~7 min read 1,268 words

"My father is Magneto, that's true, but it's not you—it's another Magneto!"

I am Magneto.

Your father is also Magneto.

But your father isn't me, but another Magneto?

Erik was so tangled up by this complex relationship that he couldn't handle it.

What is all this?

He didn't believe there was another Magneto in this world, nor would he allow anyone else to use the name Magneto.

There is only one Magneto, and that is him!

Erik furrowed his brows and said coldly: "I need an explanation. What is going on here? Is she... my daughter or not?!"

"You could say yes, and you could say no."

Su Quan explained the parallel universe and the concept of doubles, leaving Erik stunned.

It wasn't that his reaction was slow or that he couldn't accept new things; it was just that the world was changing too fast. He had only been in prison for a dozen years, and now parallel worlds and doubles had appeared?

However, with this explanation, Polaris's words became clear.

"You are the daughter of the Magneto from a parallel universe, which is to say, the daughter of my double?" Erik asked Polaris.

Polaris nodded.

Erik's mood was somewhat complex. Although it felt absurd when he first heard Polaris was his daughter, she was still his daughter, and he felt quite happy and excited inside.

But now being told she was the daughter of another version of himself left him unsure of what he should be feeling; he could only describe it as a mix of gain and loss, a whirlwind of emotions.

Su Quan patted Erik on the shoulder: "The daughter is gone, do you want a son? I guarantee he is your biological son."

This time, not only was Erik stunned, but Professor Charles and Polaris were also stunned!

Erik: I have a biological son?

Professor Charles: He has a biological son?

Polaris: I have a cheap little brother?

Erik looked at Su Quan nervously: "Are you messing with me? Is he... really my biological son?"

He emphasized the words "biological son" heavily!

Su Quan smiled and affirmed: "I'm really not messing with you. He is truly your biological son."

Erik said excitedly: "Where is he? What's his name?!"

"Come with me. I'll take you out of here so you can be reunited with your son," Su Quan said, changing the subject with a smile.

The Magneto of this world could no longer easily become one of the leaders of the mutants like the Magneto in other worlds.

He had no underlings, no achievements, and had been in prison for over a decade.

Neither his personal reputation nor the Brotherhood of Mutants, which had existed in name only shortly after its founding, was enough to establish a great name for him.

Currently, the strongest forces in the mutant circle were Void Island, followed by the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters and the Hellfire Club. Magneto and his Brotherhood of Mutants had no chance to grow strong or create new glory.

Most importantly, the experiences of his first half of life prevented him from developing the unbridled ambition seen in the original plot.

The current Magneto was at best just a powerful mutant. Following Su Quan, who was powerful and influential, was no shame!

Regarding Su Quan's recruitment, Erik didn't feel embarrassed either; after all, from the moment they met, Su Quan's strength and status had always been transcendent.

"Fine."

"From now on, I will follow you."

Erik accepted the recruitment. On one hand, given Su Quan's strength and status, following him was no shame and wouldn't hurt his self-esteem.

If it were Professor Charles, Erik wouldn't accept it even if he were at the end of his rope.

On the other hand, he had had enough of staying here; he didn't want to continue wasting his life, and he wanted to see his son!

Su Quan was very satisfied with Erik's decisiveness. If he had been hesitant and dawdling, well—he wouldn't have hidden the news about Quicksilver, but Erik would never have dreamed of getting out of here in this lifetime.

I gave you a chance, you refused, and you still expect me not to be angry? Is that possible?

"Clap!"

The sound of a finger snap fell.

The world shifted, and space-time changed.

Erik only felt like he had blinked, and he had gone from the Pentagon's underground prison, known for its tightest security, to the front door of an apartment.

He looked at Su Quan in awe; such a method without any warning was truly unfathomable and impossible to guard against!

"Bang!"

Su Quan moved his mind slightly, and the door opened by itself instantly.

The moment the door opened, a silver-haired boy swooshed in front of them. From his perspective, the flow of time was so slow it was almost static.

He frowned as he sized them up, leisurely flipping through the wallet he had found on Professor Charles to confirm the identities of this group.

At the same time, he looked curiously at Erik, who was wearing a prison uniform.

"Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters?" Looking at the business card in the wallet, Quicksilver looked at Professor Charles with some surprise, then came to Su Quan.

There were four people in total. He had finished looking at Professor Charles, Erik was wearing a prison uniform and had nothing to carry, and Polaris was a woman, so he didn't want to make a move on her; therefore, his second target could only be Su Quan.

As a result, just as he arrived in front of Su Quan, Quicksilver discovered that the other person was looking at him with a smile, which gave him a sudden fright.

"You... you can see me?" Quicksilver asked in surprise.

Su Quan shrugged: "Your speed is too slow."

"Me? My speed is too slow?"

Quicksilver couldn't help but laugh. If you were talking about anything else, fine, but speed? Heh—then we have something to talk about!

"Swoosh—"

Quicksilver's expression turned stern, and he reached out directly to grab Su Quan.

"Bang!"

A collision sound rang out abruptly.

The sudden noise made everyone subconsciously look at the wall facing the door in the room. Quicksilver was pressed against the wall, grinning, with a look of astonishment.

So, so fast!

I was the one who was supposed to grab him, so when did I get pressed against the wall by him?!

Quicksilver, unconvinced, was just about to move when he felt a shadow flicker before his eyes, and he was pressed back against the wall once again.

He couldn't see the other person's movements at all!

"Are... are you okay?"

Although he didn't know his identity yet, Erik felt that since Su Quan brought them here, this silver-haired boy was most likely his son.

"I..." Quicksilver was just about to speak when he hit the wall again.

"I..."

"Bang!"

"I'm fine..."

"Bang!"

"Enough!"

"Bang!"

Every time Quicksilver said a word, he would be hit once. This feeling of being unable to control himself and having no way to resist made him so frustrated he couldn't help but roar.

Then, he was hit against the wall again!

Growing up, he had always been the one using super speed to play with others. This was the first time he had been played with by someone using even faster speed, which almost made him explode with anger.

The most frustrating thing was that he discovered the people outside the room didn't seem to know it was that person's doing, and instead were looking at him with expressions like he was a "fool"!
