"Pietro! Haven't you figured it out yet? Erik is a complete lunatic!"

On the dark street, Wanda waved her cloak while walking out and shouted: "He is a natural destroyer who will ruin everything! Anyone who stays with him will have bad luck!!!"

After finishing, she kicked the road pile on the side of the road fiercely and said: "We shouldn't have held any hope for him! He ruined everything!"

"Wanda, calm down." Pietro, wearing Quicksilver's suit, walked two steps quickly, grabbed his sister, and said: "It's indeed his fault for ruining the Christmas tree we set up, but he is our father after all. You spoke rudely to him in front of so many people, so it's no wonder he would be angry..."

"I spoke rudely?!!!" Wanda stopped, looked at Pietro, raised her tone, and said: "The dance party Christmas tree that the professor and students spent two weeks setting up was ruined by him in three seconds! I just wanted to stand up for them, and you actually said I spoke rudely?!!!"

"But, but he didn't mean it..." Pietro frowned and sighed, saying: "Alright, this is also my fault. When Lorna was arguing with him, I should have stopped it and shouldn't have let them fight. That Christmas tree was just an innocent victim."

"Lorna is the same as him!" Wanda started walking forward angrily again, gritting her teeth and saying: "That crazy girl and Erik are exactly cut from the same cloth! They never consider other people's feelings. Anyone who runs into them really has bad luck!"

Pietro looked a bit helpless. He looked at the pitch-black environment around him and then said: "If you run out like this, the students and the professor will also be worried. You'd better go back quickly. It's just a Christmas tree. I'll run a few more trips tonight, gather the materials, and rush to make a new one before Christmas Eve, won't that be fine?"

"Pietro!!!!" Wanda stood on the spot, her chest heaving, and said hysterically: "This isn't about a Christmas tree at all!! That crazy father and daughter ruined other people's labor results, hurt everyone, and still have no sense of guilt!! They are a group of monsters!!!"

After finishing, Wanda gasped for a while, then pursed her lips and lowered her head, saying in an angry and sad tone: "And we are the children of monsters..."

"How can I have the face to go back and face those lower-grade children? They were looking forward to Christmas so much and like me very much, and even called me sister. You haven't even called me that!"

"That's because I was born only three seconds later than you." Pietro muttered in a low voice, but then, looking at Wanda's expression, he said: "Alright, I know, you like children, and when you are with those lower-grade little mutants, even your smile increases."

"But precisely because of this, you should know that they will be worried about you. You'd better go back quickly; we still have to share cookies with them."

Wanda just lowered her head and walked forward on her own, saying in a low voice while walking: "Everything is a mistake! We shouldn't have gone to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters to be teaching assistants at all. That way, Erik wouldn't have brought disaster, and they would have had a peaceful Christmas..."

"We shouldn't have participated in these things at all. We should have returned to the jungle and lived like our mother, like witches in a primitive tribe, dealing with snakes and toads. This is our destiny!"

"Perhaps, we shouldn't have been born at all. Everything is a complete mistake! That man will never be a good father; he doesn't deserve to have children at all!"

When saying this, Wanda held onto the utility pole next to her. She squatted down slowly and grabbed her red cloak. Pietro hugged his sister with one hand and said: "Don't say that, Wanda. The children like us very much, and the professor is also praising us. As for Erik, didn't the professor say it? He is a mental patient; we have to be tolerant of him..."

"Sometimes, I really don't know who is crazy." Wanda bit her lip and said: "I am the spokesperson for Chaos Magic, but it seems that I am the only bad person in the world. Why can you be so tolerant? It makes me look like a petty, emotional child..."

Pietro sighed, really not knowing how to comfort his sister. Just at this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the end of the dark street, where another figure appeared, along with the familiar fluctuation of the magnetic field he brought.

"Erik..." Pietro called out his name. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, wanting to pull his sister away.

Because he knew that Wanda was in an extreme state of emotion now, and if the two of them faced each other like this, they would definitely be at loggerheads, and might even start a fight.

Pietro had already grabbed Wanda's wrist, but was directly shaken off by Wanda. When he turned his head, he saw Wanda's cloak fluttering, her eyes glowing red, and her whole person like a cluster of flames burning due to anger in the cold winter night.

Wanda floated slowly into mid-air. When the powerful aura of Chaos Magic spread, Pietro knew that things were going to be bad.

Sure enough, in the next second, an equally powerful magnetic field imprisoned the entire space, making it impossible for Pietro to run.

Facing Magneto's powerful momentum, Wanda didn't retreat at all. Red light surrounded her body, and between the fluttering of her cloak, endless chaos spread, and a storm rose from the ground around them.

The clouds in the night sky retreated due to fear, and the stones on the ground began to tremble. Pietro stood behind Wanda and shouted: "Calm down!! This is a residential area!! You can't fight here!!!"

However, the angry Wanda seemed to have lost her reason, and Magneto, he would never show weakness in front of anyone. The air near the street began to condense.

Pietro turned his head and looked at the room with lights on next to him, where pots and pans were flying. He gritted his teeth and took out his phone, wanting to make a call, but found that the signal was also interfered with.

More and more room lights were lit up. Many ordinary residents who didn't know what was going on poked their heads out, and some thought it was an earthquake and ran out of the residential building in a hurry, only to be blown to the ground by the storm between the two.

Wanda reached out toward Magneto, and countless red power ribbons swept toward him. Magneto raised his hands upward gently, the magnetic field was interfered with, and the ribbons of Chaos Magic were twisted to the side.

