CHAPTER - XCVI

I walk over to Diana and open the curtain to see a tired Diana who opens her eyes and looks at me to stretch out her hand and I approach her.

Diana: "I thought you were coming to see me not to sleep with the doctor."- She said it while smiling at me.

Richard: "well I took advantage of the situation and killed two birds with one stone so, you like the ring."- said it so she could see that on her hand is a black ring.

Diana: "You really gave me a ring while I was in a coma, I will show it off to the others."- She said it in a mocking tone.

Richard: "actually the others have it as they are my wives, it is a sign that I will always be watching over them."- I said it to kiss her hand and approach her.

Diana: "what's so special about the ring, you never give normal things."- She said it feeling stronger every minute.

Richard: "they are connected to me if you'll get hurt it will draw strength from me to heal you'll and I in the same way will recover a little from my wounds."- I said this as she stretches out her hands for me to carry her in a nuptial way.

I took off the sheet that covered her to see that the wound she had disappeared and there was no scar.

Only my hand passes over one of her nipples to go over where the wound was.

Diana: "How do you feel, honey?"- She said it as she clung to me.

Richard: "I just had to make some changes, but they are not important."- I said it to take her calmly to leave a tired sleeping Susan I open the door to see a sleeping Felicia in the wheelchair so I push her calmly to where the guest room should be and there are Diana's clothes.

I calmly sit her down on the bed so she can begin to get dressed.

I caress her cheek affectionately and she holds my hand affectionately to stand up with effort and kiss me.

She settles on my chest.

Diana: "when I saw you in the bed and they mentioned that you couldn't survive I was furious the person I love the most was in a fight between life and death I couldn't stand it I had to do something and I went...."

Richard: "and you went and did something crazy you fought against apotheosis, Diana you know how devastated I would be if I woke up and heard that you were dead many people died while I was in a coma and I couldn't stand that one of the people I love is dead and I couldn't do anything."- I said it looking at her eyes.

Diana: "I didn't think at that moment I was just furious."- She said it sad.

Richard: "Just think before you do something like that Diana."- I said it so she nods.

We started walking and she leaned on me to start recovering.

I walked to the chair where Felicia is.

To take her downstairs.

We get to where everyone is I see that there is Peter, his girlfriend, and Aunt May.

Richard: "It's good to see that everyone is together."- I said it with a calm smile.

Peter: "yes when you woke up and ripped off all the parts that were put in place to heal you and regenerate you and turn you into this."- He said it pointing to my more compact and muscular body.

Richard: "well that's one thing I want to comment on."

Jennifer: "first why do I have a ring on my ring finger."

Richard: "That's one thing you see I got a very special ring for you women's... with this ring I will mark them as my wives and it gives them a percentage of my power so they can heal faster and can survive lethal wounds."

Richard: "and the other thing is that I stop being human, demon, angel, and god."- I said it so that they would see me surprised.

Johnny: "Wait, weren't you a mixture of multiple beings."- He said it incredulously.

"Well I was."- I said it scratching the back of my head.

Gwen: "You said you were what happened."- She asked intrigued.

Richard: "I gave up everything to force my body to be strong enough to fight with apotheosis and with that I had a chance to defeat him, but I lost everything that defined me as a human, you could say that I'm closer to being a.."

Hestia: "God no nephew."- She said it appearing on the couch next to Ben who jumped scared and his girlfriend.

Ben: "where are you from little girl."- He said it raising it delicately so that Hestia could touch where his hand was.

Hestia: "You know, nephew, I like your friends, they are all friendly."- She said it to start building Ben's missing arm.

Ben: "How did you do that?"- He asked in surprise.

Richard: "She is aunt Hestia, the goddess of family and home."- I said pointing at her.

Gwen:" so she's your other aunt you told me about her"- She said it looking at her she has the appearance of a girl.

Richard: "What are you doing here aunt Hestia."

Hestia: "well I came to see you since you haven't been here for a long time."- She said it puffing out her cheeks.

Richard: "sorry aunt I was away for a while and I traveled to the wilderness."- I said apologetically.

Richard: "and going back to what we talked about, I am completely a Nephalem, a being that is apart from everything, and at the same time I am everything."- I said seriously.

I stretched out my hand so that my body began to expel too much energy and unconsciously an arm formed behind me.

Hestia: "or you already represent something, that's a breakthrough."- She said it with emotion.

Richard: "that I represent completely."- I asked in surprise.

Hestia: "your own magical energy presents you with anger, some justice, you steal something from Athena and life, what you represent for the moment is anger, which is a powerful thing."- she said it by touching the stone that ben is made of.

Richard: "Well I already knew about life, but I never thought about justice."- I said it carving my chin.

Hestia: "well congratulations for not just being a demon god and being a god if you have people praying to you you will be more powerful like we were."- She said it with a smile.

Richard: "Well that means I can do miracles without having to ask for something in return, right?"- I asked with interest.

