Marvel's Superman Chapter 72

"You're better at this. I am just an armchair strategist with rich theoretical knowledge. "
Luke smiled and admitted defeat. Flirting is Stark's family heritage; he can't compare.
Howard nodded modestly and accepted the complement of the young Brigadier General generously.
It has been proven that one of the best ways for men to get closer to each other is to talk about women.
Dum Dum, who has always been prejudiced against rich people, was already talking and drinking with Howard in 20 minutes.
The former is interested in the anecdotes about this playboy hooking up with a Hollywood starlet, while the latter lacked comic relief.
The two of them hit it off immediately and had a great conversation.
"Steve, come and listen to Howard's field lesson."
Luke saw Captain America walking up the stairs and waved.
Rogers has always had a good personality. After receiving a glass of whisky, he put Luke's previous teasing behind him.
Four people leaned against the bar, drinking and watching the young men and women singing and dancing.
"Howard, why aren't you dancing?"
Luke had some doubts. Howard, a flirt by nature, was willing to be a bachelor instead of having fun.
This is quite rare!
"The real professionals are always the last to make an appearance. "
Howard touched his mustaches and smiled faintly.
A few minutes later, he saw Carter, in a red dress with beautiful curves, ascending to the second floor.
He raised his hand to straighten the knot of his tie, picked up a cup of gin, smiled, and walked past with pride.
"I bet he would only last for 2 minutes at most!"
Luke opened the betting pool.
"5 minutes!"
"8 minutes!"
Dum Dum and Rogers said, respectively.
After Howard's advice, they both agreed that the other was a veteran of the trade.

"Three cups of gin!"
Within a minute of Luke placing his bet, Howard was back at the bar with his head down.
"Drink!"
Six cups of gin were lined up, Dum Dum and Rogers were drinking wildly.
"I th... thought you were a real pro. "
Dum Dum, who was tongue-tied and unable to speak clearly, looked at Howard, who failed in inviting her, with a look of contempt.
The latter grunted twice but had no words to say.
At least I dare to charge at the iceberg while you're hiding on the sidelines. "
Howard, who really couldn't find a reason, could only save face in this way.
"Steve, you give it a try!"
Luke encouraged Captain America, but fortunately, the other party never got drunk, stayed sober, and shook his head to refuse.
Even Howard, who claimed to have 'wandered among the flowers' for so many years and never lost, suffered a defeat.
You can imagine the fate of a rookie like him.
"Dugan? Eh, this guy is down for the count. "
When Luke turned his head, Dum Dum was already lying on the bar table, fast asleep.
"Goodbye, everyone, I'm going to find a young girl with a big heart and bury my head in her chest to soothe my fragile little heart. "
Howard, a veteran of the trade, quickly emerged from the shadow of defeat, looking across the table at the busty girl opposite, waiting for an invitation.
Long brown hair, beautiful face, delicate and lovely. Especially 'big hearted', making people unable to move their eyes.
"Rogers ..."
Watching Howard go away, Luke turned to Captain America.
In the end, the blonde girl who took Rogers' first kiss came up to him enthusiastically.
"So, I'm the only one left?"
After leaving an apologetic look, Rogers was dragged onto the dance floor by the blonde girl, leaving Luke alone at the bar, drinking alone but still not drunk.

The night outside was getting darker and darker, but the pub's second-floor was getting livelier and livelier.
"Don't you like dancing, General Cavill?"
The cold voice rang in Luke's ear. He put down his glass and smiled, "That's not true. I didn't find a suitable partner, so I had to stay here alone. "
"General Cavill, you seem to be a little confused as to why none of the women who are usually so enthusiastic about you, didn't one come and invite you to dance?"
Carter, dressed in a red dress and glowing, picked up Luke's unfinished drink from the bar and drank it all.
"Miss Carter, do you know why?"
Luke asked in a light-hearted tone.
"I told them you already had a scheduled partner. "
Carter's words rang true, but the delicate beads of sweat coming from the tip of her nose, the vigorous beating of her heart, and the rich pheromone scent betrayed her.
"I thought Miss Carter would hate people like me, just like you refused Howard. A flirtatious and loose person shouldn't be the type of person you would like. "
Luke took a step forward and said with a small smile at the corner of his mouth, "Or do you see through my ostentatious surface and understand that I have a stable and profound inner substance?"
"I just... like challenging tasks and love adventure. "
Carter answered in a nonchalant tone.

He died for the only thing he truly cared about, his family. In a different world a talented mage completes his life’s work, an entire rebuilding of one of the greatest ancient spells, resurrection. Bypassing the stringent requirements, he attempts to make this great magic accessible to the masses, and by doing so earn his place in history. But lost to the passage of time is the reason for these requirements. Not to unnecessarily complicate this great magic, but to ensure the transfer of only mortal souls.
