Right or Wrong (Part 2)

Charlotte Doyle got out of bed, quickly washed up in her room, and then pushed open the front door.

At this moment, the maid at the door saw Charlotte come out and said, "Mage Charlotte, the God King is waiting for you in the main hall."

"Take me there."

Following the palace maids, Charlotte arrived at the main hall of the Asgard.

At this moment, only Odin and Frigga were present. Upon seeing Charlotte's arrival, Odin spoke:

"Ancient One had something to attend to and left first."

"What materials do you need to construct the magic circle? Please provide a list, and Asgard will cover all of that."

Charlotte didn't stand on ceremony when she heard such good news first thing in the morning.

"Okay, I'll draw up a list of materials in a bit."

A normal Merlin Array does not require any magical materials for teleportation between Earth and the Magic World. Even Charlotte's use of a magic circle to send herself back to Earth did not require any magical materials.

After all, on Earth, Charlotte and the Magic World already had beacons placed by Merlin that allowed them to reach directly.

However, a magic circle is needed as a beacon for navigation from Earth to Asgard, since the distance between the two is extremely vast, and Asgard has a corresponding protective magic circle. Without the acceptance and marking of the space teleportation, one cannot directly enter Asgard.

Charlotte didn't care why the Ancient One left early.

With the Ancient One present, Earth is indeed very safe; Ancient One can easily solve all problems.

After Charlotte compiled the list of magical materials, she handed it to Frigga, but Charlotte increased the amount of items on the list by 30%.

After seeing the list of materials, Frigga simply nodded without raising any objections. Although she was also a Mage, she was unfamiliar with Merlin Magic.

With all the magical materials in place, Charlotte began to draw Merlin Magic Circle and set up spatial beacons in a specially designated area outside the palace.

Earth.

Tony is in his underground Villa, developing his latest suit of armor.

Since his return, first Pepper Potts came to his door, and then Rhodey, both of them interrupting Tony's research to varying degrees.

But because one was his lover and the other was his friend, he endured it all.

But today, the Villa's gate was opened again.

"Sir, my program has been modified, and the Villa's gate has been opened."

"Damn it, who's bothering me now?"

Tony put down his work and came up from the underground Laboratory.

The person who came was none other than Nick Fury, the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.. However, Nick Fury did not want to come. He originally wanted to hand Tony over to a S.H.I.E.L.D.. base and show him some information, but Tony did not play by the rules. After returning, he did not leave the Villa at all. If he wanted to see him, he had to come here by himself.

Seeing that it was the One-Eyed Dragon in front of him, Tony said irritably, "What is it now that I have to make you come to my door again?"

Nick Fury placed the two documents he was holding on the table.

Seeing the other person's behavior, Tony walked to the sofa and picked up the documents on the table.

<Avengers Preliminary Report>

"I don't want you to see that report; I'm not sure it's relevant to you."

He then picked up another document and said, "But this one is related to you."

"It's Agent Romanoff's assessment of you."

"See for yourself!"

Tony snatched the report from Nick Fury's hand; he wanted to see what tricks the head of the secret service was up to this time.

Tony flipped through the report, looking at the analysis.

Personality Analysis: Stark often acts impulsively, has self-destructive tendencies, and is a typical narcissist.

Avengers Recruitment Assessment Report: Tony Stark Not Recommended.

After reading the report, Tony immediately said:

"Nick Fury, if you're so free, find something to do. My time is very valuable; it's not for me to spend time looking at evaluation reports."

"And also, I have absolutely no interest in your Super Boy Band."

After speaking, Tony threw the report in his hand onto the table. In Tony's opinion, this assessment was like shit, full of outdated information.

Having experienced the great war in the Magic World, Tony had no fondness for this childish alliance. Extraordinary forces had been secretly protecting the world for countless centuries.

In the Magic World, Tony had already learned through communication that the Magic World was a barrier against external attacks, and that if the Magic World were breached, Earth would also suffer disaster.

Such beings are not limited to Merlin's lineage; there are other extraordinary beings as well. The ninjas behind Charlotte and the extraordinary forces he has not yet come into contact with are all working silently.

This intelligence organization, however, believes that world peace is something they have achieved through their own efforts—it's utterly ridiculous.

If he hadn't known that his father was one of the founders of this organization, he wouldn't have even wanted to retain his position as an advisor.

Tony tossed down the documents, turned around, and said, "If there's nothing else, please leave. I still have work to do."

Looking at Tony, who was completely different from what he had expected, Nick Fury frowned. This reaction was very unlike Tony's. What had Tony gone through during his two days at the Continental Hotel?

"Washington D.C.. is preparing to award medals to you, Charlotte, and Rhodey."

Tony waved his hand. "No interest. I'll have Pepper Potts collect it for me. Charlotte probably won't have time either, so Ginny will collect it for her."

Watching Tony's departing figure, Nick Fury frowned, thinking to himself, "What happened? Something I don't know?"

Nick Fury watched Tony leave, then drove straight back to the Triskelion without lingering in the Villa.

Tony, who had arrived at the Laboratory downstairs, looked at the projection screen in front of him, thought for a moment, and then said, "Jarvis, it seems I need to upgrade you, otherwise anyone can just barge into my Villa and interrupt my experiments."

"I'm so sorry, sir!"

······

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside Nick Fury's office at the Triskelion.

"Sir, here are two documents you need to take a look at."

Nick Fury took the two documents from Coulson and casually flipped through the first one.

Looking at the photo of Charlotte Doyle's Agency on the document, he said with some surprise:

Wasn't his Agency bombed?

"Did something happen during the reconstruction?"

Coulson stood to the side, his expression serious, and said, "Director, this photo was just taken today."