Hestia: "to a certain extent, but since you are an inferior god so you can't do much, but as a demon god you have greater capabilities."- she said it without much importance.

Richard: "doesn't it bother you that I'm a demon god."- I asked.

Hestia: "you are my nephew and Peter train your body to be at the level of Diana or stronger."- She said it to float and hit him in the head.

Peter: "but I've been busy I don't have time to train and I've never trained."- He said it nervously.

Richard: "ho Pete you have me I can teach you how to exercise."- I said smiling.

Richard: "And another thing Peter, you will be the CEO of Parker Industries."- I said it so that everyone would shut up in surprise.

Peter: "Wait, wasn't this your dream."

Richard: "Yes, but people are looking for someone human to lead them into the future and I'm not human anymore so you will be the face of Parker Industries and that starts today."- I said seriously.

Richard: "I have a question, how did the guardian systems work?"- I asked interested.

Peter: "The robot dogs are very useful and have helped save many lives."

Richard: "Excellent start, we will begin mass production of the guardians, they are programmed to save people and carry groceries."- I said with a smile.

Peter: "You want to build more of them, there are a lot of them, don't you think, about 50 of them."

Richard: "Yes, enough to protect and save a medium-sized city."- I said it seriously.

Richard: "Tony should be back in about 10 minutes,"- I said sitting down.

The time passed so that red and gold armor could be seen to fall heroically.

Tony: "Well I just got back and you look more recovered, how is the idea of a citadel in orbit."- He said interested.

Richard: "That's a project that will need a lot of manpower."- I said it seriously.

Richard: "But what matters is that would you like to earn a percentage on a project that is already bearing fruit."

Tony: "What would that project be."- He said interested.

Richard: "Project Guardians, which is about the robot dogs that have been helping out a lot."

Tony: "those robots have really helped a lot, they have pulled people out of destroyed buildings and have saved people, it would be a great benefit to have the stark industries logo on them, it's a deal."- He said smiling.

We shook hands so he started sending the information to Jarvis.

Richard: "It's a 50/50 no."- I said smiling.

Tony: "I was thinking more like 40 for me and 60 for you but I'm not going to refuse."- He said it smiling.

Richard: "well we have to start building the company because Peter will have to leave to represent our fledgling company."- I said it with pride.

Peter: "I don't think that's a good idea."- He said it nervously.

Richard: "Gwen give your boyfriend some motivation."- I said it seriously.

Gwen: "don't tell me that Peter honey you know I love you, but you should have the courage to represent the company that Richard wants to create and you know he can be idiot sometimes."

Richard: "Hey, that's offensive."- I said it in annoyance.

Gwen: "but you don't deny it besides a lover of violence, but the only good thing I can see about that idiot is that he loves his family and always looks for the best."- She said it seriously.

Gwen: "so don't give up something that can help you grow as a person."- She said it seriously.

Richard: "well if we're already in this I'm going to buy the Baxter building."- I said it looking at Johnny, Ben, and Reed who looked blank.

Susan came in with a sleepy look to see me.

Susan: "what's going on."

Richard: "nothing important, I'm buying the Baxter company."- I said it without much importance.

She woke up suddenly to walk towards me and slap me in the face.

Susan: "How dare you destroy...."

Richard: *Calm down Susan I am trying to maintain the facilities of the Baxter building I know it is a treasure of your brother's and you I would never destroy anything you love."- I said it in a soft tone.

Richard: "You see I know that the Baxter building is bankrupt and the only way to keep this treasure and I can fulfill my dream would be to buy the Baxter building and turn it into a branch of Parker Industries and they will have a constant flow of money to do their experiments, but they have to build something at least once a year something that will help them make money."- I was serious.

Susan: "I don't know."- She said it with doubt.

Richard: "just think about it carefully Susan I will never hurt you I owe you a lot for helping me and for another thing we won't talk about in public if you don't want to."- I said it while caressing her cheek.

Susan started to blush only to look away.

Richard: "this is all good, but you have a press conference to talk to Tony, Peter."- I said it with a smile.

Tony: "yes we have since he is in Washington DC so we have to go and Richard also goods since you are the builder of those robots and an official avenger and people have to present well."- He said it serious.

Richard: "seriously I have my girls here and I wanted to hang out with them."- I said disappointed.

The girls come up to hug me.

Illyana: "you may not be human anymore, but we still love you and you are a good representative of the mutants so you have to go."- She said this as she hugs me and I feel her warm presence.

I just nodded to kiss her lips the other girls just stare at me so I kiss them all I look at hope and begged they look at me waiting I just shrug my shoulders to kiss hope softly at first I stick my tongue inside her she sighed in satisfaction as our tongues fought for dominance what she lost.

I looked at rogué I raised my arms so that she jumped at me and kissed me with a lot of passion I felt a little pique that is her absorbing some of my energy.

Richard: " hey you are sucking my energy."- I said it as she realizes to stop and smile at me nervously.

"sorry sugah."- She said it nervously I just kissed her on the forehead.

