Dropped. IDK if it'll get a better development in further chapters but this kind of story is not my kind of thing. First of all, it's shallow. Maybe the author's inexperience, but he can still improve. As a reader, I emphasize on rating a good story from its fine details. Ancient One is the Sorcerer Supreme and a wise old woman as expected from her old age and title, also extremely powerful. The last tine of defense. Her character is mysterious and cryptic. She has access to time and thus knows the past and future events well. Also has a vast amount of corresponding knowledge of the law of time. These details alone makes her a complicated character. So Peter knowing her is already a bad indicator that should tick those boxes in full marks for her. Adding the fact that he didn't give even a hint about how he ended up knowing what he shouldn't know. And a threat is not a threat if it stops being one. The fact that she readily agreed if you could call that a deal, despite the inconsistencies of the situation is pretty hilarious. I can only imagine Dormammu's IQ/EQ. There's so many plot holes to spot even from earlier few chapters, and that's supposed to be when you shouldn't make mistakes, the early phases. I'd want to be vocal with it as it would also help the author in improving his skills. Good luck!
From one author to another, let me say this. I know how demoralising it is to pour one's heart and soul into a story and not get the expected results. I don't know about you, but the way I moved on from that was to write a story that I would enjoy. Not what I thought would garner me the most readers. Now, writing is a lot more fun. Sure I only upload weekly, but to offset that a little, my chapters are 3-5k words long. But that's just my solution. You might have your own. All I ask is that you do what makes you happy, everything else will hopefully follow.
Lost interest. Completely trashed Spider-Man. Might as well have done a murder hobo Spider-Man. At least then it would be understandable. Ancient one is not like that and also MC’s character is like a wish fulfillment rather than anything else. On top of that learning magic like that destroys their ideology. For one thing he has no way of knowing if he can use magic at all. Second the last thing one would want help from someone who is under a magical contract. If she doesn’t bother you then it’s 100% best not to touch the ancient one in anyway shape or form. Basically pretend she doesn’t exist and continue on your way.
