New Delhi, Bharat, December 20, 1942

Aryan teleported back to Bharat after the successful mission in Germany, the Tesseract securely contained in a specially crafted case. As he returned to his office, he was greeted by Athena's holographic form, shimmering in the morning light.

"Aryan, welcome back," Athena said, her voice calm and reassuring.

Aryan nodded, holding up the case containing the Tesseract. "Athena, take this case. It contains the Tesseract. Begin the detailed analysis and research on it."

Athena's eyes glowed with a hint of excitement. "Understood, it will be done promptly."

Aryan's expression turned serious. "Also, I have brought back several Nazi captives. Along with the irredeemable criminals in our custody, they will serve as subjects for the human trials of the alchemical potions. Ensure that the trials are conducted with the utmost precision."

Athena acknowledged his instructions. "Understood, Aryan. The trials will commence immediately."

Aryan handed over the case to Athena, who carefully took it into her custody. "Also, I have left the shadow soldiers in Germany. They are to gather intelligence and search for a child named Eric Lennsherr or Max Eisenhart. He could be a valuable ally."

Athena processed the information swiftly. "I will monitor their progress and provide any necessary support."

As Aryan walked through the bustling streets of New Delhi, he felt a renewed sense of purpose. The Jewish families he had rescued were being settled into their new homes, and the talented individuals among them were already being integrated into various projects. Their skills and knowledge would be instrumental in the nation's development.

Global Reactions

After the sudden pullout of Bharat from the war effort in 1942 had already sent shockwaves across the globe. However, negotiations with the British, show of support from America and Hydra's aggressive actions, collectively led to Bharat's selective participation in the war later in the year, which began to balance the scales.

United States

In the Oval Office, President Franklin D. Roosevelt sat with his advisors and Captain America. "Aryan's actions are a beacon of hope," Roosevelt said. "The rescue of Jewish families and the destruction of Hydra bases are being celebrated in the media. This could boost morale significantly."

Captain America smiled and nodded. "His efforts are starting to change public perception about metahumans. We should consider collaborating more with him in our fight against Hydra."

An advisor added, "Yes, Mr. President, their recent actions have been a positive sign, we should also consider the strategic advantages of closer relationship with Bharat."

Secretary Hull nodded as he said, "Yes, I agree about benefit of closer relationship with Bharat, however we should also consider the negative perception of mutants and the threat they pose to us."

They continued their discussion on the strategic advantage and disadvantage of collaboration with Bharat and its metahumans more closely as they moved on to topics regarding the ongoing scenario of war and plans for future strikes against the Nazi, Japanese forces in Asia and the status of the top secret Manhattan project.

Soviet Union

In the Kremlin, Joseph Stalin met with his top advisors. "Bharat's independence is concerning," Stalin said, "but Aryan's actions against the Nazis align with our interests. We must monitor this closely."

An advisor replied, "His success could inspire similar movements within our sphere. We need to be prepared."

Stalin nodded with serious expression as he said, "Yes we should be cautious in our approach to Bharat."

Germany

In a hidden Hydra base, Red Skull confronted Arnim Zola. "Damnit Zola!! How the hell did our bases suddenly vanish with so many of our operatives either missing or dead?"

Zola coldly replied, "It happened due to that Zemo's failure in completing simple tasks. Due to his actions Aryan, a powerful metahuman got involved in this and the results are before you."

"Tsk….These interventions have thwarted our plans and demoralized our troops," Red Skull growled. "We must find a way to counter him."

Zola, adjusting his glasses, responded, "Our research into the Tesseract must be accelerated. We need a new strategy to regain our advantage."

Japan

As an Axis power, Japan was wary of Bharat's newfound independence. However, Aryan's focus on European theaters of war meant that Japan's immediate concerns were lessened, though they remained vigilant as the intentions of the Bharatiya in Asia remained unclear to them.

China

Chiang Kai-shek's government in China saw Bharat's actions as a positive development. Aryan's efforts against the Axis powers were seen as a step towards a more balanced global power structure. They hoped that the new Bharat will cooperate with them in repelling the Japanese forces.

Middle East

Nations in the Middle East had mixed reactions. While some saw Bharat's independence as a potential model for their own aspirations, others were cautious, fearing instability.

Aryan's selective participation in the war, combined with his extraordinary feats, gradually turned the tide in favor of the Allies. The Nazis, shocked and struggling to adapt, found themselves increasingly on the defensive. The world watched in awe as Bharat, under Aryan's influence, emerged as a pivotal player in the global conflict.

New Delhi, Bharat, December 27, 1942

Aryan stood in his office, the morning sun casting long shadows across the room. Athena's holographic form materialized before him, her expression reflecting a mix of excitement and satisfaction.

"Aryan, I have news," Athena began, her voice steady. "The first trials of the alchemical potions have been mostly successful. The subjects showed remarkable resilience and enhanced abilities. The precision of the trials has ensured minimal side effects."

Aryan's eyes gleamed with approval. "Excellent, Athena. This is a significant breakthrough. Ensure that the data is meticulously recorded and analyzed. We need to understand every aspect of these enhancements."

Athena nodded. "Already in progress. Additionally, the integration of the magical ley lines into our communication infrastructure has been successful. The network is now more robust and secure, allowing for instantaneous and encrypted communication across vast distances."

Aryan smiled, a rare expression of genuine satisfaction. "This will give us a strategic advantage. What about the arcane computer prototype?"

Athena's eyes sparkled with pride. "The prototype has been built and initial tests are promising. It harnesses the power of the ley lines to perform complex calculations at unprecedented speeds. This could revolutionize our technological capabilities."

Aryan took a deep breath, feeling the weight of their accomplishments. "We are on the brink of a new era, Athena. Continue to monitor the progress and ensure that all systems are functioning optimally. We cannot afford any setbacks."

Athena's form shimmered as she acknowledged his command. "Understood, Aryan. I will keep you updated on all developments."

As Aryan looked out over the city, he felt a renewed sense of purpose. The successful trials and technological advancements were just the beginning. With Athena by his side, he was confident that they could overcome any challenge and lead Bharat into a future of unparalleled strength and innovation.
