No. it has nothing to do with you. Clearly, you are just here to enjoy your meal but interrupted by a bunch of scumbags! This is just a bad luck on our end, and I've already called someone to clean this mess up!" Dio said casually to Pepper.

"No, it clearly has something to do with me! I knew that man. He is Killian's bodyguard or maybe his driver. I've already met him once when Killian came to meet Tony earlier! Don't worry, the constructor who usually handles Tony's house construction is almost done rebuilding the villa. I will immediately tell him to work here as soon as possible!" Pepper said determinedly.

"Well, if you've already made up your mind, I am sorry to trouble you once again. But if you are sure that the man earlier was coming to get you, it's better to stay with me for the moment." Dio said as he wanted to do good for Pepper..

296 Make a Promise

Pepper considered Dio's invitation to let her stay there. She knew that if she were captured by the terrorist group, Tony would have a hard time crushing them as he would have to consider Pepper's safety first!

But 10 minutes later, a van immediately stopped outside Dio's restaurant, and after a quick phone call, Dio let the people inside the van to come inside. They looked at the mess on the floor, and without any change of expression, nor any word spoken, they immediately put their mask and gloves on.

These people were the Damage Control team from SHIELD that were tasked to clean the scene after the confrontation between the SHIELD's agent or, in this case, superheroes confrontation with the villain!

They immediately put all the body pieces into a bag and removed all the bloodstains with a special blood remover and even sprayed some natural scent to finish up cleaning Dio's restaurant! While they were working, not a single word came out of their mouth, this was truly perfection as they were as professional as they might come!

"Who are those people just now?" Pepper asked curiously.

"They were SHIELD's personnel. They were tasked to clean my place down after I talk with Nick Fury on the phone." Dio said casually. Pepper nodded her as she understood what the SHIELD was. In fact, this wasn't her first contact with the said mysterious organization!

"Okay, and I've already contacted the people that decorate your restaurant last time, and they will come here soon!" Pepper said politely.

"Well, if that's the case, you better go back inside to hide." Dio said casually.

"Hide where?" Pepper asked confusedly.

"Tony never told you, did he? He went around my back and designed a shelter beneath the restaurant, Nuclear Fallout Shelter! You can use that place to hide yourself for a while." Dio said casually. "Here, let me show you where it is." Dio said as he led the way to the vault.

"I am very sorry that you have to go through this kind of trouble only because they were after me." Pepper said apologetically.

"It's okay, Pepper. They were messing with me too, you know. Because of them, I lost my customer, and now they make it personal by attacking my place!" Dio said, a little bit annoyed, but not at Pepper. He was annoyed due to the fact that the terrorists were too confident in their own power!

"But please be careful dealing with them Dio, I know that you are strong, but there is still an unknown factor that can harm you out there. And if you ever see Tony, please bring him back safely!" Pepper said hopefully.

As Dio and Pepper walked inside towards the Dining Area, Crystal ran towards Dio with a concerned look on her face.

"Your sister is here too?" Pepper asked as she was surprised that Dio's sister is here too! She didn't know the truth behind Crystal's identity, and Dio was hoping to keep it that way!

"Well, Will went on his way to pursue his dream to be a rapper. So, she was staying here to clean, sort of replacing Will in a way. I hope you can look after her for a while. She tends to have a nightmare at night." Dio said casually to Pepper.

Pepper nodded her head as she wouldn't refuse such a small request; after all, she was beginning to like the girl, personality-wise.

"Let's go. I will show you my room. Crystal, you come too, okay!" Dio said as he led the way towards the vault. "Zeppeli, please open the vault!" Dio said commandingly.

"I am sorry, Master Dio. Mr. Stark set up the program so that it will only open after saying the correct password!" Zeppeli the A.I said robotically.

"Didn't I tell him to change it before?" Dio said confusedly. Dio was a little bit annoyed that the password was still intact, he hated it to the core!