"no problem Anna."- I said it calmly.

Richard: "well we have to go."- I said so we go out to the helipad so that with me turning into a dragon I spread my wings Peter stares at me surprised.

Peter: "Since when can you become a dragon."

Richard: "I'm not a dragon I'm a demon, apparently the stories they tell about dragons are demons that roam the world." I said it crouching at his height.

Peter: " are all the dragons are demons."

Richard: "not only a specific caste what I represent is a hell dragon that is a demon since I am a humanoid being that can walk on two legs and I use demonic energy to its fullest."- I said it without much importance.

Richard: "And you can't ride me if you don't want to look like a fried egg."- I said it seriously to spread my wings and take off.

Peter: "and how am I going to go there."- He said it seriously.

Richard: "ask behemoth he could do it he's a great guy."- I said it to see him on the helipad.

At that moment behemoth arrives so Peter with some fear got on it and it detached so we could start our trip to Washington DC.

As we fly I see with amusement how Peter, even with his spider powers, finds it hard to stay attached.

As we arrive I see Tony.

Richard: "How did the press come together so quickly,"- I asked interested.

Tony: "I'm Sending a notification to some reporters I know and I get along well."- He said it calmly.

Richard: "Yes, it wouldn't be difficult at this hour."

Tony: "Come on, it's not too late, it's 1 o'clock in the morning."- He said it simply.

Richard: "You mark me as honorary avenger."

Tony: "Don't dream it, kid, you just moved up in rank, you will be an avenger of strength, if the hulk is missing, you're in, or if Cap is missing, you're in, or if I'm missing, you're in."- He said it seriously.

Richard: "You know that serious tone doesn't suit you."- I said it with a toothy smile.

Tony: "I know but you don't know how nervous I am, I left the company for a whole month, you don't know how furious pepper is right now, plus her mood swings and her desire to eat strange things."

Richard: "ho she is pregnant who is the godfather I want to be the godfather."- I said it with a smile.

At that moment I heard Tony gag.

Richard: "You hadn't noticed Tony."

Tony: "What am I doing as I'm going to be a father and she's at the interview."- He said it upset.

Richard: "Just relax and marry her if you love her and you can have a family."- I said it with a smile I couldn't see her face, but I knew it was blank.

Tony: "I lost the engagement ring I had happy."- He said it with sadness.

Richard: "I can give you one."- I said it calmly while in the distance you can see a place that is full of people.

While Tony goes down heroically and those people applaud excitedly until they see me coming down behind Tony and some of them turn pale when they see me.

Reporter: "dragon."- He said it scared when he saw me.

Tony: "yes he is one of the strongest members of the avengers he is berserk."- He said it while opening the helmet showing a smile while my body begins to shrink until my size of two meters and my semi-human appearance remains as I noticed another peculiarity I have elongated and pointed ears.

'another thing I have to note about my new species.'- I thought about it as I walked towards them all looking amazed.

"it's good to see you all."- I said it in a friendly tone they were excited.

Reporter: "Unbelievable."

After that behemoth arrived leaving Peter on the ground to go back to the sky to get cleaned up.

Tony: "I need a microphone, can you bring me a microphone."- He said it looking at the assistant, and he just nodded.

I cleared my throat a little to clean up my voice and speak loudly.

Richard: "It is a pleasure to have everyone together as you know the last few weeks humanity was in danger of being wiped out."- I said it seriously.

Reporter: "we are not in danger are we."- Said a reporter.

Tony: "not anymore in a joint effort of everyone and especially berserk we managed to stop apotheosis, although we didn't leave without losing some people, but apotheosis was eliminated."- He said it seriously.

At that point, Tony passed the microphone to throw it to Peter.

Peter: "w-well I'm here to ask if you are satisfied with our guardian aid system."- He said nervously

Reporter: "What system."- He asked him quizzically.

Peter: "You see, at the time New York was attacked, the family company was sent a prototype of the Guardian, a mechanical animal specialized in rescue and SIF functional intelligent system that helped to protect and safeguard people's lives."- He said it more confident with the information he already has.

Reporters: "You are the creator of these things"- They ask excitedly.

Reporter: "what branch of stark industries is that guardian and SIF from." They ask.

Richard: "actually we are a separate company from stark that will start working in a mutual agreement to help the population."- I said it seriously and they looked at me.

Reporter: "what is the name of your company."

Richard: "It's Parker Industries and the CEO will be Peter Parker."- I said it pointing to my brother so he would see me upset.

Richard: "if you want to ask questions we can answer all your questions."

Reporter 1: "how do we know that SIF machine won't go crazy as the destroyed HAMMER industry creation did."- He asks seriously.

Richard: "SIF is a system that took me a full year to build up completely and I showed it everything that is good about humanity and then introduced it little by little to how vile we can be."- I said it seriously.

Richard: "In a nutshell, SIF is prepared for anything humanity itself does because it is programmed to protect."- I said it without any doubt.

So far.
