Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Mess up, Roswaal and Fury
In front of the Stark Tower.
Android robots were guarding the portal tightly.
No monster would be able to leave the area after their numbers were reduced to a manageable level.
This was thanks to Avengers and other forces like X-men and such.
They had dealt with the problem quickly and professionally.
The android robots however, would only let the Avengers and some of the members in Shield that Tony trusted come in and out the portal.
They would still not allow the other forces to access the portal yet.
If anyone who hadn't got authorization from Jarvis would be dealt with accordingly.
Many news reporters were sent back politely but if they were being unreasonable.
They would be forced to leave.
Natasha and Clint were allowed to come and they could go inside the dungeon.
When they reached the tower.
They saw Steve and Peter looking around for Tony and Arthur.
Steve noticed them and came forward to greet them.
Peter wasn't close to them like he was close to Tony and Steve so he just played around with Jarvis.
'No people my age suck. I got one but he doesn't care about me at all.'
Peter felt lonely sometimes. He got friends from high school but they didn't know he was spiderman.
"Oh, hey, Nat. Have you finished reporting to Nick? And are you coming here to climb the dungeon? Where is anyone else?"
Steve greeted Natasha and Clint.
He knew both of them would come here to try the dungeon.
However, he didn't see anyone other than the two.
"Yes, I have and originally, Fury wanted to come here and climb the dungeon with us along with Coulson but something happened."
Natasha sighed.
Something that could make someone mentally strong as she sighed was something that he didn't want to get involved with no matter what.
Clint saw Steve's expression and he couldn't help but told him anyway.
"He had to deal with the government and the council gently. Otherwise, you knew who would make them shut up."
Steve heard that and he rolled his eyes at Clint.
He knew what he was doing. And it annoyed Steve a little bit.
That's why he didn't see Tony anywhere.
And Arthur as well.
They must have gone with Fury in order to negotiate with the government and the world security council.
"They haven't learnt their lesson yet?"
Steve shook his head.
"The last time they forced Tony to relocate the Avengers base to the moon. And what now?"
Steve could tell what Tony was going to do if he were to be forced again.
He was an inventor but they forgot easily that he could bite back.
"Do they want Tony to make a base inside the dungeon and basically seize the entire dungeon himself?"
Steve learnt his lesson that he should not force someone who had the best mind that could wipe out the whole world if he wanted to.
Fortunately, in this world. He had a wife and daughter so he won't do anything bad to it.
Natasha could only nod. Steve was someone who knew Tony better than anyone.
And she guessed that he may already have a base inside the dungeon.
If he didn't create it. He wouldn't be Tony Stark.
"Yes, I think the same as you but I can't do anything to stupidity.
Natasha shook her head then she thought that it was time to change the subject before Steve would be too stressed about it.
He hated to come and go to the moon.
"Let's worry about it later. Fury can hold his ground pretty well. Clint And I Clint are going inside the dungeon. Any tips you want to share?"
Natasha asked him with a smile. She threw all the headache away and would enjoy new excitement.
She knew that Steve could be trusted when it came to leadership and survival against the odds.
He should be able to give her valuable tips and information about the dungeon.
"All I can tell you is to prepare some gold because it will be very useful for survival. There is a civilization that is comparable to the Middle Ages of our world behind the portal. Once you enter, you two will receive a mission. You must complete it or you will not be able to return because you don't have a dungeon point."
Steve gave Natasha and Clint some important advice.
The two looked at each other and smiled happily.
"I think we should ask Fury for more money. What do you think, Natasha?"
"I think the same as you, Clint and If we bring back more gold from the dungeon, we can earn some extra money, right?"
They weren't poor but they could use more money.
Who didn't love more money in this day and ages.
At Tony's house on the top most floor of the Stark Tower.
Pepper watched both Emilia and Rem who was as meek as a kitten when they were in her presence.
Morgan was with them as she was curious about the two of them.
She wanted to know who these girls her stepbrother brought in. He had never had a friend before.
Peter wasn't included in the list because she forgot about him every so often.
For some reason, his presence was very thin compared to anyone else.
Pepper after watching them for a few seconds then she focused back on both her husband and her stepson.
She couldn't help but sigh again.
She couldn't remember how many times she sighed for the past week.
"So, You two are telling me that they are the native from the dungeon and you two thought it might be alright to bring them outside the dungeon without thinking if they would be okay or not to be exposed to a new environment or not?"
Both Arthur and Tony looked at each other. They couldn't find a word to say to her right now.
They were completely silent as they hadn't thought about that at all.
This was why in a family they needed both mother and father.
Mothers would always notice every little detail in life.
When she saw them showing such a clumsy side. She shook her head and then called both Emilia and Rem.
"Emilia and Rem, you two have to come with me. This is important."
Emilia and Rem looked at Arthur. He nodded at them and told them to follow her.
"She wants to check if your bodies are okay to be exposed in our world environment. You might have to be vaccinated."
"What is…vaccinated?"
