6 Explaining to Alfred

*3 years later, Knight mansion*

The last 3 year have been busy and at the same time fun and peaceful.

Because of the blessing of Gaia, I healed up completely in just a week and had a celebration. Alfred and others took really good care of me. At the first month he was near me nearly 24 hours not letting me do anything drastic like studying or exercise. So I mainly worked on processing my memories and energy , both elemental and twilight.

Menu really helps me out advancing skills. I got acting for, well, acting like a kid and poker face from mostly deadpanning on Tony's jokes. Lying is not something I am proud of, especially to Alfred, but I do need to practice it for the future.

Visiting my parents grave was really hard. I wasn't even able to utter a single word for minutes. After gathering enough willpower, I was finally able to let my feelings out and cried myself to sleep. The next day I woke up to realize as if a burden has lifted from me.

After the first year, I mainly focused on learning with slight exercise. Apparently all animals were friendly to me so I had fun chasing birds and squirrels. My hair turned a bit silvery representing a mix between my father and mother.

Is this what they call protagonist like hair. I thought those only happen in anime. Speaking of anime I had a mild shock when I viewed myself in mirror. For some reason I thought I looked like a mix between Tatsuya Shiba and Kirito from SAO.... HOW?? First they are both anime characters and second they are Japanese. THEN HOW? I call bull#sh@t. Alfred's voice yelled at me for using a bad language word. Oops, guess I yelled out loud.

Alfred has been a little concerned about my behavior ever since I visited my parent's graves. I am guessing my hair took a drastic change then. He probably thinks I am a mutant since I sometimes try to hide stuff. Probably when I am trying to use telekinesis and the fact he got freaked out when I was roaming with a snake around me. Yea, that probably nearly gave him a heart attack.

Oracle also helped me out analyzing history with other records of any comics I may have read as a failsafe I cannot remember them. Other than that I have tried recreating the arc reactor but it will still take time. Even being blessed by Gaia, apparently biology isn't my forte. I have enough knowledge to create SSS, spider bite as well as extremis if I want to, but I don't need them because of elemental body.

My martial arts training has been going good. I mostly do it while leaving my clone in bed at night. I can mostly create 1 clone with minimal movements right now. Damn that's hard. Guess that's why she said she would get me a teacher. Or maybe it's just my age.

My power of will has improved but it probably also depends on my mental fortitude. I am probably naïve and not focused enough to do it.

My chakra control is a bit better. I can enhance my senses about 50% of my original. I can also manipulate my bioelectricity to stick on walls like Spiderman for about 30 minutes. I cannot stand vertically though so I'm still trying.

I have also made some friends believe it or not. First was actually Sharon Carter herself. I was so shocked I almost let my poker face split. Almost. Apparently both father and Alfred were friends with Peggy Carter courtesy of Mr. Stark and Jarvis. She used to visit me with Sharon when I was about 2 after which she couldn't due to job reasons. Probably SHIELD. I won't be surprised if she came here because Fury asked her to monitor me.

Speaking of Fury, apparently mother Gaia had to create some trouble for them and some other beings to mask my aura when I woke up. They probably know of my birth but not where I am. That's actually a bit scary. After resolving myself to deal with them in the future, my power of will got a boost. It really is dependent on my mental fortitude. Anyway, being the paranoid man Fury is, he even added a scenario of the world resetting itself because of pollution. I mean, what is this? Prelude to Godzilla Earth?

I started training seriously after that. Alfred and others got a bit worried at first but got used to it.

Tony also occasionally drops by some books on engineering and other topics. Guess he found out I completed high school material already. Not that I needed thanks to Oracle getting MIT's study material and the Galvan memory bank. The memory bank is still sealed and opens according to my progress according to Oracle. But still we only made the prototype reactor from Iron man 1. Tony's is hands down genius. No questions asked. I was able to create an concentrated energy source based on solar and natural energy that I absorb. Works really well.

Away from studies, the second friend I made was Harry Osborn. We got along really well. He was a bit shy and scared , probably because of Norman neglecting him. But I was able to get him have some self confidence. I also got both of their DNA to see if they have any hereditary disease and they did. I was able to make a cure for Harry since it was still in initial stages. But in case of uncle Norman, I was only able to develop a suppressor rather than a cure. Hope this let's him focus more on it than the SSS.

Uncle Norman looked like young Willem Dafoe( Spiderman trilogy) while Harry looked like Dane DeHaan (Amazing Spiderman 2).

The last were actually the Storm siblings. Their parents were a good friend of mine but passed away in a car accident. We were in similar situations so became friends quickly. Both of them were still in high school. Sue was bubbly but a bit strict with Johnny, who was a ball of energy. Their future powers really represent them well.

….Weird, first Stark's then Storm's and then mine's...I have to get Oracle on the job. This is too suspicious.

Hydra was still hidden but Pierce really god job infiltrating SHIELD. Hand has a coalition with Kingpin not only in new York but many places in USA. The reason Kingpin has not been caught is because not only the police and govt. was on his payrolls but even SHIELD has a source of income from him.

