Bab 143: 143. Artist Amy
Amy and Rina didn't have magic reserves in their bodies like Alexander or Leo. So Alexander decided to make devices for them that can store the energy from around them. Once he did that, it became easier for the two girls. He gave one to Howard as well.
Then he had the idea that his kind of magic should also be usable with some means. So he researched and made new magic. It used the sorcerers magic of hand seals and diagrams to cast spells. They were a bit weaker than Alexander's but still very usable.
Howard had already started to combine tech and magic with runes and Alexander was excited to see what he'd do.
Amy had learned to use multiple paintbrushes with magic. Rina had learned Magic but she wasn't really into anything except eating.
Leo, on the other hand, was a completely different subject. He was still going deeper into the study of magic and wouldn't stop until he knew everything. Leo also had the innate ability to use Legilimency and Occlumency. He remembered that Leo had performed Legilimency on Alexander when he was just born. His only weakness was his physical strength, which could be countered with Alexander's High Human serum.
Things went on normally as usual. Earth was chaotic as always, but at least there weren't many children dying from hunger around the world. Thanks to Kindheart.
Ancient One had asked Alexander to come to the training grounds today. She had some announcements to make.
Soon he came to the training area and found all the monks standing there. The Ancient One was already waiting there.
"What is it Ancient One?" He asked.
"Today I have decided to promote someone here." She replied.
"You mean Mordo?"
"No, you," she said and looked back at the crowd.
"Today we have all gathered here to honor Mr. Universe. We have seen various talented individuals in Kamar Taj but none like him. In all of our known history, there has always been one Sorcerer Supreme at any moment. Because reaching that level of knowledge and strength is very hard and not many can achieve it. But Mr. Universe did it. He didn't just become powerful, he has also surpassed me and I have no shame in accepting that.
So today, I officially announced that Mr. Universe is also a Sorcerer Supreme. Don't worry, I am not quitting. This just means that there will be two Sorcerer Supremes now. Which is quite good for our society." She ended her small speech.
Alexander was still gobsmacked but he quickly accepted the situation. There was no harm in becoming a Sorcerer Supreme. So he addressed the crowd.
"Haha, I wasn't expecting that. Hmm, I haven't really prepared a speech for this. You know, most of you may have come here for various reasons. Some may have come for treatment and some even for finding a path for revenge. But being here changes everyone. You come out of your cocoon, like a new butterfly. I am thousands of years old and have seen many things and kinds of people, and you lot are good ones. Don't ever forget, you aren't here just to become a monk and learn magic. You are here as a part of something big. Bigger than any mortal can imagine. So be honest to oneself and kind to others, let the heavens be the judge of your karma. With that, I'll also announce a grand feast for my promotion so be sure to come to the big hall this evening."
All the young monks cheered when they heard about the feast. The original food of Kamar Taj was very bland for everyone's taste.
"That was a good speech, Sorcerer Supreme Universe." She said.
Alexander's body cringed hearing that, "Ah, let's just stick to Alex. By the way, you call yourself Ancient One and I am older than you. So what does that make me?"
Ancient One thought for a second, "Prehistoric One?"
Howard also walked in, "Fossilized One?"
*Bam* he received a fist to his head.
"Primordial One?" Mordo added.
"Yes, that's it. My codename for this sorcerer society will be Primordial One. Out of here, I'll still be Mr. Universe or Grandpa Universe." He announced.
"Alright, Rusty One." Howard shrugged and started walking away. Alexander waved his hand and a pig's tail formed on his back.
"Goodnight, Howard," Alexander politely shouted.
Howard suddenly stopped as his body shuddered for some reason, "What did you do?"
"What? I just said goodnight." Alexander shrugged. Mordo was trying to hold his laughter.
Howard confusingly went away.
...
Alexander was now the big boss of the Order of Mystic Arts. So he just relaxed while teaching his precious children.
Amy quickly ran to him with a big canvas over her head. She looked too excited.
"Glanpaaaa..." She shouted. Alexander's heart always gets weak whenever he hears her calling him.
"Oh, slow down Amy. What's the matter.?" He asked.
Amy carefully showed him the canvas. She had painted a beautiful panoramic scene of the Himalayas. It was quite beautiful. Just looking at it would make you wanna go and really look at the place.
