177. The Enchantress.
177. The Enchantress.
The Enchantress, whose real name is Amora Lorelei, is a powerful sorceress from Asgard, the celestial palace. Not only does she possess strength and speed that far exceed human limits, but she also has an extraordinarily long lifespan, which has allowed her to maintain her incredibly seductive beauty to this day.
Although she is a sorceress, her hand-to-hand combat skills are by no means weak. She once fought Thor, the God of Thunder, to a standstill using her martial arts skills. However, as a sorceress, Lorelei's favorite pastime is casting powerful magic.
As the Enchantress, her signature move is her formidable enchantment magic. She frequently uses her beauty combined with her magic to control men, a power so strong that many incredibly powerful heroes have fallen into her trap.
"So many years have passed. Ever since those heroes were wiped out, I haven't fought a real hero in a long time. But now, by Odin, darling, you're simply the best gift the gods could have given me."
Lorelei's voice was as soft as silk, like the song of a siren, compelling anyone who heard it to succumb to pure desire and longing.
"What a coincidence. I feel the same way. You can't imagine how happy I was when I found you. Ever since those dimensional lords and Earth's sanctum were banished to another world, I've been desperately searching for a source of powerful energy."
Alex smiled slightly, not believing that Lorelei could escape from his grasp.
'Remind me, Miss Minutes, how much power can this lovely lady contribute to the timepad?'
[At least 4%. She holds significant primordial energy. As one of the last remaining Asgardians, the Einherjar energy within her is quite impressive.]
The Miss Minutes's response made Alex's smile even more apparent, and his intense gaze caused Lorelei to shiver slightly. Lorelei didn't understand. Every man who looked at her had that same intense, lascivious gaze, but for some reason, the look in this sorcerer's eyes filled her with a strange fear. But soon, the unnatural expression on Lorelei's face disappeared as she regained her composure. She flashed an alluring smile and gave Alex a flirtatious wink.
"Sweet little thing, I think you could put on quite a show for me. Let me see, my dear, just how strong your magic really is."
As she spoke, Lorelei subtly nodded her head toward Alex's teammates, clearly hinting at her intentions.
As Lorelei spoke, Alex could distinctly feel his mind being invaded, and this invasion wasn't coming from outside, but from within his own body. It was as if something inside him had ignited violently under the influence of Lorelei's words, a searing lust surging straight to his mind, trying to overwhelm his consciousness. A flash of green light appeared in Alex's eyes, and his dark pupils were enveloped in green.
"Alright, let me show you."
In the next moment, Alex gripped his black umbrella tightly and slashed out with it. Instantly, an almost imperceptible invisible air current tore through the sky, slicing toward Lorelei's head.
Lorelei's pupils contracted as she seemed to realize that Alex wasn't affected by her enchantment magic at all. But as the blade of wind approached, there wasn't much time for her to think. She didn't have time to ponder and had to roll away clumsily to dodge the strike.
"The Wind of Calamity!?" Lorelei, who was well-versed in various forms of black magic, immediately recognized the spell Alex had used. She looked up in disbelief, staring blankly at the young sorcerer. "Impossible! No one can resist my enchantment magic!"
"You underestimate me, Lorelei. Yes, I have desires, but I am not a slave to them," Alex spun his black umbrella playfully, mocking Lorelei's disheveled state.
"That's impossible... The power of the dimensional lords should have been banished by reality itself. Even Mephisto cannot intervene in this world. How did you acquire the energy to cast such powerful magic!?"
Lorelei's seductive face was filled with disbelief. She had participated in that legendary battle, and as one of the main villains on the magical side, no one understood the magical energies of this world better than she did.
Since the fall of the Sanctum Sanctorum on Earth, all sorts of magical artifacts had gone mad. After the dimensional lords were exiled by the combined forces of the villains, the only remaining sources of magical power on Earth were the artifacts that inherently contained energy. But the problem was that those artifacts had been destroyed by the Red Skull, and the remaining ones were in the hands of Doctor Doom. No matter how much she thought about it, Lorelei couldn't figure out how Alex had found a way to cast magic.
You see, in this post-apocalyptic world, it was challenging enough for Lorelei to cast spells. If she couldn't draw on the residual energy of Asgard, she wouldn't be able to perform magic, let alone maintain her prolonged life and beauty.
"You're right; casting magic in this world is no easy feat. But fortunately, I know quite a few tricks. If I'm willing to put in the time, I can find some ways to unleash my magic."
Hearing this, Lorelei bit her lip and a frosty expression appeared on her face, but at the same time, there was a hint of possessiveness in her eyes as she looked at Alex. Although she didn't know where this dark sorcerer's magical power came from, if she could control him, she might eventually uncover his secrets. Moreover, if she could truly harness that power, perhaps she could even overthrow the Red Skull and Doctor Doom, those two old fools, and become the true queen of Midgard!
As these thoughts crossed her mind, Lorelei's gaze grew increasingly fervent. She suddenly stood up, and intense dark green light burst from her hands. Although both Lorelei's and Alex's magic were green, the energy they exuded gave off completely different feelings.
Alex's energy was filled with death and darkness, invoking a deep-seated fear within the soul. Pietro once described Alex's magical energy as "unlike any other black magic, it's an unknown force that announces death."
In contrast, Lorelei's magic, with its flickering glow, was intertwined with countless desires and emotions. Rather than a destructive force, it was a form of sorcery that targeted the spiritual world.
"Let's see if you can excite me more, darling~"
As Lorelei unleashed countless green magical missiles that rained down on Alex like a celestial shower, he deftly flipped his arm, and in an instant, the gray air current of the Wind of Calamity enveloped his black umbrella.
"Don't worry; you won't be disappointed."
