Marvel With Zanpakuto

Chapter 122 - Their Promise

The first date of young boys and girls was always full of shyness and reservation.

…

At a pizza shop on the street.

This pizza shop was quite famous in Brooklyn. It was a traditional Italian barbecue pizza, and the taste was quite good.

The reason why she chose this place was because in her sixty-fifth universe, Peter Parker liked the pizza of this shop the most.

Although she knew very well in her heart that Peter was not Peter that she knew before.

But…

She just wanted to sit in this shop with Peter again and laugh when she talked about her future dreams.

No Spiderman…

No Lizardman…

Only friends.

“Wow? How do you know that I like this store’s pizza the most?” Peter Parker saw the familiar signboard and the fragrance of the nose. He looked at Gwen Stacy strangely.

Originally, he thought that he was thinking too much…

But now it seemed that the goddess of the boys in the school was really in love with him!

Otherwise, why did he know everything about the pizza that he liked?

“Haha —I guessed it.”

Gwen raised her hand and pulled up the hair that had fallen from her temples. She pinned it behind the sparkling hair and stuck out his tongue.

So beautiful…

The breeze at the corner of the street brushed past the two, and the air was filled with special hormones. Under the contrast of the neon lights, Gwen looked particularly beautiful, and Peter Parker was stunned for a moment.

“Let’s go, don’t stand outside the shop.”

The gaze of passers-by made Gwen’s cheeks a little hot, and she hurriedly took Peter’s hand and stepped into the pizza shop.

So soft…

So warm…

For some reason,

Peter suddenly felt that he and Gwen seemed to have known each other for a long time.

The decoration of the pizza shop was very neat. There were not many people inside. There were only a few tables of guests. Gwen pulled Peter and sat in a seat by the window.

Peter Parker looked a little tense. It was the first time he came out to eat with a girl, especially when the person sitting opposite him was the goddess in the mind of the whole school!

Gwen was much more natural, generously taking the menu, ordering vegetable fruit salad, and a large pizza, as well as two cups of juice and a serving of french fries.

The two people talked about everything, even their interests and hobbies were quite aligned, as if they were really good friends who had known each other for many years.

Gwen looked at Peter gently, silently remembering these things in her heart, treating them as the most precious treasure.

After the meal.

“I am so happy to chat with you. If Ned was here, he would definitely become good friends with you.” Peter Parker smacked his lips and said reluctantly.

With one hand on her head, Gwen asked with a smile, “Ned, is he your friend?”

“That’s right!”

Peter chuckled and said, “Ned is my best friend!”

“Is that so?”

Gwen smiled, his eyes unconsciously looking out the window. “What about us?”

“We are also good friends!” Peter said resolutely without hesitation.

Gwen looked at the neon lights outside the window and said with a complicated mood, “Then… If I kill you in the future, do you still think I am a good friend?”

“Stop joking.”

Peter’s head was full of question marks. “Killing is illegal. Besides, why would you kill me?”

“If! I mean if!”

Gwyn looked straight into his eyes and emphasized seriously, “If I kill you, will you forgive me?”

Peter scratched the back of his head and asked, “Then you have to tell me why you want to kill me, right?”

“Because…” Gwen was conflicted for a while, not knowing how to tell Peter. She could not tell him that she was a superhero, could she?

“Because you made a mistake! A big mistake, so I must kill you!”

Peter smiled, leaned against the chair, took a sip of juice with a straw in his mouth, and then said, “I see, you mean superhero playing games, right?”

“… Yes.” Gwen suddenly felt a little ashamed.

“Isn’t it natural for a superhero to defeat the villain?” Peter put down the juice and said.

“You… won’t blame me?”

Gwen’s eyes flickered slightly, and she asked again with a trembling voice.

“Of course not.”

Peter took a sip of juice and said, “If I were a big bad guy, you killed me just to protect justice, didn’t you?”

“But… we are friends…”

“We are friends, but if even superheroes are shaken, who else can protect justice?”

“I don’t know what truth is, but my uncle often told me that with great power, comes great responsibility. I think this is what superheroes have to bear.”

“with great power, comes great responsibility…” Gwen read this sentence, and her eyes gradually lit up.

Peter said enviously, “I really hope that one day, I can also become a super hero and protect everyone like them.”

Gwen’s expression changed slightly. Peter in the previous universe had said this before, but she did not care about it at the beginning, and it eventually led to that tragedy.

“What a pity…”

Peter smacked his lips and said, “If I can experience being a superhero once, I can do anything. That power…”

“Peter!”

Gwen shouted and interrupted Peter. Her eyes became very serious!

At this moment, Gwen made Peter feel a little strange and terrible.

“I’m sorry…”

Gwen quickly reacted. She was exaggerating . She forced a smile and said, “Promise me… Never, never pursue the power of a superhero. Do not even think about it, okay?”

She had already witnessed the birth of a tragedy and did not want to witness the birth of another tragedy.

“On what basis!”

Peter was angry and felt that Gwen was too inexplicable.

Although he knew that he did not have that ability, he could not even imagine it. Wasn’t it too much?

Gwen did not dare to look straight into his eyes. She lowered her head and said in a nearly pleading voice, “Even if… I beg you, can you? Peter Parker.”

“… You actually took it seriously?”

Peter did not know whether to laugh or cry. In his eyes, Gwen had become a severe superhero junky, and even had an illusion.

“I beg you…”

Gwen’s voice became a little low. Her hands on the table clenched tightly, and even her joints burst out. “I beg you… Peter, this is my last request.”

“Alright, alright —“

Peter comforted, “Don’t worry, I won’t be a superhero.”

“You swear?” Gwen was a little doubtful.

“I swear on my uncle that if I become a superhero, I will be beaten until my butt blooms, okay?” Peter swore helplessly.

“Thank you.”

Gwen finally smiled, as if she had put down her last burden. Her entire person instantly became different.

Peter could see that the current Gwen had become more… good-looking.

“I should go, Peter.”

Gwen smiled and said, “In the future… see you again.”

“Ah? So fast?”

Peter was confused. He did not expect it to end so quickly.

“Sorry, I have something to do,” Gwen said as she pulled up her hair.

…

“You’re here?”

“Yes.”

“You seem to have become different?”

“… Uncle, you really have a lot to say.”

Under the moonlight.

Gwen and Frank walked side by side towards Kingpin’s secret factory in the suburbs.
