Do you want to eat Amway? [Comprehensive British and American]
Chapter 46 Illusion
"Uh good."
Before Carl could figure out what was going on, he followed them in a daze and picked up a glass of wine from the table. Everyone clinked glasses with each other, and the atmosphere was warm and cheering.
"We all want to thank you, Carl." Steve said with a grateful smile, a soft gleam in his blue eyes, "You got Bucky back."
The brown-haired man with bun face next to him smiled and nodded.
"Me too." Tony next to him seemed a little embarrassed to say it, but still with an unnatural awkward expression, he raised his arms, hugged Carl hard, and lowered his voice, "Thank you."
"You don't need to say thank you to me." Although Karl hasn't figured out the situation yet, he vaguely knows that the cubs are thanking him for various reasons, which is too extravagant.
"It should be." Loki said without changing his face. As an evil god, he stood among a bunch of superheroes but there was nothing unusual about him, and the others didn't think there was anything wrong.Because they have lived together since childhood, they are used to it.
The evil god with green eyes turned and left, returning to his sister and mother.Seeing him coming back, Sol hurried over.Odin stood relatively far away, and could only look at his elder daughter and younger son guiltily, but there was a satisfied smile on his face.
"Hmm..." Carl looked at the Shenyu family, a little dazed.He vaguely understood, could it be that the future scene was simulated in this illusion? He raised the card cubs and changed every tragedy
But something doesn't seem right
Carl turned his head to look the other way in a daze.Tony, who hugged him just now, was already talking to Howard and Maria, his expression was still awkward, but the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, with a joyful smile.Two familiar blond-haired and blue-eyed youths stood by and watched. They were Jarvis and Ultron.
The ancient mage was chatting with Strange wearing a levitating cloak, Peter Parker and Clark unexpectedly hit it off, and Nick Fury stood silently far away, staring in Odin's direction.
The grown-up cubs came over one by one with wine glasses to thank them. Looking at the narrow smiles on their faces, it seemed that they didn't intend to end the party until they got Carl drunk.
"Cheers!" The gray-haired old man Stan Lee couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He raised his hand and touched Carl, drank it down, and left with a sigh of emotion, leaving the seat to the next person, "Keep improving!" "
"Clint."
Karl greeted the next person who came over, and clinked glasses with him, but he was thinking about the problem just now.
what is wrong
These are all hallucinations, which were transformed to exercise his mind, so lively and happy, could it be to make him indulge in it and be reluctant to leave? Carl felt that if the hallucinations were really like this, the power would be too weak.
"Carl"
Another yell came.As soon as Carl turned his head, Saul jumped into the line and gave him a warm hug from behind.The blond-haired, blue-eyed man smiled foolishly and explained, "We're going back. Thank you for teaching me when I was a child, so I realized what's wrong with me."
"What's the matter with you today, you don't need to be so polite, you have to go back." Carl shook his head helplessly, and was about to correct Big Sol's words, so that he wouldn't be so unfamiliar, when he spoke, his voice suddenly became quieter.
He suddenly realized what was weird.
Yes, it seems that no cub has called him Daddy since just now.
Also, where are Sol and the others going back to God's Domain?
Carl followed Big Sol inexplicably, looked at him with a cold and arrogant face, stood beside Hela and Loki who seemed to be in a concave shape, and tentatively asked "Hela"
"Carl." The woman in a leather jacket with an excellent figure really responded, her voice softened, and she looked over with dark green eyes.This reaction was like that little Hella who knew Karl.
"" Carl's heart sank.
Sure enough, Hela didn't call him dad either. Is this why she also has memories of the Marvel world?
He nodded to Hela indiscriminately, and went to the next person, Gu Yi, in disbelief.Gu Yi has grown up, even though he is more than 600 years old, he is still willing to admit Karl's identity.
"What's the matter?" Mage Gu Yi still had a familiar faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and his demeanor was ethereal and calm. She looked over calmly, and the familiar feeling immediately calmed down the inexplicable panic in Karl's heart.
"Gu Yi, what's going on now?" Carl struggled with his words, "They all seem to be a little weird. Is it because they have memories of another world? They are all called Karl."
