Alexander again took the book out and opened the first page. But to his surprise, not much changed. Only the mind attack disappeared but everything else was the same. The book gave the same dark aura.
He hypothesized that the book must be like a living entity. For example, you can not purify a Hell Demon to become good as he was born that way. The book must be the same. It's initial nature while its creation was dark. The evil energy left in the book by Chthon was the only thing that got purified.
He started looking into it and sure enough, there wasn't much but dark magic. Though he could use a lot of them for good too. Like there was a way to summon Chthon himself and also a way to trap someone in the book.
~Hmm... This might be useful in the future.~ he thought.
He called Fury, "I've taken the book. It is indeed Darkhold. Good thing we found it before anyone else. I will keep it with me. Normal humans cannot ward off its corruption."
"Good thing then. I will put its details in the top-secret category." Fury said.
Alexander agreed and hung up.

Russia
Leonidas was having an awkward lunch with Natasha's small fake family. It was just her fake dad who was in no way related to her. Natasha was an orphan and ended up in the red room. After Alexander had saved her and trained her, she returned to Russia for a while.
Due to her being a pretty good assassin she was immediately put on missions, she was given a fake family as a cover. They acted on missions together for a while and got a bit closer. But then Soviet Russia started demanding that she give them some other services too. So she killed their general and left, then became a freelancer and soon enough joined SHIELD.
"So, you two are a couple? I didn't know you liked cute boys. I thought you'd look for a man." Alexi Shosttakov aka Red Guardian said to Natasha.
Leonidas just rolled his eyes and kept on eating. But Natasha defended, "You should know, if he wants he can destroy this house with a flick of his finger.
"Oh really, then why does he need you to defend? He's a child, Nat." He taunted him.
Leo just waved his hand and Alexi's body flew up and got stuck to the ceiling.
"I told you not to mess," Natasha shrugged and ate her food.
"Hahaha... Good lad. You have mystic powers ha. You chose a good man, Nat. Now let me down." He laughingly praised.
Suddenly the magic disappeared and he fell down on the floor face first. But he just stood up while laughing as if nothing happened.
"You know, my father won't let you go now. A Celestial made glass won't be able to stop him." Leonidas warned him.
"Hahaha... maybe that's true. But how are you going to contact him? Your Psyonic powers won't work in there." Druig replied and went to the testing table to prepare for his experiment.
Seeing that Druig wasn't looking, Leonidas smirked and sent his Patronus to his father.

Polaris (now known as Serbia)
The Eternals had a city there. The Prime Eternal, the leader of the Eternals and the one who could summon a uni-mind ruled the city. His name was Ikaris.
"Prime Eternal, we have completed the new city of Olympia. We can move there now." Another Eternal informed him. There weren't many Eternals to begin with. Only 1000 or so. That was the number Celestials had decided to make.
"Tell all the Eternals, it's time to go. Any news about Druig?" He asked. Druig was Ikaris's stepbrother.
"Yes, he is still scheming things. Recently he has abducted Leonidas Maxim Universe, the son of that pretense God." He informed.
Ikaris suddenly stood up and his eyes widened, "You fool. How long has it been since he abducted him?"
"Just an hour, Prime Eternal." The Eternal replied.
Ikaris was thousands of years old and had met many gods. He had also felt the presence of a new higher being on earth many years ago. He had secretly confirmed it as well. He didn't know who Alexander really was but he just knew that he shouldn't mess with him. The Aura of Alexander was even more dangerous than Celestials he had seen in his life.
"Tell the fighting team to get ready. We need to go out and stop Druig before he makes the biggest mistake of his life and dooms us all." He ordered and wore his armor.
