Chapter 464: Aisha Grows Up (Second Update)
Chapter 464: Aisha Grows Up (Second Update)
Inside the mini mansion in Queens, New York.
The moment Jerry stepped through the portal, he opened his Panel.
"Two million, not bad at all!"
Seeing the number of Red Stars on his Panel had already surpassed two million, a smile spread across his face.
It was worth it to run straight to help as soon as he returned to Earth, without even going home first. The rewards were indeed plentiful.
With over two million Red Stars, if he were to go to the Mini World, he could stay there for more than fifty years without using Mind Boost. Even if he used Mind Boost twenty-four hours a day, it would still last him four years.
However, unless there was a special situation, he rarely used Mind Boost anymore. The benefits of Mind Boost were no longer as significant for him, and many of its effects could be replaced by Magic.
In other words, for a long time, as long as he didn't encounter someone stronger than him who required him to use Red Stars to convert to magic power, he wouldn't have to worry about Red Stars.
"Should be just in time for lunch!"
Checking the time, it was not even ten in the morning. Jerry waved his hand, changing his Witch Robe into normal clothes, and then used Shadowstep to appear at the doorstep of the neighboring villa.
It was Sunday, and if everything was as expected, Has and the others should be at home.
"Ding dong!"
He pressed the doorbell, and in less than a minute, a tall and graceful figure opened the wooden door.
"Jerry!"
It was Aisha, who had grown to be as tall as Jerry's chin. The moment she saw Jerry standing at the door, she leaped into his arms with surprise and joy.
Although Jerry, her older brother, often teased her and increased her homework load, hindering her from going out to do good deeds, he had been the one who had mostly accompanied and taken care of her throughout her childhood. His sudden disappearance for three or four months without any news was something she couldn't help but miss.
Even when Jerry was in college, he would come home at least once or twice a week, and occasionally call or video chat.
This time, for nearly four months, due to the unique nature of his internship, he couldn't even make a phone call.
"Aisha, you've grown up so much!"
Seeing Aisha, Jerry couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. Aisha was now almost 1.6 meters tall. Perhaps it was due to her consistent milk drinking from a young age, or perhaps it was her natural talent, but her figure far exceeded that of her peers, even surpassing Teacher Berry.
People often feel that time passes slowly when they are children. But once they grow up, they realize that the children they once knew can suddenly become adults in the blink of an eye.
Sometimes, after years of working away from home, a sudden return reveals that the little kids who used to follow you around have turned into young men and women.
"Is that Jerry back?"
Hearing Aisha's shout, Has and Belle's surprised voices echoed from inside the house.
Next, Jerry saw Has, supporting Belle's heavily pregnant belly, which was clearly close to delivery, slowly making her way to the door.
"My internship ended two months early, so I came back first!"
Jerry released Aisha and smiled as he explained to Has and Belle.
Half a month later, Jerry sat in the living room, eating fruit while watching the news with his family.
The news reported that the government and people of Sokovia, to thank the Angel Witch for saving their city, had decided to build a massive statue of the Angel Witch in the central square.
There were also reports of the Pope of Vatican visiting the Avengers Alliance base multiple times but failing to meet the Angel Witch.
Additionally, there were incidents of Christians and Catholics collectively attacking some of the more extreme proponents of the Witch Threat Theory.
In short, after the events in Sokovia, with Jerry's videos going viral, most of the news now revolved around him.
Even the reasons for the robots' appearance, the establishment of the Avengers Alliance base, and the new Avengers members with distinctive appearances like blue skin, green skin, and tree-men, had become less significant.
Robots? Hammer Industries had already showcased those before, and the Avengers had been well-known for years. Establishing a new base was nothing out of the ordinary. As for the blue-skinned and green-skinned individuals, including tree-men, they didn't seem to cause much of a stir, not even as visually impactful as the Hulk.
On the other hand, the Angel Witch, with a towering two-hundred-meter-tall body and the image of a four-winged angel, who waved a hand to restore ruins to their former glory, was truly awe-inspiring and beyond scientific explanation.
Moreover, many Catholic and Christian believers had developed a fervent devotion to the Angel Witch.
It was well-known that some government officials, including the former president, had supported the Witch Threat Theory and made statements about the need to control Witches.
When the presidential election began a few days ago, the former president's votes hit a historic low.
In contrast, the former vice president, who had repeatedly expressed support for Witches and criticized those promoting the Witch Threat Theory, won the election with a high number of votes and became the current president.
Of course, Jerry didn't care about these matters. With his current power, he no longer needed to concern himself with the opinions of ordinary people.
This was also why he hadn't responded to the Pope's repeated requests for a meeting.
In fact, over the past half month, he had only occasionally visited the newly established Avengers Alliance base. Most of the time, he stayed at home with his family and even refrained from studying magic.
For others, it might seem like he had been gone for only a short while, but for him, it had been over a decade since he last saw his family.
So, before the cooldown period of the Mini World ended and he moved on to the next world, he decided to relax and spend quality time with his family.
"The time is up, I'm heading out!"
Aisha, who had been sitting next to Jerry watching the news, noticed it was already ten in the morning. She quickly changed clothes, grabbed her backpack, and rushed out.
"Don't stay out too late with Annie and the others, and remember to come back early!"
Has called out as Aisha was about to leave.
"Got it!"
Aisha replied, riding her bicycle out of the villa gates.
Jerry just smiled throughout, saying nothing.
He knew Aisha wasn't going shopping with Annie and the others but to the Avengers Alliance base in Northern New York to participate in the new Avengers members' training led by Captain America, Steve.
Indeed, a week after the Avengers Alliance base was established, Aisha had secretly gone there to apply and join.
