Chapter 436: Want One?
🕑 Added 2025-11-09 06:59:00 +0000 UTCNoah finally understood the extent of these foreigners' fanaticism for Star Wars. Helpless, Noah was continuously questioned by Tony and Fury. Finally, Noah had no choice but to recount his experiences during that period.
He talked about how he, Thor, and Loki landed on a primitive, natural planet and met two Jedi who had survived the Great Purge. Then, while researching the Force, they also traveled around a bit, eventually encountering Darth Vader. He also mentioned taking a Nightsister as an apprentice on Soumyadar, and then going to meet the reclusive Master Yoda, even saving his life.
"He wasn't going to live much longer anyway. After all, a goblin living for over nine hundred years was already near its limit, and then he sparred with Thor and almost died on the spot."
"Thor, that damn guy! How could he do that to Master Yoda?"
"Hmm, so what are you going to do?"
"Damn it! Aren't you a Star Wars fan? Master Yoda is a great Jedi Master!"
Noah rolled his eyes. "I'm really not a Star Wars fan, so what's the point of telling me? And Master Yoda wasn't always right; at least in Anakin's case, some of your actions weren't great, at least Noah thinks so. Think about it, a promising young talent, instead of thinking about how to properly nurture and guide him, was directly abandoned because of some future visions.
Honestly, if he had properly guided Anakin, even if the Galactic Empire still appeared, the Jedi would definitely not have ended up in that tragic state."
But these were all Noah's own thoughts; he didn't need to say so much to Tony and the others. Everyone had their own understanding of Star Wars. For example, George Lucas, who made Star Wars, actually thought he was just making a family drama. Of course, that was his own thought, and he himself didn't know why that movie script appeared in his head...
After chatting about Noah's adventures in the Star Wars parallel universe, the two guys decided to leave. Tony's movie wasn't finished filming yet, and he now had more things to do, such as researching the data in the hard drive Noah gave him. Fury was pretty much the same; he needed to go back and prepare for Noah's suggestions, such as discussing them with his trusted subordinates.
However, as he left, he kept trying to talk to Tony, and it was clear he was very interested in the hard drive Noah gave Tony.
Noah had absolutely no interest in these matters. He
was, however, quite interested in something Fury said to him before leaving.
That was, Fury had just told him that Cross seemed to have found the person Noah asked him to find, and Jason had also sent news that the High Table seemed to have gained a small team whose technology was excellent.
The person Cross found was probably Rayla; Noah wasn't too interested in this woman for now. As for the High Table, no matter how powerful the new team was, it was just that. Noah was quite eager to meet the dog lover who looked very much like Constantine.
But before that, Noah still had an event to attend: the Ministry of Magic election in March. Although this month was also Noah's birthday, Noah didn't have much thought about celebrating his birthday or not. At his current level of power, celebrating a birthday every year would be a burden. Noah even sometimes considered celebrating his birthday only once every ten years. It wouldn't be a big deal anyway, as his vitality could completely afford it.
________________________________________
After his return, Noah's life became incredibly peaceful.
Those alien invasions, like cute little creatures, caused no burden whatsoever to the Ministry of Magic or Kamar-Taj. It could only be said that the Aurors' tasks
were slightly heavier, but these were minor issues.
Compared to before, the Aurors' work in this stable and peaceful magical world wasn't as much as imagined.
Plus, the Aurors' salaries weren't low, so they had no complaints and often bragged about encountering aliens.
Time quickly came to March. Noah spent his birthday in his Sanctum. Very few people attended the gathering, but it was very warm. In the same month, Dumbledore, who had maintained his dominant position in the British wizarding world for nearly twenty years, chose to resign.
This marked the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. As for the vote... well, the British wizarding world also held a vote, and there were many candidates, but the result was exactly as imagined: a completely one-sided vote. Thus, without any suspense, Hermione successfully became the new Minister of Magic after Dumbledore.
Noah also specially took time to attend this inauguration ceremony of the British Minister of Magic.
