Chapter 87: Peter and MJ

“B-Benjamin Freed!? THAT Benjamin Freed!?”

May exclaimed in shock.

“Well, unless you know other Benjamin Freeds.”

“Oh wow! I didn’t think I’d get to meet you personally!”

Well, your nephew meets me most of the time...but she probably still doesn’t know that Peter’s Spider-man.

Spider-man is one of the few members of the EPD who always keeps his identity.

At first, there were a lot of them but after knowing each other on missions and getting comfortable with the other members, they no longer guard their identity too much.

Only Peter and a few others would always keep their identity a secret.

Benjamin just doesn’t know if he already told someone else or not. Maybe a friend? Does Ned exist here?

Well, I’m pretty sure Gwen knows it.

Considering she’s probably not from this universe...but since she’s been here for a while, it’s safe to say that the setting isn’t like that animated movie where they would glitch if they are in the wrong universe.

Benjamin still has no idea why she’s here but like he told her before. As long as it doesn’t really affect anything, he won’t bother about it.

It would be interesting to visit the multiverse one day though.

Maybe it’s even possible to go to the DC world?

[Host, are you sure about that?]

...Uhh, why are you asking, System? Is something bad going to happen?

[This System is the Ultimate Marvel System. Going to other Marvel worlds is not a big problem. But if you go to something like a DC World, the host of the Ultimate DC System will get notified and things may get complicated.]

...

Benjamin fell into deep thought.

That does sound bad...

Benjamin knew better than anyone how powerful this system could be. And from what the System said, it isn’t a unique existence in the multiverse...so how powerful would the others be?

What if they invade this world?

[Actually, Host does not need to worry too much. They all also have their own considerations. As long as host doesn’t offend them intentionally, there won’t be any problem.]

Well, I sure hope so...

Benjamin sighed.

Anyway, one problem at a time.

“So, do you mind showing me around?”

“Sure! It would be my pleasure!”

May nodded enthusiastically.

...Isn’t she a bit too excited?

Actually, Benjamin doesn’t fully understand his own fame.

Although many had already forgotten what he looked like since he rarely showed himself, the name Benjamin Freed is still a resounding name in the hearts of many people as it could be said that he is someone who signaled a new era.

It’s like...ask anyone what Jesus looks like and they would all give vague descriptions. But they still know the name itself.

...Okay, maybe that comparison is a bit...but you get the point!

While Benjamin follows May around the place, a couple were walking on the streets nearby.

One was a man with short brown hair and the other was a woman with long red hair.

It was none other than Peter Parker and Mary Jane.

“It’s such a shame Harry can’t come with us. Today’s game night!”

“It can’t be helped. You know Harry. It seems his father’s had some problems lately so he’s trying to help.”

MJ shrugged.

Peter sighed.

“Considering how bad his dad’s mood has been, I doubt this would end well...”

“That’s true...”

MJ nodded.

The two of them had long known the love-hate relationship with the Osborns.

Peter stretched his arms and looked around as they walked.

“Anyway...it sure is peaceful nowadays.”

May asked.

Benjamin smiled and nodded.

“It’s pretty impressive considering the limited budget you had before. I’ll increase my donation to 5 million. I trust that you can put it to good use.”

Hearing his confirmation, May’s eyes brightened excitedly.

“That’s great! I promise that I’ll put every cent into good use!”

May promised.

Suddenly, a few kids playing nearby ran past behind May and accidentally pushed her forward, leaning onto Benjamin’s chest.

Benjamin was also surprised and unconsciously caught her by the arms.

As the two locked eyes for a brief moment, Benjamin’s mind retorted.

What is this!? A K-drama or something!?

Knowing how embarrassed May might be, Benjamin was about to gently push her away when suddenly, someone exclaimed beside them.

“AHHH!!!”

Confused, Benjamin and May snapped out of it and looked at the side at the same time.

There, they saw two people.

Benjamin recognized one of them as Peter Parker.

As for the other...that red hair and being beside Peter means it can only be Mary Jane Watson.

At the moment, Peter was pointing at them with his mouth agape in speechlessness.

“Y-you two...”

Benjamin looked at him, then at May. He knew this kid misunderstood them so he quickly stabilized May and took a big step back.

“Ahem, that was-”

“Oh, Peter! You’re here! There’s great news!”

Before Benjamin could explain, May greeted Peter excitedly.

Now, if Benjamin still insists on explaining, it will make him sound too rude...he had completely missed the timing.

Sighing, he just shrugged it off and calmed down.

“A-Aunt May...w-why is h-he....here...?”

“He’s the new donor of FEAST! You know him, right? He’s none other than Benjamin Freed! That one from the EPD! How amazing is that!?”

“R-really amazing...”

Peter forced a smile.

Dammit! Of course, I know him, I’m also a member of the EPD!

MJ saw his expression and nearly laughed out loud.

Smiling, she stepped forward and extended her hand towards Benjamin.

“So you’re the famous Benjamin Freed. You’re indeed as handsome as they say.”

Benjamin smiled wryly as he shook her hand.

“No no, that’s an exaggeration...”

[Host, how come you’re so gullible suddenly? Is MJ also your target? Are you also going to NTR Spider-man?]

System, shut up!

Peter saw the two shook hands and his mind exploded.

Oh no! Why did they have to meet!?

After shaking MJ’s hand, Benjamin suddenly felt a death stare from Peter.

...What is this guy thinking?

Not caring about the mood, May introduced the two.

“This is my nephew, Peter. This one is MJ, Peter’s girlfriend.”

Benjamin nodded. Although he already knew it, he acted as if it was his first meeting with Peter.

“Nice to meet you. I am Benjamin Freed.”

“...Nice to meet you.”

Peter said and shook his hand.

...Umm, Peter? Why are you using super strength? Aren’t you afraid of your cover being blown?

Benjamin smiled wryly again and sighed.

This guy definitely misunderstood and is now hostile to him...