In the next second, his afterimage appeared in front of Wanda. Wanda stretched out her arm to block, the red light in her eyes became stronger, and she punched Magneto's helmet, but the erupted red light only hit Magneto's afterimage. Wanda turned back and punched, but her fist was pinched by Magneto.

Magneto flicked gently, but it carried an invincible magnetic force. Wanda did a somersault in the air and landed unscathed.

Magneto narrowed his eyes, and Wanda's expression also appeared somewhat serious. They both knew how powerful the other was.

Although Magneto hadn't used his full strength, Wanda wasn't at her peak now either; she hadn't even borrowed Chthon's power, nor did she have the ability to make her words reality.

But accompanied by the end of the probing, the contest between the two upgraded again. Magneto flicked his fingers gently, and the utility poles on both sides of the road fell down one after another. The red magic ribbons grabbed the two nearest utility poles, swung them in a circle in the air, and then pressed toward Magneto.

Magneto revealed a cold smile and squeezed gently. All the cars, utility poles, road piles, and all debris on the entire road were blown into powder.

Wanda just wanted to press forward again, when she heard a terrified shout from behind. When she turned her head, she saw the wreckage of a fallen utility pole smashing toward a father and daughter who had just rushed out of the building entrance.

Wanda couldn't care about Magneto opposite, turned back and flicked her hand, and the utility pole was knocked away. But in the next second, she was thrown to the ground by a powerful magnetic force, and then pressed to the ground by a large hand made of magnetic force.

Wanda struggled continuously, turned her head to look at the father and daughter. Magneto flew up, landed slowly on their heads, glanced at the father and daughter, and said in a low tone: "I will teach you, softness is your greatest enemy..."

After finishing, he reached out toward the father and daughter. Wanda shouted: "No!!!! You monster!!!!!!!"

Just when Wanda was somewhat desperately wanting to get up to stop it, another shadow swept past her, taking the father and daughter away from the original spot. Wanda raised her head and saw a figure put the father and daughter down and jump to the roof himself.

"Spider-Man? No, not Spider-Man..." Wanda said somewhat doubtfully. At this time, Magneto also dropped his gaze onto the face of that figure.

The mysterious figure wore a hood, and his face couldn't be seen clearly. Magneto reached out, and in the next second, he paused and said in a low voice: "Interesting."

Just when he intended to take further action, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something, revealed a hesitant expression, and finally, waved his cloak and turned to leave.

Pietro ran over hurriedly and helped Wanda up. Wanda coughed twice and shook her head, indicating she was fine.

After finishing, she raised her head to look at the figure on the roof, just wanting to speak, when she heard a cry from opposite.

Wanda ran over hurriedly. The daughter of the father and daughter who had just been saved by that figure pointed at her father's arm and said: "Bleeding! Bleeding! Help my father quickly!"

Wanda held the little girl somewhat scrambling, and then said: "Don't cry, we will help you..."

Although she said so, Wanda actually didn't know first aid at all. She could only point at the wound with her hand and say: "Heal!"

The wound started to heal, but the speed was very slow. Wanda pressed her temples and said in a low voice: "Concentrate, concentrate, don't be angry, don't be angry..."

However, the intense emotional fluctuation just now made her unable to control her magic well. At this time, another figure appeared by her side and said: "Hello, Mr. Pietro, your speed is very fast. Can I ask you to find some items to stop the bleeding?"

Pietro looked at the figure that appeared in front of him. When the other party took off the hood, Pietro and Wanda were stunned together. Pietro exclaimed: "Vampire?! Oh, wait a minute, you're not a vampire, who are you?"

"You can call me Jarvis." Jarvis blinked.

Pietro and Wanda looked at each other and looked at Jarvis together, appearing somewhat confused.

About half an hour later, Jarvis and Wanda stood on the roof of the building. Wanda dusted off the dust on her arms and said: "Thanks for your help..."

"You're welcome." Jarvis's voice was still very flat.

"Are you a new superhero?" Wanda looked at Jarvis, and then, as if she had remembered something, said: "Oh, sorry, you all usually wear masks, right? I didn't mean to pry into your real identity..."

【Currently, the app with the most complete and best-to-use audio-listening function, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 types of timbres, and supporting offline reading, is the source-changing artifact, huanyuanapp. source-changing app】

Jarvis shook his head and didn't say anything, but Wanda looked at the mark on his face with some curiosity, wanting to ask something, but hesitated when it came to speaking, so she had to find another topic.

"How did you appear here? Was it because the commotion we made was too big?"

Jarvis shook his head again and said:

"I was kicked out."

"Kicked out?" Wanda raised her eyebrows with some surprise, then looked Jarvis up and down, finding his face very young, looking about the same as Pietro, so she asked: "Kicked out by your parents? Did you have a fight?"

"You could say that." Jarvis sighed and said.

"... With your father?" Wanda guessed.

Jarvis's movements paused, but he still nodded.

Wanda, who hadn't associated his identity at all and thought it was just the same name, didn't notice that Jarvis's gaze toward the New York skyline stayed on the tallest building.

When the moon was about to sink below the sea level, the moonlight outlined the silhouette of the letter sign on the roof. The cursive English "Stark" written on it had once been rated as a disaster for the New York skyline, but now, it had also become history and scenery.

At this time, in the office of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Professor X looked at Magneto with a smile and said: "... You should have already coaxed Wanda, right?"

Under the cloak, the gloved fingers paused slightly.

Magneto compared the imagination with the scene in reality slightly, feeling that there might be some gap, but facing Professor X's gaze, he still nodded without showing weakness.
