Marvel Person: You call this a sorcerer?

Chapter 22 Tony, War is Coming

late at night.

Avengers base.

Ronan sat on the roof of the base, feeling the night breeze.

Above him, stars swirled and the bright moon hung high.

Such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere could not soothe Ronan's restless heart.

No, to be precise, it was his anxious heart.

After meeting the Ancient One in this world, Ronan returned to the Avengers base and has been staying on the rooftop ever since.

The initial excitement of learning about dimensional mirroring has long since vanished.

"Teacher, oh teacher"

"You really know how to give me more responsibilities."

Ronan stared at the sky with a wry smile, his mind still replaying the words the Ancient One had spoken.

What does it mean to follow your heart?

No rules can bind me.

He never imagined that he, a nobody, would encounter so many unexpected situations.

Whether it's that stranger on Vormir or the Ancient One who is now "dead" in this world.

They all brought Ronan some unexpected "surprises".

Of course, whether it will be a pleasant surprise or a shock, nobody knows.

In Ronan's memory, the Ancient One, as the Sorcerer Supreme, always adhered to the various rules of the Sorcerer Supreme, just as she described.

It does not participate in human wars on Earth, nor does it affect the course of any timeline.

Even during alien invasions, she never appeared unless Earth was in danger of destruction.

The Ancient One, who strictly adheres to the rules, and the Strange, who does whatever he wants, are practically worlds apart.

Compared to the Ancient One, Ronan's impression of Strange was absolutely terrible.

If we say that Strange's personality has a side of being reckless and daring, then...

This was evident when he first became the Sorcerer Supreme.

However, when Peter Parker from this universe found him and wanted him to cast the Amnesia Curse, Strange actually agreed!

Keep in mind that five years had passed between when he became the Sorcerer Supreme and when Peter Parker sought his help!

That's five years.

That's enough to turn a complete novice into a mature and composed mage.

Not to mention, he is also the Sorcerer Supreme.

Even so, he still helped Peter Parker cast the "Amnesia Curse".

The Amnesia Curse is an extremely dangerous spell that severely interferes with the course of history and the human mind. Even though Ronan had never encountered it before, he knew that it was very likely a forbidden dark magic spell.

Could it be that Strange has really lost his mind?

Or did he also "follow" his own heart?

Ronan had no idea.

But he was certain that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed.

Especially after connecting all these events, Ronan became even more certain that something he was unaware of had definitely happened.

The only person who could possibly know is the Ancient One.

But as everyone knows, the Ancient One is also a riddle teller.

Normally, it would be fine if he had to guess the thoughts of one riddle teller, but now there are so many riddle tellers.

It was either a hooded man disguising his identity or Kang the Conqueror, who looked harmless but was ridiculously strong.

Even the pattern on Ronan's left hand remains a mystery.

Are you kidding me?

Thinking of this, Ronan looked up at the sky and gave it the middle finger.

"You turned what should have been a superhero movie into a suspense thriller."

"I even prepared the popcorn, and now you want me to solve a riddle?"

"Go to hell!"

Ronan spat fiercely at the sky, seemingly targeting no one in particular.

But adhering to the principle that "escaping is shameful but extremely useful," Ronan didn't want to think about these things anymore.

Isn't it better to watch a live broadcast while munching on popcorn?

Why bother guessing this or that?

In any case, we'll deal with whatever comes our way.

Why waste his time on these riddle-solving people? Ronan is the one who's always out there!

At this moment, Ronan felt much better.

As I said before, if something involves him, he will smooth things over step by step.

If it has nothing to do with him, then it depends on his mood.

As for what others are thinking, Ronan doesn't care!

I don't want to guess!

"I didn't expect to see you here."

"Do you monks all have some kind of peculiar fetish?"

Just as Ronan had further solidified his Dao heart, Tony Stark flew up from below.

Only Tony Stark could fly around in his battle suit at night.

"I have quite a few unusual hobbies, but none of them include flying around in armor at night."

Ronan rolled his eyes and couldn't help but complain.

Tony Stark's primary goal is always to attract attention.

That's how it has always been.

Even in the very last scene, he still had to imitate Thanos and say, "I am Iron Man."

"You're a father now, wouldn't it be better to be more mature and stable?"

Thinking of that final scene, Ronan's eyes rolled so hard they almost reached the sky.

While it's impressive, I'd rather complain.

"Um?"

"Did you know I have a daughter?"

Tony Stark landed next to Ronan, his Iron Man suit slowly receding to reveal his body.

Judging from his attire, he seemed to have just come from the laboratory.

"I not only know you have a daughter, but I also know her name is Morgan, and she's a very lovely little girl."

Seeing the slightly arrogant look in Tony Stark's eyes, Ronan twitched the corner of his mouth.

Arrogant old man!

Didn't you think of your daughter when you snapped your fingers?

"I almost forgot, like Strange, you can see the past and the future."

"But you guys are pretty boring too."

"Isn't the unknown more interesting?"

Given Tony Stark's personality, he clearly has no interest in this kind of thing.

In some ways, such people actually live more freely.

"So, you came to see me so late, not just to discuss these philosophical questions, right?"

Ronan looked into Tony Stark's eyes and a smile appeared on his face.

Because Ronan saw a hint of unease and anxiety on his face.

I'm afraid he's not as carefree about the unknown future as he claims.

"that."

"I know that you wizards and sorcerers are all skilled in divination."

"Although I know those things are mostly fake."

"But other people are not like that."

"There's always an indescribable atmosphere within the team."

"You know, they're not as strong-willed as I am."

Tony Stark shrugged and said something completely irrelevant.

However, Ronan understood what he meant.

"so."

"Did you come to me wanting your future predicted?"

Ronan's smile faded.

"No, no, no, not the future."

"I just want you to calculate whether what we're doing will succeed."

"After all, no one wants to face that slightly pessimistic atmosphere within the team."

Tony Stark shook his head repeatedly, trying to act as if it had nothing to do with him.

However, his missed heartbeat betrayed him.

Ronan slowly turned his head and looked up at the distant night sky.

A gentle breeze brushed against his face, and his constantly swaying hair occasionally obscured Ronan's view.

At that moment, Tony Stark sensed something he had never felt before from Ronan.

He seems different from how he used to be.

It's completely different now!

"Tony, war is coming."
