Chapter 227 - 227



[Kamar-Taj, Nepal]

The Ancient One released a huge sigh… that she herself didn\'t even know she was holding in. She had been watching Reo since he had appeared in Nebraska City, even though she had decided not to oppose Reo it didn\'t mean she didn\'t care about innocent lives… she was relieved that only soldiers were killed in the confrontation… ​​

Yes, they were innocent too, they were just following orders but they could have deserted their ranks and run away. But no! Their stupid pride won\'t let them do that! They attacked Reo and they died when Reo retaliated… that is why there is a saying… never poke a sleeping dragon… well, in this case, Leviathan. If they haden\'t poked Reo then they would have been alive.

"At least he allowed the citizens to leave along with their children" The Ancient One spoke to herself. Yes, she was unable to see Reo\'s future but she could use other forms of mystic arts to watch the present.

"I need to arrange another meeting with Reo" she mused to herself. She knew that she won\'t be able to change anything but at least she wanted to get some idea about how far Reo was willing to take it. She also wanted to talk about the Phoenix Force living on that island… Destruction and Creation living in the same place gives her some very disturbing thoughts.

[POV Natasha]

I sat down at the dining table… it was empty today. I checked my wristwatch and found that I wasn\'t early… yes, I might have earlier than the other girls but I am definitely not earlier than Reo. Since the first day, whenever I arrived in the kitchen I have seen Reo preparing the food… this was the first day Reo wasn\'t present.

It might have something to do with yesterday, I have seen the whole broadcast along with the others. I was quite pleased that he didn\'t kill any citizens. To be honest, I wouldn\'t have cared even if he had killed several citizens but I would be happy that unnecessary casualties were avoided…

I wasn\'t a ruthless spy just for show… I have been trained with that kind of mindset. I want to forget that part of my life… I want to forget all those so badly and move on but that is not possible. If I forget that part of my life I will forget who and what I am… after all, that part of my life makes me what I am today. I still remember the chat I had with Nemuri. That certainly helped a lot… more than whatever I had ever expected.

I was brought out of my musing by a slight pop from the side. My instincts immediately kicked in and my hand shot towards my waist for my gun but I found nothing… only then I remembered that I didn\'t need to carry a gun anymore. It wasn\'t necessary… that was a huge burden lifted from my shoulders. Leaving that aside, I still turned my head towards the direction from where the pop sound came from…

I found an odd-looking little creature staring at me with his tennis ball-sized eyes. Even though I wanted to freak out my spy training stopped me from doing that. A plus point to my training there… it forces me to think rationally in situations where I should be freaking out while screaming!!

"What can Jevies bring for Missy Nats?" the odd-looking elfish creature asked me… or I think it asked me. I pointed a finger at myself and the elfish creature nodded its head excitedly.

"What are you?" before I could ask anything from it I decided to deal with the elephant in the room.

"Jevies is a house-elf working for Lady Ravenclaw" the elfish creature answered. House-Elf? What the fuck is a house-elf??

"If you don\'t mind me asking can you tell me what is a house-elf?" I asked with curiosity clear in my voice. Jevies the house-elf still looked excited even after it heard my question so it was pretty clear that it wasn\'t bothered by my question.

"House-elves needs to be bonded with Wizards and Witches to live off their magics. In return, house-elves helps witches and wizards with chores in the houses" Jevies answered with a thoughtful look on its face. Does it mean slaves?

"You mean to say \'slavery\'?" I asked Jevies in an incredulous tone. From what I heard from Jevies, it kind of seemed like slavery but it was clear that Jevies didn\'t like it if anything I understood from its facial expressions.

"No, no, no!! No Slavery. We house-elves must be bonded with witches and wizards or we wither and die. Lady Ravenclaw treats us very nicely… yes, she is the greatest witch ever" Jevies began to speak vehemently at the beginning but then its voice turned almost fanatical… well, I guess I presumed too quickly. If they really need to bond with a witch and wizard to live then they must be something like a parasite…

And who the hell is Lady Ravenclaw?? Looks like more questions are popping into my mind rather than the answers. "Jevies can you tell me where the others are?" I asked the small creature.

