Learning to open portals was super easy, barely an inconvenience, now learning how to make bombs powerful enough to blow up buildings with twenty floors at a minimum, now that was a challenge, but fortunately for me the library in Karma-Taj had all the books I could've asked for.

Why would a place that is dedicated to the practice of the mystic arts have bomb making books? No idea, it really didn't make any sense, but I didn't care, so with those non magical books, I started to learn and practice.

As for the Ancient One, well, she was training Emily, remember when I said, maybe Emily has a knack for the mystical arts? Well, I was right, well, not entirely, according to the Ancient One, everyone has a knack for the mystic arts, but not everyone wants to learn, she was very Miyagi at times.

So, there she was, Emily practicing with the Ancient One how to open a portal, she had yet to succeed, but boy was she trying hard, it was funny really, because unlike the others the Ancient One didn't kicked her into a mountain or harsh place, right now the Ancient One was like Valerie Frizzle the teacher of the magical school bus, the teacher every kid wanted.

Anyway, back to me. Here I was making bombs, so far the first few ones I managed to make were weak, but I was getting there, my Bomb Making skill was getting there. [Bomb Making LV 35]

"How is the bomb making business?" The Ancient One inquired.

"You are surprisingly chill about all this," I replied, stopping what I was doing, I had already learned in a bad way things like Bomb Making needed all your attention, I almost lost a finger two days ago.

"You are killing terrorists, and also you refuse to join us, at least completely, meaning what you do is really none of my concern," The Ancient One smiled, taking a seat.

"Well, while joining sounds great, you know my reasons," Not being able to interfere in most affairs was a hard no for me, those affairs were EXP I was not going to give up. Also, some affairs I wanted to stop altogether.

"I understand, and I can respect it," The Ancient One nodded, "Your child will be a great sorceress." Considering she had the ability to see the future, that was good.

"So, have you decided what I can access from your magical library, and what I can not?" Part of me not joining was that I didn't have full access to the Magic related items.

"I have, you will have the same access everyone has," The Ancient One replied, once again surprising me.

"I thought only those that belong to the order had access to the library," I muttered.

"Oh that, that was a lie," The Ancient One chuckled, "I was trying to convince you to join, but in reality who has and who has not access to those books is my decision, I am the sorceress supreme, I can decide such things."

It's refreshing how honest she is, "I see,"

"You know you can stay here, right?" The Ancient One said, "Here Emily would be safe, and Hydra would never reach you."

As if being summoned, Goose walked into the room, purring.

Petting Goose, I looked at her and smiled, "I might take you up on that offer, but it might not be needed. After I destroy Hydra, I will be able to live anywhere… though most likely I will wait until Emily learns how to open a portal, so that she can come here and practice more,"

"Well, if you ever feel like living here, feel free to do so," The Ancient One chuckled, as she started to walk out of the room.

"Why are you so.. friendly with me?" I asked, I didn't understand why was she so accommodating with me.

The Ancient One hummed, "You are important, more so than you even realize." And with that she walked out of the room.

One month later and I had done it, I had created the bombs that would fry Hydra out of my life, bombs with enough power to destroy their bases, bombs with a 0.8 kiloton of power in the bomb scale.

"Time to Amazon prime their asses!" I grinned, opening a portal to one of the bases, and throwing a bomb with a timer set for ten seconds.

And so the repeating cycle began, open portal, throw bomb, close portal, open portal, throw bomb, close portal, open portal, take a selfie, throw bomb, close portal.

I think this might be the most broken combination ever, I mean in only ten minutes I had destroyed 97 bases, and had leveled up five times. Heck, this was so motherfuckering effective I was planning on traveling around the world, discovering all the Hydra bases and then bombing them, it was literally an exp farm, then again… maybe I let them grow back again and farm them, my own EXP farm…

"Oh well," I shrugged, opening a portal and throwing a bomb.

[Nick Fury - POV]

Places around the USA were exploding like motherfuckering popcorn, and I fucking knew that little bastard was the one behind such explosions, I swear to God when I see him again, I will slap the bitch for not telling me!

I don't fucking care if the motherfucker is super strong or that he has a fucking man eating cat, the bitch will get the slap for not letting me know he was bombing Hydra, that was something I wanted in.

"What that hell is that?" I muttered as a yellow circle, a portal opened in front of me, and from it a letter fell off.

~Dear Fury, I know by this point you know what I am doing, sorry for not telling you, I owe you a beer, with love Alex~

"Hm," the bitch was still getting the slap, especially if he thought Nick Fury was so cheap that he could be bought with a beer!
