Ch.1 Even Sorcerers Have to Go to School

Kamar-Taj.

As the training base for apprentice sorcerers, there are many apprentices here every day, following the disciples of the Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One (Yao), in their practice.

In Kamar-Taj, there are three disciples of the Sorcerer Supreme responsible for teaching them magic.

Wong, as Kamar-Taj's librarian, has the most extensive theoretical knowledge.

Mordo is highly experienced in combat and is mainly responsible for the apprentices' training.

As for Kaecilius, he excels at combining theory and practice, and many apprentices regard him as the strongest sorcerer under the Ancient One.

Besides these three, the Ancient One has another disciple.

A child only sixteen years old.

Ronan.

Rumor has it that he is an orphan the Ancient One encountered sixteen years ago while traveling outside.

To give this child a chance to live, the Ancient One brought him to Kamar-Taj to live.

As it turns out, he is one of the few who truly grew up at Kamar-Taj.

However, whenever Ronan is mentioned, most people show rather strange expressions.

Because unlike most sorcerers, his primary job isn't practicing magic but attending high school in New York.

At this moment, he seems to be...

Studying hard?

The person they're talking about is undoubtedly Ronan.

At this moment, Ronan is sitting in a classroom at Midtown High, looking bored as he stares at the teacher at the podium.

Who could have imagined that the disciple of the mighty Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One, would blend into a high school?

Even more so, he possesses the "golden finger" every dimension-hopping transmigrator / reincarnator dreams of.

A golden finger so powerful it even surprised the Ancient One!

Ten years ago, when Ronan was six, he first came into contact with the magic of Kamar-Taj.

It was at that moment that Ronan gave her a complete shock.

The Interdimensional Portal, an entry-level spell in Kamar-Taj, was the first spell Ronan learned, and something incredibly strange happened.

The Sling Ring, an essential tool for casting the portal, is something even the powerful Ancient One cannot use the spell without.

However, Ronan, without using a Sling Ring, followed the Ancient One's hand gestures and opened the Interdimensional Portal!

And when Ronan tried it a second time, he didn't even need to use hand gestures.

With just a thought, he opened the Interdimensional Portal.

Keep in mind, this was his first time encountering magic and casting a spell!

But Ronan understood — he just added a skill point.

That's right, his system is simple and crude: adding points.

Mana, +1!

At this thought, Ronan couldn't help but glance at his system interface.

[Name: Ronan]

[Astral Projection +1: Allows the soul to leave the body for learning, training, and directly attacking other astral forms.]

[+1 Effect: Strengthens the soul, allowing for the instant defeat of weaker souls.]

Yes, you couldn't imagine — someone with such power, blending into high school.

Spending every day with homework and studies.

Unfortunately, this was an order from his teacher, the Ancient One.

An order that had to be obeyed.

Of course, using the phrase "blending in" might not be entirely accurate.

After all, Ronan is ranked in the top three in his entire class.

As for the top two...

Ronan glanced at a boy and girl not far away.

Peter Parker.

Gwen Stacy.

The former, a typical nerd, is always the target of the school bullies.

Over the years, Ronan had finally witnessed the legendary American-style bullying.

As for the latter, no one in the entire school dared to mess with this "princess."

If any of the jocks from the football team didn't want to get "accidentally" dragged into some legal trouble, they knew to stay far away from this princess.

As for Ronan...

His current status was earned punch by punch using Kamar-Taj's self-defense techniques.

Ding, ding, ding.

The bell for class dismissal rang.

This delightful sound felt like salvation sent from the heavens for Ronan.

"Alright, that's all for today's class."

"I'll send the homework to everyone's email. Class dismissed!"

With those words, the teacher left the podium without a second glance and walked out of the classroom.

This was Ronan's favorite thing about him.

Woohoo!

The moment the teacher walked out of the classroom, the universal phenomenon in every school worldwide occurred.

The previously pin-drop quiet classroom instantly erupted into noise.

As a well-known nerd, Peter Parker was the first to rush out of the classroom, moving faster than anyone.

If he were any slower, the school bullies would block the doorway, and what would happen next was easy to imagine.

However, Ronan didn't care about any of that.

He simply packed his things and quickly headed for the door.

As expected, a few white students were already waiting by the door.

They were laughing arrogantly, as if they were waiting for someone.

However, the moment Ronan stepped out of the classroom, the laughter abruptly stopped.

The expressions on the faces of the white students froze.

They looked at each other and saw a single word in each other's eyes.

Pain!

"R-Ronan..."

"We're not here... not here for you today."

The leader of the students swallowed nervously, clearly anxious.

However, Ronan merely glanced at them before brushing past.

At the moment of passing, the breath they had been holding seemed to release again.

The student who had spoken felt as though a heavy stone had finally fallen from his heart.

Not for any other reason.

But because Ronan's punches hurt too much!

However, in Ronan's mind, these guys were less significant than the beautiful weekend ahead.

Finally having a break, spending time on them would be a huge loss.

So, Ronan quickly left the school.

He was going to find a quiet place to open a portal and return to Kamar-Taj.

However, just as Ronan stepped out of the school gates, a deafening roar suddenly filled the air.

Following it were the screams of many people.

In the distant sky, a gigantic black hole appeared!

One by one, aliens began flying out of the black hole.

Ronan couldn't help but gape.

Is today The Avengers (first movie)?
