American comics: From Hogwarts to God on Earth

Chapter 525 Wanda, do you want a husband?

Rune released the Fallen Ones as required by the contract and then immediately teleported to the Shanghai Sanctuary.

The Scarlet Witch was lying on the ground covered in blood, with many white feathers scattered around her, clearly having gone through a fierce battle. However, the fact that she still had the leisure to smoke showed that Wanda was not in any serious condition.

Upon seeing Rune's arrival, Wanda was still in the mood to joke, "I think I saw an angel."

This statement startled Rune so much that he immediately went to her side to check her condition. Westerners saying they saw angels is the same as Chinese people saying they saw their grandmother. He didn't dare to ask Wanda whether she had really seen those birdmen or was just hallucinating from being about to die.

As Rune guessed, Wanda's injuries only looked serious; in reality, they weren't a big problem.

"What, the little boy's all grown up, trying to take advantage of his older sister?" Look at Wanda's words, she still has the mind to joke.

Rune sighed. "I don't date women who already have someone they love, especially a powerful and dangerous mage like you."

Rune had one more thing to say: it's estimated that in the entire Marvel Universe, the only man who could withstand Scarlet Witch's power—or rather, the only man who would dare to be with Scarlet Witch—is Vision.

Despite her beauty, Wanda is incredibly mad in both the comics and the movies. She is extremely powerful, but also very prone to losing control. If anything happens to her husband, father, or even her sons, there is a very high chance that she will go insane.

In comparison, even the raven could be considered emotionally stable.

Wanda, of course, had no idea what Rune was thinking, so she simply feigned indifference, saying, "It seems I've completely aged. I can't even attract a young man like you with your head full of hormones. I wonder if the Vision you're going to find for me will still be infatuated with me?"

Forehead----

Rune thought for a moment, unsure how to answer, because he had long forgotten that he was supposed to find Wanda a Vision who had lost his wife. But it wasn't too late, thankfully she had reminded him.

However, Rune had a premonition that the next universe he was to travel to was just around the corner, and perhaps Wanda's next husband was in this universe.

"Since you're alright, why did you say you saw an angel?"

"Your attempt to change the subject is so lame!" Wanda complained, but ultimately answered Rune's question, "Literally, I fought an archangel—if he's not lying. We were evenly matched, and after a while, he was pulled back by another angel."

"I thank you on behalf of Wang and the others." Rune sighed. He knew that these few words glossed over Wanda's efforts. After all, in this universe, which person connected with God is an easy person?

Whether it's a fallen one, a demon like Lucifer, or an angel like Michael or Gabriel, or even a mortal like Constantine, if they were to encounter them, even Rune himself would have a headache.

"If you really want to thank me, then hurry up and find me a husband." Wanda took another puff of her cigarette, but Rune stepped forward and stubbed it out.

"It's bad for your health, don't smoke."

Wanda rolled her eyes and muttered something about male chauvinism, but didn't relight it.

"That archangel claims to be Gabriel, right?" Rune asked, and sure enough, Wanda nodded.

Gabriel in the DC Universe has two personalities. When facing Superman and Batman, Gabriel is rather rigid. His actions are primarily guided by the rules of Heaven and the will of God, rather than by his personal likes and dislikes.

However, in Constantine's worldview, Gabriel is a genuine evil god. Especially in the movie, he believes that humans can go to heaven simply by repenting after committing evil deeds, which is extremely unfair to ordinary people who do not do evil.

Therefore, he attempted to test and screen humanity by creating immense disasters and suffering, hoping to force out the greatness and spirit of sacrifice that humanity might display in extreme environments, thereby proving that humanity deserves God's love. For this, he even went so far as to summon Mammon to earth.

The former was alright, but the Gabriel that Constantine was facing would never allow a human mage to set up a shield for Earth that could effectively increase the difficulty for Hell and Heaven to intervene in human affairs.

It seems that the archangel who dragged Gabriel back to Heaven was Michael. Michael was relatively easier to talk to; he and Lucifer were brothers with similar strength, but Michael never harbored any disloyal intentions.

He firmly believed in God's greatness and therefore did not allow other angels to disobey God's will and arbitrarily kill God's creations, which of course included humankind.

Now that God is missing, and without God's will, and without humanity violating the order of Heaven, Michael will not allow Gabriel to kill humans.

Thus, the powerful being who came to the Eternal Rock Sanctuary to prevent the shield from being generated was a Fallen One, the powerful being who went to the Shanghai Sanctuary was Gabriel, and the powerful being who went to the Gotham Sanctuary must be a Greek god.

This put Rune at ease. The Doctor of Fate, who was stationed in Gotham Sanctuary, was very familiar with the Greek gods, and with the help of the other Kamar-Taj sorcerers, they should be able to turn the danger into safety.

Therefore, Rune solemnly promised that as long as he encountered a Vision who had lost Wanda, he would bring him back to Scarlet Witch and bring the two together.

The Scarlet Witch was silent for a moment. She subconsciously wanted to put the cigarette butt in her mouth, but then remembered that Rune had already put it out. So she threw the cigarette away in annoyance.

"Rune, do you think I'm being too greedy?" Wanda asked softly, staring at the ceiling. Her expression was almost unbearable to look at. "I've found my son, and—and gained another apprentice, and now I'm hoping for another Vision—"

Her voice was choked with sobs, and her eyes were filled with tears, but she wiped them away with her sleeve in the next moment.

Only now did Rune realize that Wanda was ultimately a tragic figure; she had lost her husband, her child, and even her comrades-in-arms in trying to win back her child.

"No," Rune denied Wanda, "No one has the right to stop someone from pursuing a happier future, provided that the path does not violate morality or harm others."

Rune fell silent as he said this.

During this period, or rather—since the time he transmigrated, Rune seemed to have never stopped. At first, in order to survive, he practiced spells and shapeshifting diligently. Later, after becoming powerful, he suddenly learned of the existence of the Forgotten Ones. After that, he engaged in endless research and training, all for the sake of surviving in the future.

But on this path, did he overlook many things?

For example, Clark, the Jonathans, and Raven?
