Chapter 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. Vissit for updates
"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.
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.
