12.31
This day is exceptional to our heroes. Specially for the Avengers. They were preparing for their new year with happiness and harmony.
In the mansion of Arthur was looking at his door with expectations.
He was waiting for his guests. Arthur said loudly.
" Eliza, are you done yet?"
Eliza shouted.
" Brother, I am coming."
She came with Camilla and Isabella. By the way, Isabella is Arthur's grandmother. They quickly ran down with Alfred. Alfred looked at his watch and said calmly.
" Master, Sir Tony will arrive soon."
Arthur nodded. He said lightly.
" Steve and Sam will come with him. After that, our other guests will arrive."
Two hours later.
The hall was filled with various people. Aliens, orcs, humans, elves, mutants etc. Steve clicked his glass with Bruce Wayne.
" Well, it was a tough year for us. We fought against a few gods."
Bruce nodded. He shook his glass.
" Yeah."
They chatted happily while others were the same too. Clark petted Jon's head.
" Go play with Damian and Alex. They are waiting for you."
Jon groaned. His face turned red.
" Dad, I am not a kid. What if Damian and Alex see me, I will be laughingstock."
Lois elbowed Clark.
" Hey, stop that. Our boy has grown up."
Jon looked at his mother with a grateful look. He cheerfully went to Damian and Alex.
In the corner, Darius was hand wrestling with Grom. Their hands were full of muscles.
" This year, I will beat you."
Grom laughed.
" I am old, Darius. You are still in your prime."
Aqua shouted.
" Place your bets."
Tanya rubbed her temple with depression. She said with a helpless tone.
" Kazuma, stop her."
Chen petted her shoulder. His big body shook slightly.
" Why bother? We guardians did a lot. They need to relax."
Kuai Liang nodded.
" Indeed, I fought against outer realm without rest."
Hanzo sighed with emotion.
" Yes, I feel the same. Without Arthur and Liu Kang, It would have been difficult."
Meanwhile, in the other corner.
Ainz and Rimuru were looking at their subordinates with helpless looks. Albedo said loudly
" Lord Ainz and Lord Arthur are the best lords."
Shion snorted.
" Dream on. Only Lord Rimuru and Lord Arthur are the best."
They quarreled with each other. Rimuru whispered.
" I think we are in trouble."
Ainz nodded. Naofumi looked at them with pity. He said with a smile.
" Filo, are you full?"
Filo shook her head. She smiled.
" I am not, master. Lord Seiya said I had to eat more."
Naofumi's forehead filled with black lines.
" That idiot doesn't know anything besides the training. Don't listen to his words."
In the center of the hall.
Po was eating with Naruto, Goku and Luffy. They were competing against each other. All Might narrate their fight.
" Currently, Gokus is leading the scene. Oh, Luffy is furiously coming after his count. Po and Naruto are going too."
Goku stuffed his food quickly to his mouth. Touma sighed.
" How much is it? This is terrible. Hey, where is Index?"
Saitama said with a calm tone.
" I forgot her. She ran off to the food table."
Touma's face paled.
" Oh no! Kirito, help me."
Kirito shook his head.
" No way, man. Index will bite me again. I don't want that."
On the other hand, mutants were busy too. Wolverine was drinking with his buddy, Thor. Scott said in a distressed tone.
" Logan, Wade has run again. He is bad-mouthing Inhumans again."
Logan said with anger.
" This fool. I should have brought Vanessa over."
Charles smiled.
" Leave him. He is having fun."
Jean said, with depression.
" But we had to fight against Aquaman last time. X force is dragged by him."
Charles laughed.
" That makes him Deadpool. He is our comrade."
Richard sighed.
" He is like our Johnny. He is probably pick up girls now."
Susan smiled helplessly.
" Don't mind him. He has been through a lot recently."
Richard groaned.
In the stage.
Arthur held his glass. He lightly tapped it with his spoon. The attention focused on him. Arthur coughed.
" Good evening, my friends. This year has been though for us. We fought against many enemies. Especially the plague woman called Plague."
The people laughed at his remark. Arthur continued.
" We all had worked hard. The guardians never let down people's hope. We guarded our domain with utmost importance. We lost our comrades and our friends. Even so, their sacrifice wasn't meaningless. We kept many lives. So, I hope to work together next year. Lastly, Happy New Year. Cheers!"
Arthur raised his glass and the hall filled with happiness.
