5 I think the guy who's flying with a cape, more dangerous.
Right after leaving the "conference," Natasha had a look of discomfort and said:
—Do you mind if I go to the bathroom?
Herick looked her in the eyes and said:
—You don't have to be so formal with me, I'm not some jerk in the presidential chair; I'm just an idiot who dares to go against the world for his country. Trivial matters can be dealt with without my consent, but thank you for the respect.
Natasha had a somewhat strange expression on her face. It was incredible how this spy still had a heart, and she had been distressed by the situation with this president. But she quickly snapped out of it, gave a simple thank you, and went to the bathroom. When she arrived, she looked around to see if anyone was nearby.
Seeing that there was no one, she breathed a sigh of relief. Little did she know that, even without powers, Herick already knew what she had gone to do.
She would have to be incredibly naive to think that a spy suddenly felt the urge to go to the bathroom. It was clear that she was going to talk to her superior, and knowing the bald man, after everything that had happened, he would at least want her to take on the role of secretary.
Inside the bathroom, a conversation was taking place:
—Natasha, it is necessary for you to secure a position close to this president and try to keep him in line. He is now protected by the entire UN, and anything he does will cause a global catastrophe. He is worse than the mutants and all the dangerous races we encounter at the moment. He is simply a walking nuclear bomb.
Natasha replied:
—I don't know, that guy in the cape who flies seems more dangerous to me.
Nick Fury spoke sternly:
—He is under the supervision of another agency, and for now, he hasn't done anything worthy of concern, unlike this president, who can't be touched without exploding. And he doesn't seem very friendly either. Anyway, just do your job, okay!?
Natasha was actually angry because Nick always treated her like this, and he knew that she wouldn't betray him for something trivial like this. But they both knew that he treated her like a tool. Still, she replied:
—Okay.
She left the bathroom and headed towards Herick, but she was surprised by what he said:
—I need a competent personal secretary, and I'm thinking of you for the position.
She was happy that she didn't have to climb the ladder step by step, but she was surprised and suspicious. However, she was also somewhat happy. Not many people treated her as a sexual object in her missions, and even fewer treated her as an equal.
Clint Barton was her only friend, so this was somewhat depressing. And this ruler of a future superpower treated her as an equal, which was a simple thing, but it earned him several points with her. Herick, in truth, treated her in a simple way, just like he treated everyone else.
But despite knowing that she was a potential enemy, he wanted her to be close? Herick admired her accomplishments, which had basically been ignored by the world. She had been treated as "just part of the job," but he had a solid idea: "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer."
That avoided many problems in reality, and it was great in general, as an enemy could become a friend, while a friend could become your worst enemy.
Natasha promptly nodded in approval, and they walked towards the car. They drove to the "president's house," the Palácio da Alvorada. When they arrived, they said their goodbyes because it was already late, and tomorrow would be another busy day for the president, which was honestly annoying.
He went up to his room, took a shower, had a snack just to say he ate something, and went to the personal gym at the Palácio da Alvorada to start exercising. He noticed that his body was extremely good, with excellent reflexes and improved motor coordination, as well as explosive strength that he had dreamed of in his previous life.
Entering the NBA had always been his dream, and as the president of a major power, he could do whatever he wanted, as long as he handled the country's affairs excellently.
And what NBA team wouldn't want a president playing? It might seem ridiculous, but it would be a tremendous sponsorship opportunity. Once he entered the market, it would be a fierce competition.
But he put that dream aside because he would have to be heavily involved, and he wouldn't be able to govern his country well. Nevertheless, the seed of that dream still remained in his heart, even though he knew it was almost impossible. He still had the desire, like a rabid dog that wouldn't let go of a bone.
He was currently sitting on the couch, watching an American news channel with subtitles since his English was terrible and he could only understand a few words.
Then he saw something that infuriated him. He had known it would happen sooner or later. He saw that Ezakiel had led "capes for Christ" as a guest speaker and saw the "Samaritan's Hug" and reports about the so-called "church of collectivity."
He was a Christian, and even after coming to this world, he remained one who respected everything. But in this world, he didn't have much of a choice. He had to be evil so that the people who depended on him could be good.
In reality, he was making a sacrifice, giving up everything he had, and waiting for the judgment hour to see if his efforts would lead him to hell or heaven. Because he had to be cruel for the peace of those under his tutelage.
It was true that he was sad about making this choice, but it was the only option he had. It was either him or billions of people, and many would choose themselves, but Herick had always been a good person, so he chose the billions.
When he saw this on TV, he was determined to put an end to both of these things and bring true Christianity. After all, North Korea had been on his list for a long time.
He turned off the TV and started to calm down, but then a screen appeared in front of him, similar to the one Iron Man uses with his helmet.

(It's great to have some help. I'm really happy to have you, but may I ask what benefits you provide me?)
⌜ ⌝ The system has various resources, but you can only obtain them through missions. The system has a conquest system,and as a president, you have access to a classic lottery system. However, the host can only earn chances by completing special missions.
There's also a mission system. In reality, the Host starts without any specific privileges, only with the ability to travel to other worlds open to him. However, the host must ensure that the items and people brought back are loyal.
These travels will occur while the Host sleeps, and each night will be equivalent to three days. As the only privilege for the Host, you can choose three different worlds to travel to and navigate the desired world during the night without any system intervention. But please keep in mind that if the Host dies, he will suffer significant physical damage.
