Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

After putting Daisy to sleep, Peter found the Mantis Woman squatting in front of the large fish tank, watching the goldfish.

The moment Mantis saw Peter, she couldn't help but smile sweetly; clearly, the happiness Peter exuded was a delightful treat for her.

"Ah~ I feel so happy, it's like pink bubbles are rising up, this is wonderful!"

Peter pinched her cheek as if playing with a doll, then took out the Romantic Cannon Pumpkin from his storage ring and handed it to her:

"Here, this is a gift for you."

"A gift?" The Mantis carefully accepted the Romantic Cannon, her big eyes sparkling.

Although she is nearly 100 years old, this is the first time she has received a gift.

"What is this? It's so beautiful!" the Mantis Woman said, pointing the gun at her own forehead.

Peter's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he quickly grabbed the barrel of the gun and forcibly turned it around:

"This is a gun, a long-range offensive weapon that can convert your mental energy into bullets."

"Pour your mental energy into it, then press here..."

Before he could finish speaking, his Observation Haki triggered a warning in his mind.

Without any hesitation, he immediately pointed the gun at himself and activated Armament Haki hardening.

boom!

An energy wave, as thick as an adult male's upper arm, slammed into Peter's chest.

The light wave lasted for about three or four seconds before gradually disappearing, and the Romantic Cannon was temporarily rendered unusable due to overheating.

hiss~

Peter gasped and instinctively rubbed his chest.

To be honest, its power is quite considerable.

It is far more destructive than Mine, the user of the Romantic Turret in the original anime "Akame ga Kill!".

With his current physique, Peter could withstand Tony's palm strikes without a scratch, even after activating Armament Haki Hardening.

But after enduring this romantic barrage, he felt a faint pain in his chest, roughly equivalent to being pinched.

With that kind of destructive power, if Peter hadn't shielded it with his body, the impact would have blasted the entire wall of S.H.I.E.L.D.

It could even shoot directly onto the street outside, sweeping the entire street clean.

And this was just a casual strike from the Mantis Woman...

"Giving you this weapon was definitely the right decision!"

Peter gently patted the Mantis's head and solemnly instructed her:

"But don't play with it when you're free. Save this for self-defense in a pinch."

After witnessing Peter's grimacing and baring of teeth while blocking the gun barrel, Mantis realized just how terrifying this weapon truly was.

So she immediately nodded obediently, indicating that she definitely wouldn't play around with it carelessly.

But after Peter left, she seemed like a child who had received a new toy, stroking the romantic cannon in her hands and murmuring to herself:

"If I use about one-thousandth of the mental energy I used in the previous attempt, it should be fine, right?"

Then... the sound of "biabiabia~" kept coming from the room.

The female agent responsible for delivering food to the Mantis Woman nearly fainted on the spot when she saw the room's "decoration" style, which was comparable to Syria.

Peter's final stop was a small house in the suburbs of New York, which served as Sif's residence and private training ground.

In the training ground, Sif was intently wiping her longsword.

Sif's sword can be considered a low-level divine artifact.

Although it cannot use any special magic, this sword has the ability to transform.

Normally, it appears to be an ordinary two-handed sword. But by simply turning the hilt, Sif can transform it into two swords, and by bringing the hilts of the two swords together, it can become a long-handled weapon similar to a double-headed spear.

"Although your sword is already great, I still highly recommend that you give it a try."

Peter then handed over a sword wrapped in ornate silk.

"What is this?" Sif stopped what she was doing and looked at the sword.

"Excalibur, the sword of Victory." Peter untied the silk, revealing a magnificent longsword that gleamed with a faint golden light.

"In Earth's legends, this is the holy sword that the King of Knights of Britain possessed after receiving the blessing of the Lady of the Lake."

Sif's breath hitched for a moment. As a battle-hardened Asgardian goddess, she could sense the extraordinary nature of this sword.

This is not some boastful decoration; its value may even be higher than the divine sword in his hand, which was personally bestowed upon him by Odin!

She couldn't help but reach out and grasp the hilt of the sword, which immediately emitted a slight hum, as if responding to its new owner.

"It's beautiful, and it's powerful!" Sif couldn't help but pour some of her divine power into it.

hum~

With a sword cry, visible energy covered the blade. Sif casually swung her hand, and a huge sword aura flew out, leaving the courtyard in a mess!

"My God!" Even Sif was taken aback by the power, and a bright smile appeared on her face like never before.

She couldn't help but throw herself into Peter's arms, exclaiming:

"Thank you, I really like this gift, but..."

At this point, her expression dimmed slightly:

"I can feel that I don't have the sword's 100% approval. I can't even unleash its full power. I'm not worthy of this sword right now."

As she spoke, she prepared to return the curry stick to Peter.

"What are you thinking about!" Peter gently tapped her on the head.

"Practice with me for a while longer, and one day you'll gain its approval!"

Besides, this sword would only gather dust if it stayed with me; it's only in your hands that it can truly shine.

To completely put Severus's mind at ease, Peter first took out his vibranium katana, and then simply took out the Senbonzakura (thousand cherry blossoms) as well:

"You see, I'm not short of weapons~ Besides, when I really need them..."

As he spoke, Peter gestured with his hand.

The curry stick instantly flew back to Peter's hand, as Peter infused it with his magic.

The pillar of light formed by the Excalibur shot into the sky, even startling the people in New York City.

But the beam of light was withdrawn by Peter in less than a second, leading those who witnessed it to doubt that everything they had seen was just an illusion.

"When I need it, it will still shine. This sword will not be buried in our hands, but will instead make a name for itself that is even more famous than its predecessor."

Hearing this, Sif finally let go of her last bit of hesitation, carefully put away the curry stick, and then clung to Peter like an octopus:

"In that case... let me think carefully about how I should respond to this generous gift you've given me~"
