Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

In the afternoon, in the training area's rest room.

Ah Zu had just finished showering, wearing a bathrobe and holding a cup of hot milk, and was leaning against the railing looking at the training field below.

Wanda was sweating profusely down below, constantly encouraging herself.

"Faster! Faster!"

"We need to do ten more in this set!"

After this period of special training, coupled with the intensive training aid from T-VEX, Wanda's originally somewhat slender figure now has a clearly defined six-pack.

The muscles on her arms were taut and smooth, and sweat slid down her rosy cheeks, dripping onto her collarbone.

"Huff...huff...ninety...ten!"

After finishing the last set of strength training, Wanda collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

She looked up and saw Ah Zu standing by the railing upstairs.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

Wanda's eyes lit up instantly, and her previous fatigue seemed to vanish.

She quickly got up, grabbed a towel to wipe her sweat, and ran up the stairs with light steps.

"Well done, your posture is perfect," Ah Zu praised. "No wonder she's the girl I value most."

"But I still felt it wasn't enough... Jessica said my physical abilities and reflexes were my weaknesses, which is why I was so overwhelmed by that acrobatic... oh no, Agent Patton."

Wanda was a little embarrassed by the compliment, so she quickly unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted her head back to drink the water, and a few drops of water slid down her slender neck and flowed into her deep cleavage.

"No need to be modest, you are very... outstanding."

Azu's appreciative gaze swept over her, and a masculine smile appeared on his face.

"However, excessive training can be counterproductive."

He reached out and naturally tidied her slightly messy hair on her forehead.

"Remember to balance work and rest, sweetheart. If you overwork yourself, Pietro will cry to me all day."

Wanda's heart raced at the intimate gesture. She twisted the towel between her fingers and whispered:

"I...I'm not tired. I want to become stronger, I want...I want to help you."

"You've already helped."

Ah Zu spoke gently, about to say something more.

Ashley's hurried high heels broke the enchanting atmosphere.

She quickly approached Wanda and said businesslike, "Ms. Maximov, the company's legal department has been urging us several times. Your 'Wat City Hero Contract' needs to be signed as soon as possible, otherwise your health insurance and salary card won't be issued."

Wanda glanced at the contract in Ashley's hand, her originally shy expression turning somewhat hesitant.

She raised her head, looked at Azu, and mustered her courage to say:

"Um... Carmelo Anthony, can I not sign this contract?"

"Hmm?" Azu raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong? Not satisfied with your salary and benefits? I remember Ashley offered you S-level benefits?"

"No, it's not about the money." Wanda quickly waved her hand. "I don't want to be some kind of city hero, dealing with robbers or helping old ladies find their cats."

"I want to join the group of seven."

She took a step forward, closing the distance between herself and Ah Zu, and looked up at him.

"I want to be like you, handling real crises. I want to stand by your side and fight alongside you."

"Like...like Jessica."

When Jessica was mentioned, Wanda's tone clearly carried a hint of competitiveness.

This little witch has quite the ambition.

However, the current composition of the Super Seven is indeed somewhat awkward.

Although in reality there were only six people: him, Jessica, Angela, Robbie, the Invisible Man, and Pietro.

However, they have always been publicly referred to as the "Super Seven".

The seventh person to abscond with the money—Deadpool Wade Wilson—may no longer be active in the gaming world, but his name is still on the payroll.

"Well..."

Azu looked troubled.

"Wanda, I really want you to be in The Seven. Seriously."

He sighed and spread his hands.

"But the staffing is full."

"Full?" Wanda didn't believe it, counting on her fingers. "But... one, two, three... there are only six people right now! Even that guy who can only turn invisible is here, why can't I?"

"Shh-"

Azu raised his finger.

"And one more, Wade. Although you haven't met him, he is indeed one of our members."

"He... well, he's on a top-secret mission."

Ah Zu said in a serious tone, talking nonsense.

"He's enduring hardship to protect the peace of the planet. We can't kick him out; that would be inhumane, right?"

The light in Wanda's eyes dimmed instantly.

"Oh...I see..."

She lowered her head, her voice filled with disappointment.

"So... does that mean I have no choice but to go on patrol?"

Seeing her pitiful look, Azu changed the subject.

"but……"

"If you really don't want to sign that hero contract, I do have a special job opening here."

"What position?" Wanda looked up, her anticipation returning.

"As you can see, Ashley is an excellent assistant, but she is, after all, just an ordinary person."

Azu pointed to Ashley standing next to him.

"In many dangerous situations, she can't stay with me."

"So I need a... special assistant."

"Someone with strong abilities who can protect me and always be by my side to help me."

"So, Wanda? Are you willing to humble yourself and become my assistant?"

Wanda was stunned.

Carmelo Anthony's assistant?

Can it be with you at all times?

This sounds... a million times better than the Seven!

Wanda instantly recalled the dozens of romantic workplace dramas she had watched since arriving in the United States, and she couldn't help but smile.

"Oh, yes, I do!"

"Um... I mean, since it's for work, then of course I have no problem with it."

Wanda tried hard to suppress her inner elation and pretended to be reserved as she tossed her hair.

"very good."

Azu nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Ashley, whose face was blank, and said:

"Did you hear that? Go draft a new contract. The position is Special Executive Assistant to President Vought. The salary will be based on S-class hero standards."

"Okay, boss." Ashley turned and walked away in her high heels without making a sound.

In her mind, she was furiously complaining: This isn't hiring an assistant, it's clearly picking up girls! Oh, my poor Jessica.

After Ashley left, Wanda winked at Azu, her eyelashes fluttering like fan leaves.

"So, what do I, as the assistant, need to do now?"

"I heard...you like to drink hot milk?"

"Can I heat it up for you now? I guarantee it'll be to your liking... 45 degrees?"

Ah Zu raised an eyebrow. This girl gets into character pretty quickly.

"Haha... I like 37 degrees too, sweetheart," Ah Zu laughed. "But we'll talk about the hot milk later. I'm thinking about something else right now."