"Oh, yes! Lady Ravenclaw is making babies along with her sisters. She assigned us to prepare food today, she told me she is going to be slightly late. Missy Jeanne and Roro will be here shortly" Jevies said in an excited tone… making babies? Oh… honestly, I don\'t want to know about that anymore. From Jeanne and Roro I think it meant Jean and Ororo.

"Can you bring me some coffee?" I asked Jevies who happily nodded his head and vanished, only after a few seconds a coffee mug appeared on the table out of thin air. Once again, I wanted to run away while screaming but I silently watched the coffee mug and picked it up, after waiting for a few seconds I took a small sip… no matter what house-elves can make coffee or at least Jevies can, I can\'t disagree with that.

Even though I was bored most of the time on this island, I can\'t disagree that I am definitely enjoying my freedom. I just need to find something to keep myself busy… I think I need to ask Reo and Nemuri about that. I know that they have helped me a lot but I don\'t know if I should ask someone else… from what I have seen… except for Reo\'s group, Jean and Ororo, others don\'t like me much because I am a normal human…

I hope that someday I would be able to get on their good side… I have heard from Nemuri that they went after someone named Sublime yesterday before they decided to destroy Nebraska. She mentioned that Sublime was the reason for the hate and discrimination between humans and meta-humans… I don\'t know why I have no hate for mutants though…

"Good morning Natasha, did you sleep well?" Jean and Ororo arrived in the kitchen and Jean greeted me first.

"Good morning Natasha" Ororo also greeted me while taking her seat.

"Good morning to both of you…" I greeted them back along with the usual pleasantries. The topic of conversation soon turned towards last night, specifically the broadcast. I don\'t know why but Jevies didn\'t make another appearance for Jean or Ororo.

"No matter how badly we were treated by humans, I am glad that the citizens were able to get out of the city unharmed… now, we also know that humans are not responsible for the hate between us" Ororo spoke trying to make a point but Jean didn\'t seem to agree with her. No, even if Sublime should be blamed I don\'t think that humans would have come to love meta-humans if Sublime didn\'t play his part.

I know how people work… especially the people in leadership positions. They simply hate whatever is not under their control and it was clear that meta-humans were not under their control… yes, it can be debated that some people might not have hated meta-humans instead they might have tried to help but it was still clear that meta-humans would still be hated and used as weapons…

"Ororo, we already know that humans would have still hated us. It is their natural fear of the unknown" Jean said with a serious look on her face. Ororo also nodded her head in agreement…

Finally, Reo and the others arrived in the kitchen, I could clearly see that all girls were glowing… not literally glowing, I meant the after-sex glow. I have to hand it to Reo, his stamina is out of this world, Jean and Ororo had a pinkish tint on their cheeks… it was clear that they also understood what Reo and the others were doing. As soon as they sat down, food appeared in front of us out of thin air. Must be the house-elves. Both Jean and Ororo were surprised and started to ask questions.

"Nemuri, can you assign me a job?" I asked her in a nervous tone. I honestly don\'t know what kind of job this pervert would assign me… she wasn\'t my first choice but then I remembered that she was the one who I knew better than anyone else on this island.

Just like I have thought, a perverted grin appeared on her face, and she leaned towards me to check me out… "Tell me, what do you know about science and Technology?" before Nemuri could speak up Momo interfered. Nemuri scoffed and backed away.

"I am no Ph.D. holder or inventor if you want to know. But I can work with anything if shown" I answered her truthfully. I have been trained to adapt technologically when needed. If she shows me I could work it out.

Momo thought for a few seconds before she nodded her head "Fine join me after breakfast… I think you would be a nice help" Momo said to me with a gentle smile on her face… well, at least it is much better than lazing around and getting bored…
