Ch. 122

Meanwhile, inside a majestic castle built in a mountain, carvings can be seen on the walls.

Meanwhile, the Scarlet Witch was looking around in awe and excitement while Wong's eyes were grim right now. He can't let the Scarlet Witch obtain more power.

If possible, he needed to kill her now to preserve the peace on earth.

"Eons ago, the first demon, Chthon, carved his dark magic into this tomb." Wong started reciting what he knew about the carvings on the walls.

"These same spells were later transcribed into the Darkhold." He continued. He too was amazed at the sight in front of him.

This is the first time he went here. The only reason why he knew about this place was because before he became the Sorcerer Supreme, he was a librarian, and he has read almost everything in the library of the Sanctums, including some of those in the forbidden section.

Suddenly, they heard some stones clacking with each other, they both looked behind them in both shock and slight fear.

When they saw that jw was nothing, they both returned to face the carved walls.

As they continued to explore the castle, the more carvings were revealed to them.

"There's no telling what soulless monstrosities lie within." Wong continued what he was saying earlier.

Wong looked up and saw a creepy looking statue looking down at him, he can't help but gulp at seeing such a scary statue.

Suddenly, the whole place lits up, courtesy of the Scarlet Witch.

However, the moment the whole place was lit up, a huge monster roared just beside Wong, shocking him greatly.

He then heard a loud footstep behind him and saw the same monster looking at him angrily.

Wong didn't want to go down without a fight so he conjured a pair of tao Mandalas and was already prepared to fight these monsters

Even Scarlet Witch was shock by this. As they were being surrounded by the monsters, the monsters suddenly stopped in their tracks and directly kneeled in front of the Scarlet Witch, the moment they saw her.

"They've been waiting for me." The Scarlet Witch raised her guard down as she felt an inexplicable excitement within her.

When she turns around and saw a lady, carved on the wall, she felt like this lady was similar to her.

At this moment, the Scarlet With felt like she was destined to rule, and no one, even the being that she fought in another universe could stop her.

"This isn't a tomb." The Scarlet Witch's hands glowed in red, as she continued.

"This is a throne."

"Yeah, no shit Sherlock." Suddenly, she heard a sudden voice interrupting her and her greatness.

When she looked at the entrance and saw Dr. Strange along with the same man who defeated her, she was shocked.

However, she could already guess on how did they came back.

"Where's the girl." The Scarlet Witch said while the monsters around her turned to face Xyrus and used their sizes as if to threaten Xyrus.

"She no longer have her powers." Xyrus informed her and before she could respond, he continued.

"Because this time, I'll be your enemy." Behind him, a similar portal of America's powers was conjured but no one came out.

This is only to show the Scarlet Witch that America is now free from her eyes and she would now focus on Xyrus only.

"How..." The Scarlet Witch muttered in questioning.

"That's for me to know and for you to find out." Xyrus challenged.

The Scarlet Witch didn't even need to say a word before the monsters under her command finally moved and rushed towards Xyrus's location.

Xyrus kept a fair distance and directly cast Bolts of Balthakk that directly slapped the monsters away from him.

However, contrary to his expectations, the monsters stood up just fine and the wounds on their chest healed.

"This reminds me of someone." Xyrus muttered when he saw their healing capabilities.

Although Xyrus wasn't going all out, but it still surprised him.

"Anyways, my enemy here is the Scarlet Witch, so please step back in the meantime." Xyrus 'politely' said and before they could react, a cage made up of space energy and directly locked the monsters into one single cube.

*Boom!*

However, The Scarlet Witch took this chance to throw a firebolt at Xyrus's unsuspecting front.

The firebolt exploded once it came in contact with Xyrus and when the dust settled, Xyrus just stared at her with one of his eyebrows raised.

"Was that supposed to do something?" Xyrus asked which angers the Scarlet Witch and caused her to released huge amounts of chaos energy inside her body that directly smashed the whole castle into smithereens.

Wong, who has been watching on the sidelines, along with Dr. Strange didn't even managed to react before Xyrus sent the both of them away. He doesn't want them to be affected by the aftermath of this battle.

"What an incredible amount of energy." Xyrus muttered in awe. It's like the Scarlet Witch has her own dimension where she could siphon her powers, which is technically true.

"Are you really sure you wanted to do this? If your children were to be informed of this, what do you think their reactions would be? You may not know, but there are other ways to achieve the happiness that you always wanted." This time, Xyrus decided to take the persuading approach.

The Scarlet Witch stopped in her approach, and muttered in pain.

"You don't know pain I feel."

"I may not know but I do know a way to ease that pain." Xyrus said, he wanted to invite the Scarlet Witch to the Group Chat, because not only she is strong but because her potential is very high, especially he's planning on training her himself.

The glow on her hands disappeared and the Scarlet Witch opened her eyes slowly as a tear dropped on her cheeks.

"How?" Her voice cracked, which shows that she is feeling extreme pain and sadness at this time.

"Abandon what you are about to do and come with me. I'll show you." Xyrus finally raised his hand forward to her.

"....You promise?" She finally relented and asked in a painful but mixed with a bit of relief voice.

Xyrus smiled at this and the earlier suffocating aura that spreads was finally gone.

"I promise."
