New York, Fifth Avenue, Manhattan.
As Manhattan's main north-south thoroughfare, it encompasses various high-end department stores and luxury boutiques, offering every luxury item imaginable from all over the World.
Levi, wearing sunglasses, originally wanted to keep a low profile.
But there was no helping it; 2B and Eve by his side were too eye-catching.
Especially Eve's figure; her posture leaned slightly forward, yet her curves were exceptionally graceful and incredibly sensual.
This immediately drew the attention of many people, and Levi, sandwiched between the two women, became the object of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
"Good thing I wore sunglasses."
Levi felt fortunate, then led them into a luxury store.
Eve and 2B weren't interested in bags; Eve was keen on various accessories and clothes.
As long as she found a combination appealing, she would try it on.
She was particularly fond of tight-fitting clothing like leather pants and jeans, which better accentuated her figure.
Levi generously swiped his card.
After all, she was wearing them for him.
In contrast, 2B was very reserved.
Upon entering the mall and seeing so many brands and garments, she felt a sudden sense of being overwhelmed.
Eve, in fact, had never seen such a scene either; she had only known a desolate Earth.
But she adapted quickly.
2B, however, was somewhat unaccustomed; she was a combat android!
So, Levi directly asked Eve to help 2B choose.
Eve was very happy.
Soon, she selected two dresses and pulled 2B into the fitting room with her.
When they emerged, the two women, dressed in their gowns, appeared extremely elegant and possessed excellent temperaments.
Eve had a gentle demeanor, while 2B was very aloof, her eyes fixed steadily on Levi.
Levi felt he couldn't take his eyes off them; no wonder women loved wearing dresses.
They truly exuded an exceptional aura.
"Boss, how do I look?"
Eve spun around in front of Levi and asked in a lighthearted tone.
On another Earth, things weren't so relaxed; there were only omnipresent Nier-like creatures.
Even Eve felt the happiness here.
"Beautiful."
Levi answered honestly.
Receiving praise, Eve became even more enthusiastic and pulled 2B to continue selecting items.
Things like cheongsams also caught Eve's eye.
She even bought some to modify herself later.
Like ripped jeans…
By the time they emerged at noon, they were laden with bags, each carrying an unknown quantity of clothing.
Fortunately, Eve and 2B were strong, making Levi the most relaxed.
Many women who witnessed this scene were extremely envious of Eve and 2B.
Some even recognized Levi.
"Are you Levi? Do you need another female companion?"
"You already have two; you wouldn't mind a third, would you?"
These bold women approached him directly, but Levi outright rejected them.
He wasn't Tony Stark, who would take anything.
Levi was still very 'picky.'
So, the three quickly got into the car and went to enjoy lunch.
Soon, news of Levi taking girls shopping appeared on social media.
Many people believed Levi was showing disrespect to Tony Stark, implying he could easily KO him.
Now, every move Levi made garnered attention.
But he himself didn't care, enjoying this feeling of being a 'star.'
No wonder everyone wanted to be a celebrity; this feeling of being discussed across the U.S. truly felt good.
Especially his Reputation points, which were quickly approaching ten million again.
He spent the day shopping with Eve and 2B before returning home.
Starting tomorrow, he would train hard, striving to thoroughly beat Tony Stark!
…
"Tony, are you serious?"
At Stark Tower, Pepper Potts, who had been busy all day, asked Tony Stark.
Tony Stark, sweating profusely, posted a few more pictures on social media to maintain the buzz.
"When have I not been serious?"
He casually liked comments online while retorting.
Fans whose comments he liked were extremely excited, never expecting the billionaire to personally like them.
Pepper Potts was utterly confused: "But you're about to head to the Middle East; how will you fight him then?"
This made Tony Stark smile: "Exactly. When the time comes, I'll just go to the Middle East, have no time to fight him, and the matter will be over."
"…"
Pepper Potts understood and immediately rolled her eyes at him, then coldly snorted: "I really hope he beats you to a pulp."
"Just kidding. Youth beats age. He's so much younger than me; only a fool would fight him."
Tony Stark took a sip of his drink.
By then, the purpose of the hype would be achieved, and he would also have an excuse to leave, avoiding a beating from Levi.
Killing multiple birds with one stone!
And it wasn't that he chickened out!
He had company business to discuss in the Middle East; it was unavoidable!
However, before that, he needed to keep a low profile, which was why he didn't even arrange a cover girl, but rather an ordinary person.
Playing with ordinary people naturally didn't generate buzz, which was why Tony used to prefer dating cover girls.
It wasn't just because they were pretty and had good figures, but also because the public loved seeing who he had hooked up with next.
…
Levi didn't know the thoughts of the 'cunning villain' Tony Stark.
For the next few days, he was holed up in the training gym.
After all, Tony Stark was acting so seriously, Levi was really afraid of losing to him and being embarrassed.
"Bang!"
In the ring, Eve easily took Levi down, clamping him with her legs, and looked down, saying, "Boss, your center of gravity is unstable, and you shouldn't use brute force."
Levi patted Eve's thigh, telling her to get up.
They were currently practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which focuses on ground grappling and controlling positions.
This often resulted in Levi being either sat on or locked up by Eve.
But at least it was Eve sitting on him and not 2B.
Eve's weight wasn't significant, at least within an acceptable range.
If it were 2B, with her three hundred pounds of mechanical body pressing down, Levi felt his bones would at least break.
However, after a few days of special training, Levi's strength had still improved significantly.
At least he wouldn't throw 'wild punches' anymore.
Levi rested for a moment, and 2B and Eve quickly came over to massage his shoulders and back.
In these past few days, although Levi and Tony Stark hadn't communicated, they had a great understanding, often tagging each other on the internet.
One day he would announce he'd use Taekwondo, the next he'd announce he'd use Karate, and so on…
This directly maximized the hype, and public anticipation was very high.
Levi couldn't even imagine if the internet would backlash if the fight didn't happen.
But he didn't care about that for now; at least the Reputation points were rolling in.
[Current Reputation: 40,872,000]
In just a few days, his Reputation had reached forty million.
If this level of popularity could be maintained for a year, Levi felt that exchanging for the Superman serum wouldn't be a problem.
But that was more unrealistic than a pipe dream.
Let's just do a ten-roll first.
As Levi was about to make his move, Red Queen appeared: "Boss, Colson has brought the test subject."
