Marvel Person: You call this a sorcerer?

Chapter 75 You Are the Only One

In any case, all of this was too far away for Ronan.

He didn't even fully understand high school physics, yet he wanted to study more challenging topics like the universe.

It was really difficult for him.

He can only now retract all the thoughts he has let out.

Because he hadn't forgotten the purpose of his visit today.

"Teacher, what about this Space Stone?"

Ronan raised his left hand.

On this wireless glove, the Space Stone is emitting a faint glow.

Gu nodded, leading Ronan to a deeper location.

There, the familiar stone slabs were still there, but this time there were no murals, but instead, text.

These characters are actually Sanskrit, which is quite rare.

Even in that great Eastern country, Sanskrit has disappeared from daily life.

"This is."

Ronan looked at the Sanskrit on the stone slab and began to read its meaning little by little.

He must understand Sanskrit.

Because many of the texts in Kamar-Taj are written in Sanskrit, if you don't understand it, you'll have to use Google to search and translate them.

But when it comes to translation, there are always times when words fail to convey the meaning.

Therefore, from the time Ronan was very young, the Ancient One included Sanskrit in one of his courses.

"This records the process by which the first Sorcerer Supreme, Agamotto, subdued the six Infinity Stones."

"Previously, these were all passed down orally, until a Supreme Master decided to record them on stone tablets."

"For future His Holiness the Dharma Master to view."

Gu Yi looked at the words above; the last time she had seen them was hundreds of years ago.

But for Ronan, it was a completely new experience.

The inscription on the stone tablet is mostly about the founder, Agamotto, and tells the story of his search for the six Infinity Stones and his contributions to saving humanity.

Only in the last part were the most crucial points written out.

Ultimately, after averting a crisis for humanity, Agamotto decided to return the six Infinity Stones to the universe.

However, he kept the Time Stone within.

According to the rules he set, the Sorcerer Supreme's duty is to protect the Earth.

If you had the Time Stone, you could prevent future crises from happening in advance.

But when Agamotto returned the remaining five stones, he suddenly discovered that each Infinity Stone seemed to possess a very faint consciousness.

Simply put, these gems will protect themselves when they encounter danger.

But that's it.

Although this consciousness is very weak and more of an instinct, Agamotto judged that perhaps one day in the future, these Infinity Stones might actually develop consciousness.

Therefore, from then on, Agamotto established the rules.

Aside from the Time Stone, Kamar-Taj will not allow the collection of any Infinity Stones.

Because once one of the gems develops consciousness, no one can say for sure what kind of impact it will have on other gems of the same type.

Therefore, for safety reasons, Kamar-Taj only retains the Time Stone.

Ronan was stunned when he saw this.

Since the founder Agamotto set the rules, why didn't the Ancient One tell him?

Or perhaps, I brought him here today just to tell him this?

"Although the founder of Agamotto set this rule, there is actually another passage that the Sorcerer Supreme, who was in charge of carving, did not carve."

Gu Yi smiled and pointed to the stone slab.

Ronan didn't understand what it meant, so he looked at it carefully again from top to bottom.

Is there something you need?

The stone slab is covered with inscriptions detailing Agamotto's deeds.

That won't do.

Was it because there weren't enough stone slabs that they didn't write anything?

Ronan looked up at the Ancient One, hoping to see denial in her eyes.

However, he was disappointed.

"You're right, but that's only one reason."

"The sentence that wasn't engraved is written like this."

"Except for meeting that one and only."

The Ancient One gave the final answer.

only?

Ronan was taken aback; this wasn't the first time he'd heard this term.

Ronan had heard this word from the Ancient One before.

And it was describing Ronan.

At the time, Ronan thought that the Ancient One was just fooling him, but he didn't expect that the Ancient One would bring up the old story again now.

"There was once a Sorcerer Supreme who was almost comparable to the founder of Agamotto in terms of both his power and other aspects."

"In addition, some things happened that led him to believe that he was the only one."

"So he began searching the universe for the remaining five Infinity Stones."

"But precisely because of this, Earth is facing an unprecedented crisis."

"It wasn't until the very last moment of his life that he realized he had been wrong all along."

"So he used the power of the Infinity Stones to defeat all his enemies, but he also died from that power."

"And that person"

"He was the teacher of the Venerable Master who carved the stone tablet."

The Ancient One looked at the ancient stone slab in front of her and told some very vague stories.

What exactly happened that made the Sorcerer Supreme believe that he was the only one?

What happened that made him need six Infinity Stones?

Also, what was the reason for the sudden realization at the last moment?

None of these things were mentioned by the Ancient One.

Ronan didn't ask.

He understood the Ancient One's temperament; when he needed to know, the Ancient One would definitely tell him.

There must be other reasons why I didn't tell him.

"So, teacher, do you mean I'm the only one?"

"But this is too much."

Ronan originally wanted to say abstract, but then felt that the words didn't quite capture the meaning.

He never understood what this so-called "only one" meant.

"It's normal that you don't know many things."

"However, the truth will come out sooner or later."

"Just remember, you are the most special one among us."

The Ancient One patted Ronan on the shoulder and, amidst Ronan's puzzled gaze, reopened the Arcane Gate.

It seems that Ronan will not get an answer, at least not today.

Ronan pursed his lips; he should have known this would happen.

Having followed the Ancient One for sixteen years, he had encountered her enigmatic personality more than once.

I feel like her riddle-like personality is getting worse and worse.

But no matter what, if the Ancient One doesn't say anything, there's nothing Ronan can do.

He can't beat him in a fight, so what can he do?

I'm so angry! So angry! So angry!

My curiosity has been piqued, but I'm not satisfied with it.

What kind of nonsense is this!

"And one more thing, Ronan, you must remember the most important one."

"This is the only path you can take; you can only rely on yourself. No one else can help you."

"At least, I can't."
