Noah POV :
Whew what a day! I broke out of my prison, teleported into the Marvel Universe then blew up some guy in an iron man wanna be suit. Also had a nice spar against the Ancient One. Well... I said a nice spar but that women threw an entire skyscraper on my head! And that's was just for a spar! Imagine what would she do in a real fight! ...Is that why she was never seen teaching any students personally other than Strange in the movie? O well not my problem. Those people joined the bald one's cult on their own accord.
Anyway, where were we? Oh yeah! Next i taught a "bunch of rude people who appeared out of nowhere and began talking shit" a lesson. I swear there's something wrong with these people! They see a two meter tall dude shredded out of his mind like a Baki character and the first thing they do is to pick up a fight with the poor unknown handsome person whos just minding his own business !? I let them off easy if you ask me!!
As I continued on monologuing, the portal closed behind me. And I found myself in a spacious room with a nice large bed while the rest of the room is furnished in some kind of eastern décor. But what caught my eye wasn't that. It was the table for two with a steaming Yixing teapot resting in the center and empty cups on each side.
"Neet!! they got tea in here. Don't mind if i do " i exclaimed in delight before sitting down and pouring a cup for myself
(Sniff) (Sniff)
" Nice aroma. I wonder what kind of tea is this "
"Who goes there ?!!" i asked in a cold tone while scanning the entire room.
But after some time i ended up finding nothing and so my suspicion Bar went down .
"Must have been the wind" i declared as switched my attention to the cup in my hand .
(Gulp)
I downed the entire cup in one go
"There's even honey in there!! I'll have to go for another round then."
(Gulp)
"Another!"
(Gulp)
"Another!!"
(Gulp)
"Another!!!"
(Gulp)
"Another!!!!"
I did this for a few minutes thinking I'd eventually empty the teapot, but upon closer inspection. I discovered that the teapot is magically (literally) refilling itself every time I emptied it.
I set the teapot down, and after a moment, steam began to seep out signaling that it was ready to be used again.
"Magic, magic, magic. It's such an amazing ability to be able to manipulate time and control space . Even Yours Truly, while trapped in that godforsaken place for more then ten millennium, could only train space power and came nowhere near mastering time power; after all, that place had an almost non-existent time cycle ."
(Pouring sound)
(Gulp)
"Nonetheless i should try to learn magic while i'm here it might come in handy later on the future. "
"Then how about you learn from me Mr Noah ?" a feminine voice spoke to me so i turned around found the ancient one walking through the doorway and toward the table .
"Eyyy ancient one !! What took you so long ?" i asked while waving my empty cup .
"I had a few things to take care of before I could join you" She answered while sitting and pouring herself a cup.
( Pouring Sounds)
(Sip)
( Pouring Sounds)
(Gulp)
We both drank our tea quietly for a few moments before the ancient one placed her cup on the table and resumed talking.
"As I stated previously, if you are interested in learning the way of mystic art, I would be delighted to teach you personally."
After hearing her offer, I placed my cup on the table as well than looked into her eye and replied.
" I'm pretty sure you wouldn't offer to teach me out of the goodness of your heart, so spit it out what you want in return, ancient one."
The ancient one returned my stare, smiled slightly, and replied
"Good. You caught on quickly"
(Sip)
" I would like you to become one of the masters of mystic art in Kamar-Taj " the ancient one declared .
With a blank face i said "Give me a second" while rising my index finger
(pouring sounds)
(Gulp)
" Fuck No!!"
When she heard my response, the corner of her mouth twitched, then after taking another sip of her cup she continued.
"Last I checked, no one is better than the sorcerer supreme at teaching mystic arts, so Mr Noah would like to enlighten me to why you would refuse my offer ?"
"Because I've been imprisoned and tortured for shenron knows how long, and now that I'm free, the last thing I'll want to do is to sit in butfuck nowhere teaching bunch of people i don't care about how to fight or guarding some dusty forbidden corner of this place. Magic is cool and all but there is no way in hell i'm staying here because of it."
The ancient pondered upon my response while taping the table then after few moments she gazed back at me then spoke .
"Then how about you join as an affiliate master ?"
"I'm listening" I said while crossing both of my arms.
"You wouldn't have to teach a class or perform any of the responsibilities that a normal master must do. You'll be provided with food and shelter, and you'll be free to leave whenever you want. In exchange, all you'll have to do is deal with the annoying things that pop up from time to time, mostly fights and so."
"Let me clarify. You'll supply me with food and shelter, and all I'll have to do is fight people?" i asked
"Yes" the ancient one replied
"Hell yeah lady, that all you had to say!! Where do i sign ?"
"Funny you asked"
(Poof)
The ancient one waved her hand and a contract and a pen appeared on the table .
"just sign here and we good to go "
The ancient one pointed at the bottom left of the contract .
Without even reading the contract i took the pen and began writing my signature.
(writing sounds ) (writing sound )
after i was done i placed the pen down and shook the ancient one hand .
"Good doing business with ancient one" i said
"Likewise Mr Noah " She replied
Both of these people are shaking each other hand with a slight smile on their face, but deep down they both thinking the same thing .
"Like stealing candy from a kid "
And that's how the two strongest being on earth ended up making a deal .
