Everyone else went about their own business.
Black Phoenix and Galan stared at the delicious food and life fruit on the table, drooling.
"Where's the life fruit Nolan just gave you? Share half with me to satisfy my craving."
Galan set her sights on Black Phoenix's stash.
"No, that's mine."
Black Phoenix refused directly.
"Hand it over. I shared half with you last time, and I'll give you some next time if I have it," Galan said.
"Alright then, I only have one left."
Black Phoenix took out two life fruits, and they each gnawed on half.
Nolan and Jean were reorganizing the dining table and fruits, though only a small portion were life fruits; the more of this stuff you eat, the weaker its effect becomes.
Everyone in the family had eaten two already.
Only Nolan, doting on Black Phoenix and Galan, would occasionally feed them one.
Lorna and Wanda, the two girls, gathered together to do their homework; one was writing by hand, the other on a computer.
Their teachers had assigned them homework.
Lorna had neglected her studies recently and received a C from Tony.
Wanda was purely unlucky; because Nolan himself had just been given a new assignment, he dragged his apprentice along to do it together.
The two looked at each other, feeling a sense of mutual understanding.
"Ah!"
A scream rang out.
Everyone looked up to see Harley, with no surprise at all.
"You take this back! Who told you to give this as a gift?"
Gwen's face was full of black lines as she shoved the gift box containing a large eyeball back to Harley.
If she hadn't suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of danger from the gift box, she wouldn't have discovered what was inside.
If her mother saw it, she would probably faint on the spot.
"Why? This is my most prized collection! Don't you think it's beautiful?" Harley asked.
"No, I don't. This will only scare my mother unconscious."
"Alright, Little Spider, you're such a coward. How about this one instead?"
"Isn't this the same as before?! Don't take it out!"
"The color's different..."
Maria looked at Venom, somewhat hesitant.
"What's wrong, Mrs. Maria?" Venom asked softly, a gentle smile on her face.
For her sister's family, she was willing to show a little patience.
"I feel your demeanor is very similar to someone. Do you happen to know someone named Boa Hancock?"
Venom's smile stiffened for a moment but quickly returned to normal.
"I don't know her. Can you tell me about her?"
Maria nodded and began to speak slowly.
"Boa Hancock is actually Nolan's adoptive mother. His husband is named Dio Brando, and he's an elegant gentleman..."
Venom listened intently.
Pamela, listening nearby, found her expression growing increasingly strange. She hadn't heard of Dio, but she had seen Boa Hancock quite a lot.
At the dining table.
The lights were dim. The table was laden with all sorts of delicious food and cakes.
"Little Spider, ah!"
Harley giggled as she forked a piece of cake and brought it to Gwen's mouth.
"I can eat it myself," Gwen said helplessly, but still took a bite.
Black Phoenix and Galan ate with oil dripping from their mouths.
Jean and Pamela watched them from the side, making sure they didn't eat the tableware, as both had done so before.
Wanda and Lorna sat together, perhaps due to doing homework, their relationship was good.
Nolan moved between the seats, refilling drinks, but was soon embraced by Nolan and fed.
Venom was still asking Maria some detailed questions.
George looked at everything before him and finally relaxed. It was enough that Gwen was happy now.

[Logan, the three things you must accomplish by returning to the past]
[Find Mystique]
[Convince me and Eric to cooperate]
[Stop the Sentinel project]
[I know these are difficult, but I believe you can do it, Logan.]
Logan's consciousness sank continuously until he saw a light and abruptly opened his eyes.
He lay on a large white bed. Everything in the room was white, gleaming white. Logan sat up and went to the window.
The bustling city streets outside the car window came into view, with heavy traffic and hurried pedestrians.
No war, no Sentinels.
"My God, it really worked."
Logan was still somewhat disbelieving. He picked up the clothes nearby and put them on, intending to find this World's Charles first.
Just as he was about to open the door, Logan's gaze was drawn to a photo on the wall. He slowly walked over.
"I was married before?"
In the photo, he wore a white suit, looking stiff, with a sour expression.
Beside him was a blonde girl in a white wedding dress, holding his arm, her face beaming with a smile.
Logan's eyes were somewhat complex. He looked at the other photos nearby: travel, the beach, concerts.
In those photos, he no longer had a sour expression, but rather more smiles.
Clang!
A metallic clanging sound suddenly rang in his ears.
Startled, Logan extended his claws and glared fiercely behind him.
"Finally scared you this time, hubby~"
The person behind him was wearing white home clothes, holding a spatula, with a mischievous smile on her face.
It was the blonde girl from the photo.
Logan froze for a moment, then retracted his claws.
"Don't do that next time, it's very dangerous."
White Queen looked at him in confusion, then at the photo on the wall, and said,
"Hubby, why are you looking at this? Haven't you always hated me hanging these on the wall?"
"I just suddenly thought of it and took a look. Where are the car keys? I need to go out for something."
Facing the woman who might be his past wife, Logan didn't want to use any rough methods.
"You have to eat breakfast first, even if you have something to do. I've already prepared it."
White Queen turned around, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
Logan didn't notice anything unusual and followed behind her. He needed to find the keys first, but looking at the steaming roasted meat and the whiskey next to it on the table, he swallowed.
How long had it been since he had a decent meal? Eating breakfast wouldn't delay him.
White Queen watched Logan's crude eating.
An enemy who could infiltrate Logan's body so silently under the nose of a master telepath like herself must not be simple. Perhaps it was related to the Black Hand behind the God of Fear before.
To be safe, she'd call more people.
White Queen naturally took out her phone and dialed.
"Hello, good morning, is this the house cleaning company? Yes, we have mice at home. When can you arrive? Good."
After the call, White Queen came and sat down in front of Logan.
"Is the roasted meat I made delicious?"
"Delicious, the best roasted meat I've ever had."
Logan picked up the whiskey nearby and gulped it down in a few mouthfuls, letting out a long sigh.
"If you're not full, there's more in the kitchen. I'll get you another serving," White Queen said with a smile.
Logan seemed to be in a trance for a moment, then shook his head.
"I have important things to do. Where exactly are the car keys?"
"What things?"
"To find Charles and Eric, and stop the birth of the Sentinels."
"Then why use Logan's body?"
"Because I am..."
[Logan...]
Logan suddenly snapped back to reality. He had just been hypnotized.
