American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

New York, a holy place.

Felicity, who had turned into a puppet cat, hid in the corner, secretly watching a group of children suddenly appearing.

"Pietro, go and tell everyone not to run around or touch things randomly."

"That gentleman saved us, we shouldn't cause him trouble."

...

"Did everyone hear that? Don't run around, we'll wait for that gentleman here."

"Little Jenny, put down the things."

...

Watching this group of young but sensible children, Felicity was puzzled.

Meow?

Where did these children come from?

Why do they all have scars? Have they been abused?

While Felicity was observing, suddenly, she felt a tightness around her waist, and then her body was lifted into the air.

"Wow, there's a puppet cat here!"

Wanda discovered Felicity hiding in the corner and picked her up.

"Come here, Pietro."

"Doesn't this look like the puppet cat our mother used to raise when we were young?"

Wanda excitedly called Pietro over.

"Wanda, you just said not to touch things randomly."

Pietro rolled his eyes.

But when he came over and saw this snow-white puppet cat, he also fell into memories.

Because what Wanda said was right.

This puppet cat does resemble the one our family used to have when we were young.

Wanda and Pietro were happy back then, with parents and that little cat, until a missile produced by Stark Industries took everything away.

"Meow, meow, meow!"

Felicity definitely didn't know about their tragic experience.

As a normal human, she didn't like being held in someone's hands and unable to break free.

"It seems like she doesn't like me holding her like this."

Sensitive to emotions, Wanda noticed this and reluctantly put Felicity on the ground.

"She definitely doesn't like it."

"Because she's not a cat at all."

At this moment, Chu Xiu's voice came from behind.

After dealing with Baron Strucker, he immediately returned to the holy place in New York.

"Huh?"

"Not a cat?"

Wanda turned around in surprise.

When she saw that it was Chu Xiu, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Without the blood stains on his face, Wanda finally saw Chu Xiu's appearance, young and handsome.

Thinking of the "uncle" she had called before.

Wanda blushed slightly.

"Sorry~"

"?"

Chu Xiu was puzzled.

What does this little girl mean by suddenly apologizing?

"Not a cat, is she a human then?"

Silver-haired Pietro asked.

"Bingo!"

Chu Xiu snapped his fingers.

He took out the "Handy Guide to Practical Magic for Beginners" from his belt and pretended to read it.

"Well, cut off the cursed person's nose, drill with an amethyst... "

"Then take a caterpillar and put it in the cursed person's ear, let the caterpillar crawl in..."

As Chu Xiu recited one by one.

Felicity, who had turned into a puppet cat, was already scared and dared not move.

With two round blue eyes, she looked at Chu Xiu in horror, tears the size of beans streaming down.

"Now you're scared, huh? Will you dare to touch things randomly in the future?"

"Meow, meow, meow!"

The puppet cat shook its head frantically.

Seeing this, Chu Xiu took out a card and drew an exorcism pattern on it, then threw it onto the puppet cat.

The Demon Expelling Encyclopedia not only has the ability to banish demons from other dimensions, but also easily dispels curses.

A flash of white light was seen.

The puppet cat instantly transformed back into Felicia, wearing a maid outfit.

However, she maintained the posture of a cat, walking on all fours like a cat.

"Meow?"

"Ahem, I mean, I'm going to clean up!"

Realizing that she almost meowed again, Felicia felt extremely embarrassed and just wanted to find a hole to hide in.

After saying that, she quickly slipped away.

"..."

Wanda was shocked by the scene in front of her.

Just turning eighteen, her worldview had not yet fully formed, but it had already collapsed and shattered.

"She, she, she..."

She repeated the word "she" three times in a row.

Wanda couldn't even finish her sentence.

"It's just a small curse..."

Chu Xiu suddenly realized.

These kids probably didn't know how long they had been imprisoned by HYDRA and were likely unaware of the outside world.

They might not even know about the magic that appeared in the second Battle of New York, let alone the Chitauri invasion.

"Do you have anywhere to go?"

Chu Xiu asked.

Wanda shook her head after hearing the question.

Most of the other children who heard the question also shook their heads.

"Most of them are homeless orphans."

Pietro said in a low voice.

Sokovia was in the midst of a civil war, and many families were torn apart. HYDRA took advantage of this opportunity to bring in so many orphans for experiments.

"Alright, I think I can find a place for them."

After Chu Xiu finished speaking, he was about to call Phil Coulson.

Suddenly, he found his own behavior amusing.

S.H.I.E.L.D had become SNAKE SHIELD.

If he sent these children over now, it would be no different from returning them to HYDRA.

"Do you want to learn magic?"

Suddenly, Chu Xiu asked.

These children were chosen by HYDRA from the crowd, so they must have some special abilities to some extent.

For example, the two siblings, Wanda and Pietro,

were enough to prove that HYDRA had a good eye.

"Magic?"

"Is it the method you just used?"

"We're willing!"

When they heard that they could learn magic, not a single child refused.

Even Wanda felt a longing in her heart.

After all, she and Pietro had voluntarily joined HYDRA's experiments in order to gain extraordinary powers.

And now...

The opportunity was right in front of them.

However, Wanda hesitated.

"Sir?"

"Just call me Chu Xiu."

"Chu Xiu, can I stay by your side?"

Wanda gathered her courage and asked.

Pietro, who was standing beside her, was a little surprised, but seeing that his sister had already made her decision, he also walked over.

"..."

Chu Xiu turned to look at Wanda.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly realized something, "Your ability has already been activated!?"

"Yeah."

Wanda nodded.

Then, a scarlet energy appeared in the palm of her hand.
