"The reality is not what you imagine. Even the God of Stories only has a limited number of world lines to control. In our part of the World Tree, there is no timeline where Ultron destroys the world," Loki explained the reason in more detail. The problem was not their world tree, but another world tree. But everyone's god of stories was a Loki, so they asked for help from this tree.
Kurohane nodded, but then looked at Loki in confusion. "I get it, but what does this have to do with you?"
"There are not many ways for two trees to influence each other. Currently, there are only two. Besides the unique fruit on the teleportation tree, there are only other individuals of the God of Stories who can be teleported to the past. This is our different versions of Loki."
"What's the result?"
"The result is, even after seventeen Lokis were teleported there, the World Tree there still collapsed." Loki sighed helplessly. The Lokis with stronger combat abilities were teleported there. The ones left at the Time Variance Authority were all old, weak, sick, or had unstable personalities like him. But the situation didn't improve, and not a single Loki who was teleported back returned.
Kurohane finally understood why The Ancient One was so serious. The collapse of a world tree meant the destruction of countless parallel universes. It might even affect the original world tree here, which would be a disaster for all universes. And it was very difficult to solve this problem. The plot of the 2015 Secret Wars was never made into a movie. It was a major event in the comics that involved almost all the Marvel superheroes. There were more than a dozen people as strong as Thanos, and also completely unreasonable madmen like The Cartographer, as well as the planet eater, Uncle Tun, who was always in the background.
Kurohane was truly helpless and gently patted Loki on the shoulder. "I'll go find the God of Stories and see if there's any other solution."
"Good."
"If you have nothing to do, just go back to Earth, you're just wasting time if you go there."
Loki was shocked. "What you're saying is hurtful!" But Kurohane had already opened a portal, grabbed his collar, and threw him into the portal. Kurohane also greeted Wanda, The Ancient One, and the others on the other side, then closed the portal.
Seeing Loki lying on the floor, The Ancient One and the other two were shocked, especially Sylvie, who covered her eyes in shame. Although his divine power was sealed, being thrown away like trash would embarrass all of Asgard! Wanda was relieved. She lowered her head and smiled at the thick magic book in front of her that radiated a terrifying dark power. "The Darkhold."
The Ancient One helped Wanda grab a few good items. For her, power was not good or bad, it depended on the user. Kurohane was the Dimension Lord of the Dark Dimension, and his life continued because of dark energy. So The Ancient One just found the Darkhold. If someone had to master the power of the Darkhold sooner or later, why not Wanda, one of their own? In this way, Wanda would become a multiverse-level powerhouse in the future, which was not a bad thing. Kurohane saw the Darkhold, but he didn't care. As long as Wanda was happy, that was enough!
When Kurohane met Loki, the God of Stories, he lost his usual calm. His face was filled with anxiety.
"Come on! Don't put on a sad face and tell me the truth." Kurohane stood in front of the God of Stories with his arms crossed, surrounded by dense timelines that formed a gigantic World Tree. He was now at the End of Time, under the protection of the World Tree, his whole body bathed in a lush green light. "If you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to use Loki's mouth to say those things to me. I actually owe you a favor. Let me guess, your target from the start was me, wasn't it?"
"Yes, in the timeline and parallel universes I control, you are the only one who can do this," Loki, the God of Stories, smiled bitterly. "I never thought I could hide it from you. No one has ever been able to be a Master of Two Dimensions at the same time. Of course, this is also because you are still struggling. Otherwise, you can only merge two dimensions. Your power is enough to make you the strongest among all Dimension Lords."
"Is this the time to flatter me? Just get to the point, what do you want me to do?" Kurohane searched in his Space Ring, but he couldn't find a drink. Using magic in the Time Variance Authority consumed too much energy. It wasn't worth it just for a drink! "Let me explain first, I want to go there and play, but you have to tell me how to do it. And after I go there, how do I come back? That's it."
"I will be responsible for sending you there. After you finish your mission, the God of Stories there will be responsible for sending you back. Let him teach you how. I don't have the final say here. If you're willing to go... I can give you a drawer of Infinity Stones, how's that?" Loki, the God of Stories, looked at Kurohane sincerely. He had nothing good to offer now. The only thing left was the Infinity Stones in the Time Variance Authority, which were so numerous that they served as table legs.
"It's not complicated, I'll take it." Kurohane nodded with satisfaction. A drawer full of Infinity Stones would be great for a collection, but he still needed something else. "I also want to order other equipment, like an Adamantium sword and a Vibranium shield..."
"Everything is in the warehouse, just take whatever you want!"