"Yes, but Mr. Stark changed it again as he left through the backchannel." Zeppeli said indifferently.

"Fuck, that shithead keep doing things to annoys me!" Dio said annoyedly.

"I love Iron Man!" Dio said annoyedly, the wall suddenly shifted and the door that would lead towards the vault immediately appeared. But Pepper's focus wasn't on the door just now. She was trying hard not to laugh at the hilarious password just now!

She knew that Tony would never stop doing these kind of things to Dio as his personality really thrived on seeing the annoyance on others. They began to descend after entering the lift, signalling that they were going deep underground.

As soon as they arrived at the vault, Pepper was surprised! The interior of that place was luxurious! That place didn't look like an emergency shelter at all. It looked more like a bachelor escape room!

"I am going out for a bit. Please stay here until I come back." Dio said warmly to Crystal.

"I don't want to stay here! Can I go with you? I will stay in the car, I promise!" Crystal said hopefully.

"This time is different! Let's make a deal then, as long as you stay awake here and wait for me to return, I will take you to the Disney land next Sunday." Dio said warmly.

"I don't like playgrounds." Crystal said as she frowned at her own memories.

"Then I will let you have one wish! But the rule is, it must be under my own capabilities! How about this?" Dio asked Crystal curiously.

"Okay, I will stay awake until you come back!" Crystal said excitedly..

297 Vibrating Battlegear

Pepper was confused about why Dio didn't let Crystal fall asleep until he returned home, but she knew that it was private, and so she would take care of Crystal until Dio comes back again.At the same time as Pepper was attacked. The President of the United States of America was also being attacked by Mandarin's terrorist group! Thankfully, the Iron Patriot was there to save the president and knock the terrorist out of the airplane!

Meanwhile, Tony was attacking the terrorist's hideout to rescue the people who were also kidnapped by the terrorist group. But Jarvis immediately notified Stark that there was something wrong with Iron Patriot armour as it was flying out of the path that Rhodey has marked to help Tony out. There was someone else who had the technology to hijack the Iron Patriot armour!

Tony tracked Rhodey's location and immediately flew towards his location!Night immediately come, and the Rocks Enterprise that has been abandoned after a serious oil spill incident had become the terrorist group's base camp. Killian and all his followers who have undergone the Extremist Virus procedure were waiting for Tony's arrival. Killian knew that there was no way Tony wouldn't come there tonight.

Taking advantage of the night, Tony and Rhodey sneaked into a boat nearby the terrorist's base. But unfortunately, Killian's man saw Tony coming and immediately shot him with his gun. The spotlight immediately flashed towards Tony and Rhodes's location.

"It seems no one in the Stark Family can teach this man about a proper etiquette of visiting someone else's place!" Killian said as he shot another bullet at Tony. After Maya's betrayal, Killian didn't care about Tony's well-being anymore. He knew that the Extremist Virus was unstable, but he didn't care anymore.

The battle escalated after Tony called out all his suits that were controlled by Jarvis to fight alongside him. The place instantly lit up like fireworks! But not too far from the terrorist's base, Dio was coming at high speed from the sea! While Aokiji of One Piece could ride his bike on the sea as he froze them, Dio could use his [White Album] to skate on the ice!"You are weak, Stark! You are nothing more than a broken armour that I can melt into a pile of scraps!" Killian said tauntingly. He was annoyed at Tony as he kept avoiding a direct confrontation against Killian and kep running around while also ordering his unmanned armour to block Killian's path!

"Wow, you sure are cocky! Let's try this instead!" Tony said as he called his last armour and immediately put it on! This was the Iron Man Armor: Mark XLII!

Killian immediately rushed towards Tony as he knew that all of Tony's Iron Man Armours were weak against the Extremist's lava-like ability. However, Tony wasn't moving! He waited for Killian to come while preparing a martial art stance of his own. But sadly, Tony never really practiced martial arts except for several times Dio made him do it!