"Such a beautiful painting, Amy. You are very talented." He praised.
Amy quickly puffed her chest in pride, "Glanpa, I wanna sell this painting. I need money."
"Oh, you just need to ask me then. Your Grandpa is the richest man in the Universe." Alexander started to take out his purse.
"Noooo, I want my own money, Glanpa. Help me sell is pleaseeeee" she attacked him with her puppy eyes.
Alexander couldn't handle it and gave it in, "Okay, but first, tell me why you want money."
"Ummm... It's Glanma's birthday next month and I want to gift her the best comfy chair. She said her shoulders were itchy yesterday." She innocently spoke.
Alexander's heart nearly skipped a beat. He had forgotten about Olivia's birthday. He gratefully looked at Amy with a smile.
~Thank you, Amy, you just saved Grandpa from sleeping on the floor.~ he internally said.
He quickly put his on her shoulder and opened a portal for his apartment in New York.
"Dada, take me too" Leo also came running. Alexander couldn't deny. He was a kid too. So what if he had a super brain?
"Haha, hop on then." He laughed and put him on his other shoulder.
Westeros Bar was always crowded now so he didn't go there. Though no one could recognize him as long as he wanted, it was still too crowded for his liking. Dobby had hired a big crew now so he mostly relaxed.
Alexander invisibly went behind Dobby and kicked his chair. "Get up, Dobby. You'll turn fat if you keep this on."
"Ah, boss? What happened? Did someone attack?" Dobby asked excitedly. Alexander could see that Dobby was bored now.
"No, but I'm transferring you to Finta Protection Unit. You can go there from time to time and catch some bad people. But before that, we need to go to an auction house. Amy wants to sell her painting." He explained.
"Oh, then Amy's wish is my command. Let's go." Dobby wore his coat. Dobby really doted on all the kids in Phixheim. He even treated Hela like a child.
Soon they walked a few blocks and reached a high-end art gallery which was having an auction. Alexander let Dobby handle it and he decided to roam around and see the art.
Dobby went to the event manager and threw some banknotes on his face. The manager quickly agreed to let Amy's painting be on showcase for auction. Soon Dobby himself went and put up Amy's painting in the prime spot. The manager fussed a bit but Dobby slapped him with more money. After all, nothing was worth more than Amy's happiness.
Meanwhile, Alexander and 2 kids were roaming around, looking at art.
"Glanpa, why did someone paint a banana? It's not even good." Amy asked, looking at the huge white canvas. In its center was a painting of a banana.
"Yeah, Dada. It's not even as good as Amy's paintings." Leo added.
Alexander just sighed, "My children. Remember one thing, this world is filled with dumb people. Those who make and buy this are those people. Those that buy Amy's painting are the good ones."
Both of them nodded. Alexander didn't know how the auction was going to be so he had put one of his agents to bid.
After an hour, the auction started.
"The Banana is sold for 2 million dollars." The auctioneer shouted.
"See Amy, that guy is dumb." Leo pointed at the man who bought it. The man noticed Leo pointing at him but left silently. Then it was Amy's painting.
"Our next painting is by an anonymous artist. It's called The Calmness. The bid starts at a hundred thousand,..."
Suddenly Alexander's guy made a bid, "We have 150K...
But soon another guy bid, "We have 200,000"
"1 million," a woman in glasses bid.
Alexander quickly spoke to Dobby telepathically. "Good job, Dobby. You brought more than one bidder for realism."
"Boss, only the first guy was ours. I don't know the others." Dobby confusedly replied. Alexander also quietly sat through the auction. Leo and Amy were dancing whenever a new bid came.
"We have 100 million, any more bidders can bid, this is our last chance. 100 million one, 100.."
"150 Million." An old man who looked like Henry Jonathan Pym aka Hank Pym or Ant-Man(the old one).
Auctioneer finally hammered the bid and Amy's painting was surprisingly sold for 150 million. Alexander had no idea why Hank Pym, the senile old man would buy it so he secretly went closer. He then noticed unknown magic coming out of the painting. It made one really feel like they were in the painting. Feeling the cool air of Himalaya.
He quickly called Dobby, "Dobby, did you cast magic on that painting?"
"No, boss. I didn't do anything. What happened?" Dobby asked.
"I think I found out about Amy's special magic." He muttered.
