《Multiverse of Marvel》356. Magneto

"I don't even know you." Strange said as he finally used magic to get away from John. John didn't attack Strange again and just looked at him closely. He was trying to find out if Strange was lying. John even used small mental manipulation and his charm to get any hint that Strange was lying but didn't find anything.
"You really don't remember me?" John asked.
"No. I seriously don't. Who are you?" Strange asked.
"Somebody who has a grudge against you. Will you mind if I look into your past a bit?" John asked.
"That is a violation of my privacy." Strange denied access. John could look into a person's future using magic but that would require the other person's approval. John sighed, he wanted to know what Strange did to make himself completely forget.
"Strange, did anything happen to you in 2016?" John asked.
"2016? No, it was the same as every other year. Fighting villains. Wait. There was one day, I can't remember. I have a photographic memory so I always remember everything. But that day is totally black to me." Strange said as he too had felt it weird for quite some time.
John now was in a thought. He could only speculate that Strange of this universe got visitors. Then after joining Black Priests he came to John's universe but was brutally beaten down. And since every Earth needs a Sorcerer Supreme, he came back and made a copy of himself and sent him to be the magical guardian of Earth.
Since the Priest Strange can never be in any universe and needed to be on the side of balance, he chose to go with the Black Priests and leave his copy here with all his previous memories.
Only this would fit the explanation. John surprisingly couldn't find Strange even using his multiversal cosmic awareness. He didn't have any evidence to prove this theory but that is the only theory that could be speculated.

And this Strange even had his arms back!
"I have an idea of what has happened to you, but I would rather go into it. You all have enough of a headache to deal with." John said.
"John, does Strange owe you money or something? I can pay you if he has borrowed." Tony said in his classical and mocking tone.
"I am richer than you. So no, I don't care about money. Anyway, since Strange is here, let's go back. I think you all have a lot to discuss." John said. And then with Strange they vanished and came back to the Resistance headquarters.
"Was that magic?" Strange asked.
"Yes." John replied. Strange had never seen such kind of magic before. It seemed like it worked on a different theory altogether.
Strange wanted to research more on it, but he needed time for that, and this was definitely not a good time to talk about it. They have a mission to fulfill.
Finally the meeting started. Tony, She-Hulk, Spiderman, Daredevil, Luke, Moon Knight, Hawkeye, Ms. Marvel and many others have joined now.
"I am sure that it was Magneto who did this. Only he can do such absurd things. He had always wanted to be the leader of mutants. And now his daughter fulfilled his wishes." Wolverine said.
"Yes, only he could be so twisted enough to do such kind of perversions." Ms. Marvel said.
"Who among you think that it was Magneto who asked Wanda to change reality? Please raise your hands." John interrupted this time from the side. He did not exactly join the meeting.
He had decided to be a watcher of sorts for this whole story, and see if the ending was what he expected.
"Huh. Why do you say this? Is it not Magneto?" Tony asked. They all wanted to decipher this new guy who claimed to have come from a different universe.

Emma actually said telepathically to all that after the settlement of Wanda they would have to ask this new guy about why he was here. She always felt that this guy was dangerous. John still hadn't revealed why he came to this universe.
"I am just asking a normal question. You can raise your hand if you think it's Magneto. If not then don't raise your hand. It's simple as that." John refused to answer the previous question.
Almost everybody raised their hands except for Moon Knight, Emma and Strange. John was surprised to see so much hatred for Magneto. Truth to be said he felt pity for Erik. All he ever wanted was a safe place for mutants.
He understood long ago that mutants would never be seen in good eyes and thus had always been fighting for the mutant-kind. While Charles advocated the use of diplomacy.
John could never say who was right and who was wrong, but Erik being portrayed as the culprit here was totally wrong. He wasn't even responsible for all the things that were going on.
A world where his close friend Xavier didn't exist would be all kinds of wrong for Erik.

The Shadows Become Her
A fantasy progression, a coming of age story, and a tale of revenge... Alvixia "Vix" Altorelli's idyllic childhood is disrupted in one tragic night when the duke's fanatics ransack the Altorelli home and imprison the rest of her family, selling them into slavery across the ocean. Vix soon finds herself fleeing for her life and her freedom, fleeing to the faraway city of Floria on an island ruled by the mysterious Nurass, Prince of Shadows. In Floria, Vix's sharp mind and talent for magic land her a spot at the Perdita Free Collegium, the world's greatest school for spies, saboteurs, swashbucklers, seductresses and, some claim, practitioners of dark magic... and that suits Vix just fine. If the Collegium wants to give Vix the tools she needs to save her family and get her revenge on Duke Orso, she'll take that deal any day of the week and twice on Saintsdays, even if that means making a deal with the Prince of Shadows himself. This is Vix's tale. Author's Note: Now that Writathon 2022 is over, updates will be on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays!

The Ruins of Magincia
They say all things end in time, but the exalted City of Magi would’ve begged to differ. Yet when an attempted coup goes wrong, the city finds itself brought to the very brink of destruction. In the wake of the calamity that left no survivors, the autonomous infrastructure still operating the ruined city seeks to restore what was lost. Luckily for it, the Mana-devoid Universe it awoke in holds an unexpected surprise: a planet full of sentient life forms. All capable—with a little help—to become the next generation of Magi. Back on Earth, Millie McArthur is a pregnant out-of-work mechanic struggling with the prospect of moving back in with her parents after leaving her unfaithful fiancé. That is until she finds herself just one of the hundreds that have been shanghaied by the callous artificial constructs still manning the ruins of Magincia. Now, she must struggle to learn magic, compete for resources, get good 'grades,' and fulfill the seemingly arbitrary requirements for her future job in this broken city. All while keeping herself, and her son, alive. Is the miracle of magic really enough to make up for all the pain? The Ruins of Magincia is a dark fantasy that's heavy on the drama (LitRPG aspects are very light). Chapter lengths can be anywhere from 7k-12k and there's no current release schedule as I'm focusing on wrapping up volume one.
