Sending His Son

He-El frowned slightly, set down the wineglass in his hand, and looked at the equally astonished T'Challa.

Clearly, even T'Challa had not known that his father intended for him to study under He-El.

T'Challa greatly admired He-El. Any human on Earth, unless they were a deranged lunatic, would admire what He-El had done for humanity.

T'Challa had no objections to studying under He-El for a while.

Princess Shuri, however, seemed to realize something. Her expression changed abruptly as she tried to stop T'Chaka, only for him to raise a hand and halt her.

"There is no need, T'Chaka." He-El shook his head lightly and placed his wineglass on the table.

Under ordinary circumstances, one might assume that the King of Wakanda was sending someone to monitor the use and distribution of Vibranium, as well as to command the troops Wakanda had deployed.

But considering that Vivian had once infiltrated Wakanda's network, causing every electronic device in Wakanda to go berserk and turn into a weapon—

Princess Shuri's sudden change in expression showed that she had guessed her father was not sending her brother to study under He-El, nor to oversee the use of Vibranium, nor to command Wakanda's forces.

He was using her brother as a hostage, placing him at He-El's side to prove that Wakanda had no ulterior motives.

"It is not as you think." T'Chaka shook his head.

He truly had not intended to send his son under He-El's command as though he were a hostage.

Rather, he knew that if Vivian could control Wakanda's network, then she could control the networks of the entire world.

That meant no electronic device could escape Vivian's control, although even Wakanda did not know how she had achieved it.

But without a doubt, the man before him—He-El—effectively possessed the entire world.
