American Comics: Starting with Muggle Wizards

He returned to his bedroom grumbling and, after washing up, went to the castle restaurant for breakfast.

Just then, I saw Raven leading the students who had just finished exercising into the restaurant.

Harvey, who was seething with anger, picked up his plate and went over to sit down next to Raven.

"Raven, you're definitely doing this on purpose! Can't we go for a morning run near the artificial lake?"

After exercising, Raven still had a towel around her neck. She was wiping away her sweat when she picked up a steaming bowl of wheat porridge and took a couple of sips.

Then, he said slowly, "Young people shouldn't stay in bed all day. Getting up early to exercise is good for your health. Even a woman my age should get up early to exercise."

"Besides, how can you, a newcomer, have the nerve to sleep in late?"

Raven's condescending tone only made Harvey angrier.

"I'm not your student, so why should I be allowed to sleep in until I naturally wake up?"

"Ms. Raven, you're being too nosy!"

Raven gave a mocking look to her face and said.

“As long as you live at the school, you have to set a good example for the students. Your bad habit of sleeping in late will only lead the students who are still immature astray.”

Harvey was speechless. He was just here to pick up girls, not to study or work. What business was it of his to set a bad example and lead the students astray?

Moreover, if sleeping in late is a bad influence on students, then those students are far too fragile.

“It is your responsibility as a teacher to set an example. I will not object to you teaching students and helping them establish a correct outlook on life and values.”

"But why are you dragging me into this? These students probably don't even know who I am. Do you think I'll corrupt them just because I sleep in?"

"Don't treat me like an idiot!"

Harvey knew he would never win an argument with this woman, so after venting his anger, he decisively got up and left the table.

Raven found it amusing to watch Harvey's hasty retreat.

A fourteen-year-old girl standing nearby asked curiously, "Is this handsome older brother new? Ms. Raven, he seems very angry?"

Raven patted the little girl's head and began to introduce Harvey.

"This older brother is called Harvey. He's new here from yesterday. He's a bit withdrawn, so don't mess with him in the future, or he might get angry and teach you a lesson."

The little girl nodded seriously, staring intently at Harvey's back, as if trying to memorize the older brother's appearance so she could avoid him in the future.

After a quick breakfast, Harvey asked Charles and learned that Jean Grey usually spends her time reading in the library, except for her X-Men training sessions every Wednesday.

Jean Grey needs to temper her mind through books and suppress the restless Phoenix Force within her.

Harvey tidied his hair, making sure he was still as handsome and dashing as ever, before heading to the library on the fourth floor of the castle.

He walked over to Jean Grey, who was quietly reading at her desk, and sat down familiarly to start a conversation.

"Hey Qin, are you reading... the philosophy book 'Being and Time'?"

Qin glanced at someone and said, "Be quiet. Philosophy can inspire deeper thinking. This is my method of cultivation. Don't bother me unless it's important."

Chapter 242 The Unpredictable Qin

Jean Grey's aloof attitude was obvious; she read to cultivate her mind and needed a quiet environment.

But Harvey was a man with skin as thick as a city wall. He acted as if he hadn't seen Jean's cold expression and deliberately said:

"Your method of cultivation is wrong; the harder you try, the easier it is to get into a dead end."

Jean Grey turned and frowned at Harvey: "Are you teaching me cultivation?"

Harvey said seriously, "Charles taught you the wrong way. You shouldn't suppress the Phoenix Force within you, because you'll eventually lose control."

"You should release the energy within you from time to time to control your power, rather than suppressing it."

"You're like a powder keg that could explode at any moment. The harder you try to suppress it, the more severe the backlash will be!"

Jean Grey was silent for a moment.

"You don't understand. I dare not fully release the energy in my body, because once I do, it may become uncontrollable."

"And at first, I also wanted to control the power in my body through training."

"But the speed at which my power increased was beyond my imagination. I felt like I couldn't control it, so I asked the professor to help suppress it."

Harvey's expression was serious: "You've suppressed it too much. The Phoenix Force has become a secondary personality, and it's a bomb that's bound to explode sooner or later."

“I can take you to a safe place where no one is around. Even if you lose control, you can slowly integrate with your alternate personality. Once you truly master the power, I will bring you back.”

Jean Grey squinted, not believing it at all.

"If all the violent energy within me were released, it could even affect the entire planet."

"Unless you can take me off Earth, there is no such thing as a safe place on this planet."

Harvey gave a mysterious smile.

"How do you know I can't take you away from Earth? I can even take you to the Andromeda Galaxy to see aliens. Would you like to go?"

Jean Grey's expression froze for a moment: "Are you serious?"

Harvey planned to take her directly to see the scenery in the universe.

