Chapter 186 Kamar-Taj and 'Brothers'!
Mordo turned around with an expressionless face and bowed slightly to Rorschach.
Then, he walked down the stone stairs without saying a word.
Rorschach hesitated with his eyes narrowed.
He still stepped forward.
He gently pushed the heavy wooden door in front of him with a huge fist covered with red armor.
Squeak——
With a slight sound of the door hinge turning, the heavy wooden door in front of him slowly opened.
Rorschach looked through the open doorway.
At first glance, I saw one sitting in the middle of the room.
A tall, thin figure was washing and soaking tea utensils at a low wooden table.
At this moment, a faint light just penetrated the gap in the window above the room.
It hit the opponent's round bald head at an angle.
Just above the other person's almost reflective white skin and tall, straight nose.
A pair of dark eyes as bright and deep as the shining stars seemed to have never been affected by Rorschach's arrival.
"Coffee? Tea? Or just hot water?"
The tall, thin figure in a white robe raised his chin.
She asked Rorschach in a gentle tone.
Rorschach, whose expression had become much stiffer, took a deep breath.
He slowly drove the Hunter Armor into the spacious room.
Wait until he is ten meters away from the other party.
Rorschach, blinking repeatedly, suddenly stopped.
He said respectfully to the tall and thin figure:
"Hello, Master Ancient One, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Master Gu Yi smiled.
She gently picked up an empty teacup with her slender fingers.
He whispered to the solemn Rorschach,
"Young man, you can come a little closer. The mages of Kamar-Taj are not cannibals from the snowy mountains. I won't eat you."
"Well..."
Maybe it was Master Ancient One's sense of humor.
Or maybe the keen animal instinct simply sensed the other person's kind attitude.
Rorschach's nerves and mood, which had been tense from the beginning, suddenly relaxed a lot.
He exhaled slowly from his mouth.
Driving the Hunter Armor, he stepped forward.
Then, Rorschach carefully sat down opposite the low wooden table and looked at Master Ancient One.
At this moment, Master Ancient One, with a smile on her face, tilted her head and looked at Rorschach,
and she casually placed the teacup in front of Rorschach.
Once again repeating the previous question:
"Coffee, tea? Or hot water?"
"Tea is fine."
Rorschach, who was sitting upright, quickly replied.
Master Ancient One smiled and nodded slightly.
She raised two slender white fingers and snapped them skillfully.
Pah!
The next second, the empty teacup in front of Rorschach suddenly filled with steaming hot tea.
Rorschach widened his eyes slightly.
He was not much surprised by this.
Because the bald woman opposite is the famous Supreme Mage.
"Even though I'm old, I still like to show off in front of young people..."
Master Gu Yi slowly lowered his white hands and blinked his deep dark eyes.
She said to Rorschach with a smile.
"Master Ancient One...why on earth are you looking for me?"
Rorschach swallowed and reached out to hold the hot teacup.
But he never had any desire to drink tea.
"Rorschach, huh? You don't have to be too nervous. I'm not interested in what you do in the mortal world. And personally, I admire what you do..."
"Everyone's destiny may change, or it may not change. Perhaps change is always better than staying the same."
"Of course, you have to learn to stop killing and control your anger occasionally. If you want to learn, I can have someone teach you a simple method of meditation. This is not a magician's secret, so ordinary people can master it quickly."
Master Gu Yi casually picked up his own teacup.
She took a sip of the hot tea that had been filled to the brim at some point, and spoke softly to the expressionless Rorschach.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and forced a smile, breaking the stiff muscles on his face.
He said to Master Ancient One with a serious expression:
"Thank you for your understanding and your kindness... If Kamar-Taj needs me for anything, you can give me instructions."
"Young man, perhaps you are still confused now, and you are on guard and think that I must want you to do something... But you guessed wrong. It is not me who wants to see you, but your 'brother' who repeatedly asked Kamar-Taj to look for your trace."
"This is also one of the reasons why I had to use divination to find you..."
Master Ancient One spoke to Rorschach with a gentle expression.
However, after hearing the words of Master Gu Yi.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and frowned slightly.
He said with a hesitant look:
"Brother? Master Ancient One, I don't have any brothers..."
"That friend from Asgard, Thor, the heir to Asgard, doesn't think so... He said you are the bravest mortal warrior he has ever seen, and you saved his life, so you are his mortal brother."
Master Ancient One suddenly blinked his dark and bright eyes at Rorschach in a slightly playful manner.
"."
The next moment, his mouth opened and closed several times.
Rorschach, who was unable to utter a complete sentence, finally let out a deep sigh.
"I knew it."
Afterwards, he pondered for a moment, stared at Master Gu Yi and asked:
"Since Thor has found Kamar-Taj, even if there are problems inside Asgard, can't you solve any problem by taking action yourself?"
"I'm just an ordinary mortal. I'm afraid I can't help you much, right?"
However, Rorschach hadn't finished his words.
Suddenly, a delicate and small white folding fan appeared out of thin air in Master Gu Yi's slightly raised palm.
Her slender white fingertips kept playing with the wooden handle of the folding fan.
A pair of deep eyes looked at Rorschach with a slightly frown, and said lightly:
"Perhaps you can't understand, but as the Supreme Sorcerer, my duty does not allow me to stay away from Midgard, that is, Earth... The relationship between Asgard and Earth is much closer than you think. Most of my apprentices are not very capable, and Thor always looks down on these mages. Therefore, I have to find you, a mortal friend who has truly won Thor's recognition."
"Rorschach, you will serve as the messenger of Midgard and help the heir of Asgard, Thor, return to his kingdom... This will be a great thing for both you and Midgard."
"Can I refuse?"
Rorschach gritted his teeth and took a deep breath.
He asked Master Gu Yi, whose expression gradually became serious.
"Of course you can... But when the Asgardian invasion army with a new master arrives in Midgard, you and your friends will have to pay a greater price to resist a terrifying army that has conquered the Nine Realms... And according to the ancient covenant, the wizards of Kamar-Taj cannot intervene in this war."
"That means... I don't actually have the right to refuse, right?"
After being silent for a moment, Rorschach slowly opened his blue wolf eyes.
He grinned at Master Ancient One.
The fangs that he tried to hide were revealed.
"Master Ancient One, where is Thor?"
"I'm going to beat him up first... After all, I'm his half-brother!"

Thank you for your support!
There will also be some monsters and demons as enemies.
Another thing is that the Emperor is not the protagonist's nanny. He has his own ideas and positions.
Later, there will be some major events that will showcase the Emperor's ruthless nature.