"That's it." Fortunately, Gu Yi was able to understand Carl's meaning as always. She nodded, looked at the superheroes who were talking and laughing, with a smile still on the corner of her mouth, and said meaningfully,
"Sol and Loki have reconciled, and the throne of Asgard will be inherited by Odin's eldest daughter, Hela. The oracle Ragnarok has changed, so Odin still has a long time to enjoy his old age. .”
"Really?" Carl hesitated to speak, opened his mouth but didn't know what to ask.
"Steve and Bucky re-rented a house in Brooklyn, Tony was finally able to apologize to his parents, Peter now had his Aunt May and Uncle Ben, and Eric went to Charles for tea at every turn." Without waiting for Carl's response, he spoke on his own.
""
The more Karl listened, the more he didn't know what to say, and finally he could only answer dryly, "Well, they're all doing well."
"That's right." Gu Yi nodded in agreement, and looked at him deeply with his black eyes, "If there is no doubt, I will go back too."
"You too" Karl asked subconsciously, a little surprised.
"Go back to the temple. Although I have retired from the position of supreme mage, Strange will be more relaxed with me there." Gu Yi nodded to him politely, his smile suddenly widened, "Then The child is good at everything, but he is not forgiving, if I don't take care of it, he can offend everyone."
"" Karl watched the figure in the white robe leave far away, and suddenly felt speechless.Something in his throat blocked his voice.
How is this going
There is nothing wrong with cubs growing up and going off to live their own lives.Although I don't know what's weird, Carl seems to think that it really shouldn't be like this.
The cubs stopped calling him daddy and became unfamiliar and polite.Tony has his parents, and Sol, Hella and Loki also have their parents. After restoring the memory of the Marvel world, they happily let go of their misunderstanding and resentment. The family is reunited, and now they have to go back separately.The other cub, Carl, hasn't started raising yet, so there isn't as much affection.But currently these
Is this not recognizing him?
Although Carl felt that he just got the system by accident at the beginning, and started to raise the card cubs, he didn't think there was anything wrong when Big Sol disliked him when their fathers didn't have much confidence.
But people will have a sense of substitution after living for a long time.
Little Sol cried miserably and didn't want to leave him. Little Tony fell in pain and asked him to coax him to stop crying. Little Hila was eager to try and hope to help him. Little Rocky was so happy watching TV with him, and little Steve Husband and Xiao Gu started to do their part in their own way as soon as they kept silent, trying to lighten his burden
Every cub looked at him with dependence and intimacy, and frivolously surrounded him and scrambled to call him "Daddy, Daddy"
However, after they retrieved their memories, they had their real relatives.
So don't let him be a fake dad?
Carl looked at the lively scene around him and felt unable to breathe for a while. He raised his hand and touched his chest, and felt an unbearable tingling pain in his heart.
"Illusion, it's all an illusion." Carl murmured trying to keep himself calm. He still remembered what Gu Yi said, he needed to persevere in the illusion, which was a place to exercise his mind.
But no.
"Oops"
Carl quickly covered his face, but it was still a step too late.Some liquid overflowed from the eye sockets unstoppably, passed through the fingers, and fell to the ground drop by drop.Those tears and turbulent emotions were surging together in pain, and he couldn't control it at all.
This phantom poked at the place he was most afraid of in his heart.
It is precisely because of the incident in Big Sol that the more Carl gets along with the cubs, the more afraid the future will really become like that.Although he tried his best to pretend not to care, Karl was really afraid that the cubs who had recovered their memories would still despise him and alienate him.
The worst part was that these cubs were all drawn from the system, and they had nothing to do with each other, so Carl didn't have any confidence.
This is the reason why he didn't bring other cubs into the dungeon. He didn't dare to see that happen, but he couldn't stop taking care of his favorite cubs because of this, so he didn't dare to think deeply, and immediately buried it deeply. Forget it from the bottom of my heart.
But now in this fantasy
He's redundant, like his worst fear, he's no one's dad.
He is still the original Karl, helpless, rootless, unable to find the meaning of living or dying in the confusion.But this kind of thing does not mean that it can be reversed if it is reversed.
""
Carl bent down deeply, still covering his face, and there was a broken choked sound in his throat.He dared not look around at all.Because Tony was talking to Howard, Loki's tone was pleasant, and those familiar voices got into his ears uncontrollably, turning into small bugs biting his heart, making him almost unable to breathe.
The surrounding hall shook violently, the scene and a character became distorted and shaken, and then shattered.