Obviously, Killian, who has received thorough training in a martial art, easily fended off Tony's uncoordinated attack. As he saw the opening, Killian immediately punched Tony's chest while having his Fist heated to the point were an iron would easily melt! But his punch didn't do anything to Tony's armour! In fact, Tony didn't even feel the shockwave of Killian's punch!

Tony immediately took the opportunity to attack as he saw that Killian was surprised that his heat didn't do anything! Tony punched Killian straight on his jaw and made Killian stumble backward a little bit. But Tony knew that the punch wouldn't do anything as the Extremist Virus have the enhanced healing power too!

"Tony, I swear I will kill you painfully!" Killian said as he was getting furious at Tony!

Killian walked towards Tony while burning the wall beside him to prevent Tony from escaping! As he came closer, Killian then threw Iron Man to the ground and held him while making sure that Tony was heating up below him!

"You are done, Tony! How do you feel about being cooked alive! I will serve your meat well done to Pepper later!" Killian said furiously.

"Not good! Pepper doesn't like well-done steak!" Tony said as he pulled out a hidden knife from behind his palm and sliced both of Killian's arms with it!

Killian spontaneously stood up and screamed in pain, the pain was unbearable, but the Extremist Virus didn't allow him to faint!

"This is not perfect, but it looks pretty good for now!" Tony said as he flashed the Adamantium Knife that he was using to cut Killian just now.. This was the secret behind this armour, it was durable thanks to the Vibranium Alloy, plus his weapon was extremely sharp thanks to the Adamantium Alloy!

298 Hand Up And Down

In the Battle of New York, Tony didn't use this armour because of its main weakness! It was only useful for close combat! Tony didn't need a Vibranium coated armour for ranged combat as he could always dodge anything. Plus, he still couldn't find a better use for Adamantium Alloy except for a sharp weapon!

Because of this weakness too, Tony has been keeping this armour hidden until now since he believed that now was the right time to use it! Killian was using a power that derived from heat, so the use of Vibranium coated armour was a must as the Vibranium would absorb the energy that was produced from heat and transformed it into raw energy!

And as Killian also used close combat, he wouldn't have any chance to block Tony's attack using his knife made from Adamantium! Even if Killian could heal himself numerous amounts of time, there would be a limit to that ability! There was no way that a human would be thatr invincible. Maybe if Tony cut Killian's head off, Killian would finally dead!

But Tony wasn't in a rush. It seemed like he wanted to vent off some of his frustration to Killian!

Knowing that he had no easy means to win, Killian immediately retreated while Tony was chasing after him, reversing the cat and mouse game that they were playing from the start! Tony would frequently catch up to Killian and chopped some Killian's limbs, but Tony wouldn't end Killian's life just yet!

"Blow him up!" Killian shouted as he became desperate to get away from Tony. He didn't understand why Tony suddenly became so strong! The people injected by the Extremist Virus knew that this was their end game, so they were already prepared to die! A bunch of Killian's followers quickly hugged Tony and suddenly exploded, creating a sea of fire that would instantly kill any normal person!

But unfortunately for Killian, Tony had already prepared for this! While Killian thought that Tony was finally dead, a flash of twirling light suddenly shot towards Killian at great speed! This was the Adamantium knife that Tony used earlier! It successfully penetrated Killian's chest in one go, pinning him to the wall! Then Tony emerged from the raging fire as if nothing happened.

Killian was surprised that the explosion earlier had no effect on Tony, and so he tried to escape once more! He tried to melt the knife on his chest to get away, but no matter how hard he tried, the knife wasn't affected!

"Fuck this!" Killian said as he slid off the knife to the side, cutting half of his body! But the regenerative power from the Extremist Virus immediately healed his body once more. But, because he took too long to escape, Tony was already closing in and held him to the ground.

"You can't kill me, Stark! If I die, Pepper will also die with me!" Killian said as he laughed hysterically.

"What did you just say? What have you done to Pepper?" Tony asked as he shook Killian's body rudely.

