'It would seem that I would need to write a diary about myself and create my own identity. There are diary holders, and I have to increase the trust rating of these holders. The higher the trust rating, the better the rewards provided by the system.' Luke thought as he studied the functions of his system. Indeed, Luke is a transmigrator who had unbelievably crossed into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Fortunately, he had awakened his cheat, the 'Diary Entry System'.

[The host is correct.] The system prompted upon Luke's revelations. Luke concluded that his system was rather plain and simple, unlike most other systems he had read in other fanfictions in his original world which had colourful and borderline human personalities.

In Luke's original world, he had seen the Marvel movies and tv shows. With his prior knowledge, he believed that it would not be difficult to create his own identity that would blend into the universe. Furthermore, the system only had three requirements in creating his own identity when writing his diary entries. The first is to write about superheroes, which meant that Luke's chosen identity should be that of a superhero. The second is to write about gradual growth, which meant that Luke could not just write that he was invincible or overpowered right from the start. And the third is to write about realistic and believable content.

The third requirement is directly linked to his system's rewards, as in order to increase the trust rating of the diary holders, it is only rational to write about things that are realistic and believable. However, this also posed a significant challenge for Luke. He believed that the best way to increase the trust rating of these holders was to show that he had a personal relationship with the holders, whether as a friend, colleague, or a romantic interest. Only in this way would these holders believe in what was written in the diary and increase their trust rating towards Luke.

'System, who are the initial holders of the diary?' Luke inquired.

 [Initial holders are; Wanda Maximoff, Natalia Alianovna Romanova, Nicolas Joseph Fury.]

'It would seem that the first three holders are the Scarlet Witch – also known as Wanda Maximoff, the Black Widow – also known as Natasha Romanoff, and the Bald One-Eyed Pira- I mean the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D – also known as the Wholesale Heavily Discounted Kakashi Hat- I mean Nick Fury. Going by the timeline, Tony has not yet been kidnapped, but that time is nearing since today is the Apogee Award ceremony. This would mean that Wanda is most likely in her teens, possibly the age of sixteen. Natasha is already within S.H.I.E.L.D, so no major developments here. And last but not least, Nick Fury, the man who could be considered as paranoid and unbelieving as the legendary Batman himself. He might be the hardest to increase the trust rating.' Luke concluded.

Luke realized that it would not be an easy task to fulfil all three requirements of the system. He would have to consider many different angles and possibilities due to the inclusion of seasoned veteran spies in Natasha and Fury. He would have to create an identity as a superhero while having a relationship with them. Suddenly, Luke had an epiphany.

'That's it! If the requirement is to be a superhero while having a relationship, then am I not staring a gift horse in the mouth?!'

~ At the same time, at the S.H.I.E.L.D Headquarters ~

Nick Fury, the current Director of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, better known as S.H.I.E.L.D, was currently on full alert in his office. He had just returned from a meeting with the current Secretary General of the World Security Council, Alexander Pierce, when he noticed a golden-black diary with the title 'Luke's Diary' on his desk.

"Agent Hill, has anyone stepped foot into my office?" Fury turned to ask the only other occupant in the room.

"No Sir. Since you left for the meeting with the Secretary General and returned, a total of twelve minutes and forty-five seconds has passed. In this time, I have been here, and no one else had entered the premises until you did sir." Agent Maria Hill replied.

"Then explain to me how this diary appeared on my desk." Fury asked as he walked towards the diary and pointed towards it.

As Agent Hill approached, she could not see anything out of the ordinary on the desk, let alone a diary. At this, Agent Hill gave a questioning look towards her superior officer.

Facing her questioning gaze, Fury emphasized, "I'm talking about this diary right here. Are you unable to see it?"

Once again, Agent Hill gave a negative response. At her response, Fury took out a recording device and pointed the camera towards the diary. What he saw completely baffled him. Nothing! There was no diary being shown on the screen of the device! But Fury could clearly see the diary on his desk with his own eyes. He proceeded to administer other tests to determine the threat level and to uncover the mystery of the diary. And all this while, Agent Hill looked at her boss like he had finally lost his second ey-

"I really can't see anything! There is no diary there!" said Pietro Maximoff, exasperated at the behaviour of his youn- older sibling Wanda Maximoff. Although Pietro was the older sibling, one look from Wanda was enough to convince him that he was the younger one.

"Look, if there really is a diary, then my hand should be on the diary and not directly on the palm of your hand." As if to prove a point, Pietro placed his hand at where the supposed diary was.

"Forget it, there's no point in convincing you if you can't see it!" Wanda said as she slapped Pietro's hand away and pointed towards the door.

Pietro could only sigh and look at her helplessly as he heard her response. He felt that his sister was acting a little strange today.