"calm"
A familiar voice seemed to come from far away, "Calm down Dad"
In the New York Temple.
Gu Yi frowned worriedly, supported the brown-haired young man, and tried to wake him up over and over again.Dad's soul has returned to his body, but he still hasn't woken up, but is immersed in fluctuating emotions, with his head hanging motionless, unable to see his expression clearly, and his state is very bad.
Although mages who experience it for the first time will have violent reactions, it also depends on the state of the individual's mind, and the situation varies.Gu Yi didn't know what Carl had been through, but she felt that Dad's reaction was a bit serious.
"I'm fine." Carl took a deep breath and said, wiped the corners of his eyes, regained control of his body, and removed his strength from Gu Yi's shoulders and arms, "I just need a little time, I'll be fine soon. "
He was a little thankful now that the New York Temple was still a dark house.
"Come here first today, I already understand your level, and I will slowly change the level of magic in the future." Gu Yi's voice was flat and there was concern hidden, "Go back, Dad."
She raised her hand and drew a golden portal in the air, and the scene over there was Karl's bedroom.Little Rocky stood up from the bed vigilantly and stared at this side.
When Gu Yi called out the familiar "Father", Carl trembled slightly, and the emotions that had been suppressed with great difficulty almost surged up again. He lowered his head in response, and then walked through the portal.
"You're back, Dad." Seeing that it wasn't Gu Yi but Karl, the black-haired boy's expression softened from vigilance to happiness, his green eyes stared at Karl expectantly, and asked a little shyly, "Do you want to continue watching TV?" You haven't been away for too long, I can tell you the story in the middle."
"Sorry, we'll watch it together some other day." Carl forced a smile at Little Rocky, and looked up at the balcony.Little Steve was no longer there, the drawing book was closed, and he should have finished today's cartoon and went out to play.
"I'm a little sleepy right now, I want to sleep for a while." Carl said in a disguised manner, lowered his head and hurried back to the bed, wrapping himself in the quilt.He was afraid that if it was a little later, the careful little Rocky would discover his abnormality.Carl wondered if his eye sockets were red.
He needs to take some time to calm himself down.
Carl closed his eyes tightly in the dark, trying to take a deep breath and think.
But at this moment, Carl felt that the sound on the TV suddenly disappeared, and the remote control was placed on the table.After a few seconds of silence, a small opening was opened at the back of the quilt on the other side, and a little cold wind rushed in. Immediately afterwards, a small figure squeezed in and crawled into the quilt slowly. to Carl.
"Dad" Little Rocky asked softly, he groped and stretched out his hand, and found Karl's arm in the dark, which seemed a little wet.The boy groped twice more, and his fingertips touched some strands of hair.
It was Karl curled up in bed.
Unexpectedly, Little Rocky didn't ask anything.He lay down against Carl's arm, stretched out his hand with difficulty and patted Carl's shoulder, as if he knew everything, and whispered clearly in a childish voice, "Let's sleep together, Dad."
Carl covered his eyes, almost bursting into tears from the warmth of Little Rocky's action.No one in the bed moved anymore, little Rocky obediently accompanied him to sleep.Carl gave a vague "um", and let his consciousness slowly sink into the darkness
Carl slept very deeply this time.
Because it was not only emotions that fluctuated greatly in the illusion, but also consumed his soul power.By the time Karl woke up again, it was already midnight.
He pressed his hungry and scratching stomach, lifted the quilt to get out of bed, and went to find something to eat in the refrigerator.
Little Rocky was still sleeping soundly curled up on the other half of the bed, with his head on the side, messy black hair, and a calm and carefree face.
Karl fell asleep, and his mood has completely recovered. Looking at the sleeping posture of the black-haired child, he smiled silently, and then walked out the door lightly.
There were still some eggs in the refrigerator in the kitchen, leftover cold steaks, fish nuggets, lettuce and bread.
Carl shook his head, he was so hungry that he didn't want to pick anything.
Put two slices of bread in the pan and re-fry, coat with steaming eggs, a whole steak sprinkled with black pepper sauce, lettuce and salad dressing.It's hard to tell whether it's a hot dog or a hamburger, and it's out of the oven.
Carl put the fried fish pieces back into the pan to heat up again, poured the milk into the cup to heat up, and a sumptuous supper appeared
"Carl"
Abel held a flashlight in one hand, was wearing pajamas, and stood sleepily at the door of the restaurant.
