Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

After experiencing Sif's sincere gratitude, Peter was preparing to return to his company, Parker Technology, after a long absence, to see how the latest model of the Unicorn phone was progressing.

By the way, could you ask Hermann how far along the development of the tram is?

But before I could even congratulate her, Hill called me:

"Chief, Wanda Maximov is awake."

Upon hearing this, Peter, who was about to head to the company, immediately stopped in his tracks:

"How is she?"

"She's physically fine, but her emotions are a bit unstable. Also..." Hilton paused, "She said she wants to see you."

……

Five minutes later, in the intensive care unit under the supervision of S.H.I.E.L.D.,

Peter saw Wanda, who had just woken up, and Pietro, who was already watching over her.

"You've arrived." Wanda didn't look at him, but simply greeted him in a flat voice, then gestured with her eyes for Pietro to go out first.

Pietro glanced at Peter warily, but still obediently chose to leave.

"How are you feeling?" Peter didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly on the edge of Wanda's hospital bed.

This outrageous gesture made Wanda unconsciously shrink back.

"Not very good."

She finally turned her head, her beautiful eyes swirling with complex emotions.

There was anger, confusion, and a hint of vulnerability that she herself was unaware of.

"Why did you bring me here? To Stark's territory?"

Do you want to flaunt your spoils to the whole world? Or aren't you worried at all that I might take advantage of your absence to seek revenge, or... go on a killing spree?

As she spoke, a terrifying red light involuntarily appeared in her eyes, and the fluctuations of chaotic magic even caused everything in the room to tremble slightly.

But when faced with Wanda's threat, Peter did not show the same alarmed expression she had imagined.

This guy even went so far as to...peel an apple.

And then... it was placed directly in front of Wanda's mouth:

"You must be starving after not eating for over ten hours."

At that moment, Wanda was stunned.

She never expected that, faced with her relentless pressure, Peter's first reaction would be to ask if she was hungry.

This feeling... she had never felt with anyone other than Pietro since her parents passed away.

but……

Pa~!

Wanda slapped Peter's hand, her intention being to knock the apple away.

But Peter anticipated her prediction, swiftly snatching the apple back and taking a bite out of it.

Wanda herself, unable to control her strength, slammed her fingers on the steel armrest of the hospital bed, causing her to gasp in pain.

"He's young, but he has quite a temper."

Peter grumbled, then casually stuck out a finger and tapped Wanda's finger.

The moment their fingertips touched, the horse charm instantly dispelled the pain in Wanda's fingertips and made her feel a sense of comfort.

Chaos magic is both a gift and a curse.

Ever since she awakened this power, she has been constantly bombarded with all sorts of chaotic whispers that tempt her to commit destruction.

She could only feel a long-lost peace when Peter used the Horse Charm on her.

"You..." Wanda couldn't help but squint her eyes comfortably, but after a moment she realized something seemed off, so she could only force herself to remain calm:

"Don't think you can fool me by putting on this act."

"Think what you want."

Peter shrugged indifferently, then stared into Wanda's eyes and said:

"Anyway, I'm confident that I can bring you siblings to Amelika, and I'm confident that you won't be able to cause any trouble under my control."

"Stop acting all high and mighty!"

Wanda is showing signs of getting angry:

"Otherwise, I guarantee you'll regret your arrogance for the rest of your life!"

"I believe you won't do that."

These seemingly casual words froze Wanda's anger.

Believe?

"Why should you believe me?" Wanda's voice trembled slightly, she herself didn't know if it was from anger or something else.

Peter suddenly moved closer to her, so close that if he lowered his head by just one centimeter, their noses would touch.

"If you're already blinded by hatred and desperate for revenge, those Hydra bastards won't be able to stop you."

"In addition, the girl who helped me transfer the divine energy to you is a professional lie detector. I can sense your true emotions."

"You're nothing but a tough little hedgehog, all bark and no bite. You hold your quills up high, but actually, you're just doing that to protect your soft belly from wild animals."

At this point, while Wanda was still in a daze, Peter patted her head as if petting a cat:

"You don't need to put on that cold, world-weary act with me, because in my eyes... your acting is fake."

Rumble!

When she came to her senses, the chaotic magic within Wanda surged wildly, causing the entire ward to tremble violently.

Peter, noticing this, realized that if he continued to provoke Hakimi, he would instantly transform into his Spinosaurus form.

This instantly widened the distance between them and Wanda.

"Hydra detonated the entire base, most likely trying to hide something. If I find any clues, I will contact you immediately."

Also, I'd be happy to give you a small gift.

As he spoke, Peter's storage ring flashed, and a jade bed, entirely ice-blue and radiating a chilling aura, suddenly appeared in the spacious intensive care unit.

It was the Jade Bed that Peter had acquired long ago, and now it had finally found a suitable user.

After leaving the bed there, Peter Chongwanda waved and left the ward.

"Phew~"

As Pietro pushed open the door and entered, he felt the chill emanating from the jade bed and involuntarily shivered.

"Wow, it's so cool here, we don't even need to turn on the air conditioner."

Noticing his younger sister's murderous glare, he paused for a moment, then immediately changed his tune:

"What was that damn guy thinking? My lovely sister has just recovered from a serious illness, and he just left her this huge block of ice. Is he trying to freeze her to death?!"

Wanda rolled his eyes, then spoke weakly:

"I'm starving, go get me something to eat."

"Yes, ma'am~" Pietro winked at her, and then left the ward like a gust of wind.

After Pietro left, Wanda pursed her lips, and eventually, as if possessed, walked over and slowly sat down on the jade bed.

The moment she sat on the jade bed, something miraculous happened.

The icy chill flowed into her body, but instead of making her feel piercingly cold, it felt like a clear spring flowing through a dry riverbed, making her feel incredibly comfortable.

The whispers that had begun to revive after Peter left vanished at that moment!

The world is quieter than ever before.

My mood is also more peaceful than ever before.

What shocked her even more was that when she tried to sense the chaotic magic within her body, the energy that was previously as unruly as a wild horse became more docile than ever before!

This...this is simply a miracle!

Wanda stroked the cold jade bed beneath her, her thoughts swirling.

It seems I owe that guy... more and more.
