Chapter 25 - I am Spider Tobey

"Hey Tony, where's Pepper?" M.J. asked.

"Pepper is dealing with that big, scary monster called paperwork. Bah, I don’t get why she doesn’t just let J.A.R.V.I.S handle everything. She says it needs a human touch. Women..." Tony started complaining but quickly fell silent as he was stared down by four women who could easily beat him up.

"Women... always so responsible and intelligent, ha ha hah," Tony finished his previous sentence with a nervous laugh, sweating coldly. Tony isn’t a shy guy, but he knows who he should and shouldn’t offend. I can only tip my hat to his perceptiveness.

An interesting fact: J.A.R.V.I.S was programmed by Tony himself. In fact, everything was done by Tony, even his own armor. I only made Tony with his backstory and super-overpowered intelligence… Hehe, I admit I made Tony a bit OP in terms of intelligence—after all, my creation can’t lose to the original.

I also made Pepper for Tony, just like I made Lois Lane for Clark. For all characters with families, I created their families as well.

Interesting fact: There were already Superman comics in this universe, which was strange since this is Marvel, but the story was about a different Super-Man. He wasn’t an alien, just a human with super strength.

As we talked, people inside and around the diner started getting excited upon seeing Iron Man in person.

But soon, guards appeared, controlling the crowd to prevent chaos.

"Eh, why does a diner have guards?" Gwen asked, confused.

"Well, I love the cheeseburgers here, but every time I show up, it causes a commotion, so I hired guards to watch over the place. This way, the diner gets publicity with my image, protection from my guards, and I get a delicious cheeseburger anytime I want." Tony said as he raised his hand, which was soon met by a bag with two cheeseburgers handed over by a staff member whose eyes sparkled with admiration.

"Alright, you kids go on with your young people stuff while I enjoy these beauties," Tony said, and in the next moment, he was covered by his armor and flew away.

Then Emily leaned into my ear and whispered:

"How does it feel that your creation has more style than you?" she whispered with a teasing smile.

"Hey, he's not cooler than me, I'm just discreet," I replied with an annoyed face. Of course, we were just joking—after all, there’s no way Tony is cooler than me… pfft, no chance.

After messing around a bit more with the girls, I got their attention and asked:

"So, now that we've graduated, besides chasing your dreams, in your free time, what are we going to do?" I asked with a smile, curious about their decision.

"""We're going to explore the world of pirates/mythical beasts/angels/dragons.""" Emily, Gwen, Ursula, and M.J. answered together.

Emily wanted to go to the world of pirates, a world I created based on One Piece.

Gwen wanted to visit the world of mythical beasts, a world I made populated with various mythical creatures, from nine-tailed foxes to Egyptian gods with animal themes.

The world of angels was Ursula's choice—there’s not much need for explanation. I made angels! Each one does their own thing, just like common citizens on Earth, but they also tend to find good people on Earth and guard them. Hehe, finally, being a good person actually means something on Earth besides getting stabbed in the back.

And lastly, the world M.J. chose was the world of dragons. It’s a world I filled with all kinds of dragons, from Night Furies to continent-sized dragons. Of course, I had to find an enormous planet for them to live on. M.J. wanted to see this world, especially after meeting a Night Fury I named Toothless. She instantly fell in love with the cute and good-humored dragon.

I also created many other worlds—sometimes, I’m just scrolling through my phone and get inspiration for a new world, and then, a day later, there's a new planet and civilization in the universe.

Interesting fact: I haven't found any actual aliens in this universe. I don’t know whether to feel happy or disappointed, but… meh.

Soon, the girls started arguing about which place was better to visit. Before the discussion could drag on too long, I decided to interrupt.

"Alright, we have plenty of time—we can visit one every weekend. Let's roll these dice to decide the order of who picks first," I said and had the nanobots form two dice.

We rolled seven times since Ursula and Emily tied and had to do a tiebreaker round.

The final order was:

• Dragons.

• Cybertron (which I chose, hehe).

• Angels.

• Pirates.

• Mythical Beasts.

Gwen ended up last because Emily and Ursula tied with a higher number.

As I hugged a pouting Gwen, upset about losing, we started laughing and making plans for what we’d do in the other worlds.

And just like that, five years passed.
