Early morning, apartment suites in Brooklyn.

The faint morning light shone through the gauze curtain into the white bedroom, as if covered with a hazy light veil. The girl was lying on one side in a soft bed, with bright blonde hair and long eyelashes.

The alarm clock was set for seven, but she woke up before half-past six. She tossed and turned in bed for a quarter of an hour, but she was completely sleepless, so she had to sit up early.

She turned off the alarm clock and got up, brushed her teeth, and dressed up neatly. She changed out of her pajamas, and after hesitating for a while from the large ebony closet, she finally chose a dress that she looked quite satisfied with.

After breakfast, everything was ready, she put on her backpack and went to the stone steps at the gate early to wait.

Gwen Groverney, a sixteen-year-old high school girl who just moved to New York a week ago, is a transfer student at 163 High School — at least that's what all of her files show.

By the way, today is her first day of school.

Eight hundred meters away, she recognized the car that had come to pick her up from the end of the street, after all, even in New York, you don't always see such a stylish stretch limousine. Sure enough, the car stopped in front of her, the door opened, and a woman dressed in professional attire with silky pale blonde curls stepped out, standing in front of Gwen in a proper manner.

"Gwen Grofne?" She asked.

"Uh...... Uh-huh. Gwen snorted in reply.

"Elizabeth Beatty, Mr. Paso's secretary." The woman introduced herself, "He sent me to pick you up from school." ”

"So...... Mr. Paso, he didn't come? ”

"He's got other things to do, but I can tell him anything for you." Elizabeth pulled the car door, "Come in, we can talk on the road." ”

Gwen sat in. As soon as the door was closed, the driver started the vehicle and the sedan moved smoothly down the street. The cab and rear seat are covered with laminated glass filled with acoustic damping glue to ensure that the driver cannot hear the passengers in the back seat.

Gwen put down her backpack and sat down a little crampedly in the luxurious leather seat, subconsciously fiddling with her fingers.

"Nervous about school?" Elizabeth tried to open the subject.

"Ah, no." Gwen explained, "I just ...... Well...... Never sat in a limousine. Oh I mean, of course I haven't sat because I've only been six months old in theory...... But from what I can remember, apparently Gwen Stacy didn't sit either. ”

Elizabeth nodded with a clear expression.

Gwen pretended to look at the scenery outside the window, and after a while, she asked casually, "So...... Mr. Paso, does he have any message for me? ”

Elizabeth thought for a moment: "Study hard and make progress every day." ”

“...... Anything else? ”

"Try to stay out of trouble." She said, "Mr. Paso wants you to try not to use your superpowers in your daily life, keep a low profile, just be an ordinary high school girl, and don't get into trouble." ”

"But he told me that I should use my gifts to the best of my meaning, didn't he?" Gwen raised an eyebrow, "How am I going to be valuable if I shouldn't use my superpowers?" ”

Elizabeth patiently explained: "Mr. Paso has made a new identity for you, trying to cover your disappearance from under the noses of the CIA, but they certainly still haven't given up on finding a spider girl who can fly up the wall." So for the sake of your cover identity, try to keep a low profile, understand? ”

After a pause, she turned to say, "As for the latter part, I shouldn't have explained it. But don't worry, Mr. Paso has his own arrangements for you. After a while, you will be contacted by someone else who will teach you how to fight, how to hide yourself. When Mr. Paso thinks you're ready, he'll naturally assign you a task. ”

Gwen pouted, "I know how to fight." ”

"Mr. Paso's arrangement is also for your sake, I hope you understand."

Gwen said casually, "I understand. Just ......"

...... It's just that he didn't come here to tell me this in person.

But she quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence back.

"How?"

"Ah, nothing." Gwen shook her head and grabbed her backpack. The car stopped just across from the school gate.

"If you have any questions or needs, you can contact me." Elizabeth said, "If there is something important, I will help you to convey it to Mr. Paso." ”

Gwen opened the car door, slipped out, and finally waved his hand, "I will." Thank you. ”

***

Wanda Maximov kept her eyes wide open without blinking, concentrating as much as she could. Crimson and transparent energy fluctuations flowed and tumbled between her fingers like a stream of condensed water, constantly changing shapes.

Michael stood a few meters beside her with his arms crossed, observing and feeling the fluctuations of magic in her palms, and at the same time instructed Shirley to use monitoring equipment to record various forms of energy changes at all times.

After spending some time studying the chaos magic that Wanda wielded, Michael finally had some initial understanding of this power. Chaos magic is a type of dark magic that differs in function and nature from the authentic occult art he learned from the Supreme Mage. But of course, there are many things in common.

"Alright, that's it." Michael said.

The crimson fluctuations dissipated abruptly, and Wanda lowered her hand and cast an inquiring glance at him.

"Pretty much understood." Michael walked over to her, "Your power comes from something called 'Chaos Magic', the most famous user of which is the ancient evil god Sithorne. But I've never seen this form of magic before, and I've only scratched the surface of it through your demos, so we'll need to explore it together in the future......"

Wanda subconsciously let out a soft "ah". Michael stopped and asked, "What?" ”

"You say this is...... From an evil god? Wanda stared blankly at the crimson light rippling on her fingertips, "Is that so?" ”

"I don't know how this power is connected to you, and I don't know why." Michael said calmly, "But there is no right or wrong power itself, like a pistol." To hurt or to save someone, it depends on the meaning of the gunman. ”

Wanda nodded lightly: "Well, I understand. ”

"So to make it easier to understand what I'm going to teach you next, I'll first explain the basics of how I use magic."

Michael paused and said, "First of all, the most basic part of a spell, and its foundation, is the 'spell'. This is a language that has been handed down since the dawn of civilization, and if you think of the real world as an incomparably large program architecture, then the 'spell' is the source code that modifies the data and applies the laws in the real architecture. ”

He stretched out his palms, right palm up, left palm down, and pulled a vertical flame-colored line in the opposite direction. Then he rotated his arms counterclockwise, and the lines swirled with his guidance, cutting a circle of intricate patterns in the space.

"I draw energy from other dimensions of the multiverse and use it to build weapons, shields, or temporarily modify the rules of reality to perform some more magical magic."

He spread his five fingers and lightly pressed on the transparent magic circle, and the intricate golden lines immediately disintegrated, gradually dissipating like a mirage.

"I'm saying this just to tell you how it works. But in doing so, we are actually borrowing the power of other higher beings, and the meaning of borrowing is ...... There will be a price. Unless you use some special means. ”

Wanda wondered: "A special way?" ”

"Let's not talk about that for now. You don't need to draw energy from other dimensions and borrow other people's mana, as I just said," said Michael, "because you already have the ability to harness the magic of chaos, which is an almost inexhaustible source of mana, so theoretically you shouldn't have to think about the cost." So what I'm going to teach you is just how to use it more skillfully and efficiently, starting with the basics.

So today begins the most basic lesson, which is to forge weapons with your magic. Craft a sword and your attacks will be more unstoppable, slashing through all obstacles that stand in your path; Forge a shield and your defenses will be more impregnable and protect your own safety; Or you can even condense the mana to a point to increase penetration and explosiveness, piercing through any defense like a bullet and killing in one hit. ”

Wanda watched with fascination at the sparks that were gradually dissipating in the air, as if they were still digesting.

After thinking for a moment, she came back to her senses, "So, you're saying you can teach me to use my 'chaos magic'...... Do it like you? ”

Michael shook his head.

"To be precise, we should help each other." "First of all, I'm going to help you figure out your own power and help you master it skillfully," he said...... Then I hope that one day, you will help me figure out how I can harness Chaos Magic." ”
