After the Battle of New York, the world did not return to peace as expected. In fact, even the original Battle of New York took about a year or two to slowly recover from, and this time, the impact on ordinary people's minds was probably even more intense than in the original! After all, Noah had ruthlessly shattered their long-held perceptions, making them doubt themselves. If it were just a group of aliens, it would be fine, but when mages and dragons all appeared, the magnitude of such an impact can be imagined!
Moreover, the damage to Manhattan this time was much greater than in the original!
In the original, Manhattan only had some collapsed buildings, though a lot of people died in that battle. This time, thanks to Noah's preparations, there were no civilian casualties, but the crucial problem was that under the combined rampage of mages and aliens, the entire island of Manhattan was almost sinking! The high-ranking American officials, upon learning of this situation, were truly furious.
If they couldn't find them, and even if they did, they couldn't beat them, they would have really wanted to settle scores with those mages!
Noah didn't care about this situation at all. After all, Noah's home base wasn't in New York Manhattan, and besides, it wasn't completely destroyed the New York Sanctum was still intact, wasn't it? It's just that ordinary people couldn't see this, and with the impressive black technology in this world, Noah didn't think it was truly destroyed.
"Reconstruction is time-consuming, laborious, and expensive, but does that have anything to do with me?"
Standing in front of the mirror, looking at himself, Noah suddenly uttered this sentence. Then, he suddenly smiled at the mirror, then turned and walked out. Tonight, Noah had a party to attend.
This party was hosted by Noah himself, and he had invited almost all the Ministers of Magic from various countries, as well as the mages who participated in this battle. Plus Fury and others who knew Noah, and the Thor brothers who had not yet left Earth.
It could be said that the number of attendees at this party was quite large, and the people involved were quite special. So Noah had to go to Kamar-Taj to ask for instructions from the Ancient One. However, as soon as he arrived at Kamar-Taj, he learned that the Ancient One seemed to have gone into seclusion.
The word "seclusion" made Noah's head ache a little.
What made Noah even more helpless was that the Ancient One seemed to be returning to her old ways. This made Noah feel that he needed to speed up his pace no, Noah felt that he needed his system to speed up. The domain magic, that thing, had to have a necessary conclusion before it could continue. With everything being just Noah's guess, the Ancient One probably wouldn't just wait, would she?
As for the invitation to this banquet, although Noah didn't see the Ancient One, he did see Mordo. This guy's face was grim, looking like he had just argued with someone, which made Noah feel very strange, because Mordo's interpersonal relationships in Kamar-Taj were quite good.
"What's wrong, Mordo?" Noah, not understanding the situation, naturally walked up and asked. Incidentally,
this guy was also one of Noah's invited guests.
"Don't even mention it, that Kaecilius guy is getting
worse and worse," Mordo shook his head.
"That guy got into an argument with the librarian because he wanted to read some forbidden books and was refused."
So that's how it is!
Noah nodded. It seemed that Kaecilius was indeed becoming more and more restless. Noah felt it was necessary to find someone to keep an eye on Kaecilius.
Otherwise, with his strength far exceeding the original story, reaching the seventh tier, his actions might truly be unpredictable.
"By the way, why are you here? Looking for the teacher?"
Mordo vented his anger, then looked at Noah strangely.
"No need, the teacher has gone into seclusion. She said that if there's anything at Kamar-Taj, she'll leave it to me. If I find it difficult to handle, I should come to you."
"Is that so?" Noah nodded. "Then, in seven hours, take the other nine people who participated in the Battle of New York with you to the London Sanctum. I need to host a banquet."
"That's it?" Mordo tilted his head. "Why didn't you just call me?"
"First, phone calls are expensive, especially international ones. Second, inviting you in person shows more sincerity, doesn't it? Lastly, how would I know the teacher made such arrangements?"
"To put it bluntly, you're a Scrooge-type person, I understand."
After settling things with Mordo and the others, Noah returned directly to the London Sanctum to prepare.
