Bab 95: Jealousy
"Yes Sir, I am Sersi." the woman said pointing to the name badge on her chest. "I am the guide here. Please follow me." John and Emma followed her as explained different artifacts around. They went around while John closely listened to Sersi and looked at her from time to time, trying to find out if she really was an 'android' or was it just a sham by Arishem to fool Sersi.
Because Eros was the supposed brother of Thanos, was also an eternal. If eternals were really androids then they wouldn't have been able to procreate. And in comics eternals were able to procreate so John didn't understand why Arishem showed Sersi that she was just an android.
As they were walking around they came upon a rusted war hammer. John's eyes instantly lit up. Sersi proceeded to say "... this is a war hammer from Benin. I suppose it's from the Fula tribe..".
"Miss Sersi, I think we both know that this artifact isn't from Benin." John said.
"I don't understand. What do you mean?" Sersi said with a little bit of apprehension and curiosity. She also knew that this was an artifact from Wakanda made of vibranium. But she couldn't say it as the officials will not leave this piece here and rather use it for their own purposes. Every bit of vibranium was very costly in the market and nobody would let go such a good sized piece.
"It's from Wakanda, made of vibranium. Isn't it?" Sersi knew that the real identity of the artifact was up in the air but she couldn't do anything about it. Even though vibranium was very rare in the market, many people knew of it's existence.
"Yes it is from Wakanda." Sersi admitted. "Do you want to mention this to the authorities?"
"Why would I do that? Let it be here. Vibranium doesn't really interest me." John said and proceeded to see the next exhibition. Sersi was surprised by such nonchalance for such high priced artifact but was grateful for that.
Emma who was listening to their conversation was little confused but didn't poke her nose in it as she could see there was an interest of John in Sersi. She was sure it wasn't romantic from his eyes but she was still curious of a woman who could raise such eye brows of John.
Being with John for such a long time Emma knew that John never showed any interest to any woman up till now so she knew that there must be something interesting in Sersi. And the topic of vibranium interested her too. After an hour of tour John finally came out of the Museum.
"Miss Sersi, I am John Jameson. I suppose you know my identity. If you find any difficulties in the future, you can always call my manager in the company directly." John said while bringing out the office card and gave to her.
Sersi was surprised because John and Emma had been wearing breathing masks and hats to cover their appearance. For this reason they weren't recognized in public. She did know John as he was famous recently for the superhero movies but never expected him to be here.
"Thank you Mr. Jameson. I would surely contact you if I encounter any difficulty. As of now I really like working in the museum." Sersi said bit still took the card. John and Emma left after that.
John and Emma while going back in the car could see Emma eyeing him so he said "Spill it out. I know you have questions."
"Who was she? Another dream girl of yours?" Emma said with a taunt because John always mentioned Emma as his dream girl.
"Huh! No.. Of course not. She is just special in her own way." John said.
"Special? Like a 'dating material' special?" Emma said with a hint of a jealousy.
"Do you think I can date a thousands of years old woman?" John replied back. John was happy that Emma showed a hint of jealousy. He loved that feeling.
"What? Thousand year old woman? Are you sick? She doesn't even look more than 40." Emma said.
"She is thousands of years old Emma. She was present when mankind took it's first step towards a modern society." John said.
"What? Are you serious? Oh my god!! How does she look the same after all these years? How is she alive?" Emma was astonished but believed John's words as by now she understood there were extraordinary people around.
"She is alive for various reasons but don't ask me more about it. The knowledge associated with her existence is very dangerous. We aren't powerful enough to confront them yet." John said with a solemn expression. He didn't know if Arishem could see his existence but he didn't want to take any risk by exposing Arishem to anyone.
Emma for the first time saw a hint of fear in John's eyes. John was always nonchalant about most of the things. Even in New York war he didn't show much care. But this woman's history actually gave apprehension to John. This surprised Emma but understood that she shouldn't ask more. Sometimes ignorance was bliss.

Bab 96: A new movie
"Then tell me about this vibranium." Emma asked remembering the previous conversation.
"Oh that! Vibranium is the most strongest metal on Earth and it comes out from the country of Wakanda." John said.
"Oh!" Emma lost interest after knowing that it was just a metal and didn't ask more. She probably would have been very interested if she came to know that Wakanda was the most advanced country on Earth. Well at least on land, he had no idea if Namor existed in this universe.
"I hope the next superhero won't have conflict with Namor if he exists."
They went back home and John spent a week in London. John and Emma moved to New York by the start of May. They both were really happy and Emma opted to study from online as John had donated a load of money to Brown University and the university was happy enough to give such privilege to Emma.
John continued to do his work in movies and animes and he was determined to introduce new animes, as the update of the system gave him a wake up call. He wasn't sure on how much fan values would be required for the next update as the system refused to answer the number but he was looking forward to storing massive fan values.
When John checked the rise in number of fan values he was ecstatic as he calculated that now the rise in fan values would be almost equivalent to 1.5 billion per year. That was a huge jump. He had already decided to up the rate of movies being released every year as it was time to speed up things.
John even checked the response of the public after the war in the internet. Most of the people were very happy that superheroes existed and defended humanity, though some politicians were shouting about accountability but people hardly cared. But what John didn't expect that Green Lantern got hate in the internet.
The people felt that he could have come earlier as Oa was very nearby and accused Hal of being lazy. John was dumbstruck by this.
"What is this? Even in this universe the Green Lantern is in the receiving end of hate. Will this cycle never end?"
The days went by as John and Emma continued their work. In July John got a call from Tony saying that the shielding technology was ready to use. John was happy as he didn't have to spend fan values to extract it.
John and Emma went to the Stark Tower only to see that it has been renamed as Avengers Tower. John smiled at it. He even saw Bruce's car in the garage.
"So Tony show me the devices." John said as soon as he entered the laboratory.
"Instead of having the devices in fingers and hands, I have made the devices as bracelets and anklets. It can even be designed to wrap around as a belt in waist" Tony said as he brought out the devices. John wore it in his hand and switched it on. There was a blue haze around his body for a second but disappeared the next second.
"Do you want to try it?" Tony asked. John looked at Wayne. He understood what John meant and took out his batrang and threw it at John. The batrang reached near the body of John but stopped by a blue haze. It stopped for a second in the haze and then fell off.
"Great. It works. You kept the research a secret Tony?" John asked.
"Yes, even though I am not sure why are you taking such a measure but I understand the conditions. Even Jarvis doesn't have access to it." Tony replied.
"Good. I want 5 for my family. You can do whatever you want with the rest except for publicizing it." John said. Emma was also excited too see and use such an advanced technology and wore it on her ankle.
Even Banner and Wayne were happy seeing such a technology as basically now nobody can be sniped upon. Especially for Wayne as he was just a normal human being.
"Banner, Tony, Wayne how about we start a new company together?" John suddenly said.
"New company? What do you need a new company for? Don't we have enough companies under both of us?" Tony asked
"No this company will be the step for humanity to a new horizon. Don't you want to be in the forefront of it?" John said. Now everybody were excited as John's words basically meant that a new technology is going to arrive at earth.
"What kind of technology are you referring to?" Banner asked.
"Artificial gravity and use of solar power in a much efficient way, enough to drive vehicles at high speed in air" John said.
"Really? That's awesome. When is the technology arriving?" Banner said.
"By the end of the year, an animated movie is being made on it too for all of you to understand the scope of their technology." John said.
