Chapter 12: Chance Meeting in the Mall

“So you’re telling me, you had Jessica Jones under custody...and you just let her go?”

Captain Holt frowned as he looked at Benjamin who had given his report to him in the office.

“Err well...it felt like she’s needed more inside the abandoned factory. If I had arrested her, things might’ve ended differently.”

“Sigh, forget it. It’s good enough that you were able to survive after what happened. However, know that those so-called heroes that aren’t part of the Avengers or SHIELD are all vigilantes. They are criminals. Understood?”

Thanks to Tony Stark’s connections and SHIELD’s backing, the Avengers are more or less certified to arrest and subdue criminals so the police are able to ignore them. Of course, these people mainly put their attention on the bigger-than-man type of situations and are rarely involved in gangs and petty criminals unless it’s a special case.

But for vigilantes like the Defenders or Spiderman who aren’t a part of them, they aren’t recognized by the law and are considered criminals as well.

Benjamin felt his head hurt at the complicated relationships between the forces in this world.

Still, Benjamin nodded.

“Understood.”

Well, it’s not like he’ll care about it.

When the time comes, he can just say that they got away from him or something.

“Alright, you are dismissed.”

“Thank you.”

Benjamin nodded and left the office.

Outside, Jake quickly tackled him with an arm around his shoulder.

“Dude! I heard what just happened! You actually took down Hammerhead!”

“It was just luck.”

“No way man! I’m telling you. You should start thinking of a superhero name now!”

“...”

Benjamin was speechless.

Rosa approached them.

“Hey. We’re gonna go grab some drinks. Wanna come?”

“Sure.”

Benjamin nodded and texted Natasha who might be waiting for him.

[“Hey. Gonna go drink with my colleagues. Don’t wait up.”]

[“OK. I saw the news. Were you hurt?”]

[“Nope. Not a scratch.”]

[“That’s good. See you tomorrow then.”]

[“Hm? Why tomorrow?”]

[“Just in case you hook up with a female officer and bang her all night.”]

[“...”]

Benjamin chuckled and shook his head.

What are the odds of that happening?

A few hours later.

“Ah~! Yes! Fuck! So good~!”

“Ahhh! I-it’s too big~!”

Inside a hotel room, three figures could be seen engaging in a battle on top of a bed. One man, and two women.

The man was naturally Benjamin.

As for the two women...

Benjamin looked below him and saw two naked bodies covered in sweat and cum. They were Amy and Rosa.

How did this happen?

Well, it all started when they went out to drink.

Jake had a bit too much fun and got wasted so Charles carried him home.

Terry got a call from his wife and also left early.

This left Benjamin, Amy, and Rosa alone. for new novels

...Of course, Hitchcock and Scully were ignored.

As the three drank, the atmosphere got a bit ambiguous. Rosa being frank and straightforward immediately suggested to go and fuck.

Not wanting to be left out, Amy followed as well which resulted in the current situation.

“Amy! You’re so tight!”

“Ahh~! No~! It’s just that yours is too big!!!”

“Enough with Amy! Give me your dick!”

“Ah! Rosa! No!”

Like that, Benjamin alternated with Rosa and Amy. When his dick isn’t inside one, he would use his fingers or his mouth to compensate to satisfy the other.

The three of them tried out various threesome positions all night long before the two finally couldn’t handle it and collapsed on the bed.

Benjamin was a bit satisfied as well but his dick was still hard.

Rosa looked at it and cursed.

“Damn, are you a monster?”

“Haha...I just have more stamina than normal...”

“Is that like, your superpower or something?”

“It’s not!”

It’s not...right?

Benjamin sighed and looked at his side quest.

[Side Quest: Create a Harem in the Marvel World!]

[Harem Points: 12/100]

So the two of them only added a point each...is it because they aren’t recognized as Marvel characters?

Beside him, Amy covered her face.

She had finally calmed down enough to rationally think of what just happened.

“Ugh...I can’t believe I just did a threesome with Rosa and Ben!”

“Shut up Amy, this is the best night I’ve ever had. You were also the one who moaned the loudest. Just enjoy it.”

Rosa scowled.

Amy blushed and thought for a moment.

“...You’re right.”

Benjamin smiled and embraced the two.

“Alright. Don’t fight. You two are already tired. Just sleep.”

Although he said that, they were only able to sleep for an hour or so as they needed to go to work again.

Rosa and Amy left first, leaving Benjamin some alone time.

It was time to pull the gacha!

Since he had two free chances, he was looking forward to it a bit.

The gacha began to roll!

Roll...roll...roll...

Green!

From lowest to highest rarity, the gacha colors were White, Blue, Green, Red, then Gold.

The green-colored gacha is right at the middle. It should be pretty good.

“Girlfriend then?”

“Well, I guess? What’s this about?”

“Do you argue a lot?”

Benjamin seemed to understand a bit why she was asking and chuckled.

“I don’t think you can use me as a reference. Our relationship is a bit...weird? But no, we don’t really argue. At best, it’s about which food to eat or what movie to watch.”