"Did you honestly think that I only want to kidnap the President? I've already dispatched some men to capture Pepper while you were busy saving Mr. President earlier!" Killian said as he laughed.

"Bastard!" Tony said as he pounded Killian's face in frustration.

"Kill me, Stark! See if I lied!" Killian said while still laughing hysterically like a maniac. Tony raised his fist once again but failed to land his punch as there was a chance that Killian was telling the truth! But suddenly, a familiar voice was heard.

"Don't listen to him, Stark! Pepper is safe at my place!" Dio said casually as he walked towards Stark and Killian.

"Dio? What? Why are you here? and by the way, what is that shirt you are wearing?" Tony asked curiously. The shirt that Tony mentioned was none other than the [White Album] armour, it may look bizarre, but it worked!

"Make it quick, Stark! I still have a dinner appointment later!" Dio said anxiously as Tony was talking too much.

"Impossible! There is no way you can kill an extremist so easily!" Killian said to Dio as he gritted his teeth furiously.

"Listen to this guy, Dio. He has been spending too much on his small pond that he doesn't know that there are still many people more powerful than him!" Tony said sarcastically. "Did you know why I made this armour, Killian? That is because none of my armour would fare against this guy! He could destroy my armour completely in mere seconds, I tell you! now, I need to apologize to Pepper after this!" Tony said to Killian sarcastically.

"No, you can't kill me, Tony! He is lying!" Killian said desperately, but it didn't work as Tony immediately slashed his neck and lopped Killian's head off into the sea! The extremist virus sure could regenerate missing limb, but as the head was removed, it could no longer work!

"Is Pepper really safe?" Tony asked Dio hopefully.

"Well, she was worried for sure! She was lucky you know, if she didn't come to my Restaurant earlier, she might have been captured by the terrorist!" Dio said casually.

"Well, I owe you one then!" Tony said annoyedly.

"So, does that mean my debt is paid?" Dio asked as he smirked to Tony..

299 Something Happened

After all the terrorists were taken care of, Rhodes brought the president back to the White House, while Tony and Dio drove to the restaurant. But in the middle of the way back, Dio's phone started to ring.

"What's the matter, Zeppeli?" Dio asked as he was curious why Zeppeli was calling him like this.

"Sir! You have to come back immediately!" Zeppeli said in his robotic voice.

"Tony! Do you mind putting the pedal to the metal?" Dio said quickly as a bad premonition made him anxious.

Tony nodded and immediately stepped on the gas to rush them back to the restaurant. As they arrived at the restaurant, Tony and Dio immediately rushed towards the vault. But all Dio saw was Crystal watching some Tv Program while Pepper was fast asleep on the couch beside Crystal!

"Is she your daughter?" Tony asked while smirking tauntingly. Dio was already prepared for this kind of comment, so he just ignored it!

Dio immediately shifted his attention back to Crystal, for he had to know what happened. "Crystal, what did you do while I am gone? Can you tell me in detail?" Dio asked Crystal carefully.

"Nothing, I am just playing some video games and then watched some Tv shows." Crystal said innocently. On the other side, Tony immediately ran towards Pepper and sighed in relief as soon as he knew that Pepper was just asleep. Tony then picked her up to move her to his house.

"Tony! I think its better for Pepper to stay here for a while. It may be dangerous for her out there right now!" Dio said casually after he saw that Tony was trying to move Pepper.

"What? Do you think I couldn't protect her?" Tony asked challengingly. However, Dio was just looking at Tony while raising one of his brows.

"Okay, I know that the last time was all my fault! But I will not let it happen again! After all, the danger was already eliminated! But I advise you to stay back! I know that Pepper and I have a few rough patches, but I am not giving up on her!" Tony said coldly.

Dio just shrugged his shoulder as he didn't have any intention to steal Pepper from Tony. But before leaving, Tony sure left some sarcastic word behind.

