Bab 15: 15. A hotel

'.....'= Thoughts 

"....."= Conversations 

____________________________________________________________________________________

Daredevil slowly pushed himself off the ground, his body aching all over from the powerful blows Harry had delivered. He knew that he had underestimated the ninja, and it had nearly cost him his life. But as he stood, feeling the pain shooting through his body, he also knew that he couldn't let this setback deter him from his mission.

He was tracking a drug dealer organization that was preying on college and high school kids, peddling their dangerous wares to vulnerable young people. These drugs were destroying lives, tearing families apart, and Daredevil was determined to put a stop to it.

The organization used a network of random thugs to sell their drugs to the kids, keeping their own hands clean while exploiting others to do their dirty work. These thugs would then hand over the money they made to the members of the organization in exchange for a commission of the profits. The money that Harry had taken from the thugs was the same money that these criminals were going to give to the organization, and Daredevil saw an opportunity to use it to get to the heart of the drug-dealing operation.

Daredevil sighed and stood up as he glanced at the injured thugs on the ground. Even though Harry took the money, the thugs still have to report to their employer to account for the drugs sold. So Daredevil would still be able to know about the organisation behind all this drug dealing. The only problem would be that these guys would be on alert now.

'Things have gotten difficult now,' Daredevil thought and disappeared into the shadows living the thugs all alone.

Meanwhile, Harry after vanishing from the valley, reappeared on the outskirts of the city, making his way to a nearby hotel. He needed a place to rest and gather his thoughts after the encounter with Daredevil and the gang of robbers. The night air was cool, and the sounds of the city faded into the background as he walked.

He had already received the reward for defeating Daredevil, and now his total amounted to 646 points.

He had three things planned, until the fight between Hulk and Abomination started.

First, he wanted to learn a sensory technique. His senses, though enhanced, were not as sharp as it took him some time to notice Daredevil.

His perception was not like that of an observation Haki, where he would be able to sense any person in an adjacent room or in a certain area. Of course, if Harry kept becoming stronger, it wouldn't be long before he would be able to achieve that. But it still required an appropriate amount of time.

The second thing was to learn a D Rank Genjutsu technique. He hadn't learned it yet because a D Rank Genjutsu definitely wouldn't work against Abomination, but it would still be nice to have such a form of attack. Now that he had a bit of time before the fight started, he could try to learn it.

The third thing was to master and learn a weapon technique. In the shop panel, there were numerous weapons along with the weapon techniques that could be used by Harry after purchasing them. Some of them were quite costly, while others were cheap and could be used by lower-ranked ninjas.

'I guess a sword sounds great. It was always a dream of mine to wield a sword and become a sword master,' Harry thought as he mentally decided on the weapon he would train and master for the future.

'After the fight is over, I will purchase more D Rank Techniques,' Harry thought, as there was still quite a bit of time before he reached the level of chunin. Moreover, he hadn't learned any lightning techniques yet.

The lightning element didn't have techniques that could damage the hard skin of Abomination in D and E ranks. However, starting from C rank, there were powerful techniques.

But, according to the chakra paper, due to the great affinity of the Fire element, it was better for Harry to learn a C rank Fire Release technique rather than a lightning technique.

Finally lost in his thoughts, Harry arrived at the hotel, a modest establishment that offered just what he needed - a bed for the night and a place to lay low until the impending battle between the Hulk and the Abomination.

Stepping through the doors, Harry made his way to the front desk, where a tired-looking receptionist sat, her fingers tapping away at a computer keyboard. She looked up as he approached, offering a small, polite smile.

"Good evening, sir. How can I help you?" she asked, her voice carrying a hint of weariness.

Harry knew a few hotels that didn't ask for the identification proof for check ins in the exchange of a hefty deposit and he was currently at one such hotel.

The information which was actually transformed to him belonged to the dead Harry and the current Harry was eternally grateful for it.

