American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Unfortunately, it hasn't been long since Chu Xiu's accident.

The opportunity for him to be a hero and save the beauty disappeared in an instant.

Only the sound of fists and feet colliding could be heard in the alley.

Afterwards, Gwen came out with her backpack as if nothing had happened.

"Hmph~"

"I warned you."

Gwen had a smile on her face.

A look that said, "I'm amazing. Who told you to offend me?"

Then she turned her head.

And saw Chu Xiu standing behind her with a strange expression.

"Chu Xiu?"

"What are you doing here?"

Gwen was startled.

She quickly adjusted her clothes and tried to look like a good girl.

"I live nearby," Chu Xiu said.

He glanced into the alley.

The two hooligans were lying on the ground in a mess, sleeping soundly.

"Um, Chu Xiu, let me explain. Things aren't as you saw..." Gwen wanted to explain.

But Chu Xiu's words exploded in her ears like thunder.

"Gwen, you've gained super abilities?"

"How did you know?" Gwen instinctively asked.

Then she immediately started babbling and explaining.

"No, no, I haven't. Um, that, I'm... I'm sorry, I should go."

Gwen turned to leave.

But Chu Xiu grabbed her wrist.

"Sorry, Chu Xiu, I really have to go," Gwen said, trying to break free.

But she found that she couldn't pull her wrist out of Chu Xiu's hand.

"Wait..." Gwen realized something was wrong.

She had tested before and could bend a steel pipe with her bare hands.

But now she couldn't break free from Chu Xiu's grip with just one hand.

"You!" Gwen realized something.

She looked up in shock.

"Yes, it's just as you thought," Chu Xiu nodded.

"So you were bitten by a spider too?"

"..."

"You're a demon hunter!?" On the way back.

Gwen's face was full of shock.

"I still have your illustrations on my computer!"

"Well, it's just what you look like after becoming a demon. To be honest... it's a bit scary," Gwen leaned closer to Chu Xiu.

As if trying to see the shadow of a demon through his appearance.

But obviously, she couldn't see anything.

"When were you bitten?" Chu Xiu pressed Gwen's head down with one hand.

"It was a few days ago."

"The school organized a visit to Osborn Industries' laboratory."

"The spot was originally Peter's, but then..." Gwen turned to look at Chu Xiu and continued.

"After the second New York battle happened, Peter and his family were evacuated, so he gave me his spot."

Listening to Gwen's explanation.

Chu Xiu noticed the key point.

"You mean, you didn't originally have this spot?"

"Peter gave you his spot?"

"Yes," Gwen nodded.

Chu Xiu felt a little numb. He had underestimated the butterfly effect.

From Gwen's story, it was clear that in a normal timeline, there should only be one Spider-Man in this world, Peter Parker. Gwen couldn't become Spider-Woman.

But now, Peter Parker had clearly missed the opportunity to become Spider-Man.

"Then just be an ordinary person."

"At least your uncle shouldn't die."

Although Chu Xiu felt a bit regretful about the disappearance of Little Spider-Man.

He also felt that it might be a good thing.

Because no matter which version of Peter Parker, once he became Spider-Man, his uncle would have to die, hence the saying "Uncle sacrifices, boundless power."

"By the way, why are you going to Queens? Are you looking for Peter Parker?"

"Mm."

Gwen nodded.

Then, with a sly smile, she patted the small backpack on her back and said,

"Hehe, while he's away, the school has assigned a lot of homework."

"As someone as kind as me, I definitely have to help him out."

...

"Well, he must be very grateful to you."

Chu Xiu chuckled, feeling like he had seen another side of Gwen's cunning.

The two walked side by side on the road.

Chatting as they walked.

They soon returned to the community.

"I won't accompany you any further."

"If you have any problems in the future, you can come to this address to find me."

Chu Xiu handed over a card with the address of a holy place in New York written on it.

Gwen took the card.

A smile appeared on her face.

This was her first time interacting with other superheroes after being bitten by a mutated spider.

No need to hide her abilities, she could talk about anything she wanted.

This feeling greatly relieved Gwen's inner confusion and fear of becoming a superhero.

"Thank you, Chu Xiu."

Not knowing where her courage came from, Gwen suddenly tiptoed and quickly tapped Chu Xiu's cheek.

Then she ran off towards Peter's house as if escaping.

"??"

"Is this what American high school girls are like?"

"They're really enthusiastic and open."

Chu Xiu smiled and shook his head.

...

Back at home.

Felicia had already prepared dinner.

While eating, Chu Xiu suddenly remembered something.

His sharp gaze swept across Erika, Felicia, and Wanda's faces.

Facing Chu Xiu's gaze.

Erika remained as calm as ever, as if she hadn't seen anything, and continued eating.

Felicia hid like a mouse, lowering her head, her gaze flickering, not daring to make eye contact.

Only Wanda, with a look of confusion, maintained eye contact with Chu Xiu.

"Mr. Chu Xiu, do you have a question?"

Wanda asked cautiously.

Being stared at by an adult man, especially a very handsome one, at the age when she was just beginning to experience romantic feelings.

Wanda's cheeks turned visibly red, reaching all the way to the roots of her ears.

"I'm thinking about a question."

"What question?"

Wanda couldn't handle being looked at like that and lowered her head slightly.

"How do you think one can conquer or subdue a domineering and strong-willed woman?"

Chu Xiu put down his utensils and asked seriously.

"..."

"..."

The blush on Wanda's face almost instantly disappeared.

Even Felicia looked up at Chu Xiu, her eyes seemingly saying... You never cease to amaze.

In front of a young girl who clearly has a crush on you, you're talking about conquering other women?

And you even ask her for advice?

What advice?

Advice to stay single for the rest of your life!

Felicia had a thousand sarcastic remarks in her heart, but she didn't dare to say a word.

"What are you all thinking?"

"When I say 'conquer,' I mean to recruit her as a subordinate, someone who can help me in fights."

Chu Xiu noticed the change in everyone's expressions and quickly explained.

Upon hearing this, Wanda finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she herself didn't know why she was so nervous just now.

"But I've never had any contact with this type of woman."

Wanda shook her head.

In the past, she was either a lab rat or wandering around, barely getting enough to eat.

Let alone a queen-like woman, she had hardly interacted with any normal people.

"Don't look at me, I'm not that type either, I'm easy to pursue."

Just as Wanda and Felicia both expressed their helplessness,

Erika, who had been silently eating her meal, suddenly spoke up:

"The more domineering and strong-willed a woman is, the more obvious her vulnerability becomes."

"As long as you find her weak point, she will collapse with a single blow."