"You know, you better keep the relationship with a minor like this under the rug! It's illegal! If you ever get caught, I don't mind providing you the best lawyer to try to reduce your sentence later!" Tony said as he left with Pepper on his arm.

Dio just gave him his middle finger as he was not in the mood to argue. But as soon as Tony and Pepper left, Dio then immediately shifted his attention back to Crystal.

"Did the kind aunt earlier accompany you playing some games? Did you really stay awake while I am gone?" Dio asked curiously.

"Yeah, we do many things together, but I am afraid that she would an accident will befall her or something like that, so I keep my interaction to a bare minimum!" Crystal said confidently.

"Okay, so what do you want me to do for your reward?" Dio asked curiously. Crystal suddenly became shy and stopped talking altogether.

"If you can't decide now, it's okay. just save it for later. This promise I made would always be valid!" Dio said warmly. Crystal nodded and immediately headed back up to her own room. When she entered her room, she immediately fell into the pillow while sighing. She couldn't muster enough courage to tell Dio what she really wanted, but she hoped that she could have the confidence to tell Dio in the future!After sending Crystal back to her room, Dio stayed in the vault while watching the surveillance tape of the time he wasn't here. Sure enough, everything Crystal said was true! Pepper was trying to bond with Crystal, but sadly, Crystal was playing hard to get! The weird part began while they were playing games together. After some yawning, Pepper suddenly fell asleep! Then Crystal started to shiver like she was cold while making a horrified face occasionally!

Zeppeli clearly saw this abnormality and immediately reported back to Dio by calling him early on. Dio was a little bit surprised. This meant that Crystal was falling asleep with her eyes open! That also meant that the Black Mist from earlier was a sentient being that worked differently than Crystal's mind.

Sensing that an accident was prone to happen, Dio immediately ordered Zeppeli to cancel all the restaurant appointments for the next three days to ensure that the accident wouldn't befall the unsuspecting customers.

The next thing that fell under his concern was Pepper. She fell asleep in a strange kind of way. There was no doubt that she was under the black mist's influence at that time! He wondered whether he should warn her of the upcoming accident or not. But then again, he decided not to as he didn't want Tony to have the wrong idea.

Now that he has already taken all the precautions, he wanted to know what the black mist had in store for him!

300 Unimaginable Disaster

The next day, Tony came to Pepper's office with a bunch of flowers in his hand.

"Hi, beautiful! I have booked a seat at your favourite restaurant! we can go now if you like." Tony said romantically. It might seem that Tony and Pepper have already made up last night based on this conversation, but the truth was that wasn't the case! Tony still must prove to Pepper that he wouldn't be solely devoted to the Iron Man Suit! If Pepper ever felt that Tony hasn't changed his ways, she would leave immediately!

"Tony, I don't think we should do this! We still have many things to do! In fact, you have an appointment with a reporter at 2.P.M later!" Pepper said with a sigh.

"Oh, come on, but we should eat lunch all the same! Don't we have to tend to ourselves more than before?!" Tony said to persuade Pepper.

Pepper sighed once again and nodded her head as she knew that Tony would persuade her no matter what! But Pepper couldn't go too far so she decided to give Tony a different option.

"I only have an hour for lunch, Tony, and my favourite restaurant is literally on the other side of the city! Can we eat at Dio's today? I have lunch that was botched yesterday. He has already agreed to let me have one free reservation any time! And I also want to thank him again for rescuing me yesterday!" Pepper said excitedly.

Tony immediately frowned as he heard Dio's name once again from Pepper's mouth. This morning Tony was awoken quite early because Pepper said Dio's name in her sleep! Tony was instantly overwhelmed by jealousy!

"Why go there? Why did you want to eat at his place? well, his food is good, but why do we need to go there now?" Tony asked curiously. Tony's rational thought told him that there would be nothing between Pepper and Dio as he trusted them both, but his heart couldn't say the same.