"I'd like to book a room for a few nights, please," Harry said, flashing a knowing look at the receptionist. "I'm in need of a cozy place with a view of the city lights."

The receptionist nodded as she understood Harry's subtle request, her fingers flying across the keyboard as she checked for availability. "Of course, sir. We have a few rooms available. Could I have your name, please?"

"Sure. It's James Bond," he replied, offering a small, friendly smile in return. He didn't want to draw any unnecessary attention to himself, especially after the events of the evening.

The receptionist finished entering his information and handed him a key card. "Here you go, Mr. Harry. Your room is on the third floor, just down the hall to your left. Breakfast is served from 7 to 10 in the morning. Is there anything else you need?"

Harry shook his head. "No, thank you. That's all for now."

As he made his way to his room, Harry couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. The hotel offered the anonymity and solitude he craved - a place where he could rest and prepare for whatever was to come. And most importantly, it was near the location where the clash between the Hulk and the Abomination was set to take place.

Harry swiftly used the key card given to him by the receptionist to open the door to his room. Just as he turned the handle and opened the door, he saw a person sitting on the couch, engrossed in a book.

The moment he opened the door, the person looked up and glanced at him, with a small smile on their face. "Took you so long to get here," that person muttered, closing the book and fixing their gaze on Harry.

The person had a sharp, intense look in their eyes, and Harry couldn't help but feel a sense of unease creeping over him.

________________________________________

Some people were complaining about the reward points given for the quest of completely destroying HYDRA.

Yesterday I revisited the chapter and found out that I had written one zero less.

The reward for actually destroying the HYDRA completely is One million points (1,000,000 points).

Please take note of this and I apologise for my fault.

Bab 16: 16. An unexpected and uninvited guest

'.....'= Thoughts 

"....."= Conversations 

____________________________________________________________________________________

The person who was sitting on the couch, exuded an air of regal authority. His sharp features were softened by a warm and wise expression, while his piercing eyes held an otherworldly depth. He wore a finely tailored outfit befitting his status, featuring a flowing robe with intricate patterns and rich colors that hinted at a timeless elegance. The fabric glinted in the soft light, and adorned with subtle but grandiose details, his attire seemed to reflect his enigmatic and powerful presence.

'He who remains,' Harry easily recognized the person sitting on the couch, as he had already watched the Loki Webseries.

'Man, the TVA totally slipped my mind,' Harry thought, completely on guard and ready to fight at any moment. Even though he was no match for this guy, he definitely wouldn't go down without a fight.

"Who are you and what are you doing in my room?" Harry demanded without stepping away from the door.

"I have been called many names, but the one I personally like is He who remains," the man stood up as he answered Harry's question.

"What?" Harry acted confused.

"Harry, do you know what a variant is? Of course you don't. You are just a fledgling who has recently awakened his weird powers, after all," he spoke cryptically to himself.

"What do you want from me?" Harry interrupted HWR, who was mumbling to himself.

"Answers. Answers to the questions you probably don't have," He Who Remains (HWR) spoke as he walked back and forth.

HWR stopped and looked back at the still confused Harry and began to explain, "Variants are people who diverge from a selected 'main' timeline and create another timeline with events and history that differ from the original one. I call this main timeline as the Sacred timeline."

"So I am a Variant?" Harry questioned.

"You should be, but you are not. You shouldn't possess these powers, yet you do. You should have died back when HYDRA ambushed you, but you are still alive," HWR commented and sat back on the couch.

"And how do you fit into all of this?" Harry tried to act surprised by the sudden revelation from HWR.

"I am the leader and founder of the organization called TVA, which stands for Time Valence Authority. Our job is to preserve the Sacred Timeline by preventing the creation of alternate timelines," HWR answered while carefully observing Harry's facial expressions.

"What do you do with the variants and the alternate timelines they create?" Harry asked, playing the role of a man suddenly exposed to a new world.

