A New God's life in Marvel

Chapter 74: For the Greater Good

"Wait Scott." Ororo was the first one who tried to stop Cyclops but she was quite far away. Nobody else was fast or brave enough to go toward Cyclops just when he was opening his visor for an all-out laser blast.

But 'miraculously' the laser never hit Xavier, not because someone had stopped him but because Scott was currently closing his eyes with a dazed calm expression on his face as the professor in front of him was sitting on his chair concentrating with the classic pose of his own forehead with two fingers.

Everyone present already had varied expressions on their faces when the professor's 'betrayal' to his students was revealed but now seeing him taking control of Scott's mind to save himself surprised them even more.

Although the action was actually very normal considering that Charles was just trying to save his own life, the simple show of power of taking away their free will so easily however reminded everyone present how easily accessible all their minds were to the professor. How completely defenseless they were to the do-gooder. This just increased their own subconscious fear and suspicion of Xavier.

None of them were too keen on anyone messing with their minds and memories. They weren't happy with the fact that their memories were or could be manipulated according to the professor's wishes.

They even began to doubt how many more of their own memories the professor had manipulated, suppressed, or straight-up erased.

"What you had done to your own students against their will and wishes could in one way be referred to as mind-rape, a heinous crime that is as disgusting as its physical version. You professor are a criminal even if you do not admit it, similar to your friend Magneto.

He too had his own ideology which he placed before everything else. He could go to any lengths to succeed in his dreams. That made him blind to how he was behaving, changing, and being twisted by his own ideology just like you are now. Correct yourself professor or this world will correct you. It has its own twisted form of karma after all." Rudeus said.

"You don't know what you are talking about." Xavier retorted desperately, not having any reason to give for his actions.

Truthfully I am not even angry at you. I am just disappointed. I wanted to initially punish you, maybe even kill you but now I just pity you. The decision of what to do with you depends on your own students, the ones who trusted you, the very people you wronged. I don't care. Ororo tell me where the incident with Jean happened." Rudeus turned to Ororo.

"Oh and also the quintuplets won't be coming back here. I don't think they deserve to remain here under the constant danger of being manipulated by someone like you." He said his final piece to Xavier. He was lucky that the Stepford Cuckoos were not in the School during the kidnapping since they had gone to France for a trip with their 'mother' who was actually trying to make use of her 'daughters' to attract Rudeus. Both mother and daughters knew this fact but nobody cared since they both were making use of each other to get the same thing, his attention.

Charles wanted to argue that the Stepford Cuckoos themselves had about the same raw telepathic power as him and he would not be able to harm them even if he wanted to since together in a unlimited, they could even block him with Cerebro. Also, he had taught them almost everything he knew about telepathy and even told them a lot of things about the Cerebro itself.

But he didn't say anything for fear that he might get his remaining limbs broken as well by Rudeus if he was angered.

After Rudeus got the location of the place where Jean 'died' from Ororo, he just turned around and left through a boom tube without talking to anyone else anymore.

'I can't believe I was even thinking of curing the professor's legs using my new power. Tchh, mortals like him truly don't deserve my kindness.' he thought as he clicked his tongue in annoyance at his previous naive thought.