Mutants are not that well known right now. Which is weird because Magneto has wrecked the White House once. Govt. itself is trying to find and experiment on them. I was collecting both General Ross and Stryker's misdeeds with other politicians as well. Senator Kelly is also on this list. Essex and Sublime are blank slates. There is an Essex corporation but he is nowhere to be found. I'm doubtful if Sublime and U-men even exist or not, I hope not but apocalypse gives me doubts. Even though storm was a part of X-Men, they have not met Apocalypse yet. The world's getting confusing. His tomb is laid with Celestial tech, because of which I still can't find it.

Now to the gacha... the normal tickets are rubbish. I got 3 bottles of mineral water each month. THREE IN A ROW! and the last one gave me a yoyo made of gold with Spider silk thread.... rubbish. Even Oracle is laughing at my luck.

On the forth month I got a gun which shoots silver bullets with about 30 ammo.

…. I completely forgot about vampires and such. Another thing added to Oracle's search list I guess.

I then focused completely on combining tickets to get rare one for which I have to wait 8 WHOLE MONTHS. The first skill, or now a perk was friendly aura. Apparently the animals loved me because of their connection to nature whereas humans have stepped a bit far from it. Only sorcerers and mutants are now capable of even minute interactions. So this was a big gift.

The second I got after another 8 months was a 1000 RECOVERY POTIONS. Though the amount the heal gets lower the stronger one gets from human level but if they have a healing factor, it enhances it for some time.

The third I gained gave me charismatic aura. It improves others impression of you quite a bit. It combined with friendly aura to form the perk aura. It works like aura of Lucario from Pokémon. Still hard to use but I'm getting the hang of it more than chakra apparently. Maybe because it is a perk.

But the fourth was the best one. I got a bike. No not a normal one, but not the Bat-pod either. IT WAS THE FREAKING BIKE FROM TRON. Boy was I jumping around in excitement. I ended up duking the whole night in the null void and didn't notice the time nor the fact that my shadow clone disappeared. Apparently the mansion was on alarm trying to find me and were going to call the police when I came back. I was grounded for a week. Tony was laughing at me for getting grounded in my own house.

But getting the bike did have some advantages. Apparently the file under Vigilance finally opened, and it had schematics from the proto tool and uniform to anti- gravity stealth jets. Boy did I win a jackpot. But Oracle's next announcement broke my heart.

'Congrats on turning 10 Alex. The baby gift period is now over and the real system starts now. From now on you will not get any tickets for free so you have to rightfully earn it, just like real life.'

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...." and I started throwing a tantrum for about 15 minutes.

'This is important Alex as you already have many skills and you haven't even mastered them, more would be just a burden, and the updated one for all is complicated as well so you should focus on these only from now on.' she explained.

"*sigh* Fine, fine I understand, I will work hard."

Today I also decided to give Alfred an explanation because I don't want to keep him in the dark, and my training is about to start too so I need an alibi.

He knocked on my study's door and came in" You called master Alex?"

"Yes Alfred I want to talk about something, are you free?"

"Anything for you young master please continue."

"*sigh* This is gonna sound weird but stay with me. I take you have some idea about what I want to talk about?", I asked.

"...Indeed, I think it is about your powers isn't it, please don't flow with those mutant banishing hypocrites, they are just a jealous bunch, you are still the young master I raised and serve."

I was not worried about him hating me, I knew he would accept me but still hearing those words made me feel a huge burden got lift off my shoulders.

"..Thanks Alfred, that means a lot", I replied emotionally." This is what a family is for young master" he replied.

After that I explained to him that before waking up , I met Mother Gaia, who gave me some powers leading me to wake up and some other gifts, and also the fact that there would be someone coming to train me. My reincarnation was a fact I as gonna keep on me.

After that I took him to my base in null void and boy his mouth never closed the entire tour. It was very funny. I had expanded the base with Oracle's help. Quite an area was being excavated for metals. I even built a accommodation and meeting hall, kind of like the watchtower, with plumber badges working as signal transmitters to teleport them here.

There is also a maximum security prison which constantly gets updated the more database I unlock. Gaia mentioned an instability so this is a precaution for infamous villain's who got overly powerful or new ones. It also has a psychiatrist ward to help them if they have suffered a lot mentally to return them to normal lives, with a gene stabilizer which was used in Omnitrix, if their reason of rampage was because of their power.

After the tour Alfred just made me promise to give him a Tron-cycle as well. Who wouldn't, it looks awesome. He asked some time to think whether he wants to take the gene enhancer serum or not. I was able to find one of the Kree cities on earth and get information on how they created the Inhumans. Because of the new data I ended up unlocking, I was able to make a stealth advanced satellite and got it into orbit. Thanks to it I was able to locate Atlantis as well as Attilan on moon.

I was able to approximately locate Wakanda but didn't get much info, nor did I peep, the fact that they were able to hide proves their technological advancement and the value of Vibranium. I did not order any on black market because of SHIELD, but I will soon raid Clawe for his stash.

Oracle will be able to handle jets and other tools including my suit so I am looking forward to it.

*stay tuned to find out who is gonna teach Alex, and what upgrades did oracle give to one for all*
