Chapter 19: Sorcerer Supreme (2)

"Do I know you? And how do you know me? I don't remember ever seeing you. Who are you?" Master Drumm asked John with some doubt.

"Of course I know you Master Drumm, protector of New York Sanctum. I am John Jameson. I am here to ask an audience from the ancient one. " John replied.

"John Jameson? Now I remember. Aren't you the famous movie creator and a business tycoon. How come you are here? How do you know of us? I have never seen anyone from your family practicing magic" Drumm said with astonishment and little on guard as he felt this John wasn't simple and he might be an otherworldly being in the guise of human. He was ready to conjure Rings of Raggadorr in order to fight.

"Well my circumstances are little special and I have always known the existence of Kamar-Taj and it's importance. Don't worry Master Drumm I haven't come with any malice and I just want to ask the ancient one about something." John said calmly even though he was sweating in his heart. He didn't want to fight Master Drumm specially in their own home turf. Who knows what kind of spells are attached to the Sanctum.

Before Drumm could reply to it suddenly a voice came from behind which said "It's fine Master Drumm. He really didn't come with malice and can actually be considered an ally. You can go back. I will take him to Kamar-Taj."

A bald woman came from behind the stairs and walked towards them. John was excited and nervous to see her. He always felt nervous when he sees these characters which looked exactly the same as in the movies. He was always in awe when he met these characters be it Tony Stark or The ancient one standing right in front of him. He couldn't even open his mouth to speak to her and he stood rooted in his spot.

"What happened kid? Didn't you want to see me? Why are you silent now?" the ancient one asked John with a faint smile.

"Ah! Sorry I was just a little lost in my thoughts" John said shyly. "Alright! Come with me. We have lots to discuss" the ancient one said

After that the ancient one lead John to upstairs and to the doors which let to Kamar Taj. As soon as they passed the door he saw the famous eye of Agamotto or in other sense, the time gem upon a raised stone block. He looked at it for few seconds but turned his eyes. He knew that infinity stones were really powerful but he believed that if he was given enough time he could ignore the power of infinity stones.

The ancient one saw that his eyes were on the eye of Agamotto but turned away soon. John's eyes reflected confidence which raised a smile in the mouth of the ancient one.

After coming in the courtyard while following the ancient one he saw many people practicing magic even though it was night due to time difference, it was chilly outside and the Himalayas being close by. He was envious of them but didn't say anything and just followed the ancient one.

After entering the hall, the ancient one started to brew tea and John sat down in front of her to finish making her tea. After few minutes two pots of tea was ready and gave one cup to John. John took a sip and felt refreshed instantly.

"So you are finally here. I thought you would never come" The ancient one said.

"Well I was scared that you would banish me away from this world" John replied shyly as he couldn't say that he was scared of her but he has a degree of defense in his body. The ancient one could probably guess it but she didn't expose him.

"So have you seen my future?" John asked. The ancient one smiled and said

"Yes and no. I can never see your future. It seems like there is some powerful entity preventing me to see your future but I can see your influence on various people so I know you have no malice to earth. So I don't really care about what you do as long as the defenses against the other dimensions are intact"

"Of course! I won't let anything bad happen to earth as it's my home too. But if someone provokes me or my family I won't mind sending them to eternal damnation" John said while taking a sip. The ancient one just smiled and didn't say anything to this point.

"I have a doubt. Can you help me clarify?" John asked with curiosity.

"Sure! Ask away"

"Did you know of Tiamat?" John asked

The ancient one raised her eye brows when she heard the question. Actually she guessed wrong from beginning. She thought that John's knowledge of future came from the powerful entity behind him who brought him to this world. When John got transmigrated here the ancient one felt a change in defenses of earth.