"Well, for saving me yesterday. The terrorist attack, remember?" Pepper said confusedly. She knew that Tony was acting a little bit weird today. It almost seemed like Tony wasn't letting Pepper meet Dio!

After hearing Pepper's word, Tony should've known better, Dio has saved Pepper from danger countless times, which also included saving Tony from many immediate dangers, but as his heart was filled with jealousy, Tony found himself unable to think straight!

"Let's go, Tony! I want to eat Dio's food again! I love Dio's dishes!" Pepper said as she walked towards the door.

Tony sighed and loosened his fist that he unconsciously made while the thought 'I love Dio …' that came out from Pepper's mouth kept repeating in his mind like a broken tape!

"Tony! What's the matter? You are weird today." Pepper said curiously. Tony was standing in the middle of the room while she was already at the door; this wasn't Tony's usual self at all!

"No, its nothing! Come on, let's go!" Tony said as he snapped back from his thoughts.

Pepper felt that there was something wrong with Tony, but she couldn't exactly figure out what was wrong with him, and so she brushed that thought aside and started walking out of the building towards Dio's restaurant that was literally across the street!

But once Pepper and Dio arrived at the front of the restaurant, they were surprised to see that the sign 'Closed for Three days' was hung on the door. Tony sighed in relief after seeing this sign, but Pepper was frowning as she encountered something unusual once more.

"It seems he choose to take some time off! Well, perhaps a sandwich would do just fine. I know a good sandwich place nearby, should we go there?" Tony said casually.

"No, wait! This is not like Dio at all! He wouldn't close the restaurant willingly like this! I will try calling him first!" Pepper said worriedly.

"Why did you have his number? Did you know him that well again?" Tony asked jealously.

"What are you saying, Tony? Aren't we all friends with him? Why wouldn't I have his number?" Pepper said confusedly. Tony was confused too, he didn't understand why he had to badmouth Dio, but his pride was also preventing him from stopping!

"Friends with a cook? Are you kidding me?" Tony said harshly.

"Tony, stop! What are you talking about right now? Did you hit your head yesterday?" Pepper asked rather concernedly.

"Hit my head? No! This is all because I wake up this morning hearing you saying his name in your sleep, instead of my name! did you find his bed comfortable enough?" Tony said harshly once again, but as soon as he let the word slip, he immediately regretted it, especially after he saw that Pepper was holding back her tears.

Tony immediately stepped forward to console Pepper, but Pepper immediately rejected Tony's reaching arm!

"Save it, Tony! I never thought that you thought that lowly of me! If I knew better, I should have left you alone to begin with!" Pepper said with a sad tear falling from her eyes.

But at the same time, a figure jumped out of a van and ran towards Dio and Pepper quickly! Pepper, who was the one that spotted this strange sighting, warned Tony of the danger!

301 Road Roller!

Tony was attacked by a surviving member of the Extremist Group under Killian's leadership! He was away during the big battle, and once he found out that Killian was dead and the Extremist Group was already crushed, he lost his way! After all, he knew that the Extremist Virus had no antidote! It took time, but he eventually would explode into a million pieces!

And so, he quietly waited for Tony to show himself, and to his surprise, Tony was really coming to the restaurant with his girlfriend to boot! So, once he saw that Tony was arguing with his girlfriend, he immediately rushed towards Tony in an attempt to blow himself up when he got close enough!

At the same time, after hearing Pepper's warning, Tony immediately pulled the Iron Man's arm out of his watch and immediately aimed it behind him! But something unfortunate happened, the terrorist slipped after stepping into a can, and Tony's shot missed!

The terrorist rushed towards Pepper as he knew that he wouldn't win against Tony anymore, but as soon as he got close to Pepper, a figure suddenly showed up and kicked him on his chest, flinging him away from Pepper like a rag doll! Tony immediately rushed toward the terrorist and stunned the guy for safety.

