The soul contract between Sebastian and Mephisto solidified, turning into two points of light that fell on the foreheads of Sebastian and Mephisto respectively. The soul contract was completely concluded successfully.
At this time, Mephisto finally showed a sincere smile on his face. He looked at Sebastian and said, "When you give me the signal, I will follow your request and project Hell's domain around you, so that you can receive amplification from Hell while on Earth. However, that is only temporary. Even I can only maintain it for a short time."
"That is enough," Sebastian said.
After taking a quick look at Sebastian, Mephisto looked at Sebastian with a wicked smile and said, "Sebastian, I look forward to claiming your Authority and soul."
After speaking, Mephisto's body flashed with lightning and disappeared in front of Sebastian. Soon, the dark clouds above San Venganza quickly dissipated, and the sky returned to its clear state.
Sebastian had now signed soul contracts with both Chthon and Mephisto, the only two soul contracts he could sign. As a result, both his soul marks from his past life and his primordial world would dissipate. However, for Sebastian now, this was not a disadvantage. It actually offered immense benefits.
Not only did he receive two powerful allies through this method, but he also used it to purify his soul, undoubtedly benefiting Sebastian's future growth.
Of course, all of this depended on Sebastian's survival.
Preparations were complete. Now it was time for the real action to unfold.
------------
Hogwarts.
Upon his return, Sebastian immediately sought out Kaecilius.
Sebastian had not concealed recent events from Kaecilius. Although he had not told him all the details, Kaecilius had a general understanding of the situation. Therefore, when Sebastian summoned him, Kaecilius immediately understood that Sebastian had a crucial mission for him.
"Headmaster, what can I do?" Kaecilius asked.
"Kaecilius, first of all, you can refuse my request. Secondly, this is extremely dangerous and you cannot do it alone. So you need to find teammates who can act with you, whether they are from our school or elsewhere. This is life-threatening. You must tell them this and let them make the choice voluntarily," Sebastian said seriously.
Kaecilius said nothing more, just nodded and said, "Tell me what to do, Sebastian!"
Sebastian had long asked Kaecilius to call him by his name, but Kaecilius had never done so. Now, hearing Kaecilius call him by his name, Sebastian knew that he was expressing his feelings. Obviously, to Kaecilius, Sebastian was more than just a powerful mage or the school headmaster.
To Kaecilius, Sebastian was his companion, a comrade-in-arms, and a friend.
"Kaecilius, I need you to take people to destroy the three Sanctums: the New York Sanctum, the London Sanctum, and the Hong Kong Sanctum!
Now Karl Mordo is also trying every means to destroy the Sanctums according to Dormammu's wishes. You can contact him secretly to temporarily join forces, or you can simply contact Dormammu. With the wand I gave you, Dormammu cannot do anything to you, so you can contact him without worry.
In addition, if possible, seize the Eye of Agamotto from Kamar-Taj for me, but this must be based on your own safety. Do you understand?" Sebastian instructed.
Even though he had psychological expectations, when he heard Sebastian's words, Kaecilius was still shocked. He took a deep breath and finally regained his composure. He said to Sebastian in a deep voice, "Headmaster Sebastian, you should also know that the three Sanctums are Earth's last defense in the mystical world. If the Sanctums are completely destroyed, then Earth will be virtually defenseless against mystical threats. I think you should understand the consequences of that, right?"
Sebastian nodded and said firmly, "Of course I know, but you can rest assured. As long as there are no accidents, even if the Sanctums are destroyed, those beings will never be able to truly descend on Earth.
There is one thing you need to pay attention to: if you see Dormammu descend, you must immediately leave the area near the Sanctums. If possible, it is best to return to Hogwarts immediately. Although Hogwarts's defenses may be at their lowest point by then, they will definitely be much better than the situation outside!" Sebastian warned.
"I understand. I will immediately go find people to act with me," Kaecilius said.
"Kaecilius, there is no need to be too hasty. We still have some time. Ensure your own safety first, and then complete the mission. Even if Master Ancient One will show mercy to you and your team, she is the Sorcerer Supreme after all. You should understand what I mean, right?" Sebastian said.
Kaecilius understood Sebastian's meaning very well. Ancient One is the Sorcerer Supreme. This not only represents Ancient One's strength, but also represents Ancient One's allegiance and position. In other words, in the process of completing the mission, they must find a way to guard against Ancient One's intervention.
"Headmaster Sebastian, I need your permission. I need a sufficient credit reward for everyone involved in this operation," Kaecilius requested.
"Okay, that is up to you. Also... if those three students ask, you can take them with you," Sebastian said.
Hearing Sebastian's words, Kaecilius frowned for the first time and said to Sebastian, "But they are still children!"
"They are not exactly children anymore, and their strength is already greater than some teachers. If they ask, you can take them with you. As long as they hold their wands, I can guarantee their safety. The same goes for you. As long as you hold your wands, I can guarantee your safety. There is no need to worry about them," Sebastian assured him.
"If that is the case... I understand!" Kaecilius said.
Kaecilius did not linger any longer and immediately turned and left Sebastian's office.
------------------
The New York Sanctum.
Stephen Strange and Wong walked down from the second floor of the New York Sanctum. They discussed what to eat for lunch while searching for money.
Since Stephen finished the first phase of his magical training with the Ancient One, he came to the New York Sanctum to guard it with Wong, a small internship assignment.
But things were obviously different today.
As they walked down the stairs, they suddenly saw Kaecilius. Behind him stood five mages wearing black hooded robes, hoods, and white masks. Watching them, both Wong and Stephen subconsciously became wary.
