Shadow of the Beautiful World

I was discussing your story with Miss Raven just now.

Merlin pushed the professor's wheelchair and walked in the very quiet castle. Ruiwen followed him, still being manipulated.

Mystique is very dangerous, especially her camouflage ability that is similar to or even better than that of the Skrulls. It is almost impossible to guard against. Once she sneaks away, even Merlin will find it difficult to find her again in the crowd .

This time he was able to capture Rui Wen so easily, it was all because of the key to the mysterious house.

My story with Raven?

The professor was still weak, but he was in good spirits with a smile on his face, presumably the reason Raven came home. He said to Merlin:

There are many stories between me and Ruiwen, which one are you talking about?

Merlin glanced at Ruiwen, he waved his hand, blocked Ruiwen's ability to speak again, and then he said to the professor solemnly:

Miss Ruiwen just told me that it took her a long time to realize that she actually likes you, professor. This time she came back with me, as if she wanted to make up for the past regrets and tell you her inner feelings.

Riven's eyes were angry, she listened to Merlin's nonsense, but she couldn't refute it.

Hehe, stop joking, Merlin. Ruiwen and I have experienced too many things. We have already crossed the boundary of pure love. Our relationship is very complicated.

The professor sighed, he didn't show too excited expression, he waved his hand, and the powerful mental power brushed over Ruiwen's body, erasing the invisible smoke that Merlin used to manipulate Ruiwen.

Those black smoke-like mist quickly returned to Merlin's hand, the professor said:

I can guarantee that Ruiwen will not run away. She is in her own home and should have her own freedom.

Whatever you want, but when I leave, I will definitely take a woman with me, whether she wants to or not...

Merlin frowned, glanced at Mystique who was moving her hands and feet, and said:

Prison is her destination, and I will always pay attention to her. Once she wants to do something dangerous, don't blame me for being vicious.

Mystique glared at Merlin, she snatched the seat where Merlin was pushing the wheelchair, Merlin let go, and let the eccentric lady push the professor forward.

He followed and asked:

I just said that you stole food at Professor Charles's house and then what?

My parents weren't the stubborn kind of parents.

The professor glanced at Ruiwen, and he went on to tell the story between him and Ruiwen, he said:

Actually, I awakened my ability when I was very young. My parents didn't dislike me because of it, although when my ability was out of control, it would cause many embarrassing scenes. But they still love me very much, and they also Accepted Raven, just like they accepted me.

really.

Raven said softly:

Without the care of my adoptive parents, I might have died when I was still young. My adoptive parents are very good and kind people, but unfortunately, there are too few people like them in this society .”

Ruiwen and I lived at home. We went to school together, took exams together, and went to college together in other places until our parents passed away unexpectedly.

The professor said something from decades ago, his voice is soothing and gentle:

Since then, we've taken care of each other and, of course, Raven has taken care of me more often. When I was younger, I was, uh, quite the showman.

yes.

Raven then said:

I also like to use my knowledge of biology to hook up with other girls.

But every time you want to make progress with other girls, you ruin it, don't you?

The professor smiled and said:

Every time, you turned into me and quarreled with my girlfriend at the time, making me alone throughout college, and you were alone, so many boys pursued you, but you rejected them all.

How dare you say that you are not a couple?

Merlin, who was listening on the sidelines, interjected:

Maybe you should have been together when you were young. If you had been braver then, you wouldn't have had those messy things.

What do you know?

Ruiwen said fiercely to Merlin:

Don't judge our past casually, you are just a little kid.

But he's right, Raven.

The professor nodded, and he put his hand on Raven's with some regret, and said:

At that time, I was indeed too cowardly to miss those best times, and I also made you displaced all your life.

That's not your fault, Charles.

Raven was silent for a moment, then she said:

That's fate. It's supposed to be like this. People like us can't have a peaceful life.

I guess the turning point of your beautiful story came after you met Magnit, right?

While walking up the stairs, Merlin looked back at the professor. He was always curious about how the professor got up and down the stairs in a wheelchair.

As a result, Merlin turned around and saw that the professor's silver-white wheelchair seemed to be supported by invisible hands, floating on the surface of the stairs bit by bit. This is not a telekinetic force like Qin Grey's. It is pure spiritual power that is too powerful to affect reality.

Yes, after graduating from university, we traveled to Europe as biologists and philosophers. At that time, it was only ten years after the end of World War II, but the Cold War had already begun, and the situation in Europe as a whole was not very good.

Professor Charles said:

Riwen and I took it as an ordinary trip, but there, we met Eric who was chasing and killing the devils all over the world. At that time, he was full of anger and hatred, but still It’s not as extreme as it is now. He still has the character and temper of a normal person, he is difficult to get close to, just like a hedgehog, but he also longs to have real friends.”

He was never like you, Charles.

Raven says:

I haven't figured it out until now. Maybe we should thank Emma and Sebatis Ann Shaw, who has been dead for decades. If it weren't for their pressure, you would have been with Emma a long time ago. Rick fell out.

Emma? The White Queen?

Merlin asked:

The one who went with the X-Men to save the mutants, the woman who could turn into a diamond?

Yes, that's her.

Raven says:

The former villain, now a recluse, Emma was also a teacher in Charles' college for a while, but she had bad luck. After a mistake killed several students, Emma left here.

