If Strange was just an ordinary person,
Or if Issou did not know that he was the Supreme Mage, he would look at the antler helmet and ask such a question.
The black-haired girl probably would not find it strange. At most, she would guess that he liked the antler helmet.
She thought that it was very exquisite.
But Issou knew that he was not an ordinary person, so Strange suddenly asked such a question.
The black-haired girl could not help but start to guess.
Was there really something wrong with the antler helmet that Mr. Long Legs gave her?
But the problem was …
She did not think that there was anything wrong with Mr. Long Legs.
Because of Strange's action and question, Issou,
Subconsciously thought back to the two meetings that he had with Mr. Long Legs and the one time that they had chatted.
There was nothing suspicious about any part of the process and any part of the process.
Uh.
It was not that there was nothing suspicious.
He thought of the culprit for the strong contrast between the two of them when he met Loki — Long Legs. So the most suspicious thing about Mr. Long Legs was, what did he eat to make his legs so long?
Loki, who was considered a third-level cripple among the Frost Giants, "…"
Since he could not figure out what was wrong,
So Issou simply looked at Strange, hoping to get an answer from him.
Looking into Issou's eyes, which were full of curiosity, Strange had the illusion that he was standing on a podium.
He cleared his throat,
After chasing this strange illusion out of his mind, he said, "Just call me Stephen, Stephen Strange."
It was not that Strange had something to hide from Issou, so he decided to change the topic.
It was because Issou looked like he did not seem to know that
He didn't seem to know the Evil God Loki. Considering that Izu's mother always hid these things from her precious daughter, he didn't want to spill the beans.
Yes.
It was purely out of love for the younger generation.
Absolutely! Yes! No! Yes! Because he was afraid of Issou's mother's revenge.
That was what Strange thought as he pretended not to feel guilty at all.
Seeing that Strange was about to speak, Issou thought that he would give some kind of answer. He did not expect that the first thing that came out of his mouth was a self-introduction.
The black-haired girl: "…"
Not boasting.
She knew this.
Regardless of whether it was DC or Marvel, there were too many superheroes and supervillains involved in the Marvel universe.
Issou, who had not read the entire series, could not guarantee that he knew every superhero or supervillain.
However, Doctor Strange was different. After all, he was one of the superheroes who had appeared in an anime, so Issou still had a deep impression of him.
However, the black-haired girl was a little confused. How could the real-life Stephen Strange look exactly like the real-life Shylock Holmes?
Their faces were completely different in the anime.
However, when she remembered that Deadpool had told her before that the actor who played him and the actor who played Green Lantern were the same person, Issou understood.
So in another world (such as the fourth dimensional wall that Deadpool broke), the actor who played Strange and the actor who played Sherlock Holmes were the same person, right?
If this was the case, then it would explain why there were so many "Shylock" in New York.
Issou thought so in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. Although she was a little Strange why Strange suddenly introduced himself, she still said, "Okay, Stephen."
With that said, the black-haired girl curled her lips at Strange and introduced herself, "My name is Issou, you can call me Issou."
Hearing this, Strange nodded and said, "I know this."
Issou: "…???"
Wait.
Isn't this her line?
Seeing Issou's eyes widened in surprise because of his words, Strange inexplicably felt a little funny.
To be honest, he accidentally saw a photo of Issou's mother, Coubé, a long time ago, and it was at that time that he learned that she had a daughter. So he knew that Issou and her mother looked quite similar, but the personalities of the mother and daughter were completely different.
Two people who look alike are easy to be mistaken at first glance, but as long as their personalities and temperaments are different, it is easy to distinguish them.
This kind of ease reached its peak after Strange saw Issou in person.
The mage thought to himself that he probably guessed the reason why Loki was willing to give his antler helmet to Issou despite the relationship between Coubé and Loki.
Issou did not know what Strange was thinking. Her mind was now filled with the words he just said, and her heart itched as if it was being scratched by Jarvis Meow's claws.