"Filmed today?"

Nick Fury paused for a moment, then looked at the document carefully before exclaiming in surprise, "His Agency has been restored to its pre-bombing state!"

"How is this possible?"

"Could it be that ninjas possess the ability to reverse time? That's impossible."

Coulson chimed in, "Perhaps it's the ability to restore broken objects."

Nick Fury touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Your guess is more reasonable."

"Did you go to see Charlotte to request a mission?"

"Sir, his Agency hasn't reopened; it's closed. I haven't seen Charlotte Doyle."

"Is he not here?"

"Sir, I'm not sure about that, but I can't rule out that possibility."

Nick Fury nodded. Although he wasn't sure why Charlotte's Agency had been restored, he was certain that she had gained another ability.

Then open the second document.

The first thing that catches the eye is a photo of an Asian person.

Coulson, who was standing nearby, reported, "Sir, we were asked to investigate whether there were Mage hiding within the Magician community. Although we haven't found Mage after this period of investigation, we have discovered some unusual things."

"This man is named Chen Haoran, a street Magician in Hong Kong. According to our investigation, he possesses the ability to control fire, able to create flames out of thin air with his hands without being harmed by them."

"He was discovered by our agents in Hong Kong after he performed street magic using flames."

Nick Fury flipped through the documents in his hand, then asked, "He's not Mage?"

"No, according to the Hong Kong detectives' investigation, Chen Haoran knew nothing about Mage, and his abilities awakened suddenly."

"Is it considered essentially harmless in terms of threat assessment?"

"Yes, the flame he controls is very small and has a large distance limit; it will go out after being thrown more than a meter."

Looking at the evaluation above, Nick Fury pondered for a moment before finally saying, "Arrange for him to come to headquarters and study whether it can enhance his strength."

"If the ability to control and create fire is strong enough, then that Superhuman."

"Ninjas and Mage are both groups capable of cultivation. This street Magician who can create flames out of thin air could also enhance his strength if a suitable method is found."

"Yes, sir!"

"Also, once Charlotte's Agency opens, we'll immediately commission intelligence to confirm information about the Asgard."

"We can't just listen to Jane Foster and the others; it's entirely possible they are other Superhuman hiding in the shadows."

"Understood, sir!"

Coulson turned and left Nick Foll's office.

······

The ninjas sent back by Charlotte, Temari, Kankuro, Hinata, Neji formed a team and continued their incomplete cleanup mission, cracking down on human organ smuggling and fraud rings in Southeast Asia.

Kakashi, along with Naruto, Sasuke, and Rock Lee, went to wipe out the last remaining Vampire clan in Africa.

Meanwhile, Yamato and Itachi Uchiha, who remained in New York, were carrying out missions at the Task Gathering Hall every day, completing one mission request each day.

Meanwhile, Tsunade and Shizune continued their research on the Super Soldier Serum, determined to develop an enhancer that combined the strengths of Werewolf and Vampire.

As for Mephisto in the Hell Dimension, when he announced the appearance of Prime Merlinian on Earth, the outcome did not occur as he had imagined.

Many dimensional lords and high-ranking Demon expressed no interest, and even Dormammu cursed, "Damn it!"

Earth was already incredibly difficult to deal with, with the Ancient One protecting it. Unexpectedly, Merlin, who had run away, found a successor and left behind the legacy of Prime Merlinian to protect Earth together.

As for the true strength of the newly appointed Prime Merlinian, no one wanted to go to Earth to assess it before the Ancient One stepped down. Otherwise, they would not only be facing Prime Merlinian alone, but also a double whammy of Prime Merlinian and the Ancient One. Even if the newly appointed Prime Merlinian's strength was average, he could not be weak after receiving the title, especially with the Ancient One around.

Mephisto's little scheme thus vanished without a trace, having no effect whatsoever.

······

Asgard.

Charlotte was still setting up Merlin Array. Because it was her first time setting up a beacon, Charlotte's efficiency was greatly reduced, and it took longer than expected.

Just as Charlotte was working hard, Thor walked over.

"Charlotte, I think we need to conduct an experiment after the magic circle is set up. What do you think of me as the test subject?"

Seeing Thor recommending himself, Charlotte stopped what she was doing and said, "Thor, my Merlin Array is more of a beacon, used to locate Asgard."

"He's not the Bifrost; he doesn't have that kind of teleportation power. With my strength, I can't send you back to Earth, let alone bring you back."

"Moreover, with the news of the Bifrost's shattering spreading, the Nine Realms will soon be in turmoil, and countless wars await you."

When Charlotte mentioned that the destruction of the Bifrost would trigger a war, Thor's expression darkened. He even questioned whether his actions had been right or wrong.

To save Jotunheim, he destroyed the Bifrost and lost his brother. Although he had learned from his father that Loki was not his biological brother, the bond of thousands of years made no difference, and he could never see Jane again.

However, destroying the Bifrost would instead lead to chaos and war in the Nine Realms, which contradicts his original intention.

He even questioned himself whether all of this was the right thing to do.

Seeing Thor's worried face, Charlotte sat down on the ground and continued, "Don't think too much about it. Maybe it won't be long before you have the chance to visit Earth and see Jane."

Thor's expression hadn't recovered. "I only wanted to prevent war from happening, I didn't expect it to cause even bigger and more wars."

Seeing Thor contemplating war, Charlotte didn't try to dissuade him. Instead, she rose and continued sketching Merlin Array, but still offered guidance. "Perhaps you could ask the God King what your father's opinion is."

Upon hearing Charlotte's suggestion to ask Odin, Thor pondered for a moment before taking Mjolnir and heading towards Odin's palace.
