Tony had originally wanted to build a Stark industrial empire and an intelligent network hub to protect Earth.
But now...
He felt somewhat disheartened.
Because continuing like this no longer seemed worth it to Tony.
The best opportunity had probably already passed.
Tony also knew that he no longer had a chance.
At this moment.
Tony clenched one hand into a fist and pressed it against his mouth, thinking through the entire night.
"Friday."
"Sir?"
"Maybe your second option was right."
"Sir, but that choice would place the Avengers under United Nations restrictions. Captain America would not agree to it."
"That's his problem. If he has an issue, he can deal with it. I'll do what I need to do."
"Sir..."
"Enough. Bring up the armor interface. Let's start researching a new type of armor."
"Yes, sir."

P.S.: A new book isn't easy!!! I humbly beg all you handsome readers to spare some flowers, rating votes, monthly tickets, or comments to support me. Many thanks—even just typing a 1 in the comments would help!!!
The next day.
After placing the True Sight Ward in his office.
Su Yi spent the morning slacking off.
He basically treated every morning as slacking-off time.
No one came to see a psychologist at this hour.
Besides, he did not like working during this time.
Over time.
People who wanted psychological consultations began coming at noon or in the afternoon instead.
So Su Yi spent his mornings playing games, reading books, watching the news, scrolling on his phone, and doing all sorts of other things.
However, when Stephen did not have surgery, he would also come early to chat with Su Yi.
He usually came in the morning to book Su Yi's time for the evening.
Then, once five o'clock arrived.
The two of them would close up their doors.
And head straight out to have fun!
Normally.
If there were clients in the afternoon, there were clients. If not, he slacked off.
Uh... that was about it.
Anyway, Su Yi was living quite happily.
He made plenty of money, had little work, avoided trouble, and still looked impressive.
And he could check in every day and wait to grow stronger.
Wasn't that just perfect?
By noon.
Su Yi was reclining in his lounge chair, scrolling through TikTok.
He could not help it.
There were too many "bodhisattvas" on there.
All kinds of lightly dressed "bodhisattvas" were sharing benefits on the platform.
There were also all kinds of bizarre and funny videos.
It was hard for Su Yi not to love it.
Of course, he only scrolled through it when he was alone.
Don't ask. Asking meant admitting that doing it around other people would ruin his image and be embarrassing.
"Hm?"
At that moment, Su Yi suddenly sat up as he kept scrolling.
A flash of golden light flickered in his eyes.
"Wanda?"
That was right.
Su Yi sensed someone with immense power and an exceptionally powerful mind approaching his building.
After sensing more closely, he realized.
Wasn't that Chaos Magic?
And the person possessing Chaos Magic was Wanda, also known as the Scarlet Witch.
Just like that.
Under Su Yi's perception.
Wanda crossed the zebra crossing, walked down the street, and entered the building where he was located.
Then, after others entered the elevator.
She deliberately waited for an empty elevator before taking it up.
Finally, she arrived outside his door.
Su Yi thought for a moment, then nodded and said.
"Come in."
Upon hearing his voice.
Wanda's hand froze on the doorknob.
Then she pushed open the door and walked inside.
After she entered, Su Yi first looked Wanda over.
Blue jeans, an oversized hooded sweatshirt, and she had even kept her hood up when she came in.
She kept her head lowered the entire time, not even facing him.
Su Yi smiled, then pushed a cup of milk tea toward her and said.
"When you come here, I won't be surprised no matter who you are."
As he spoke, Su Yi gestured toward the framed photograph of himself with Hulk that was still on the table.
Wanda turned to look.
When she discovered the photo of Su Yi with Hulk, she was slightly surprised.
Because Hulk had vanished. No matter how the Avengers searched, they could not find him. Tony had even used Friday to search cameras across the entire world, yet saw nothing.
Yet here was someone who knew Hulk and could even take a photo with him while he was in Hulk form!
Wanda knew how powerful Hulk was.
Even setting aside the Chitauri Civilization invasion.
The destruction Hulk caused to the city after she used magic to drive him berserk had left Wanda feeling...
Well, thinking about it now.
That had been Wanda's own doing too.
But after seeing the photo of Su Yi and Hulk.
Wanda did indeed let down much of her guard.
"Hello, I'm Wanda Maximoff."
"My name is Su Yi."
As they introduced themselves, Wanda raised her head and reached up to pull down her hood.