"Ah, I woke you up." Carl showed an apologetic expression, "I tried to keep my voice down."
"The policeman is a light sleeper, and I wake up if there is any movement." Abel waved his hand, indicating that it was okay for Carl. He came over and pulled a chair and sat down, watching Carl eat silently.
"Aren't you going to sleep? I won't make so much noise when I wash the dishes in a while." Carl asked.
"No, I'm thinking about how to help you increase your popularity as soon as possible. Raising six children is not an easy task." Abel was more thoughtful and took a longer view on this matter.
"I already have a channel to make money, and the current consumption should be able to maintain." Carl thought of the rewards of the daily tasks and said, "If I am famous, I should rely on Steve's comics."
Although it narrates the same work, according to the comments and gradually catching up clicks, Carl found that readers still prefer the comics of Little Steve.The characters he draws are as cute as himself, with an inexplicable sense of cuteness.Even if the plot is that kind of drama.
"Cartoon?" Abel also nodded, thoughtfully.He now knows that the cartoon was originally drawn by Steve Jr. himself.
"In this case, I'll find an old friend to contact the publishing house to see if the comics can be submitted." Abel made a decision.
"Okay." Carl also felt very confident.
In the United States, the distribution channels for comics are fully mature, and the competition is not as scary as novels.Little Steve's drawing is so cute, there should still be a certain chance.
Even if the manga is rejected, it can continue to be published online.
In other words, after the short film "Sol III", should I let little Steve also shoot "Steve One" to promote it together?
Carl thought about it, lowered his head and began to eat bread with big mouthfuls.
In the morning, Uncle Abel went to work. When Carl honestly finished writing today's "Sol One", he went out of the bedroom door to quietly see what the cubs were doing.
He didn't see everyone all morning, and he felt empty in his heart, but Karl deliberately avoided this, because Karl still didn't know how to face them after what happened in the illusion yesterday.
"The king's land doesn't belong to you anymore." Little Haila scolded with a cold face, she raised her hand and pushed the blond child, pushing little Steve almost staggered and sat on the ground.
"Father" Little Rocky immediately exclaimed, went to support little Steve, who was acting as the king temporarily, and turned his head to glare at little Haila, "You are not my sister, you actually want to kill our father!"
"Have you ever seen that the new king will leave the life of the defeated?" Xiao Haila asked back as a matter of course, raising her leg to step on the bench and putting her hands on it, full of momentum, "Besides, has he always looked for me? He has cared about me?" He is your father, not mine"
Her eyes were sharp, and little Steve flinched back.
Little Haila has been acting flawlessly, but when it came to the last half of the sentence, she suddenly became very guilty, stuttered a bit, and her aura weakened visibly to the naked eye.
"Card" Little Tony jumped up dissatisfied, "Sister Hela, why are you suddenly dying?"
"At that time, Dad will play this role. It's not good for me to say such things to him." Xiao Haila turned her head in embarrassment, but she was very straightforward.
Carl peeked at the bedroom door, almost laughing.
He has already forgotten what he was thinking just now, he only knows that Xiao Haila's performance is really real.She was playing herself, so when it came to the part that needed to really "act", Xiao Haila's acting skills were exposed.
"I strongly apply for more lines again." Little Saul raised his hand depressed, "Steve has more lines than me."
"You're just helping to fight, brother Saul," the little director Tony said straight away, "Just swing the hammer behind with an angry face."
Positive solution, incisive and poisonous tongue
Carl couldn't hold it back at all this time, and laughed outright.
"Ah, Dad..." the cubs turned their heads and looked this way when they heard the voice.
Carl's smile suddenly stiffened again ""
"Loki said you were busy, so we didn't bother you, Dad, are you done with your work now?" Little Sol smiled brightly, looking up at him.
"Father" the brown-haired little Douding also cheered a little, stood on the sofa and opened his hands, wanting to be hugged by Karl, his big caramel-colored eyes were full of anticipation.
"" Carl was still a little hesitant, stiff and didn't answer right away.
That illusion impressed him too deeply, and Carl immediately recalled the scene where Tony was very happy talking to Howard.And the Sol family.
"Father, are you okay?" Little Rocky asked in a low voice, raised his hand worriedly and touched the corner of Carl's clothes.
