[Extra] Xiwen and Strange (3)

Xiwen's Sub-Soul returned to his body, but his eyes still looked somewhat dazed.

"How is it?" Strange asked.

"Not very good." Xiwen rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"I didn't ask you how you were; I asked how the footage you saw was!" Strange raised an eyebrow.

Xiwen gave him a disgruntled look and then recounted what she had witnessed.

"So, you were originally the broken soul of a powerful figure in the Wizarding World, and after spending twenty years in this world, you were expelled back?" Strange said in surprise. "That explains it!"

"But I don't even know who I am anymore, I keep changing..." Xiwen said, distressed. "Should I be Xiwen of Kamar-Taj, Rozier of the Wizarding World, or that person whose name I don't know?"

Strange chuckled and helped Xiwen sit down in the chair next to him, then made him a pot of tea.

"To be honest, I've had those concerns too," he said. "When I first discovered that there were countless versions of myself in countless Multiverses, I began to doubt the meaning of my own existence."

"But then I realized that no matter how many universes there are, or how many Stephen Stranges there are, I am still just me. There's absolutely no need to be bothered by those trivial things. Just live your own life!"

Xiwen took a sip of hot tea and nodded silently.

"That's true." He shook his head with a smile. "In the end, I'm lucky no matter what, to have survived until now. And now I'm even able to return to this world with the help of my Sub-Soul."

"So how did you finally defeat that Demon God?" Strange asked curiously. "And according to you, you even completely annihilated him? How did you do that?"

"You'll have to ask your teacher about that," Xiwen laughed. "I once visited an Eternity dimension by chance and saw him there."

Strange's eyes widened.

"Damn it, this isn't fair!" he said angrily. "He left me with this mess, and all he did was go cultivate with the Eternity!"

Xiwen sipped his tea, watching Strange complain with amusement.

He knew, of course, that Strange wasn't entirely telling the truth; at least, he never wanted to leave Earth to train alone. His entanglement with Kree Palmer alone made it impossible for him to leave Earth, not to mention the deepening cooperation with the Avengers. At this point, Doctor Strange had gradually become the pillar and soul of this world.

Once he calmed down, Xiwen put down his teacup and then asked about the matter he had come here to resolve:

"I feel it's necessary to ask you, besides Mutants, mages, mutants, and contractors of Demon Gods, can this world also accept wizards?"

"Actually, there are wizards in this world too, so it's not a big problem." Strange thought for a moment, then said, "As long as you don't care about the various external dangers in this universe, you can send the wizards over at any time. It just so happens that I can have an extra force to resist foreign invasion."

"Don't worry, I'll send some of those restless wizards over. How you command them to fight off the invasion is up to you!"

The two exchanged a smile, having clearly dealt with the restless wizards of the Wizarding World.