But as soon as he turned back to see Pepper's condition, he was surprised to see Dio was already there to cover for Pepper! Dio himself only came out after receiving Pepper's call. He never thought that the terrorist's remnant was still out there! The first thought that crossed Dio's mind was that the black mist yesterday was aiming for Pepper!

However, something unexpected immediately happened! Tony turned Dio around and immediately punched him with his Iron Man's fist!

"What are you doing, Tony!" Dio said annoyedly as Tony's punch didn't affect him in the slightest for Dio always shielded his body with Hamon Energy!

"Tony! Are you out of your mind!" Pepper said as she was surprised that Tony would do something like this. But Tony ignored Pepper and once again rushed towards Dio, at the same time, Dio knew that this was real! Tony was really going to fight him!

"Tony! Calm down! We should solve this with civilized manner and talk things through!" Dio said reasonably.

"There is no need to talk things through here! it was obvious in my eyes that you are a snake!" Tony said furiously as he called down the rest of his armour and immediately clad it!

"What is this, Tony! What are you thinking? Are you under someone's control or something?" Dio asked as he frowned some more, he didn't understand what Tony was so mad about! He couldn't attack Tony as he knew that there were so many people watching right now, so he focused on dodging Tony's attack.

"Did you know, Dio? I specially made this armour to deal with you in mind! I knew that with your attitude and personality, we would cross paths someday!" Tony said furiously as he tried to hit Dio with his fist!

Dio sensed that something was off! Tony wasn't one to go on a rampage like this, so he must be under some sort of control! The only thing that Dio could think of was Crystal's power! It seemed that the black mist yesterday was still targeting Dio but used some complicated means to pit Tony against him!

Dio was getting more annoyed as he noticed that Tony pulled out the Adamantium knife to fight him! and so, he caught Tony's arm and turned him around and whispered in his ear! "You want to fight? You get it! Now, how about we change the place first! This place has become too crowded!" Dio whispered coldly.

Tony immediately looked around and noticed that the place did become too crowded! There were so many people recording their fight and watching the scene! So, without any words, Tony immediately took Dio and flew into the sky towards a new battleground for them both!

Pepper, who was left in front of Dio's restaurant, frowned as she didn't understand why Tony acted like this. But she immediately left the scene as there were so many people watching her right now.

Inside Dio's restaurant, Crystal, who didn't know what happened outside and still immersed in watching Tv. But unbeknown to her, the Black Mist came out a little bit and smirked as it knew that its plan was working! It still came out even though Crystal was still awake!After flying quite far from the restaurant, Tony stopped and threw Dio toward the open field. Based on Jarvis's scan, this place should be empty!

"I gave you one last chance, Tony! Stop, this madness, before I'm forced to stop you forcefully!" Dio said warningly.

"Stop! Did you think that I will instantly lose to you? Are you that cocky, or it's just plain ignorance! I will crush you! I swear to god!" Tony said as he has become too enraged to think clearly.

"Well, suit yourself!" Dio said as he immediately summoned the [White Album] and [Horus]! Dio immediately shot a bunch of ice shards towards Tony with [Horus]'s power. Dio's ice shard seemed to have no effect as it shattered as soon as it hit Tony's Vibranium armour, but Dio knew that Tony's armour wasn't perfect! It was still an experimental armour as he still couldn't combine the Vibranium with the Adamantium just yet!

Therefore, Dio knew that the armour should have its limit, the ice shards might look like it was useless, but there was no doubt it chipped off Tony armour's durability bit by bit!

"Hey, Tony! Heads up!" Dio said as he threw a large-sized ice sculpture towards Tony!

Tony, who was struggling to defend himself against Dio's ice shards, was surprised that a giant sculpture was suddenly thrown at him like this!

302 Shot

The sculpture that Dio threw towards Tony was none other than a road roller sculpture! Dio could say that after throwing such a thing towards Tony, he felt this satisfaction feeling inside him! But Tony wasn't that easy to defeat! He pulled out another Adamantium Sword from his back and cut the ice sculpture into pieces!