That's all in the past.

The professor waved his hand, with a look of regret on his face, he said:

Emma is a powerful and wise mutant. For a person like her, her fate is not destined to be smooth sailing. In short, at that time, Emma was still very young, and she was tempted to join a company that I don't know how to evaluate. organization, a mysterious organization, the Hellfire Club. She assisted a powerful and evil mutant and Sebastian Shaw, trying to turn the cold war into a dangerous hot war.

I, Eric, and many like-minded companions stopped them.

Professor said:

It was a brilliant victory, and together we stopped a world war that could break out at any moment.

Let me take a guess.

Merlin narrowed his eyes and said:

The Cuban Missile Crisis, right?

It seems you know a lot, Merlin.

The professor glanced at Merlin, and said:

Yes, it was the Cuban Missile Crisis. Eric used his ability to control the magnetic field to forcibly prevent the fleets of the United States and the Soviet Union from attacking each other. You may not know, Merlin, that the two sides had already substantially opened fire and even the dangerous nuclear bombs Ready.

Eric saved the world, and Merlin, fighting aliens in 1994, is just one of the many good things he did. He really can't be called a purely good person, but he can't deserve to die.

The professor said to Merlin:

I hope you don't torture him too much. He has already failed. For a person like him, failure is a painful blow.

We're not a bunch of sadists, Professor.

Merlin said frankly:

At least in the island prison, there will be no bad abuse. We also welcome you to visit your old friends occasionally, of course, the premise is that you and your students have to join us. There is Fury and you I won't get involved in the discussion.

Merlin asked:

What I'm more curious about is what happened to the break between you and Magneto?

The seeds of their rift were planted as early as they met.

Ruiwen opened the door for the professor, and the three walked into the professor's office. Mystique stood beside the professor, and she said to Merlin:

Eric's life trajectory is completely different from ours. He was not as lucky as I was to meet Eric and my adoptive parents when he was a child. He was a Jew and was taken into a prison camp before World War II. He witnessed his death. His parents killed Sebastian Shaw in front of his eyes, and that lunatic killed his mother in front of Eric, just to stimulate Eric's more powerful ability to study him.

Raven sighed:

It's not just ordinary people, there are also villains among mutants, and their level of evil is much more dangerous than ordinary people.

I probably understand.

Merlin sat on the sofa, he nodded:

Witnessed tragic events since childhood, grew up with malice, learned cruelty from the enemy and took it as my life creed, used revenge to soothe my inner anger, refused to change, and thus gave birth to my own set of distorted worldviews and values, a Sociopath-standard upbringing.

I had a chance to put Eric back on track.

The professor said regretfully:

But it's a pity that when he faced his enemy, he finally chose an eye for an eye.

He also hurt Charles.

Raven squatted down and stroked Professor Charles' leg, she said:

Charles avenged him, but he hurt his legs, and he lost them because of Eric. That's why I ended up breaking up with him. Eric was too persistent, and he kept looking far away. Let him always ignore the people around him who help him, in order to achieve his goal, he always chooses the most direct way, and this will hurt the people around him.

Don't you hate him, Professor.

Merlin looked at Professor Charles, and he asked:

You suffered because of him, you lost your health because of him, don't you really hate at all?

have.

The professor said frankly to Merlin:

I am also a person, Merlin. After being hurt, my first reaction is hatred. I have also fought against Eric. He is ashamed of me in his heart. He has countless opportunities to kill me, but he He was a complicated guy who never really got his hands on him, and now, decades later, I don't hate him anymore.

Me, Raven, Eric, we've all been through so much.

The professor closed his eyes, and he said wearily:

We are no longer what we were back then. We are no longer friends, but enemies with conflicting ideas. We have chosen different paths, but for the same purpose.

We are still who we were back then. Those things we experienced together have shaped our intricate relationship. We will try to understand each other while fighting. We have followers for each other. We are no longer pure. Sit down and talk like before.”

The professor looked out the window into the night, he said:

I heard from Ororo that you have expressed dissatisfaction with our emotional use of things. I know that things between us seem like a joke to you, but some things are really complicated. You can tell the difference.

Sorry to involve you in our complicated affairs, Mr. Merlin.

nothing.

Merlin says:

My job is to deal with trouble. Well, after hearing the story, let's get down to business.

Merlin said to the professor and Mystique in front of him:

After Magneto was imprisoned, sl.d. will begin to clean up the dangerous uncontrollable factors, that is, the organization of the Mutant Brotherhood. The most extreme and hopeless dangers The thugs will be put in a prison built just for them.

It will be directly managed by SHIELD, and for this matter, we need support from the X-Men.

Merlin looked at the professor with a gleam in his eyes, and he said:

Actually, we can do this without you, it's just a waste of time. But professor, I think, you should be able to understand why I came here in person to talk to you about this matter

I understand.

The professor's expression was a little downcast, and he said:

If we want to live in peace with this society, if we want to take the first step of integration

We have to show our sincerity. What you want us to do next may be different from our previous behavior style, but this is necessary and necessary...

Yes, you are indeed wise.

Merlin nodded and said:

Just let this be a copy from a moderate mutant

Let's vote for the certificate.
