A crossover movie viewing experience, kicking off Marvel's Endgame.

Originally, Light Yagami hadn't thought about the factions within the Avengers, but he did recall the post-credits scene where Deadpool Kazuma Sato had a story called "Heroes Civil War."

Therefore, Light Yagami was also wondering if the civil war was caused by some kind of conflict between the two hero leaders of the AB faction, Zhuge Cong and Captain Rogers.

After all, in "The Avengers," although the Mind Bender was subtly influencing everyone's emotions, Light Yagami still noticed a significant difference in the styles of Zhuge Cong and Captain Rogers.

Therefore, Light Yagami also had a premonition that if a civil war broke out among the heroes, it was very likely that something would act as the trigger, and that Zhuge Cong and Captain Rogers would become the ones who ignited this fire called the civil war among the heroes because of their personality differences.

------------

What would we be like in the hearts of these two people?

Otosaka Hayabusa thought to himself.

As the leader of one of the mutant factions, the dean of Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youngsters, and now just an ordinary student council president, Tsubasa Otosaka became more focused as he watched Zhuge Cong and Rogers on the screen discussing mutants.

Although the events on the screen may not be the same as in the future for some reason, Tsubasa Otosaka is still very concerned, since some things can be changed, while others are unavoidable.

"What do you think we are in the hearts of these two, Falcon Wing?"

The beast-eared bear looked at Otosaka Hayato and said something. Otosaka Hayato was thinking about how to answer when he heard the bear's words. He was still wondering what these two thought of them as mutants when he was asked the question the next second. However, Otosaka Hayato still thought about it for a moment.

Zhuge Cong's impression of mutants shouldn't have been very good to begin with. After all, his younger brother, Magneto Yuu Otosaka, had treated Yuu's friend Hachiman Hikigaya like a toy, throwing him into the sea and nearly drowning him. Although Zhuge Cong knew that Magneto Yuu Otosaka wasn't from their faction of mutants, he was aware of his relationship with Magneto Yuu Otosaka.

So even though he stepped in to help when the Chitauri army arrived, Otosaka Hayato was still worried that Zhuge Cong might still have some reservations about mutants.

Captain Rogers was dealing with mutants for the first time, and it was the mutants who came to his aid. Otosaka Hayato thought that Captain Rogers should have a better impression of them.

"I think it should be pretty good, after all, we lent a helping hand. I'm just worried about Iron Man Zhuge Cong, since his friend War Machine almost drowned in the sea last time."

After thinking for a while, Otosaka Hayabusa spoke to the beast bear ears.

"Yeah."

Meanwhile, Nana, watching Kumagami and Otosaka Hayato, sensed a thick, sad barrier that had grown between them.

"That's right, they're called mutants, not superhumans. 'Mutant' is practically the official title, and that's what they call themselves."

[Zhuge Cong explained to Captain Rogers.]

"You already know about superpowers—I mean, mutants—did you investigate after you returned from that great war?"

"No, it was much earlier, much earlier, when you were still sleeping in the ice. I found out after I escaped from the terrorists."

"You summoned me here to ask about mutants, right?"

【"Um."】

Captain Rogers had originally intended to inquire about Zhuge Cong's story of escaping from terrorists, but Zhuge Cong immediately changed the subject, so Captain Rogers had to give up and instead inquired about the main purpose of his visit.

"Mutants are a group of people hidden within society who possess various abilities. Of course, their energy varies in strength, but most are weak. However, even the weaker ones are still quite powerful compared to ordinary people. They would likely be powerless against the Chitauri army's invasion."

"Similarly, for some reason, they have been hiding themselves and not exposing their existence to the public. I don't know the specific reasons."

[Zhuge Cong lied about the last sentence; he actually knew quite a bit about why mutants didn't reveal themselves.]

Zhuge Cong glanced at Rogers, deciding it was best not to reveal the dark side of politics to him.

"Of course, I thought the Avengers would be fighting alone against this Chitauri invasion, but I didn't expect those mutants to show up, and they're really powerful ones at that."

[Zhuge Cong wasn't lying about this; he knew their identities the moment those mutants showed themselves.]

[The four mutants from Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youngsters, one of the two major mutant factions, are Cyclops Yuzaki Hoshizora, Colossus Maebo, Beast Bear Ears, and Wolverine Juryujiro—these are considered quite powerful.]

【"Yeah."】

After listening to Zhuge Cong's words, Captain Rogers appeared deep in thought. Seeing this, Zhuge Cong roughly guessed what Captain Rogers was thinking about.

"If you're thinking of going to thank the mutants or anything, you'd better give up. Do you think they'll just quietly slip away after the war? They have their reasons for doing so."

"And if you're talking about inviting mutants to join S.H.I.E.L.D. or the Avengers, you'd better give up on that idea as soon as possible."

【"Why?"】

Captain Rogers looked at Zhuge Cong and said, "Zhuge Cong is indeed right about one thing: he has indeed considered bringing mutants into S.H.I.E.L.D. or the Avengers."

[This way, no matter what their reason for not wanting to reveal themselves, with S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers backing them up, they shouldn't have too much to fear.]

"There aren't that many whys, Captain."

"Do you think the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. hasn't considered this idea? King knew about mutants long before you did, but look at him now."

Are there mutants involved in S.H.I.E.L.D. or the Avengers?

Captain Rogers slowly shook his head after hearing Zhuge Cong's words.

