Chapter 948: Decision

After the Ancient One, the Sorceror Supreme was rumored to be looking for the next generation of Sorcerer Supreme heirs, everyone one of the Sorcerers on Earth was shocked, but apart from being shocked, they all had the same thoughts as Rick.

If they encounter a good seedling, they would certainly recommend it since the Ancient One is indeed looking for an inheritor. It would be a very honorable thing if the young sorcerer they taught could be favored by the Ancient One and eventually become the Sorcerer Supreme.

“Hmm! That’s what I think! Although Jack is a bit out of shape, he still has some talent in magic,” Rick said feeling a little excited that David finally understood what he was trying to say.

In fact, Jack’s talent in magic is not just “some talent” as Rick said. According to the current number of sorcerers on Earth, Jack’s talent should be considered very good. At least, Jack’s talent is much better than that of Rick and David. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to master so much magic in less than two months.

“Speaking of talents, Jack is really good. And he has a mutant ability of body enhancement, which also has many advantages in melee combat. However, he still has too little time to practice magic…” David said and his eyes brightening as he listened to Rick.

The news that Ancient One is looking for talented inheritors spread and it also has no age limit. Therefore, it is possible that many Sorcerers who have practiced magic for many years and are talented will also volunteer to be recommended to Ancient One. Although Jack is good, he is far from those Sorcerers.

“I think that this time Ancient One’s search for an inheritor should not just be about finding someone who is better than anyone else. Otherwise, he would just hold a tournament. Why did he spread the news to us?” Rick disagreed with David’s concerns.

“You’re right, Rick. The inheritance of the Sorcerer Supreme is not about determining who is more powerful in magic. But if Jack wants to participate, we’ll have to bring him back and let him continue practicing!” Hearing Rick’s point David also thinks it makes sense. Still, they had to get Jack back first.

“Absolutely. There are plenty of people who are more talented than Jack, but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t have the opportunity to come back and continue his training. I’ll give him a call right now and tell him to return. Even if he isn’t chosen by the Ancient One as the Sorcerer Supreme, the opportunity to spend some time at the sorcerer’s hermitage in the Himalayas would be invaluable.” Finally, Rick made a decision.

“You’re right, David. If we had been able to spend time at the hermitage, we might be as skilled as Wang and the others now. But we can’t change the past, so all we can do is focus on the present and do our best to improve our abilities. Let’s make sure Jack gets the opportunity to do the same.” Nodding his head, David agreed with Rick’s words.

Then, Rick took out his cell phone, which he rarely used, and tried to call Jack. It was uncertain whether Jack would agree to Rick and David’s plan, given his personality.

Thor has been back in Asgard for several days. He has been eagerly awaiting news from the frontline battlefield and has been keeping an eye out for updates about the Dark Elf.

In the meantime, he has taken care of relocating the Ether Particle and has been spending his time waiting for the next opportunity to visit Earth. Today, he finally received the news he had been waiting for.

“There has been a great victory on the front line! The Asgard army, led by the second prince Loki, successfully defeated the Frost Giants. Laufey, the leader of the Frost Giants, was seriously injured and the rest of the Frost Giants have retreated to their lair.” Thor stood in the palace hall with Frigga and listened to the battle report with a look of triumph on his face.

“Hahaha! I didn’t expect Loki to have some tricks up his sleeve!” Thor exclaimed after the intelligence agent reported the situation on the front line.

Despite their often tumultuous relationship, Thor has always cared deeply for his younger brother Loki and has always been proud of his intelligence and resourcefulness. So when he received the news that Loki was leading the charge on the front lines and had emerged victorious, Thor couldn’t hide his pride and relief.

“You and your father have always underestimated Loki,” Frigga said with a proud smile on her face as she watched Thor laugh. “He has always been capable of great things, and it’s heartening to see him prove it in this way.”

“Haha! I’m sure Loki will be well-rewarded when Father returns from his sleep,” Thor exclaimed, clearly forgetting the events that led to his own exile to Earth and the subsequent attack by the Destroyer. It seemed that Loki’s victory had completely redeemed him in Thor’s eyes.

“I’m sure your Father will be proud of him as well,” Frigga said, her good mood clearly reflected in her words. “Now, let’s go and congratulate Loki on his victory. He deserves all the recognition and praise for his efforts on the front lines.”

“By the way, Mother, Loki fought the Frost Giant on the front lines and should be returning soon, right?” Thor asked, changing the subject after laughing.

Upon hearing Thor’s words, Frigga’s smile faded as she seemed to have anticipated what he was going to say next.

“Yes, now that the front line has been secured, Loki should be returning tomorrow,” Frigga replied, maintaining a composed expression on her face.

“In that case, Mother, I’ll be returning to Earth today,” Thor announced as he stood up from his seat.

Thor’s presence in Asgard had not been particularly helpful, and he might have gone to the front line to support Loki if the war had remained at a stalemate. However, with Loki’s victory and imminent return, Thor was eager to return to the pleasant surroundings of Earth.

Furthermore, Thor feels that he has unfinished business on Earth. For instance, Lin Rui went missing in Asgard and Thor had only informed Tony of this before being sent back to Asgard after the battle. Thor believes it is his responsibility to find Lin Rui, even though he knows he will likely face reprimands from Tony and others upon his return to Earth but at this point, Thor is willing to accept any consequences.

Additionally, Jane Foster is waiting for him on Earth. The events of the past have left room for a potential reunion between Thor and Jane. Thor also misses Ben and the dogs at the pet home where he works. Without Thor’s help, Ben’s workload will surely increase.

“Are you really going to Earth today?” Frigga asked, her eyes fixed on Thor.

“Yes, I am,” Thor replied confidently.

“Very well, I’ll have Heimdall send you back to Earth,” Frigga agreed.
