Marvel: Saint Seiya Starting with the Reality Stone.

Mike paused for a moment upon hearing this, then seemed to remember something and slapped his forehead: "My bad, I'm sorry, my phone got frozen while I was traveling in the Arctic. I figured I was coming back anyway, so I didn't buy a new phone there."

The phone was destroyed during the battle with Malekith.

When he came out of the Arctic and went to Natik's house to rest for a while, Natik invited him to go fishing at sea.

Mike thought it would be nice to relax, so he went and spent three days there.

It's true that he didn't want to buy a phone there. Anyway, he was going back to New York City soon, and Heidi already had several old phones at home, so there was no need to waste the money.

Save where you should, spend where you should.

The most important thing.

He didn't expect Heidi to be transferred from the FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. back to New York City. When the two were separated by distance, due to Heidi's work, they would only call each other when they had free time on weekends. Sometimes, when Heidi was busy, she wouldn't call for a whole month.

"That's right!"

Mike thought to himself, then changed the subject, looking at Heidi with some curiosity: "Why were you suddenly transferred back to New York City? I've never heard you mention it."

Heidi took a sip of coffee: "About two weeks ago, my supervisor said that the New York office was short-staffed, and I was also thinking of going back to New York City."

Heidi put down her coffee, looked at Mike, and smiled slightly: "What, you don't welcome me back? Do you have a girlfriend?"

Mike looked at Heidi's smile and didn't find it pretty; instead, he felt a strange, unsettling feeling.

Let's say that.

Brothers with older sisters all understand.

Mike chuckled, meeting Heidi's gaze without flinching: "Believe me, if I get a girlfriend, you'll be the first to know."

He's not against marriage or being single; he simply hasn't met a woman who makes his heart flutter.

That's it.

As Mike spoke, he steered the conversation back to Heidi herself.

"And what about you, boyfriend?"

"separated."

Heidi picked up her coffee cup again, her tone very calm.

Mike was slightly taken aback.

"They broke up again? With John?"

"No, Adam, John broke up with you the day after we spoke two months ago."

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Mike subconsciously gasped, looked at Heidi's calm expression, clicked his tongue twice, and shook his head: "Heidi, do you think I still have a chance to walk down the aisle with you?"

Her adoptive parents are now dead. If Heidi gets married, it will be him who takes Heidi's hand and hands her over to her future husband.

But Heidi's emotional experiences were... too rich.

of course.

Mike made no comment on Heidi's love life.

Everyone has their own way of living, and as long as Heidi doesn't care, he won't say anything.

Even though Mike and Heidi hadn't seen each other for two months, in just a few words of question and answer, the siblings, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, seemed to find the feeling of bickering as children again.

Heidi recounts how a male agent in the New York office recently invited her out for a drink, and what she's been considering.

Mike recounted their meetings during his trips to London and Norway, and Heidi's eyes lit up, especially when she talked about going fishing at sea with Natick.

"Sea fishing sounds wonderful, I want to go too."

"Then take a vacation."

Mike looked at Heidi and said with a smile, "I'll go with you. The roasted polar bear in Natick is sure to be a hit. By the way, have you taken a single day off since you started working?"

Heidi shook her head with a wry smile.

"I'd like to, but I can't."

"Why not? Does the FBI in New York not work without you?"

"..."

19. How to awaken your sixth sense!

Mike said he couldn't understand Heidi's thinking.

However, if he had to describe Heidi in three words, he would define her as a "career woman".

Just like Mike just said.

Heidi has not taken a vacation since she became a federal agent.

The only time Heidi took a vacation was last year when her adoptive parents passed away, but after their burial and the event concluded, she rushed back to Washington, D.C., to continue working.

Unlike Mike.

He doesn't have a proper job.

of course.

Before the Battle of New York, Mike had planned to find a serious job after graduation, work hard to earn money, and then find a wife and have seven or eight children.

But after his adoptive parents died, all Mike could think about was obtaining the Reality Stone to awaken his inner universe and then seeking revenge on Loki for his adoptive parents.

So since graduating from university last year, Mike hasn't gone out to look for a job. He earns money by doing tax filing for his neighbors in the community.

However, don't underestimate this tax filing job.

If you knew that most people here choose to file their own taxes, you'd know how lucrative this job is.

Well known.

Lawyers, doctors, and accountants are considered highly sought-after professions in any country.

Mike's choice to study accounting was not impulsive; it was a well-thought-out decision.

Firstly, he is not good at speaking, so the legal profession is the first thing he is out of the running.

Secondly, although doctors make money, and a lot of money, the training period is too long, so Mike also kicked them out.

All that's left is the accountant.

So Mike chose accounting as his major, and before graduating last year, he passed the New York State CPA exam and became a professional accountant.

So, by charging slightly less than professional accounting firms and living in this middle-class community, his neighbors were naturally happy to pay him a fee to help them with their taxes.

The neighbors can spend less money, and Mike can earn some.

Win-win.

So even though he didn't look for a job after graduating last year, he still managed to save enough money for his round-trip trip to London and Norway by helping his neighbor with his taxes.

Therefore, Mike didn't quite understand Heidi's choice to prioritize her career.

He looked at Heidi with a serious expression: "You really should relax, Heidi. I remember you used to travel with your friends when you were in school, but have you traveled to other places since you started working?"

Upon hearing this, Heidi instinctively spoke up.

Mike seemed to know what Heidi was going to say and added, "Business trips don't count."

Heidi is an agent at FBI headquarters, but her work is not limited to Washington, D.C. She often travels to other places to assist the local FBI in solving cases.

Heidi closed her mouth after Mike added this condition.

Mike looked at Heidi's expression and couldn't help but chuckle, then shook his head: "Seriously, Heidi, take a vacation. I'll go with you, anywhere is fine."

Anyway, he has already achieved his goal this time.

Obtain the Reality Gem.

Awaken your own inner universe.

Mike's next goal is to awaken his sixth sense.

The sixth sense is an ability that transcends the five senses and is a manifestation of the true power of one's own inner universe.

Once a Saint awakens their sixth sense, they can gain unimaginable abilities such as telekinesis, elemental manipulation, and precognition.

Only those Saints who have awakened their sixth sense are Saints in the true sense.

In the Saint Seiya universe, the way to attain the sixth sense is not uniform.

Some Saint Seiya warriors broke through their limits in life-or-death battles, unleashing a powerful will to survive in desperate situations, thus awakening their sixth sense.

Some Saint Seiya warriors develop their sixth sense through rigorous training day after day.

Some even gain enlightenment along with a higher level of awakening, such as those who are identified as Gold Saints of the Zodiac from birth.

They directly experienced the sixth sense while simultaneously developing the seventh sense.

but--

These methods of developing the sixth sense in the Saint Seiya universe are not suitable for Mike.

The reason is simple.

one more time.

This is not the Saint Seiya universe, but the Marvel universe, so the way to develop the Sixth Sense in the Saint Seiya universe does not apply to Michael.

But one thing is common to all.

The sixth sense is an experience of a Saint's spiritual power, and it is also the sublimation of a Saint's mental power after pushing the five senses to their limits.

This is why the sixth sense is also known as the intuition.

The sixth sense is the awakening of the soul.

Since the goal is to achieve spiritual awakening, it is naturally not something that can be attained through solitary meditation.

At the very least, this doesn't apply to Mike in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

and so--

Going out and seeing the world might be a faster way to improve one's spiritual abilities than staying in New York City.
