*51

Seeing Hermione with a happy smile on her dust-covered face, everyone was at a loss for words.

This young wizard... truly one of a kind!

"What is this?" Fury inquired.

"The Undetectable Extension Charm, a simple space-expansion magic. Don't make such a fuss," Hermione waved dismissively.

Everyone: "..."

Yes, we overreacted.

You poured a mountain out of your schoolbag and called us dramatic...

Is this even the world we know?

Hermione raised her hand, and several books floated in the air, gently landing in their respective hands.

Witnessing this magical scene, the agents quickly opened their books, eager to learn.

Hermione took out an apple and began to nibble.

The books she provided were abridged versions of her history of magic and the basics. Many copies were printed with replica spells. She filtered out the overly complex and unnecessary details, focusing on what they needed to know.

Seeing everything finally on track, Fury felt relieved.

As long as S.H.I.E.L.D. could cultivate its own mystical countermeasures team, it was all worth it.

After a while, Sitwell, the bald agent, looked up and whispered:

"Miss Wizard, I've finished reading. I have some questions. Could you please help me?"

Hermione was a bit surprised, as the others were still reading.

She expected Hawkeye to finish first, but it turned out to be the bald agent.

It seemed that to reach Level 8 as a non-combat agent, Sitwell had some skills.

Considering his eventual fate—thrown out of a car by a Winter Soldier—Hermione pondered silently.

Should she protect him...?

It's a shame he ended up like that; he clearly had talent beyond flattery.

"Wait a moment, let's wait for everyone to finish."

After a short while, the others finished reading.

Hermione turned to Sitwell. "Agent Sitwell, please ask your question."

Sitwell nodded and said, "Miss Wizard, the book mentions three types of mages: wizards, mystical mages, and dimensional mages. What differentiates these three?"

"Very good, that's a valuable question. Gryffin... Agent Sitwell earns five points!"

Thinking about it, Hermione realized that aside from Hawkeye Barton, the rest were likely all from Slytherin.

Slytherin... Slytherin...

Hydra House!

Hello, Hydra!

After being praised, Sitwell straightened with pride.

Great, he was providing emotional value. If he continued like this, he wouldn't be killed by the Winter Soldier!

Hermione coughed slightly and explained:

"Wizards are born with magic power, using spells to transform magic into magical effects. They can't be created later, and most of their strength relies on talent. The lower limit is low, but the upper limit is high. Wizards often live in their own exclusive spaces, hidden from the Muggle world, and have no absolute leader."

"Mystical mages absorb energy from the real world, using spiritual guidance to construct magic. Ordinary people can become mystical mages through cultivation, but talent is still crucial. Except for the Ancient One, most are mediocre. They reside in Kamar-Taj, led by the Supreme Sorcerer, the Ancient One, one of the world's most powerful mages. How she practices is a mystery."

Kamar-Taj was outed on the spot.

"As for dimensional mages, they're essentially mystical mages but don't practice mystical arts. They draw power from other dimensions and are deeply tied to those planes. They're the rarest, with only a few worldwide."

She thought of Wanda the Scarlet Witch and Agatha the Dark Witch as examples.

Everyone listened intently, absorbing the information.

In just a short time, their worldview had shifted dramatically.

"I heard you mention you're a wizard?" Rumlow asked carefully.

Noting Hermione's fondness for Sitwell, he tried a similar approach.

"Yes," Hermione nodded. "Though wizards are most numerous, they interact least with reality."

"Are wizards all as powerful as you?"

"Not at all!"

Hermione gestured for them to lean in and whispered:

"I'll tell you a secret. I'm one of the best wizards in the world. Oh, don't tell anyone, shh~"

Everyone: "..."

Goodness, the kid's at it again.

A twelve-year-old claiming to be one of the world's most powerful wizards.

They rolled their eyes internally but dared not show it, fearing Hermione's wrath and a repeat of the crushing pressure.

Only Fury listened, feeling that Hermione's claim might be... true.

"Meow~"

Amidst the questions, a cat meowed. At the training room's door, an orange tabby slipped in unnoticed.

The cat wore a name tag around its neck.

Goose.

Watching the orange tabby weave around their feet, the agents were captivated.

Indeed, cats have a universal charm.

A cat that held an elite group of agents' attention for over ten seconds.

Only Hermione's expression suddenly changed. With a wave of her wand, a gust of wind separated everyone from the orange cat.

Then, dragons made of fire soared, encircling the tabby.

The intense heat caused the air to shimmer.

Seeing Hermione on high alert, the agents were stunned.

What had prompted her reaction?

Dislike for cats?

And this magnificent display of flames... Was this wizard magic?

So powerful... Their eyes were filled with awe, and Ward, Rumlow, and others had glints in their eyes, contemplating something.

Only Fury was momentarily shocked, then looked at Hermione with surprise.

Hermione glanced at him. "Flerken... Fury, S.H.I.E.L.D. really dares to keep anything."

Of course, she recognized it with a wizard's keen eye...

Fury scratched his nose, a touch of embarrassment on his face.

"I'm sorry, Miss Wizard, Goose means no harm. Please dispel the fire."

After a moment's thought, Hermione lifted the spell, and the fire dragons dissipated.

With the pressure gone, everyone sighed in relief.

"I know this little guy has no ill intentions, but its instinct to swallow has nothing to do with good or evil. I don't mind. Even if I end up in its belly, I can leave. But these around me... "

Hermione glanced at the agents. "Don't expect me to rescue anyone."

"Flerken?"

Sitwell stepped forward, glancing at Fury for approval, then at Hermione with curiosity.
