Chapter 13 - Chapter 12: Avalon Industries Is Born

Tony never expected the question.Alex walked into the kitchen that morning, calm as always, and said:

Alex: "Tony, can you give me some startup capital? I want to open a company."

Tony froze, coffee cup halfway to his mouth.

Pepper raised an eyebrow."Startup capital" usually meant a few million at most—maybe fifty million if Tony was generous.

Instead, Tony reached into his wallet and tossed Alex a black Stark Unlimited debit card.

Tony: "There's around four hundred million in it. Try not to blow it all in one day."

Pepper nearly fainted.

Pepper: "Tony—FOUR HUNDRED—are you out of your mind?!"Tony: "That's baby money. He's a Stark."Alex: "…Thanks?"

Alex accepted the card, stunned.

Then Tony added casually:

Tony: "Oh, also… here."

He tossed a key.

Tony: "A villa in Malibu Point. Right next to mine. I was saving it for your seventeenth birthday, but hell, take it now."

Pepper stared at Tony as if he'd grown a second head.

Alex was speechless—but deeply touched.

Tony and Pepper left for a meeting at Stark Industries, leaving Alex alone with his new future.

Avalon Industries – Registered

Alex: "Jarvis, register a new company for me."Jarvis: "What shall I call it, sir?"Alex: "Avalon Industries."

A few minutes later:

Jarvis: "Registration completed. All legal documentation prepared."

Avalon Industries now officially existed.

The Malibu Villa

Alex drove to the villa Tony gifted him.When he stepped inside, he was shocked.

Floor-to-ceiling ocean view

Stark-grade security systems

A personal underground lab

Workstations mirroring Tony's old lab

Automated manufacturing tools

Quantum-grade servers

And an entire storage area labeled "For Alex Only"

It was perfect.

Alex immediately checked his system.

Alex looked at it all with pride.He had reached the level of a super-genius even without his system.

And now… it was time to use the Summon Tickets.

The Summons Arrive

Alex: "System, if I use summons, will people get suspicious?"System: "No. I will generate perfect legal backgrounds. They will be seen as personally hired staff."

Satisfied, Alex used all five summon tickets at once.

A glowing light filled the villa.

And then—

Five beautiful women appeared.

From different worlds. Different realities.All kneeling before him.

Grayfia Lucifuge – the strongest maid of the Underworld.

Venelana Bael – strikingly elegant, noble and seductive.

Yasaka – the graceful nine-tailed queen.

Uzumaki Kushina – fiery, powerful, full of energy.

Albedo – the perfect, devoted, overwhelming beauty of Nazarick.

The five of them stared at Alex.

And blushed.

Hard.

His perfect body + Phoenix bloodline gave him beauty that rivaled gods.They couldn't help themselves.

Alex blinked awkwardly.

Alex: "Um… is everything okay?"Grayfia: "Y-Yes, Master."Kushina: "Everything's fine dattebane!"Albedo (smiling dangerously): "Perfect, in fact."

All five had the same thought:

"He's… gorgeous."

And they silently vowed to win his heart.

New Identities Assigned

The system instantly forged identities:

Business degrees

Legal documents

Citizenship

Financial records

Employment contracts

Perfect.

Now Alex needed a team.

Avalon Industries – Staff Appointments

Grayfia Lucifuge→ Personal Maid & Assistant→ Has full access to Alex's schedules and private spaceGrayfia smirked. The closest role to Alex.

Uzumaki Kushina→ Personal Secretary→ Works directly beside Alex every dayKushina pumped her fist—she got daily proximity.

Albedo→ COO of Avalon Industries→ In charge of global operationsShe practically glowed with pride.

Venelana Bael→ CEO of Avalon Industries→ Oversees strategic direction, public relationsShe smiled confidently; leadership was her domain.

Yasaka→ Head of Board of Directors→ Manages global influence, diplomatic connectionsYasaka nodded gracefully.

Some were jealous.

Some were smug.

Some were competitive.

But all had one goal:

Win Alex's heart.

Preparing for the Future

Alex opened the System Store and purchased:

✔ Red Queen AIA combat-grade, financial-grade AI far more advanced than Jarvis.

He installed her into the villa and connected her to Avalon Industries.

Alex: "Red Queen, use 200 million dollars to buy stocks that will explode after 2008—Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Amazon. Spread it out."Red Queen: "Executing. Estimated future value: multiple billions."

Perfect.

The remaining 200 million?Alex would use it to create his first product line.

He purchased formulas from the system:

Long-lasting foundation

Ultra-durable lipsticks

Skin-regeneration serums

Hair revitalizers

Cosmetics—simple, safe, and easy to scale.

Avalon Cosmetics would dominate the market.

Night Falls

Alex gathered his team.

Alex: "We'll start working tomorrow. For tonight, get some rest."

They bowed respectfully.

But inside?

Grayfia felt smug—she would be closest to him.

Kushina also felt smug—she had a personal role.

Albedo was plotting "accidental encounters."

Venelana and Yasaka quietly planned long-term strategies.

Each one determined:

"I will make Alex fall for me first."

Alex, completely oblivious, went to bed.

His team of five extraordinary women went to their rooms—each one blushing, each one dreaming of him.
