Awakening from the Dream

Agatha continuously absorbed Wanda's chaos magic, draining her until Wanda's skin wrinkled and she turned into a withered old woman. Despite this transformation, Agatha refused to let Wanda go, as all her previous promises were nothing but lies!

Now that she felt her plot had succeeded, Agatha dropped all pretense and revealed her true malicious intentions. She openly declared her plan to destroy the entire illusion of Westview and eliminate Wanda's family.

With a smug expression, Agatha prepared to cast her spell, only to find that her magic had inexplicably failed. She tried twice more, but to no avail. Her face twisted in disbelief and panic.

Meanwhile, Wanda, who had appeared frail and aged, gradually regained her vitality and youthfulness. She calmly observed the panicked witch and then gestured, causing mysterious runes to illuminate around them. These runes undoubtedly reversed the situation, stripping Agatha of her ability to cast spells.

Agatha looked on in disbelief. "Runes..."

"In a specific space, only witches who use the correct incantations can wield magic. Thank you for teaching me. But I don't need you to tell me who I am," Wanda calmly proclaimed. However, as she spoke, a crimson crown constructed of scarlet magic materialized on her forehead, adding an air of dignity and mystery.

Agatha was dumbfounded. She recognized the runes but couldn't believe that Wanda had learned her magic in such a short time. She had thought her own talent among witches was exceptional, but facing Wanda, who had been a novice just hours ago, Agatha felt the true meaning of inadequacy.

She could no longer muster a smile; her face was filled only with despair and fear. She despaired at Wanda's extraordinary talents and feared for her own future and fate. But she had no chance for remorse now.

Seizing her advantage, Wanda extended her arms, and countless scarlet energies surged toward her like water into the sea. Agatha screamed in terror, realizing that her hard-earned chaos magic was flowing back to Wanda, who was the true mistress of chaos magic.

Before Agatha could even grasp the power of chaos within her, she relinquished it all once again. Wanda, having reclaimed this chaotic magic, officially awakened as the Scarlet Witch. With Agatha powerless to resist, Wanda decided her fate.

Agatha, ever deceitful and cunning, attempted to save herself, claiming that her knowledge and abilities could be of use to Wanda in the future. But Wanda had seen through her deception. She chose to trap Agatha forever within the illusion of Westview, making her a mere puppet.

Agatha couldn't accept this outcome, finding existence as a puppet even more agonizing than death. But at that moment, she was powerless. With a wave of Wanda's hand, Agatha reverted to her former self, the nosy neighbor who willingly played the role assigned to her, unlike before when she had taken on that role willingly.

Watching this, the spectators outside the video screen, whether ordinary viewers or players, breathed a sigh of relief. Agatha was indeed a bothersome character, and her fate was well-deserved!

In the final scenes of the video, Wanda and Vision reunited with their children, but after enduring these tribulations, Wanda realized that the environment she had created was ultimately a beautiful dream. Despite its beauty, it was still just a dream, and it was time to wake up. She decided to dispel the energy barrier enveloping Westview. Once it was gone, the entire town would return to its original state, but her beloved husband and children would also disappear...

At night, after putting their children to sleep, Wanda and Vision stood together by the window, quietly waiting for the energy barrier to retract. It was a scene reminiscent of lovers embracing before the end of the world, filled with both romance and tragedy.

Finally, unable to contain himself, Vision asked Wanda what he meant to her.

Was he merely a replacement for the real Vision, a consolation in her dream?

Wanda looked at him with tender eyes, gently caressing his cheek, and told him that she had created him using chaos magic and the power of the Mind Stone within her. She said softly, "You are my sorrow, you are my hope, but most importantly, you are my beloved..."

"Goodbye, my dear."

As the scarlet energy barrier passed through, Vision's form gradually dissolved into points of light, and the dream-like home Wanda had awakened disappeared, leaving behind only the overgrown foundation of weeds.

For Wanda, this experience was undoubtedly a long and beautiful dream. Although it only lasted a short time in the outside world, she had experienced the happiness and warmth of family life in the dream. Now that the dream was shattered, she left Westview and secluded herself in a remote forest.

However, she also delved into the study of magic, becoming increasingly engrossed in the ancient and mysterious book that belonged to Agatha, the Darkhold. She adorned herself in the attire of the Scarlet Witch, which was both beautiful and mysterious.

After the video ended, Wanda sighed in relief, pressing her hand to her forehead. The impact of this glimpse into the future was significant, and she felt a mix of emotions.

Peter glanced at her cautiously and reminded her, "Um, miss Wanda, that magic book doesn't seem like a good thing. If any of these events were to happen, I suggest you treat that book with caution."

"The Darkhold belongs to the witch Agatha, and from her actions and the appearance of the book, it carries an ominous aura."

Wanda shook her head. "I don't know. I don't know if I'll ever encounter her, but I don't want this kind of future to happen. Do you understand, Peter? I don't even know Vision now, but everyone already sees me as his wife! It's too... insane. I don't want my future to be a predetermined outcome!"