Actually, such preparations were incredibly simple for Noah. It was merely about compressing the space within the Sanctum using spatial technology to create a larger space. As for the food and drinks needed for the party, Noah had already contacted Fury and the others.
Although SHIELD faced disintegration after Hydra was exposed, and their budget was terribly low back then, that wasn't the case now. SHIELD was very rich now; otherwise, where would they have gotten the money to build three Helicarriers?
Furthermore, Fury wouldn't refuse an invitation from a mage. In fact, Noah thought that if Fury reported this, he would get even more funding! "Of course, by then, my entire Sanctum will probably be filled with surveillance cameras. Hmph, let them watch. I've already shown it once, so I'm not afraid to show it a second time."
After taking care of everything that needed to be handled, Noah changed into a long, trench-coat-like robe, then looked at himself in the mirror with a touch of swagger, and then walked out. It was already around eight in the evening, and almost all the mages had arrived at the Sanctum. As the host, Noah naturally couldn't neglect them.
As Noah appeared, the somewhat noisy Sanctum immediately quieted down. Noah's performance in the Battle of New York a week ago had completely won over all the mages present, and they had probably already decided that Noah was the next Sorcerer Supreme.
"It's a pleasure to have you all here." Seeing how cooperative all the mages were, Noah smiled slightly, happy at the same time. "I won't waste any more time here. Today's theme is to celebrate our victory over the invading aliens a week ago, and also to commemorate our fallen comrades."
The number of mages who died in the Battle of New York was very small, only a handful. But commemorating and remembering such things was absolutely never wrong. As expected, when Noah said this, a cheer immediately erupted.
"This guy has no talent for speeches at all." Loki and Thor were hiding in a corner, watching Noah, who was standing at the forefront and attracting everyone's attention. Loki couldn't help but smile, seemingly mocking Noah.
"Indeed, but what he said was completely correct." Thor glanced at his brother. He didn't care what Loki's attitude was; he only hoped Loki wouldn't cause trouble.
In fact, Loki had no intention of causing trouble; he was already scared enough by this group of mages.
Meanwhile, Fury and the others were somewhat reserved, hiding in another corner. As ordinary people invited to this place, it was impossible for them not to be nervous.
Perhaps the only one who wasn't so nervous was Banner, because he had been recognized by some mages before Noah arrived, and they even thought Banner was actually a mutant and treated him well. This made Banner happy but also a little confused. Later, through Fury, Banner finally understood what was going on. This gave Banner a good impression of these mages; in a sense, he was also a mutant, and the mages' attitude towards mutants made Banner very envious.
"Then, I declare the banquet open!" Once the mages had cheered enough, Noah directly announced the start of the banquet. Immediately, the entire Sanctum resonated with music very characteristic of the local magical world, played and performed by a magical singing group.
Amidst such soft and beautiful music, the banquet officially began.
Noah slowly walked into the center of the hall, and immediately he was surrounded by Ministers of Magic from various countries. Noah was helpless about this, but he had already prepared himself mentally. The higher one stands, the more attention one receives, and of course, the more conveniences Noah gained. Facing such a situation, Noah was already well-versed. After politely and courteously dealing with these Ministers of Magic, Noah surveyed the scene.
Ms Haifin was chatting with a group of female mages, and Lily was with Ms Haifin, though she seemed a bit unhappy. Noah, of course, knew why; it was mainly because she hadn't participated in the Battle of New York this time.
However, Noah didn't plan to comfort her or anything; anyway, Noah planned to let her participate in future events. As Snape's student, and Lily being his apprentice, Noah naturally wanted to protect her. Of course, if the situation was truly dire and irreversible, Noah wouldn't refuse her from going to battle.
Shaking his head slightly, Noah quickly noticed that Thor and Loki had somehow joined Tony and Steve. Noah found this amusing. Noah's old classmates, however, were more relaxed; Evan and the others were either sitting together chatting or roaming around the entire venue.
These guys had indeed visited his Sanctum quite often, and they knew the Sanctum's interior much better than other mages. However, none of them were Noah's target. Before long, Noah found the person he was looking for. She was standing alone by the window, looking outside, lost in thought.