"I'm fine." Carl came back to his senses, bent down and put the small pendant on his neck, then smiled, and answered Sol's words, "I'm done now, what's the matter, do you want to go out and play?"
Gu Yi said that the illusion was to exercise his mind.
Carl warned himself in his heart.
He can't be swallowed by fear in turn, he has to work hard to overcome it.
As long as he treats the cubs well and cultivates relationships with them, the cubs will not no longer recognize him like in the illusion.
Karl hugged the little Tony hanging around his neck, feeling the scent of milk and curly hair, he took a deep breath, closed his eyes and warned himself again.
Little Tony also hugged Carl's neck obediently, let him hold him, and said excitedly, "Dad, I want to eat cheese"
"Ah, the cheese in the cartoon." Little Sol also reacted, his expression suddenly became a little eager, "Dad, I want to eat cheese too when we go to the supermarket."
"And bananas," Steve added.Although he was silent, he also watched a lot of cartoons.
"There are also yogurt cubes." Little Hela hesitated for a moment, then added in a low voice, her expression became a little awkward again, trying to look like a little adult, as if she was embarrassed to show that she also likes watching cartoons.
"Okay, buy everything, go back to the trusteeship room, and I'll take you out." Carl recalled his current daily income, and suddenly said confidently.It happened that he came to his new home, and he hadn't gone out to explore the surrounding environment yet, and he didn't even know where the supermarkets and convenience stores were.
"Everyone go," little Steve asked expectantly.
"Go all, but in order not to be so conspicuous, Loki, can you use illusion magic?" Carl looked expectantly at the black-haired boy.
"Hmm..." little Rocky listened to Carl's suggestion in doubt, and fell into deep thought.
ten minutes later.
A huge team appeared in front of a convenience store across the road from the Norman community.
A young brunette youth and an older tall youth, accompanied by four children.The cubs rushed into the convenience store with laughter and laughter, and cheered to find the food they wanted.
The tall young man couldn't bear it, but in order to take care of his image, he insisted on standing where he was and staring longingly into the distance.
"You go too, Loki." Carl said with a smile.
The current adult image of Loki standing in front of him was conjured by magic, wearing a simple shirt and trousers, with a playful smile, exactly the same as the mischievous god Loki in Carl's memory.
Moreover, the youth's hairline has suddenly become higher, which is very noticeable compared with him in childhood.
Before Carl could figure out what was going on, he followed them in a daze and picked up a glass of wine from the table. Everyone clinked glasses with each other, and the atmosphere was warm and cheering.
"We all want to thank you, Carl." Steve said with a grateful smile, a soft gleam in his blue eyes, "You got Bucky back."
The brown-haired man with bun face next to him smiled and nodded.
"Me too." Tony next to him seemed a little embarrassed to say it, but still with an unnatural awkward expression, he raised his arms, hugged Carl hard, and lowered his voice, "Thank you."
"You don't need to say thank you to me." Although Karl hasn't figured out the situation yet, he vaguely knows that the cubs are thanking him for various reasons, which is too extravagant.
"It should be." Loki said without changing his face. As an evil god, he stood among a bunch of superheroes but there was nothing unusual about him, and the others didn't think there was anything wrong.Because they have lived together since childhood, they are used to it.
The evil god with green eyes turned and left, returning to his sister and mother.Seeing him coming back, Sol hurried over.Odin stood relatively far away, and could only look at his elder daughter and younger son guiltily, but there was a satisfied smile on his face.

You haven't been away for too long, I can tell you the story in the middle."
"Sorry, we'll watch it together some other day." Carl forced a smile at Little Rocky, and looked up at the balcony.Little Steve was no longer there, the drawing book was closed, and he should have finished today's cartoon and went out to play.
"I'm a little sleepy right now, I want to sleep for a while." Carl said in a disguised manner, lowered his head and hurried back to the bed, wrapping himself in the quilt.He was afraid that if it was a little later, the careful little Rocky would discover his abnormality.Carl wondered if his eye sockets were red.
He needs to take some time to calm himself down.
Carl closed his eyes tightly in the dark, trying to take a deep breath and think.
But at this moment, Carl felt that the sound on the TV suddenly disappeared, and the remote control was placed on the table.After a few seconds of silence, a small opening was opened at the back of the quilt on the other side, and a little cold wind rushed in. Immediately afterwards, a small figure squeezed in and crawled into the quilt slowly. to Carl.
