"Are you Alaric!?"
Amora looked at Alaric in surprise and couldn't help but exclaim.
She really didn't expect to see her target in such a situation.
Too sudden!
Moreover, the magical power Alaric displayed slightly frightened her!
Amora herself was a powerful sorceress, but magic like this, directly opening teleportation from thousands of miles away in midair, was something even she couldn't perform!
Especially because she had been brought here without even seeing anyone!
"Who are you?"
Alaric looked at Amora, puzzled.
Was she the one who had been looking for him earlier?
But Alaric was sure he had never seen her before.
After all, Alaric only watched movies and rarely watched Marvel spin-offs like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
That's why he didn't know about Amora.
"My name is Amora, I come from Asgard, and I am your lover~"
Amora stood up, gathered herself, and then, as Loki had ordered, tried to control Alaric.
As long as she controlled Alaric, Loki believed that no one would be able to stop his plan anymore!
Because Iron Man Tony, Thor, and many S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had already become his informants.
"Lover?"
Alaric's brows furrowed sharply; he felt something was off.
When he heard Amora's voice, he clearly sensed a force trying to seduce him, to control him!
In addition, from Amora radiated an immensely deadly allure for men, capable of awakening desires in a man's heart and amplifying them.
Besides that, Alaric sensed traces of magic.
So, this woman was trying to seduce him with magic?
If it had been before, she might have had a chance to succeed, but now Alaric's spiritual power was as vast as the sea, and on top of that, he had attained cosmic awareness.
You can control other people, control gods from Asgard, but can you control the universe? Control a dimensional demon?
If you were really that powerful, Alaric thought, you'd have been invincible long ago.
And Clea, on the side, when she heard this woman, who introduced herself as Amora, call herself Alaric's lover, suddenly felt upset.
Clea looked at Amora distrustfully as she slowly approached Alaric, and just as she was thinking whether to intervene, she saw Amora suddenly get blasted backward with a loud crash.
Alaric calmly looked at Amora, who had been thrown back by his power, activated mental magic, and began reading her memories.
"A seductress-witch from Asgard… Loki's plan? You really are something, Loki."
Alaric not only saw Amora's past from her memories but also the moment Loki freed her from the prison in Asgard.
He even learned that Tony, Thor, Coulson, and many S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were all under Amora's control!
That made Alaric rejoice: luckily, he had just found Amora and pulled her here, otherwise, at this rate, the entire Avengers would probably have been destroyed!
S.H.I.E.L.D. would have been finished!
Because Amora's enchantment spell was too powerful, just speaking was enough to capture a man's heart with her voice and make him willingly submit; ordinary people truly couldn't resist it.
Even Thor couldn't avoid it.
Especially since Amora's control didn't affect the target's behavior pattern, which made it impossible even for Fury, the king of spies, to notice anything suspicious.
Luckily, Alaric was no longer who he was yesterday.
Now he was the most powerful being in this universe!
Of course, not counting those on higher-dimensional levels and certain monstrous entities.
"Alaric? What's going on?"
Clea stopped for a moment, then looked at Alaric in confusion, not understanding why he had suddenly attacked.
"She tried to control me a few moments ago."
"To control you?! This woman really isn't a good person!!"
Clea glared angrily at Amora, who was knocked to the floor.
"Huh? You knew she wasn't a good person and didn't say anything?"
Alaric glanced at her too; if she already had information, she should share it in advance!
If he didn't have enough strength to block her magic, he'd be finished, did she realize that!?
"I just realized it now…" Clea lowered her head.
"You'd definitely get along perfectly with Gwen."
Alaric sighed helplessly; he felt Clea had a really short fuse.
"Who's Gwen?" Clea asked curiously, lifting her head.
"A sincere and sweet high school girl, like you."
Alaric rolled his eyes, almost directly saying an airhead.
Gwen: ???
"Oh… it's finally over."
Amora painfully held her head and stood up.
Oh, God!
That disgusting feeling of being controlled was finally gone!
Amora screamed with joy inside!
These past days, her own consciousness had been trapped deep in her mind, forced to watch someone else manipulate her body, she had been furious!
But she couldn't do anything because she couldn't free herself from Loki's control and didn't even know what exactly that scepter was, only that it could completely subjugate her!
Only now, thanks to Alaric's sudden attack, her secondary consciousness was shattered by Alaric's power, and Amora managed to return to her body.
But the result was that she felt utterly exhausted, and her head was pounding!
"Thank you this time, Alaric!"
Amora rubbed her head, stood up, and thanked Alaric.
Thankfully, Alaric hadn't killed her, otherwise, she would already be a corpse.
After seeing how powerful Alaric was, Amora had no idea what Loki was thinking, sending her to deal with Alaric, wasn't that just sending her to her death!?
Loki, you idiot!!
Amora was furious.
"Huh? What's with her now?"
Clea looked at Amora, who was behaving completely differently, in confusion.
"She was under control earlier and used against me," Alaric explained.
"That's right, Loki controlled me with some kind of scepter, I don't know what kind, but he forced me to follow his commands," Amora also explained.
"That's the Mind Scepter," said Alaric.
"Mind Scepter? How have I never heard of such a thing?" Amora frowned, trying to recall.
"You know about the Mind Stone?"
"Infinity Stones!?" Amora exclaimed.
"So the gem on that scepter is the Mind Stone, one of the Infinity Stones!? No wonder it's so powerful!"
Now everything was clear to Amora.
As an Asgardian witch who had lived for more than two thousand years, she had heard stories about the Infinity Stones.
At that moment, she felt that her defeat was completely justified.
The Mind Stone truly lived up to its reputation, it was terrifying!!
Amora was genuinely frightened!
She never wanted to experience that feeling again!!
"Who's this Loki you're talking about? And what are these Mind Stones, Infinity Stones?"
Clea didn't understand any of it.
"Don't meddle in grown-up matters, kid."
