After parting ways with Natasha, Wanda walked up to Lorien with a faintly playful smile and an exaggerated sigh of regret.
“Lorien, looks like we won’t be seeing the Ferris wheel tonight…”
One look at the warmth in her eyes, and Lorien could feel the anticipation and fire behind them. If a man couldn’t understand what she was really saying, then he simply didn’t understand women at all.
He only gave a casual shrug.
“It’s fine. I told you—there’s ple...

Once the crisis was over, Lorien hadn’t expected Wanda to suddenly throw her arms around him. What surprised him even more was that, even after what he’d just said, she didn’t let go—instead, she held him tighter.
Uh… what?
He was momentarily stunned, but then he noticed something different in her. Her emotions were intense—a mix of rebirth, excitement, exhilaration, gratitude… and something far warmer.
Guiding her toward a quiet, empty corner, Lorien lowered h...

Gwen’s words caught Wanda off guard.
She hadn’t expected that the first thing this girl—who had suddenly swung in to help—would say was… that. Wanda had assumed she’d hear something like, “Get out of here, I’ll handle this!” or “So-and-so has arrived!” or even some kind of magic chant.
But Gwen’s opening line was actually a compliment about her magic.
It made Wanda unexpectedly happy. Other than Lorien, she hadn’t heard anyone prai...

With the Scarlet Witch taking the field, the situation instantly changed. Compared to rescuing people, using Chaos Magic for destruction was far easier—especially when the targets were mutant rats.
And with Lorien right behind her offering encouragement, Wanda’s confidence soared.
Scarlet energy surged around her as she moved her hands, the pressure in the air so strong it felt as if the wind had stilled. She clenched one hand in the air, and a sphere of crimson power immediat...

The crowd was fleeing in all directions.
Wanda and Lorien held hands, moving quickly toward the place everyone else was running from. Wanda didn’t even know what had come over her. It was as if, with just a small “mm” of resolve, she had taken Lorien’s hand and stepped out of the car—like she was holding onto hope itself.
They were clearly rushing toward danger, yet Wanda’s heart was focused entirely on Lorien. From the moment he had reached out his hand to her just no...

Night had fallen over New York City, and the lights burned bright. Every window in the towering buildings glowed as if electricity cost nothing at all. But on the streets, some lamps shone while others stayed dark, a stingy contrast that spoke volumes about the gap between capital and the people.
A fiery red Ferrari tore down the highway—powered by Lorien’s… efforts!
Wanda sat in the passenger seat, gazing out the window. She cracked it open just enough for the night breeze ...

Next came coffee and dessert time.
Lorien and Wanda were having a great time chatting.
How great?
Wanda talked so much that she got carried away. Her mood was high, and the joy made her cheeks flush. She only realized it after touching her face.
Was it really that hot? She wondered if she’d been too forward. After all, in front of Lorien, most of the topics had been started by her.
Like when she asked him what kind of life he liked.
Lorien answered, “A ...

After reading the data Friday had compiled, Tony Stark found himself even more curious about Lorien Su.
Someone this connected to the Avengers? And on top of that, a close friend of Banner’s?
No—judging by how effective Banner’s treatment had been, Banner probably thought of him as a brother.
Resting his chin in one hand, Tony considered it for a moment, then nodded to himself.
“Maybe I should meet the most skilled psychologist in the country.”

Forget it. He could just take his time with it. If he ever ended up in prison, it’d be something to pass the time.
Next... he stepped out of the building behind him.
Wanda visibly tensed, then pulled up her hood.

The Phoenix Force and the Chaos Force—two of the oldest powers in the universe. That was why Wanda now looked at Lorien with such warmth.
“It seems like fate,” Wanda said with a smile.
“I think so too,” Lorien replied with a grin.
It really was a pleasant feeling.
Wanda then let her guard down completely. She reached for the milk tea Lorien had pushed toward her and took a small sip. Just like Gwen before, her charming eyes lit up. She gazed at the cup with c...

As soon as they stepped inside, a thick stench of blood hit them. In the dim, eerie space, crisscrossing purple-red corridors stretched in every direction.
The deeper they went, the more they saw those purple-red beast eggs, clustered along the passages like grotesque tumors.

Startled by the noise, a struggling figure slammed into the fleshy wall of an egg. Half of his body remained human, while the other half had already begun to twist and deform.

The southern cities of Ur and Eridu were already engulfed, and by dusk, it had reached the southern front.

The next day, after setting up the Vision Ward in his office, Lorien spent his morning the same way he usually did—slacking off.
Mornings were never busy. Hardly anyone came to see a psychologist at that hour, and frankly, he didn’t like working then anyway. Over time, people simply got used to booking their sessions at noon or in the afternoon.
So his mornings were filled with games, books, news, videos—anything to pass the time.
