72. New World, New Atmosphere.

"Welcome back! How was your outing?" Alex immediately greeted them, judging by the satisfied smiles on their faces, it seemed like they had a great time.

As soon as Pietro entered, he threw himself onto the couch and started talking while taking off his wig.

"It was amazing! Alex, you missed out big time by not coming with us. We found this awesome restaurant, and then we went to an amusement park with lots of interesting stuff. Oh, and do you remember that Spider-Man we saw before? We saw him fighting a rhino guy on the street!"

Listening to Pietro's excited recounting, Alex just nodded with a smile, taking the bag from Kara's hands and opening it. Inside, there were all sorts of miscellaneous items.

"What did you guys buy?" Seeing the assortment of items, Alex couldn't help but shake his head in amusement.

Pietro quickly divided the bag into several parts. "Oh, we bought a bunch of clothes. Since the weather is getting colder, and we haven't gotten new clothes for a while, I'm okay, but Kara doesn't have many clothes. She hasn't even worn underwear before."

"Cough cough, you bought underwear for Kara?" Alex nearly choked on his tea, realizing after all this time that Pietro, the careless boy, actually had such a thoughtful side.

Even Alex himself hadn't considered Kara's need for underwear, or rather, he hadn't thought about it at all. Who would care about a teenage girl picking out underwear? Given Kara's combat prowess, Alex subconsciously ignored the fact that she was still a fifteen-year-old girl at heart.

Looking at him, Pietro didn't seem embarrassed at all. "Yeah, anyway, we also need to buy a few more sets of clothes to change into. Our styles weren't available at Old Bruce's place, and we didn't have time to buy before. Now we finally got the chance."

"Not bad, you're quite considerate." Alex nodded in agreement. With Pietro's words, he also suddenly realized that his own clothes hadn't been washed for a long time, emitting a strange smell.

"Of course, by the way, do you think this outfit I picked for Kara looks good? It's the latest style. The people at the clothing store said I have a great eye for fashion and that I'm really good at matching!" Pietro pointed at Kara, showing off.

Shifting his gaze, Kara finished putting away her things and came over to Alex. It wasn't until then that Alex took a good look at Kara's attire.

Her short hair had been neatly trimmed, giving her a more heroic look. She wore a black cropped top with cats printed on it, and over it, a black leather jacket with some studs and metal chains as embellishments. Her lower half was in loose-fitting jeans with a few tears at the knee.

With this outfit, Kara, who already had a bit of a neutral beauty, immediately transformed into a cool girl. With this look, anyone who saw her would call her 'big sis'.

What left Alex speechless was the tattoo on Kara's exposed belly, and even metal earrings to match the whole outfit.

"Piercing on a steel body, are you kidding me?" Alex looked at Pietro incredulously, hoping this guy could give him a reasonable explanation.

"It's fake, no piercings. These are clip-on earrings, and the tattoo is a temporary one. How about it, cool or not?" Pietro grinned and gave a thumbs up.

Upon seeing this, Alex shifted his gaze back to Kara, sensing her discomfort. "Pietro told me that most people on Earth dress like this, and I think it looks pretty good."

"It's not bad-looking. It's just that your outfit caught me off guard," Alex said as he put down his tea cup and picked up the other bags on the table.

Reminded by Pietro, Alex realized that he needed to face the beautiful new world ahead. At least now he had money and could enjoy the services he had never experienced before. But what Alex was most curious about was what outfits Pietro had picked for him. If they were similar to Kara's style, the three of them could form a rock band right away.

Fortunately, Pietro's taste had normalized quite a bit on Alex. The clothes in the bags were mostly mature men's high-neck sweaters, khaki vests, suits with trousers, and long trench coats, which made Alex breathe a sigh of relief.

"By the way, you mentioned earlier that you saw Spider-Man fighting Rhino?" Alex, while organizing his clothes in the bag, steered the conversation back to the superheroes of this universe.

"Yeah, Spider-Man is so cool! That dumb Rhino wasn't his match at all. Spider-Man easily knocked him down, and then he was quickly arrested by the arriving police," Pietro said excitedly, his face full of longing.

"Peter Parker, the Spider-Man you mentioned, is indeed very powerful. His strength, speed, and reflexes are top-notch, and he appears to be at ease in combat, even using language to distract and mislead his opponents," Kara added.

To this, Alex just chuckled. "Actually, most superheroes don't talk as much during fights as he does. He's just a chatterbox, not as deep as you think. But one thing you said is right, Spider-Man's combat prowess is indeed top-notch."

"Wait a minute, how do you know Spider-Man's name is Peter Parker?" Pietro suddenly realized something and exclaimed.

"I saw it," Kara said innocently, pointing to her eyes. "I can clearly see his hidden identity under the battle suit and his press card in his pocket, which indeed has the name Peter Parker."

"Peter Parker... why does that name sound so familiar?" Pietro muttered, rubbing his chin as he tried to recall where he had heard the name before.

Thinking for a moment, Alex gently reminded Pietro, "The house we used to live in, that was his house."

"The house we used to live in," Pietro suddenly remembered something and slapped the table. "I remember now, he's Peter Parker, the one who was bitten by a radioactive spider in a chemical experiment, got a terminal illness, and his family was destroyed!"

Alex glanced at Kara, who seemed lost in thought, and then nodded with a smile.

"Yes, but in this world, that spider didn't bring him illness. Instead, it turned him into the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man for the people of New York."
