"This looks incredibly painful." Mordo glanced at Tony's miserable state at the stair railing and immediately understood what had happened.

"This looks incredibly painful." Mordo glanced at Tony's miserable state at the stair railing and immediately understood what had happened. After all, they had been standing nearby when Kei made the bet with him.

Even though they were deeply immersed in that high-level spell energy conversion method, they had not completely lost their awareness of their surroundings.

If it wasn't true love, it would cause unbearable pain.

So, Tony learned through the restriction that Pepper deeply loved him, but when she found out the truth, she responded to this distrust with a powerful knee strike.

Kei also laughed. He couldn't help but think of Kushina, who was known as the Blood-Red Pepper. Only in front of him would she restrain her fiery temper and turn into a soft and adorable sweet girl. But if it were an enemy or someone she disliked...

"Have we achieved our goal?" Kaecilius, whose face was always accustomed to indifference, now showed a hint of confusion.

Kei had said they would establish cooperation with SHIELD to deal with the impending crisis. But they had only exchanged a few words, no substantial cooperation agreements or terms had been discussed.

Could this be considered a successful collaboration?

"Hmm, it went much more smoothly than I expected." Kei responded while recalling Fury's reaction and words, once again sighing at the man's intelligence.

Facing a group of sorcerers who weren't entirely unfamiliar, Fury had carefully weighed the pros and cons. He did not leverage the backing of the World Security Council, nor did he bring up Captain Marvel to exert pressure. Instead, he lowered his stance to the absolute minimum.

He was making it clear to Kei: SHIELD would not interfere with the sorcerers' actions and would even provide maximum assistance.

And Kei's final reminder? It was not just to inform Fury about the internal issues within SHIELD. By entrusting the management of sorcerer-related information to JARVIS, he was subtly hinting that sorcerers would gradually emerge into the public's view.

Would Fury fail to catch on? Never underestimate the intelligence of a top spy, especially one who leads SHIELD!

He understood. In fact, he had likely anticipated this before even coming here. So, there was no unnecessary response.

"JARVIS, create a new encrypted website. The domain name should be Sorcerer Alliance. Login should require a username, password, facial recognition, and iris verification."

"Understood. All related domains have been registered and purchased. The login system is set up. Would you like to start designing the web page?"

"Just copy Facebook's layout for now, I'll make some modifications." Kei quickly set up the forum, then used illusion magic to project segments of his memory in front of JARVIS' document scanner, rapidly inputting large amounts of data.

The system was set to require real-name registration, and new accounts could only be created by already registered members in a logged-in state. This was to ensure that ordinary people couldn't randomly access the forum.

With JARVIS handling backend management, it not only provided a free server but also safeguarded sorcerers' information from falling into the wrong hands. After all, it was already 2011, and sorcerers didn't even have an online platform to communicate with each other. That was unacceptable!

After quickly setting up the forum, Kei uploaded a vast collection of basic magic knowledge extracted from the Chaos Sorcerer archives.

He also posted recordings of his previous lectures and news about the Ancient One breaking into the realm of Chaos Sorcery in the "Current Events" section.

Looking at the still somewhat empty forum page, he shifted his gaze to Kaecilius, who appeared confused. Seeing his clueless expression, Kei shook his head in resignation.

Forget it. No need to trouble guys who couldn't even properly use a smartphone.

"JARVIS, in my name, send a message to all the sorcerers who attended my lectures at Kamar-Taj. Assign each of them an account and instruct them to enter their information."

"Understood. Task completed. Do you have any other requests?"

"The basic magic books I uploaded earlier, break them down and optimize them according to the way I taught, then integrate them into the forum's database as detailed appendices for each spell."

"Deconstructing, analyzing, and optimizing... Estimated completion time: 12 hours."

"Take your time, no rush." Kei watched as Wong, Mordo, and Kaecilius simultaneously pulled out their phones. He no longer paid attention to the forum and its updates.

Instead, he shifted his gaze to his personal panel.

With a continuous stream of system rewards, Kei's personal panel had accumulated a ridiculous number of flashy bonuses. He browsed through the reward options.

First, he used the Associated Trait Extraction.

---

[Associated trait selected: Heavenly Divine Play]

[Obtained:

- Hundred-Person Survival Trial (Purple)]

[Hundred-Person Survival Trial (Purple):

After setting a specific reward, the host can designate or randomly select up to 100 extraordinary individuals from the current planet (whose power does not exceed the host's) to enter a survival trial space. The trial can be in solo mode, duo mode, or group mode. The winner receives the predetermined reward.

(PS: The trial space is a replica; death in the space is not actual death.)]

---

This... is basically a god's way of selecting the best minions—uh, I mean, followers?

He stroked his chin. This trait was somewhat related to Heavenly Divine Play, since both involved forcing people to fight. But instead of a normal contest, this one dragged 100 people into some survival arena.

Wasn't this just another version of Battle Royale?

Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, Iron Man, Pepper, Black Widow... A massive chaotic brawl?

Now that sounded kind of fun.

The only issue was that to use this trait, he needed to set up a prize first. Maybe he could use those bootleg weapons he copied with as rewards?

System, activate Hundred-Person Survival Trial.

As soon as he spoke, the trait was activated. A flood of information surged into his mind, along with a special bound space.

Desert. Snowfield. Island. Jungle!

Then he noticed, since the trial space was bound to him, even the system's unactivated traits could be used as rewards.

A mischievous smile crept across his face.

What if he set traits like Overtime Karen or Silky Entrance as prizes?

Imagine fighting through hordes of competitors, only to win... chronic period cramps.

They'd lose their minds!

The winner receives a prize set by the host.]

So the battle happens first, and I decide the prize afterward? Kei raised an eyebrow.

From 1v1 duels to full-blown battle royales, and now he could even adjust participants' strength by 20%?

A competition designed for the amusement of gods. And this was only red-tier?

This was absolutely insane!
