The next day, over Nepal, inside a small private plane.
"From here on, you guys can head back on your own."
After Tony told the pilot, he opened the rear door and jumped out.
"Mr. Stark, you forgot to bring a parachute..."
In the pilot's anxious voice, Tony had already jumped out of the plane.
However, for someone like Iron Man, having or not having a parachute made no difference at all.
The nanosuit rapidly covered his body.
In the next moment, flames erupted from under his feet, rushing towards a small town below.
In front of a dilapidated wooden door.
"Jarvis, are you sure it's here?"
Looking at the run-down wooden door, Tony couldn't believe it.
"Yes, sir. After the investigators spent some effort, all the results pointed to this location."
"Well, I hope the magic skills of those mages are better than their carpentry skills!"
With a hint of anticipation, Tony raised his hand to knock on the door.
Creak!
However, just before his hand touched the wooden door, he found that the door had already been opened from the inside.
His hand almost slapped the person's face.
"Follow me."
The person said coldly with a face full of indifference and then turned to leave.
"Eh, This guy seems even more arrogant than me?"
Tony looked at the indifferent guy, feeling a bit surprised.
But he still followed.
Creak.
As Tony entered, the dilapidated wooden door slowly closed by itself. The bustling crowd on the street seemed to have never noticed this run-down wooden door.
"Jarvis? When I was in the sky just now, why didn't I see a place like this?"
After entering, Tony realized that the environment here was vastly different from what he had imagined.
The ancient-style buildings made people feel like they were in a secluded paradise.
"Sir, this place seems to be outside of the real world, and it is impossible to detect the existence of this place in the real world."
Jarvis's answer made Tony feel unbelievable. Could there really be such a strange space outside the real world?
"It seems that this is indeed a magical sanctuary!"
If before, Tony still had some doubts about the existence of magic, at this moment, he was almost certain that magic was indeed real.
"Magic? I hope it can give me a greater shock than technology."
Tony thought this as he followed the indifferent guy ahead.
Soon, led by the guy, Tony arrived at a huge hall.
In the center of the hall, a massive metal censer was emitting wisps of blue smoke, giving people a sense of etherealness.
Even the mood became much calmer.
However, Tony couldn't maintain inner calm at this moment.
Because in front of him, in addition to the person in yellow robes, he saw in the video yesterday, there was also a figure that made him feel extremely familiar, sitting opposite to that person.
...
"Mr. Stark, I thought you would come earlier."
The familiar figure turned slowly, and it was Peter, whom Tony had met just yesterday.
"You... How come you're here?"
Tony's face was filled with shock. He had not expected that the damn Superman had arrived here before him.
"Welcome to Kamar-Taj, Mr. Stark. Please have a seat."
Ignoring Tony's shocked expression, the person in the yellow robes, with a face of neutral nobility, spoke softly.
"Thank you..."
Tony finally recovered from the shock, walked to Peter's side, and sat down slowly.
"Mr. Stark, I already know the purpose of your visit."
Raising her hand to pour a cup of tea for Tony, the Ancient One spoke gently.
"But are you really sure you want to embark on the path of magic? Are you ready to give up science and delve into the illusion of magic?"
In the next moment, the Ancient One's expression became serious, and her soft voice seemed to penetrate Tony's innermost being.
"Yeah, do I really want to give up science? Turn to practicing that illusory magic?"
Undoubtedly, Tony was in a dilemma at this moment.
When he initially searched for information on magic, it was purely to use magic to defeat Superman.
Unfortunately, today that guy had arrived here before him.
It seemed that he was not afraid of the weaknesses of magic.
So, did he still need to continue learning magic?
" Ancient One, I suggest you choose someone else. This guy seems not suitable to inherit the position of the Supreme Sorcerer."
Seeing Tony in a dilemma, Peter added fuel to the fire.
"Who said I'm not a good candidate to learn magic? I am the smartest genius in the world."
Perhaps due to Peter's words, Tony finally made up his mind.
"Mysterious magic? And it seems I can inherit some seemingly badass Sorcerer Supreme position afterwards?"
From Peter's words, Tony got a special piece of information - that after learning magic, he could apparently inherit a supreme position.
Although he didn't know yet what the Sorcerer Supreme position actually represented.
But at this moment, he finally firmed up his determination to learn magic.
"Besides, who says learning magic means giving up science?"
"Magic plus technology could be pretty awesome too."
...
"Magic, just like the technology you know, is just a special way for humans to understand the essence of the world and the truths of the universe."
As Tony decided to study magic, the Ancient One showed a faint smile, slowly introducing the origin and usage of magic.
"The essence of magic is like a special language."
"Magic spells are like the source code of a computer, serving as a means of communication and mobilizing energy from other dimensions, creating incredible scenes in the real world."
"Like... this!"
As she spoke, the Ancient One suddenly raised her hands. With special gestures, a golden energy instantly appeared in front of Tony and Peter.
"Is this magic?"
At this moment, Tony was completely attracted by the wonderful scene before his eyes, his eyes filled with strong curiosity.
Undoubtedly, magic had opened another door to the essence of the universe for him.
"Although it sounds nice, unfortunately, the magic in the Marvel universe has already taken a detour."
Looking at the Ancient One using magic, the special pattern that was faintly visible on her forehead.
Peter knew very well that this was the aftermath of her seizing the energy of the Dark Dimension.
Magic in the Marvel world was a kind of borrowing method.
Mages borrowed energy from other dimensions and had to repay it in another way.
Unless, like the Ancient One, there was a powerful magic god behind her as a backup, giving her the capital to confront the ruler of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu.
"Jarvis, did you record her movements?"
On the other hand, Tony, who was already curious about magic, unhesitatingly asked Jarvis to record the actions of the Ancient One.
"Believe you've gained a basic understanding of magic. However, if you want to learn more advanced magic in the future, you might need to stay here for a while."
Soon, the Ancient One waved her hand, dispelling the magical golden light in front of them, and then stared at Tony, slowly speaking.
"No problem. I lack everything, just not time."
"Besides, I feel that magic is not as difficult as I thought."
Tony was confident, even if his aptitude for learning magic was not good, he still had Jarvis as his incredible cheat.
"In that case, Kaecilius, please take Mr. Stark to his room for some rest."
The Ancient One, looking at the magician who brought Tony in, with a cold and indifferent expression, said.
"Goodbye, Ancient One... Supreme Sorcerer."
Tony glanced at Peter beside him, then hesitated no more and followed that cold-faced guy out of the hall.
"Mr. Superman... or Mr. Peter Parker, did you only come this time to confirm whether he would embark on the path of magic?"
As Tony left, the Ancient One's gaze turned to Peter, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
"Of course, there's more to it. In fact I'm also quite curious about magic."
What Peter said was of course not what he really thought.
He came only to determine whether this could be considered changing Tony's future.
[Congratulations to the host, for initially changing Tony Stark's fate. Issuing Reward...]