The black-haired girl looked at Strange. Her understanding of the Supreme Mage was limited to the fact that he could draw circles, had the Eye of Agamotto, and could turn back time, and now there was one more thing —
He looked exactly like Shylock.
Issou did not think that Strange's words were aimless, so the question was —
Since it was not aimless, why did he say that?
Issou asked Strange, "Strange, do you, uh, have telepathy?"
So even without her introduction, he could easily find out what her name was, and even know more than that?
Hearing Issou's words, Strange knew what she meant. He immediately said, "I do have some telepathy."
Compared to Professor X, Charles's telepathy was naturally far inferior, because his telepathy ability was very weak, but he could rely on magic or tools to strengthen this ability.
"But that's not why I know your name."
Seeing the black-haired girl staring at him almost unblinkingly, Strange continued, "In fact, it's because I know your mother, so I know your name is Issou."
Issou: "…???"
This answer was even more confusing to the black-haired girl than what he just said.
"You, you know my mother?"
Issou remembered that before breaking the Dimensional Wall, Doctor Strange was just a superhero in a comic to her, but after breaking the Dimensional Wall, he became a living person in her life, so …
"Did you just meet her?"
"No."
Strange shook his head honestly. He had nothing to hide on this matter. He said to Issou, "Before you came here, Coubé and I knew each other."
Probably because of the presence of Toad and Meatballs, Strange did not speak clearly, but even so, Issou understood what he meant.
If it were anyone else, they would probably think that Strange said that he knew her mother before she came to New York, but Issou understood what he meant. He said that before she broke the Dimensional Wall, he already knew her mother.
Issou: "…"
Help.
Her mind is a little messed up now.
Strange: "…"
Anyone would be messed up.
The relationship between Strange and Coubé … How should I put it?
They are fellow disciples.
The reason why he said this is that when he was not Sorcerer Supreme and was still a neurosurgeon who believed in science very much and whose worldview had not been shattered, he was unable to pick up a scalpel with both hands because of a serious car accident.
For this reason, he looked for famous doctors everywhere, and in vain, he was brought to Ancient One by Coubé — —
Since then, his worldview began to shatter, and his belief in science faltered.
Before replacing Ancient One as Sorcerer Supreme, Strange thought that Coubé was a disciple of Ancient One like him, but later he learned that he was wrong.
It's just that Strange's mistake is his business. Anyway, Coubé has firmly attached the title of Junior Brother to him, so even if they are not both disciples of Ancient One, in terms of identity, the two of them are still in a relationship of Senior and Junior Brother.
Strange: "…"
What can he do?
He had to admit it.
Strange briefly told Issou about himself and Coubé. Of course, he didn't say what he needed to hide, but even so, the news alone was enough to make Issou almost unable to digest it.
Issou looked at Strange and said, "So you and my mother have known each other for a long time, and you're Senior and Junior Brother?"
Strange nodded and said, "Yes."
Issou: "…"
Although she hasn't figured it out yet and her mind is still in a mess, it doesn't prevent her from sighing — —
Amazing, my mother!
Because of this sudden knowledge, Issou's attention was completely attracted, so at this moment, she didn't remember that she just wanted to get information from Strange about whether there was a problem with the antler helmet.
Strange: "…"
The plan worked.
The Sorcerer Supreme had learned from Issou's mother that her baby daughter was easily distracted, and it turned out that it was indeed very easy.
Issou: "…!!!???"
Such a big deal!
Who wouldn't be distracted by something like this!?
"What are you going to do with these two people?"
Since Strange has admitted that he and Coubé are Senior and Junior Brother, he naturally treats Issou as a close junior.
Hearing Strange's words, Issou barely struggled out of a ball of wool. She thought for a moment and asked, "Can you take us to see Professor X together?"
Issou's words made a look of approval flash in Strange's eyes, and he said, "Of course, no problem."
