Coffee shop.

“Aren’t you afraid?”

Wanda, who was sitting opposite him, looked doubtful, her delicate and melancholy face revealing her confusion.Full novel: Marvel: Living the Laid-Back Life — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

“Few ordinary people can remain calm in the face of something like this.”

“You’re the Scarlet Witch, the strongest Avenger.

Why should I be afraid when you’re here?”

Levi asked back.

“I’m the strongest Avenger?

Who said that?”

Wanda was taken aback.

No one had ever said that before.

It seemed like no one in the Avengers was bored enough to talk about something like that, except Tony and Thor, who sometimes argued over such childish and pointless topics.

For example, Thor once wanted to set the voice authentication to recognize him as the strongest Avenger…

Now he’s a big fat man…

“Witches are generally the most powerful people in an organization.”

Levi opened his eyes and casually spouted nonsense, but the part about her being the strongest Avenger was actually true.

Scarlet Witch was indeed the Avengers’ strongest combatant at present, and Thor wasn’t as powerful as her.

That was a fact.

After Wanda studied the Darkhold, she even became one of the most powerful beings in the Nine Realms.

If Wanda from Avengers: Infinity War had encountered Thanos first, how could Avengers: Endgame have needed to reverse the future later?

Thanos was someone even the Big Three couldn’t defeat, yet Wanda alone would have been enough.

“No matter how powerful my abilities are, I can’t even sense his presence…”

Wanda was a little absent-minded as she spoke, unable to stop thinking about her visit to S.W.O.R.D.

yesterday and seeing Vision being dismantled.

She had tried to sense Vision’s presence.

Unfortunately, Vision was like a pile of scrap metal, without the slightest response…

“Wanda, you need to move on.”

Levi had been paying close attention to her emotional fluctuations and noticed that the Chaos Magic within her was still extremely unstable…

However, there was no sign that it was about to erupt.

“Move on?”

Wanda looked at the sunny young man in front of her with a serious expression.

He always gave her a very comfortable feeling and seemed to take her feelings into consideration.

If Levi knew what was going through her mind, he would probably say bluntly, Get out of my hiding place first.

Then we can be good friends.

“Levi, I didn’t expect to meet you so early.

Shouldn’t young people be sleeping at this hour?”

At that moment, the bell above the door rang, followed by a slightly surprised female voice with a friendly tone.

When Levi heard the voice and looked around, he saw the person he least wanted to meet.

Agatha Harkness!

The old witch always wore a considerate smile, and no one could tell that she had killed her own mother with her own hands.

Agatha’s eyes fell on Wanda across the table.

“Is she?”

“Wanda, my tenant and neighbor.”

Seeing this, Levi sneered inwardly.

The old witch had probably started thinking about Wanda from the moment she arrived yesterday.

After all, Chaos Magic was far too attractive to a witch.

That was the power of the Scarlet Witch from legend.

“Hello, Wanda.

I just realized you’re an Avenger, a superhero.”

Agatha couldn’t wait to step forward and take Wanda’s hand.

“Hello.”

The sudden intimacy left Wanda a little flattered.

She awkwardly allowed the other woman to hold her hand, perhaps because of the lack of affection she had experienced since childhood.

She had to admit that this strange new neighbor gave her an inexplicable sense of warmth.

“Aunt Agnes, where’s Josh?”

Levi was a little speechless.

The old witch didn’t need to be so eager.

She had practically written the words “I want Chaos Magic” across her face.

“He stayed at home.

The poisoning incident this morning made him a little worried, so he didn’t dare go out.”

When Agatha mentioned the poisoning incident, an imperceptible glint flashed through her eyes.

That guy had most likely come for Wanda’s Chaos Magic…

Fortunately, she had made contact with Wanda first.

As the saying goes, the one closest to the water gets the moon first.

“It’s just gang violence.

Things like this are common in America.”

Levi spoke intentionally and unintentionally, while at the same time keenly noticing the emotion in Agatha’s eyes.

It seemed the old witch probably knew it hadn’t been an accident, but she hadn’t found any clues.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have shown up here in such a good mood.

“Those brutes didn’t deserve to come back after the Blip.

They should have been gone forever.”

Wanda’s eyes were cold.

She had sacrificed her comrades in exchange for peace.

And yet someone had destroyed that hard-won peace.

“Sometimes you have to admit that there are only a small number of good people in the world, and only those with dark hearts can obtain things that ordinary people can’t.”

Levi took two sips of coffee, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Agatha.

“Aunt Agnes, don’t you think so?” Find the original chapter at novelpin⁠g.com.

“Hmm.”

When Agatha heard this, if she hadn’t been certain that Levi was just an ordinary person, she would have genuinely thought the young man was deliberately using those words to provoke her.

After all, she would do anything to obtain supreme power.

Those dark deeds had even become a disgrace to the witching world…

“I almost forgot, Levi.

I need your help with something.”

Wanda didn’t continue that topic.

Instead, she suddenly remembered something and took a blueprint from her pocket.

“Actually, I have something to do in Westview.

I have an unfinished house on the west side, and I hope you can help me find a construction crew.

You can name whatever price you want.”

Levi took the blueprint.

It contained a simple house plan with a transparent heart drawn in the middle.

Obviously, the owner of the blueprint had polished and revised it countless times by hand.

The heart was almost worn away.

“May I?”

Wanda asked expectantly again.

Originally, she had planned to use magic to build the house.

But after thinking about it, she realized that wouldn’t be appropriate.

It would be far too strange for an ordinary person, and no one wanted to be seen as a freak.

Naturally, Wanda didn’t want that, either.

“No problem.

But are you sure?

As long as I complete the construction, I can ask for any condition I want?”

Levi couldn’t help but smile.

“Definitely.”

Wanda’s mind was relatively simple, and she didn’t catch the meaning behind his words.

She nodded, her beautiful blue eyes clear despite the melancholy within them.

“The two of you can stay.

I’ll leave first.

We can chat when there’s time.”

Agatha had been left completely out of the conversation between the two of them, unable to get a word in, so she had no choice but to find an excuse to leave first.

Wanda had now been found, and she had successfully made contact with her.

There would still be plenty of opportunities in the future.

There was no need to rush.

The Chaos Magic would become hers sooner or later!
