Alex is very skillful in the art of the hunt and battle, not surprising as he had live a thousand years doing so as well as live through two world wars.
Being able to traverse, the forest of death that even the gods do not dare to cross as well as battling behemoths more ferocious and much larger than a giant, makes him pretty much a survivor.
Alex was born an ordinary man but due to circumstances involving a 12 feet tall Panther, A flower, A nectar and an unknown equation(that he doesn't know of), he found himself gaining powers of ridiculous proportions.
Now he has reach the point where even if just a single atom exist, he will regenerate much better and much stronger.
He's invulnerable to all weapon mankind has develop as well as able to traverse in great speed without an effort, he has the grace of a predator and the instinct of one also it's still growing day by day.
Now that same man was holed up in his basement in France examining the "armor", he had designed and forged.
"According to my data, the "armor" will enhance your already immense strength and will make sure that you will be able to survive anything the world can throw at you" said a feminine voice, of which when heard carries the coldness of winter.
Alex, who currently overlooking the production of his "armor" smiled at where the voice came from and ask. "How about the new addition, how are they fairing?"
"The add ons are fully operational although I have to tweak a few things to make it more malleable to change" replied the voice. "but why though? why the redundancy? You're already a demi-immortal, if not fully." The voice ask.
Alex once more smile and turn to the owner of the voice, he replied "Yes, You are absolutely right about me being an Immortal but It is not enough, The gods are starting to wake up and war is on the horizon."
He approach the owner of the voice and come face to face with a beautiful woman with winter white hair reaching just below her shoulder while having a skin as pale as snow.
She carries a finely crafted bow on her back while a small pup seated right atop her beautiful lock of white hair.
he said "Skadi, I might be unkillable but my family and friends are not." he then gave a wry smile and added "although with the unpredictability of this universe something or someone might be able to kill me."
Skadi gave an understanding nod and said "I understand, I will help protect you and your family" "woof!"
The two stared and then laugh as the previous solemn atmosphere completely vanish as the pop on Skadi's head fell down head first into the grown and buried his face on virtual snow.
"Did you really have to make him sentient?" he ask.
Skadi shrugged and pick the lil' pup then reply "I don't want her to be just a bunch of codes besides with hard light, she and I will be able to interact with you and most importantly feel the things, I've always want to feel."
Alex nodded, he then move to a computer and inspect it. "Seems like your programming is running well and it seems like you upgraded it as well."
"Yes, Your programming skills are quite prodigious for a human but quite a few things still needed recalibration." Skadi replied with a hint of smugness.
Alex rolled his eyes and said "You don't have to sound smug about it." he then turned back to his project and added "come on, let's wrap it up for now because I still have a meeting with Skye."
*******
"So here's the only application who pass all of your ridiculous test." Skye said dryly as she remembered the thousand applicants who immediately back out when they learn of the requirements.
Alex took the resume and replied "Like I said, I want someone who can keep up with me to my day to day schedule". He then raised an eyebrow at the name of the applicant. "How interesting".
Skye rolled her eyes and said "Does your secretary needed to be "well-verse in combat?" or has to have "Explosive and Weapons training", I mean, it's like your not looking for a secretary but an Amazonian"
Alex shrugged "Well, If Luthor can find some hot secretary who can both keep up with his schedule and at the same time fight then why can't I?" He then turn to look at the application form and smiled "besides I'm not looking for an Amazonian, I'm looking for something else, more of a...an out of this world kind of gal."
