Chapter 668 Lost Memories

As far back as Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver can remember, they were Gypsies living in Kosovia.

The Fokosovia War then broke out, mercilessly dragging the two children, who were still minors at the time, into great danger.

The two men will never forget the fear they felt when the Jericho missile fell in front of them that day.

If that missile hadn't unexpectedly become a dud, the two siblings would probably have died in that war long ago.

Yes, the two of them are very lucky.

A man who could control magnetic fields and metals saved them.

Although the man with the same white hair as Quicksilver ultimately only left the two siblings with a glimpse of his back.

It was that tall, imposing figure that led the two children, who had no prior memory of him, to unexpectedly mistake him for a family member.

Then, after making inquiries, the two siblings learned each other's names—Eric.

That is, "Magneto," a powerful mutant.

In the years that followed, the two grown-up children slowly followed Magneto's trail to Apple City.

During this time, the two gradually awakened their respective abilities.

Shortly after arriving in Apple City, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver noticed Tony frequently appearing on the plaza screens, along with the Stark Industries logo he represented.

The same markings were on the Jericho missile that had once appeared on the battlefield and caused the siblings immense fear.

This also brought back the memories of the past for the siblings.

So, the siblings, who had already awakened their superpowers, decided to take revenge on Tony Stark, who created the Jericho missile, while searching for Magneto.

What the siblings didn't expect was that their enemy would actually come to them.

It's fair to say that if Mike hadn't happened to be with Tony today, he would have definitely suffered a great loss.

“Kosovia? I don’t recall Stark Industries selling weapons to Kosovia…” After listening to Scarlet Witch’s explanation, Tony frowned. “I understand now, it must be Obadiah. They’ve been secretly involved in arms smuggling for money.”

This was an unexpected disaster for Tony.

Most importantly, Obadiah is now dead, and it is impossible to verify the circumstances at that time.

"I'm sorry, Stark Industries' weapons caused you so much harm. But I've now shut down the weapons division. I promise you nothing that happened will ever happen again." After explaining the situation, Tony solemnly apologized to the siblings.

After all, Tony, as the leader, couldn't escape responsibility for the stupid things Obadiah did back then.

At the very least, he has to bear the blame for mismanagement.

Therefore, the apology at this time is reasonable.

"Mike, let them go. If they still want revenge, I'll accept it." After thinking everything through, Tony showed the responsibility he should have.

Seeing Tony's open and honest demeanor, Mike finally released the siblings from their restraints. However, as a friend, he remained prepared to come to their rescue at any time.

"Sister, why don't we just let it go?" Quicksilver, now free, went to Scarlet Witch's side and whispered his advice.

The current situation is that the Jericho missile is now a mess, and dwelling on it won't benefit anyone.

Moreover, apart from being frightened at the time, the siblings did not actually suffer any real losses.

Scarlet Witch glanced at Mike standing beside her and realized that getting revenge today would probably be difficult.

With a cold expression, he looked at Tony and said, "You're lucky today. Don't let me see you again."

It's clear that although Scarlet Witch's expression was still not good, she had at least forgave Tony, her enemy.

"What are you planning to do now? Continue searching for Magneto?" After learning about the siblings' experiences, Tony genuinely wanted to offer them some help, so he revealed, "Actually, Michael and I are also searching for traces of mutants, and perhaps we can provide some assistance."

“I don’t need your pretense,” Scarlet Witch immediately refused.

After all, the two sides have not yet reached the point of turning enemies into friends.

Tony's kindness was given at a very inopportune time.

"Can we leave now?" After refusing Tony, Scarlet Witch looked at Mike. The mirror space they were in was completely under Mike's control; even Scarlet Witch's Chaos Power couldn't break the barrier between them and the outside world.

“You can leave whenever you want,” Mike said with a smile. “But before that, I can offer you some practical help regarding your lost memories.”

Mike could vaguely sense that the siblings' minds had been sealed.

Judging from the methods used, the person who placed the seal was quite capable.

“Sister, he doesn’t seem like a bad person. We can let him try. Maybe that memory can help us find clues to our loved ones…” Quicksilver was tempted.

The siblings had already realized that they were different from others, having no childhood memories whatsoever.

Similarly, there is no memory of relatives.

This is why they mistakenly regarded Magneto, who had saved them, as a family member.

"Can you really help us regain our memories?" Scarlet Witch looked at Mike in surprise.

It should be noted that after she awakened the power of chaos, she also tried various methods to restore her memories.

But it hasn't been successful yet.

This feeling of having no past is not good.

“I can only say I’ll do my best; we’ll only know the specific results after the treatment,” Mike said. “Of course, you can also refuse.”

The seal was so strong that it almost completely obscured Mike's senses.

Therefore, before he even started, Mike couldn't guarantee that he could fully restore the siblings' memories.

“Alright, you go ahead. Let me go first…” Mike’s meticulous attitude earned Scarlet Witch some trust.

Moreover, the girl could sense that Mike meant no harm.

To put it another way, even if she ultimately fails to recover that lost memory, she won't suffer any loss.

"Relax and don't resist," Mike said without hesitation.

After gathering holy light in his hands, he placed them on the girl's head.

As the seal was broken, the chaotic power within Scarlet Witch began to go berserk, and a series of complex gray runes appeared above her head.

“My previous guess was right. The one who sealed you was a terrifying being…” Mike explained as he converted the power of holy light into the time power of the Time Stone.

Clearly, the sealing power on the girl cannot be removed by the power of holy light alone.

At least with Mike's current abilities, he can't do that yet.

Therefore, he decided to use his time rewind ability to help the girl reconstruct her lost memories.

As time unfolds, the girl, from a third-person perspective, witnesses her entire life, from birth to being abducted and having her memories sealed away.

It was like rediscovering memories by "watching a movie".

"So Magneto isn't my father after all... the Supreme God of Evil..." Scarlet Witch, having witnessed her own life, went from excitement to anger, and finally fell silent.

It turns out that the chaotic power within her was inherited from her mother, the previous Scarlet Witch.

This ability belonged to her from the very beginning.

It was only when he was noticed by the supreme evil god, a powerful being of a different dimension, that he was captured, studied, and had his memories sealed.

"Is my sister alright?" Quicksilver, clearly sensing that something was wrong with his sister, walked back to Mike.

Tony, who looked very serious, was also by his side.

Previously, when Scarlet Witch's powers went berserk, she sent Quicksilver and Tony flying.

That powerful force was simply superhuman.

This situation inevitably made Tony worry again, wondering if he should develop another set of anti-chaos magic armor.
