[+]Chapter 85

I sat on my sofa as I heard the news of Tony racing like a maniac on the racing field, it seems like I can get to know him much faster than I thought, the timeline is a little bit different from the original MCU.

In this timeline, Peter is not a kid anymore and is currently struggling to support himself with his expenditures and his stretched-out life while Tony has started acting out much earlier than expected.

Kind of makes me feel vulnerable but I guess it's okay since I feel I also messed up this world by bringing in curses to the world or perhaps it's someone else.

I don't know what I am going to do so for now its one step at a time, I haven't found the clues about Punisher yet so I can't rope him in, but I always keep my eyes open for any curse users so that I can indoctrinate them and pull them into my organization lest they became evil or whatever.

I opened the door to my apartment and lo and behold! there stood my best student in midtown high and the only friendly neighbourhood spider man himself.

"Huh! Professor Tom,"

"Haha! It's good to see you, come on in, put the pizza on the table" I told him and he did so, I could feel his eyes on me all the way from the other room.

Damn! Talk about a spider-sense, he must have felt surprised seeing me here,

"How is your life treating you Peter?" I asked him with a smile, to which he felt a little awkward.

"Uhmm, it's going great, not that great but great you know! I am a student of the empire state university and have recently started working as a pizza delivery man," he answered awkwardly.

Perhaps he isn't as dumb as I thought and knows that I know who he is or has some idea about it.

"Oh, is that so, I am also proud to announce to you that I will be teaching at Empire state university from time to time, anyways, How are your uncle and aunt?" I asked as I motioned for him to sit down on the sofa, though he looked eager to go back since from what I gathered, his boss isn't too keen on being a passionate kind manager.

"They are alright sir, Uhm, if there is nothing else, I would like to-"

"There is something actually," I interrupted Peter as he was about to wear his scooter helmet.

"Pardon?"

"I want you to be my lab assistant, I will even throw in a good enough salary for you, far more than what this" I pointed at the pizza, "job is giving you."

For a moment the two of us became quiet as Peter began to contemplate, no doubt he was assessing if he could manage his superhero life and civilian life this way.

"The office hours are much more flexible than the ones you currently have and you can have the chance to join any large company once you finish with me," I put out my hand.

"Do we have a deal?"

Peter looked me in the eyes and asked, "Why are you so nice to me?"

I smiled as I looked into his eyes, "Because you are special," then I added, "and you need it Pete."

Peter finally relented after a few more words and now I have myself a good enough lab assistant.

As for how I finally got to be a professor at the empire state university, well, let's just say that money can get you a lot of things.

After discussion with Peter, I let him leave in peace once he helped me finish the pizza that I had ordered, I also got to know a few more things such as the Mary I had been staying with from Hell kitchen had also been admitted to the same university so that's new.

I laid down again once Peter was gone, today was kinda my day off as I feel like I need to keep some balance between my new life so that I don't get loose

**ring**

**ring**

I took the phone and saw that it was an unknown number, wonder who it is, I picked up the call to find out that I have somehow been invited by one Tony Stark for his birthday party.

Perhaps it's because I have some of his shares or maybe it's just Jarvis pulling me in for some reason.

I got up again knowing that I couldn't go to the upcoming party looking like a clown.

"Guess it's time I get myself a few suits," I thought as I took my car keys and left.

Coulson PoV:

The man named Tom Warden was a mystery, I didn't have much respect for him until I saw him in action, perhaps Fury was right all along.

We need heroes to battle what's coming for us, while we were busy trying to find and eliminate outer threats, we failed to recognize the monsters that hid under our beds…..literally.

I gave the glasses and ammo we received from Tom Warden on the desk before Fury as he looked at them.

"So these are called cursed bullets, and have you seen their effects in action."

"Yes sir! Only objects that have cursed energy can effectively kill the curses, The magician has advised us to use the things other than cursed bullets with caution as we are currently unable to utilize cursed energy," I concluded as Fury started fiddling with a knife.

He seemed to have taken a liking to it as I saw him putting it on his person.

"Duly noted, you may take what you want for yourself and get some of the other top agents to equip themselves with these, it's time we see how we do against a curse."
