ALL NOVEL Chapter 100: 98
Thoris: Why did you have to bring the clown? You have plenty of options so why pick the worst one?
Harley: Fuck you too bitch!
"Thoris please try to be civil with her we just arrived after dealing with an unprovoked attack on our way here and Harley please restrain yourself she is my wife. You don't have to like each other but try to keep things amicable between you"
They still didn't like each other and if the other was dying they probably wouldn't lift a finger to help. At least now they weren't verbally sniping each other at every opportunity just reluctantly tolerating each other.
Thoris decided to go over a few projects that were currently in the works from manufacturing living tissue to improving space travel. As we made our way to the corporate side where various office workers from other countries and companies meandered in what appeared to be a newly established restaurant. It was very upscale but also casual each individual here are important captains of industry.
I also noticed various fully furnished offices surrounding the the dining area but they were locked off from outsiders. I knew that we don't have the staff to fill them at the moment so clearly Miranda was planning for future expansion. Thoris had just sat us down when a very gorgeous woman decided to sit down with us her beautiful silver hair made it clear who she is.
Silver Sable: So you are the infamous prophet of the god emperor of mankind?
"I wouldn't say infamous nor would I claim the title of prophet but yeah I am Julian Black and you must be Silvija Sablinova your reputation proceeds you"
Silvija: I hope you mean that in a positive light as I am very interested in working with your company
"Oh really and in what capacity..."
Miranda Lawson: That is still being discussed as we have yet to come to definite terms although most details have been ironed out
Miranda showed up unexpectedly while Silvija was trying to Honey pot me for better advantages in her contract. It was obvious and I was a well known on my stance of wanting a harem I would have done the same if not more in her position. Miranda wasn't alone as Lady Mechanika her secretary was right beside her along with Nadin the spokeswoman of the scientific department. It seemed like these three were practical joined at the hip as they were constantly seen together directing the company's future.
Following not to far behind was a man covered in metal from head to toe and definitely wasn't Ironman. He was the undisputed ruler Latveria which just so happens to be the neighboring country to Symkaria. It seemed like the universe was playing a sick joke on me but I had a morbid curiosity to see how this would pan out.
Doom: Good, you're finally here the herald for the new god emperor of mankind
"If you came to give by your support good the emperor of mankind for this reality could use it"
Doom: Are you implying that I am not the one?
"You once had the potential to be the Emperor of mankind but you strayed from the path now any possibility is nothing but an illusion of things that can no longer be"
Doom: How can you be so certain that it isn't me and what do you mean I strayed from the path?
"The reason why you are desperate to rule the world is because you see the problem that I see but through your own actions and the deals you made you fell from your path. To be the Emperor there can be no compromise in yourself and I know you understand what I mean"
Everyone became deathly silent expecting Doom to explode into a rage which left many afraid of what he might do. Surprisingly Doom did nothing he sat there reflecting on everything in his life looking for the exact time he stepped off the path. Then he let out a tired sigh as if he finally relented and accepted a hard truth one that he didn't want to face. He even seemed somewhat vindicated by the fact that he was a potential candidate for the throne even if now it was out of reach. This was most likely due to the fact that he somehow knew that neither Reed nor Luthor were even considered for the role. I don't know if this would last but for now it seems Doom wouldn't cause any issues for the foreseeable future.
