Chapter: 114: Chaos Magic

The time and location of travel cannot be selected.

When Jack saw this, he quickly gave up on the idea of traveling for now.

Who knows where he would end up? If he accidentally ended up on Krypton on the brink of destruction, or more directly, appeared right in front of Darkseid...

For him now, that would be no different from sending himself to death.

"Let's forget it, let's think about it later."

After a lot of thought, Jack still chose to give up for now.

Anyway, he needed to transform into a Kryptonian first and increase his strength before considering crossing over to the DC universe.

Jack put away the movie ticket and continued his Salvaging Pool. On the first trip, he had the opportunity to cross over to the DC universe, and he felt that he might have been lucky today.

However, In the following salvaging items, he found nothing but garbage.

After finishing salvaging, Jack did not stay any longer and returned to reality.

.....

One day passed quickly, and in the evening, Pietro and Wanda returned home.

"Jack! Look at this! Look at this!"

As soon as they got home, Wanda ran into the kitchen and handed something to Jack.

"What's wrong?"

Jack turned around, puzzled, looking at her hand, but there was nothing there.

"The bracelet you gave me, look at this crystal."

Seeing that Jack didn't notice, Wanda seemed a little disappointed. Her mouth pouted, and she shook her hand again.

"Hmm?"

Jack, who was enchanted by Wanda's playful cuteness, snapped out of it and looked at her wrist.

On her wrist was a thin bracelet with a transparent diamond-shaped crystal that was filled with a faint scarlet color.

Wait...Red color?

Jack was suddenly alert and instantly came back to his senses.

'If he remembered correctly, this bracelet was given to him by the Ancient One to absorb the chaotic magic coming from Wanda unconsciously. But he had just put it on for a short while, and this had already happened?'

Jack didn't care about anything else because his heart was full of worry.

He cleaned his hands on his apron, took Wanda's small hand, and carefully looked at the bracelet, not noticing that Wanda's face had turned red immediately.

'This is too fast.'

After observing for a while, Jack frowned, even using energy absorption to sense it carefully. He finally confirmed that the crystal was constantly absorbing the energy in Wanda's body, just as he had seen.

Wanda's chaotic magic developed much faster than he had expected.

At this rate, the crystal would be full in less than a month, and he would have to take in all of this energy to keep the crystal working.

But another problem came up. Jack's physical power had already reached levels, and once or twice was fine, but if it happened often, He was afraid he would have to deal with the consequences of losing control of his energy again. He might explode or disintegrate because of the huge power in his body.

'Chaos magic is not an ordinary energy, it is the supreme power that can shake the multiverse.'

This means that Jack must speed up his plans to improve himself.

"What... What's wrong?"

Wanda, who was originally shy, also noticed Jack's weird expression, as if it was because of the bracelet.

"It's nothing," Jack said. He realized that he was still holding Wanda's hand tightly, and then he let go, turned around, and continued to busy himself.

At the same time, he waved his hand and said, "Go wash your hands, we will be able to eat soon."

"Oh."

She touched the hand that Jack had just grabbed, and as she left the kitchen, she looked annoyed and angry at Jack's back before leaving the kitchen.

"Phew, that was close."

As Wanda left, Jack also breathed a sigh of relief.

After a satisfying dinner, the siblings were ready to watch some TV shows. Wanda suggested a show, and Jack didn't seem to have anything else to do, so he agreed.

Pietro's face suddenly turned ugly. It seemed that he already knew what Wanda wanted to watch.

"Ding ding ding ding!!"

Sure enough, when Wanda carefully took out a disc from her bag, not only Pietro but even Jack felt a bit hesitant.

"The Dick Van Dyke Show?" Jack looked at the movie disc in Wanda's hand, feeling a bit surprised, then looked back at her. "When did you buy this?"

"After school today, I passed by Chinatown and found it there," Wanda replied, looking at Jack with excitement and anxiety. "Um, is it okay if we watch it?"

"...I guess so!"

Jack just couldn't say no as he watched Wanda's exciting eyes, so he quickly agreed.

"Yesss! You're the best, Jack!" Wanda was ecstatic at the permission and hugged Jack excitedly before quickly releasing him and setting up the television.

Jack saw her ears turning red as she showed them, but he didn't know if it was because she was happy or shy.

"Ah, too bad." Jack let out a sad sigh, it happened too quickly, and he didn't feel much.

At that moment, Wanda finished setting up the television, and the 80-inch LCD screen in the living room began playing the program.

"Alright."

Pietro and Jack exchanged glances, both feeling helpless as they sat on the couch.

Wanda naturally walked over and sat next to Jack, with her legs crossed on the couch and her head resting lightly on his shoulder.

"This show is pretty good."

Jack's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly the program became colorful. Sitting on the other side, Pietro looked at the two almost cuddled together, sighed with a sad expression, and turned his head to look at Chloe, who had finished her chores and was standing quietly on the side.

.....

Two hours later, only Jack and Wanda were left in the living room, or more accurately, Jack was still watching while Wanda had already fallen asleep.

"Hehe, little girl."

Jack looked at Wanda sleeping soundly on him, carefully stood up, held her in his arms, and walked upstairs.

After putting Wanda back in her room, Jack returned to his own room and went to bed to rest. But obviously, he couldn't sleep well at all.

"I think there may be something you might be interested in."

Suddenly, Jack saw a reddish-colored image all of a sudden and asked, "What's the matter? What would I be interested in?"

"Take a look at this first."

As soon as the voice fell, a video started playing.

"Hmm?"

The content of the video made Jack's eyes light up.

"This... has potential."
