Chapter 13: CHAPTER 13: I'll enjoy doing this~
On the campus of Empire State University.
After Gwen said goodbye to her friends, they went their separate ways.
Along the way, she felt more relaxed than ever.
Especially during rehearsal, Gwen was surprised to find that her drumming skills and her cooperation with her team members were much better than before.
Maybe that's the benefit of having powers.
"What else can I use these powers for?"
Gwen feels like she can use her powers for more things.
At that moment, a commotion not far away caught Gwen's attention.
Upon clearly seeing the protagonist of the incident, her expression changed and she immediately ran over.
A group of bullies on campus are bullying another student.
And that student is none other than his friend, Peter Parker.
The moment Peter was suddenly pushed and fell to the ground, Gwen appeared to defend him.
"Hey! What are you guys doing?"
Seeing that it was Gwen, the bullies no longer dared to bother Peter.
Practically everyone at Empire State University knows that her father is the NYPD police captain.
It was also because of this identity that many who wanted to get closer to her were discouraged.
"Parker fell alone, this has nothing to do with us."
"Look, Peter Parker letting a woman protect him."
What happened here quickly attracted the attention of students passing by.
Gwen helped Peter off the floor and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, Peter?"
"I'm fine, thank you, Gwen."
"Let's get out of here, Peter."
Peter looked at the bully, he didn't care what happened, he was used to it a long time ago.
But the bullies were not happy, how could they accept that a cowardly runt like him could approach a beauty like Gwen?
"Haha! Parker is a coward!"
"Only cowards need a woman's protection."
Many of those who were present watching the show also began to boo.
Peter wanted to turn around and leave, but Gwen grabbed Peter's arm and then looked at the bullies: "That's enough, apologize to Peter now!"
Gwen, who grew up under George's upbringing, has a strong sense of justice.
She came to help Peter, not just because Peter was her friend.
But she also can't stand seeing someone being bullied.
Gwen's reaction was not something the bullies were expecting, and even the people watching on the side shut up immediately.
Only Peter beside Gwen continued to speak, "Gwen, stop it. I'm not hurt."
"Let's go."
Gwen looked at Peter, "Peter, if you keep doing this, they're going to keep bullying you."
"Today they will apologize to you!"
Seeing more and more students gathered around, the bullies suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Wouldn't that make them lose their dignity?
But she's the police captain's daughter, so if something happens to her...
They don't even want to imagine what would happen to them.
They all could only lower their heads, and whisper an apology to Peter.
After speaking, they left immediately.
Seeing that they were gone, the surrounding students also dispersed.
There's no need to stay if there's no drama going on.
"Thank you, Gwen."
Peter thanked Gwen again.
"You're welcome, this was something I had to do, and we're friends."
"By the way, why are you here right now? Shouldn't you be helping Dr. Connors?"
"Some important instruments are missing from the lab. I went to Oscorp Industries to ask for more."
"Also, the last batch of materials for the experiments has just arrived."
Gwen patted Peter on the shoulder and said seriously, "I understand... And Peter, if those guys bully you again in the future, you have to start resisting."
"The weaker you show yourself, the more they will intimidate you."
"I understand, Gwen."
"I have to go back to the laboratory and deliver the experiment data to Dr. Connors, see you later Gwen."
After speaking, Peter ran towards the laboratory without looking back.
Gwen also turned and left towards the gate, constantly thinking about what had happened at that moment.
That feeling of helping someone else.
It was as if her DNA had been activated.
"Perhaps..."
As she approached the school gate, Gwen suddenly stopped and said happily, "Maybe I know where my powers should be used..."
Gwen felt enlightened...

On Arthur's terrace.
Arthur, who had just woken up after a nap, remembered that he hadn't logged in yet today.
"System, please login..."
[Login successful]
[Congratulations, the host received Martial Art - Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist]
[Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, is a martial art invented and taught by Bang, the S-class hero known as Silver Fang from the anime world One Punch Man. Bang invented the techniques while studying with his brother, Bomb. It is a style founded on the basis of Tai Chi and allows the user to redirect attacks and attack the target's vital points, potentially knocking down an opponent stronger than the user themselves. Users of this martial art can repel their opponents' attacks, nullify them or redirect them with more power. However, it is not possible for the user to redirect attacks that are significantly more powerful than the user's own strength.]
Upon seeing his reward, Arthur's eyes lit up.
"Yesss!! Finally!!"
"It's about time I gained this fighting style."
[Want to integrate: Martial Art – Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist]
[Yes/No]
"But of course I do!"
In an instant, all the knowledge of movements and techniques, along with some type of muscle memory, were passed straight to Arthur's brain.
It was as if Arthur had been training his entire life.
"Okay, now I want to test this..."
"Ahh... Let's leave it for another time. It's almost time for me to go to that meeting..."
"What a bummer..."
--------
VRUMM!!!
The roar of the engine came from the basement, followed by a black shadow coming out of the underground garage.
After making a perfect drift and flick, Arthur entered the main road and drove towards the destination with full power.
In less than fifteen minutes, Arthur arrived at the Fisk Universal Pictures office.
"Mr. Morgan, our general manager has been waiting for you inside for a while now."
"Please come in."
"Good."
Arthur opened the door and saw a large man with a tattoo on half of his face sitting in an office chair with a cigarette in his mouth.
There was also a woman dressed as a secretary sitting on his lap.
Judging by the secretary's disheveled hair and the man's slightly unbuttoned jacket.
This secretary and the general manager probably had an ugly argument over some accident at work.
Upon seeing Arthur arriving, the tattooed man stood up and took a contract from under the table.
"Mr. Morgan, since you're already here, you can sign the contract."
Arthur narrowed his eyes.
(Is this guy retarded? Why would I sign a contract before even saying a word?)
Apparently sensing Arthur's doubts, the tattooed man explained, "After discussion with our board of directors, we have decided to purchase the rights to adapt your books for the high price of ten dollars."
"What do you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight men in black suits walked through the door and surrounded Arthur.
Arthur finally understood what was going on here.
(So this is an attempt to buy by force)
(It turned out to be that kind of company.)
(Hehehe... My luck strikes once again, it looks like I'll be able to test my skills now)
"What if I don't want to?"
Arthur smiled teasingly.
"Don't you want to?"
"Okay then, guys, teach dude a lesson."
Arthur smiled when he saw the men approaching him.
Snap!
"I'm going to enjoy doing this~" Arthur spoke with a wild smile on his face as he snapped his fingers.
The men suddenly felt a chill down their spine, it was as if they were in front of a predator.
(End of chapter)
Brothers and sisters, I have great news, I'll finally be able to get back to our update schedule.
Unfortunately, it won't be until January 2nd next year.
As for why I haven't updated anything in the last few days, Ahh... Some relatives came to celebrate Christmas here at my house, unfortunately they won't be leaving until January 1st.
Getting back to the subject, since I still had some things to do, the bastards left the kids with me and went out... As far as I know, they went to some kind of party that was going on at the beach near where I live.
Having said that... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! even though I'm two days late hehehe.
I also wish a happy new year to everyone who's already early, because maybe, just maybe, I won't be able to post anything on that day.
