I can also turn into that hairy-chested guy you hate the most. Believe it or not!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali pouted, clenched her tiny fists, and waved them in protest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Shit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine suddenly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Gali looked like an adorable girl, her appearance was deceptive. To other beings, she might look different—but when it came to power, she could really transform into a bulky man with chest hair and a beard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought of a big, hairy guy sitting gently on his chest, staring down at him affectionately…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Hiss!!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just imagining it made his skin crawl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Gali, who had a slightly embarrassed expression, twitched, and couldn't help complaining,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sometimes you're really 'uncute'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph! Who told you to call me little?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali shook her head and huffed dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then what 'are' you, exactly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine sighed. This girl is clearly overpowered but acts way too moody.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'Girl!'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali replied coquettishly without hesitation. \"Gali is a girl! Not 'Little Girl'. I am just a 'Girl'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, a girl is a girl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine glanced at her dumbfounded expression and silently muttered in his heart,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'If you're a girl, then shouldn't you feel a little guilty? Wait—no, no, stop overthinking! If Galactus finds out I've been flirting with his daughter, I'm done for!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What time is it now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trying to change the subject, Blaine attempted to get up—but he was pinned under Gali and couldn't move. He could only rely on his intuition; it still felt early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five in the morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali rolled her big eyes and replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only five?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine shot her a look. Waking someone this early on a rest day should be a crime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he wasn't working or at school, he liked to sleep in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's still early. Go back to sleep, 'girl'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He deliberately emphasized the last word, then pulled Gali onto his chest in retaliation, hugged her tightly, closed his eyes, and prepared to drift off again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'You treat me like a pillow? Then I'll treat you like one too. Fair game!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had specially bought Gali a one-piece dinosaur pajama set last night. After all, he couldn't let her sleep in a dress—or worse, naked. Regardless of whether Blaine could handle that, Gali probably wouldn't want it either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had to admit, this version of Gali was very cute—soft, naive-looking, and comfortable to cuddle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn't tall at all, basically a perfect-sized throw pillow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali snorted proudly, pulled out a planet from her watch, popped it into her mouth, then wriggled into a comfortable position in Blaine's arms and went back to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine slept with her like that until nine in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he woke up again, Gali was no longer lying on him. Instead, she was sitting up and gnawing on a planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aw~~~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine stretched lazily and yawned. \"Gali, go wash up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't need to wash,\" Gali muttered. \"Even if I don't bath for tens of thousands of years, I'd still be cleaner than you mortals!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be fair, that was probably true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Gali's physique, she wouldn't accumulate bacteria or dirt like normal humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human grime was mostly just waste, dead skin cells, and some external dust—none of which applied to Gali.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So yeah, she was definitely clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine smirked. \"Well, I'm going to wash. You stinky little girl, eating planets all day and not caring about hygiene.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, with his level of physical enhancement, it was hard for dust or dirt to cling to him too. But washing up had become a habit over the years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn't wash his face or shower, he just 'felt' dirty. Probably psychological.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rotte—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali cut him off quickly when she heard that word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Blaine scratched his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Cough cough…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl in the little dinosaur pajamas suddenly realized her reaction was too exaggerated. She crossed her arms and raised her chin proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you help me wash, I 'might' agree to it reluctantly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine rolled his eyes and chuckled helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Damn. Did I really spend 500 million to raise a little gremlin?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali waved her hand and bounced toward the bathroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What followed was their morning routine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine brushed his teeth and washed his face, then helped Gali wipe hers and do other basic cleaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Gali couldn't get dirty, Blaine still took it seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, brushing teeth counted as part of washing—and thanks to Blaine's offhand comment, Gali ended up spending three times longer brushing her teeth than cleaning her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All done! Let's go have breakfast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blaine gave Gali a light pat on the butt. \"Afterwards, I'll take you to the villa.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the last mission was done, and with Gali here, he wasn't planning to take on new tasks just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to spend a few days showing her around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to fun, his hometown mostly offered online games. But his villa in the Manhattan suburbs had better options: golf courses, horse riding, open green spaces—definitely more refreshing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they were going to play, they might as well do it properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm-hmm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gali nodded and hopped into the kitchen to make breakfast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprised?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, even though she ate planets, she was still willing to try Earth food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, planets had no taste—just cosmic energy. She only ate them to suppress her hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to 'flavor', Earth's delicacies were far more suited to little Gali's taste buds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(PS: There'll be a few light-hearted daily life chapters before we dive into the Avengers storyline.
