The development of the matter was greatly out of his expectations, but it couldn't be any better for Arthur.
Dr. Erskine's reaction made it very clear that those twelve books that he had paid for allowed him to be a 'genius'. It was almost unreal that he would be allowed to partake in his research.
- It seems that it was a major stroke of luck when he got reborn as the adopted son of Colonel Phillips. -
In any case, this was what he wanted originally. So Arthur had no problems with it.
Studying under Dr. Erskine, with the identity of a bodyguard was a protective cover. The higher ups should obviously be prepared for Hydra. So he was probably just a showcase. There should be more hidden guards.
Rather than having a hectic life in the war, the laid back lifestyle of research as well as the special protection was much better.
As long as the War ends, he didn't need to worry anymore.
Arthur was immersed in his fantasies, Dr. Erskine's words broke his bubble: " We don't have much time, how good is your memory?"
"It's okay."
"Great, I will find something for you to read. Take a good look at it. Tonight, we've got things to do. I need to meet a somewhat important person."
Dr. Erskine said: "Now, you should do your work and be my bodyguard first. Wait until the super soldier plan is really successful... and then we will take the next step!"
They spent the day in the study.
Dr. Erskine was not only looking for materials for him, but also his old notes and documents, giving them to Arthur unconditionally, so that he could remember as much as he can.
He did not say anything and memorised all the data. He was slightly dizzy.
It was not until after dinner that they went out for an adventure.
When he left the house, Arthur could not help but ask: "Where are we going?"
" An Expo."
Dr. Erskine smirked: "Have you heard of Stark Industries?"
"... I have." How could he have not heard of it. Iron Man! As a person from the technological era, it was a fantasy that many tech geeks had wet dreams of !!! But this time ... it should be the old man of Iron Man.
"Yes, Howard Stark is a genius."
Dr. Erskine gently pushed his glasses up and said: "If you really want to make a super soldier, support both science and technology is necessary !"
.

It was not until they arrived at the destination that Arthur found out that the so-called 'Expo' was the flashy carnival thingy, The Stark Expo!
He remembered this place from the movie. Young Rogers would be attending the exhibit with his friend Sgt. James "Bucky" Barnes. Where this old man would notice him and after which he would be accepted into the Super Soldier Plan! The plot was in motion!
From the car, Arthur began paying attention to everything around him.
He didn't become careless just because Dr. Erskine had an easy atmosphere around him.
The name 'Stark' again reminded him of the current world he lived in. Who could guarantee that there would be no spies around here...
His very existance here had probably set off a case of butterfly effect. He could only hope that it was not too bad. This once again hate the protagonists who could go about in their new world's completely unaware of the disaster their presence may have produced.
"Hey, Arthur, I think you should relax a bit."
Dr. Erskine looked him and said: "This is New York, far from the war. You don't need to have such right nerves, right? Today was a very busy day, but tonight you can rest for a while, enjoy the company of some women ... Yes, I don't know what kind of preference you have, but Colonel Phillips told me that you like to indulge in those with bouncy glutes , is it true?"
"..."
Arthur's face was twitching.
- What can I even say in this situation? -
Sure enough, the first impression is nothing but deception, right?
"Looking at your face, it should be the default." Dr. Erskine laughed happily: "After the end of the war, do you how many people will become widows? The men in this city, almost all are out to fight the war. Even I want to kill the enemy. But I can't. I can only help this country by working in my own field. I hope that one day, the world will shine brightly. There is no more pain and suffering, war and death. Just like your dream, world peace!"
- Who told you that? ? ? -
So shameful! His face couldn't help but turn red!
"Of course, by that time, you will be able to find many woman with a big **** and if someone catches your fancy, you can even make a family!"
This will not be the last time he hears it, will it?
Going into the exhibition hall, the doctor said : "Well, you can really relax now. This expo is very strict. I will not have anyone targeting me here... So Why not go to see the things in this exhibition hall? I heard that some are very good. For the wonderful fantasy of the future world, it is always fascinating, right?"
- Although I don't need to fantasize about the future world since I already know of it... but I suppose the doctor is right, I really should take a look around. -
He took a look at Dr. Erskine and said with a smile: "I will be back soon."
"It doesn't matter if you have some fun, you know. There are pretty girls still out there."
That reminds me, the reader (I don't remember their name) who wanted a BL versión of this, it will be available soon. By an author in Thailand.
It took me so long to find this...
