Chapter 32 - Stick in Town. [+]

As Tom was about to tease Gwen further, his phone started ringing, causing the students to shift their focus onto Tom.

Tom motioned for Gwen to sit down as he stood in one corner, picking up the phone as he knew it must be important if Matt was calling him.

"What's up?" Tom asked.

"I need your help magician!" Tom immediately understood from Matt's cold tone that someone else was listening in or standing close to Matt, or else he call him with such words as they were both close by now.

"….Alright, where do we meet?" Tom asked in all seriousness as he looked back at the class.

"My place," Matt responded.

"Alright, meet you in thirty," Tom ended the call as he addressed the class while picking up his bag.

Today was going to be his first class leave ever since he joined in,

"Class! Something important has come up, class is dismissed for today,"

Tom immediately left the class as he said so, surprising the students, Tom didn't bother returning to his office and immediately left the school.

After looking for some relatively empty alleyway, he finally put on his new hero costume, the gladiator guy had done a good job of making the suit for him, it looked exactly like Zhong Li's clothes, except for the addition of a mask that suited well with the getup.

Tom really liked the costume, and ended up paying the guy more to get a few more made.

The best thing was that the costume was really resistant and Tom felt that it would take a while before he would need a wardrobe change.

Zhong Li was a character from Genshin impact, Tom still remembers grinding the game day and night for the five-star Zhong Li character, but he wasn't able to get him and instead got the vigilante of mondstat with the ability to use fire skills,

"I wonder if I will be able to get that character, I am pretty sure Zhong Li is a legendary level character so it's almost impossible to get any powers related to him in the Rare gacha pull," Tom flew through the skies as he rushed towards Matt's house.

...…

Matt was having a very rough day, he had finally been able to corner the rat, Leland Owsley, but the latter pulled a good one on him and left him writhing on the floor.

Though that wasn't the end as he was later met with the one person he loved and hated the most, the one he came to consider a father figure but was left hanging.

"It's you old man!"

"If it isn't my biggest disappointment," Stick smirked in his own way as he poked the electrocuted Daredevil.

"You need me to get you a cane or something," Stick quipped as he pushed his hands forward, helping Matt stand up.

...

"So why did you come here?" Matt asked in anger as he looked at his mentor who was as old as a fossil but still a better fighter than him.

"I guess you are good enough as any, I need your help," Stick said.

Surprising Matt who didn't see it coming, though that didn't mean he wasn't going to let it go, his back still hurt from when Stick struck him.

"So what do you want, surely didn't come here for a father son time," Matt mocked.

"Oh shut it! I never said you were my son, you were trained for person, just had to go ahead and develop those weak disgusting feelings did ya," Stick said in slight disappointment.

Matt went quiet at his words, pulling out a bottle of alcohol as he poured himself a drink.

"The Hand is moving in NewYork, atleast two of their people are planning something, Its the Black sky,"

"Whats the black sky?" Matt asked, interested about the Hand as Stick never told him much.

"Nothing for you to know, just help me locate this black sky and kill him, you do this and I am out of your city," Stick said, as if killing was one of the most easiest things to do.

"If you want my help, you tell me everything," Matt said coldly as he passed a drink.

"My city, my rules,"

He ended,

"Alright big boy, listen carefully…."

"Ok I will help you, but on one condition….I want you to promise me, no killing."

"OH COME ONN,"

"No killing! Old man," stick went quiet, as if he was contemplating.

"….Fine,"

Matt sighed in relief as he pulled out his phone,

"What are you up to now!"

"Calling a friend, we are gonna need all the help we can get, if what you said is true,"

"Oh yea, is he a softie like you as well," l mocked Stick as he took a seat.

"Shut up!"

Matt sighed as Tom picked up the call,

"I need your need help, magician," Matt spoke.