The blonde woman nodded.

“Is she with you today?”

“No, she’s working.”

“On a Saturday? You’re okay with that?”

“Yeah.”

The blonde woman sighed.

“Sigh. You see, my...fiance. He is a bit of a science freak. I’m just worried that he spends most of his time on his research than me...am I selfish?”

“It’s not selfish at all. Since you two are engaged, he should show some proper attention and appreciation to you as much as you show your understanding to him. You can’t be the only one who keeps adjusting in the relationship. Otherwise, your life would just worsen as time pass.”

Benjamin shook his head.

The blonde woman smiled.

“How did you have a good relationship with your girlfriend?”

“Umm, like I said, you can’t really use me as a reference since our situation is a bit weird...”

“How so?”

“Well, she allows me to sleep with other women as long as no feelings are involved. She even wanted to do a threesome and said she’d find someone...honestly, I’m a bit worried. I don’t know if our relationship is a serious one or not.”

Benjamin sighed.

Although he does like harem, it was easier said than done. In the end, his mind was still accustomed to monogamy so he was unsure how to feel about his relationship with Natasha and the other girls he slept with.

It felt like he was somewhat of a hypocrite and wondered if this was really alright.

Well, he still ends up sleeping with other women when the time comes. He can only blame his own dick for thinking for him.

As expected, the blonde woman was speechless.

“That works?”

“I know right?”

Benjamin just shrugged.

Forget it. It was better to just go with the flow.

“Anyway, every couple out there has their own weird situations. You’re not alone.”

She smiled wryly and stretched her hand forward.

“Thanks, I guess. I’m Susan by the way. Susan Storm. Sorry if I ranted off to you for a bit there. I just needed to get it out of my system.”

“Benjamin Freed. It’s fine. Happy to help. If you need someone to talk to again, you can find me at the 99th Precinct. I’m a Detective.”

“I see...you’re not inviting me to join you in that threesome right?”

“What? No no! I’m not!”

“Haha! I was just joking!”

Susan laughed seeing his reaction and waved.

“Thanks for the talk detective. See you.”

“...”

Benjamin sighed as he watched her back leave his view.

Susan Storm...Susan Storm...where have I...

AH!!!

The Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four!

Then, the one she was calling just now...was Reed Richards?

Holy shit! I can’t believe I didn’t notice her name until now...

It's not like I use the HUD Contacts everywhere every time too.

Benjamin broke into a cold sweat.

He didn’t think he would meet her here at all...

But from the looks of things, it seems Reed is preparing to go to space soon?

From what Benjamin could recall, Reed would soon take Susan, her brother Johnny, and Ben Grimm, into outer space and get hit by a cosmic storm, causing them to gain powers.

Benjamin sighed.

Well, whatever happens, will happen. There was no reason for him to stop it.

Benjamin finished up his groceries and went to the cashier to pay.

At the same time, Susan also finished and they happened to meet each other again.

Benjamin pretended to have seen her after so long.

“Wow, long time no see. How are you?”

“Haha, quit it!”

Susan laughed.

They both checked out and had a few bags on their carts now.

“Are you going home now, detective?”

“You can just call me Ben. And no, I’m thinking of eating somewhere. You?”

“I can’t call you Ben, I have a close friend named Ben too. It will just be weird for me.”

Benjamin nodded.

Susan seemed to be in deep thought and finally decided.

“Where are you going to eat? Mind if I join?”

“Are you sure?”

“It’s fine. Maybe if Reed finds out, he would start paying attention to me more. Hmph!”

Benjamin felt a bit weird.

Why does this...sound like a plot for one of those adult videos...?

He quickly shook his head to get rid of such thoughts and stopped thinking about them.

“I’ll treat you to lunch then. We shall dine in the finest of restaurants! The McDonald’s!”

“Pft-! Hahaha! That will do! Shall we then?”

Susan laughed again and even invited him to hook arms.

Benjamin knew she was just being playful so he hooked arms with her without any other thoughts.

After storing their groceries in the luggage counters for a while, the two left and went to a McDonald's chain in the mall to eat lunch.

Benjamin inviting her to eat here was just out of consideration for her.

At least since it isn’t a fancy restaurant, she wouldn’t be misunderstood too much.

It would be easier to play the friend card if they were seen eating in a fast food chain instead.

Although Benjamin does think she’s attractive, he didn’t really want to be a homewrecker after all.

[Why does this System not believe you host?]

Quiet you!

Benjamin naturally ignored the third wheel in his mind and just ate with Susan while chatting about various things.

-----------------

Note: Regarding Amy and Rosa, currently, they are just a fling and not an actual harem member. But they are counted anyway in the quest. MC will have other flings with extra characters in the future too. Be it one-night-stands or sex friends or just casual relationships.

Also, Benjamin's old world didn't have Brooklyn 99 show so naturally, Benjamin didn't know that Amy would end up with Jake in that show. I don't think this counts as NTR...

I also have other plans for Jake which you'll see in 7 or 8 more chapters.
