Chapter 514: Marvel: Starting by Awakening the Small Universe Chapter 274

There are also levels to churches for baptism.

And St. Mark's Church, with its long history, might not be the best baptism church, but it is definitely one of the top-ranked churches in Manhattan.

The most important point.

Hawk then smiled at Felicia: "Wow, my godson, then I'll have to seriously think about what kind of gift to give my godson when I go back."

Felicia smiled: "Yes, you really should think about it, Hawk, after all, that's what I'm here for."

Peter, on the side, heard this and looked at Hawk.

"Hawk, she's jok..."

"Peter..."

Hawk looked at Peter, who was hurriedly explaining, interrupted him, and smiled at him: "Please, relax, today is your big day; you have a son, and I have a godson, congratulations, Peter."

Hearing this, Peter looked at Felicia and his son still in swaddling clothes, smiling shyly.

Hawk and Gwen stayed in the hospital for a while longer, and after Ben Hawk Parker yawned and fell asleep, they hugged Peter and Felicia again before leaving.

After leaving the hospital.

Gwen looked at Hawk with some curiosity: "Weren't you planning to tell Peter that I got my doctorate to make him envious?"

Hawk started the car and headed toward Palm Street.

"Not today!"

"Today should be a happy day for Peter."

"He deserves to have this day."

Hawk glanced at Gwen sideways.

Today was also a happy day for him.

Not because Peter asked him to be Ben Hawk Parker's godfather, but because he had changed the life of the Spider-person, which was originally filled with tragedy.

This gave him a great sense of accomplishment.

Not the kind of accomplishment from an increase in his own strength, but a sense of accomplishment from a deep, inexplicable satisfaction within his soul.

Gwen smiled, hearing Hawk's words, and thought of Peter, whose parents and Uncle Ben had passed away, thinking Hawk was referring to that, and nodded in agreement.

"Hawk."

"Hmm."

"You are actually a very kind person."

"I know."

Hearing this, Hawk glanced sideways at Gwen, who was watching him with a smile, and replied with a smile.

He had always believed he was a kind person.

To be honest, since Hawk started, although he had killed many people, he dared to pat his chest and say he had never killed an innocent passerby.

Every one of his battles was fought as far away from cities and crowds as possible.

Without exception.

Unlike those superheroes who seem to run wherever there are the most people.

Hawk was different.

This might be because he had once been rained on, so he chose to hold an umbrella for those who came after.

So!

Hmm.

He was very kind.

After returning to Palm Street, Hawk and Gwen didn't go home immediately; instead, when passing St. Mark's Church, they got out of the car, found the priest, and inquired about the baptism schedule.

For a large church like St. Mark's, there is almost a baptism every day, and some parents even start booking while they are still pregnant.

Because baptism also has a time limit.

Usually, a baptism should be arranged within a few weeks or three months after the baby is born; after all, the earlier the baptism, the sooner the newborn baby's original sin can be forgiven by God.

After flipping through the baptism appointment register, the priest found April 25th of next month as the baptism date, since Hawk was considered a major client of the church.

After Hawk donated a sum of money to St. Mark's, he walked out of the church and called Peter to let him know.

As the baby's parents, Peter and Felicia needed to take a preparation course before the baptism.

Hawk didn't need to.

He was a member of the St. Paul's Church choir; let alone baptism, even for sermons, he could start working without any training.

No choice.

Being an orphan with a younger sister, trying to make a living at the church, the only thing he could do was to make himself appear as pious as possible.

Just like Samael before he became Lucifer Morningstar, he was the most pious one in front of God.

After hanging up the phone, Hawk raised an eyebrow, as if thinking of something, and looked at Gwen on the side: "Do you think Peter ran out of money, which is why he asked me to be his son's godfather, so I would pay for my godson's baptism?"

The sacrament is actually free and doesn't require any fees.

After all, baptism is sacred.

But the church has operating costs, and supporting the church cannot be called charging; it can only be called a donation.

The operating cost for one sacrament at St. Mark's Church is about two thousand.

Hearing this, Gwen laughed, opened the car door, looked at Hawk, who had walked to the driver's side, and said while sitting in: "A godfather baptizing his godson is his responsibility; you can choose not to be Ben Hawk Parker's godfather."

After Hawk closed the car door, he smiled slightly and looked at Gwen: "That won't do, the Hawk in Ben Hawk Parker is my Hawk; only I can be his godfather, no one else has that qualification."

The most important reason was still Peter.

Just as he had always said, among the three versions of Spider-people, his favorite was the first-generation Spider-person.

So...

Hawk restarted the car and looked at Gwen: "What gift do you think I should give my godson?"

Gwen glanced at Hawk's expression and smiled.

"You already have an idea, don't you."

"Yes."

Hawk nodded. After Peter said he wanted him to be his son's godfather, Hawk already had a rough idea for a gift.

Gwen was curious.

"What gift?"

"It's..."

Just as Hawk was about to speak, Gwen's phone rang abruptly.

Gwen said "wait a moment," took out her phone, and glanced at it: "It's a call from Mom."

Hawk raised an eyebrow: "She's probably asking about your doctorate."

Gwen said "hmm," answered the phone, and was just about to tell her mother, Helen, the good news that she had received her doctorate.

The next second.

Helen's voice, filled with tears, came through.

"Gwen, come to the hospital quickly."

"Your father has been shot and is in emergency surgery."

"Come quickly!"

"..."
