Herick had just arrived and was immediately targeted and accused by the opposition, who cited every action of his, proposing an impeachment; and they even had good arguments.

So far, Herick had blatantly ignored the Brazilian constitution, not that it served for anything.

But Herick remained silent, accused, and just watched.

Shortly after, a burly man in a suit approached Herick and handed him a folder with the SHIELD symbol.

Herick was surprised but then smiled, and as the politicians spoke, he began to read the book.

When he finished reading the names in the book and some of their accusations, someone got angry and said:

-So, Mr. President, you can only pay attention to prostitutes.

Hearing this, Herick became furious and shouted:

-Who said that?

Everyone was startled, and some pointed to the leader of the opposition, who had a smile on his face, as if he had won a war.

Herick approached him, looked into his face, and said:

-I have evidence of what you have been doing lately, including my assassination attempt; and you will answer as a civilian, because now I'm hunting your mandate for a breach of parliamentary decorum.

The most honest person in Brazil replied:

-My companion, you cannot accuse me without evidence.

Herick approached him and said:

-For crimes such as betrayal of the country, corruption, intimidation, bribery, tax evasion, your sentence is death.

And nobody believed it, but Herick actually punched the opponent in the face, though he didn't hold back at all.

Everyone could see the opponent's head exploding like fireworks.

It resembled the opening scene of The Boys, the world was in shock, and all those nearby were thrown into the air, the camera broke.

It was total chaos, most people were on the ground and had no strength to get up.

Herick asked for another camera to be brought and listed every crime committed by the politicians. 93% of them were sentenced to prison, and 40% of those were sentenced to death.

On one hand, there was a sense of justice, on the other, tyranny, and all the remaining politicians felt oppressed.

The army had to obey, partly because he was the president, and partly because of the force he had shown.

No one wanted their head to explode because of corrupt politicians, something the population would not really want, and the army would show a bit of service.

They sent about 4 tanks as a defense of "democracy."

So everything was done in just one day, the executions and the arrests.

All of this happened, but what everyone was really concerned about was the fact that he was a "mutant."

Humans with "natural" powers did not have a different DNA from normal people, so they were praised.

Racism, on the other hand, ravaged mutants. All the racists who couldn't reject people based on their skin color took it out on them.

But anyway, Herick didn't care; he asked for the "Caveiras" to gather for a meeting tomorrow.

Meanwhile, he used the power of discerning truth from Hestia and Hephaestus to interrogate all his guards and maids.

After that, he talked to Hephaestus about weapon technology, showing him the blueprints and manufacturing methods for various weapons.

And as expected from Hephaestus, who learned quickly, he could already do better.

She may not seem that intelligent, but her intelligence is immeasurable.

The fact that she fell for Herick's charm doesn't make her dumb.

She suffered centuries of loneliness and anguish; she was like a human who had been bullied, but the difference was that she suffered for centuries.

What truly made her feel empty was the fact that she had an extremely high level of intelligence from birth, coupled with the fact that she had lived for thousands of years, making her a rare genius.

She was on par with Reed Richards in terms of brilliance, and imagine him with thousands of years of experience. After all, she invented the concept of forging in her universe.

She could analyze every material without the need for machines, but what no one knew was that she did this without using magic or her "divinity," only pure intellect.

She discovered the melting and boiling points of every material on her planet. She was the brightest person, but one day her eye was injured.

All her passions faded away, and she became very depressed. For a while, she wanted to die, but she was practically immortal.

Until her life started to improve, when she was about to end it, one of her friends convinced her to start a family.

But she was afraid of losing everything she had, so after starting a family, she gave up on innovating.

Now, she could go to another world where nobody looked at her weirdly. Many mortals didn't find her disgusting, but they didn't have the courage either. But she found someone perfect for her.

She didn't mind sharing, partly because it was somewhat common in her world, and most importantly, she was immortal.

She just wanted to enjoy the moment a little since she had only experienced depression for centuries.

So she quickly made an improved production model of weapons and ammunition. She was amazed by the things that men had achieved on this planet.

Although she understood a little about robotics, having read three books, she could already make gears and understand how they worked in a weapon.

Herick asked her to first improve the pistols, and she learned that her world also had gunpowder, but it was much more powerful than Earth's.

To dampen the recoil, she would use beast leather. Her world had many lightweight materials that could be used for the casing, which not only conducted electricity but also magic.

She decided that she would enchant each weapon but also explained that the resources were not abundant and she would have to enchant and make them one by one with her own hands.

It would be three days of hard work for two weapons, but she assured that they would be so powerful that their power would be terrifying.

She compared them to laser guns when Herick showed several examples from science fiction.

She said the damage would be the same as those weapons that could penetrate tanks.

But the problem lay with the bullets because to withstand such pressure, force, power, and speed, a material as hard as diamond would be needed.

And the only material as hard as diamond was diamond, but she didn't know if there was any here.

Then she found Vibranium, but it would absorb shock and energy, resulting in a negative outcome, and it was very rare.

This was public information, of course, but Herick knew where to find plenty, and Adamantium was not public; it was hidden by the US government.

So Herick concluded that despite having many geniuses by his side, he would inevitably need resources.

{Author's note: I wanted to give the readers the power to choose the third world, but some problems would arise: first, lack of creative space; second, an unstable storyline; and third, a lack of desire to thoroughly research these worlds that I am unfamiliar with.}
