The moment Richard saw Natasha, he showed an embarrassed smile and waved bravely.
"Hi, Natasha, I'm back!"
Natasha's flying footsteps paused for a moment, but then rushed into Richard's arms at an even faster speed.
As if she hadn't seen Vivian, the red-haired girl hugged the man's waist tightly and confided passionately. "Richard, you are finally back! I miss you so much!"
When Vivian saw Natasha, she was amazed by the young Black Widow. But then she narrowed her eyes and began to look at him with interest.
"My dear, it's time for you to introduce us to each other..."
"Uh..." Richard twitched the corner of his mouth, and a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
Vivian is very smooth, but there seems to be some problem with her sexual orientation...
Before meeting Richard, the most common place she went to was a striptease club, and the most common thing she did was to book the venue and let the strippers perform for her alone...
Could she be targeting Natasha?!!!
Richard carefully observed Vivian's expression anxiously. Unexpectedly, Vivian gave him a wink.
Damn it!!!
Richard's heart fell to the bottom instantly. She really had her eyes on Natasha. Her eyes seemed charming, but in fact they were full of provocation!
Natasha let go of Richard, held his arm affectionately, and looked at Vivian carefully. "Richard, who is this aunt?"
Ah, aunt???
Upon hearing this title, Vivian's smiling face froze, her palms suddenly clenched into fists, and a hint of chill appeared in her emerald green eyes.
Richard's heart also skipped a beat. Vivian's biggest taboo is for others to mention her age. Natasha's words of 'aunt' just hit Vivian's taboo.
He suddenly regretted bringing Vivian directly to Sky Fortress...
"Natasha, this is Vivian...Vivian, this is Natasha..."
Richard quickly introduced both parties.
Natasha:...
Vivian:...
The two women rolled their eyes almost simultaneously.
The introduction is very good, no need to introduce it next time...
Vivian suddenly gave a sweet laugh, walked over and hugged Natasha's slender waist, and winked at Richard: "I won't bother you, a grown man, to introduce us to you, Natasha, right? Let's chat together?"
Natasha had no stage fright, she replied with a smile, "Okay, Vivian 'aunt'~"
It's 'Auntie' again~
Vivian's expression did not change, he just hugged the round arms of Natasha's slender waist and suddenly stiffened, revealing the outline of his muscles.
"Let's go then, little... sister, this is your territory. Thank you for showing me around~"
Natasha couldn't help but hum. She frowned slightly and hugged Vivian's waist with her backhand, treating him the same way he did.
Richard watched the two women hugging each other affectionately and leaving the office like good sisters. He stretched out his hand worriedly. "You..."
Don't start a fight!!!
Richard sighed and drew a Portal.
Kamar-Taj, Main hall.
Richard and Ancient One sit facing each other.
He introduced the entire process of this cross-border trip to Ancient One in detail.
After listening to Source Star's experience, Ancient One exclaimed in amazement, "... A magic circle is set up on a planet?! This is really comparable to the level of Earth's Three Sanctums Defense Formation!"
Richard smiled and shook his head, "Thanks to the creatures of Source Star and my help from that world, I was able to succeed by chance."
Ancient One gave him a meaningful look and said, "You still don't know how strong you are, Richard..."
Richard blinked, suddenly alert, Ancient One doesn't want to retire now?!!!
No! Absolutely not!
He quickly stood up and said, "Sorcerer Supreme, it suddenly occurred to me that there is still something to do. Let's talk next time! Let's talk next time!"
After saying that, he bowed hastily, turned around and left in a hurry.
Ancient One was startled, smiled and shook his head, "Escape? Haha, you will have to take this class sooner or later..."
After leaving the main hall, Richard met Jonathan·Pangborn on the way back to Dormitory.
Jonathan saluted respectfully. "Richard Sorcerer, it would be great to see you before leaving!"
Richard was stunned. "Jonathan? Are you leaving Kamar-Taj?!"
Jonathan nodded and said, "Yes, Richard Sorcerer, I just finished saying goodbye to Master Mordo. Christine Sorcerer said you were out and haven't returned, so I thought I couldn't say goodbye to you in person before leaving!"
Richard frowned slightly and asked, "Why did you leave so suddenly?"
A wry smile appeared on Jonathan's face, "I haven't made any progress for a long time. No matter how hard I practice, I can't make any further progress."
"Master Mordo suggested that I go down the mountain and return to secular life. I thought about it carefully and agreed."
"Maybe after a few years of training in the secular world, I might be able to break through the shackles."
Richard is a little silent. He can be regarded as the guide for Jonathan to enter the world of Magic. He also witnessed how hard he practiced in Kamar-Taj...
But qualifications do determine the upper limit of each Kamar-Taj Sorcerer. The upper limit of energy that some people's bodies can bear is right there, and no matter how hard you work, it's difficult to make any progress.
He remembered that in the Doctor Strange movie, Jonathan also left Kamar-Taj and returned to United States.
"Okay, if you need anything in the future, you can contact me. If my phone cannot be reached, you can call Christine or Senior Brother Mordo."
Jonathan nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, Richard Sorcerer. If it weren't for you, I might have committed suicide now!"
"Actually, it's good to go back to United States. My mother is getting older and needs my care."
"Fortunately, my body has recovered and I don't need to worry about my life after returning."
Richard patted his shoulder and encouraged. "Come on, I hope to see you again at Kamar-Taj in the future."
Jonathan saluted respectfully again. "Yes, Richard Sorcerer, please take care of yourself."
Saying goodbye to Jonathan, Richard went straight back to Dormitory, changed clothes, and opened Portal again.
California Malibu, Seaside Villa.
Tony Stark has locked himself in the research and development room for three or four days.
After Pepper Potts received the news, she rushed to the villa immediately. But no matter how she called Tony, Tony never came out.
When asking Jarvis, Jarvis repeatedly stated that Tony was conducting a very important research work, and that he was in good mental and physical health.
Pepper called Richard, but no one answered. He asked Simmons about Richard's situation, and Simmons said that his boss was out and he couldn't contact him.
She had no choice but to temporarily move her office to the Seaside Villa, and always pay attention to the situation of Tony to prevent accidents.
At lunch time, Pepper arrived with a plate of fruit pizza.
The pizza is mixed with ground beef, which can ensure Tony's daily needs for protein and fat, and the layer of chopped fruit can supplement vitamins.
At this time, a Crimson Portal appeared outside the research and development room, and an expression of surprise suddenly appeared on Pepper's face.
