"So, you are looking for the Book of Vishanti?"
After getting inside the Sanctum, both Chavez and Strange immediately explained their situation to Xyrus.
"Yes." America nodded.
"I think I've heard of this Book of Vishanti." Xyrus said as he looked at the shop on his system and saw the Book if Vishanti.
Book of Vishanti belongs to the Ancient Category in the shop and it costs 3500 SP.
Looking at his SP and saw that he only has 1200 SP, Xyrus can't help but become grumble silently.
He can't even buy anything in the Ancient Category, not to mention the higher categories.
"Do you know where it is?" Strange got excited and asked.
"I said I only heard of it, so no, I have no idea about its location." Xyrus shrugged his shoulders.
Strange sighed in disappointment, he wanted to finish this matter as soon as possible as he wanted to go back to his normal life where he'll just relax in the Sanctum.
Unfortunately, with Scarlet Witch chasing them, having a normal life is a no go for now.
"Then we could atleast prepare until the Scarlet Witch arrive here. I'm sure the Darkhold has something that could allow her to bypass the barrier between universes." Strange said as he seem to fall in contemplation.
"You could stay here for a while. As for the Scarlet Witch, I'll help you take care of her." With Xyrus's assurance, both Strange and America sighed in relief.
To be honest, they just wanted all this stop and go back to their normal life.
"I'll assign a seperate rooms for the both of you. Please excuse me, I'll be going for now, call me if you need something." After that, Xyrus disappeared in a blue flash, leaving Strange and America alone.
"I think we're in a more dangerous situation than being chased by Scarlet Witch." Strange muttered to America, next to him.
"Why?" America followed the flow and also whispered back quietly.
"I think I just saw him wearing something similar to the Infinity Gaunlet and he already has 3 infinity stones. If my guess is right, he's a power hungry person. He might also be interested to your power and steal it like the Scarlet Witch." Strange presented his suspicions to America.
"Maybe you're just overthinking things."
"No, I think I'm right. After all, the Avengers doesn't exist here, I didn't even see Mordo or Wong with him."
"That's just one of my few guesses. But what we should do right now, is to escape here." Strange said to America as the door was opened and a sorcerer in a green robe entered.
"The Sorcerer Supreme assigned me to take you to your rooms." The Sorcerer respectfully said.
"Okay. Thanks." Strange nodded gratefully and gestured America to follow him.
After a few minutes of walking in silence, they were finally led to their respective rooms, luckily, their rooms were just next to each other.
"Let's just sleep for now, and rest our body. We've been through a lot and needed rest." Strange told her before entering the room.
America nodded and also entered her room.
Unknown to them, their moves were being watched by Demiurge.
"How dare they not trust sensei." Demiurge said in anger as he continued watching them.
Meanwhile, Xyrus was back on his room, checking the newly popped up mission screen.

Although Xyrus doesn't have a problem on the mission, however when he saw the reward on mission 5, he almost spat the tea he was drinking.
'Is this what they call 'Love your enemy'?' Xyrus thought to himself as he tried to calm himself down.
"Sensei." Xyrus was disrupted from his thoughts when he heard Demiurge knock and call for him.
"What is it?" Xyrus opened the door telekinetically and asked.
"Sensei, the two of them escaped."
"I knew that they'll escape, that's why I lowered the defences of the Sanctum to let them escape."
"I see. The reason why Sensei let them escape was to use them as a bait for this Scarlet Witch, after all, if the Scarlet Witch knew that they're under your protection then she'll most likely hide and won't be able to attack the two. As expected of Sensei, your wisdom knows no bounds!" Demiurge started rambling and praising him at the end.
'When did I say that?' Xyrus confusedly thought. After all, the only reason why he let them escape was because Dr. Strange doesn't trust him, he could clearly see it just from the look of his eyes. There are also other reasons but the reason that Demiurge made up seems to be the most plausible one.
"Yes. I exactly thought of that." Xyrus agreed. After all, Demiurge is like a child to him, and all child always see their parents as perfect, and the same applies to Demiurge as well.
"Should I chase them, sensei?"
"No, just keep an eye on them."
"Yes."
----
Meanwhile, in the marvel universe, the Scarlet Witch was floating in the middle of a magic circle and in front of her was a black book that seems to exude a dangerous yet at the same time, a fake aura.
Currently, she was using a spell from the Darkhold called, Dream Walk. Where she'll replace her conciousness to her counterpart in another universe.
After a few seconds of searching, she finally found her counterpart, who seemed to be playing magic outside a house.
"What?" The Scarlet Witch muttered in confusion, as what she just saw was the child version of herself.
And it seems like her family in this world are a average family of magicians.
However, this is her only chance, so without hesitation, she replaced her conciousness to her other version.
Just like that, the Scarlet Witch has officially entered the DxD Universe.
