Magneto Steps In

Who was Morgan le Fay?

The great King Arthur's daughter, the legendary wizard Merlin's apprentice!

The noble Princess Morgan!

And some mortal had actually dared to attack her over a rundown house?

Such stupidity was unforgivable!

"Mortal, you have angered me!"

Morgan le Fay cried furiously.

"Angered you? Then what are you going to do about it?"

Sean replied upon hearing the witch's shout.

"You will be punished, foolish mortal!"

Morgan le Fay answered angrily.

She answered!

A channel of communication had been established!

The nightmare of every gout sufferer descended upon her!

Symptoms of late-stage gouty arthritis abruptly appeared throughout Morgan le Fay's body.

How painful was gout?

Anyone who had never experienced it could never understand that agonizing, wish-for-death kind of pain!

And this was late-stage gout, at that.

Without a moment's hesitation, Sean threw this trump-card illness at Morgan le Fay.

It was quite a gift. Though it was not worth 150 kilograms, this arthritis was still worth 30 kilograms.

This was not a disease that could be cured merely by possessing regenerative abilities.

Sean was not worried in the slightest that the witch might have such an ability.

Even Wolverine would only be able to lie on the ground and howl in agony if he got this disease.

Because the stronger your regenerative ability, the deeper your suffering.

Gout occurred when urate crystals formed in the joints. No matter how strong your regeneration was, you could not break down those things.

A stone was a stone. It would hurt however it was supposed to hurt.

Morgan le Fay was in such agony that even the slightest movement of her body was unbearable. She had been born noble—a duke's daughter, King Arthur's adopted daughter, and the student of the wizard Melinda.

She had lived in luxury since childhood. When had she ever suffered like this?

The intense pain directly shattered Morgan le Fay's reason!

An immense sense of danger rose from the witch.

Even Sean felt it!

"I've got a bad feeling about this!"

Sean blurted out.

Ava Ellis felt like her head had doubled in size. The aura surrounding the witch was extremely familiar to her—it was the aura of an ancient god of Earth.

One of the oldest ones!

Gaia, the Earth Goddess!

If Sean knew what Ava Ellis was thinking, he would definitely have said for her: For fuck's sake!

When a woman over sixty meters tall appeared before everyone...

Even Storm blurted out, "WTF!"

Once the goddess Gaia appeared, this was no longer merely a dispute between Sean and the witch over a house.

Who was Gaia?

Billions of years ago, this goddess and her son, Atum, the god of life, had ended the era of Earth's ancient gods. They killed or drove away the ancient gods and demons rampaging across Earth.

Even powerful demons like Chthon and Set had been forced to flee to other dimensions. (In the original setting, part of the Scarlet Witch's power came from Chthon.)

Gaia's power needed no explanation!

This witch had actually summoned Gaia's physical form. This was practically a disaster!

"Run!"

Ava Ellis grabbed Sean and prepared to flee. She felt they should still have time to leave this dimension.

But Sean did not move. How could he simply run away after his house had been destroyed?

Honestly, Sean could endure anything else, but his obsession with houses... was carved into his bones.

Forget Gaia—even if Gaia's mother came, it would not help!

Sean had little reason left at this point. He shook free of Ava Ellis's hand and strode resolutely toward the witch.

The moment Gaia appeared, she imposed an immensely powerful gravitational field on the surrounding area without distinction.

Storm, Cyclops, and the others were immediately pressed to the ground, utterly unable to move.

Wolverine and Yuriko could barely move as well, struggling to support themselves while half-kneeling on the ground.

Centered on Gaia, the area affected by the increased gravity continued to slowly expand. The short apartment building north of the clinic instantly began to collapse, and the immense gravity prevented even dust from rising!

Gaia was now like another Statue of Liberty. Her appearance instantly drew every eye!

Many people with special identities arrived, both openly and in secret.

"Charles, is this the big trouble you mentioned?"

A tall elderly man stood beside Professor X, who was seated in his wheelchair, and looked at Gaia in the distance.

"Erik, do not underestimate him. He is the most powerful enemy I have ever encountered!"

"Oh? Then he really is quite powerful."

Erik Lehnsherr, also known as Magneto, was the founder of the mutant Brotherhood and the X-Men's greatest adversary. Yet unexpectedly, he was also the professor's friend.

Magneto was extremely arrogant. He did not believe any power could surpass his own!

The cars flattened around Gaia began to rise into the air, transforming into sharp spikes!

Gravity seemed entirely unable to affect these metal spikes as they suddenly accelerated toward Gaia!

Magneto made his move!

But unfortunately, something blocked the spikes at Gaia's body surface. They could not pierce her at all, and they were even softening, seemingly about to turn into liquid...

Magneto frowned. Though he had not used his full strength just now, the complete lack of effect still surprised him.

Magneto gathered even more metal. A small cargo ship drifting along the Hudson River was also caught up in it. Its crew jumped into the river in terror, watching helplessly as their ship flew away!

Magneto gathered over a hundred tons of metal and hurled it at Gaia with all his strength. The metal sphere even broke the sound barrier in midair!

The kinetic energy from such a full-powered blow was terrifying. Magneto did not believe this sixty-meter-tall woman could receive it so casually again!

Sure enough, Gaia did not take the enormous iron ball head-on with her body. Instead, she released an earth-yellow shield of light that blocked Magneto's attack, and the light shield and iron ball began to struggle against each other in midair.

The other X-Men and the Brotherhood members Magneto had brought were completely useless now. They could not even enter the expanding zone of abnormal gravity. Once inside, everyone except a handful of people would be pinned flat to the ground.

Even if they could barely endure it, they would have virtually no combat ability.

"If it continues spreading, it will reach the buildings across the street. If we cannot stop her... this will be a disaster in human history!"

Professor X said solemnly.

But Magneto was disdainful. He had never considered himself human.

"And what does that have to do with me? I only came to do an old friend a small favor. Humans... tch."

Sean knew nothing of the commotion around him. He was now struggling to move closer to the witch Morgan le Fay~

Ever since Gaia appeared, the connection between him and the witch seemed to have been affected. He had not been able to send over the pulmonary embolism he had prepared!

Relying on his limitless stamina, he forced his way through the overwhelming gravity toward the witch~

Sean hardened his heart!

If I don't beat this stinking woman into a pig's head today, then my name isn't Sean!!!

Finally managed to finish a chapter~

I tried voice input... but my Mandarin is just not standard enough~ Voice input has a hard time understanding me~

I'm planning to fix my computer today and see if I can save it~
