Chapter 287 : Predict Future??
"How does a wise man speak to a fool?"
The black figure nodded solemnly, feigning agreement. "No problem, you're right."
Seizing the moment like a spring, Sylvie leaped from her seat and slashed at the talking black figure.
However, just as before, without warning, the black figure swiftly changed position, rendering Sylvie's blade strike futile.
With a sneer, he mocked, "Well, the blade fell right into my hands, didn't it? Haha."
Seeing Sylvie sit back with a displeased expression, the black figure inquired, "How about it, shall we continue like this?"
Loki and Sylvie sighed in resignation, forced to sit back. "His foresight and uncanny agility make it impossible to confront head-on. We'll have to wait for our chance."
Seeing their futile attempts, the black figure smiled and retrieved a folder from under the desk. He produced two A4 sheets covered in handwritten notes and placed them on the table in front of them. "Do you know why you two couldn't kill me?"
At this moment, not only the characters on screen but also the viewers were captivated.
The black figure didn't mince words, revealing the secret with a smile. "It's because I already knew what would transpire."
"If you doubt me, take a look at these papers."
Loki grabbed the papers, his pupils shrinking in disbelief. As the camera zoomed in, the white sheets were covered in blue text detailing every action and word Loki uttered upon entering the castle.
"I don't believe it. You must have compiled this after secretly recording us!" Loki protested, recalling a similar process at the TVA.
"This doesn't mean the future can be predicted!" he argued.
The black figure revealed his true form, challenging them. "Aren't you curious how I escaped before you even attacked?"
Sylvie retorted, "It's because you have control over time!"
The black figure countered, "But how could I foresee and evade your attack?"
Sylvie's words explained the teleportation, but not the precise evasion. The black figure's smile grew more smug.
"The simple answer is, I know everything. I see everything."
Kamar-Taj:
Strange, exclaimed with a shocked expression, "Does he possess the power of the Time Stone?"
Ancient One shook his head.
"It would be even more terrifying if what he said were true!"
Observing Wong's perplexed expression, Strange elucidated, "The Time Stone glimpses myriad futures."
"But this man, he foresaw only one path, and it was inexorable!"
Upon hearing this, Wang's complexion turned deathly pale.
[Noticing their grimaces, the man in black smiled and reclined in his seat, yielding to his urge to speak:]
["I witnessed your actions on La Mandis.]
"I know everything that the TVA does not!")
["All the scheming, all the conversations.]
"Loki, indeed, your fleeting glances by the lake were quite poignant."
[Sylvie Interjected with a cold tone, interrupting the man in black, and forced a victorious smile 🙂]
["Nevertheless, we defied your rules to come here!
[Hearing this, the man in black smiled and shook his head, gazing at Sylvie with pity:]
"No, every step you've taken here, whether in La Mandis or the void, was a path I laid out for you."
[The man in black theatrically moved his two fingers across the desktop like a villain:
"You're just walking along it."
[Loki and Sylvie could no longer feign composure; their faces were contorted in dismay.
[They didn't want to believe it, couldn't believe it was true!)
[Seeing their disbelief persist, the man in black produced another document, handing it to Loki, also filled with dialogue. ]
[At this juncture, Sylvie demanded angrily:]
"Then why have you brought us here?"
The dark-skinned man suddenly exclaimed with excitement, "Without undergoing transformation along the journey, you wouldn't have reached here at all, and these events were meant to happen! Everyone follows the correct path, and only then can the mission be fulfilled."
"No," Loki said, glancing at the blank paper in his hand, speaking on behalf of the dark-skinned man, "Exactly. This is all just a game, with everything orchestrated from behind the scenes."
Sylvie's words, echoing those of both herself and the dark-skinned man, were all written in advance on this very piece of paper. At this moment, they could no longer deceive themselves!
"The person before us can truly foresee the future!"
At this point, the screen fell into complete silence!
The current atmosphere was beyond mere shock!
Loki couldn't help but tremble!
The dark-skinned man before him was incredibly daunting!
He had pushed for his own transformation, but what was his true mission?
He had never believed that the other party's actions were aimed at transforming him into a better person!
In the realm of the Shinigami!
Aizen chuckled contentedly!
Apart from the foolish Shinigami who had stared at him with anger, shock, and confusion months ago, he had never felt such joy.
This was spiritual ecstasy! Nothing else compared!
At this moment, Aizen was certain that this dark-skinned man was undoubtedly his counterpart, and certainly not a benevolent one!
The man might have even surpassed him in intellect!
Although the other's ability to foresee the future played a crucial role,
Aizen believed that he didn't just foresee a singular future and sit back to enjoy it; rather, he could see countless possibilities, much like the original Doctor Strange!
Thus, the task ahead was to narrow down these myriad possibilities into one!
This individual was akin to an intricate array of dominoes meticulously laid out beforehand.
All that remained was to wait for the moment when the Hulk would propel Iron Man into the skies as he burst through the door!
From there, everything would naturally unfold, precisely as he desired!
"It's truly delightful to behold.
"I wonder, after all you've orchestrated, what exactly do you aim to achieve?"
Aizen eagerly anticipated this moment, akin to the anticipation of a favorite dish soon to be served.
