Ancient One’s POV

In the hallowed halls of Kamar Taj, I sat immersed in my study, my eyes tracing the words of an ancient tome. Suddenly the air around me shimmered and a message materialized from a communication spell requesting my presence at specific location.

This was something truly unexpected. Having the time stone, I knew my future too accurately and this event was clearly something that was not supposed to happen.

As such, I was immensely surprised by such an unforeseen event. The only possible event was that it was interference from an other dimension. So, I had to investigate.

Reaching for the time stone, I attempted to peer into the future for insight. However, to my shock, the stone revealed nothing. The gravity of the situation was clear and I knew that I must respond.

After alerting the other sorcerers of Kamar Taj of the potential danger, I conjured a portal and stepped through, arriving in the vast expanse of the African Savannah. Before me, an isolation barrier shimmered in the faint starlight.

With the sense of trepidation, I crossed the barrier. To my surprise, I found a Spider person inside wearing a sorcerer’s garb. Furthermore, the Eye of Agamotto on his cloak clearly revealed him to be a Sorcerer Supreme.

He was standing in front of a magical circle which housed a cocoon formed of red lightning. The magical circle glowed a rainbow colour creating a symbol of a spider on the cocoon, constantly channelling magical energy into it.

The importance of Spider people who bound the multiverse was a secret known only to the Sorcerer Supreme. However, the Sorcerer Supreme was bound by strict rules to help a Spider person only when he contacted them first. The sorcerers were not allowed to contact a Spider person on their own.

As such, it was very rare for a Spider person to become a Sorcerer Supreme in any universe.

However, I did not know why a Spider-Man who was even a Sorcerer Supreme had come to this world and contacted me.

But one thing was clear from the magic circle in front of my eyes. This Spider Person was clearly interfering into this world’s fate and doing something which should never have taken place.

Interfering into another world’s fate could cause damage to the world which was only lesser to the damage caused by the breaking of an absolute point in time.

“How dare you interfere in this world’s fate? As a Sorcerer Supreme, you should know what will be its consequences?” I shouted angrily at the Spider Sorcerer for doing such an immoral thing.

“Before you start judging me, examine the situation clearly to see if there are any dimensional distortions.” The Spider Sorcerer asked calmly.

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

“How can there be none?” When I used a scan to check, I was stunned to find that the world was as stable as ever.

“Don’t worry. Nothing will happen. I have long since mastered how to do these tricks.” The Spider Sorcerer explained. From his tone, it seemed as if he had lived nearly as long as me.

“Now let's discuss why I called you here. You may call me Spider Supreme.” The Spider Sorcerer or rather Spider Supreme finally gave his title.

“I conducted an experiment on young Peter here who would have died if I had not conducted this procedure to save him.” Spider Supreme gestured to the red lightning cocoon.

“This procedure involved granting him the powers of a certain being and you can see the results.”

Indeed, I could feel the massive amount of magic coursing through the cocoon. If I hadn’t been told that it was a human in front of me, I would have mistaken the person inside the cocoon for an other-dimensional being.

“After Peter awakens, he would not only need help in controlling his newfound powers but he also would require proper guidance to nurture his magical potential. I want you to take him in as your student. Teach him all you can.” Spider Supreme asked me to guide Peter and teach him all I could regarding magic.

Hmm… It was not a bad proposal. Besides, having such a powerful person in Kamar Taj would only be beneficial to us.

As I contemplated his request, Spider Supreme asked another one. “Furthermore, reach out to the martial artists of Ta Lo. Peter must also learn their mystical martial arts. Make him the strongest you can.”

Asking the people of Ta Lo to take a student was not impossible although a little difficult. But first, I wanted to know something.

“Why do want to make him so strong?” I asked curiously. His request to make Peter the strongest we can seemed to be quite suspicious. As such, it was necessary for me to know his motives.

“That is not something you need to know. I just need Peter to do me some favours once he is strong enough.” Spider Supreme replied coldly, clearly not wanting to reveal his motives.

Before we could continue our conversation, a call came on Spider Supreme’s wristwatch.

“Hello, dear!” Spider Supreme responded to the call in such a sweet tone as if his cold and powerful persona from before was nothing.

A cold, female voice sounded from the device. “It has not even been a few days since our marriage and you have already started gallivanting the multiverse again, my dear husband.”

Hearing his wife’s voice, Spider Supreme became flustered and spoke in a bid to calm her anger.

“Morgan, dear. Don't get angry. I have my reasons. I am coming back in a few minutes.” Spider Supreme consoled his wife Morgan, promising his imminent return.

“It seems that I must return. Don’t worry. From now on, I will not interfere much in this dimension.” Spider Supreme announced his imminent departure.

Before he went back to his own world, he turned to me with his final words.

“I forgot to remind you but Peter here also has an X-gene although it is currently developing. As such, you should be prepared for mutants to contact Peter later.”

To think this young man actually has an X-gene. No wonder, Spider Supreme said that he had great potential.

“Take care of Peter. He may have escaped his fate but his journey onwards will be a tumultuous one. I hope you will be with him throughout this journey.” Spider Supreme requested me to guide Peter.

“Don’t worry. He will be in good hands.” I assured Spider Supreme that I would take care of Peter.

“Very well, then.” Having received my assurance, Spider Supreme opened a unique rainbow coloured portal and leaped into it, returning to his own world.

Soon after he left, the lightning cocoon enveloping Peter slowly disappeared and the magic circle also deactivated. Let’s see who is this new disciple of mine?
