—John"s POV—After taking a good rest and meditation, I woke up earlier than usual because of the excitement and nervousness I have from being Shang Chi"s disciple. Even though in my past life I only have Comic references regarding his lifestyle and details (Wiki), as I didn"t manage to transmigrate before his TV series was even released.
Since I still have two hours to spare before the family breakfast I start, reorganizing my projects before I start the Hero business in the coming years which will happen in half a year or so before Peter gets bitten which is also a few years before Iron Man starts the whole d.a.m.n MCU arc. (Earth-199999)
My Current achievable project so far goes as;
1.) Gain the abilities I will need the most at the beginning of my Hero career such as:
[Kinetic Duplication] from James Madrox (Multiple Man), so I can train hardcore like how Naruto did it with his clones and make other personas required.
[Time Force] from Damien Tyrp who James Madrox will encounter at Central Park anytime soon so that if some dude time traveled and change something I won"t be affected by the changes in the time stream.
[Dark Force] from Tyrone Johnson (Cloak) so I can just easily hide in the target"s shadows if I want to absorb abilities while not forgetting.
[Light Force] from Tandy Bowen (Dagger), to satisfy the hunger from having the [Dark Force].
2.)Build the base with the completed AI project. (Bat Cave!)
3.) Establishing the team and company. (Long term) Though I have already a lot of ideas on what to start selling without making a Dartboard target on me coming from Kingpin, Osborn corp, etc… you know the big leagues, because I don"t think I will survive, facing against them this early on my life. I"m still an 11-year-old kid for Truck-kun"s sake!
We"ll see how far it goes from there since we have to take it step-by-step and being hasty gets me nowhere, and I learned that s.h.i.t from Flash where he made the Flashpoint s.h.i.t and everything goes haywire.
Sebastian knocks on my room to check if I already woke up, washed and prepared myself for school and him noticing I haven"t been responding for a while barged in and scolded me for not paying attention, checking if I did had enough sleep last night, me being busy since I was so focused on reorganizing my plans coded in Dragon Language from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim since that game and creator doesn"t exist in this universe.
Even though there is a lot of similarities in the current and my past life that is also one of the main reasons why I made my mindscape based on Skyrim"s landscape just to remind me of my past life and one of the best offline game with the best mods ever.
—Time Skip to School—
*Sigh*
With a heavy sigh, the bell rang for the lunch break, I don"t even know why I keep torturing myself by studying in high school all over again.
"Dude you sound like my old man whenever you sigh like that…" 『Ned』
"Yeah bro, everything alright?" 『Peter』
"You sure got your brain checked after the accident last month?" 『Jean』
The gang asked me worriedly though I can feel a vein popping in my head like in the anime just from the question coming from the gang, since I can"t exactly break it to them that I have already studied and learned anything that is to learn in until senior high, so I calmly replied to them.
"Nahhh, all good just that I get to meet my G.o.dfather later tonight and I don"t know how to feel about it… By the way Pete how"s it going with the compiler program I asked you bout?" 『John』
(Since I might disappoint him because I already gained the person I"ll learn martial arts from.) 『John 』
"Oh, I think I can have it by New Year… why the rush?" 『Peter』
"Haha nothing, it"s a secret, for now, I"ll tell once everything is complete." 『John』
I hurriedly changed the topic to my and Peter"s secret project which received a glare from Jean and Ned due to them feeling left out of the conversation. Which they asked:
"What is it you guys working on that I and Jean can"t join on huh? Is it 007 stuff? Or is it you guys are just gay or something?" 『Ned』
"Yeah what"s all this secrecy?" 『Jean』
I can already feel my blood pressure almost reaching its peak just from Ned"s last question, and I kept calming myself by saying inwardly "All in due time, all in due time…" After calming down I replied slowly to Ned and Jean while looking all grim and serious.
"I promise you at least within 4 years, if I don"t explain myself regarding this then I"ll tell you my deepest darkest secret…" 『John』
"Hmm… do you dare swear an Unbreakable Vow like in the Harry Potter"s? 『Ned』
Ned interrupted me in my dialogue with a dare on an Unbreakable Vow (from the Harry Potter series) while holding his right hand out and made Jean as the witness. Releasing another deep sigh and gripping with a right hand on Ned"s held out hand with pencils as a subst.i.tute for a wand on our left hand. (A/N: Nerds!)
"I Markly John Wayne, solemnly swear if within 4 years I don"t tell my best friend Ned and Jean the purpose of all my secrecy related to Peter and my Projects will have to tell them my deepest darkest secret as compensation." 『John』
Jean slowly nodded and wrote a note in replacement of the debt jade slip like how Meng Hao deals with other people to tie karma in ISSTH (I Shall Seal The Heavens – Wuxia Novel) and kept it in our "Oath Box" which she keeps.