Tony's armour was made to convert the energy from enemy attack into energy that he could use for activating his suit! So, in a way, even if Tony was getting beaten inside this suit, he would never run out of energy!

So, after receiving enough energy, Tony activated the thruster on his boots to 200%! He immediately flew towards Dio at high speed, while thrusting his sword forward to pierce Dio!

Dio immediately used the power of [Horus] to create layers of ice wall between himself and Tony, but unfortunately, Tony was too fast, and the Adamantium Sword was too sharp for the ice wall to block! So, Tony pierced through the ice wall like butter!

Dio didn't seem panicked at all! He spun around and caught Tony's arm while also activating another trick out of his sleeve!

"Ice Cage!" Dio said as the ice wall that was previously destroyed by Tony, gathered around Dio, and suddenly restrained Tony! Dio knew that this Ice Cage was difficult to destroy; in fact, it took hulk a while to break it with a pure brute force!

"It's over, Tony! Stop this nonsense now!" Dio said with a sigh. He wanted to get this over with and asked Tony what was wrong!

But at the same time, a red light flashed from Tony's Iron Man Suit!

"Jarvis, lift the safety protocol and release the stored energy at the same time!" Tony said solemnly.

"But Sir! Your body wouldn't be able to withstand the impact even if it's covered by the Vibranium Gold Plate!" Jarvis said as a warning to Tony.

"Do as I say, Jarvis! This is an order!" Tony said commandingly. It seemed Tony was hell-bent on defeating Dio!

Jarvis immediately did as Tony told, and the energy stored on Tony's back burst immediately! The Ice Cage that was holding him was blown into smithereens while Tony himself was also thrown away into the nearby trees!

This time Dio immediately realised that Tony wasn't himself right now. There was no way Tony would do something this risky if he still thought that Dio was his friend!

"Jarvis, scan the damage my body has sustained! Jarvis?" Tony said as Jarvis' voice couldn't be heard again, this meant that his communication device was broken! Tony was irritated, without Jarvis' help, Tony wasn't a capable fighter! He would no longer be capable of crossing swords with Dio!

Dio saw that Tony was wobbly after the explosion and so he immediately rushed over and pinned him into the nearby tree!

Even if he was using a Vibranium coated armour, Tony could still feel the pain from being tossed around. As Dio slammed Tony into the ground, he quickly tried to remove Tony's headpiece to talk with Tony personally!

But as he did so, a gunshot was heard! Dio was in complete disbelief as he saw that his Ice Armour and Hamon Shield was penetrated by a bullet shot through the iron man's ark reactor! Dio, who has successfully opened Tony's mask, saw that Tony was smirking underneath the mask!

"I use the remaining adamantium to make this bullet, how was the power? Was it strong enough to get the mysterious grim reaper down to his knees?" Tony said with a smirk on his face.

Dio reached out to hold his wound from bleeding out. He couldn't believe an adamantium bullet could do this much to him. He knew that the bullet wasn't the same as the one that was fired with a gun! This was Iron Man's ark reactor; it has ten times more shooting power than a gun would be! William Stryker had used these bullets once when he was cornered by Wolverine, and he successfully penetrated Wolverine's adamantium skull easily!

"Are you seriously trying to kill me, Tony?" Dio asked in disbelief.

Like a fire being extinguished with cold water, Tony immediately realized what he had just done! Tony was instantly shocked as he recalled the unexplainable hatred that he felt throughout his battle with Dio. Now, he was panicking as he didn't know what to do! He began to think that his mind was losing it!

"Jarvis, call an ambulance, pronto! Jarvis?!" Tony said as he ordered Jarvis to call an ambulance, but unfortunately, Jarvis was no longer able to help Tony as his communication device was destroyed when he detonated the reserve energy!

"Surely, Adamantium Bullet was very strong, but unfortunately, it wouldn't be able to kill me!" Dio said as he dug out the silver bullet from the wound and immediately patched the wound up with [White Album] ability!
