"To kill or not to kill?"
Having secured the magic ring and the Morgana Grimoire, George returned to face Drake, who was now drenched in cold sweat. He hesitated.
Drake, to be fair, wasn't a particularly heinous individual.
Although he was the present-day inheritor of the Morgana faction, he had never used magic for nefarious deeds. Instead, he made an honest living as a magician, performing on stage to earn his keep.
If Horvath hadn't escaped his seal and sought him o...

"Reveal Direction—Balthazar!"
After calming himself, George began casting a tracking spell to determine if Balthazar and Horvath were still sealed. He needed to confirm whether the storyline had begun to decide his next steps.
"No luck... the tracking magic failed?"
After completing the spell, George found that the golden tracking marker did not appear. Clearly, Balthazar was currently in an untraceable state.
"Reveal Direction—Horvath!"
He tried again, casti...

Flying through the night sky, George soon reached Manhattan, landing atop the tallest building in the area. The rooftop was adorned with four massive metal eagle statues, one at each corner.
As it was midnight, his airborne journey went unnoticed, something that would have been far more difficult during the day.
"2010—this world is set in the same year," George mused, looking at a digital billboard across the street displaying an advertisement along with the current date and tim...

"... Shawn?"
Black Widow's wide eyes were filled with a trace of doubt.
"Yes, Shawn."
George's tone was firm.
Changing Captain America's name for his new identity was to ensure he wouldn't be easily recognized, minimizing trouble for the school. After all, looking so much like Captain America and sharing the same name would undoubtedly raise suspicion.
This decision was made with Steve's consent, as he was also eager to live under a new identity.

Wolverine was born in 1832. During the years Captain America was active, Wolverine also served as an American soldier in World War II. Naturally, he was familiar with Captain America but didn't revere him the way civilians did. It's no surprise he didn't recognize him immediately.
When Captain America disappeared, Wolverine had been captured by Japanese forces and sent to a POW camp in Nagasaki.
"That's right, he's Captain America—Steve Rogers," George explained with a smile. "I...

"Avada Kedavra!"
George practiced the Killing Curse on a fish in a tank.
Under the guidance of the 16-year-old soul fragment of Voldemort, he had successfully mastered the dark magic he most desired: the Killing Curse.
However, practicing one of the Unforgivable Curses at Hogwarts was highly risky. If the ever-resourceful Dumbledore discovered it, George's cover would be blown.
While practicing ordinary dark magic at school posed little issue, the Unforgivable Curses w...

Coulson walked out of the room helplessly, glanced left and right, then took out his cell phone and dialed the Director's number.
Soon, the connection was established, and a familiar voice came from the other end.

Hearing George's firm tone, which didn't sound like a lie, Nick Fury took a moment to carefully recall the details of the past few years.
The more he thought about it, the more unnerved he became.
Sometimes, when you don't look at something with a particular perspective, you truly miss the signs. But once you approach it with the answer in mind, the flaws become glaringly obvious.

Black Widow reached out to touch the barrier blocking her from entering, then sighed with a self-deprecating smile.

Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, wasn't surprised when George appeared.
What had happened earlier wasn't a coincidence. It was likely George had used some kind of ability against her, stopping her from scaling the wall on her first attempt.
Being discovered wasn't a big deal. Her plan was always to negotiate first and resort to force only if the talks failed. However, she had hoped to first sneak in and a...

George obediently led Harry away from the entrance rather than joining the professors inside.

'It should be you who's under attack,' George thought to himself as Hermione dragged him out of the library.
With most students at the Quidditch pitch, only a few—including Hermione and George—remained inside the castle. It was inevitable the basilisk would target Hermione, a Muggle-born witch.
To Voldemort, Hermione was more than a random target; she was Harry's close friend.
But George wasn't worried. His plan all along was to lure the basilisk out, clear...

Just as Makarov finished speaking, a masked mage wearing a hood and carrying five magic staves on his back pushed open the guild doors and walked in.
