~7 min read 1,254 words

At the very least, everything that should be in this room for daughter Jean is here.

Moreover, Hearing Wanda, who had just come out of the bedroom, also touched the quilt on the bed; it had a good feel, and one touch was enough to know it was high-quality goods.

Hearing Wanda thought to herself and looked at Hawk: "This Professor X is quite good."

Hawk nodded: "Hmm."

One thing is one thing, another is another.

Once again.

You can call Professor X a saint, but you cannot call Professor X bad; after all, if Professor X were truly bad, then a group of mutants would not be willing to follow Professor X.

Just like Mahatma Gandhi.

The non-violent non-cooperation movement.

Complaining is complaining, but that still didn't stop the Indian people from giving Gandhi the title of "Mahatma."

At the very least, in the hearts of those people, Gandhi was worth following.

Daughter Jean, listening to Hearing Wanda's words, also had her eyes light up: "That's right, Mom, the Professor is a good person."

Since the topic had drifted to Professor X, both Hawk and Hearing Wanda were a bit curious about daughter Jean's experiences after landing in this world.

Daughter Jean then began to tell Hawk and Hearing Wanda about her experience of coming to this world.

"I don't even know how I got here."

"It was that day, when I was grabbed by that bad guy whose figure looked bigger than a planet."

"I didn't resist at first, letting him think I had no ability to resist, and then, taking advantage of his distraction, I channeled my energy just like I did the first time I went to find Dad."

"I originally thought I would land somewhere not far from Dad."

"But..."

"When I opened my eyes again, I was already here."

Recalling her experience of just having dropped onto this Earth, Jean couldn't help but pout, and even when mentioning some of the encounters, she couldn't help but want to laugh.

Simply put.

Although there were some small setbacks when she first arrived, they were of no consequence.

When Jean first dropped onto this Earth, although she was only five or six years old, it was undeniable that she had grown up very well under Hearing Wanda's education and her own intelligence.

She first confirmed that the time on this Earth was the late sixties; although she didn't understand what had happened, she didn't panic, especially after confirming that here—at least in this New York City—there was no scent of her dad and mom, so she went to a social welfare institution.

When Hawk put her to sleep, he had told her about his own experiences in his youth.

Moreover, the social atmosphere of the Federation in the late sixties was indeed not as bad as in modern times, and it was also in the era of the Federal Dream.

So Jean was quickly settled by the welfare institution, and a foster family was also arranged.

That foster family had the surname Grey.

Because she was worried that members of the Celestials would chase after her, the sensible Jean only said her name was Jean when asked, without mentioning her surname, and she did not resist the foster family calling her Jean Grey.

Dad and Mom had both said that in this world, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

She could just wait until Dad and Mom found her, then tell them, and find a way to repay this foster family.

That was what Jean thought, and that was what she intended to do.

As it turned out—

Magneto caused a scene at the White House, completely letting the public know of the existence of "mutants." Coincidentally, Jean, who was already being fostered by the Greys, was accidentally caught by Mrs. Grey one time while using her telekinesis.

But these two, the Greys, could be considered kind people; although they were a bit afraid of Jean's mutant identity, they didn't kick Jean out directly.

However, watching the news reports of one mutant destruction after another, the Greys made up their minds that they dared not keep Jean at home.

It was also at this time that the young Professor X came to the door.

When Jean used her telekinesis, Professor X, who was using the Cerebro, also sensed the indescribable weight of this telekinetic power. After some investigation, he discovered that the Greys were struggling with how to arrange for Jean, so he chose to pay a visit.

And then...

The moment Jean saw Professor X, the two had a mental exchange.

She saw the mental world that Professor X had opened up without reservation to gain her trust; inside were sadness, pain, regret, and peace, but no violence or malice. Her intuition told her that this Professor X was a good person.

Likewise, Professor X also saw Jean's past in her mental world, as well as how Jean had come to this world.

Thus, Professor X took Jean back to the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, just as Professor X had kept Mystique Raven back then.

In the past ten years, Jean had stayed at the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters, learning how to control and drive the mental energy that had grown along with the passage of time under the help of Professor X.

Speaking of this mental energy.

Jean couldn't help but look at her dad Hawk and mom Hearing Wanda sitting together on the sofa, complaining: "Why didn't you teach me how to control it back then? The Professor even sighed at the time that if he hadn't found me, I might have been blown apart by this ever-growing mental energy."

Hawk and Hearing Wanda, who were listening intently, couldn't help but look at each other upon hearing this accusatory complaint from their daughter.

The next second.

Hawk looked at Jean. "My energy doesn't need control; it adapts to you. Your current energy is inherited from your mother; ask your mom."

Hearing Wanda, listening to Hawk's shifting of blame, was immediately unhappy and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Hawk: "It's as if I knew how! At the time, you were the one who said not to worry about Jean, that your energy would guide our daughter on its own."

This was different from needing to give a man face when out in public.

As their eyes met.

Jean watched this scene and couldn't help but chuckle: "Alright, I'm fine now, aren't I? And look at me, I've grown up quite well, haven't I?"

"Indeed, like me."

"Like me."

Hawk and Hearing Wanda looked at their daughter, who had spread her arms and spun around in front of them to show herself off, now grown into a graceful young woman, and spoke almost in unison.

Then...

The two looked at each other again, then smiled at one another.

Hearing Wanda met her daughter Jean's gaze, smiled slightly, and then looked at Hawk: "In that case, we should thank this Professor X."

Hawk didn't speak, just nodded.

Hearing this, Jean opened her mouth, just as she was about to speak.

Abruptly.

Her figure swayed.

Hawk's sword-like eyebrows arched; he vanished from the sofa in an instant, appeared beside his daughter Jean, and steadied her.

Hearing Wanda's scarlet Chaos Magic also struck, helping Jean soothe the mental energy in her mental world that had just suddenly rioted.

The next second.

Daughter Jean, leaning on Hawk's shoulder, opened her eyes.

"It's the Professor's voice!"

"..."