I felt another vein popped in my head because most of the slips inside the box where all of my promises to the gang and then I chanted myself another calming dharma just to pa.s.s through difficult times in p.u.b.erty such as these moments.
"I have already gone through these phases calm down and know it"ll pa.s.s. They are not even mentally the same age as me since I was already 22 when I transmigrated and adding my current age I"m now 33 years old…
Reminding myself I"d be old enough to be their fathers, I slowly calmed down" I swear once Ned knows about Peters superhuman secrets and Jean activating her X-genes they"ll be begging me to be a part of my team and company HAHAHAHA!
Anyways I spent most of the time in cla.s.ses thinking about my progress and practicing [Telekinesis (Black)] on pencils and erasers in my desk without anybody noticing, ever since I managed to reach (Green) level on [Telepathy] I managed to unlock [Telekinesis (Black)] within its skill tree.
I have also gained an idea such as applying a Skyrim based skill such as the "FUS RO DAH" (Unrelenting Force) which is the draconic shout related to [Telekinesis]. Since I have all these [Otherworldly Knowledge] why not put it to use? That led me to make a huge library inside my mindscape to doc.u.ment all my [Otherworldly Knowledge].
—Time Skip Home—
After my daily routine in Manhattan, I managed to find myself a good start for my bat cave and it"s the south-east corner of the Tompkins Park where it is a few meters away from our huge Wayne Mansion which is the whole block where the supposed Village View Housing corp and Somtum Der, NY exist in my past life.
So I had Sebastian made the whole place renovated according to my designs based on my past life which is the same as the Batcave as Batman and had the men related to building/constructing of my base disappear without Sebastian knowing.
I have already known for a while that Sebastian is reporting my activities to my parents though I don"t mind it that much and he is not really informed of the bigger picture and just bits and pieces of the plan where I let them know what I what them to know.
Though I know its harsh I learned from the best of the senpai"s from the novels I"d read from my past life, even though I can"t inform them (Sebastian and Parents) or others (the gang) such stuff or else they"ll just send me to a psychiatric ward or mental hospital just from the in-depth details
I had Sebastian start the renovation of the Bat cave from the designs I"d given him since he said he had the connections to finish the project at hand, and while he was busy regarding the base I was also occupied meeting my G.o.dfather which was introduced by my parents, coming to the guest from the living room where I discussed the Bat cave stuff with Sebas and was given another shock.
—3rd POV—
"Janneth, Conan where is that prodigious son you have given birth to so I can give him pointers and end this farce? "『Unknown』
"Why you so hasty man, it"s been a while since we last met, why not catch up for a bit?" 『Conan』
"Hmph, I bet he"s busy gambling away his stuff again and lose everything one round I betcha!" 『Janneth』
"Gahaha! Same old same old brother! You know you shouldn"t bet everything without me or you"ll lose it all!" 『Conan』
"Hahaha, this time for sure I know I will WIN John! 『Unknown』
"Alright enough you two, he"s here…" 『Janneth』
She interrupted the short banter of the two upon hearing the creaking noise made of an opening door from the main door towards the living room.
"G-good evening G.o.dfather! If I"d known I wouldn"t even have asked back in the shop to beg you to accept me as your disciple…" 『John』
—Conan POV—
Pausing for a moment and taking all the information gained. It seems that John and his G.o.dfather already met each other and got acquainted for a while through different circ.u.mstances. Still, it took out most of the thrill and drama my wife and I were expecting in this meet up! What the h.e.l.l!?
I was expecting old b.a.s.t.a.r.d here to be shocked and amazed by the talent my son shows him and beg me to make my son his disciple and give me benefits d.a.m.n it! Either way, all is well even though everything is not going all according to plan.
"Have you two met each other?" 『Conan』
"Well, we kinda b.u.mp each other unexpectedly dad… Hahaha!! " 『John』
"b.u.mp each other? More like begged me!" 『Unknown』
John slowly whispered to me the happening of how they both got acquainted and, made me popped a vein in my head while my wife giggles lovingly at the side at the coincidence happening right in front of us. Hmmm… since Shang Chi has already considered my son as a disciple it won"t do if he just gets it easy training by this douche side without hardship…
"Well then without further ado John, your G.o.dfather and mentor Shang Chi. Shang Chi your G.o.dson John and apprentice. Since both of you are already acquainted, I bet the old b.a.s.t.a.r.d already has plans prepared for you regarding his exams to pa.s.s as a "Direct Disciple" of his yeah? So let"s get it started" 『Conan』
