Capítulo 294: Chapter 294

These parchments, known as the Chthon Scrolls, were channels through which Chthon influenced Earth and unleashed his power.

Over the ages, the Chthon Scrolls passed through countless hands.

In the 6th century, Morgan le Fay, the sorceress of Arthurian legend, found and compiled most of the scrolls, binding them into a single tome known as the Darkhold.

"Could this parchment be one of the Chthon Scrolls, separate from the Darkhold?" Syd wondered.

The Chthon Scrolls contained vast knowledge of powerful black magic and spells, ensuring that anyone could fully understand them regardless of their language.

This likely explained why the parchment initially appeared blank but then revealed familiar characters to Syd when he picked it up.

The most dangerous aspect of the Darkhold was its ability to corrupt the minds of its users, eventually allowing the evil god Chthon to erode their souls and take possession of their bodies.

Agatha, Wanda, and Strange Supreme were notable victims of its corruption. The black tint on their fingers was a clear sign of this contamination.

Even those who handled mere copies of the Darkhold were subject to its corrupting effects.

Chthon, also known as the God of Black Magic and the Death God, had briefly crossed paths with Syd after he obtained chaos magic.

At that time, Syd had heard faint whispers in his ear, seemingly inviting him to engage in a conversation.

Syd suspected that his chaos magic had attracted Chthon's attention and was on high alert. He resolved to grow stronger to prepare for any potential threat from Chthon.

Yet, as time passed, the whispers ceased, and Syd gradually dismissed the matter from his mind.

Unexpectedly, something tied to Chthon had appeared before him today.

Was it mere coincidence or destiny?

Syd's eyes narrowed, filled with deep wariness.

The thought of Chthon brought to mind his opposite: the God of White Magic.

The Vishanti, a trinity of ancient deities—Oshtur, Agamotto, and Hoggoth—opposed Chthon and presided over white magic in the Marvel Universe.

They, too, created a book.

As the counterpart to the Darkhold, which documented all black magic, the Vishanti's Book of the Vishanti contained the sum of white magic.

In Doctor Strange 2, Strange sought the book to counter Wanda's Darkhold-fueled powers.

The Book of the Vishanti was powerful but not as strong as the Darkhold, given that white magic was inherently less potent than black magic, albeit with fewer severe side effects.

Finding a fragment of the Darkhold here surprised Syd.

"There are rumors that the origins of vampires and werewolves are linked to the Darkhold. If that's true, then finding a fragment of it among these vampires makes sense."

His curiosity piqued, Syd examined the Darkhold fragment closely.

Before long, he discovered a trove of magical knowledge and numerous black magic spells.

One particular rune caught his attention—it could prove immensely useful.

The Spatial Expansion Rune.

By engraving this rune onto an object, the item would gain spatial properties, allowing it to store other items.

Syd had been pondering how to store the Infinity Stones. Carrying a backpack all the time wasn't ideal, especially since it hindered his efforts to blend in as the Messiah.

Now, with the Spatial Expansion Rune, his problem seemed solved.

However…

Syd hesitated about whether to use the rune.

He was unsure if using the fragment would expose him to its corrupting influence.

On one hand, he was wary of Chthon. On the other, he had confidence in his divine nature and other abilities.

His face reflected his inner conflict.

Just then, Karel, who had finally recovered, hesitantly approached. "You… are you the White Knight?"

Syd turned his gaze toward Karel, thought for a moment, then nodded.

Receiving confirmation, Karel's body trembled slightly with excitement.

Meeting a figure as legendary as the White Knight in person was beyond anything Karel had ever imagined. Until now, he'd only seen him on television.

"Thank you for eliminating the vampires here!" Karel expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"They only have themselves to blame," Syd replied, shaking his head before turning to leave the bar.

Karel watched his retreating figure with awe and regret, not daring to ask him to stay.

"Will I ever have the chance to see him again…" Karel sighed.

Outside the bar, Syd's gaze lingered on the Darkhold fragment, his mind still undecided.

Ultimately, for the sake of convenience, he resolved to give it a try.

He reasoned that simply using the Spatial Expansion Rune shouldn't carry significant risks.

After all, Wanda, who had used the Darkhold extensively, had yet to be fully corrupted by Chthon. If she could resist, surely he could handle one use.

With that thought, Syd activated his invisibility and entered a jeweler's office, quietly retrieving a silver ring from the safe—at no cost.

Once he had the ring, Syd moved to a secluded spot.

Summoning the crimson glow of chaotic magic, he levitated the silver ring into the air.

"Light!"

Beams of intense laser-like light converged, etching runes onto the ring according to Syd's design.

Soon, the silver ring was covered in intricate symbols.

The Spatial Expansion Rune was complete.

In an instant, the silver ring exuded a mysterious aura, shimmering with an enigmatic light.

Syd sensed that the rune had successfully activated.

He retrieved the Tesseract, channeling its blue energy into the silver ring under his control.

The ring emanated a strange silvery glow, its energy pulsating with an otherworldly rhythm.

Holding the completed ring, Syd infused it with a trace of his mental strength and divine energy, attempting to peer into its inner workings.

Capítulo 295: Chapter 295

In an instant, a dark space of over a hundred cubic meters appeared in Syd's perception.

