American comic book mutants: Magneto said I'm too extreme.

Chapter 16: Polaris Follows, His First Trusted Subordinate!

Charlotte hadn't expected this either.

It was just a casual outing.

You will then be able to meet Lorna Dayne.

This famous mutant, Polaris.

It just so happens to be the North Star, and it's the most dangerous moment when it's being hunted down.

Charlotte certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

So I acted decisively.

It saved Polaris from being surrounded.

He then quickly left with Polaris.

And after wandering around in the dark alley a few times.

With the North Star in hand, they arrived at a secluded house.

As someone who is not short of money, Charlotte certainly wouldn't just prepare one base for herself.

This is one of the places he arranged for the children to stay.

Once inside the room and after confirming it was safe,

Charlotte then had a chance to turn around and look at Lorna Dayne.

To be fair, Lorna Dane is indeed quite good-looking.

Also, because of her special ability, she has long, dark green hair.

It possesses a unique and peculiar beauty.

However, Charlotte didn't care about any of that.

What he truly cared about was Lorna Dane's identity and her abilities.

That's where Lorna Dane's value lies.

.....

Charlotte, though she prefers to do things on her own.

But I don't mind having more subordinates.

He even wanted to draw inspiration from the X-Men and Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutants.

He founded a mutant organization.

The purpose, of course, is to better harvest fear points.

No matter how vicious a person is, the fear they can cause is always limited.

Unless Charlotte truly grows to the point of causing catastrophe.

Otherwise, the fear a terrifying organization can generate far exceeds that of a single individual.

Therefore, Charlotte had been thinking about how to find a group of trusted subordinates.

It's just that we haven't found a good target yet.

However, the appearance of Lorna Dane brought Charlotte an unexpected surprise.

Without a doubt, Lorna Dane is a very suitable subordinate.

She is very capable and has great potential.

Moreover, his thoughts are very similar to Charlotte's; both of them harbor a deep hatred for humanity.

In addition, Lorna Dayne is Magneto's daughter.

Through her, it would be easy to gain Magneto's approval.

They even managed to win over Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutants.

By any measure, it is a high-value target.

So Charlotte saved her.

...

However, Charlotte still harbors desires for Lorna Dayne.

However, it wasn't outwardly apparent.

After glancing at Lorna Dane a few times.

Charlotte said, "Alright, girl, you're safe now."

"Get a good night's sleep, and tomorrow I'll figure out a way to leave this city as soon as possible."

"This place might not be safe in a while."

After saying that, Charlotte turned to leave.

But Lorna Dayne spoke up: "Wait a moment, Lady Charlotte."

"I...I want to follow you."

Just as Charlotte had suspected, Lorna Dayne was no ordinary person.

They are even less likely to leave easily.

Otherwise, Polaris in the original comics wouldn't have created a mutant organization to fight against humanity.

She's like another Magneto.

They all look forward to the day when they will take revenge on humanity.

And now, after meeting Charlotte.

What other form of revenge could be better than working together with Charlotte?

Charlotte turned around after hearing Lorna Dane's words.

Looking at this mutant girl with a somewhat uneasy expression.

After thinking for a moment, Charlotte politely declined, saying, "I'm very happy that you agree with me, but I still can't agree to your request."

"It's too dangerous to follow me, you know. Those humans would love to shoot me right now."

"So, leave. I'll handle my own affairs."

What appears to be a rejection is actually a ploy to lure the prey into a trap.

As it turns out, Charlotte was very good at judging people.

Lorna Dane shook her head stubbornly: "Mr. Charlotte, I am not afraid of danger."

"And, moreover, I want to become someone like you."

"If you would let me join you in this effort, to make those damned humans pay the price, I would be truly honored!"

At this moment, Lorna Dayne is facing Charlotte.

It's like a die-hard fangirl facing her idol.

Even if an idol has to be at odds with the whole world.

Lorna Dane would choose to be with Charlotte without even blinking an eye.

Of course, this is also related to Lorna Dane's own beliefs.

All I can say is that her philosophy is so similar to Charlotte's!

.....

For humans.

Charlotte is undoubtedly a number one villain.

He was an executioner, a terrorist.

However, for most mutants...

Charlotte is a leader, a totem, and a spiritual icon.

Charlotte's revenge against humanity is increasingly ruthless.

The mutants, on the contrary, will admire him even more.

Because I can empathize with them so deeply.

If you're not a mutant, you really can't understand the hatred mutants have for humans.

This hatred did not come overnight.

It wasn't instigated by any mutant.

Rather, it stems from the accumulation of continuous discrimination and persecution over a long period of time.

If you are treated like pigs or dogs by humans.

If your friend suddenly becomes a pile of rotten flesh on a human experimental table.

You will feel the same way, hating humanity.

This has nothing to do with good or evil; it's purely a matter of perspective.

.....

Facing Lorna Dane's determined gaze.

This time, Charlotte did not refuse.

If he refused again, he feared that Lorna Dane would really just leave.

Too much of a good thing is bad; enough is enough.

So, under Lorna Dane's expectant gaze, Charlotte finally nodded.

Seeing that Charlotte had agreed to let him stay.

Lorna Dane was so excited that she spun around several times on the spot.

awesome.

She will be able to do something great for her fellow mutants, just like Charlotte.

However, Charlotte wouldn't let her get too carried away: "I acknowledge your will, but let me make this clear from the start."

"First of all, you have to follow my instructions. You can't cause trouble without my orders, understand?"

Lorna Dane nodded decisively.

She understands.

He is a down-on-his-luck mutant who spends most of his life on the streets.

She knew all too well what her younger brother should do.

Just listen to the boss unconditionally, and that's it.

Charlotte then added, "Also, your strength is a bit weak."

"With your potential, you can be even stronger."

"During this time, you should focus on developing your own abilities."

"I'll find you a batch of books; take a look at them yourself."

Upon hearing this, Lorna Dane, who had been in high spirits just moments before, immediately looked dejected.

"Oh, me? I study?"

Lorna Dane looked miserable.

What she hates most is studying.

That's normal.

Can you expect a mutant who spends his life on the streets to love reading?

However, this is beyond doubt.

"Believe me, reading more books will only benefit your abilities."

Charlotte said to Lorna Dayne.

Why are students at mutant schools almost always stronger than wild mutants?

It's because they study.

That's because knowledge is power.
