While White went to prepare to conquer the Myriad Dimensions, Michael played with Little Nina for a while longer... When Little Nina, with a hint of worry in her voice, said she missed her father, Michael then waved his hand and summoned Erik Lehnsherr, whose abilities were sealed and who had been abandoned by the darkened Charles, and who was no longer well-regarded in the Mutant faction. He handed him over to Little Nina and her mother.
Without his Mutant abilities, even though Erik Lehnsherr was once revered as Magneto, and even though he was one of the former Mutant leaders, in the Mutant faction, which was now strong and well-equipped under the leadership of the darkened Charles and with the help of Apocalypse, the former Magneto had become an unregarded existence, even scorned by those... lesser Mutants.
Magneto could not endure such a blow, nor could he accept the strange transformation of his lifelong best friend. Without his Mutant abilities, Magneto was heartbroken and bewildered in the Mutant faction.
The scene was so similar to when Raven was struck by the Leech serum and he heartlessly abandoned her. Watching the Mutants recruited by the darkened Charles and Apocalypse being replaced batch after batch due to casualties, and watching Earth's environment become increasingly harsh.
Humans being exposed to radiation indeed increased the possibility of mutating into Mutants, but that was under circumstances where the radiation was within a controllable range.
But now, let alone newly awakened Mutants, even the veteran Mutants were beginning to die in large numbers as the Mutant faction and Human Society continuously launched nuclear attacks against each other.
The constant nuclear explosions, all over the world, filled the air and water with varying concentrations of nuclear radiation. And this... nuclear radiation, instead of providing a steady stream of new Mutant reinforcements for the Mutant faction, began to kill most Mutants who couldn't withstand it.
Of course, Human Society wasn't doing much better.
Even ordinary people, who are less tolerant of radiation than Mutants, were extensively radiated, mutated, and died.
Magneto suddenly realized that his lifelong cause, dedicated to the survival of Mutants, was so foolish.
Being suddenly summoned by Michael was like being rescued from a dire situation.
Erik Lehnsherr suddenly discovered that as long as his family was safe and sound, even if they lived in a remote corner, it would be extremely blissful.
Having witnessed the tragedy on Earth, Magneto readily accepted the fact that his family was far away from Earth.
Or it could be said that Magneto subconsciously escaped from everything on Earth.
The current Magneto is no longer Magneto; Erik Lehnsherr is just an ordinary person who only wants his family to be together, safe, harmonious, and happy… "How are you?"
"Have you recovered your senses now?"
Holding a glass of wine, standing by the battleship's porthole, and looking at the missiles flying everywhere on Earth, Michael asked Jean Grey, who was standing silently beside him.
After summoning Magneto to the spaceship, Michael let Little Nina's family reunite and express their longing for each other; he had no intention of participating.
Ultimately, Michael only did it for Little Nina's sake; if not for Little Nina, Michael wouldn't even bother to glance at Magneto.
Magneto, who controls one of the four great forces of the Universe, magnetism, is very strong and could crush him with a single finger! However, the darkened Jean Grey, for some unknown reason, did not leave with Little Nina and the others; instead, she followed closely behind Michael.
"I want my power back."
"You can make me do anything!"
Jean Grey did not answer Michael's question but calmly stated her demand and made a promise.
"Anything?"
Michael's eyes left the porthole; he turned his head and scrutinized Jean Grey, who was standing ramrod straight, with a calm expression but staring directly at him. His gaze swept over the Dark Phoenix, whose figure was even more sensual after being darkened, and he asked with deep meaning.
"Yes!"
"Anything!"
"As long as you can unseal me, anything is fine!"
Jean Grey's expression showed no emotional change to Michael's gaze, and even her voice was as calm as before.