He was slightly taken aback.

"This space… it's larger than I expected." (That's what she said!)

Syd was quite satisfied with the internal dimensions of the ring.

In the next moment, he retrieved the backpack containing the Infinity Stones.

With a flick of his hand, the backpack disappeared from his grasp, reappearing within the dark space inside the ring.

After securing the ring, his attention returned to the Darkhold fragment.

"Why don't I feel any corruption?" Syd wondered aloud.

Whether during the creation of the ring or now, he felt no signs of the so-called corruption.

He instinctively probed his body, and his expression subtly changed as he realized something.

Through his senses, he noticed that the Darkhold fragment in his hand was emitting faint yet insidious energy, silently attempting to corrupt his body.

However, thanks to his divine physique and abilities, the Darkhold's influence was negligible and had no immediate effect on him—so minimal, in fact, that he hadn't noticed it earlier.

"So, just holding the Darkhold fragment triggers its corruption…"

Syd glanced at the parchment in his hand with a wary expression.

After some thought, he decided not to destroy it.

After all, the fragment posed no short-term threat to him, and it was an exceptionally powerful artifact for spellcasting, particularly with black magic. Destroying it outright felt like a waste.

The next moment, the parchment vanished from his hand, stored within the ring's spatial dimension.

With everything settled, Syd left the secluded location.

As he walked, his mind wandered.

"I recall that the Darkhold appeared in an ancient house and had some connection with S.H.I.E.L.D. It even showed up in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.…"

After a moment's thought, he shook his head and dismissed the idea.

The Darkhold wasn't particularly important to him. If he happened to come across it, he wouldn't mind taking it, but he had no intention of actively seeking it out.

Elsewhere, Dr. Hank Pym, a middle-aged man with a solemn expression, was speaking to Scott Lang, also known as Ant-Man.

"Scott, this mission is extremely dangerous. You can still back out if you want."

Sharing the same first name as Cyclops, Scott Lang replied, "Got it."

The next moment, Scott activated his Ant-Man suit. His body shrank rapidly, reducing to the size of an ant.

A flying ant swooped down, catching him mid-air.

As the pair of man and ant disappeared, Dr. Pym's eyes reflected deep concern.

...

Twenty minutes later.

As Syd strolled down a quiet alley, absorbing faith energy to refine his divinity, his steps suddenly faltered.

He felt as if something was watching him.

Scanning his surroundings, he saw no one.

Then, he noticed something odd. His gaze dropped to his clothes, and his pupils contracted as his vision magnified.

There, crawling on his clothes, was a tiny figure in a red-and-black suit. The small figure seemed to be searching for something.

The moment Syd saw him, he understood.

"Ant-Man?"

A character who appeared in Avengers: Endgame, pivotal to the Avengers' ability to travel through time.

It was thanks to Ant-Man that Tony Stark and the others learned about Pym Particles, enabling them to shrink to the quantum level and enter the Quantum Realm.

Through the Quantum Realm, they traveled to the past, retrieved the Infinity Stones, and changed the course of the future.

Syd hadn't expected to encounter Ant-Man, let alone find him crawling on his body.

What was this guy up to?

Frowning, Syd recalled, "Wasn't he a thief before?"

In an instant, Syd pieced together the likely motive.

The Infinity Stones?

Sensing the focused gaze, Scott Lang, the Ant-Man, looked up in defeat.

"Seriously? You noticed me already?" he muttered.

"I'm screwed…"

Hearing the faint voice, Syd's hand glowed red, instantly capturing Scott as he tried to leap away.

Now, Scott Lang was suspended between Syd's thumb and forefinger, encased in a small sphere of red energy.

"Hey, hey, let me go!" Scott pleaded, forgetting that his tiny voice was inaudible to most people.

Fortunately for him, Syd wasn't most people. He could clearly hear the plea.

Holding the glowing sphere with a bemused expression, Syd teased, "You've got guts, trying to steal from me."

Raising his free hand, Syd's fingers curled into a flicking motion.

"Wait, wait, what are you doing?"

In Scott's terrified gaze, a massive finger loomed closer.

The next instant—

Bang!

Scott's tiny form was launched into the air, spinning wildly before slamming into a wall.

With a thud, a small dent appeared in the wall.

Scott's body then began to grow, returning to its normal size.

The moment he was back to normal, Scott hastily raised his hands. "Wait, wait, White Knight! Don't attack!"

Syd paused, watching him with interest, curious to hear what he had to say.

"We can talk this out," Scott said nervously.

"There's nothing to discuss," Syd said flatly. "You came to steal my Infinity Stones, didn't you?"

"Uh…" Scott was visibly stunned, shocked that his intent had been so easily discerned.

As Scott braced himself for the worst, Syd's gaze lingered on him, a plan forming in his mind.

He felt little inclination to kill Scott—not only because the Infinity Stones were still secure, but also because the Quantum Realm intrigued him.

The Quantum Realm, with its time-travel capabilities, would naturally pique anyone's curiosity.

Syd even speculated that the Quantum Realm might serve as a hub for the multiverse, a gateway to countless parallel universes.

How could he not be curious?

"Give me an Ant-Man suit, and I'll let you go," Syd said casually.

Scott blinked, stunned.

"You… you know about the Ant-Man suit?"