Emilia asked him curiously. She had never been vaccinated before.
Rem also wanted to know.
"Please tell us, master. Rem feels like it is something we should be afraid of."
Her oni's instinct was spot on. They had never been injected with a sharp and pointy syringe before.
They would soon experience the true terror of a childhood nemesis.
The health care inspection.
Arthur went silent a little before he told them that they would know about it soon and they shouldn't worry about that.
"Somehow, Arthur-Goshujin-Sama makes Rem even more worried about it."
"Me too, Rem but we can't do anything can't we."
Emilia and Rem followed Pepper obediently inside Tony's health care room for the family.
Pepper looked at Arthur before she went inside the room with the two of them.
"What with this Goshujin-sama, Arthur Leywin Stark. We have to talk after this."
Arthur heard that and he nodded. Tony giggled nonstop. Happy in his misery.
"You are done for hahaha."
"I am going to tell her about your base, You can bet on it!"
"Eh, I haven't done anything to you!"
Arthur shook his head. What is done is done. He didn't have to be afraid as Rem was the one who wanted to call him like that.
He had a more important thing to talk about with Tony.
Morgan came to him and wanted to play with him however, when she remembered what he had done.
She let out a humph and went back to her room. She would ignore him until he knew what he did wrong.
"She is really angry at you for doing something dangerous, Young sir. If you have time please spoil her a little and she would not be mad at you anymore. :)"
Jarvis had been upgraded.
Now he had more ability to show emotions. which was good and terrifying at the same time.
"I understand, Jarvis. I have done something wrong of course I will make up for it later."
Arthur then talked to Tony.
"What are we going to do with the government and the world security council? They are going to demand that you give them this tower for the benefit of the world."
Tony laughed when he heard that question.
"They can try me again and see if I am going to make the dungeon my home base. They won't be able to do anything."
Arthur forgot who he was talking to. He was Tony Fucking Stark.
The super genius who could make iron monger from scraps.
Making a whole base of operation from the materials of the new world was a piece of cake to him.
And when he was about to ask another question about the government and the world security council.
Tony was contacted by Fury.
"Hey, how are you doing, my baldy?"
"Who is your fucking baldy mother fucker. Come to the National Assembly now. Those motherfuckers want you to transfer ownership of Stark Tower to them. I can't stand it anymore. Take care of them yourself."
Fury seemed to have lost his temper and even let Tony handle this matter himself.
"Haha, go ahead. I'm just getting bored. Prepare as many reporters as possible for me. Let them ask any questions they want. And I will answer them with my stepson."
Both Emilia and Rem got vaccinated and they didn't like it at all.
This was the first time in their life to be injected with a sharp and pointy needle.
Even though it wasn't as hurt as when fighting with a monster. The terror they felt when they faced such a terrifying needle almost made them faint due to primal fear.
"I–I will never have a health care inspection again."
"Rem, as well, Arthur-Goshujin-sama is so cruel to us…"
Both Emilia and Rem walked out of the health care inspection room and they went toward Arthur to complain to him.
However, when they saw that he wasn't in his fantasy clothing but in a formal suit.
They couldn't help but starstruck at him. He looked very elegant.
"Oh, you two have been vaccinated, I see."
Arthur smiled mischievously.
Both Rem and Emilia got out of trance and complained to him.
They knew that it was necessary but why did it have to be injected directly into the body?
Couldn't they make medicine instead.
"Injecting directly into the body is more effective."
Arthur explained to them about the medical advancement of this world.
He wasn't a doctor but he knew a few things about medical treatment.
"And if you two are still curious. You can ask Jarvis. He is like the spirit of our household. He is very kind and gentle."
Arthur then advised Emilia to ask Jarvis anything that could help her become a great ruler.
It was better than reading a book which was full of exaggerated stories.
"Where are you going? Can we come with you?"
Emilia saw that Arthur had to go somewhere. She couldn't help but feel insecure and wanted to go with him.
Rem also wanted to know. She was his maid and should be around him everywhere to serve him.
"I have to go to the National Assembly with Tony. The National Assembly is kind of like a place where Royal Selection took place but more annoying."
Hearing that Emilia became concerned and asked if he wanted her help. She knew that she might not be of much help but she still wanted to do whatever she could to repay him.
"Nah, I'd win hehe."
Arthur didn't even need to do anything because Tony was going to bombard them with his skillful lawyers and the right of being Avengers and having to pay for every construction price when the disaster came.
To be honest, he should be the world security himself but he hated anything to do with politics and such.
So he stayed put and just invented things that could cover the cost he had to pay for his billionaire philanthropist title.
"I'm leaving now. If you need anything, you can talk to Jarvis and he'll give you some advice on what to do."
"Yes, You can ask this Jarvis anything young misses :)"
Jarvis was ready to serve them with a big emoted smile.
Arthur then left the house and went to meet Tony in the private parking lot.
Emilia and Rem had nothing to do right now.
