Time left before Godslayer Protocol: 1 month and 29 days.

You lifted your head when Widow told you about the next mission. You didn't know if you heard her right.

Y/N: We're going to South Korea to, meet a K-Pop group?

Widow nodded.

Widow: Most teenage boys would be excited to meet a group of cute teenage idols who just so happen to be huge fans.

Y/N: Most teenage boys also haven't been through most of the shit I have. Why do we need to go to Korea if we don't even have a mission?

Widow: Because it will bring us one step closer to finding Richards.

You sat up.

Y/N: I'm in.

Widow looked at you for a moment.

Widow: You really aren't a normal teenage boy.

You packed your bags quickly before Widow stopped you.

Widow: You don't need to pack anything. My contact will be making the necessary arrangements.

You looked at your sword and turned back to Widow. She shook her head. You held it up and sighed before tossing it on the bed. It was weird that you only had one sword since you gave Dane the Ebony Blade. It was his family's sword and he proved himself more than you could've hoped.

Y/N: Fine. When do we leave?

Widow: Right now. Just pack your uniform.
-----------
Y/N: Holy. Fucking. Shit.

You looked around the fancy hotel room. You smiled as you opened a door and found a massive bed. You jumped and landed face first onto the soft mattress with a sigh of happiness.

Y/N: This ks the life.

Widow: I take back what I said. You are like a normal teenage boy.

She laughed before setting her small bag down on the table. You rolled off the bed and walked to her.

Y/N: So when are we meeting these girls you keep talking about and how do they know Richards?

Widow unpacked her laptop and equipment.

Widow: We'll be meeting them tonight after their concert. As for their connection, one of them is a Hero. Said Hero got her powers from one of Richards' experiments after A.I.M attack a performance.

Y/N: Sounds like a lot to unpack there. I suddenly don't care.

You sat down on the fancy leather couch and turned on the TV. You missed TV.

Y/N: So you said that these girls are my fans?

Widow tossed your her phone and you looked at the Twitter page displayed. It was all the girls' accounts. Every single one had something to say about you. All of them were in Korean but you could read them just fine. Jesus. They weren't just fans, they looked like they all had crushes on you.

Y/N: Hm. I'm guessing they don't know my identity.

Widow: Which is why I asked you to bring your uniform.

Y/N: Good to know.
---------
It was now night time and you and Widow were sitting in a limo driving to the stadium where the concert was being held. You and Widow decided to skip the music part. You were sure that in another life Kamala was screaming at you. K-Pop just wasn't for you.

You and Widow were escorted in through the back where there were many photographers snapping pictures. You had the metal mask on so you didn't worry about your identity getting leaked. The tournament was rough enough but you knew that the festival was mostly a local thing no one outside of Symkaria knew who you were. Regardless, the knowledge that Monster won the tournament did get out. Your name was still private so that was a plus.

Widow: You're lucky you don't have to smile.

Y/N: Good, cause I'm really uncomfortable right now.

Widow: You only have yourself to blame. Monster has gotten quite famous thanks to all of your exports.

You sighed. At least you were expiring hope. You and Widow finally made it inside and away from the cameras. You and Widow were then escorted to a back room where you were left alone. You deactivated your mask and smiled.

It was the same mask Miguel gave you but Widow had made some small adjustments. From your neck up to your cheeks was a thin fabric that attached to your skin. On the edge of the fabric was a magnetic strip of metal that held the mask in place so you could attach the mask at will. Widow even painted it so it looked like a row of sharp teeth.

Y/N: I like this new design. Thanks.

Widow: Don't mention it. The girls should be getting off stage now so they're going to change and then head over here. And tomorrow you will be spending time with them for some magazines.

Y/N: Oh boy. I can't wait. When did you become my manager and why am I suddenly a celebrity?

Widow: It was a request from my contact. Just do it. Once you do we'll get the information we need.

You sat down on the couch and groaned. You didn't like the idea of being flocked by a bunch of girls. You knew nothing about them on top of that. You were either going to embarrass yourself, or embarrass them. You decided to take the chance to meditate some more.

Widow: You really like doing that huh?

Y/N: It clears my mind. I want to get my spiritual energy up and maybe even unlock my Chi.

Widow: Getting stronger on your own?

You grinned.

Y/N: Yeah. I don't want to rely on the Evolution Power anymore.

Widow: That's good. Shang-Chi tell you anything?

Y/N: Yeah. Just keep meditating and training my body.

You heard some laughter and quickly put on your mask. The door opened and 4 girls walked in.

Y/N: Shit! They're cute!

Your eyes landed on the last one and your eyes grew wide. Oh fo the love of...

???: <Hello. I am Seol Hee. You can call me Luna.>

You looked over at Widow unamused. She looked at Seol and made the connection. She just smiled awkwardly. You turned back to the girls and bowed slightly.

Y/N: <Hello. It's nice to meet you all.>

The girls all squealed while you smiled under your mask awkwardly.

Seol: <These are Min Jee, Jin Soo, and Hae Won. We make up 4L1T.>

You looked at the other girls and bowed once again.

Y/N: <You're all much more pretty in person.>

Your eye twitched. Did you really just say that? What was going on? Were you freaking out because they were cute or because they were your fans?

The shortest one, Min Jee you think, stepped forward and did a cute bow.

Min: <Thank you so much for coming here. We know you must be very busy with being a super Hero.>

You waved it off.

Y/N: <Don't worry about it. I'm happy that you invited us here. I heard you're all fans.>

Min nodded. The older one, Hae, stepped forward and placed a hand on Min's shoulder.

Hae: <Sorry about her. I do have to say though, your Korean is flawless. Have you been studying it long?>

You shook your head.

Y/N: <Never spoke it before. I think it's one of my powers.>

Min suddenly got excited.

Min: <You have ice powers right? So does Luna!>

You looked over to Luna who smiled. She lifted her hand up and a small snowflake appeared before going away. You mirrored the action before you melted it with your flames. You looked back to Widow. You were pretty sure that the girls knew English so you decided to switch to Russian.

Y/N: <Is she the one you were talking about?>

Widow nodded. Time to switch back to Korean.

Y/N: <So, you must have some questions?>

The one who was hanging back with Luna smiled.

Jin: <I've been trying to work on my French. You're Canadian right?>

You nodded.

Jin: <Do you think you could tell me some words in French?>

You smiled under your mask. Maybe this could be fun.