"Dad" Little Rocky asked softly, he groped and stretched out his hand, and found Karl's arm in the dark, which seemed a little wet.The boy groped twice more, and his fingertips touched some strands of hair.
It was Karl curled up in bed.
Unexpectedly, Little Rocky didn't ask anything.He lay down against Carl's arm, stretched out his hand with difficulty and patted Carl's shoulder, as if he knew everything, and whispered clearly in a childish voice, "Let's sleep together, Dad."
Carl covered his eyes, almost bursting into tears from the warmth of Little Rocky's action.No one in the bed moved anymore, little Rocky obediently accompanied him to sleep.Carl gave a vague "um", and let his consciousness slowly sink into the darkness
Carl slept very deeply this time.
Because it was not only emotions that fluctuated greatly in the illusion, but also consumed his soul power.By the time Karl woke up again, it was already midnight.
He pressed his hungry and scratching stomach, lifted the quilt to get out of bed, and went to find something to eat in the refrigerator.
Little Rocky was still sleeping soundly curled up on the other half of the bed, with his head on the side, messy black hair, and a calm and carefree face.
Karl fell asleep, and his mood has completely recovered. Looking at the sleeping posture of the black-haired child, he smiled silently, and then walked out the door lightly.
There were still some eggs in the refrigerator in the kitchen, leftover cold steaks, fish nuggets, lettuce and bread.
Carl shook his head, he was so hungry that he didn't want to pick anything.
Put two slices of bread in the pan and re-fry, coat with steaming eggs, a whole steak sprinkled with black pepper sauce, lettuce and salad dressing.It's hard to tell whether it's a hot dog or a hamburger, and it's out of the oven.
Carl put the fried fish pieces back into the pan to heat up again, poured the milk into the cup to heat up, and a sumptuous supper appeared
"Carl"
Abel held a flashlight in one hand, was wearing pajamas, and stood sleepily at the door of the restaurant.
"Ah, I woke you up." Carl showed an apologetic expression, "I tried to keep my voice down."
"The policeman is a light sleeper, and I wake up if there is any movement." Abel waved his hand, indicating that it was okay for Carl. He came over and pulled a chair and sat down, watching Carl eat silently.
"Aren't you going to sleep? I won't make so much noise when I wash the dishes in a while." Carl asked.
"No, I'm thinking about how to help you increase your popularity as soon as possible. Raising six children is not an easy task." Abel was more thoughtful and took a longer view on this matter.
"I already have a channel to make money, and the current consumption should be able to maintain." Carl thought of the rewards of the daily tasks and said, "If I am famous, I should rely on Steve's comics."
Although it narrates the same work, according to the comments and gradually catching up clicks, Carl found that readers still prefer the comics of Little Steve.The characters he draws are as cute as himself, with an inexplicable sense of cuteness.Even if the plot is that kind of drama.
"Cartoon?" Abel also nodded, thoughtfully.He now knows that the cartoon was originally drawn by Steve Jr. himself.
"In this case, I'll find an old friend to contact the publishing house to see if the comics can be submitted." Abel made a decision.
"Okay." Carl also felt very confident.
In the United States, the distribution channels for comics are fully mature, and the competition is not as scary as novels.Little Steve's drawing is so cute, there should still be a certain chance.
Even if the manga is rejected, it can continue to be published online.
In other words, after the short film "Sol III", should I let little Steve also shoot "Steve One" to promote it together?
Carl thought about it, lowered his head and began to eat bread with big mouthfuls.
In the morning, Uncle Abel went to work. When Carl honestly finished writing today's "Sol One", he went out of the bedroom door to quietly see what the cubs were doing.
He didn't see everyone all morning, and he felt empty in his heart, but Karl deliberately avoided this, because Karl still didn't know how to face them after what happened in the illusion yesterday.
"The king's land doesn't belong to you anymore." Little Haila scolded with a cold face, she raised her hand and pushed the blond child, pushing little Steve almost staggered and sat on the ground.
"Father" Little Rocky immediately exclaimed, went to support little Steve, who was acting as the king temporarily, and turned his head to glare at little Haila, "You are not my sister, you actually want to kill our father!"