"Since there isn't one, doesn't that imply that mutants won't join S.H.I.E.L.D. or the Avengers?"

After hearing Zhuge Cong's words, Captain Rogers gradually calmed down from his initial thoughts.

"There are no mutants in S.H.I.E.L.D., but there are Skrulls."

Zhuge Cong thought to himself.

Then Zhuge Cong glanced at Hikigaya Hachiman.

"What's wrong?"

Hachiman Hikigaya noticed Zhuge Cong looking at him and asked him a question.

"nothing."

Zhuge Cong shook his head. He remembered that War Machine was replaced by the Skrulls after the Civil War, and the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. on Earth was also replaced by the Skrulls. The Skrulls' racial abilities could be considered Mystique's superior abilities.

Not only can they transform into other people's appearances, but they can also possess the memories of the copied person and even use their abilities.

Mystique can only replicate appearances and other external features; she can't replicate memories, let alone abilities.

"And let me tell you something else: the mutant community isn't actually very good internally. Mutants are divided into three major factions."

Captain Rogers raised an eyebrow in confusion after hearing Zhuge Cong's words.

[Then, Zhuge Cong informed Captain Rogers about the situation with the mutants, summarizing it in one sentence.]

"Every family has its own troubles."

302: Iron Man's Anxiety Disorder

"Don't think too much about mutants."

[Zhuge Cong poured a glass of wine and handed it to Captain Rogers. This was the same wine Zhuge Cong had used to stall for time while talking to Loki. Loki had refused Zhuge Cong's invitation to have a drink back then. Captain Rogers, seeing the glass Zhuge Cong offered, accepted it without refusing.]

"By the way, would you like to see my new armor?"

Qianxun (III) (II) (III) (IX)

"No need, you'll see it next time. I'll take my leave now."

Captain Rogers finished his drink and then rose to take his leave.

"That's all for now. I won't see you off. Goodbye."

Zhuge Cong shrugged. If he didn't want to look, he didn't. After Captain Rogers left, Zhuge Cong slowly stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window. Looking down at the peaceful and bustling city below, Zhuge Cong's heart was anything but peaceful, unlike the tranquil city itself.

[Actually, no one knew that after the Chitauri army's invasion, Zhuge Cong developed anxiety. Unfortunately, he couldn't tell anyone and had to keep it all to himself. Seeking treatment from a psychologist was even more impossible. Zhuge Cong was very worried about whether they could win the next enemy attack, and if they did, what the price would be.]

The more Zhuge Cong thought about it, the more anxious he became, and a plan slowly began to emerge in his mind.

The light screen gradually dimmed, but this dimming was particularly unusual. As it faded, only a single figure remained – Zhuge Cong's figure. Then, starting from his feet, the figure was slowly swallowed by darkness until the entire light screen was completely black.

"This is."

"This is a sign of turning evil!"

As Natsuki Subaru watched the final close-up of Zhuge Cong's figure on the light screen, coupled with Zhuge Cong's earlier inner thoughts that a plan was gradually emerging, Natsuki Subaru began to understand.

No matter how Natsuki Subaru looks at it or thinks about it, he feels that Zhuge Cong is on the verge of turning to the dark side. Perhaps Zhuge Cong will become that kind of extreme guy, that is, a so-called mad scientist.

----------

"Iron Man Zhuge Cong's mental state will be in trouble."

"No, there's already a problem."

Hoshino Aiku Aikai looked at the scene in the light screen where Zhuge Cong was finally standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, and the scene behind him was swallowed by darkness, and said.

In his previous life, he was a doctor, although not a specialist in psychology, but he still knew quite a lot about it.

If someone with anxiety disorder, like Iron Man Zhuge Cong, doesn't receive treatment and keeps it bottled up inside, it will have a huge impact on them.

In addition, Iron Man Zhuge Cong also has the identity of a hero, and he usually wears the Iron Man armor to carry out justice. If his anxiety disorder is severe, it might harm Zhuge Cong one day when he is out on a mission.

Although Zhuge Cong seems normal now, Hoshino Aiku and Aikai know that if this continues, anxiety will cause Zhuge Cong to have headaches, dizziness, vertigo, feel a tightness in his throat, difficulty breathing, and his heart to beat faster with the slightest stimulation. Moreover, Zhuge Cong's heart seems to be injured.

He has difficulty concentrating, is often irritable and confused, has no peace during the day and restless at night, and is constantly thinking in his mind about whether he will fail, what the outcome will be, whether the development will go smoothly, and whether there will be any accidents... All kinds of anxiety and fear will involuntarily emerge, which will undoubtedly cause Zhuge Cong to have a serious impact on the optimization of his armor.

Moreover, even in normal times, Zhuge Cong would become stressed. Thinking about this, Hoshino Aiku and Aikai also knew that although Zhuge Cong seemed to have successfully sent the nuclear bomb into the portal and survived, it also left him with a very serious aftereffect: anxiety disorder.

"Hopefully, the Light Screen Iron Man can overcome his past."

Hoshino Aiku thought to herself, after all, this was the content inside the light screen, and Zhuge Cong in reality was completely fine.

--------------

"Could it be that Zhuge Cong's anxiety disorder caused him to trigger a series of events, leading to the outbreak of the civil war among heroes?"

Light Yagami immediately thought of "Heroes Civil War," since Zhuge Cong, mentioned there, suffers from anxiety disorder and cannot receive effective treatment. Light Yagami wondered if this might be the trigger for the Heroes Civil War.
