Chapter 1684
Morning light spilled into the room through the cracks in the curtains. Wanda, wearing a loose pajama robe, stood by the window and paced somewhat anxiously. The witch lady crossed her arms and walked from left to right and from right to left in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Her red hair hung on her shoulders. When the sunlight shone on her, she looked like a mermaid swimming in the sea.
"I'm a bit confused now, do you understand? Now as long as I focus my attention on Chaos Magic, I can get another person's perspective. I have never had this feeling before. My brain seems to have been split into two halves."
"Wanda, Wanda!" Jarvis, who was sitting on the edge of the bed wearing only pajama pants, looked at Wanda and shouted, finding that this kind of shouting couldn't stop his girlfriend from continuing to act as a lawn mower, so he had to stretch out a hand and gently tugged at Wanda's arm.
"Oh, dear."
Wanda put her hand into Jarvis's hand, brushed her long hair behind her head with the other hand, and said: "I'm worried to death. It's not just because this perspective makes me feel confused, more importantly, I swear I really heard that kind of terrible whisper before, that breath is the same as what we felt in that terrifying universe!"
Wanda covered her eyes with her slender fingers and said: "It seems that one of my believers and his friends actively summoned this group of terrible existences and dragged Helen into it. If something happens to her, Asgard will definitely trouble Professor Charles."
"Stop, Wanda, this is not your fault. You just happened to catch up with this event and then went to check the situation."
"But I could have prevented the deterioration of the situation!" Wanda was pulled by Jarvis to sit beside him, but her nervous and anxious attitude didn't ease at all. She said: "I should have paid more attention to Chthon's situation, so that when he lent Chaos Magic to others, I could find out in the first time."
"But I recently... I'm really too busy." Wanda shook her head and glanced at Jarvis's side face from the gap in the hair on her ear.
She had indeed been very busy recently. After experiencing danger together, deepening understanding, and becoming more familiar with each other's lifestyles, the young men and women who had already determined their relationship inevitably had their feelings heat up in a short time. People in the hot love period seemed to have only each other in their eyes.
Wanda was originally a person who advocated a stable life and believed that the meaning of life lay in forming a perfect and happy family. When she thought she had found love, she would rather abandon everything to maintain this relationship. During this period of time, she and Jarvis had not been separated, and she had no energy to manage other things. Every day was spent in the mutual companionship of her lover.
Jarvis covered Wanda's fingers with his hand, then took one of her hands to his knee, turned to look at the witch lady and said: "You will blame yourself for this, not because the consequences of your negligence harmed anyone. Whether it is Helen or Charles, you actually don't care, and your anxiety doesn't come from guilt."
Wanda looked stunned, and then anger climbed onto her beautiful eyebrows and eyes. She just wanted to sternly refute, but Jarvis said in that calm tone: "What really makes you anxious is that the rhythm of the life you pursue has been disrupted. If Helen has an accident, you have to spend time explaining to Asgard. If Professor Charles is troubled by Asgardians, you have to find a way to protect him and argue on strong grounds."
"Your heart actually doesn't want to do these things at all. You think these social links are completely unnecessary and a waste of time. If it weren't for the disaster you caused that might make you lose your friends and family and lose the happiness defined by sociology, you could hurt anyone and still feel that apologizing is a waste of time."
Wanda was completely stunned, and then her expression became flustered. She "swished" and stood up from the edge of the bed and walked to the end of the bed, turned her back and hugged her arms, made a defensive posture, and then said: "No, Jarvis! You can't, you can't say that about me, is it... is it..."
"Is it unacceptable to objectively and rationally analyze yourself?"
"But you are not my psychiatrist!"
"I am indeed not, but this can't prevent you from seeing our good doctor. Sooner or later, you know."
"But, but no one asked me to see a psychiatrist. Pietro and I don't need it. We are quite healthy!"
"That's just compared to those who are more seriously ill and haven't been cured, and they are getting better day by day, so naturally your differences will show up. Do you think that doctor will let it go?"
Wanda stood silently, but her aura and her back were all written with fluster. She pursed her lips and said: "I am not a mental patient! I am not Erik or Lorna, I can control myself!"
"No one said you can't, dear, just that some lack of empathy might come from blood inheritance."
"I didn't inherit any of his things!!" Wanda was simply screaming. She said: "I am different from them, I am a normal person, I can integrate into society!"
"Sorry, Wanda, if my wording makes you feel that I am diagnosing you with mental illness, that is my mistake."
Wanda turned around suddenly, looking at Jarvis with tears in her eyes and said: "You can't calmly examine me like them, and then judge that I must be a madman through my background. I thought you wouldn't do this!"