"Have you ever seen that the new king will leave the life of the defeated?" Xiao Haila asked back as a matter of course, raising her leg to step on the bench and putting her hands on it, full of momentum, "Besides, has he always looked for me? He has cared about me?" He is your father, not mine"
Her eyes were sharp, and little Steve flinched back.
Little Haila has been acting flawlessly, but when it came to the last half of the sentence, she suddenly became very guilty, stuttered a bit, and her aura weakened visibly to the naked eye.
"Card" Little Tony jumped up dissatisfied, "Sister Hela, why are you suddenly dying?"
"At that time, Dad will play this role. It's not good for me to say such things to him." Xiao Haila turned her head in embarrassment, but she was very straightforward.
Carl peeked at the bedroom door, almost laughing.
He has already forgotten what he was thinking just now, he only knows that Xiao Haila's performance is really real.She was playing herself, so when it came to the part that needed to really "act", Xiao Haila's acting skills were exposed.
"I strongly apply for more lines again." Little Saul raised his hand depressed, "Steve has more lines than me."
"You're just helping to fight, brother Saul," the little director Tony said straight away, "Just swing the hammer behind with an angry face."
Positive solution, incisive and poisonous tongue
Carl couldn't hold it back at all this time, and laughed outright.
"Ah, Dad..." the cubs turned their heads and looked this way when they heard the voice.
Carl's smile suddenly stiffened again ""
"Loki said you were busy, so we didn't bother you, Dad, are you done with your work now?" Little Sol smiled brightly, looking up at him.
"Father" the brown-haired little Douding also cheered a little, stood on the sofa and opened his hands, wanting to be hugged by Karl, his big caramel-colored eyes were full of anticipation.
"" Carl was still a little hesitant, stiff and didn't answer right away.
That illusion impressed him too deeply, and Carl immediately recalled the scene where Tony was very happy talking to Howard.And the Sol family.
"Father, are you okay?" Little Rocky asked in a low voice, raised his hand worriedly and touched the corner of Carl's clothes.
"I'm fine." Carl came back to his senses, bent down and put the small pendant on his neck, then smiled, and answered Sol's words, "I'm done now, what's the matter, do you want to go out and play?"
Gu Yi said that the illusion was to exercise his mind.
Carl warned himself in his heart.
He can't be swallowed by fear in turn, he has to work hard to overcome it.
As long as he treats the cubs well and cultivates relationships with them, the cubs will not no longer recognize him like in the illusion.
Karl hugged the little Tony hanging around his neck, feeling the scent of milk and curly hair, he took a deep breath, closed his eyes and warned himself again.
Little Tony also hugged Carl's neck obediently, let him hold him, and said excitedly, "Dad, I want to eat cheese"
"Ah, the cheese in the cartoon." Little Sol also reacted, his expression suddenly became a little eager, "Dad, I want to eat cheese too when we go to the supermarket."
"And bananas," Steve added.Although he was silent, he also watched a lot of cartoons.
"There are also yogurt cubes." Little Hela hesitated for a moment, then added in a low voice, her expression became a little awkward again, trying to look like a little adult, as if she was embarrassed to show that she also likes watching cartoons.
"Okay, buy everything, go back to the trusteeship room, and I'll take you out." Carl recalled his current daily income, and suddenly said confidently.It happened that he came to his new home, and he hadn't gone out to explore the surrounding environment yet, and he didn't even know where the supermarkets and convenience stores were.
"Everyone go," little Steve asked expectantly.
"Go all, but in order not to be so conspicuous, Loki, can you use illusion magic?" Carl looked expectantly at the black-haired boy.
"Hmm..." little Rocky listened to Carl's suggestion in doubt, and fell into deep thought.
ten minutes later.
A huge team appeared in front of a convenience store across the road from the Norman community.
A young brunette youth and an older tall youth, accompanied by four children.The cubs rushed into the convenience store with laughter and laughter, and cheered to find the food they wanted.
The tall young man couldn't bear it, but in order to take care of his image, he insisted on standing where he was and staring longingly into the distance.
"You go too, Loki." Carl said with a smile.
The current adult image of Loki standing in front of him was conjured by magic, wearing a simple shirt and trousers, with a playful smile, exactly the same as the mischievous god Loki in Carl's memory.
Moreover, the youth's hairline has suddenly become higher, which is very noticeable compared with him in childhood.
