Chapter 4: Constantly doing work

Chapter 4: Constantly doing work

Waking up, and seeing my situation made me panic slightly.

But I eventually calmed down.

Panicking did me nothing.

Anxiety wouldn't help me.

I want to just move on with the plans the,' Rational' me made.

Just don't think about it.

Easier said than done.

Whenever I looked, it was an unfamiliar environment.

I didn't know these people.

I didn't know how to even get to school.

What the fuck should I do with my life now…

Shouldn't transmigration make me happy?

I have a system which will probably help me get stronger.

I know events that can make me rich.

How to get stronger…

But everything felt so shallow.

I felt like I didn't belong.

I then decided to follow the simplest plan the 'rational' me made to find Peter parker.

I made and printed some posters saying that I was going to be selling old spare radio parts and put them around town. Based on what I knew from the tech nerd, even if he is currently 11, he would be going around dumpster diving to get parts to build stuff.

I then went and bought a couple old radios (for above the usual prices) , and decided that it was time to go and put the posters around.

Now I need to wait...which I obviously cannot do, so I decided to go and get memberships at a gym which will teach boxing to kids.

I also decided to get a lot of textbooks for me to study from.

I previously studied in the first year of the IB curriculum in Singapore, which from what I understand is far more advanced than the US curriculum in some specific courses, cough math.

I was 17 in my past life, so I will be continuing my education. How will I do that? Hire private tutors of course...nah, I would rather study myself. If I really do need help, I can then hire tutors.

In my past life I did 6 subjects, Math, Biology and Chemistry at a higher level, Business, Spanish and Language and Literature at the standard level.

I plan on continuing all these languages, and also learning physics at a higher level.

While I would barely focus on my languages since it is unimportant, I will still learn it. It is not that I hate the subjects or something.

Anyway, I am not a nerd. This is solely to kill time for me, while feeling like I am doing something...something to meet my family.

I obviously played games as well, to feel less like shit...did not really help.

Gaming used to be fun since I played with friends. Sure, single player RPG's were fun but…it was those 3am calls with the boys that made me happy.

I couldn't even be distracted gaming since I only felt like I was on a clock.

I continued this cycle for about 1 week before Peter found me.

...

"Hello, I heard this is a place where I can find some spare radio parts." He asked politely after I opened the door.

Just as I expected, Peter Parker looked like a young Tom Holland.

"Yes this is the place, come on in." I said as I led the hesitant Peter into my house. He seemed a little weirded out that a kid so many years older than him led him into the house.

I tried to hide my fanboy eyes and focus on the topic of conversation at hand.

"Now I only have 1 condition: if you want the radio parts, answer a couple of questions about them and you can have it."

He seemed to become more confident as we began to talk about one of his strong suits, technology.

"What is a printed circuit board?"

" Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the foundational building block of most modern electronic devices..." [Authors note: Clearly I copied this from google]

...

This is how Peter and I bonded and talked about electronics for a couple hours. I made sure to know everything there is to know about radio's just so I could impress Peter, I obviously wanted to be his friend.

Soon, Peter had to leave though, which was sad for me as I had to come back into reality instead of talking with a great guy, the only guy I talked to properly after coming here, we obviously exchanged numbers (with a phone I had before hand).

But that isn't really a big problem, I plan to talk with all major cast members, it will make me feel more at 'home' in the MCU verse.

As Peter left and I was about to move on with my schedule, I saw a change on my status panel, not regarding the [Notifications], but regarding the [Rewards] Section. There was a +1 pop up there.

I pressed on it, and was slightly surprised.

[Reward:

Item: Special Radio

Reason for reward: Becoming Peter's second 'true' friend]

I then pressed on the radio and more details regarding it popped up.

[Item: Special Radio

Rank: C

Description: A radio which can hear conversation between the NYPD 15 minutes before they actually happen ]

It seems like becoming friends with the Main Cast is 1 way of getting rewards.

As of right now, there are not a lot of people I can meet.

Black Widow and Hawkeye is basically impossible unless I join shield, which I will not do.

Rhodey and the Falcon also is not really possible at the moment unless I join the army, which they won't let a 12 year old do.

Hulk...I don't really want to meet him right now even if I could.

It is also hard for Wanda and Quick Silver unless I join Hydra or something.

Dr. Strange shouldn't exist yet, and I don't want to exactly meet the ancient one. She will probably try to keep me with her, knowing she can't see my future with the time-stone and all.

The only probable is Tony Stark, AKA Iron Man.

Off the top of my head there are 3 ways I can meet him.

1- Get an internship at his company

2- Become a reporter and annoy him into talking to me

3- Get close to Pepper and Happy and slime my way into their inner-circle

Right now, it is probably best with the 1st way. Tony Stark only respects game with game, unless you want him to treat you like a kid.
