Stephen Strange, a well-known surgeon, was originally most proud of his stable and skillful hands, with which he did not know how many difficult surgeries he had performed, and saved many lives.

However, after a serious car accident, his proudest hands became a burden to him, and although they had undergone several surgeries, they could not return to their original state: their strength decreased, their dexterity decreased, and most importantly, they were no longer stable.

It was in order to heal his hands that he went to great lengths to find Kama Taj and become a mage.

At this time, his greatest wish was to learn a mysterious spell that could heal his hands as soon as possible, but after a series of events, Strange's mind began to change a little.

In the case of Strange, who had just arrived at Kama Taj, he would have found a way to restore his hands to their original state when he was free to use the Time Stones, rather than continuing to specialize in magic and then treating his injuries in a more 'orthodox' way.

Now Strange understands something: this kind of power that could be harmful to the whole world should not be used arbitrarily because of personal factors.

Although he has not yet become a Supreme Mage, he already understands how to 'properly protect the earth'.

Tony looked at the mage in front of him, Tony nodded, and instead of continuing to talk to the other party, he greeted the king next to him.

Wang still has an expression as if everyone owes me money, but Tony knows that this friend is like this when he usually has no expression, and he doesn't really look at anyone who is not pleasing to the eye.

In fact, Wang is a very interesting person, and often says things with a cold face that make people feel speechless.

This time the king didn't say anything speechless, this time he took Strange to find Tony, in addition to introducing Tony Stark to Strange, and more importantly, taking him to meet another big man.

"You said you wanted me to meet someone very important, Stark?"

After thinking about it, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Stark Group is a well-known large group in the world, Stark himself is a famous figure, and he is also a member of the Avengers, since the mission of the mages of Kama Taj is to protect the world, it seems to be quite normal to have a relationship with the Avengers who also protect the world.

But then Strange knew that he was wrong, and the king's biggest purpose in bringing him here was not Tony.

"Is Master Ethan here?"

Because Wang is a mage that the ancient one trusts, some information will also be known to Wang, such as Ethan will not stay in this world most of the time, so Wang is not sure if he can meet Ethan on this trip.

But it's okay to meet Tony, and he's a powerful mage, so Strange has a place to turn to when he's in trouble.

"You're in luck, he's been here lately. ”

Tony knew that the king had brought Strange to Ethan, and perhaps in the king's opinion, the earth was in its most vulnerable period now after the death of the ancient one, and Master Ethan was the last hole card of Kama Taj.

Following Tony to Ethan's residence, Strange has been wondering what kind of person Master Ethan is, but when he actually sees Ethan, he realizes that all his previous guesses about Ethan are wrong.

He thought that Ethan was an old man of a certain age, even if this mage had some magical abilities and lived for many years, but at least some traces of time would be shown on his appearance, right?

The age of the Ancient One is not too young, and judging from the various news he got in Kama Taj, the Ancient One is hundreds of years old, to say the least.

Although the appearance of the ancient one is not an old man, he can still see some traces left by the years.

But what the hell is this Master Ethan in front of you?

Even if it's not a white-bearded grandfather, it shouldn't be so young now, right?

Since the king called him Master Ethan, Strange had already put Ethan in the same position as Gu in his heart, so he directly ruled out the possibility that Ethan was a real young man.

What's more, he is a mage who has really learned magic, he knows how difficult it is for mages to improve their abilities, he feels that his talent is already very good, but without that opportunity with Dormammu, he would not have been able to improve his magic strength to this level in such a short time.

In addition to his appearance, this Master Ethan lives in a mansion in a wealthy area, and then comes out with a tall and beautiful woman, which looks more like the ...... of those wealthy people who have a successful career Put on airs.

Turning his head to look at the king next to him, Strange's eyes revealed obvious: Are you sure you are not mistaken?

But the king didn't pay any attention to Strange's eyes, and when Ethan appeared, the king immediately greeted him and greeted Ethan very respectfully.

