A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 6 Frank Castle
Frank Castle was a U.S. Marine Corps officer with the rank of captain.

During his time in the Marine Corps, he was awarded the Medal of Honor, the Navy Cross, the Silver Star three times, and the Purple Heart four times for his outstanding performance.

After retiring, he became a member of the FBI in New York.

Just a day earlier, Frank Castle was having a picnic in the park with his wife and two children.

He happened to witness a gangster vigilante attack and was subsequently silenced by the gangsters.

Frank's wife and children died on the spot, and Frank himself was shot multiple times and fell into the sea because he was caught off guard.

As a result, he was encountered by Li Wei, who was wandering aimlessly on the beach.

While in a coma, Frank's dreams were filled with recurring scenes of his wife and children being murdered.

This made his face extremely ferocious even when he was unconscious.

Finally, Frank was awakened by a nightmare.

Upon waking, Frank instinctively surveyed his surroundings.

But he found himself sleeping in an unfamiliar bedroom.

The original clothes were gone, replaced by a set of men's pajamas.

Didn't I get shot and fall into the sea?

Where is this place?
Frank tried to get up, but as soon as he moved, he felt pain in several parts of his body.

Those were the places where he was shot.

However, when Frank examined his wound, he discovered that the muzzle had already healed.

This is somewhat contrary to Frank's understanding—when did gunshot wounds heal so easily?

Has it been a long time since I fell into a coma?
Moreover, Frank was not happy about the healing of his gunshot wound.

Because the wound has indeed healed.

But the bullet is still stuck in the flesh!
No wonder the gunshot wound hurts terribly whenever I move!

It was at this moment that Frank heard a very unpleasant singing coming from downstairs.

It was sung by a man, who must be quite young.

So the other person saved you?

Frank made a quick judgment.

However, he did not let his guard down. His eyes swept across the room and he quickly found a ballpoint pen, which he quietly put into his sleeve.

Then he quietly went downstairs.

Soon, he found Li Wei in the kitchen, singing and cooking at the same time.

Li Wei was completely unaware of Frank's arrival and continued to leisurely process the ingredients in his hands.

That's normal. In his past life, Li Wei was just a corporate slave.

In this life, I'll just be a fragile, ordinary college student.

That level of vigilance might not even be enough to stop an old lady from staging an accident, so how could it possibly stop a tactical expert like Frank?

Frank quickly assessed Levi's situation.

An ordinary person who can't even kill a chicken, a complete weakling—if Levi knew Frank's assessment, he would definitely disagree. He could even carry Frank, how could he be so weak?

But in any case, at least in Frank's eyes, Levi was indeed no threat at all.

Li Wei didn't realize that there was someone behind him until he turned around with the baking tray in his hand, ready to put it in the oven.

I was so scared that I almost dropped the baking tray I was holding.

"...Brother, when did you wake up? You didn't make a sound. You scared me half to death, you know?" Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing that the person who appeared was Uncle Fa.

The reason he saved the other person, besides the fact that the other person was a famous superhero, was also because the other person was extremely ruthless towards criminals but had virtually no record of harming innocent people.

"Did you save me?" Frank asked, staring at Levi.

"Yes, I found you on the beach and brought you back!" Li Wei nodded. "I think you must be hungry after being unconscious for so long, right? The food will be ready soon!"

As he spoke, he put the baking tray in his hand into the oven.

"Did you heal my injuries too?" Frank asked.

"Uh... sort of, but I just gave you some medicine, no need to thank me too much!" Li Wei chuckled.

"Then you should know I was shot, right? Aren't you afraid I might be some kind of dangerous person?" Frank asked, looking Levi up and down.

“Um… Actually, I know you, Officer Caster!” Levi said after a moment’s hesitation.

The FBI is the federal police force, so calling them officers is perfectly fine.

“…Is that so?” Upon hearing Levi’s words, Frank narrowed his eyes and gripped his pen tighter.

Know him? Impossible!
Frank, a former elite soldier, had an excellent memory. He was certain that he had never met Levi before, and that the other party could not possibly know him.

“I know this might sound unbelievable… but Officer Caster, I still want to tell you that magic exists in this world!” Levi hesitated slightly before speaking.

He knew that it was impossible for a nobody like him, who had never received any training, to lie to the infamous Punisher.

Even though Li Wei had saved his life.

Especially since Li Wei wanted to curry favor with this big shot, it was even more difficult for him to lie to him.

Otherwise, if they get caught, they might lose their lives.

However, Li Wei was absolutely unwilling to reveal all his secrets to the other party.

So Li Wei decided to gain the trust of this big shot by "revealing secrets"—he really didn't have the ability to deceive the Punisher, but what if what he said was true?

“…Go on!” To Levi’s surprise, Frank did not show any emotional fluctuation because of the word “magic”. Instead, he just looked at him and let him continue.

"...No, shouldn't you question what I'm saying? Magic, it's magic!" Frank's attitude left Levi somewhat bewildered.

"Little one, I know far more than you can imagine. Magic is nothing strange!" Frank chuckled.

Frank's words completely stunned Levi.

The Punisher knew about magic? How is that possible?

This has never been mentioned in comics, movies, or TV series!

No, Frank Castle isn't even the Punisher yet.

However, faced with Frank Castle's gaze, Levi had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue speaking as he had previously planned.

"Speaking of magic, we must mention Kamar-Taj... This is an organization that has existed for tens of thousands of years, and their leader is known as the Sorcerer Supreme. The Sorcerer Supreme possesses a magical artifact called the Eye of Argomoto... This is an artifact that can see into the past and the future..." Levi slowly recounted the existence and history of Kamar-Taj.

That's right, in order to gain the Punisher's trust.

Levi lit Kamar-Taj.

Well, I suppose the Supreme Master is magnanimous and won't hold it against him.

And just as Livy was telling the Punisher the story of Kamar-Taj.

Inside the New York Sanctum in Manhattan, the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme, couldn't help but sneeze.

Then it seemed to sense something.

However, she did not take any action. She simply made herself a cup of tea, took a small sip, and then let out a long sigh.

Yeah, it's still more comfortable to slack off.

As long as it doesn't affect the entire dimension, who cares!
