Chapter 273 Admit Your Imperfection
Chapter 273 Admit Your Imperfection
Upstairs in the Avengers base, in Wanda's room, a TV was broadcasting news footage.
The room that was supposed to be filled with sunlight now seemed a little dark because the curtains were drawn.
Wanda was sitting cross-legged on the soft big bed at the moment, with her arm resting on her white right leg, watching the TV news not far away.
"A few days ago in Lagos, Nigeria, the Avengers fought against a group of mercenaries."
"Among the innocent civilians killed in this confrontation were eleven Wakandans, formerly isolated Wakandas who were conducting diplomatic advocacy work in Largos at the time of the attack."
"The King of Wakanda, T'Chaka, is at the United Nations calling for the Avengers to be held accountable."
The picture on the TV changed, and a black-skinned, white-haired old man was standing on the UN press conference platform and talking.
"Our people died in this foreign land not only because of crime, but because of the indifference of those who claimed to stop it."
"Victories achieved at the expense of innocents cannot be called victories at all."
After these few words were finished, the screen switched back to the hostess who had just broadcast the news.
She looked ahead seriously, and concluded righteously: "All parties have strongly condemned the actions of the Avengers."
"They believe that the actions of the Avengers are completely above international law. If measures are not taken against similar actions, then such tragedies will continue to be staged."
"What legal right does a superhuman like Wanda Maximoff have to do something like this in Nigeria?"
"Her actions not only undermined Nigeria's sovereignty and laws, but also directly resulted in the death of dozens of innocent people and the injury of hundreds of others."
"Turn off the TV." Harry, who was walking to the door, turned off the TV directly after hearing the voice broadcast in the news.
"It's all my fault." Although the TV was turned off, Wanda still stared at the blacked out plane and said firmly.
Hearing Wanda's remorse, Harry also said bluntly: "No, it's not your fault."
"But they have already mentioned my name and accused me of my behavior." Wanda continued.
Hearing this, Harry also walked into the room, and sat next to Wanda.
He and Wanda had a lot of exchanges during this period, and they can be regarded as relatively good friends.
Rogers also invited several people from the Hexagram Alliance to be their instructors when training the new Avengers. Wanda and Harry also became familiar with each other during that time.
After their initial training, Harry took Wanda and Pietro on night patrols.
Although the abilities of both of them are very powerful, they still lack a lot of combat experience, intuition and judgment during battle, and this is what Harry needs to teach them.
Speaking of the abilities of Wanda and Pietro, Meng Ran also secretly possessed them during this period, but after only possessing Pietro, Meng Ran understood that he seemed unable to obtain the abilities from these two mutated people.
Perhaps it was the mutation induced by the Mind Stone that caused their abilities to change strangely. Although Meng Ran was very puzzled by this, there was nothing he could do about it.
"Wanda, you have to understand that this is not your fault, you have done the limit of what you can do." Harry comforted Wanda softly.
"That's what they say on the TV news because they need someone to be the bearer of the responsibility and a target for people to blame and abuse."
"They can never and won't understand such a thing. You don't need to care about their opinion at all. We only need to have a clear conscience in what we do."
"But it's obviously possible for me to prevent anyone from getting hurt." Wanda continued after hearing what Harry said to her.
She always felt that if she could suppress the explosion for one more second, maybe those people would not have to die.
"If you don't interfere, what will happen if you let that explosive explode in the dense crowd on the ground?"
"You suppress the explosion that has already happened, and then find a way to send it into the air. This is the way you want to rescue them."
"If you have the ability, but let that bomb go off, then you should indeed be guilty and responsible."
"But you have tried your best to do it, but the explosion still hurt some people, so this result is not the responsibility you should bear and feel guilty about."
"What we have to do is not every time something like this happens and regret why we couldn't do better at that time? And then soak in the pain."
"What we should do is to continue to exercise our abilities and work hard to save more people next time."
After speaking, Harry also looked into Wanda's eyes, and then said solemnly to her, "Wanda, you have to know that no one is perfect, and no one can be perfect."
"Maybe there's nothing wrong with us being superheroes, but we're neither God nor gods."
"We're always trying to save as many people as possible, but sometimes we can't save everyone."
"If there's no way to accept that, then the next time something like this happens you may not be able to save anyone."
Hearing Harry's words, Wanda also lowered her head and fell into deep thought. During this time, she has been digging into her own horns, and she can't get out of that cycle.
Harry's words today also made her start to think from a different perspective, and accepting her own imperfection is also a compulsory course for every superhero to grow up.
Seeing that Wanda seemed to have stepped out of the dead end of his own thoughts, Harry also nodded in relief.
As long as it works, it's not in vain that he spent a long time talking, and even borrowed what Rogers said downstairs just now.
That’s right, it’s for reference. After all, how can scholars’ affairs be called plagiarism? As long as some words can inspire others, it’s fine, and it doesn’t matter who said the words or where they came from.
After Harry finished speaking, Rogers, who was drinking coffee downstairs, also suddenly sneezed.
"Did I catch a cold? It shouldn't be possible."
The sneeze made Rogers feel very strange, because he hadn't been sick since he became a super soldier.
The only times he's been in the hospital are because he was injured while fighting or fighting with those outlaws.
In this way, Rogers downstairs and Meng Ran drank coffee and chatted, and Wanda upstairs gradually untied the knot under Harry's enlightenment.
