Primogenitor in Marvel

Chapter 159



Chapter 159

The sudden theft of the Scepter and the Cube mobilized all the Avengers in search of clues.

Thor and Tony flew around the Tower, searching for the possible culprit.

They weren't foolish and assumed the fireball was a decoy, and someone went invisible before creating the illusions.

Thor immediately blamed Loki since he had similar abilities. He couldn't help but worry because he needed to return quickly to repair the Bifrost. If the other realms found out about what happened here, some rebels might start a war.

"I'll go back to the Helicarrier. We can track the Tesseract again," Bruce said suddenly.

"I'll take you," Clint said, nodding seriously.

Both quickly boarded the Quinjet and flew to the Helicarrier.

"You're leaving?" Natasha asked, looking at Hope.

"Yes, I'll probably get scolded for what I did today," Hope sighed.

"Remember to talk to me. I'm sure we'll be working together from now on," Natasha said, smiling.

"See you," Hope said to Natasha before saying goodbye to the others and flying off, shrinking in size.

She quickly arrived at an airport before sneaking onto a plane heading home. Her father was probably waiting for her for a good talk.

"I'll be back too," Natasha said to Tony, sighing.

"I'll go with you," Tony said, smiling inwardly. He would go with his armor in tatters so that Pepper could see how heroically he fought and his battle scars.

"I suppose I'll also go to see what I can do to fix this. I really need the Cube," Thor sighed. Without the Cube, not to mention repairing the Bifrost, he couldn't even go back home.

"Let me know if you need help," Natasha said, nodding.

Natasha called her ship from the top of Stark Tower before flying home, followed by Tony.

While Natasha was landing her ship, Tony was already knocking on the door.

Pepper assumed it was Tony since Damian had told her they were on their way.

Seeing his armor in tatters and slight traces of blood on his face, Pepper smiled with red eyes before gently hugging the tough armor.

"You're so old, and you still want to play the hero," Pepper complained.

"How about I prove to you tonight that I'm still young enough to be a hero?" Tony whispered, joking with Pepper, who lightly punched his armor.

"Find a room and don't block the way," Natasha said, looking at them without words. It's fine if they want to flirt, but don't do it at the entrance.

Tony laughed as he stepped aside with Pepper, who also laughed softly.

Natasha smiled at them before walking into the living room and finding Damian chatting with the three little ones about the battle.

The news didn't show any gruesome images, so Damian allowed them to watch with the whole family.

Natasha looked at Damian as her thoughts started to race. She believed that the person who stole the Scepter and the Cube was under Damian's orders. She had no evidence but also no doubts.

"My lovely heroine has arrived," Damian said, turning to look at her with a smile.

An immediate smile appeared on Natasha's face upon hearing Damian's words as she approached and hugged him.

"Are you tired?" Damian asked, smiling at her.

"Hm, I want to take a bath," Natasha said, looking flirtatiously at Damian.

"Carol is already bathing with Ana and Ophelia, although they might be consoling her," Damian joked.

"Why?" Natasha asked, confused.

"I gave her a little gift to create cosmic energy weapons. She made one that was too big and couldn't control it, so it exploded. Although no one noticed, and they probably thought it was an explosion from the ship, she still feels embarrassed, thinking that everyone knows what happened," Damian laughed softly.

"I'll go see her. I'll wait for you to join me for a bath," Natasha said with a suggestive smile before rushing upstairs.

"Hello," Tony said, entering the living room with Pepper.

"You look bad," Damian laughed as he looked at Tony's armor.

"Yes, thanks for sending your soldiers to help. I'm sure it would have been much worse without them," Tony nodded.

"It's okay. After all, I don't exactly like seeing innocent people getting hurt either," Damian said casually as he played with Alice's golden hair.

Ivy and Emma got off their father's legs and surrounded Tony, touching his armor.

Tony chuckled as he watched them before making the armor open from the back, then taking a step back and exiting.

The armor closed back up, returning to normal.

"By the way, the Tesseract and the Cube were stolen by someone who went invisible and created illusions," Tony said looking at Damian before he saw Ivy out of the corner of his eye lifting her armor off one leg.

