Being A Guest

The weekend came quickly, and on Saturday, Maria called one day in advance with great enthusiasm and asked if Sif needed to send a car to pick them up.

But the result was naturally rejected by Sif. No. 177A Bleecker Street is protected by Kamar-Taj's magic, and ordinary people can't find its location.

Originally, Loki wanted to open a portal and go there directly, but after thinking about it carefully, since he decided to live on the earth for a period of time in the future, he should try to minimize the use of his special ability.

This can also be regarded as setting an example and setting an example for little Elsa.

After Loki and Sif settled in New York, they neither bought a car nor took a local driver's license test.

So on Sunday afternoon, they finally chose to take a taxi to the villa where Maria's family lived.

Maria's villa and Loki's Sanctuary in New York, where they live now, are both in Manhattan, not very far away, and a taxi quickly took them to their destination.

When they got off the car, the enthusiastic Mrs. Maria was already waiting for them in front of the villa.

Seeing Sif, Mrs. Maria immediately stepped forward and gave her a warm hug, and she even greeted little Elsa and little Anna politely.

After Loki settled the bill with the taxi driver, Maria came to Loki with a smile and said, "You are Sif's husband, Mr. Loki! You are as handsome as Sif described!"

Loki responded in a very gentlemanly way: "Mrs. Maria, you are honored. Thank you for inviting our family to be guests today. It is our honor to be invited by an elegant and beautiful lady like you."

Hearing Loki's praise, Maria couldn't help covering her mouth and showing a joyful smile: "No, I'm also very happy to see your family."

At this time, Sif, who was carrying a "gift", also came over to 873, and asked Maria with some doubts: "Why didn't Maria see your husband and little Tony?"

Sif wants to give out the meeting gift he carefully prepared when Maria's family is neat and tidy. She thought it would be more solemn, so she asked Maria.

Maria replied to Sif with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry, Howard still has some work to do, and he may not be able to come back later. Little Tony just finished drinking milk and fell asleep in the crib."

"Speaking of Tony, I don't know what's wrong with this kid these days. He keeps crying in the middle of the night, but it exhausts me and Howard...

When it comes to parenting, the two mothers, Sif and Maria, always have a lot to talk about.

The two walked into the villa while chatting. Loki couldn't get in the way, so he could only hold Elsa's little hand and follow behind them.

Following Maria to the living room, I saw the carefully prepared fruit platter and snacks on the coffee table.

"Everyone, come and sit down here. It's not time for dinner yet. Let's have some afternoon tea and snacks first. It's not long since I moved here. If there is any place where the hospitality is not good, you must be sure. Bring it up with me."

Everyone came to sit on the sofa, and Loki felt little Elsa tugging at his arm. When he looked down, he saw little Elsa blinking her eyes and looking at him expectantly.

Loki knew what little Elsa was thinking at a glance, nodded to her and said: "Go eat if you want to eat, remember to pay attention to your manners, don't be as presumptuous as you are at home. Also, thanks to Ms. Maria hospitality."

After dismissing Elsa as a snack, Loki began to feel a little bored.

Elsa was so absorbed in wrestling with the food on the coffee table that she didn't care about him at all; Sif and Maria had a great conversation, and Loki couldn't get in on the topic they were talking about.

Just when he thought that the next time would be difficult for him, the sound of the door being opened and the footsteps of two people came from outside the living room.

Walking into the living room were two men in neat suits, and Loki had guessed their identities the first time he saw them.

The one walking in front, with a mustache and curly hair, should be Maria's husband, the famous Howard Stark.

And the person following Howard Stark was most likely his driver and butler, Edwin J.A.R.V.I.S.

"Oh, hello! I'm sorry I'm a little late, but you are the friends that Maria invited to the house? I'm Howard Stark.

Howard came up to Loki and held out his hand.

Loki also stood up and took his hand and introduced himself: "Loki, Loki Odinson. My wife and I are both Norwegians, and we just moved to New York to work in Hatton last month."

This is definitely a lie, he and Sif had compiled this information at home before coming here as a guest.

