What happened inside the Mirror Dimension could naturally only be contained within the Mirror Dimension.
However.
The Marvel world was an extremely powerful world.
Within the entire world, there were countless powerhouses.
Some of those powerhouses possessed unimaginable abilities.
For example, the Five Great Gods—some of them could even wipe out the entire multiverse with a single thought.
And the powerhouse revered by Kamar-Taj—
the great trinity, the gods of white magic, the Vishanti—
possessed that kind of vast, terrifying might as well.
As one of the trinity gods, Agamotto was naturally exceedingly powerful.
What happened in the Mirror Dimension should have been "cause and effect returned and restored," with everything remaining internal, as though nothing had happened.
Yet within the River of Time, Agamotto still caught a faint ripple—he sensed that something was off.
"Kamar-Taj… actually produced another genius again?"
"And he even comprehended the Law of Light?"
"That child Ancient One… really does have great luck."
Agamotto wore a smile.
He had always been quite optimistic about Ancient One.
Among the many inheritors of white magic throughout the multiverse, Ancient One was among the most talented few.
Kamar-Taj could also be considered part of his legacy.
So he had always kept a very close eye on Kamar-Taj.
He hadn't expected that, by watching and watching, he'd end up noticing a genius.
"Not bad. Very, very good."
"Kamar-Taj can be said to have a worthy successor."
"Even if Ancient One's lifespan is about to run out, she'll have no regrets."
"This child's talent is far better than Ancient One's."
Agamotto held a book, stealing a moment from a busy schedule.
As he thought, he cast even more of his attention toward Kamar-Taj.
But in the very next instant—
a look of surprise appeared on Agamotto's face.
What did he see?
That child had actually mastered two mutually opposing Laws at the same time?!
And it happened in the blink of an eye?!
This talent…
Even Agamotto was taken aback.
Across his long life, he had seen geniuses before.
But a genius like this kid?
That was truly rare.
"If nothing goes wrong… it seems Kamar-Taj may gain another god."
"That really is uncommon."
"Interesting. Truly interesting—after so many years, something interesting has finally been born."
"It looks like I can look forward to the days ahead."
Agamotto set down the book in his hands, his expression openly excited.
…
What was happening in the deep-layer dimension—
Ancient One and Karl on Earth naturally had no way of knowing.
Ancient One was still reeling from just how absurd Karl was.
To be honest.
Right now, she even felt like she didn't want to go find Doctor Strange as her disciple anymore.
She might as well let Karl manage Kamar-Taj.
He would absolutely be able to lead Kamar-Taj toward a bright future.
However.
Because the protagonist had appeared, the future timeline was now extremely muddled—so muddled she couldn't see through it at all.
So for the time being, she still had to observe a bit longer.
She steadied her thoughts, then spoke.
"Alright. I think our teaching can completely end here."
"You already have enough strength to deal with danger."
"Let's go out."
Ancient One shook her head, speaking with a hint of regret.
Originally, she'd thought she could spend more time teaching him practical techniques.
But—
she'd only just begun.
This kid was far too much of a genius.
He learned far too quickly.
All the preparations she'd made were completely useless!
Feeling slightly stifled, Ancient One led Karl out.
"Alright. You and I will part ways here."
"You can go directly to Asgard to find Hela. I think you should have a way to locate her."
"As for me, there's no way I can go with you."
Ancient One spoke with great solemnity.
Hearing that, Karl also nodded.
Ancient One truly couldn't spare herself.
The Three Sanctums were ultimately dead objects.
As a cautious, steady player who insisted on having every angle covered—
if he didn't have one hundred percent certainty, Karl simply wouldn't make a move.
Karl's gaze settled on Ancient One's chest.
Of course, he wasn't suddenly struck by some bizarre illness and trying to do something weird.
He had his eye on what could be called Kamar-Taj's strongest artifact—
the Eye of Agamotto.
In other words, the Time Stone!
Dormammu had been active lately, so Ancient One kept it on her at all times.
Karl felt that if he could bring the Eye of Agamotto with him,
then dealing with Hela wouldn't be a problem.
Ancient One naturally noticed Karl's gaze as well.
Her face darkened as she spoke.
"Don't even think about the Eye of Agamotto."
"I must rely on the Eye of Agamotto to resist Dormammu."
"Its power is extremely great."
"However, Kamar-Taj's artifacts—you can choose something suitable to take with you."
"These artifacts can absolutely come in handy when it matters."
"Yes, Sorcerer Supreme!"
Karl cupped his fist respectfully, replying with an extremely happy grin.
Ancient One's face darkened again.
She always felt like she'd been calculated.
Kamar-Taj had many precious artifacts, and their power was also very strong.
Compared to Ancient One, Karl was far happier.
Kamar-Taj's artifacts were no weaklings, either.
Most importantly, they could work in tandem with their spells.
Especially the powerful magical relics passed down from ancient times—they possessed unbelievable power.
Doctor Strange's cloak, the magical flail that once trapped Kaecilius…
All of it could be put to use in this kind of battle.
Now,
his confidence in going to deal with Hela was extremely solid.
If he got pushed too far—
he'd just throw out dozens of artifacts at once.
Forget Hela—if it were Odin at his peak, even he would have to avoid the edge of that blade for the time being.
After bidding farewell to Ancient One,
Karl didn't waste words and headed straight into the Sanctum.
Because magical weapons carried powerful forces—and some even had their own consciousness—
many sorcerers couldn't control their power.
So a large portion of the ancient weapons were sealed within the Sanctum,
waiting for a fated wielder to awaken them.
Karl came with Ancient One's order.
The guarding sorcerer of the Sanctum naturally didn't stop Karl,
and allowed him to choose freely.
Then the guarding sorcerer picked up a book and started reading.
He couldn't compare with a freak like Karl.
If he wanted to become stronger, he still had to study properly.
So,
he quickly immersed himself in endless magical knowledge.
By the time he finally lifted his head—still not quite satisfied—
it was already dusk.
He raised his head, stretched lazily, and prepared to go eat dinner.
But the moment he looked up—
his expression instantly changed.
He abruptly rubbed his eyes, realizing he hadn't seen wrong.
All the various artifacts that had originally been hanging on the Sanctum's walls—
were all gone.
The Sanctum had been completely emptied out by Karl!
"…Holy—"
The Sanctum's sorcerer went blank for a second, then turned to shock.
Karl was this strong?
He'd emptied out the Sanctum right in front of him—and he hadn't noticed a thing?!
Thinking of that, the Sanctum sorcerer sucked in a cold breath.
