CHAPTER 669 BRINGING TO LIGH
A few minutes later, Magneto has followed Professor Charles out of the X-Men Logistics room and back into the corridor.
However, at this time, Magneto was not as indifferent as to when he had first arrived. After he saw the X-Men change, Erik had a lot of ideas in his mind. But first, he wanted to accomplish what he had come for in the first place.
“Charles, you know what I came here for and now you have also shown me your so-called changes, shouldn’t you take me to see Pyro and the others?” Magneto said lightly while walking behind Charles.
“Of course I knew you had come to take them back, but don’t worry, they are all right now, and you will see them when you leave. But right now, we have a lot to talk about.” Hearing Erik’s words, Professor Charles calmly replied.
“What else is there to talk about? You know I wouldn’t agree with you so easily, much less join hands with you.” Not sure what else Charles was going to say, Erik stopped and asked.
Huh~
“I do not want your approval of what I am doing, only that facts prove it right. As for whether you are willing to join hands with me, it is not so important to me now. Don’t you see that I have as much strength as your Mutant Brotherhood?” Professor Charles said as moved on without stopping for Erik.
“Charles, I didn’t realize you had so much confidence now!” Erik thought to himself as he watched the familiar figure moving forward and then he also followed him.
“In addition to telling you about the changes and advancements in the X-Men, I have a matter of great interest to you.” Charles continued after Erik caught up with him.
“What is it?” Erik really doesn’t know what Charles has here that would interest him.
“What happened on the battlefield that day may not have been seen by others, but I did see it all.” Faced with Erik’s doubts, Charles said faintly.
Shout!
At this point, the harmonious atmosphere between Magneto and Professor Charles was suddenly broken as a powerful momentum burst out of Magneto. However, facing the sudden explosion of power next to him, Professor Charles continued his journey as if he was unaware of it.
“Charles, what did you see?” Erik asked deeply while staring at Charles.
The battle of the previous two days was full of accidents, but what Magneto was most concerned about was the presence of his childrens: Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, although they didn’t recognize him as their father yet, Magneto won’t let anyone hurt them again.
That’s why Magneto reacted so badly when Charles said that he saw everything.
“The whole thing, you got hurt in the right arm by that Experimented Mutant…” As Charles answered, he glanced over at Magneto’s right shoulder, which had not yet fully recovered.
“What else?” Magneto asked after unconsciously moving his right arm.
“Also… the two Mutants who rescued you. I think you went to Stryker because of those two Mutants?” Finally, Charles spoke up.
Magneto: “…”
Although Magneto didn’t speak when he heard Charles mention the two Mutants who had saved him, Charles can tell from his expression that he’s really upset. Looks like Magneto was really after Stryker two days ago because of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.
“What do you want to say about the two young Mutants? Erik.” Seeing Magneto hasn’t said anything, Professor Charles asked again.
“What’s there to say? As you saw that day, they came out of the blue and just saved my life.” Erik responded to Charles’s question without a change in his expression.
“Quicksilver, and… Scarlet Witch, is this their nickname?” Seeing that Erik still wanted to conceal things from him, Professor Charles directly called out their name.
“You…… How do you know that? Did you know that from the beginning? !” Magneto asked him with a sharp light in his eyes as Charles uttered his childrens nicknames.
If Charles knew Erik had a family of children from a long time ago and kept it a secret then Magneto won’t forgive him. After all, Erik had lost so much in his early years and he won’t forgive his old friend if he was unwilling to give him some goodness in life.
Seeing Erik’s sudden change, the corners of Charles’ lips curled up slightly, “Do you think I really care that much about your private life? I only learned that you have this pair of children not long ago.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me?” Magneto knew that Charles didn’t need to lie to him so he went on to ask.
“Why would I tell you? So that you could find them? Do you know where they were before? What they have done? I think they left after saving you that day because they didn’t want to recognize you as a father, right?” Hearing Erik’s words, Charles kept asking rhetorical questions.
“You!… I’m their father and they will recognize me as such sooner or later!” Erik said forcefully when Charles saw through his situation with Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch.
“Forget it, if you keep thinking like this then maybe I should let you slowly go after them.” Not caring about Erik’s tough att.i.tude, Charles said faintly
“What? Do you know where they are now?” Erik suddenly stopped in front of Charles and asked with excitement.
“Although I don’t know their exact location, I know where they probably are. I’ve been keeping an eye on those two high-mutant twins ever since I knew they were your childrens. However, you don’t know what your daughter is capable of, even I cannot pinpoint their location.” Charles continued after seeing that Erik has taken the bait.
“Haha! Of course! They are my childrens, how could they be ordinary Mutants?!” Although Charles said that he only has a general location, Erik was happy. To keep Top-Level Mutants like Charles out, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are clearly quite strong.
“So, where are they now?” Erik stared at Charles and asked seriously.
However, when Erik finished asking this sentence, Charles looked at him as if he was a fool.