Most of the mages in the entire Kama Taj don't know much about Ethan, and even a small number of mages think that Ethan is no different from himself and others, such as several mages who Ethan saw him when he first came to the Marvel Universe.

Only the few mages closest to the Ancient One knew that Ethan was a powerful mage who could freely travel through multiple universes.

Because Wang saw Ethan from time to time, he often served by the side even when the ancient one chatted with Ethan, and the two mystical realm masters never shied away from him when chatting, he knew more than other mages.

For example, Ethan is not only very strong, but he also holds a space gem in his hand.

Whether in terms of strength or 'equipment', this is a powerful existence on an equal footing with the Supreme Mage, and when Ethan and the Ancient One discussed the knowledge of magic, the king also benefited a lot, and in some ways Ethan can even be regarded as his mentor.

With so many reasons added together, it is not surprising that Wang behaved reverently.

After saying hello, Ethan also turned his gaze to Strange on the side. It can be seen that the successor of the Ancient One Master is very curious about himself.

"You are wondering why the king brought you to me. ”

"There are some. ”

Strange didn't feel the slightest bit of mage's mysterious aura in Ethan's body, as if he was facing an ordinary young man, but the king reminded him that the person he wanted to see was not an ordinary person, but an equal existence with the ancient master, and the information he saw and heard seemed to be unequal, which made him very puzzled.

"It's not surprising that the departure of the Ancient One has caused Kama Taj to lose his backbone, although you have performed well before, it is not easy to take over the position of the Ancient One...... You will face test after test. ”

That's why Wang brought Strange to see Ethan, to put it bluntly, he hoped that Ethan could guide Strange and further improve his strength.

"So ......"

Strange thought of this as well, but he still had some doubts about it before he heard a definite answer.

"So...... Wang thinks that you may not be able to deal with those troubles well now. ”

Ethan looked at Strange in front of him, the corners of the other party's mouth and eyebrows trembled slightly, this arrogant former surgeon was very dissatisfied with being underestimated, but he understood that Wang wanted to help him by doing this, so he had no way to come out, he could only suppress his true thoughts in his heart.

"But I think the king underestimated you too much, Stephen...... You don't mind if I call you that!"

Ethan made a slight gesture to sit down, and Strange realized that everyone had come to the garden without realizing it, and he happened to be standing next to a chair.

When?

Strange looked around, and regardless of when he shifted, he didn't feel the slightest discomfort caused by energy fluctuations or spatial changes - this proved that the other party's control of energy was very precise.

This hand alone is enough to prove the strength of the other party, at least he can't do it so easily now.

As soon as he sat down, Strange saw tea and dessert appear on the table in front of him, he had become accustomed to drinking tea in the year of Kama Taj, and after taking a sip of the teacup, he quietly waited for Ethan's next step.

He had already thrown the previous pile of doubts into the corner, from the application of the other party's space spell, he could know that this was definitely a powerful mage, the hands just now looked inconspicuous, but how could he not see the difficulty as a mage?

What he didn't know was that Ethan had learned this set from him that he had used on himself.

Strange used this method to entertain Thor, the god of thunder, and immediately shocked the proud Thor, and in a daze, he started a conversation with Strange's rhythm.

Ethan took a sip of the juice and continued his previous words: "You are a very gifted mage, and the earth needs a talented young man like you to protect it...... There is no doubt that the future is yours. ”

It's a little weird to be called a young man by someone who doesn't look to be in his early twenties, but Strange doesn't know how to refute it, and the strength shown by the other party proves that this person is actually much older than he seems.

There is no way to determine how old is this, but when Wang respects the other party so much, and obviously his status is not low, he can only listen obediently.

"But since you're here, it's not good to let you leave so empty-handed......"

Anyway, he is the heir of the ancient one, and to some extent, he is still a classmate and a descendant, and he turned to visit him, and it would be a bit unreasonable not to give him a gift or something.

Ethan didn't think about it for too long, just glanced at Strange's hands to know what kind of gift to give, and it is estimated that Strange himself liked this gift.
