Chapter 47: Multiverse Life Core

Why was the Ancient One killed by Kaecilius?

Because she 'saw' Doctor Strange's potential and 'saw' that he was the best successor.

Only when she died could Doctor Strange grow quickly and take on the responsibility of the Sorcerer Supreme.

She might have known long ago that Kaecilius would betray her, but because this was the best result, she didn't stop it.

Otherwise, with the Ancient One's strength, how could Kaecilius escape Kamar-Taj?

After all, Kaecilius wasn't alone when he left, and there were quite a few followers around him.

If the Ancient One couldn't even discover such a big movement, then what multiverse is she defending, and what hammer is she protecting Earth with!

So the Ancient One's fate is actually also 'controlled', she just recognized this 'result' and chose to accept it.

The Ancient One is so powerful, yet her fate is still controlled by 'mortals' like the Time Variance Authority and He Who Remains; it sounds a bit absurd at first thought.

After all, the Time Variance Authority is full of ordinary people, and He Who Remains was stabbed to death by the female Loki, Sylvie.

And the Ancient One's strength doesn't need to be repeated.

Actually, to put it bluntly, the Ancient One is just not strong enough.

There are countless Ancient Ones in countless parallel universes and timelines; although they can involve the multiverse, they cannot involve the core of the multiverse!

On the other hand, He Who Remains, a variant of Kang the Conqueror, triggered the Multiversal War a long, long time ago, finally won, combined the timelines of the multiverse, and controlled the multiverse through the Sacred Timeline.

Although he is a mortal, he is one of the core lives of the multiverse.

Core lives are the cornerstone of the multiverse, very few in number, and have the ability to be pivotal and influence the multiverse.

According to the Watcher, there are four cores in total: Seth-Nig, Wizard Merlin, Kang the Conqueror, and the Scarlet Witch.

Just talking about Kang the Conqueror and the Scarlet Witch, one rules the multiverse, and one breaks the rule of the multiverse.

Core lives, one can see the leopard.

Although it is said that the female Loki, Sylvie, killed He Who Remains and stabbed the multiverse open.

In fact, before she killed He Who Remains, the multiverse had already changed, and the cycle of the Sacred Timeline had already been broken.

And this time is exactly when Wanda officially became the Scarlet Witch and practiced dark magic; the two are not a second apart!

Su Quan is not sure whether it was the female Loki, Sylvie, or the Scarlet Witch, Wanda, who opened the multiverse.

It is even possible that it was Doctor Strange who cast a spell to make the world forget Spider-Man's true identity.

But there is one thing he can be sure of: the Ancient One should not know as much as he does.

After all, the future the Ancient One can see is at most the future He Who Remains can see.

And he can see futures that even He Who Remains cannot see!

The Ancient One knowing that he would become the Lord of the Void in the future is mostly because when she probed others, she incidentally learned about the Void and his identity.

If she could directly probe the Void, she wouldn't be so surprised that she might be pruned and appear in the Void.

"Have you been to the Void?" Su Quan asked with a smile.

The Ancient One shook her head.

"Then how are you sure you haven't been pruned by the Time Variance Authority?"

"Time Variance Authority, so it's called that."

Good guy, I call him a good guy! ===== CHAPTER 49 =====
