However, assassination was no simple task, let alone targeting the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Once it failed, the consequences would be catastrophic. Therefore, Sitwell formulated a meticulous plan to guarantee that absolutely nothing would go wrong.
Meanwhile, Feny, who had just sent Nick Fury on his way, hadn't even given a second thought to contacting Sitwell. Checking the time, he decided it was time to visit Skye and his parents.
He made a quick phone call to check on the situation, and in the next second, he stepped through a portal, appearing right before the three of them.
"Feny!"
The moment he stepped out of the portal, a visibly thrilled Skye lunged forward, wrapping him in a warm, soft embrace.
Behind her, the two elders looked on happily at their son, who had been clever and well-behaved since childhood and had now grown up to possess a formidable array of superpowers.
"Alright, alright, it's only been a few months since we last saw each other!"
Feny gently released Skye and greeted his parents.
His parents were clearly curious about his recent travels. The moment Feny sat down, his father, Eli, spoke up, "Have you been spending the last few months out on an alien planet with aliens?"
"Pretty much!"
Feny nodded.
"What do aliens look like?"
His mother was rather intrigued by the appearance of extraterrestrials.
"Well, how should I put it... some look quite similar to us, while others are rather bizarre, like rock people or tree people."
As Feny spoke, he pulled out his phone, opened his photo gallery, and began recounting his experiences from this period, though he carefully omitted any mention of the wars he participated in.
"Is this that legendary God of Thunder?"
Because he shared a great relationship with Thor and the Warriors Three, he had taken quite a few photos with them. Upon hearing Feny's introduction, Eli couldn't help but say, "How come he looks a bit silly?"
Feny glanced at the photo of Thor, who was flashing a peace sign with a goofy grin on his face, and nodded. "He really isn't the brightest."
"Who is this?"
Skye, on the other hand, was paying more attention to Sif in the photo and immediately questioned Feny.
"Asgard's current finest female warrior, Sif. She likes Thor, but unfortunately, Thor just treats her like a bro!"
At this point, Feny couldn't help but sigh. In his eyes, Sif and Thor were actually a pretty good match. At the very least, they wouldn't have to worry about Odin's objections or issues regarding their lifespans.
Hearing that Sif liked Thor, Skye immediately felt a wave of relief. She then began scanning the photos to see if there were any other women around, a sight that brought a knowing smile to the faces of the two elders.
After more than an hour, Feny finally finished sharing the more interesting highlights of his journeys across the Nine Realms.
"I brought you all plenty of gifts too!"
With his stories concluded, Feny retrieved various gifts from his Item Storage space that he had specifically hunted for in Asgard for his parents and Skye.
"These three bottles are magical potions capable of enhancing one's physical constitution. I've double-checked to ensure they will work on humans!"
Asgard's magical alchemy had once been highly prosperous, but with the depletion and difficulty of cultivating rare medicinal ingredients, it had gradually declined. Consequently, these three bottles of potion had cost him quite a substantial amount of gold.
Watching Feny pull out three exquisite little bottles seemingly out of thin air, all three of them stared in sheer astonishment.
Skye took one of the bottles, gently swirling the pale blue, faintly sparkling liquid inside, and asked curiously, "Have you drunk it?"
"No, I don't need it."
Feny shook his head. In truth, this specific potion was meant for Asgardian citizens who were born with weak constitutions or had suffered injuries during childhood that left them unhealthy.
For a normal Asgardian, drinking this potion wouldn't yield much of an effect.
As for Feny himself, due to his mastery of Breathing Techniques, his physical prowess was already far superior to that of a normal human. Thus, consuming the potion wouldn't do much for him either.
However, Skye and his parents only possessed ordinary human physiques, which were worlds apart from even a normal Asgardian's baseline, making the potion highly effective for them.
"And these jewelry pieces have protective magic enchanted onto them, capable of deflecting a certain amount of damage."
Next, Feny produced several beautiful pieces of jewelry, most of which were imbued with two or three spells. Aside from promoting general health, they possessed certain offensive and defensive capabilities.
Feny explained the instructions for using them one by one, keeping the looks of utter amazement fixed on their faces.
"Where on earth did you get all these things?"
Staring at the collection of items before her, Skye couldn't help but ask.
"Bought them in Asgard. Thor's mother, Queen Frigga, is a wonderful person. She gave me some gold coins, which I basically used entirely to buy gifts."
Feny explained. Frankly speaking, although he was friends with Heimdall and the Warriors Three, the person in Asgard who had left the finest impression on him was Frigga. She was a person who had single-handedly elevated his favorability toward the entirety of Asgard.
"I want to go on an interstellar trip too!"
Hearing Feny's response, Skye couldn't help but mutter softly under her breath, her eyes brimming with envy. Clearly, the experience of alien shopping held an immense allure for her.
"Next time, definitely!"
Feny shrugged. Given Skye's current abilities, she would easily earn respect if she went to Asgard, as it was a civilization that highly revered martial prowess.
Afterward, under Feny's urging, the three of them drank the physical enhancement potions. The effects kicked in rapidly. While Skye's changes weren't overtly obvious yet, his parents instantly looked significantly younger.
In truth, Feny harbzed a great deal of guilt toward his parents. Although it was done for their safety, making them leave their familiar life in New York at their advanced age was really not ideal.
"Once the matters with S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra are entirely resolved, I'll bring them back!"
Looking at his parents, who were currently marveling at the changes in themselves, Feny made up his mind.
In reality, after the Chitauri incident, the baseline danger level of New York had dropped significantly. Moreover, given his current strength and capabilities, having the two of them right by his side would probably be the safest option of all.
Time spent in a family reunion always flew by. After spending three days living with Skye and his parents, Feny opened a portal once more and returned to New York.
Although Skye desperately wanted to tag along, considering the trail her travel records would leave, she ultimately chose to obediently stay behind.
Over the next two days, Feny practiced his skills while accompanying the Ancient One at Kamar-Taj to study the Eye of the Wicked King. Soon, another two days slipped by, and he arrived at the laboratory once more, preparing to train Wanda and Pietro.
After such a long period to cool off, Helen Cho had returned to her usual demeanor upon seeing him again. Although she still didn't quite dare to meet his gaze directly, she was doing much better compared to her previous bashfulness.
Regarding this situation, Feny honestly didn't know how to handle it.
While he was still a human right now, he estimated that sooner or later, a day would come when he would transcend humanity. At the very least, he wouldn't be content to just live comfortably for a hundred years and slowly wait for old age to take him.
Therefore, after giving it some thought, he decided to just let things take their natural course. After all, there were still numerous crises in the near future that had not been thoroughly resolved. Once those dangers were cleared, it wouldn't be too late to ponder matters of the heart.