Tony's face couldn't help but change as he approached her as if to take the armor, but he also hesitated. He knew that armor weighed around 200 kilograms as it had much heavier armor plating.

"Ivy darling, leave it on the ground. If you damage it, Uncle Tony won't have a way to get home," Damian laughed slightly as he watched her hug the leg of the suit while looking at him innocently.

"Yes, leave it on the ground. You'll have to give me your allowance for 100 years to pay for it," Tony joked.

"Allowance? Daddy doesn't give us allowances," Ivy said, tilting her head a bit as she left the armor on the ground.

Alice, who was in a world of relaxation while her father played with her hair, also perked up upon hearing that word.

"Daddy, when will you give us an allowance?" Emma asked, looking at her father.

"When you're 5 years old, dear," Damian said, shaking his head while smiling.

"I'll go get Morgan. We should go back home and see what needs to be done to sort everything out," Pepper said before leaving the room.

"I'll go say goodbye to Morgan," Alice said, leaving her father's comfortable caresses.

His two sisters left Tony's armor before following Alice.

Seeing that there was no one around, Tony approached Damian before sitting beside him.

"Tell me, is the theft of the Scepter and the Cube related to you?" Tony asked, looking at Damian. He couldn't think of anyone else who could have stolen the things right under his nose.

"In fact, it does have to do with me. I ordered someone to do it," Damian said, nodding.

"All right then," Tony said, nodding. He worried that it might fall into the wrong hands, but at least Damian wouldn't cross certain limits. He also knew that his friend wasn't exactly an altruistic person.

"Don't you want to know what I'm going to use them for?" Damian asked, smiling slightly.

"In fact, I'm more curious to know exactly what the Scepter and the Cube are," Tony said, looking at Damian.

"Hm, it's a long story," Damian said before creating an illusion of space.

"Before the universe existed, there were 6 singularities. Later, these created the universe, and from their remains, 6 small stones were created."

"The Infinity Stones," Damian said, creating illusions of six of them.

"There's the stone of time, space, mind, power, reality, and finally, soul."

"Each one controls its aspect within limits set only by its bearer."

"The Scepter has the Mind Stone, and the Cube has the Space Stone," Damian said, looking at Tony with a slight smile while he had an expression of astonishment.

"Are you serious?" Tony asked, incredulous.

"The gems have an almost absolute power, although, as I said, it depends on the bearer; a normal human would die just by touching them," Damian said.

"How did Loki lose?" Tony asked, confused.

"The Mind Stone doesn't have offensive capabilities like others, but it's equally terrifying. Once it touches you, you lose all free will and are completely controlled by the bearer."

"Furthermore, Loki also had the Space Stone. If he had wanted to escape, no one but me could have stopped him."

"I understand," Tony said, nodding. It would probably have been different if Loki had the Power Stone.

"What will you do with them?" Tony asked, looking at Damian.

"Maybe I'll start collecting them?" Damian said, chuckling.

"Whatever," Tony said, not prying further. He knew enough.

At that moment, Pepper arrived with Morgan in her arms, followed by the three little ones.

"Let's go," Pepper said, looking at Tony.

"Do you mind if I take Natasha's ship? I'll return it later," Tony said to Damian.

"Don't worry, I'll send you off and give you a little gift," Damian said before teleporting them back to Stark Tower.

He had repaired the entire interior of the tower so they wouldn't have to fix anything.

"Daddy, how much allowance are you going to give us?" Emma asked in a low voice, looking at him with her cute blue eyes.

"Hm, it depends on how many kisses you give me," Damian said, pointing to his cheek.

Emma laughed before kissing Damian's cheek several times.

"Hey, I want some too!" Alice said, jumping towards Damian, followed by Ivy.

Damian happily laughed as he received affection from his daughters.

"Well, I want kisses too," Sophia, who had arrived in the room, said.

"Are you going to give us an allowance?" Emma asked, negotiating as if she were.

"Maybe," Sophia said, laughing, as she approached and started playing with the three little ones.

Damian stealthily slipped away before heading to his room and entering the bathroom to have a good time.

...

