Chapter 88 Magneto

In an ordinary country, in an ordinary town, in an ordinary steel mill, there is an ordinary worker.

This ordinary worker, Henrik, has an unusual nickname.

Eric Lansher, the "Magneto".

He has been wanted globally ever since he caused a major incident at a stadium.

Forced by circumstances, he came to this small town under an assumed name.

Then they were completely suppressed.

He was suppressed by a "magical creature" called his wife, and then an angel called his "daughter" was born.

Now the infamous Magneto has completely transformed into an honest worker named Henrik.

Quicksilver Pietro: "???"

Scarlet Witch Wanda: "????"

Polaris Lorna Dayne: "??????"

Perhaps because Eric has committed so many sins, it won't be easy for him to live a completely peaceful life.

An unexpected event led Eric to reveal his abilities.

A sudden earthquake damaged the tools used to secure the steel furnace. Just as his coworker was about to be crushed to death by the several-ton furnace, he stepped in and saved him.

However, Magneto, who has done bad things all his life, will regret this act of kindness for the rest of his life.

After saving his coworker's life, the revelation of his abilities made him uneasy, so he immediately returned home to prepare to flee with his wife and children.

As he expected, the moment he revealed his abilities, he was reported by his coworkers.

Thanks to Eric himself, his abilities are known to almost everyone in the world.

The police didn't even dare drive; they rushed to his house on foot, carrying no metal objects and even switching their weapons to wooden bows and arrows. They also preemptively arrested Eric's daughter.

Eric didn't want to implicate his wife and daughter, so he surrendered. The police also didn't want to go too far. Having lived in the same town for many years, they were very familiar with Eric's family and turned a blind eye, letting his wife and daughter go.

The incident should have ended there, but as the police surrounded Eric and arrested him, a bird's cry came from deep in the forest.

A sharp cry pierced the twilight, and Nina's figure, huddled behind a pine tree, began to tremble violently. Cold sweat seeped from her clenched palms—the image of her father's arrest was branded onto her retina like a red-hot iron.

"No...don't take him away..." she choked out in a whisper, but a strange clicking sound came from her throat.

Dozens of sparrows took flight from the bare branches, their wings flapping and creating a sharp whistling sound; a flock of crows swooped down from the canopy, their beaks gleaming like blades in the twilight.

Nina's pupils rippled with golden-brown light, and her consciousness spread like spider silk to every bird in flight.

"Open fire! They're under control!" The police officers drew their bows and arrows.

A bird struck a policeman's arm with pinpoint accuracy, and a crossbow bolt flew out of his hand uncontrollably.

The trajectory of the arrow tearing through the air froze everyone's movements.

It pierced through the chests of the mother and daughter huddled beside the rock, and crimson roses bloomed on their overlapping garments.

The birds, out of control, scattered in all directions.

Eric's mind went blank, and the police were stunned. No one had expected things to develop this way.

Eric quickly broke free from the police's control and went to his wife and daughter. He hugged them and, noticing that they were fading from breathing, burst into tears.

Hatred overwhelmed him, and his hand began to reach for the metal necklace around his daughter's neck.

Miller, who had been waiting for a long time, knew it was time for him to make his appearance.

Everything around them began to freeze, and their bodies also froze.

The arrow that had pierced Magneto's wife and daughter began to disappear, and their hearts began to beat strongly again.

Miller appeared out of thin air. The moment his feet touched the ground, spiderweb-like gilded patterns burst forth on the surface. The surrounding fallen leaves automatically formed a huge throne without any wind. Miller plopped down on the throne, crossed his legs, and snapped his fingers.

Time, which had been frozen, began to flow again, and everyone in the room turned to look at Miller.

Miller's entrance effects clearly made it easy for everyone to understand who was in charge now.

Just as Miller was about to make a small show of trying to recruit Old Man as his lackey, the little girl Nina, clutching her heart which was starting to beat again, asked curiously, "Are you God?"

Just as Miller was about to speak up and boast a little, his brow twitched, Future Diary issued a warning.

Miller attracted attention when he belittled God and exalted himself—and that's when it began—

Miller swallowed hard, put his legs down, and said from the bottom of his heart, "I am not God, and of course I have never seen God."

Of course, they also don't want to see God, since according to the setting, no matter which universe it is, God has an awesome skill.

[Omniscient and omnipotent]

Miller drooled just seeing that skill.

But if he is targeted by someone with this skill, Miller will once again choose to follow his heart.

"You're so powerful, yet you've never seen God? Does God not exist? Otherwise, why didn't He appear just now?" Nina asked innocently.

You're drenched in sweat, bro.

Noticing that Miller was hesitant to speak, Magneto quickly took his daughter into his arms.

With Magneto's intelligence, it's easy to see from Miller's behavior that Miller knows God exists, but doesn't want to talk about God.

"Sir, the man before you is Magneto, Erik Lansher, a wanted criminal. He committed numerous crimes many years ago—" The sheriff, finding Miller to be quite reasonable, spoke up. After all, they had thoroughly offended Magneto, and with Miller gone, they realized their lives were in danger, so they had no choice but to speak up.

Magneto held his wife and daughter tightly without trying to explain, after all, he had really done it.

Miller glanced at Magneto and asked curiously, "Since he's Magneto, how did you capture him?"

The officers exchanged hesitant glances, but finally the sheriff steeled himself and said, "Let's grab his daughter first and force him to surrender."

.

Miller chuckled lightly, said nothing more, opened the Anywhere Door, and led Magneto and his family away from the forest.

"Sheriff, Magneto has been taken away by this mysterious person. What should we do?" the police officer next to the sheriff couldn't help but ask.

"What Magneto? There's no such thing as Magneto!" The sheriff's expression changed, and he immediately shouted.

"Huh?!" The police officer looked confused.

"When you get back, go talk to those steelworkers. Henrik isn't some Magneto. He's gone on vacation with his wife and daughter!" The sheriff didn't intend to explain further, and after handing over his work to the inquiring officer, he led his team away.

The police officer who was asking the questions stood there stunned for a moment before suddenly realizing what was happening and quickly caught up with the group.
