Chapter 141 : The Gate of Hell!!

[BOOM!]

[Outside the wooden house, a sudden sound reverberates, resembling something falling to the ground.]

[Astral Wanda's projected body and Strange's astral form simultaneously lift their heads. In the next moment, the two swiftly fuse together, and the dark divine book spins and vanishes.]

This scene startles Doctor Strange.

In the astral projections he studied, after the spiritual body emerged, the physical body remained immobile, resting.

Yet, Wanda defies this unwritten rule.

And that book, merely a glance, fills him with an intense foreboding!

["Wanda."] 

[A man's voice echoes from outside.

The familiar voice widens Strange's eyes in surprise!

[The following second, a man donned in a red cloak and sporting a beard enters.]

[Wanda, still in her sportswear, displays a subtle acknowledgment of Doctor Strange's arrival.]

[She picks up a kettle, pours a glass of water, and hands it to Strange.]

["Why did you suddenly come to me?" Wanda casually inquires.]

[Strange contemplates for a moment and then accepts the water glass, taking a sip before speaking:]

["I saw Agatha."]

[He continues to explain: "As it was a magical occurrence, SHIELD specifically invited me to investigate."

[He was aware of the magical energy eruption from the start, but at that time, it was only two weeks post the finger snap crisis, and Kamar-Taj was overwhelmed with tasks.]

[Moreover, he sensed Wanda's presence in the temple formation, so he paid it no mind.]

[When he finally finished his tasks, Peter Parker sought him out again.]

[Assisting Peter Parker encountered a minor hiccup, but fortunately, it was resolved in the end.]

[Yet, it has been a year now.

(…)

[Wanda nods with composure: "So, you let her go?"]

[Strange shakes his head 🙂

["No, initially, my intention was to bring her back to Kamar-Taj and seal her, but the retribution you meted out sufficed, so I left her there."]

[He takes a deep breath, and the purpose of his visit unfolds.]

[He meets Wanda's gaze directly and says solemnly:]

("Wanda, since you have vanquished Agatha the Black Witch, the Book of Darkhold must be in your possession. Give it to me, and I'll restore the seal at Kamar-Taj. You don't grasp how perilous it is."]

["I know!"]

[Wanda interrupts Strange's words, unyielding:]

["You're too late; I can't surrender the book."]

[If it were any other day, she wouldn't hesitate.

"But now, she relies on this book to save her own child!!] 

[The flame of her soul has been reignited.

Off-screen, Ancient One sighed.

It unfolded exactly as she had anticipated!

After Wanda discovered that her two children were not merely creations of her own, but possessed souls.

As a mother, one would unquestionably go to great lengths to save their child.

In this moment, all entities standing before Wanda, be they benevolent or malevolent, even the entire world, would become adversaries!

[Doctor Strange shakes his head:]

"No, Wanda, you truly don't comprehend the significance of that book." 

[He paused.] 

"My intentions extend beyond dimensions; they are also aimed at saving you." 

[A scarlet light gleamed in Wanda's eyes, and as she took a step back, the Scarlet Witch's robe and crown materialized on her like liquid.]

[She gazed coldly at Strange and stated:]

["Sorcerer Supreme Strange, I don't require rescuing.

(As Wanda's voice fell, the Rune in the wooden house illuminated.)

[Strange sighed; his gaze turned resolute in the next moment. His hands flickered, and a golden magic circle materialized with sparks!]

["The craftsmanship is flawless, but it's regrettable that my power originates from a more advanced existence, rendering the forbidden magic of the Rune useless against me."

[Wanda slowly raised her palm, turning it gracefully.

"Of course, I'm aware it's ineffective, and these Runes aren't meant to imprison you."

[In the next moment, the scarlet Runes melted rapidly and flowed to the ground, forming a scarlet vortex.]

[Wanda didn't step into it, leaving only a chilling remark in Strange's ear. "

["Only this time, the next time you stand in my way, you will be my enemy."

[Strange hovered in the air, observing the surrounding cabins and the vast lake disappear.]

[In the next moment, he seemed to recall something, his expression changed, and he swiftly opened a portal.]

[Unfortunately, he arrived at West View Town too late. In just over ten seconds, Wanda had already spirited Agatha away. "

[Concern filled Strange's eyes; Wanda was undoubtedly planning to take Agatha away!]

[Unable to locate her at all, he could only sigh and return to Kamar-Taj, monitoring any high-energy magical reactions on Earth.]

Marvel World.

Deadpool produced a bucket of popcorn from nowhere, slouching on the sofa while munching, and simultaneously waving to Tony.

"Landlord, Come, watch it together."

"Next, It's a duel between two mages, and the special effects must be really co000000ol."

Tony, burdened with the eccentricity, watched with worry in his eyes.

He could now perceive that Wanda's emotional state was too unstable, and even if this future didn't come to pass, other crises were likely to unfold!

[The screen darkens, and when it brightens again, it reveals a castle.]

[Agatha has awakened, sitting gracefully on the sofa and sipping the black tea brought by the candle butler.]

["I want to die smelling this...)

[After a contented sip, Agatha looked at Wanda and smiled:]

"I told you, you would return to me."

[Wanda gazed blankly at Agatha:]

["No nonsense, I want to know how to get to hell.

[The Book of Darkhold doesn't detail the method to open hell, only how to access the dimension of black magic."]

[Agatha chuckled 🙂]

["Why go to hell? It's foul and hot, filled with irrational demons everywhere."

[Then Agatha leaned forward, an odd expression on her face:)]

["Most importantly, don't you know about the realm of the arch-devil Mephisto?" Wanda responded coldly, "I just want to see him."

[Agatha was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Little girl, do you know what you are doing?"

Wanda's eyes remained unshaken.

["Stop talking nonsense. Send me to hell, and we will be settled. I won't trouble you again."

"No problem!" Agatha nodded.

"But I have a question. What are you going to do there? Although you have become the Scarlet Witch, I don't think you are Mephisto's opponent, especially in hell!"

Wanda stood up, looking down at Agatha with indomitable faith in her eyes, "I just want to take back what belongs to me from him."

Agatha laughed wildly, "Get something back from Mephisto? Interesting, so much fun! I didn't expect to see this scene in my lifetime. As expected of the Scarlet Witch who destroyed the world in the prophecy! Okay, then I'll accompany you on this crazy journey. Come with me!"

In the dark and dry forest, five skull eyes floated in the air. As Agatha became obscure, layers of incantations sounded, and green flames lit up in the eyes of the five skulls. 

The next moment, these skeletons hit the ground one after another. In an instant, golden lines appeared on the ground, but as the laughing skeletons collided, these lines began to dim. 

When the last skeleton hit it, the golden lines were completely broken and dissipated.

The wind blew, Agatha opened her arms, and the purple magic started to build a magic circle on the ground. When the spell stopped, the magic circle on the ground turned into a lava vortex, bubbling with a thud. 

At this moment, the dark withered forest suddenly lit up with golden light, and a shining portal appeared.

"Wanda!" Strange roared out angrily, but it was too late. In front of him, Wanda and Agatha jumped into the lava without hesitation!