"I am not doing this." Jarvis's attitude was always very calm, and his calm attitude was quite infectious. Wanda took a few deep breaths, put her hands on the pillar at the end of the bed and said: "Then what on earth are you going to say? Does it matter why I am anxious?"
"If you know that you are actually not anxious about hurting others, then you don't have to be anxious, because your life rhythm will not be disrupted. We have better solutions than waiting for disaster to happen and then making up for it in impatience."
Wanda looked at Jarvis's eyes blankly. Jarvis's words made Wanda realize that Jarvis made such a diagnosis not to criticize her.
"You won't think I am very heartless, very cold, simply like a monster?"
"I am a robot." Jarvis turned slightly, put his hands on his knees, looked up at Wanda's face, and said in an extremely indifferent attitude: "If we talk about the degree of heartlessness, I am probably several billion times yours."
"So..." Wanda took a deep breath, her hands dropped down and grabbed the edge of her nightdress unconsciously. She licked her lips, not knowing whether to speak directly, but facing Jarvis's calm and powerful gaze, she finally collapsed and said.
"Okay, I know my sister and brother are the same. Erik's damn blood didn't leave any good things. We are all very similar to him, and the most important one is... we are actually very selfish."
"I don't care what the world becomes at all, and I don't care about those friends I usually treat friendly. If they die because of me, I have some guilt...
"... Or I won't. I have never mourned for anyone."
"My brain is full of my assumptions about the future. I really can't take care of others. Don't you think this is very heartless?"
"Still that sentence, Miss, you can't discuss the degree of your heartlessness with a robot." Jarvis put his hand on Wanda's hand again and said: "To me, even the human brain that is heartless is like a honey jar full of complex connections."
Wanda suddenly laughed. She pulled her hand out from under Jarvis's hand and then held it back, and said: "Then your creator Tony Stark is probably a honey swimming pool."
"Slightly conservative, Miss, he is the honey Pacific Ocean."
Half an hour later, Stark stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, with his hands on his hips looking at Wanda and Jarvis standing in front of him holding hands, sighed and said.
"Are you here now to tell me that someone caused a disaster, you didn't save it in time, causing Helen to be in danger, and hope I help you solve all the social troubles brought about by the evil consequences?"
Stark's mouth opened and closed, and finally said: "Not to mention whether your measures after encountering trouble are legitimate, why do you think I can handle three extremely angry women? Oh, it might be four, also counting Frigga."
"The evil consequences have not yet been caused." Jarvis stepped forward and said: "Wanda can connect with a contractor of Chaos Magic and watch the situation on her side. So far Helen Stark is still healthy, but the situation of her companions and the breath of the universe she is in make Wanda feel uneasy."
"Another universe..." Stark weighed this vocabulary in his mouth and then said: "Okay, if I have to pick one from three angry women to stand on the same front as us, then I definitely still pick Loki. After all, she might just be an angry person now, not an angry woman."
"I think he knows." Wanda opened her mouth and said: "I saw the situation at the scene from the contractor's eyes. He is watching not far away."
"Then he must be dealing with Frigga now, because Helen should have returned to Asgard this weekend to accompany her grandmother."
Stark had just finished speaking when a portal "swished" and opened in another corner of the office. Loki, carrying a staff, rushed out from inside and said: "Go to Nick's quickly! Helen went to another universe, we must fish her back before she causes trouble."
Another fifteen minutes or so passed. In Nick's office at S. H. I. E. L. D., Nick, Natasha, and Coulson gathered together, sitting on the large sofa on one side. Loki sat on the single sofa opposite. He looked a bit distracted, possibly communicating with Thor using divine power.
In front of the room was a huge projection screen, and Stark, Jarvis, and Wanda were fiddling with a device at the desk.
Jarvis carefully pasted the patch on Wanda's forehead and comforted Wanda who was a bit nervous: "Just share your brain vision, don't worry, although using Scarlet Power to project images is also possible, that might make you very tired."
"Thank you, but I'm not nervous about this." Wanda took a deep breath and said: "The situation in that universe is a bit strange, or too strange. You will know in a while."
At this time, the door was knocked, and Professor X and Magneto came together. Polaris Lorna and Quicksilver Pietro followed behind them.
As soon as Professor X entered in his wheelchair, he looked at Wanda with great worry and said: "Are you okay? Wanda, I heard that you and someone in another universe have connected. Erik and I are both worried about you."
Wanda instead looked unnatural. She pinched the corner of her clothes and said: "I might have caused a disaster, I..."
"Although we are indeed worried about Helen, it doesn't mean we don't care about your condition, Wanda, are you okay?"
Wanda nodded on the surface, but still thought in despair, why is everyone she knows so emotionally intelligent?
At this time, the witch lady couldn't help but secretly glance at Erik, and then felt a little relieved. Fortunately, she was not the bottom one.
