In the early morning, a gentle breeze rustled the curtains, and golden sunlight stread in through the window, casting a shimring glow on the floor and walls, gradually illuminating the furniture and decorations in the room.
Eddie woke up with a jolt from a blow to his face, only to find Caesar lying next to him, one foot resting on his belly, and the other foot being the culprit that had just struck him.
In his pajamas, Eddie reluctantly got up and looked at Caesar lying on the bed. The events of last night ca flooding back to him.
It was safe to say that they were unforgettable.
Last night, with Venom's assistance, Eddie quickly incapacitated the third criminal in the restaurant. Concerned for Caesar's safety and with a female civilian being assaulted, he hurriedly rushed out.
The result was obvious. When Eddie arrived at the alley, there were already two cold bodies lying there, and Caesar had even gallantly taken off Boss's coat and covered the torn clothes of Annie, the victim.
That was also the first ti Eddie realized that Master Caesar was far from being as fragile as he appeared. On the contrary, the power contained within his young body was simply imasurable!
Eddie had intended to impress Annie a bit, but the shrill sound of police sirens echoing through the streets made him hastily leave the scene with Caesar to avoid trouble.
After changing clothes, washing up, and having so fresh fish for breakfast, Eddie returned to the room, feeling satisfied with Venom's symbiotic presence in his body.
"Master, what's with you?"
As soon as he entered the room, Eddie saw Caesar sitting on the edge of the bed. The sunlight streaming in through the window refracted in the air, eventually converging on Caesar, making him slightly dazzling.
"Haven't you seen soone having breakfast before?" Caesar shrugged, giving Eddie a displeased glance, and the gathered light on his body quickly dissipated, restoring the room to its original state.
Eddie's mouth twitched slightly. "Having breakfast isn't strange, but it's the first ti I've seen soone treat sunlight as breakfast."
After less than a day of contact with Master Caesar, so of his concepts were constantly being refreshed to new heights.
"Well, let's go out for breakfast then." Caesar stood up and lazily stretched his waist.
"Haven't you just eaten?" Eddie asked in surprise.
"That was just replenishing my energy. I haven't tasted the real breakfast yet."
Caesar said matter-of-factly, a statent that probably only applied to his peculiar body with its inherent energy conversion capabilities.
While nutrition obtained through food couldn't compare to solar energy, Caesar felt no sensation of eating when absorbing pure natural energy. It would be a waste to miss out on such exquisite taste buds.
"Can't we just stay in?" Eddie grimaced. Since last night's incident, he had co to understand that Master Caesar couldn't be viewed as a one-year-old, or he would end up being toyed to death by him.
In terms of thinking, strength, abilities, concepts, and initiative, he far surpassed adult humans, and killing was innate to him.
If he didn't know where Caesar ca from, even if soone said he was a demon incarnate, an extraterrestrial visitor, or a descendant of a deity, Eddie would unquestionably believe it.
Compared to Caesar, those so-called child prodigies were nothing!
With such a special presence, Eddie felt extrely unsettled about casually roaming outside.
"I'm going out for breakfast. That's an order."
Caesar's unexpected statent left Eddie dumbfounded, realizing that he seed to have no right to refuse.
He almost forgot that he was just a hired temporary worker, unable to resist the commands of the heir to the Supernatural Incident Bureau.
It turned out that taking care of Master on behalf of the boss was a pretense, and being instructed by Master himself was the reality.
Eddie felt as if he had just woken up from a dream, but it was already too late. All he could do was agree and carry Caesar out on his shoulders.
The two of them first had breakfast on the nearby streets, bought a copy of the New York newspaper at the newsstand, and sat on outdoor chairs outside a restaurant to rest.
From the newspaper, Caesar unexpectedly obtained so ssages that currently piqued his interest.
Firstly, the dia's coverage of downtown affairs was indeed sensitive. The events that occurred in District Nine last night were already published in a corner of today's newspaper.
According to the accounts of restaurant waiters, diners, and the victim Annie Wayne, the news article detailed the disturbance caused by three drunken troublemakers in the restaurant. It ntioned the unfortunate shooting of a young man, the attempted assault on Annie, and the imdiate rumored retribution inflicted upon one of the criminals, leaving the other two dead at the hands of a blonde child.
The ntion of retribution was one thing, but who was this blonde child, a new character in the scene?
The people of New York were discussing this fervently, expressing strong skepticism about the news article, with many suspecting that the individuals involved might have been too shaken to recount events accurately.
"Master, if you keep taking action like this, it'll be difficult to hide your identity."
Eddie sighed and, from sowhere, produced a small round hat to cover Caesar's sparse but shiny golden hair.
"It doesn't matter." Caesar snorted, sitting on Eddie's shoulder and continuing to read the newspaper.
One of the articles was a lengthy feature report.
It concerned Stark Industries, where core employees had been subjected to successive terrorist attacks in recent days. As of yesterday, six employees, all elite talents from the research departnt, had died, causing anxiety throughout the industry.
"They still haven't found the killer. It seems these aren't ordinary terrorists," Eddie frowned and murmured.
"What's going on? Do you know the details?" Caesar asked coldly, turning to Eddie. With Tony and his original self out in the universe, and Stark Industries being their family's business...
When his original self was in New York, how could such a thing happen?
"I know so, but not much," Eddie said after so thought, speaking solemnly. "A few days ago, while on another mission, I heard that two Stark Industries employees were stabbed to death on the street after work. There was no surveillance footage of the scene, only scorched black marks left behind after being burned by soone else. There were no clues at all."
"Burned?" Caesar propped his chin, seeming to recall sothing, but it quickly dissipated like a cloud of mist.
Apart from his rebirth, after experiencing so much, as he fully integrated into this world, mories of his previous life beca increasingly blurred. Moreover, his existence disrupted and disordered the tiline of the original plot.
What movie's original plot? Now, there were only fragnts left, although he would never forget about hidden cosmic villain bosses like Thanos.
"Hasn't anyone from the Carl Family or SHIELD investigated?" Caesar pondered.
Eddie looked around, lowering his voice. "Of course, they have. Initially, Boss Raina attached great importance to it and dispatched three groups of enforcers, while SHIELD sent three teams of agents to investigate thoroughly. However, two days ago, I heard that even the investigators were attacked. One enforcer and three SHIELD agents were killed. They just didn't want to cause social panic, so they didn't make it public."
"I thought Boss would send to investigate, but instead, she sent to take care of you."
As Eddie spoke, he suddenly slapped his forehead, exhaling lightly. "Why did I even tell you about this?"
"Do you still see as a child?" Caesar rolled his eyes, crossed his arms, and decisively stated, "I've made up my mind. We're heading to Stark Industries right now!"
