Ancient One said, "Your battle with the Primordial Demon—beast made me realize other possibilities. Neither I nor Stephen in the future will be enough to destroy Dormammu."
"Is Dormammu really that easy to kill?" Hayato said with a bitter smile.

From Ancient One's attitude toward Strange and Mordo, Hayato vaguely saw Sarutobi Hiruzen's shadow in her. People as pure as them
