Steve Chapter 170

After being reminded by Stark, Fang Mo also remembered the purpose of his visit.

Yes, he came here mainly to deal with Wanda and Pietro. However, after seeing Stark, he got sidetracked and forgot about it.

After recalling this matter, Fang Mo briefly discussed it with Stark.

Basically, Wanda is currently in Asgard, and the crisis with the Aether particles has been mostly resolved. Now, Fang Mo plans to bring Wanda back so that the siblings can reunite.

Stark, of course, fully supported this.

After all, it's not good to keep dragging this matter out.

In fact, over the past few days, Stark has had many conversations with Pietro, talking about things like his own experience in the Afghan cave and Obadiah's unauthorized arms sales. In summary, he has sincerely apologized to Pietro.

To show his sincerity, Stark didn't even lock Pietro up in prison.

He picked an idle villa for Pietro to temporarily stay in, without any restrictions on his personal freedom. He only mentioned that once Fang Mo returns, any news about Wanda will be immediately conveyed to him.

Pietro is not a bad person in himself.

After seeing Stark's sincere attitude over these days, he also began to think.

Stark is indeed an arms dealer, and his reputation hasn't been great, being a playboy and all. But is the war in Sokovia really his fault?

Stark really had no idea about this matter.

After all, besides living a hedonistic lifestyle, he was mainly focused on R&D. Obadiah was largely in charge of the weapons division. Obadiah was truly malicious, not only colluding with the government but also secretly selling weapons to terrorists and Hydra. This was later proven, especially since Stark was almost killed by Obadiah.

Hydra's warlords have been entrenched in Sokovia for quite some time. If there's anyone to blame, although Stark does bear some responsibility, the primary blame should go to Obadiah and those warlords.

They never cared about the lives of the people in Sokovia.

Thinking about this, Pietro no longer hated Stark as much.

This is not to say he has let go of his hatred. After all, the death of one's parents is something no one can forget. But Pietro realized that he hated the wrong person. The ones who really killed his parents were the government of Sokovia and the surrounding warlords.

Stark is at most a blacksmith selling sword.

If someone used a sword to kill his parents, should he seek revenge on the blacksmith first?

Even if all these people deserve to die, there has to be a priority, right? Pietro seriously considered this and felt he should first deal with those said to be Hydra warlords.

As for Stark, he'll deal with him once he has the ability to take down those wretched warlords.

And just as Pietro was pondering these matters,the door was suddenly opened.

Stark and Fang Mo then walked in together.

Originally, Pietro was daydreaming, but when he saw Fang Mo, he jumped up from the sofa and rushed over to ask, "Where's Wanda? How is she now?"

"She has turned misfortune into a blessing," Fang Mo said, walking in slowly holding a small shadow dragon. "She's currently in Asgard practicing magic."

"Magic?" Pietro was stunned.

"Yes," Fang Mo briefly explained. "Your sister was fortunate enough to touch the true reality and awakened chaos magic. She is now in intense training to control her powers."

"You..." Pietro stared at Fang Mo, hesitating for a moment before saying, "You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Do I need to lie to you?" Fang Mo shrugged, then with a thought, the Infinity Gauntlet in his storage space shone brightly, creating a black hole beside him. "I can bring her here to show you."

Fang Mo reached in and pulled out Jane Foster.

"Huh? What is this?" Jane seemed puzzled too. She looked around and then saw Fang Mo. "It's you? Why did you pull me here?"

"This is not my sister," Pietro said, directing his comment at Fang Mo.

"Uh... sorry, I pulled the wrong person." Fang Mo pushed Jane back into the portal. "Although the Space Stone and I are quite familiar, occasional mistakes like this are normal."

"Alright, this time I guarantee there won't be a problem." Fang Mo reached in again and successfully pulled out Wanda.

"Hmm? Where is this?" Wanda seemed confused as well, but before she could react, Pietro rushed up to her.

"Wanda!"

"Brother?" Wanda was also stunned. "Why are you here?"

