Avalon HQ – 2004
With Avalon Gaming dominating the entire world, Avalon HQ transformed into a global tech hub.Reporters were waiting outside every day.Business partners flew in from every country.
But none of that prepared Alex for the real chaos.
💥 Gwen & Helen Arrive – And War Starts Again
Gwen Stacy and Dr. Helen Cho stormed into Avalon HQ without warning.Both had cleared their schedules.Both demanded to meet Alex immediately.
Employees whispered:
"Oh no… the blonde and the doctor are back.""Get popcorn, it's happening again."
When Alex stepped out of the elevator, Gwen and Helen spoke at the same time:
Gwen:
"Why didn't you tell me you were making a gaming division!?"
Helen:
"And why wasn't I invited to join the project? I'm more qualified than half your staff!"
Alex blinked.
Then blinked again.
Then sighed.
Alex:
"…I didn't tell either of you because you're busy saving lives and studying molecular anatomy. Not playing video games."
Gwen: "HEY!"
Helen: "I CAN multitask!"
Behind Alex, Grayfia, Albedo, Yasaka, Venelana, and Kushina watched like an audience at a theater.
Albedo (smiling sweetly):
"Oh? So now they want Alex's attention again?"
Yasaka:
"Humans are bold, I'll give them that."
Venelana:
"This will be entertaining."
Alex internally prayed for strength.
💘 The Jealousy Meter Breaks
Gwen grabbed Alex's sleeve.
Gwen:
"You owe me compensation!I deserve early access to the new games!"
Helen grabbed Alex's other arm.
Helen:
"I deserve full access to the R&D lab.And a keycard to the gaming server room."
Alex froze.
Grayfia narrowed her eyes. Albedo cracked her knuckles. Kushina's hair turned spiky. Yasaka's aura flared golden.
The entire HQ felt the temperature drop.
Grayfia:
"Lady Gwen. Dr. Cho.Please… let go of the master."
Gwen and Helen: immediately let go
Venelana whispered to Yasaka:
Venelana:
"If they keep grabbing him like that, I might drag one of them to a dueling arena."
Yasaka:"I'll join."
Alex: "Please don't."
💼 Alex's Final Decision
To calm them, Alex said:
Alex:
"Fine.Helen, you can collaborate on the medical AI project we're starting next month.Gwen, you're now the lead tester for Avalon Gaming."
Gwen gasped.
Helen smiled smugly.
And all five supernatural women sighed… then glared at them again.
Chaos survived another day.
