166. Chapter 73
Chapter Seventy-Three: A Visit to X Academy (End)
Although Professor McGonagall is very sincere, it would be better for Daniel to go back to Hogwarts for some 'tutoring'.
After all, if a wizard can't control his own magic power well, it's not fun to make some 'magic riots'.
But Daniel knew that if there was no way to solve the conflict between the two forces in his body, it would take a lot of effort to even use spells, and he wouldn't have so much magic power to 'riot'.
So, 'tutoring' or something, it doesn't work at all, and it's a shame (point).
Moreover, he has had no interest in the legal profession of wizarding since he was a child.
When he was young, Alphard, a stupid father who was in a doting state, relied on thousands of persuasions every time he taught him spells.
But it didn't work, he always had a normal sense of wizarding stuff.
You know, his idol is America's sweetheart...... No, it's Captain America.
Close combat is the romance that men should have!
So, he politely rejected Professor McGonagall's offer.
And, I'm going to just say goodbye and leave X Academy.
"I've got a bunch of big and small things to do." He said as if he was very busy.
Then, he looked at the twins who had been standing next to him, who were looking curiously at Charles Xavier, and asked, "Wanda, Petero, are you two going to stay here?" ”
"We want to stay a little longer, after all, Wanda and I are both mutants. What has been taught at S.H.I.E.L.D. recently is a bit wrong......"
Quicksilver Pietro, as a representative of the twins, stepped forward to answer.
Daniel nodded understandingly, they had reported this matter to Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., before they came.
But the next moment,
Quicksilver suddenly turned around, looked at Charles and stammered, "Uh...... That, I'm ...... with Wanda."
"X Academy welcomes fellow mutants of any kind."
Charles immediately replied in the affirmative, but at the same time, the gaze in his eyes was somewhat subtle.
He looked at the twins gently and kindly, and there was an inexplicable sparkle in his blue eyes, as if he knew all the secrets.
Quicksilver took a step back a little uncomfortably, feeling like he was being seen through from the inside out.
Wanda hid behind her brother, her expression a little guarded, but a little confused.
Daniel secretly speculated that Charles might already know, or sense, the twins' origins.
It's so convenient, you don't have to speak...... It's really easy and interesting to have someone with strong psychic abilities around. ’
He couldn't help but sigh to himself in his heart.
Then, the gentle voice sounded in his head: [Usually people don't think so, so I'm glad to meet you, friend.] BTW, thank you for complimenting me on my abilities. ]
[…… Hey, we just let you out! Why are you here again? ]
[uh...... Excuse me...... Accidentally walked the wrong head. ]
[…… Excuse! ]
In fact, in the few seconds they were chatting in their heads.
Pietro and Wanda glanced at each other.
He asked a very impulsive question: "Professor Xavier, do you know Magneto?" ”
"Yes, I do." Charles was slightly stunned, but quickly replied calmly.
Then, very naturally, he turned his wheelchair and went to the table next to him to pour a glass of water, and after pouring the water, he moved the kettle in front of him, as if trying to block the sun from going down through the window, some dazzling light.
"You know that...... Know...... I mean, is he married now? ”
Quicksilver asked implicitly and tactfully.
"We haven't been in touch for a long time."
Charles replied gently, his slender fingers nonchalantly fiddling with the tassels on the tablecloth.
He lowered his head and said unclearly, "So, I'm very sorry, I don't know what his current situation is." ”
Quicksilver didn't know what to say.
He and Wanda looked at each other again, very hesitant, not knowing whether they should tell the professor in front of them about their backgrounds.
Daniel didn't interject, just looked at the situation in front of him with interest.
However, when he noticed that Charles's fingers that were pulling the tassels seemed to tremble slightly, he suddenly couldn't help but ask curiously in his head: [Hi, Charles, I heard that you and Magneto are a couple?] ]
'Dangchang'.
Charles's fingers tugging at the tassels on the tablecloth were accidentally pushed too hard, and he almost tore off a tablecloth, and although he stopped his hand in time, the cup and the kettle collided together, making a very clear sound.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little distracted."
He hurriedly looked up, smiled embarrassedly at the twins and Professor McGonagall, and explained.
At the same time, he replied in shock in his head: [God, Daniel, where did you hear such scary rumors?] ]
[Isn't that true?] ]
Daniel said rather disappointed.
