Wanda decided to stop for now because honestly, they wouldn't be able to kill each other, so it wouldn't hurt hearing him out to stop this.
" If you promise to destroy current Darkholds across the multiverse, I can conjure a magic that can locate any soul wave despite their location. You understand what that means, right?"
Wanda fell into silence, contemplating what she should do now since he didn't seem to be lying. Besides, he was offering what she wanted in the first place for a reasonable price.
" How can I trust you?"
Arthur didn't hesitate to draw a magic circle in front of her which created a golden string that somehow went into the time and space barrier. Furthermore, he also gave them the device that could help her locate him if she agreed with him.
Wanda took the device with a cold face, examining it with her magic, and found this thing wasn't tempered. Moreover, he didn't lie to her as he guaranteed the rate with his power.
Hence, she didn't hesitate to burn the book in her hands as she raised her head to match his eyes. She nodded to acknowledge the deal, prompting the battle to be over between them for now.
" The string and device will guide you to their souls but beware of others. You know what I am saying right?"
Wanda nodded with a solemn face, clutching the items in her hands while knowing this wouldn't be an easy journey. Nonetheless, she took what she wanted in the first place, so she freed Chavez.
" You weren't trying to kill her. You were trying to save her with your magic, weren't you?"
Strange asked her with a calm voice as Wanda halted her movement. She turned her head around, looking at him with a serene expression that reassured his heart.
" I wasn't."
Two words escaped from her mouth while she warped to another reality where she would find her sons.
The fleeting moment of silence came between the trio as other Strange appeared with his real body but they could see corrosion on his body. The dark purple spots appeared on his arms, showing he was tainted by the dark arts.
" Is it the end? Should I go back to my universe?"
Chavez clenched her fists, thinking she would be traveling the multiverse to find her hoke. However, the heroes weren't having that thought.
" You can stay, child. I believe this world can become a good home like they can become your new family. Don't you agree Strange?"
Arthur smiled at Strange who was scratching his head with an awkward look because he didn't know how to say it to her but thankfully Arthur did that.
" Can I stay?"
Chavez opened her eyes wide with a surprise, hugging them like a koala bear. She even wrapped her legs around Strange who silently asked a help from Wong.
Wong acted feign to his plea, thinking it was a good idea to let him suffer for a moment before separating her.
" What about you guys? You stopped multiple disasters across the world. Surely some beings would start noticing you."
Wong didn't imagine what kind of creatures would be aiming at them since they proved their might and specialty. Hence, many malevolent and benevolent beings would be tempted to go to their universe.
" We will observe for now. But I don't think our worlds are going to be safe since fate is already moving.
Sooner or later we will face the worst beings in our reality."
Strange replied calmly, knowing the storm was coming toward them whether they liked it or not.
Meanwhile in their universe.
" You dare to covet what belonged to me, girl. You think your mere presence would stop me?"
A tall man lifted Nyssa from her neck, smirking with a cold face. The stench of blood hit her nose as she looked at her massacred kin on the floor.
" You are willing to sacrifice us to take control of our world? Do you think heroes will agree with your view?"
The man snorted at her naive remark, showing his large fang to remind her who he was.
" Believe me. Your little backer will soon face my wrath as you shall."
He threw her to the wall ,signaling his men to imprison her in the dungeon where she would wait for her pathetic end.
