Chapter 635

"Yes."

"Then..."

Gwen thought of the scene where the Ancient One said she knew what she wanted to ask before she even opened her mouth.

Obviously.

The Ancient One had already seen the question she would raise in the future, which means this future had already become the Ancient One's past.

The past cannot be changed.

Gwen thought like this in her heart, then looked at the Ancient One curiously: "Master, what if I don't ask?"

According to the Ancient One's statement.

Saw the future, then the future became the past, and the past cannot be changed, but this "past" is determined by the "present."

So...

If she doesn't ask, then this future isn't the future; since it isn't the future, it isn't the past.

Gwen looked at the Ancient One curiously.

The Ancient One smiled and shook her head.

"I saw the future, and it became my past, so, even if you don't ask, my future has already become my past."

"Your future?"

"Yes."

The Ancient One then swiped her right hand across the river of time used for demonstration again; immediately after, the river of time expanded rapidly, also letting Gwen see the other side of the river of time.

That was countless dense lines, so many that they couldn't be added, stacked together, to form the extremely brilliant river of time just now.

"Each line represents a person's time."

"And all things in the universe, everything stacked together, formed this brilliant and magnificent river of time."

"But when I peeked into my future, my future became my past."

"But I am only me as an individual."

"Understood."

Gwen listened to the Ancient One's explanation, nodded thoughtfully, then took a deep breath and looked at the Ancient One: "So, will Hawk and I have children in the future?"

She actually heard everything Seeker said on the Atlantic through the S. H. I. E. L. D. satellite.

Although she didn't show that she cared very much.

But...

She actually cared very much, especially after hearing Seeker say that the higher the life level, the less likely it is to have offspring, she cared even more.

So!

After asking this question, Gwen looked at the Ancient One sitting opposite her without blinking.

The Ancient One didn't speak in riddles either.

"Yes."

"Two sons and one daughter?"

Gwen listened to the Ancient One's answer, and looking at the expression on the Ancient One's face, while her heart suddenly relaxed, she subconsciously asked further.

Although someone has already realized this dream of hers.

But others are others.

She is she.

The Ancient One looked at Gwen, who was indeed very eager to get the answer, and shook her head with a smile.

"No."

"Uh..."

Gwen's expression dimmed.

Just then.

The Ancient One said: "At some point in the future, you and Hawk conceived five sons and five daughters."

Gwen's body shook, her eyes widened, looking at the Ancient One.

"So many?"

"Yes."

"Impossible, right."

Gwen blinked, not quite believing the future the Ancient One said: "I only thought about having one daughter and two sons, just like my dad and mom; I feel three children is just right. Five sons, five daughters? Wouldn't I be doing nothing but giving birth to children?"

Good guy.

Then what did she become?

A birth machine?

Gwen couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

The Ancient One listened to Gwen's soft complaints and smiled without speaking.

After a while.

Gwen, who was complaining softly and couldn't understand why she would have so many children, then seemed to think of something and looked at the Ancient One: "Then, Master, I have one last question."

The Ancient One looked at Gwen with a smile.

Gwen said: "Master, you already know about the existence of Jean, Billy, and Tang Mi, right?"

The Ancient One nodded.

"The past cannot be changed."

"I know."

Gwen also nodded: "Jean seems to have inherited Hawk's ability, but Billy and Tang Mi don't seem to have inherited it. I want to ask, my children..."

The Ancient One's smile was brilliant.

"Jean inherited it because she was born before Hawk proposed to you."

"Billy and Tang Mi didn't inherit it because Hawk had already proposed to you before this."

"Uh..."

Gwen looked at the Ancient One with some confusion.

When she was at New York S. H. I. E. L. D., to prevent Seeker from leaving a backup plan, S. H. I. E. L. D. did a full-body check on Billy and Tang Mi.

Although the test results were very healthy, compared with Jean's physical data, the difference was still very obvious.

In a word.

Even compared with other children of the same age, Billy and Tang Mi's data ranked in the middle.

But Billy and Tang Mi have Hawk's bloodline; according to reason, Billy and Tang Mi should also have inherited their father's power like Jean.

As a result...

It seems that Billy and Tang Mi are just ordinary children, as ordinary as can be.

Gwen didn't feel anything at first; maybe Jean inherited it, and Billy and Tang Mi didn't.

This is no big deal.

However, after hearing the Ancient One talk about having ten children in the future, Gwen suddenly thought of this matter.

Although even if her children in the future didn't inherit it, Gwen didn't feel it was a big deal.

But...

If possible, Gwen still hoped that her and Hawk's children would inherit Hawk's power.

After all, Hawk is very powerful; if the children also inherit Hawk's power in the future, and she educates them well, the children of the two will definitely be very brilliant in the future.

Gwen thought so, but after hearing the Ancient One explain it like this, she was a bit confused.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"Hawk proposed to you."

"Yes."

Gwen nodded, then seemed to think of something, showed the engagement ring on her finger, and then thought of the scene of Hawk's proposal, her smile very happy.

The Ancient One explained.

"Although Hawk is not a god yet."

"But he already has divine power."

"And for gods, every promise of a god is not called a promise, but a divine oracle."

"When Hawk proposed, he promised that only children with you could inherit everything of his; since this is the case, Billy and Tang Mi, who appeared after the divine oracle took effect, are not children of you and Hawk, and naturally cannot inherit Hawk's power."

"..."

Hearing this, Gwen looked at the Ancient One: "Do you mean that Billy and Tang Mi could actually possess Hawk's power, but Hawk doesn't allow it?"

The Ancient One didn't speak again, picked up the teacup in front of her, and took a sip of the tea in the cup.

Seeing this, Gwen also picked up the teacup in front of her and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

The Ancient One poured tea.

Gwen was thinking about the Ancient One's sentence, looking at the engagement ring on her hand, thinking of the scene of Hawk's proposal that day, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