It could be said that with Hermione's assumption of office, Noah's planned deployments from years ago were basically complete. Thinking about these twenty-plus years of planning and deployment, Noah felt that reaching this point today was truly not easy. But now that it had succeeded, Noah was naturally very happy.
Although there was a small accident that turned this Minister into his girlfriend, overall, everything went smoothly.
"Finally turned the entire British wizarding world into your backyard. How does it feel?" Sitting in a pub in London, Constantine took a comfortable sip of beer, then looked at Noah sitting beside him and asked curiously.
Noah tilted his head, wondering what he was thinking, even ignoring a beautiful lady who walked by and tried to chat him up.
"Feeling?" After a long pause, Noah finally spoke. "It feels alright, I guess. After all, I worked so hard for so long, so it's natural to be happy when there are results."
"Then what are you thinking about? Why does it feel like it has nothing to do with happiness?"
"Heh heh, does happiness always have to be expressed?
As for you, you've been engaged for so long, why haven't you gotten married yet?" Alright, Noah's skill as a conversation stopper was pretty good.
In the blink of an eye, Constantine was just focused on drinking. It was clear Constantine didn't want to discuss the issue, but unfortunately, Noah was a boring guy.
Under his repeated questioning, Constantine finally gave in.
"Alright, alright, you're really boring," Constantine sighed. "Actually, I don't care about the wedding or anything, and she also has a lot of things to handle, like resigning and such. Oh, by the way, she's an Auror now, and she'll probably come to England next year."
"Coming over next year? You two are truly in a long-distance relationship," Noah took a sip of his drink.
"No rush, we'll be getting married soon anyway," Constantine smiled carelessly. "Honestly, we're not even planning to have a wedding." No wedding? Noah tilted his head and looked at him. He found that although the guy's tone didn't sound serious, they seemed quite serious. Noah rubbed his chin and nodded. It seemed like having or not having a wedding really wasn't a big deal.
Constantine didn't believe in God, and Noah and his group were even less so, so it seemed no one cared whether they became husband and wife under this guy's witness.
Rubbing his chin, Noah said no more, but Noah, being full of mischief, his eyes darted around, and he seemed to have thought of something interesting. "John, interested in going to New York with me?"
"To New York? Why? To fight aliens?"
"No, an interesting person, and aren't you going to see your fiance?"
"Although I always feel like you're definitely thinking something bad, your second sentence makes a lot of sense, so I plan to go with you to take a look."
________________________________________
While Noah and Constantine were preparing to do something interesting, outside a villa in the suburbs of New York, USA, Jason silently watched a somewhat weathered, long-haired man with a dog drive off in a classic Ford Mustang. Jason had been tracking this guy for a long time. He knew that this guy, who looked almost identical to Noah's friend, was actually a very unlucky fellow.
He was an undocumented immigrant, a top assassin, but unfortunately, he chose to retire for his loved one. But good times didn't last long; his beloved died of illness, which was an unimaginable blow to him! Jason didn't know why Noah wanted him to keep an eye on this guy, but Jason was never one to ask too many questions.
So Jason followed him every day. Although this guy's
anti-reconnaissance awareness was very strong, who was Jason? Jason was a top agent, after all. The difference between an assassin and an agent was that one was legal and the other was illegal, so Jason wasn't afraid of him.
Today, John Wick was going out, and Jason naturally followed him. What Jason didn't expect was that a group of hoodlums had taken a fancy to his car. This made Jason somewhat amused. Although John Wick now looked like a toothless beast, he was not someone a group of hoodlums could deal with.
However, Jason still kept an eye out. Although he didn't consider these hoodlums as people at all, these few hoodlums still had some background.
Jason remembered this group being some Russian gang, right? Jason strongly disliked these gangs and completely disregarded these lawless organizations. The only reason these guys existed now was purely because his business was slowly becoming legitimate, and for the time being, the big shots weren't interested in dealing with them.
Shaking his head, Jason followed John Wick, who had driven around who knows how many times, back to his residence. Seeing this, Jason also planned to leave first, but before he could even drive off, a voice came from behind him. "Just bought a cheeseburger. Want one?"
