Drift Of The Multiverse: [Marvel] [Resident Evil] [DC] [Bleach] [DB] Chapter 312: Aiming at the Mummy World (BONUS)

After seeing Brickman off, Charles was full of energy for the next phase. He was diligently training the group of young mutants under his guidance. They would beco the first X-n. Brickman had already promised that once the new departnt was established, these individuals would imdiately be granted official status.

In addition, Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters would receive official recognition, becoming a formal institution dedicated to accepting and educating mutant children.

Aside from teaching young people the general knowledge they needed to learn, the school’s main function was to teach mutants how to control their abilities and understand that they must never use their powers to harm society.

Mutants who successfully graduated could not only stay at the school to continue teaching, but they would also have a new path: becoming civil servants with official governnt positions.

This sounded far brighter than a future where their roles were unacknowledged and they could only remain as in-house instructors.

If mutants could genuinely find career advancent opportunities, it was even possible that so parents might eagerly hope their children would awaken the mutant gene.

Watching the busy Charles, Logan—who always observed quietly from a corner—suddenly approached Ethan one day.

"What’s wrong?"

"How long do you plan to stay here?"

Ethan thought for a mont. He didn’t really have any set plans. He simply didn’t want to waste the ti he had. However, judging by Logan’s tone, it seed he had no intention of staying any longer.

"Aren’t you going to spend more ti with your old friends?"

"Strictly speaking, they aren’t my old friends. They’re just people I’ve t recently."

After traveling through so many worlds with Ethan, Logan had long since understood the difference between parallel universes and traveling through one’s own tiline.

Even though this world had many familiar faces, it ultimately wasn’t the world he had lived and fought in. It was just another parallel universe. The people here had their own lives, and his interaction with them was limited to this encounter.

He didn’t know when he’d et them again. As for his counterpart in this world... Logan knew how much hardship that version of himself would face, but he had no desire to help him.

He was immortal anyway. Let him experience the hardships himself. They would all beco valuable mories.

As the two talked, Ada, who had been wandering elsewhere, also walked over. After hearing their conversation, she too expressed her desire to leave.

In this world, she faced many restrictions. She couldn’t move around freely and had to stay at the manor most of the ti. This was incredibly dull, especially for a female spy with a lively personality who loved adventure. This kind of life felt no different from being imprisoned.

"Although we ca here just to deliver a package, wouldn’t it be a bit inappropriate to leave so soon?"

"What’s inappropriate about it? Back then, didn’t you trick onto a ship and then imdiately leave my world?"

Ethan looked at Logan speechlessly. Could that situation really be compared to this one? If they hadn’t left back then, they would’ve had to face the regular army head-on.

While he certainly wouldn’t be concerned about that now, at the ti, even though he had plenty of thods, facing a large army would still have been a headache.

"Neither of you wants to stay any longer?"

"Correct."

They had seen what they needed to see and done what needed to be done. Ethan had also given Charles a lot of suggestions and guided several young mutants on techniques to control their energy. Now, Alex could control his powers well and no longer caused accidental injuries.

If he kept training, it wouldn’t take a year for Alex to beco a powerful mutant and a key mber of the first generation of X-n.

Mystique hadn’t left either, and Magneto hadn’t gone off to start his own faction to oppose Charles. It seed there really wasn’t anything left that needed their attention here.

Staying any longer would simply an using the ti to improve their strength. But Ethan was no longer as obsessed with growing stronger as he had been. Right now, staying was more about enjoying a relatively peaceful life.

"Even if you want to enjoy life, at least pick a slightly better world."

For those used to the fast-paced and convenient life of the future, adjusting to life in the past wasn’t easy.

In both Ada’s and Logan’s eyes, life in 1960 was far from comfortable or convenient. Compared to this, returning to the Goddess of Dawn was much better. At least the scenery on the sea was pleasant.

"The next world we’re heading to is going to be even more backward than this one."

He had long decided that the next world would be the Mummy world. If they arrived during the main storyline, the year would be 1923.

If they accidentally ended up at the beginning of the story, that would be over 3000 BC. That was far beyond re inconvenience or discomfort.

"At least I’ll be able to move around freely."

