Chapter 32: Travel
The next day, we had a sumptuous breakfast that Aunt Helen cook and we drive Krista to the University. I parked the car on the parking lot and said goodbye to both of them. Krista will continue her studies in medicine and Aunt Helen is working on a nearby restaurant as she said, she will have a long vacation here.
She wants to get her own apartment to not avoid disturbing but Krista and I insists to live with us as she is a great cook and Krista to have a company whenever I have tasks.
I left the car with Krista as she was the one who uses it often and it's not like I need a car to travel. I said I have a task that will require a couple of weeks before I come back.
Walking on the city of New York looking at everything, I will miss the Avengers but I need more strength to get ready to fight in the infinity war. I remember Dr. Strange peeking at the future to see if we will have a chance to beat the Mad Titan.
As I was walking, my surroundings suddenly change, everything is like crystals and then became mirrors.
I didn't panic as I know the person who wants to meet me, a sparking portal in front of me revealed itself. The mirror dimension is just in cased I panicked and begun fighting in the middle of the city.
The is a person in front of me wearing a yellow clothes like a monk but the quality is very good, she looks peaceful, I mean the Ancient One, drinking her tea while waiting for me.
' her head is so smooth, is it real that the more bald a person the powerful a person gets' I stoped my thoughts as this sorcerer can guess my thoughts just from her experience and intelligent.
" you're thinking of something rude, young traveler" she looks at me with inquisitive eyes.
I can't read her thoughts so I just go with the flow, it's not like I can beat someone like her older than everyone except the Eternals and Wenwu.
" First of all Its not rude to use my own brain but it's if it happen that you read peoples mind and second I am not traveler, I am kidnap or slap unconscious until I woke up here. I am not complaining to anyone and I liked it here that my previous life." I know that she wants to know something about how I get here but I am also curious.
Ancient One still has no major expression " I've been meaning to have a talk to you about your purpose here in this world but you've been very low-profile "
She continued " you seems to not be surprised to meet me?"
I rolled my eyeballs at her " I know this world is different, what more a sorcerer who can do any kinds of powerful tricks."
" I just know that I am from Earth similar to this but not much change maybe I'm from parallel universe."
" So what is your purpose now? You're faith and future can be read like others but what you do was always disorderly and in disarray. Will you be a threat to this realm like others from other other dimension?" I didn't know Ancient One will go directly to the that topic.
" woah woah woah, hold it right there. I don't have that much ambition to become the Almighty One, I still prefer to be normal with superhuman capabilities so I can protect my priorities and I am not like the others from different dimension as I said I'm also from Earth similar to this so I will protect this world in my own way" i had to get her off my back and not supervised me like the damn UN full of hypocrites politicians.
Ancient One thought of something " If you consider yourself as a protector of this world, will you join us and become a sorcerer?"
' so this is your purpose, what a cunning old woman' i thought but voiced my other thoughts " I know I have superhuman physique that is very suitable for sorcery but I don't like studying right now, maybe in the future I'll think about it." She seems to already know my answer.
" I've been meaning to ask, can I have offspring or it will take me a long time you know?" I suddenly got curious about myself.
Ancient One just look at me not saying anything, this is frustrating. " okay, in exchange for this question, I will tell you a name suitable and powerful enough to learn your sorcery."
" Equal exchange, clever. My answer to your question would be, why don't you try to other woman that's also on your favour." This Ancient One did not give him a real answer but I still have to follow the equal exchange.
" Her name is Wanda, beautiful but dangerous so it's up to you to convince her, oh she's in prison right now ." I told her Wanda's name to teach Wanda control her powers instead of her powers controlling her to become the dangerous and threatening Scarlet Witch.
I've been drinking her tea since I sat down ask if she's willing to give me some of those leaves? Well Ancient One is not a miser and she gives me a box full of those tea leaves. I thanked her and promised I will not caused too much trouble to this world.
She send me back to where I disappear and I continue walking. ' I hope she doesn't have to supervise me for long, well she needs to focus on the injured Dr. Strange, if she can convince Wanda it's great to have her a classmate like Dr. Strange.'
I go back to the hotel leaves the box of tea leaves and just take some small amount to drink later on my journey.
I flew to loot in other country with the help of my butler A.I Keeper. " Hey Keeper, find some politicians who have participated in some evil organisations." Keeper gave me information of dirty politicians and filter the names leaving only names that really needed to be punish but get away with it because they have money and power.
I flew to the nearest target and when I look at the mansion, ' this damn asshole is having a party, this will be difficult.'
