Ever since his last encounter with Mephisto in the Hell Dimension, Casillas had become suspicious of the Ancient One, but in fact this suspicion did not begin at the instigation of Mephisto, he had been suspicious of the Ancient One for a long time.

The Ancient One mage lived far longer than humans, something that white magic could not do, and a great mage may live a hundred years, but he can never be immortal.

There is only one creature that can transcend the constraints of time and reach eternity within the scope known to Earth mages - and that is Dormammu, who rules the dark dimension.

So there is no doubt that the source of the immortality of the Ancient One Mage is none other than Dormammu.

The Ancient One mage made a pact with the master of the dark dimension without telling his disciples in exchange for an endless lifespan, much to Casillas' displeasure.

What about working together to defend against the invasion of the dark dimension?

What about the evil old gods who said that Dormammu was trying to devour the earth?

How is it that your Ancient One Mage did not know anything about him behind his back, and still obtained eternal life from him?

Perhaps it was anger after being deceived, or maybe it was just plain jealousy, Casillas' resentment towards the Ancient One grew deeper and deeper until it became irreconcilable.

For all this, Mordo saw it.

Although he couldn't agree with the ancient one's approach, and his heart was condemning the ancient one's unprincipled and bottomless behavior, he was not as paranoid as Casillas, let alone turned against the ancient one.

Now that he heard Casillas use the topic to play and blame the ancient one again in the matter of Strange, he smiled comfortingly, patted Casillas on the shoulder and said, "No need, Casillas, you really don't need to ...... like this"

"I know it's ridiculous for the mage to give a newcomer full access to the library, but she must have a reason for doing so."

Casillas raised an eyebrow at Mordo and smiled disdainfully.

"Is this your excuse for self-comfort?"

"She must have her own reasons for doing this?"

"Just like she made a pact with Dormammu, and received eternal life from him?"

"It's all because the Ancient One Mage has her own reasoning?"

Mordo was told by Casillas and did not know how to refute it, and he also admitted that Casillas's accusations against the Ancient One were justified.

"So what can we do? Do you want to force the mage to kick this new friend out? ”

"Or are we going to use the topic to play, and let the Ancient One Master ask for permission to read the Book of Emperor Weishan?" Mordo asked helplessly.

"Maybe the Ancient One has too much power, and her power is unsupervised......"

"Power without regulation will lead to corruption, and I think you must understand this truth."

Casillas said in a deep voice, then turned in the direction of the Ancient One's tearoom,

"She must still be in the tearoom, right?"

Mordo hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Casillas, do you want to ...... Do? ”

"Nothing." Casillas said calmly, "I just wanted to talk to her, about Dormammu, about the new doctor......"

"Gu Yi has made too many mistakes during this time, and I think it's time to correct her."

With that, Casillas turned to Mordo and extended an invitation to him.

"Mordo, do you want to come with me?"

"Me?" Mordo hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I'll forget it." ”

Casillas was not surprised by Mordo's refusal, he nodded, and then walked to the ancient one's tearoom without looking back.

"Since you're not coming, please don't meddle with it."

————————

In the tea room.

The Ancient One Master sat cross-legged on the futon and gently lifted the placket of his shirt.

I saw a black shadow appear on her chest, and this shadow was spreading all over her body.

"It's too late......"

Gu Yi shook his head helplessly, and immediately carefully tidied up his clothes.

Because she already knew that the uninvited guest had just walked to the door of the tea room, and was about to push the door in.

Squeak......

There was a small sound from the wooden doorway of the tea room, and Casillas pushed it open and walked in without knocking.

"Casillas......" Koichi frowned a little dissatisfied, "when did you start coming in without saying hello?" ”

Casillas turned to look at the Ancient One, his expression full of dissatisfaction and resentment.

"What's the point of entering the tea room without saying hello?"

He asked in a deep voice,

"Compared to the mage, you have a secret communication with Dormammu without saying hello, my behavior is not worth mentioning at all, right?"

The Ancient One was not surprised by Casillas's accountability, she had already guessed that Casillas would ask such a question.

"I didn't tell you about this because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to accept it......"

Master Gu Yi calmly replied,

"You know, Dormammu is the master of the dark dimension, and his strength is very strong, even if I go out with all the mages on the earth, I am not Dormammu's opponent at all......"

"Therefore, in the fight against such an enemy, who is far superior to ours, we cannot use the method of hard work, we can only negotiate with him, mediate with him, and find a way to avoid war to stop his aggression......"

"That's how I protect Earth from Dormammu, you know?"

Casillas was not persuaded by the Ancient One's explanation, and his questioning continued.

"And what about your eternal life? What does this have to do with protecting the planet? ”

The Ancient One mage replied calmly, "That's because I can't die easily until I find the next Supreme Mage, and once I die, then the magic side of the earth will lose its guardian......"

"Establishing a contract with Dormammu to obtain a temporary immortal life is also one of the necessary means to protect the earth, and after I find the next Supreme Mage, I will naturally break the contract with Dormammu and die."

"I've actually found my next heir, and I'm about to end my contract with Dormammu, so don't worry."

After hearing this, Casillas immediately realized who the Ancient One was referring to as the "next Supreme Mage", which shocked and angered him, and the fire of jealousy burned brightly.

He had wondered why the Ancient One would open up all the privileges of the library to a newcomer, and why the doctor with a crippled hand had been cared for like never before when he arrived at Kama Taj.

Now the truth is revealed, it turns out that Strange is the successor handpicked by the ancient one.

"The next Supreme Mage...... Casillas sneered, "You're talking about the doctor from New York, right?" ”

"Oh, it's him." The Ancient One did not deny, "He has a lot of potential, and he will be even better than me in the future." ”

This sentence made Casillas furious, and he could not accept the decision of the Ancient One.

"But I am your most proud disciple, you once said that my qualifications are the best among your many disciples!"

"You?" Gu Yi shook his head slightly apologetically, "I remember that when I said this, it should have been fifteen years ago...... At that time, you were indeed the most qualified of my many disciples, but I didn't include Strange when I said this. ”

"If you count him......"

"Shut up!" Before Ko could finish speaking, Casillas angrily interrupted her, "Stop your humiliation of me! You hypocritical woman! You don't deserve to be a Supreme Mage at all, from the time you colluded with Dormammu, from the time you humbly begged for eternal life from the dark dimension of Dormammu, you don't deserve to be a Supreme Mage! ”

"You don't have the qualifications to become a Supreme Mage!"

"Naturally, you are not qualified to appoint a new Supreme Mage!"

"And I, Casillas, must today deprive you of your Supreme Mage qualifications on behalf of all the mages on Earth who have worked hard to resist the invasions of other dimensions!"

"Gu Yi, from now on, I am the Supreme Mage!"

Speaking of this, Casillas pulled out the dagger at his waist, turned on the spatial magic, and rushed towards the Ancient One mage at great speed!