Ethan had no choice but to agree to Ada and Logan’s request. After saying goodbye to Charles and the others, he would take them away from here.

Since the plan was changed last minute without any prior notice, Charles was quite surprised when he heard they were leaving.

"You’re leaving?"

"There’s nothing left to do. What needed to be delivered has been delivered, and I’ve helped as much as I could. The rest is up to you."

Erik, who had been quietly listening nearby, said nothing. He usually kept to himself and rarely spoke with people he wasn’t familiar with. Most of the ti, he wore a cold expression. Giving Ethan a smile was already a rare show of closeness.

This only happened because Ethan had fully supported his quest for revenge and had genuinely guided him.

As for Charles, his feelings toward Ethan were more complicated.

If it were purely about personal relationships, perhaps Ethan’s connection with Erik was deeper than with Charles. However, after gaining the mories of the older Charles, he couldn’t view Ethan from a purely personal or subjective standpoint.

Considering all the help Ethan had offered, Charles really wanted to host him properly. He felt that he had been too busy lately and had neglected this new friend.

"It’s not like I won’t co back. You should be much less busy the next ti I visit."

By then, Charles’s school for gifted youngsters should be running smoothly. If his cooperation with Brickman went well, the mutant situation wouldn’t be as dire as it once was, and the X-n should have gained so recognition. Charles would finally have ti to focus on what he truly cared about—educating the next generation of mutants.

"Also, seize the opportunities you’re supposed to. Don’t end up regretting missed chances later."

This was Ethan’s final advice. Professor Charles didn’t have much focus on romance, or rather, parts of his romantic life were completely skipped. The only detail was the budding feelings between him and Moira. Unfortunately, for the sake of the future of ’mutants’ and Moira’s own career, he personally let go of the woman he loved.

Now, without those complicated factors, after helping arrange the eting between Brickman and Charles, Moira would almost certainly leave the CIA and beco the head of one of the new departnts initiated by Brickman. She would primarily serve as the liaison between humans and mutants, ensuring there was always a communication bridge between the two sides.

After all, Brickman couldn’t personally deal with every minor issue. Having a familiar and trusted diator was crucial.

Brickman had clearly thought this through. As a human, Moira had good relationships with mutants, and her ambiguous relationship with Charles made her an ideal candidate for such a role.

This woman might have a biased stance, but Brickman didn’t care. At least during the initial stage of cooperation, he could pretend not to notice.

Without job-related interference, maybe Charles and Moira would really end up together? Ethan was quite curious if, the next ti he visited, he would see them holding a baby Charles.

As for Magneto... Ethan had no reason to worry about his romantic life. After all, in the original story, the man had several children.

Ethan’s departure caught the attention of all the mutants. The younger ones wanted to throw a farewell party, but Ethan imdiately refused.

Are you kidding? If he agreed to a farewell party, he’d never be able to leave. Everyone would drink and pass out, then rest for a few days, recover, throw another party, and repeat endlessly?

At the sa ti, word of his departure also reached Brickman. The senator ca over in person.

Nominally, he ca to see off a friend from another universe. But in truth, he ca to see how Ethan would leave. He wanted to confirm whether Ethan’s previous claims were true.

Ethan didn’t disappoint. He deliberately maximized the visual and auditory effects of the teleportation circle, once again stunning the senator and deepening his belief in Ethan’s words.

As the dazzling light faded, Brickman chatted with Charles for a while before leaving the manor. Afterward, he imdiately summoned the scientists he had assembled and asked for their observation results.

The scientists couldn’t offer a definitive conclusion. Other than presenting large amounts of data, they couldn’t confirm whether Ethan had actually left the world.

However, the various unprecedented readings already spoke volus. During this ti, they had also gathered a lot of intel, especially the fact that a man nad Logan had appeared in two different places at once. That further convinced Brickman of the truth behind the parallel universe theory.

Ethan could more or less guess Brickman’s thoughts. But by then, he had already left the matter of this world’s mutants behind. After returning to the Aurora, he planned to rest for a while before continuing his journey through the worlds.

The next destination, of course, was the Mummy world, which he had been thinking about for a long ti.