"They said you ran off to Asgard to learn magic," Pietro hurriedly explained. "I didn't believe them, so I asked them to bring you here. Are you okay? Did they threaten you?"

"Not at all," Wanda said, looking puzzled. "Jane and I were accidentally invaded by cosmic particles. Thor and Fang Mo saved us, but now I have a strange energy within me. Frigga is teaching me how to control it."

"Really?" Pietro sighed in relief.

"But what about you, brother?" Wanda looked puzzled. "Aren't you supposed to be working in Sokovia? Why are you here? And is this... Stark?"

"Uh..." Pietro's expression froze.

"Hold on, brother," Wanda furrowed her brows, sensing that something was off. "You better not tell me you secretly tried to assassinate him behind my back."

"I..." Pietro's eyes darted around, seemingly trying to come up with a lie. "Actually, I was just..."

"Oh, he stole alien weapons and tried to assassinate Stark," Fang Mo interjected. "But you know how inept he is. He tried to kill him but failed, so we caught him. However, attempting to assassinate a global tycoon and core Avenger... that's a serious crime. I'm planning to make an example of him tomorrow."

Wanda fell silent all of a sudden.

"..."

Pietro also fell into silence.

"Can you stop scaring them?" After seeing their expressions, Stark couldn't help but speak up, "They're just kids, can't you be normal?"

"So you explain?"

Fang Mo glanced at Stark.

"Okay."

Stark nodded, then turned to explain to Wanda, "Look, kid, here's the thing..."

Unlike Fang Mo, Stark was genuinely serious and meticulous in his explanation because it involved his previous weapons department. He explained what was going on with Pietro, how Fang Mo had discovered Wanda's disappearance, and then went to Asgard to help, including apologies.

After listening, Wanda was stunned for a long time.

On one hand, she didn't expect Pietro to be so daring, sneaking off to assassinate Stark and secretly sidelining her. 

On the other hand, Stark's attitude made Wanda even more conflicted.

She had already been confused when she saw him desperately protecting civilians. Now, Pietro should be arrested for trying to assassinate him, but Stark didn't mind and asked Wanda to come and collect her brother.

Anyway, Pietro is her brother. No matter how angry she is, she can't ignore him. So she nodded and took Pietro back.

"Can you open another portal?"

After taking Pietro back, Wanda also said to Fang Mo, "I still have to go back to Asgard to study magic."

"Huh?" Before Fang Mo could respond, Pietro was stunned, "Wanda, am I also going to Asgard?"

"You have to stay by my side now."

Wanda glared at Pietro, "If I leave you in Sokovia, you'll mess around. Asgard is light-years away from Earth, stay there."

"But my job..."

Pietro wanted to complain.

"Hmm?"

Wanda frowned.

"Never mind." Pietro obediently lowered his head, "I already quit my job... Is it easy to find work in Asgard?"

In any case, under Wanda's strong suppression, Pietro, the elder brother, instantly lost his temper.

Fang Mo opened a portal with the Space Stone, and Wanda pulled her incompetent brother back to Asgard.

Wanda's idea is simple. She's still confused about Stark, and to prevent her foolish brother from making more mistakes, she confined him to Asgard.

The Maximoff siblings' issue was quickly resolved.

Afterward, Fang Mo chatted with Stark for a bit.

"You have a lot of houses." Fang Mo, holding a small ender dragon, casually sat on the sofa, "Can you build a house? Help me build one that I can pack and take with me for interstellar travel."

"Interstellar travel?"

Stark poured himself a glass of whiskey and sat on a nearby sofa, "I have plenty of villas, but you can teleport, why would you want to take a house with you?"

"Some places you can't get back from even with spatial teleportation."

Fang Mo shook his head, not explaining his ability to traverse other worlds.

But honestly, he does need a modern residence. If one day he travels to an ancient world, at least he won't have to fight for pit toilets with ancient people. Modern toilets are just too awesome, greatly enhancing the happiness when using the restroom.

"So... you want me to build you a house?"

Stark, being smart, quickly understood Fang Mo's idea and nodded, "No problem, when do you need it?"