Pepper, after checking their body condition and vaccinating them, went to her office to prepare for the upcoming big headache.
She wanted to host them but she couldn't. So she let them be for the moment.
Morgan took a nap during the day and would not wake up until the afternoon or evening, so both of them were now lonely and didn't know what to do next.
"Do you two young misses want to try going into the young sir's room? ;) You two might find something interesting in there. And don't worry, Jarvis already asks for permission and Young sir agrees."
Emilia and Rem were tempted and they couldn't hold in their curiosity.
Jarvis then led them to his room. They would see what kind of person he was and how he lived in this world.
…
First Floor Dungeon, Re:Zero world.
Strange had become the vice chief of the royal magician court.
He was satisfied with this position. He could take over Roswaal by force but in doing so would make everything become more complicated.
Roswaal could only watch him rise to the position helplessly.
He was so much stronger than he thought.
"What is that mystic arts thing? Is It even more powerful than magic?"
Roswaal didn't know anything about mystic arts even if he tried to find information about it.
"I should go back to the mansion and ask Beatrice."
She might know something about it. She was his master creation after all.
Strange looked at Roswaal.
He felt something was off about Roswaal. Something told him that Roswaal had bad thoughts about Arthur, but he didn't know what it was.
However, as the Vice Chief of the Royal Magician Court, he could find out more about Roswaal.
He probably never thought that someone like him would appear, so he carelessly left behind so many traces.
The traces were there for more than four hundred years. He never thought he would be that old.
"Yao was also very old, and those who are very old sometimes do strange and dangerous things. I need to keep a close eye on this."
Strange followed him back to the mansion and he couldn't even sense him.
This was his advantage because he didn't use magic but dimensional power instead.
Nick Fury wasn't having any of it.
He was so fucking annoyed by the government and the world security councils.
He had to stand his ground so they wouldn't think they had it over him.
No weakness must be shown here.
"You should talk to him then."
After a long persuasion.
Fury knew that his effort was in vain and thought that letting things blow up might be a better choice.
'These greedy blood sucking motherfuckers wouldn't listen to me anyway. I will let that man deal with them.'
They only thought about themselves.
And for the last resort.
He threatened them with the fact that they could no longer control the Avengers or any Shield Agents.
It was a terrible feeling but Fury had to admit that Shield could only keep on operating because of Stark pocket money.
And the money that the government sent to them was so little compared to his money.
'Money is also power, Like a certain bat had said.'
"You all had forced him to the point he had to relocate his base to the moon. What now? Do you want him to relocate his base to the dungeon?"
All the council members felt angry when he mentioned it.
They could no longer do anything to the Avengers because their base of operation was outside of the world.
It was out of their jurisdiction.
Alexander Pierce, one of the councils narrowed his eyes.
He was a high ranking member of the Hydra who successfully infiltrated the world security councils and Shield.
He was the one who started the idea of seizing Stark Tower for the world security council.
Even though he would just take it for himself after that.
He was angry at Fury for purging his people inside Shield and now he had no clue about what was going inside.
So he had to be careful when he wanted to do something that related to Shield and the Avengers.
"We understand your concern but we still have to make Tony Stark transfer the ownership of the Stark Tower to us. It is for the betterment of the world."
Pierce would never stop until he got what he wanted. He must have that tower for himself.
'Betterment of the world my black ass!'
Fury didn't say anything further and left the National Assembly.
He then called Tony by the untraceable phone.
He basically told him to fuck them up. And Tony was ready to release his bloody hounds called media and news reporters on them.
Fury then went silent a little before he asked him a question that he was dying to know.
"Do you…have any plan on making a new base inside the dungeon?"
Fury asked even though he already knew the answer. He must confirm it from his month to be sure.
"I already have one inside. And it is so magnificent that the base on the moon could not hold a candle to it."
Tony giggled like a mischievous boy who successfully messed with his best friend.
He knew why he asked that though.
"Do you want one as well? If you want one you have to speak with Arthur. I am planning to give that base to him!"
Tony already had his family and didn't like adventure much. He would come and go inside the dungeon but only on the first floor.
He knew that Arthur's time to shine was when he was inside the dungeon.
It was like he was born for it. So he wanted to support him if possible.
"You crazy motherfucker! I know it, I will speak with your stepson later."
Fury had a headache again even though he had become a dungeon climber.
He cut the call and left everything to Tony. However, he got a call from Coulson.
"What is it?"
"Director, I have a report about Natasha and Clint…"
Fury didn't think much of it and asked him what about them.
He thought that they might call him because they were going to go inside the dungeon. And they might need something like more gadgets.
However, it wasn't what he had thought.
"They have withdrawn a lot of money to buy gold and jewelry. They said it was for the mission inside the dungeon."
"H–How much?"
Nick Fury knew if Coulson said a lot of money. It must be on a very big scale.
"A–About one million dollars…"
"Motherfuckers!"
Fury almost fainted from blood pressure.
Does anyone want to be a director of Shield in his place!
He wants to quit!
