Chapter 272 - A Grand Congratulations

When he returned to the villa, he happened to run into Peggy, Selene, and the other women who were on vacation.

Savannah pouted, watching Aaron and Peggy go upstairs.

Although she knew they were from the past, the thought that they rushed over every hour to monopolize Aaron made Savannah feel uneasy.

And thinking about Mikaela, Carly, and Jessica...

Savannah looked at Nina. "We were here first, so why are we just sitting around here?"

Nina also felt uncomfortable but she found it inconvenient to comment on such matters.

"How about... we go up?"

Savannah subconsciously wanted to shake her head.

Nina added, "In another hour, Peggy and the others will probably come over again. I heard it's going to last for two months."

Savannah's expression changed instantly.

Thinking back, over the past month, Aaron's free time had been almost entirely snatched away by Peggy and the others.

No!

She couldn't just sit around foolishly anymore.

She, who arrived first, was reduced to foolishly watching like a third party.

'I'm sorry, sister, but brother-in-law is too outstanding, and I don't want this.'

'And even if I don't sneak a bite, other women will come and sneak a bite.'

'Since that's the case, it's better to benefit me, your younger sister. Keep the fertile water flowing within the family.'

Savannah secretly made up her mind.

She cautiously brought Nina to the doorway.

After the 'war' ends, she will rush in immediately.

She wanted to enjoy the next hour.

However, just as she was leaning against the door eavesdropping, a familiar voice sounded beside her.

"Savannah, Nina, what are you two doing?"

The two trembled, slowly turned their heads, and saw Sif and Karnilla.

Oh no, they got caught.

"Sister, weren't you attending the banquet? Why did you two come down?"

Savannah and Nina spoke with unnatural expressions.

They didn't understand why Sif never came before. But just as they were about to make a move, she arrived.

Sif looked confused, glanced at the room door, and then at the visibly uneasy Savannah.

Something is wrong!

"Didn't you know? Aaron just killed the Prime Celestial, greatly boosting the morale of the Gods of the Nine Realms."

"Karnilla and I specifically came to Earth to represent the Gods of the Nine Realms and offer our congratulations to Aaron."

Congratulations? With what?

Savannah glanced at the two of them. They hadn't brought anything. They were just wearing seductive, spirited long dresses.

Offering themselves as congratulations?

Savannah gritted her teeth.

It took her a moment to react and realize the main point.

"What? Brother-in-law killed Arishem? The Prime Celestial?!"

Her eyes widened. "When?"

Sif replied, "Just now. You didn't know?"

Savannah and Nina exchanged glances.

Aaron and Arishem hadn't made any noise just now and they had been talking with Peggy and the others.

So much so that they hadn't noticed the crisis right under their noses.

So, during the brief time they were talking with Peggy, Aaron casually finished off the strongest Celestial.

"Oh, right, he also dealt with a Dimensional Ruler, whose name was something like..."

"Dormammu." Karnilla naturally knew of Dormammu's existence.

As Nornheim's First Sorceress, the secrets of the magic side she knew far surpassed Sif's knowledge.

Upon hearing this, Savannah's heart surged with emotion.

Brother-in-law is so amazing!

"Oh, right, where is your brother-in-law?" Sif sensed something and said meaningfully.

Savannah and Nina hesitated for a moment and pointed toward the door.

Karnilla suddenly burst out laughing.

Sif realized. "Savannah, you were eavesdropping on your brother-in-law doing important business."

Savannah vigorously shook her head. "N-no."

"Want to go inside and eavesdrop?"

"Huh?!"

Savannah's mouth dropped open.

Seeing Karnilla's strange smile, she immediately snapped back to reality and stammered, "N-no way."

Sif walked up to Savannah. "Are you really unwilling? I originally wanted to share your brother-in-law with you, after all, he is so powerful."

"In that case... I'll go in first."

Hearing this, Sif didn't care that there were others inside. She pushed the door open and walked in.

Watching the two of them walk inside, Savannah and Nina were on the verge of tears.

How many people were inside now?

It seemed like seven already.

Only the two of them were guarding the door while the people inside were enjoying themselves.

This was unfair!

"Princess?" Nina pursed her lips, seeking Savannah's opinion with her eyes.

"No, we cannot tolerate deserting the battle like this."

"For the glory of the Light Elves."

Savannah bit her lip and bravely walked inside.

Nina followed closely behind.

Everyone stayed in the same villa yet only the two of them were isolated outside, like outsiders.

How could that be?

They needed to integrate into the larger group.

Damn it!

"Meow."

Goose lied on a trash can in the hallway, glanced at the open door, and gently licked her soft fur.

Spring had arrived, and the air was filled with the scent of hormones.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

At Aaron Industries.

Peter Parker, who had become Curt's assistant, was interning in the Lizard Serum department of the biology lab.

Although he was only in his senior year of high school, Peter displayed astonishing talent in biology.

And Harry, his good friend, often came to see him.

"Peter, are you still researching the Lizard Serum?"

"Actually, you don't need to work this hard. The Lizard Serum is already an obsolete product. We have something much better to replace it."

Harry watched Peter, who was wearing a white coat, conducting boring research.

As Norman's son, although he would no longer be the heir to Aaron Industries in the future, he would still inherit Norman's position, serving his uncle, Aaron, for his entire life.

Their Osborn family would forever be bound to Aaron, serving this incredible God.

Therefore, whenever he had time, Harry would come to Aaron Industries, familiarize himself with his future work under Norman's personal guidance, and learn how to become a qualified butler.

As for biological research? He wasn't interested at all.

Peter shook his head. "You don't understand."

Peter was very anxious.

What he had just witnessed flashed through his mind.

He had personally seen Gwen swinging around, flying in from another skyscraper.

He recalled the scene he saw on the school bus back then.

So, the Superhero from back then was Gwen?

He also thought of his neighbor and classmate, Mary Jane.

Right after that visit to Aaron Industries, she seemed like a completely different person, becoming more generous, more beautiful, and more mature. Moreover, her drunkard father no longer dared to scold her.

The girl who was once poor was now living the life of a rich young lady.

On one accidental occasion, he personally saw Mary break the limbs of three thugs while passing through a small alley.

At the time, he wanted to stage a rescue, but Mary took down everyone in the blink of an eye.

Mary saw him, merely nodded, and then left without looking back.

Even though they were neighbors and occasionally talked, they were like strangers now.

Mary had become more beautiful and stronger, but also more distant.

There was also another female deskmate named Jessica Jones. She was also very beautiful, a transfer student.

The moment Peter saw her, he thought this girl was amazing.

However, what surprised him was that Jessica and Mary had a great relationship. They chatted and laughed, becoming a beautiful sight at the school.

Furthermore, he discovered that Jessica possessed powerful strength, like Superman in a cartoon.

She could easily snap steel bars and could even spar with Mary.

And one name frequently came up in their conversations.

Aaron.

Then he thought of his best friend, Harry.

Aaron's nephew.

Harry, who originally just had a little money and was somewhat handsome, suddenly possessed Superman-like strength.

Peter gained the recognition of Curt and Otto, and even Norman, based on his knowledge but he still felt inferior.
