Chapter 20 - I am Spider Tobey

Parker Mansion – June 2002

Yawn Stretch Huh? Oh?! Hello! Sorry for the delay, I just woke up.

My name is Peter Parker, and I’m currently 17 years old.

I lost my protection this year, but with me dominating the world and keeping things in order, crime has become a rare sight. So far, not even my protagonist aura has managed to bring trouble to me or my family.

My life has remained the same—just better. Since the girls and I turned 17, we officially started living together. Of course, it was authorized by the parents—after all, even without permission, we were already living together. In the end, they just gave up, hehe.

Of course, I had to face four furious fathers and two enraged mothers. M.J.'s dad doesn’t count, but he had to pretend for the sake of his wife… Even though it was my order, I still consider him a traitor.

After a lot of persuasion and promises to be responsible, I won custody of the kids… cough cough I mean, I got permission for the girls to live with me.

Today is our graduation day, and right now, I’m lying in bed alone. The girls got up to get ready. Since all I need to do is take a shower and put on my clothes, 40 minutes should be enough for me to be ready.

But I’ll only do that in about five hours—after all, it’s 11:00 AM, and the graduation ceremony is at 4:30 PM.

Yes, the girls are getting ready five hours in advance.

While lying down, I thought about them.

M.J., after years of studying and training to be a singer under my guidance, is simply incredible with her vocal mastery. And after reaching the human peak with my equipment and supplements, she is just perfect.

But a voice means nothing without a song. Luckily, M.J. is never short on songs—after all, I, a reincarnator, am her patron.

So, after we graduate and settle down for a bit, M.J. will start her career. And I’ll help by putting her on a stage worthy of her brilliance.

I’m not worried about her going on tour because I have a teleportation method. She’ll never be far away.

As for Ursula, she loves cooking. I’ve been training her since she was little, ever since she told me her dream.

With the AI chip, it was easy for me to become a super chef. The problem was teaching, but fortunately, Ursula was naturally talented in the field. After a long time of teaching, she improved in leaps and bounds.

Then Ursula started using the teleportation portal a lot to challenge chefs around the world, and it was easy to find the best ones using HEIMDALL.

Ursula kept surpassing herself time after time, and her food is probably the best in the world right now.

She plans to open a small restaurant in New York, hire some staff, and make people happy with her food.

Gwen, on the other hand, has always loved science, especially when it comes to biology, so I’ve always been teaching her. She started doing amazing things with that knowledge. She even helped Oscorp grow significantly by creating miraculous medicines and selling the formulas to them.

In exchange, she made Norman agree to dedicate a large part of the profits from her creations to helping people around the world.

Norman gladly accepted. Not only does it boost the sales of other medicines, but it also strengthens people’s trust in the company. Philanthropy is great for public image. As a result, the company’s stocks have skyrocketed.

Norman is a very happy man these days. He took his company to a level he never imagined, gained superpowers, and can live much longer than he ever expected—all thanks to his son-in-law.

And on top of that, he remarried a woman he loves—his secretary, Rose.

Unfortunately, he received some bad news. Emily didn’t want to inherit the company.

But then came some good news—Rose was pregnant, and their future son would be named Harry.

Looks like Harry decided to show up anyway, haha.

Gwen decided that her dream is to cure all existing diseases.

I could already do that, but I let Gwen find her own path.

Even though I feel a little guilty for having the cure and not sharing it, I decided to do this as a mental exercise.

There are infinite worlds out there, with infinite injustices and infinite tragic stories. I can’t save everyone.

And even if I can save those within my reach, I can’t carry this world on my back. My intuition tells me that I’d do more harm than good. I’ve done enough—if I do more, this world might forget how to walk on its own…

Okay, I admit it—those I saw as good people, I secretly cured them. Especially children—I have a soft spot for them.

In fact, because of this, Christianity has grown, since most of the people who were cured happened to be Christians.

I didn’t really care much—I wasn’t going to show up just to deny someone’s faith and take the credit.

In fact, I never wanted the credit. I just didn’t want to sleep with a guilty conscience.

And besides, I was a Christian in my past life, and I still go to church with Aunt May, but that’s beside the point.

But enough of that.

Now, about Emily. She doesn’t have many plans, but she wants to dedicate herself to a hero career.

She’s an adventurous girl and wants to explore the world on her own terms.

So she decided that during the day, she would explore the world as her hero persona, helping anyone who needed it. Otherwise, she’d just continue exploring.

At night, she’d return home to be with her love and her sisters.

As for me, I don’t have many plans.

Just waking up late, doing research, and enjoying the night with a good show or book.

Of course, that’s when I’m not flirting or doing… more intimate things with the girls.
