Enchantress

Enchantress, whose real name was Amora Lorelei.

She was a powerful sorceress from Asgard, with strength and speed beyond human limits, as well as an extraordinarily long lifespan that had allowed her to retain her incredibly seductive beauty even now.

Though she was a sorceress, her close-combat skills were no slouch either. She had once fought Thor evenly through sheer martial skill. Still, as a sorceress, Lorelei’s favorite thing was casting all kinds of powerful magic.

Known as the Enchantress, her specialty was immensely powerful enchantment magic. She often used her beauty alongside magical influence to control members of the opposite sex. Its potency was such that even many overwhelmingly powerful heroes had fallen victim to it.

"So many years have passed. Ever since those heroes were all killed, I haven’t fought a real hero in a very long time. But now, Odin above, darling, you are simply the finest gift the gods could have given me."

Lorelei’s voice was impossibly soft, like the song of a Banshee, drawing anyone who heard it helplessly into its depths. It was filled with nothing but pure pursuit and longing for desire.

"What a coincidence. I feel the same way about you. Do you know how happy I was when I found you? Ever since those Dimension Lords and Earth’s sanctums were exiled to another world, I’ve been desperately searching for someone capable of providing me with powerful energy."

Zhang Ye smiled faintly. He did not think Lorelei could slip out of his grasp.

Remind me, Miss Minutes. How much charge can this beauty restore to the Time Twister?

At least 4%. She possesses powerful origin energy. As Asgard’s last remaining existence, the portion of heroic spirit power contained within her body is astonishing.

Miss Minutes’s answer made Zhang Ye’s smile grow even more pronounced. The intensity of his gaze even made Lorelei, standing opposite him, tremble inwardly.

Lorelei did not understand. Every man who saw her looked at her with intense, brazen desire, but for some reason, this sorcerer’s gaze actually filled her with a trace of fear.

But Lorelei quickly suppressed the unease on her pretty face. She revealed an alluring smile again and gave Zhang Ye a bewitching wink.

"Cute little thing, I think you should be able to put on quite a show for me. Let me see it, darling. Just how powerful is your magic?"

As she spoke, Lorelei knowingly tilted her chin toward Zhang Ye’s teammates. The meaning she intended to convey was obvious.

The moment Lorelei spoke, Zhang Ye could clearly feel his mind being invaded. And this invasion was not coming from outside, but from within his own body.

It was as though something inside him had violently ignited under the influence of Lorelei’s words. That blazing desire rushed straight into his mind, trying to seize control of Zhang Ye’s mental world.

A flash of green light passed through Zhang Ye’s eyes, his black pupils engulfed in green.

"Fine. Then I’ll show you."

The next moment, Zhang Ye tightly gripped the Black Umbrella and slashed forward. Instantly, an invisible current of air, almost impossible to see with the naked eye, tore through the sky and flew straight toward Lorelei’s head.

Lorelei’s pupils contracted. She had apparently never expected Zhang Ye to be completely unaffected by her enchantment magic.

But with the blade wind already upon her, she had little time left. She could not think any further and could only roll away awkwardly, narrowly evading the attack.

"Winds of Calamity!?" Lorelei, who was well versed in all kinds of Black Magic, naturally recognized Zhang Ye’s spell. She raised her head in disbelief and stared blankly at the young sorcerer. "Impossible. No one can break free from my enchantment magic!"

"You underestimate me, Lorelei. It’s true that I have desires, but I’m not so far gone that I would become their slave." Zhang Ye spun the black umbrella like a blade, his expression full of mockery as he looked at Lorelei’s disheveled state.

"Impossible. The power of the Dimension Lords should have been driven out by reality long ago. Even Mephisto cannot interfere with this world. Where did you get the energy to cast such powerful magic!?"

Lorelei’s seductive face was filled with disbelief. She had also participated in that battle back then, and as one of the main forces among the magic-aligned villains, no one understood this world’s magical energy better than she did.

Ever since Earth’s Sanctum Sanctorum had fallen, all manner of magical creations had descended into endless madness. After the Dimension Lords were jointly exiled by the villains, the only things on Earth still capable of using magic were Divine Relics that contained energy themselves.

But the problem was that Red Skull had destroyed those things, while the rest were concentrated in Doctor Doom’s hands. No matter how she thought about it, she could not understand how Zhang Ye was releasing magic.

After all, in the wasteland world of today, even casting magic was no easy task for her. If she could not still draw upon Asgard’s remaining energy, then forget spellcasting—she would not even be able to maintain her long life and beauty.

"You’re right. Casting magic in this world is not an easy thing, but fortunately, I know quite a few tricks. If I spend some time on it, I can still find a few ways to let me cast magic."

At those words, Lorelei clenched her teeth, frost appearing on her face. Yet at the same time, her gaze at Zhang Ye also revealed a hint of possessiveness.

Though she did not know the source of this Black Wizard’s magic power, as long as she could control this little thing, she would eventually have the chance to uncover the secrets he carried.

And if she truly mastered that powerful strength, perhaps she could even overthrow those two old fools, Red Skull and Doctor Doom, and truly become the queen of Midgard!

At that thought, Lorelei’s eyes gradually burned with heat.

She abruptly rose to her feet, dense dark-green light erupting from both hands.

Though both her magical energy and Zhang Ye’s were green, the feelings those two energies gave off were entirely different.

Zhang Ye’s energy was filled with deathly silence and the netherworld. Simply looking at it was enough to make one feel terror in their soul. Pietro had once commented on Zhang Ye’s magical energy, saying, "It’s completely different from other Black Magic. This is an unknown power that heralds death."

Lorelei’s magic, on the other hand, flickered with countless emotions and desires. Rather than magic with immense destructive power, it was more like true witchcraft aimed at the mental world.

"I hope you can make me even more excited, darling~"

Watching countless green magical missiles rain toward him like celestial flowers scattering from the heavens, Zhang Ye twisted the arm holding the black umbrella. In an instant, the gray current of the Winds of Calamity wrapped around the Black Umbrella.

"Don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you."