Then, probably because of great regret, some of the thoughts that he had used to simply block with the Occlumency Technique were suddenly uncontrollable, and all of them came up, so a lot of messy restricted-level content instantly swiped the screen in his head.
[…… Come on...... You...... Get rid of the scrap in your head, I'm not in that relationship with Eric, and I don't have much experience to teach you...... It's really ......]
Charles, who was accidentally confused by someone's brain-filled family love movie, couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hand to cover the laughing expression on his face, but he couldn't control his trembling shoulders from laughing.
He really thought it was fun, and it was the first time he had met someone so out of the way since he became a telepathic person.
But......
A flash of curiosity and a smile flashed in his eyes: [Are you really a couple with Iron Man?] ]
[Haven't you seen it already?] ]
[uh...... Yes. However, if it's Iron Man, you want to be on top, and it's a bit difficult. ]
Probably because of the 'well-informed', Charles accepted the relationship between the two men quite quickly, but instead came up with the idea of a serious (lest the world will not be chaotic) help: [Otherwise, how about finding an opportunity to get him drunk?] ]
[May be considered.] Actually, I just had a better idea, and I need your help with it......]
[What...... Oh...... No! Don't you think, you don't think! Haha, I won't help you. ]
[I haven't said what it is!] ]
[You probably forgot about jì, I have such a convenient and interesting ability.] So, I'm definitely not going to help you...... Brain-controlled Iron Man, allowing you to ...... Haha, you can figure it out...... Don't think about it! No, I don't want to be hit by a heavily armed Iron Man. ]
[Hey, you're too cowardly, Charles.] ]
[It's not cowardice, it's reasonable risk aversion!] ]
――――――――――――――――――――――
Ignore the inexplicable deed of these two people, plus the messy gossip in the brain.
After discussing with each other for a while, the twins finally did not directly say their backgrounds, but they planned to stay at X Academy for the time being to further their studies and master their abilities as much as possible.
And at the same time,
The resolute Professor McGonagall, after carefully studying some of the written materials of the X Academy compiled by Hank "The Beast" before, has preliminarily recognized the X Academy.
She had already made up her mind to return to the UK as soon as some details had been worked out, and the joint school project was officially launched.
Daniel did not offer any opinion on this.
Although he never shirked his responsibilities, he rarely thought highly of himself how great he was.
Most of the time, he habitually ignores or respects other people's decisions until they find their own.
Especially at the moment, he really thinks that the superhero thing is enough to annoy him, and the things on the mutant side should stay away, don't mix it, it feels like it's a more complicated mess.
It's just that when he left, Charles was in a wheelchair and personally sent him out of the door of X Academy.
Maybe it's really because of the deed, this guy, who has always had the demeanor of an elder to the outside world, didn't even bother to say anything.
He directly stretched out his finger and gently tapped the left corner of his forehead, and asked softly in Daniel's head without hesitation: [Daniel, if I have time, can I visit you at the Avengers Building?] ]
[Hmm...... Have you changed your mind, are you going to help me out? ]
Daniel didn't really care, just blinked his eyes and replied in his head.
[Unfortunately, no.] ]
Charles couldn't help but laugh at his amusement.
Seriously, the two of them stood and sat like this, and they didn't speak, just looked at each other, laughing tacitly and happily.
Many of the students in X Academy couldn't help but cast their curious eyes on them.
Sometimes, however, it is such a magical thing to be familiar with at first sight, but it is difficult for people to understand.
Although Daniel didn't want to meddle in the mutant business, he always felt that he and Charles were very compatible.
So, after joking, he answered him with little hesitation: [Well, although you don't help me. But I still ...... You are welcome to come and play with me at any time. ]
[Thank you.] Charles said happily.
Then, he paused abruptly and looked up in surprise: [It seems that you really should leave......]
[What?] Daniel asked, surprised.
He followed Charles's gaze and looked over to see a familiar golden-red figure, sitting carelessly on the roof of a nearby room, holding a doughnut in his hand and munching on it.
The setting sun was about to set, and it shone a faint yellow light.
Tony ate the last bite of the doughnut, licked the syrup off his fingers, and looked back nonchalantly, those big brown eyes, warm by the sun.
Then, he waved happily at Daniel, as usual when no one was around, triumphantly: "Hey, baby, do you need a ride home?" ”
