Chapter 10

"This tea sure is good. Your tea-brewing skills are worthy of praise."

I was standing in front of the magical, female version of a certain baldy hero as I drank fragrant tea. Her eyes full of wisdom had a slight trace of fear as they looked into mines. We were both sitting, alone, facing each other as the atmosphere in the room became tense.

She gradually calmed down and broke the silence.

"Thank you for your praise, I've dabbled in the art of tea for a few years already, and yet, I've never heard of such a powerful being like you being on Earth."

I chuckled at that and shook my head.

"That's something coming from the current Sorcerer Supreme. Anyways, I'm Arthur Dawnstar, and I come in peace."

She had a 'of-course, and-Dormammu-is-Santa-Claus-too' look on her face as she opened her mouth.

"Then why did you break my sanctuary's barriers?"

I slightly sweatdropped at that.

///////Flashback makes a comeback!//////

I flew around Kamar-Taj as I admired their barrier-construction skills, which had me discover that they were less effective on Prana by using a Scan spell. I then 'saw' the Ancient one drinking tea alone in a room, which awoke my inner-troll.

'Alfred, get ready to record her face.'

<Blackmail section Magic Marvel folder opened, ready to record.>

I'm so proud of him!

I prepared my prank, then used teleportation to appear right in front of her followed by a 'stealing' spell to get her pan… teacup in my hand.

By the time her eyes constricted, I already drank a sip from the boiling hot concoction.

"This tea sure is good. Your tea-brewing skills are worthy of praise."

///////Flashback marital affairs coming to light! is his career coming to an end?!///////

"Sorry about that, I didn't think they would break just by teleporting inside."

I cheekily smiled under her intense stare as she waved her hand, and using what I assume is the time stone, restored the barriers. Seeing that she was done, I began to explain the purpose of my unexpected visit.

....

A few minutes after I was done, she finally looked up to answer.

"So if I correctly understood, you are inviting me to an unknown world-protecting organization that you created so that I can be your magic instructor, is that right?"

I nodded. "That's about it."

"What's even the name of your organization?"

"I was thinking of the 'Men in Black'."

She looked clueless and shook her head. "Why would you invite me, a woman, to your group of men then?"

'Shit! I forgot about the third movie!'

"Then what about 'The Guardians'? it's still not decided so you can add your suggestions too." (AN: 'wink to the readers')

"Why would I even want to join your group when I'm already doing the same thing with my disciples?"

" I have three reasons to give you. The first is to promote your personal growth, as I wish to exchange magical knowledge with you. As you may have seen, I use a completely different magical system than you."

She nodded.

"The second one is about the future of this world. You should know about a few of them with the visions you got from the Time stone which Earth barely managed to survive from, but the moment you die to let Stephen Strange become the new Sorcerer Supreme is a turning point since all the infinity stones become involved."

She was slightly shocked that I knew so much but still listened to me. I then projected a few of my 'memories' of the movie 'Infinity War' to show her Thanos' involvement as well as the death of half of the universe's population.

"As you can see, this is the future that you couldn't predict, where all of Earth'mightiest heroes got owned, leading to countless death. I want to avoid any such potential futures by creating a united group of people ranging from humans, mutants, sorcerers and all potential allies of Earth who can learn about the different powers in existence to grow stronger. So basically a 'school' of sort where they can learn more about their powers and where you can be a 'teacher'."

She had a certain look in her eyes which gave me confidence that the deal was as good as done.

She then asked me. "What about the third reason?"

"I can give you a different kind of immortality…

Now she was really shocked.

…you would no longer need the dimensional energy of the Dark dimension and no longer risk getting caught by Dormammu."

"How did you discover that?"

I smiled at that and closed my eyes.

"I have my ways…"

Then opened them with the Tenshingan fully active.