"We handle the variants and any alternate timelines they create by either resetting the timeline and pruning the variant to ensure that the Sacred Timeline remains intact and undisturbed," HWR explained calmly.

"Wow, that sounds like a huge responsibility," Harry replied, getting ready for the imminent battle.

"It is a responsibility that we take very seriously, as the consequences of a fractured timeline can be catastrophic," HWR added, emphasizing the importance of their work.

"Are you here to prune me?" Harry asked, though he was in doubt as to why the TVA employees hadn't come for him and why the final boss of the TVA had come to capture him.

Moreover, it had been a few weeks since the sacred timeline was changed, and the TVA's response was quite slow. Harry just couldn't wrap his head around it.

"And what if I am?" HWR narrowed his eyes, urging Harry to take the initiative. However, Harry didn't attack HWR and stood there with tense expressions.

"I am quite weak and no different from a normal human. I don't think I would win if we both fight," HWR smiled.

"The people who speak like this are the most dangerous," Harry answered.

He, of all people, wouldn't underestimate this guy at all.

'If you are weak, then what about the rest of us?' Harry taunted internally. It wouldn't be wrong to call HWR a type of ruler of the Sacred Timeline.

Silence ensued for a few seconds before a soft chuckle escaped HWR's mouth.

"You are an amusing person. I haven't seen many people who keep their calm in such a situation. Most people either think that we are frauds or refuse to come to terms with reality," HWR said. "Don't worry, you haven't broken any TVA rules yet. If you had, TVA employees would have already arrested you," he continued.

"Huuuuuu," Harry let out a deep breath. His entire forehead was covered with sweat. The pressure under which Harry was during the conversation was unimaginable. After all, he was talking with a guy who had the ability to erase his entire existence from the Marvel Universe.

The tension that had built up reduced dramatically after HWR's statement.

Though he didn't let down his guard. Even though HWR had no motives to lie to him, Harry remained cautious.

"So I am not a variant? I didn't create an alternate timeline?" Harry asked.

"The answer to both of those questions is no. Even after you awakened your powers, the timeline wasn't disrupted," HWR replied.

"Then...?" Harry was interrupted mid-sentence.

"What's the point of my visit? Well, you see, even though no new timeline was created, I have never in my entire life seen the sacred timeline adjust itself to accommodate an existence. It's like the sacred timeline adapted itself to include you into the grand picture," HWR spoke, his eyes tinged with excitement.

"This whole thing sounds absurd, doesn't it? How can the sacred timeline change itself to fit a person? Even I can't explain how or why this happened. Moreover, the change in the sacred timeline didn't create any alternate timeline at all. So what do you think? Wouldn't you be excited to meet the person who brought about such a huge change in the sacred timeline that you have been guarding for eons?" HWR asked.

"I definitely would," Harry answered, understanding HWR's perspective.

"I'm glad to hear that," HWR said with a wide smile. "I have to say, it's been an absolute pleasure meeting you. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity and giving me the opportunity to witness this unprecedented event."

Harry nodded, still trying to process the magnitude of what HWR was telling him. "I'm just glad to have found a way to coexist with the timeline without causing any harm. It's all still a bit overwhelming, to be honest."

HWR chuckled softly. "I can only imagine. But rest assured, the fact that the sacred timeline has adjusted itself to accommodate your existence is a testament to your significance. It's a truly remarkable feat."

Before Harry could respond, HWR's expression turned serious. "I must go now, but I hope we can meet again someday. Thank you, Harry, for everything."

And with that, HWR disappeared in a flash of light, leaving Harry standing alone in the room, trying to make sense of the extraordinary encounter he had just experienced.

Harry wondered, 'Did he just come here to say thanks to me? That doesn't make any sense,' as he plopped down on his couch.

'At least he didn't know that I was a transmigrator. That's a plus point,' Harry sighed.

'Whatever the reason for which he came, HWR sure is talented in keeping people on the edge,' a thought passed through Harry's mind.
