Three days later, Daji brought Wanda and Pietro to Lan Luo's mirror particle space.
The first glance Pietro took at Lorelei, who was standing beside Lan Luo, he was mesmerized. He had not yet awakened his powers.
Daji, standing next to him, gave him a disdainful look. She had noticed Pietro's gaze on herself earlier, and now he was looking at Lorelei.
Wanda awkwardly tugged at Pietro's clothes. Lan Luo, seeing this, also said with a hint of speechlessness, "Are you willing to become my subordinates?"
The first time Wanda saw Lan Luo, she was captivated by him. His perfect features, strong physique, ideal proportions, and gentle demeanor, along with the subtle aura emanating from him, constantly drew her in.
Lan Luo still wanted to cultivate Wanda, but it wasn't to the point of absolute necessity. Without Lan Luo's support, even if she became powerful later, would he, with the power of six Infinity Stones, be weak?
Pietro spoke up, "If we don't agree, will you harm us?"
Lan Luo said indifferently, "No, it's just that you will remain as weak as you are now."
Wanda and Pietro gritted their teeth, exchanged glances for a moment, and finally, Wanda was the first to speak: "If we become your subordinates, what will our status be?"
"I need a helper. Have you heard the name Chthon?" Lan Luo was also curious if she had encountered him yet.
"No, I've never heard that name before." Wanda thought for a moment; she had no recollection of ever hearing that name.
Lan Luo didn't explain further, simply taking out two magic rings and saying to them, "Daji will teach you how to use the rings. After you sign the dark contract, I will personally teach you magic."
"What about Pietro?" Wanda also wanted Lan Luo to teach her brother magic.
"I don't see any talent for learning magic in your brother." Although Lan Luo thought Pietro's awakened ability was powerful, having fought in high-level battles, his control over time was now masterful. With a direct time stop, all of Pietro's methods would be useless.
This included everyone on Earth, with the exception of the Quantum Realm, of course. But it's impossible to hide in there forever; with the gaze of the timeline, the outcome is always the same.
Pietro also realized that Lan Luo valued his sister's magical talent: "Can we gain the power for revenge?"
Wanda and Pietro's hatred for Tony (Iron Man) primarily stemmed from the death of their parents. Their parents died accidentally during a Stark Industries weapon experiment in their childhood, leading them to view Tony as 'the worst human on Earth' and to be manipulated by hatred for a long time.
"Well, how should I put it? As long as you can pay a sufficient price, I can even resurrect your parents," Lan Luo said, a little ashamed.
Pietro and Wanda's eyes widened when they heard Lan Luo's words. Lan Luo then continued, "But right now, you have no value whatsoever, understood?"
Wanda and Pietro both nodded in unison. Wanda then proactively said, "We will meet your requirements as soon as possible. As long as our parents can be resurrected, we will be your most loyal subordinates."
Lan Luo waved his hand and had Daji take them to rest.
At this moment, Helen Cho also walked down from the luxurious upstairs and said, "She is indeed beautiful; her fair skin looks like it's glowing. No wonder you specifically went to pick them up and are personally teaching her magic."
Christine followed closely, saying, "It seems we're getting old. Lan Luo is tired of the two of us, that scumbag." She then looked at Lan Luo with a challenging gaze.
Lan Luo, somewhat exasperated with the two drama queens, said, "If we don't take them as subordinates, they might become enemies later."
Helen Cho then said, "How is that possible?"
"There are many arrogant people in this world, and some who pride themselves on justice. There is one person who unified all the timelines, so everything he says is correct. The reason we are hiding here is because of the Time Variance Authority, but what if their ruler unifies all the other timelines as well? It's like your destiny is predetermined; as long as you try to break free, a bunch of people will fight you to the death."
Lan Luo hadn't finished speaking when both women involuntarily shivered. Christine then said, "So you need Wanda's power?"
Lan Luo also said, uncharacteristically serious, "Chaos Magic is indeed very powerful. If she can gain the power of the Reality Stone and infinite energy, and then be taught how to manage the magic within her, she will be our greatest helper in the future. After all, one of you focuses on scientific research and the other is a managing CEO. We always need a strong helper, don't we?"
Helen Cho and Christine both fell silent. Helen Cho then said solemnly, "This is the last one, otherwise we'll both ignore you."
She ultimately didn't say the words 'leave you'. Lan Luo, hearing this, raised an eyebrow and said disdainfully, "You two were up all night yesterday and only just woke up; you're in no position to lecture me."
Upon hearing this, both women's faces flushed. They gave Lan Luo a charming glare and then both returned upstairs.
After watching Helen Cho and Christine go upstairs, Lorelei felt like she had transformed from a maid into a mistress. She also curled her beautiful lips and said, "Lan Luo, can I learn magic from you?"
Although she was much older than Lan Luo and the others, her life had been very ordinary. After being imprisoned, she hadn't learned anything. But after seeing Lan Luo and them, she felt like she had lived in vain. How old were they? From their appearance, they were only in their twenties. Excluding their childhood, they had only taken a little over a decade to reach a level where they could converse with Odin.
The closer she got to Lan Luo, the more she was drawn to his charisma. Others might not know Chthon, but she did.
Chthon is one of the many Elder Gods, and also one of the earliest life forms on Earth. He possesses immeasurable magical power. Mephisto, Dormammu, and other demons have borrowed his energy.
Chthon can also bestow magical powers upon others (usually in exchange for a contract), which he typically achieves through spells in the darkhold. Chthon sometimes releases energy through ordinary people on Earth or designated hosts, but no one can contain and control all of his energy. Chthon is the first and most powerful dark magic master on Earth, and Lorelei speculated that Wanda was the person chosen by Chthon.
Chthon is one of the earliest life forms on Earth, and he is also a typical demon. Billions of years ago, the natural life force of Earth's biosphere gave birth to a group of Elder Gods. Afterwards, they began to kill and devour each other, some even transforming into demons. Chthon was one of them. To end this fate, the Earth Goddess Gaea and the God of Life gave birth to Atum. Atum continuously destroyed the demonized Elder Gods, later transforming into the incredibly powerful Demogorge. Chthon and Set, even working together, could not contend with him. Finally, to escape being devoured by the Demogorge, Chthon was forced to flee to other dimensions.
