King suspected from the beginning that Loki had ulterior motives for boarding the aircraft carrier.

Thor found King's words strange as well. Given Loki's personality, going to the S.H.I.E.L.D. carrier was definitely not a sneak attack, but rather part of a planned operation.

Meanwhile, Loki, the subject of the conversation, was pacing back and forth in his small cell, then suddenly smiled and spoke to the newcomer.

"Hmph, not many people can get close to me secretly without being detected."

"But you still expected me to come."

[Black Widow Vermouth stood in front of Loki's cell and spoke.]

"You're too early."

"Could it be that Black Widow Vermouth, like Agent Hawkeye Shirou, has also been controlled by Loki with his Mind Scepter?"

Sakura Chiyo, watching the mysterious conversation between Black Widow Vermouth and Loki on the light screen, suddenly became nervous and made a guess.

Nozaki Umetarou, who was standing nearby, felt that it was probably not as simple as Sakura Chiyo had described.

"After that guy King went to great lengths to torment me."

"That's why you show up, then feign concern to comfort me, and I'll obediently cooperate with you because of that."

"I remember this is called 'one plays the good cop, one plays the bad cop' in the real world, right?"

Loki, with an air of knowing exactly what I was thinking, walked towards Black Widow Vermouth while saying this.

"No, I'm just here to find out what you did to Agent Shirou Hawkeye Emiya."

"Oh, this? Hehe."

Loki chuckled a few times upon hearing Black Widow Vermouth's words, then answered her question.

"I broadened his mind, freeing him from narrow and ignorant folly."

"What will happen to his mind once you win, once you become the king of the earth?"

Black Widow Vermouth wouldn't believe Loki's talk of expanding minds; no matter how you looked at it, Hawkeye Shirou seemed to have his mind controlled by Loki.

"Does this concern your teammates' safety, Black Widow?"

"It's just that I owe him a favor."

[Black Widow Vermouth said, arms crossed.]

"Tell me about it."

Loki's attitude was one of "you can't get any information from me unless I tell you."

Vermouth knew that if she didn't speak, Loki wouldn't be able to utter a single sound, so she took a deep breath and slowly began to speak.

"Before I joined S.H.I.E.L.D., I was already somewhat well-known within certain circles."

"I don't care who I serve or which organization I work for."

"Back then, I was serving another organization, an organization called the Distillery, which has since been destroyed."

"Click."

"Oh!"

Gin, upon hearing Black Widow Vermouth's words, angrily crushed the glass in his hand to pieces. His own guess and what he heard with his own ears were completely different feelings.

Vodka wanted to comfort his older brother, but Gin's aura was too strong in his current state of rage, so much so that he didn't dare to breathe.

"After that, I was targeted by S.H.I.E.L.D."

"It was Hawkeye Shirou who was sent by S.H.I.E.L.D. to kill me."

"Despite my excellent disguise and a range of skills, I couldn't escape his eagle eyes."

"Later, I was also cornered by Mihawk Shirou Emiya. Just when I thought he was going to kill me, he didn't, but let me go."

"Then, with the destruction of the distillery, I was recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D. and became one of their agents."

[When Black Widow Vermouth spoke, she still had an expression that moved one to tears, evoking feelings of concern and affection. Whether it was an act or not, it had no effect on Loki.]

"What would you do if I let him go?"

Loki sat in the cell chair, looking at Black Widow Vermouth with an amused expression.

"I won't let you out."

"I know, but I like it this way."

"Your world is in turmoil, yet you're here haggling with me over your teammates."

Sakura Tohsaka glared at Vermouth, the Black Widow, inside the light screen. She knew that Shirou Emiya had been teased by this guy when he visited the Light Screen organization.

Sakura Tohsaka wonders if Shirou Emiya would like this kind of mature, older-sister type of girl.

After all, if Shirou Emiya and this woman were to team up in the future, it would be disastrous if they triggered the suspension bridge effect during a mission.

"The regime is declining every day, and I won't feel sad about it."

【"Yeah."】

"It's simple, I owe money, so I have to pay it back."

"Can you do it?"

"You've paid off so much debt, but you owe a lot. I know all that, after all, your good teammate, Hawkeye Shirou, told me everything."

"Do you really think saving someone who's not much better than you will change anything?"

"How sentimental, like a praying child, how pathetic!"

"You lied for liars, you killed for killers."

"You pretend to be alone, you have your own principles, and the fear in your heart is compensated for."

"But they are a part of you, and they will never disappear."

Loki walked up to the glass of the prison and spoke to Black Widow, Vermouth.

Meanwhile, S.H.I.E.L.D. detected an illegal virus intrusion, and Captain Rogers infiltrated the secure warehouse and found something extraordinary.

Loki's words unfolded in tandem with these events, making it seem as if every word he uttered would hasten the collapse of S.H.I.E.L.D.

[“Bang!”]

"I won't hurt Mihawk Shirou, until I force him to kill you."

"Slowly."

"Familiar."

"He killed you in the way he knew you were most afraid of, and then..."

Loki slammed his fist against the glass of the cage, producing a dull thud. Then, his elegant features contorted into a ferocious expression as he spoke.

"Then I will unlock his mind, letting him slowly awaken and appreciate his own masterpiece, the horrific deaths of his teammates."

Black Widow Vermouth turned and left, but Loki continued muttering behind her.

"Then, while he's distracted, I'll split his skull open."

"This is my deal, you crybaby."

"Click."

Inside a bar, Vermouth, disguised, was drinking and watching the screen when she saw this scene. She angrily squeezed the glass in her hand until it cracked.

The bartender standing nearby also spoke up.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this god named Loki is such a cruel guy. He separated a pair of partners and then tricked one of them into killing the other."

"Then wake him up and let him see the teammate he killed, and then fuck him stupidly."

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk."

The bartender shook his head as he spoke. After all, this wasn't the bartender at Deadpool's Kazuma Sato's place, who was "well-informed" and therefore felt cruel about what Loki had done.

"This kind of guy can't be called a god, he's just an alien."

Vermouth listened to the bartender's words and said.

"You cruel bastard."

[Black Widow Vermouth also stopped and said.]

"Oh, no."

Loki, instead of becoming angry upon hearing this, smiled, seemingly pleased with Vermouth's reaction.

"You brought forth beasts."

Black Widow Vermouth turned around and spoke as well, listening to Loki's words.

"Yes, Dr. Senku Ishigami."

【"What?!"】

Suddenly, Black Widow Vermouth turned and left, simultaneously reporting to the authorities.

"Loki plans to turn Senku Ishigami into the Hulk. He'll have Dr. Senku stay in the lab for now. I'm coming."

"Also, tell Thor to go there immediately."
