Chapter 727: Chapter 46 Illuminati
" You are making a big mistake. I don't have any malice against your leaders and you imprisoned us to stop Strange."
A few minutes after their teleportation, the heroes of this world captured them during their conversation within Sanctum. Arthur didn't want to make a scene with his people, and gave a way to them but they were leveraging this fact to control them.
" Stephen destroyed the entire dimension. I don't think you are powerful enough to stop that."
Arthur snorted at the foolishness of Christine who was holding him in a cell. For some reason, this cell was able to seal most of his power but he could destroy this thing if he wanted to do so.
" You think these cuffs could hold someone like me or a similar person? All you are doing is meaningless in front of great power."
Arthur didn't hide his disdain for their stupid decision when it came to Chavez and Strange.
Christine thought he was bluffing with a big tone, not knowing he could really destroy this cell. Furthermore, she thought Stephen was a problem even though she was hesitant.
" Listen to my teacher. We are in grave danger and your people might die."
Chavez didn't think Christine was doing this for them since she noticed her eyes. She could tell she was conflicted inside her mind and she might help them.
Meanwhile in the conversation room where two Strange were being held.
" You assume us the biggest threat?"
Strange sneered at their faces, mocking their intelligence because he saw far more dangerous things, lurking inside the darkness.
Mordo didn't take his criticism very well as he showed the image of destroyed reality and what was left behind.
" Your dreamwalking destroyed an entire dimension and caused incursion."
Other Strange refuted his words, agreeing with our Strange who said they were being idiotic. He saw people like Arthur who could destroy countries and continents, and also he saw Wanda who warped entire reality like an infinity stone.
" Wanda is the real problem here. We are just here to help that girl."
Mordo didn't believe in his words, assuming he was lying to them. He knew Wanda was strong in every universe and he acknowledged that fact but twisting reality was even too much for her.
" See it yourselves then. Charles, I beg you."
Charles played the day when they killed Thanos and Strange as both Strange noticed why they were hiding the fact and why they feared them. However, it didn't change the logic behind their reasoning.
" This doesn't make any sense. You aren't listening to us. I demand a conversation with someone like Tony Stark or T'challa."
Strange was confident that Tony and T'challa would be here since every universe had them and he was right. Even in this universe, they were founding members until the incident took place after Thanos.
" Your request has been denied for they are no longer with us."
Reed didn't tell them what happened to them as he simply refused their request. He simply watched them with a calm face that looked like he understood everything.
Beep*
Suddenly the central alarm of the building went off as both Strange looked at each other for they knew who was coming.
" It is the Scarlet Witch. You have to release us. Otherwise, everyone in this room will die."
Carter shook her head to disagree with their claim, calculating how they could defeat her even without their help of.
" We will deal with Scarlet Witch. You just have to stay put."
The other members left the room, leaving only them and Mordo who was still standing.
As for Arthur, when he heard the alarm, the first thing he did was to rip off the cuff. The cuff would certainly work on most people but his body was genetically natural itself, so things like this didn't bother him.
" You should have put more care in my containment like SHIELD. Fortunately, I was able to fool you."
With the simple punch the cell energy was cut off from the source as he turned his wrists to feel more comfortable. His blue eyes landed on Christine who was holding a gun with trembling hands.
" Bullets don't work against me. Do you know about Magneto?"
Christine's face filled with horror, realizing what he meant by that since Magneto was one of the main threats to their universe.
