Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Dumbledore's Magical Heritage
After a moment of eerie silence, the abomination climbed out of the rubble, its massive body heaving with effort. It raised its monstrous head and locked its hateful gaze on Kyle, who hovered in mid-air.
Its eyes burned with anger and cruelty as a guttural growl rumbled deep in its chest.
With a powerful leap, the ground beneath its feet cracked like a spiderweb, and the abomination launched itself upward like a cannonball, aiming straight for Kyle.
Kyle, however, had no intention of prolonging this fight. He extended his right hand, and golden light coalesced into the shape of a spear.
Incursio's Spear of Wrath—a weapon of unparalleled destructive power, forged from the remnants of a dragon's essence. Its golden sheen radiated an ominous aura, promising devastation to all who dared face it.
With a sharp flap of his wings, Kyle surged forward, meeting the abomination mid-air.

The clash was brief and brutal.
The tip of the golden spear collided with the abomination's massive fist—and pierced through it effortlessly. The weapon continued its deadly path, driving through the creature's chest and pinning it to the ground below.
Kyle landed gracefully, the golden spear still embedded in his foe. The abomination writhed and growled, its monstrous form defying death despite the fatal wound.
Its bloodshot eyes fixed on Kyle, and it roared in defiance. "Who… who are you?!"
Kyle smirked, gripping the spear tightly. He yanked it free with a sickening crunch and then drove it into the abomination's skull, silencing it forever.
"Who am I?" Kyle muttered, his voice dripping with cold amusement. "If you ever meet God, you can ask Him who killed you. Then again…" He paused, a cruel smile tugging at his lips. "You're more likely to end up in hell—if even that."
The abomination's death sent a surge of energy coursing through Kyle's body. The progress bar for his mysterious summoning technique, visible only in the depths of his consciousness, jumped from 45% to 102% in an instant.
"Impressive," Kyle mused, noting how the abomination, a creature of pure chaos, had fueled his progress so dramatically.
Above, a military helicopter hovered in the smoky skies. Inside, General Ross peered down at Kyle's golden form with a mixture of awe and frustration.
"Find him," Ross barked. "Search the entire city if you have to!"
But Kyle had no intention of playing games with the military—or Ross, in particular. He activated Incursio's invisibility, his figure fading until it was entirely imperceptible.

Once safe, Kyle deactivated the armor and teleported back home, stepping into the familiar chaos of Wanda and Pietro's sibling bickering.
"Pietro! Get up and finish your test paper!" Wanda scolded, hands on her hips.
Pietro groaned dramatically, slumping further into the sofa. "I just ate! Can't I rest for a minute?"
Wanda narrowed her eyes. "Call me 'sister,' and I might let you rest a little."
Kyle chuckled at their antics, greeting them briefly before retreating to his room.

Sitting at his desk, Kyle closed his eyes and delved into the depths of his consciousness.
"Activate summoning," he commanded mentally.
The progress bar dropped from 102% to 2%, and a new notification filled his mind:
Summoning Complete!
Reward: Dumbledore's Magical Inheritance
Kyle's eyes widened in shock and delight as the details unfolded.
Dumbledore's Magical Inheritance: The accumulated knowledge, skills, and power of Albus Dumbledore, the greatest wizard of his time. This inheritance includes over a century of magical expertise, mastery of ancient spells, and unparalleled magical energy at its peak.
Kyle couldn't contain his excitement. In all his previous summonings, none had come close to this. The closest contender had been Deadshot's inheritance, which had given him deadly precision and combat skills. But this… this was on an entirely different level.
Without hesitation, Kyle accepted.
A torrent of knowledge flooded his mind—spells, incantations, magical theory, and strategies crafted over Dumbledore's 116-year lifespan. His body trembled as a new energy, ancient and potent, began to manifest within him.
Kyle smiled faintly, his excitement tempered by determination. With this power, I'll be unstoppable.