"It turned out to be a friend from Norway. I went there with the army during World War II. The most profound impact was the winter there, which was really bitterly cold."

"I'm used to it, and I'm naturally more resistant to cold. My friends often tease me, saying that I am more freezing than the cold wind in winter."

It's true what Loki said, because he does "frozen" a lot. It's just that he's talking about physical effects, whereas Loki, to Howard, is describing his own personality.

"Really? Although it's the first time we met, I think you're quite funny. I don't know what you do. I'm an inventor and a businessman. Now that we're both living in New York , Maybe we will have a chance to cooperate in the future."

For this question, Loki has long been prepared: "I am a historian engaged in Norse Mythology research, and I am also an archaeologist."

With that said, Loki waved to Sif, motioning her to take out the prepared gift.

"This is the meeting gift we brought here today. It is a replica of the holy sword Durandal based on the description in ancient books. I hope you like it.

But when Sif handed the gift to Howard, the expression on Howard's face became awkward.

J.A.R.V.I.S, who has been following behind him without any sense of presence, immediately stood up and received a gift from Sif.

Maria also stood up from the sofa, and explained: "I'm sorry, Howard has a quirk, he doesn't like to take things from other people's hands. So the things that others hand over are usually me and the J.A.R.V.I.S gang He took it."

"Sorry." Howard said apologetically: "I really like your gift, and I will hang it in the most conspicuous place in my office later."

In any case, the first meeting between the two families was indeed a bit embarrassing.

However, thanks to the fact that Maria and Sif hit it off immediately, and Howard is probably also very interested in Norse Mythology because of Tesseract, and they quickly became acquainted after a few glasses of wine at dinner.

After that, the relationship between the two became better and better, and Howard became Loki Midgard's second friend after Ancient One. The gatherings at Stark's house continued every weekend.

After Maria's introduction, Sif found a good kindergarten in Manhattan, and little Elsa also started her kindergarten career.

In the first few days when Elsa first entered the kindergarten, Loki, who was not at ease, used magic to hide every day, and followed behind to observe Elsa's performance.

In order for his daughter to grow up physically and mentally, the old father Loki is really worried!

It wasn't until a week later that Loki was completely relieved when he confirmed that Elsa could blend in well with her peers and that she didn't violate the agreement not to use magic power.

But Loki didn't know until three years later, when Elsa was six years old, that his daughter had become the big sister of all the children in that kindergarten.

To put it bluntly, Elsa, who inherited Frost Titan and Aesir God Bloodline, even if she does not use magic power, her physical fitness is not comparable to that of children on earth.

Under such ability crushing, even if Elsa has never touched other children, those children who covet her big sister's head position can't break her defense~

As a result, Elsa has been the overlord of the kindergarten for three years from the time she entered school to the time she left. This makes Loki can't help but think "my daughter is worthy of the emperor".

Sure enough, Elsa should inherit her throne and become the Ice Queen, and the Ancient One must not be abducted to Kamar-Taj!

When Elsa grew up, little Anna also became a little girl who could run, jump, and speak well.

It's just that unlike Elsa in kindergarten who has a group of younger brothers, little Anna has only one younger brother, and that is Tony Stark.

No way, although little Anna is a girl, she also inherited the powerful blood from Loki and Sif, and her physical ability is stronger than that of her elder sister Elsa at the same age.

Just Tony, a nerd with physics books and math books all day long, how could he be little Anna's opponent. Little Anna directly told Tony a truth with her little powder fist, it's physics~ it's useless to look at it, you have to "practice" it.

What's worse, even if Tony went to complain to Maria, Maria would still be partial to little Anna when it comes to such petty fights between children.

This made Tony wonder whether he was picked up by his parents from the trash can, but he felt that this kind of thing did not conform to the law of biological reproduction, and he was troubled for a long time

Fortunately, the kind little Anna would come to him every day and "physically" light up his head, so no matter how distressed he was, Tony kept sleeping like a baby.

To this day, Tony's miserable childhood seems to be finally turning around!
