Stark, War Machine, the Fantastic Four, Captain Marvel, Spider-Woman, Black Widow, Blue Miracle, Spectrum, and Luke Cage and his wife. Captain America stared at those familiar avatars on the screen without speaking for a long time. He had never wavered before, yet today, he could not help wondering: if their roles were reversed, if he stood in Stark's position, what would he do?
The answer was discouraging. If he were the one on the run now, he would hold out to the end as well. Surrender? Impossible.
A knock sounded at the door. He hurriedly put away his emotions and became once more the fighter willing to battle for America's freedom.
His daughter, Sharon Rogers, entered. She had been ordered to find Doctor Strange, but judging by this, she had returned empty-handed.
"Wong at the Sanctum said Doctor Strange went to the Arctic. He plans to meditate while fasting, searching for a way to resolve the conflict between both sides."
She repeated the words exactly, but Captain America did not believe them. Meditation? Where could he not meditate? Why did he have to go meditate in the Arctic at a time like this? And fast besides? What a joke!
Every country was hinting that he should secretly enter Wakanda and carry out an arrest operation.
Even if Captain America's stance had begun to loosen, he had never been to Wakanda, and very few people had actually visited that nation.
Back when Wakanda established diplomatic relations with governments around the world, people had used the main route. Now, that route had been sealed off by the Reality Stone and the Space Stone. Those who had been to Wakanda were people like Daisy, Storm, and Namor. They were either not home or had vanished years ago, leaving not even a trace behind.
