"I think, in a sense, you're right. Charles sighed. "But at what cost?".

Aaron smiled lightly, "Don't be so frustrated, if I kill Hydra, the government will fall in love with us mutants." They hate hydras even more. Of course, if I have to reveal my identity to the public, or they will never know that I did it. "

"I know. Charles responded. "But I don't want people to accept us for reasons like that, that would set a bad precedent. Some people will love us... Some people will be afraid of us, and some will only use us as tools. "

Aaron said sarcastically, "Did you take your title from a cereal box? Don't you really know what's going on in the world right now?".

"Maybe I don't really know, but I know what it usually leads to. I've seen a friend walk your current path... He got nothing but isolation. "

Comparing him to Magneto every time is really unbearable. He didn't want to kill the whole human race, just Hydra, does anyone really like Hydra? Does anyone really care about Hydra?

Aaron coldly replied, "Listen, I'm not Eric (Magneto was a pseudonym during the X-Men). Yes, I know who he is. Frankly, I feel insulted that you compare me to him. Unlike him, I only want to destroy those who will destroy me if they don't destroy them first. And, frankly, while this is only our second meeting, ... I don't think you're qualified to tell me what is morally right and wrong... Consider that you are not doing anything to help those who are really suffering. "

Charles, who was clearly offended, took a deep breath and tried to calm himself, "Everything I do, it's for our race!".

"When they tortured me, month after month, not only broke my bones, but also broke my will, where were you then, and where was your pride?" Aaron asked, "where were you when hundreds of our 'kind' were killed at their base?"

He sighed, "I don't blame you for not saving me, or they... But please let go of your pride, life is not as black and white as you think... There are also gray areas... People like me are forced to live in it... In this case, we have no choice but to fight, or die. "

"What do you think Emily would think?" Charles asked, "will she understand what you're doing now?"

Aaron was furious and slammed his fist on the chair, breaking the wooden chair, "Do you think you're smart? You think you know the truth about the world, but you're using my daughter to contradict me? Hydra did the same... I'm curious to see what happened to them..."

"There's no need to threaten, Mr. Walker. Charles responded.

"That's not a threat. Aaron sneered and picked up his whiskey, "But really, unless you really have a solution that doesn't involve killing, shut up." So far, your so-called moral high ground is just political propaganda, just talking about it. "

"Well, at least you're different from Eric, albeit reluctantly, you're still willing to consider other methods. Charles whispered, "I'll try to find a way to keep you and Emily safe..."

"Charles!" Before Aaron could respond, Charles's office door was slammed open, and Raven hurriedly walked in, "The president called!"

"Oh my God!" Aaron cursed under his breath.

"What's wrong?" Charles looked at him puzzled.

"I know it's time for you to stay with him, but—" Raven was about to say when Aaron interrupted.

"I'll help you with that. Aaron said coldly, trying to look happy as much as he could.

"How do you know?" asked Raven in a whisper, as if she had guessed the answer.

Aaron said softly, "My abilities... Don't question it, I can foresee the future, yes, so be it. "

He didn't tell the truth completely, at least not all.

Actually, if he doesn't help, he knows what to expect, is that a foreknowledge?

"I see myself helping, and I see the consequences of not helping, do you know what happens if I don't help?".

"You're going to die. Charles answered for him and said, "If only I could read more of the information in your head." "

Aaron took a deep breath: "Again, no, I'm not going to let you read my mind deeply. That's because I don't have an ad blocker in my head to stop you from probing. "

He knew that Charles could read deeply, but it would take some effort on the part of Charles.

"Charles?" Raven asked.

"He can help. "

Raven frowned, "Can he? We don't even know what abilities he has other than possible foreknowledge." "

Aaron smiled, "I can do a lot of things, like hear your conversations. This mission, just as I am an intern. "
