"Huh, what do you mean?" John asked as he was surprised. All the tribe members who joined the ceremony were also surprised by this declaration, including T'Challa as nobody expected Erik to say that.

"I have been here for the past 7 days. The people who know me here don't really look at me with good eyes, they treat me as an outsider. Even if I become their king a time will come when they will stop listening to me. I never wanted to become the king, I just wanted revenge and I think he has gotten the punishment which he deserved even though I would have loved killing him myself."

"I have always wanted to change the world and I don't think Wakanda has enough power to give me that. The Avengers and the Umbrella had been working towards that goal and I would rather join them than this conservative country." Erik said.

John never expected that Erik would ever say that. In the original world Erik became the king because he wanted revenge and for changing the world for a better place. It seemed since John had touched the destiny of Erik, this made him take a different decision.

John now wondered if TVA would come for him. Surprisingly TVA didn't come for Pietro. And it was probably because he had warned Mobius and spoke of Alioth. This must have scared Kang a bit. Anyway John didn't care but was happy to see Erik take a totally new decision.

"I understand. What are your plans now?" John asked.

"Can I join the Avengers?" Erik asked.

"You will have to talk to Wayne about that. He is the main person in the team." John said. "So want to leave with me?"

"Sure. I have nothing here." Erik said. John nodded and turned around to all other members of the tribe and said.

"I think most of you know about my powers. I can dream of other parallel universes and in this way I knew what actually happened before with the previous King. The funny thing is that in most parallel universes the Black Panther is one of the main members of the Avengers. Now we stand on opposite sides. As I said before, the Avengers won't interfere in Wakanda but don't stand on the other side of us, it won't end well. Goodbye."

John vanished with Erik after that. All the Wakandans were ashamed of what just happened. This was a huge blot in their reputation and even their pride. The Jabari were probably laughing at the other members of the tribe. M'Baku challenged T'Challa and this fight would take place after a day as he just fought against Erik and was tired.

Later T'Challa would be crowned as the King after defeating M'Baku but that was a story for another day. John after vanishing appeared in the dimension of the League again with Erik.

Erik thought he would be in Jurassic Park but didn't expect he was in snowy mountains. He even saw many people wearing full black standing in a circular manner near a cliff. On the edge of the cliff were two half naked men. One was wielding a sword while the other a shield.

Erik knew one of them. Captain Steve Rogers, but he didn't recognize the other guy.

Yes, Captain had decided to accept the duel and was ready to fight Ra's. He came to this dimension 2 days ago as he wanted to see how the League worked and would take concrete decisions only after seeing with his own eyes.

Suffice to say he was impressed by the discipline and training. The members were basically top level assassins and they did almost all forms of combat. After much contemplation he finally decided to fight Raas.

"Who is Captain America fighting?" Erik asked as he was curious.

"Ra's al Ghul, the Leader of the League of Assassins." John replied.

"The League? They are real too? Why are they fighting? Aren't you gonna stop them?" Erik asked as he was surprised.

"No. Steve is fighting to be the new leader of the League?"

"He will fight to be the leader of the League? Was Captain America defeated by the League before? Because as I remember only who survives the sword of Ra's al Ghul, will become the Ra's al Ghul." Erik asked. This surprised John as he never expected Erik to watch his works very minutely.

"Don't always trust my work. That's just one part of the story. Ra's is becoming old and he needs to give away his throne to someone. So we choose Steve to take the mantle and carry on. This would keep the League alive and well and have better control in the underground world." John replied

"I understand." Erik said.

The fight started between Steve and Ra's and it was intense. Captain used his shield to defend while Ra's used his sword to attack.