"I can take you to the Andromeda Galaxy right now. Remember, don't resist; dizziness is normal."

Jean Grey exclaimed "Ah!" and before she could react, she was taken into the space tunnel.

Inside the dazzling, multicolored tunnel, Qin felt her head spinning and her mind reeling.

Fortunately, she remembered Harvey's last words and did not resist, letting an invisible force drag her along the space tunnel.

Two seconds later.

Harvey and Jean Grey appeared in the cosmos, 20,000 light-years away from Earth.

In Qin's perception, she only lost focus for a moment before finding that her surroundings had suddenly changed, and she had found herself in the vast starry sky.

However, she did not feel any pressure in the vacuum environment and observed carefully for a while.

Qin then noticed a transparent magical shield surrounding the two of them.

"My God, you can take people to space? This is the first time I've ever seen such a fantastic universe."

"Now I believe you can take me to a completely safe place."

Harvey said rather narcissistically, "When a girl starts to trust a man, it means she is about to fall in love."

Qin's face turned cold, and she said in a serious tone, "I have never seen anyone as shameless and narcissistic as you."

Harvey, far from being ashamed, chuckled and said, "Alright, stop wasting time. Start releasing the pressure and merge with the dark alternate personality as soon as possible."

"Then we should head back early, and maybe we can even get a free lunch."

Jean Grey also became serious, closed her eyes and began to meditate, soon releasing a mysterious and profound aura.

This also means that the zither has truly reached a point where it could backfire at any moment.

Harvey was intimidated by the aura that Jean unintentionally emitted. Not wanting to disturb her transformation into a villain, he could only frown and retreat thirty kilometers.

At such a great distance, Qin is just an inconspicuous little black dot in the vast starry sky, its presence not even as bright as the stars far away.

But the next moment.

Suddenly, golden light shone brightly from where Qin was, and a phantom of a phoenix hundreds of kilometers in size appeared. The surrounding space seemed unable to withstand it and creaked.

After Jean stopped suppressing the power within her, her dark alternate personality took control of her body and fired an energy beam at Harvey.

Seeing Jean suddenly attack him, Harvey, who had anticipated this, instantly teleported away from where he stood.

When it reappeared, it was already one light-year away.

At this distance, given Qin's speed, it's impossible for her to catch up.

Harvey released his mental energy, carefully watching Jean who was in a frenzied state.

After the corrupted Jean discovers that the only living person has disappeared, she is immediately lost in confusion. She is surrounded by the vast universe, and the nearest planet is more than 50 light-years away.

Her current abilities are too weak; she can only read and manipulate minds, release the destructive cosmic energy transformed from the Phoenix Force, and experience Phoenix Rebirth.

It does have the ability to fly, but its speed is less than Mach 10.

At this distance, it would probably take a hundred years to fly back to Earth, which is 20,000 light-years away.

Moreover, she didn't know where the nearest habitable planet was. If she just flew in any direction, the probability of getting lost in space was much greater than the chance of finding aliens by sheer luck.

Therefore, the corrupted Jean stared blankly at the vast starry sky, not knowing what to do for a moment.

The corrupted personality vented its anger haphazardly for three days and three nights, consuming a large amount of Phoenix Power. Ultimately, due to a mental breakdown, it voluntarily returned control of its body to the benevolent personality.

Harvey noticed that Jean, who had been acting crazy for three days, seemed to have calmed down.

He cautiously extended his spiritual power to observe Qin's condition from a distance.

Qin was completely naked, clutching her chest, looking around, her thin lips slightly parted, trembling as she cried out:

"Harvey? Are you there? I'm back to normal, come out quickly!"

In the dark and desolate universe, loneliness consumed her heart, and fear gradually took hold.

Harvey teleported to Jean's side as if a beam of light had appeared.

The moment Jean saw a living person, she couldn't help but rush forward and hug Harvey tightly, afraid that he would disappear again.

Harvey felt a sexy, hot body press against him, and while gently stroking her snow-white shoulders, he softly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."

At that moment, Qin's pupils contracted sharply, and her dark personality invaded again.

Harvey keenly sensed the change in Jean, immediately releasing his hand from her slender waist and keeping his distance while watching her warily.

"You've been controlled by your dark personality again?"

Jean looked up at Harvey with a strange smile. "You can't escape this time!"

She suddenly launched an attack, unleashing invisible telekinetic power to bind Harvey tightly.

Harvey was suddenly controlled by Jean's attack, and he quickly unleashed his inner magic to break free of the psychic restraints.

"Beautiful women really do like to lie!"

He tried to teleport away, but found that the surrounding space was affected by the power of the phoenix, and he could no longer teleport away.
