DC Comics: The Bookstore Witch

Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Clone Spell, New Books, and Ideas



[3rd POV]

With the decision to work with Daenerys being made, Wanda ended up deciding to learn how to use a rather important spell, one that would allow her to properly aid and teach Daenerys, without neglecting her shop and all the duties that that entailed.

A cloning spell.

It was an easy enough thing to learn, well, normally at least. But she was far from normal, and she found that making a copy of her with even 50% of her power was...well, impossible. It simply didn't work, as if there could only ever be one her, even if the clone was a fake, a copy made of her own power, like a shadow clone from Naruto or something.

So she limited the clone to less than 1% of 1% of her total power. Strong enough to deal with any threats that may arise in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire. At least, the threats that Daenerys shouldn't be dealing with. Like the Gods, who she knew would no doubt be displeased with her existence, should the Gods even be real.

The clone would be hers to control, and would be controlled by her at all times. It would be a neat ability to use to learn more of the books in that world, and she planned on using it for several other worlds as well. These clones would never be used for more than learning and teaching, so anything less...appropriate would not even be considered.

After the clone spell had been mastered and properly trained to a level that was deemed safe enough for her to use, she had sent her clone off with Daenerys, the clone in question wearing a formal dress befitting that of the Game of Thrones universe.

It was the making of the clone that made Wanda realize that she would eventually need to connect to the Naruto universe. As there were plenty of unique techniques and abilities in that universe that could be insanely powerful in her hands. Something like the Tenseigan, Rinnegan, and various others could be boosted to entirely new realms of power with her as their users.

Not to mention the likelihood of her having an entirely different level of chakra in comparison to someone like Kaguya or literally any other Otsutsuki. It would be another form of power that would only serve to make her even stronger, making it an appealing universe for the future.

But for now, she decided to focus on the universes she already had connected to the shop, which is why she was watching in amusement as the Doctor and Rose looked through the newer books she had gotten. The Doctor's eyes gleaming in interest at the books on magical creatures, and the books that Dionysus had given her.

"Are these all new? They're certainly different than the old ones you had here" The Doctor asked, looking back at her with his glasses on, which she nodded in response to.

"Yep. The Greek God Dionysus gave me them in exchange for some wine. A pretty interesting fellow, that one. He's come around a few times since then and gave me some more books" Wanda said. This was true, as Dionysus had become a regular customer of hers, and exchanged more and more books. With a lot of them being on various alcohols and fruits unique to his world, as he seemingly wanted her to make new wines with them.

Which is exactly what she did. And in return, she was getting influxes of dozens of books from him alone.

She was very interested in meeting Athena, upon hearing that she had a library with far more interesting and rare books than him. That, and Athena was one of her more favored Gods, not that she particularly liked any of them, well, besides Hestia.

Hestia was the best God, and the only one that she was interested in making a monument to. As a Hearth would be a good addition to the Greek section of her growing shop, and she was interested in interacting with her.

"Gods exist?" Rose asked in surprise, as the Doctor looked interested. There were indeed "Gods" in his universe, but they were...well...not the nicest, and VERY powerful. He shuddered at the thought of more beings like Sutehk existing out there in numbers akin to that of the Greeks.

"In the universe he is from? Yep. There's pretty much every pantheon you can think of over there. Celtic, Norse, Egyptian, Roman, Greek, so on and so forth. The strongest of them is the Hindu pantheon" Wanda explained.

"And are they as...open as they are in the myths?"

"...Very. It's honestly a little creepy how much cheating is regular for them. Not to mention all of the incest, Wars, and the way they treat their demigod children" Wanda replied, as she wasn't very fond of the Gods and the way they acted.

"Well, I'd rather not meet them, if they are ever here. So please do warn us if they ever arrive" The Doctor said, not really wishing to meet someone like Zeus or Ares, both of them being historically horrid men.

"Noted" Wanda said with a chuckle, understanding his discomfort at the thought. As while the Gods were weak in her eyes, they were immensely powerful in the Doctors. They were capable of destroying stars at their peak, with the Primordials likely having the power to destroy entire solar systems should they ever truly go all out, but it entirely mattered on which God and which Primordial.

In her eyes that was nothing, with only Khaos herself being a potential foe to her. But to The Doctor they could all kill him and his companion with a snap of their finger, well...probably.

"Now, I'll be taking these ones" The Doctor said, putting a stack of 13 books onto the counter, with Rose smiling and putting her 4 books on there as well, all of them being fictional books on romance, sci fi, and forbidden love.

Reading them, Wanda glanced between the two, before a smirk formed on her face.

'How cute! It's too bad what's going to happen. Although...perhaps I can fix that little issue?' Wanda thought, remembering that Rose would eventually be "banished" to another universe, never to return, not permanently at least. But, her shop was not bound to rules and laws, meaning...she should be able to allow Rose into the shop with the Doctor also being able to enter.

That or she just saves Rose from that fate.

Decisions decisions.

"And what of the exchange? I'd love to read more galifreyan! Your species truly is incredible" Wanda said genuinely. The time lords were by far the most impressive species she had ever met, with only three other species comparing in her eyes. These being...

The Celestials, The Monitors, and...The Beyonders.

Each of them were godlike in power, unlike the Timelord who simply were immensely intelligent and had incredible technology. The Beyonders and Monitors were amongst the few species in existence that posed a true, genuine threat to Wanda, with the former being able to obliterate the likes of the Living Tribunal...casually.

She was interested in meeting them, but that would be for later.

"Then you'll love these!" The Doctor said, grinning as he placed a large stack of books onto the table. All of them being Gallifreyan in nature, and being entirely new. Wanda's eyes sparkled upon realizing that there were books on the creation of a Tardis within, as well as books on more advanced sonic screwdrivers.

"...I certainly will" Wanda said with a smile, as she took them.

"You'll be able to buy another 3 books with all of this" Wanda added, as The Doctor looked to Rose and nodded, as she grinned and ran off, coming back a few minutes later with another 3 books in her hand. All of them being romance books.

"Good choices. Now, anything else you two need? I've got some new bakery goods I want to try out if you're interested" Wanda offered, as they shook their heads.

"No thanks, we just ate. A neat little place on Nathrack 4, known for it's lava cake that is made of edible lava" The Doctor replied, as she blinked, an idea coming to her mind.

"You know, if you come across some cookbooks on alien cuisines, I'd love to get them off of you. I'd love to spice up my menus a bit more" Wanda offered, as the man hummed.

"I've got a few ideas of places that'll have books like that. Next time we come around I'll bring a few" The Doctor said, as she grinned, pleased. As she had recently begun to enjoy cooking a lot as well, not as much as reading and books in general, but it was close.

Which is why she was thinking about making an official Cafe part of the store, making it into a true Cafe + Bookstore fusion.

"Great! Have a good day you two!" Wanda said, waving her friends off as they left the shop, leaving Wanda with Teekl, who slept on her lap, the usual for the cat.

Whereas Raven was sipping on her coffee in the corner, reading a book on Greek magic.

With that over and done with, Wanda grinned as she flipped the sign to closed, and looked to Raven, Teekl now sitting upon her shoulder.

"I'm gonna be out for a while. Don't have too much fun without me!~" Wanda said as she left the shop, Raven rolling her eyes in response, watching as her boss left. All the while, Wanda had only one thought on her mind, as she had a new idea she wanted to implement, and she needed a new employee in order to do so. And that thought was...

'...Time to find a Botanist!'