Thor was flying at great speed towards Jane's house; he had used the device she had given him.

She had told him she had already returned home after visiting Damian.

After the trip, Thor landed in front of Jane's house before ringing the doorbell.

Jane opened the door and greeted Thor.

"Hello, come in," Jane said, stepping aside before closing the door after Thor.

"How is everything?" Jane asked, smiling.

"Not very good. The Scepter and the Tesseract were stolen," Thor said, smiling ironically.

"And I really need the Tesseract to get back home. I was hoping your cousin could personally help me track down the culprit," Thor said, looking at Jane.

"Hmm," Jane hummed as she thought about it. She could immediately assume that Damian was somehow involved.

"Why do you need the Tesseract, if I may ask?" Jane asked, looking at Thor.

"The energy of the Tesseract is special and can repair the Bifrost. It's imperative that it be fixed as soon as possible to prevent rebellions in the nine realms," Thor said, trying to indicate how serious the matter was.

"I can help you," Jane said, nodding.

"But you have to promise to take me for a walk in Asgard after fixing the bridge," Jane said, looking at Thor.

"I would love to show you where I come from," Thor said, smiling cheerfully.

"Hm, I'll be looking forward to it," Jane said, smiling at Thor.

"I suppose we should head back to New York. I had just returned home not long ago," Jane sighed as she gestured for Thor to follow her.

The two quickly boarded the ship before traveling in the direction of Damian's house.

...

Harry was in a forest on the outskirts of New York, a couple of kilometers from Damian's house.

Looking at the two objects in his hands, hesitation filled his mind while a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

It reminded him of his early days as a delinquent; he was quite young and used to inspect his loot while thinking about how much he could get.

Harry looked at the objects in his hands before sighing.

Holding the objects drained his magic at a considerable rate, but it also made him feel empowered. He teleported several times back and forth and fired several energy shots with the scepter.

He thought about just escaping from Damian with the Tesseract; perhaps they would never be able to catch him.

Unfortunately, his rational side told him it was impossible. That man was a monster; they had tried to kill him many times but never even managed to touch him.

Besides, thinking about the trust that man had in letting him go and collect these things made his thoughts of rebellion immediately extinguish. It was best to honestly hand over the items and receive his reward.

His arrogance and grand ambitions were consumed during his years of captivity; now only caution remained.

After delivering the items to Damian, if he survived, he planned to emulate Damian.

He would find some troublesome country that no one cared about if he took it over and created a kingdom. With his knowledge, he would try to create more wizards. If he only allowed them to reach the first circle, they should be under his control.

"One day, when I have hundreds of wizards under my command..." Harry murmured and couldn't help but fall silent without completing the sentence.

He had to admit that he didn't dare to seek revenge, no matter how many wizards he had under his control.

Finally, he could only sigh.

With his thoughts finally clear, he began to run quickly towards Damian's mansion, enhancing his body with magic as he ran at high speeds.

He soon arrived in front of a 2-meter-high grass wall. Without thinking too much, he jumped over the wall before starting to approach the house.

He knew they must be looking for the objects in his hands, so it was best to avoid the main entrance.

At that moment, a giant tiger jumped in front of him. The tiger bared its teeth as its face turned terrifying, and a powerful growl came from its throat as it positioned itself to attack.

Damian, who was having a good time with his wives, was alerted to Harry's presence. He quickly asked for some time before appearing in front of him, already dressed.

"You did well to bring the items even if you hesitated a bit. I'm busy right now, so here's what I promised you," Damian said, making the Scepter and the Tesseract disappear from Harry's hands before a book appeared.

Damian waved his hand, causing Harry to disappear.

Harry was his plan to leak the methods to learn magic. It was inevitable that he would want to teach others, and this way, it was easy for it to leak out. And even if it didn't leak out, a little of his help could do the job.

Damian found the idea of simply publishing the methods of becoming a mage and letting people think he was some sort of savior distasteful.

He didn't want people to expect anything from him; once you give someone too much, they start to believe it's their right.

Anyway, the third circle is the limit and is not really a threat, even though there are many of them.

This allows him to consider his promise to Jane fulfilled and to provide some benefits to humans.
