The mont lightning engulfed Diana, a golden glow burst from her body.
It blazed like sunlight piercing through storm clouds, cutting through the lightning and flooding the entire cavern with divine brilliance.
"Ah… AHHHH!"
Diana's roar echoed like thunder, her voice shattering unseen barriers within herself.
The light intensified—rising, swelling, burning brighter—until her entire form was consud by a radiant, sacred gold, an angel descending from the heavens.
As the golden light enveloped her, the roar lted into a clear, resonant cry.
It was the cry of freedom—like a bird spreading its wings for the first ti, breaking from its cage, soaring into the endless sky.
Diana floated weightlessly in midair, her body surrounded by waves of divine energy.
Slowly, the light dimd, revealing her transford figure.
Her Amazon armor had changed completely.
The red and blue divine suit was now a deep, dark gold from headpiece to greaves, shimring as if molten light flowed through every line.
She raised an arm, and the cape behind her flared dramatically in the wind.
Landing gracefully, she smiled at Malrick. The faint curve of her lips was enough to brighten the entire chamber once more.
The Old Wizard turned back, eyes wide with awe. His voice trembled with reverence.
"She has beco… a true god."
Malrick blinked, montarily speechless. Then his trademark sarcasm slipped out.
"That armor looks familiar. Diana, did you just turn into a Saint Seiya?"
"Saint Seiya?" she asked, tilting her head. "That sounds like a high complint for a warrior. Are you praising ?"
Malrick stroked his chin. "Of course it's a complint. You look amazing—and your strength has clearly leveled up."
Diana nodded calmly.
"A portion of Zeus's divine power rged with mine. It completed what I was missing—I've evolved from a demigod into a true god."
But even as she said it, her expression remained serene.
Whether demigod or full deity, she was still Diana. Her duty—to protect humanity—would never change.
Shazam, however, didn't look pleased. His brow furrowed deeply.
"So, you're Zeus's daughter…" he muttered through clenched teeth.
The Old Wizard's divine powers were stolen long ago—from the gods themselves. Those sa deities were now sealed away, unable to enter the mortal world.
And now, by a twist of fate, that very power had returned to Zeus's bloodline.
If it had been anyone else, he wouldn't have cared.
But Zeus's daughter? That was another matter entirely.
Shazam's tone grew stern, echoing through the chamber.
"Even though you've beco a true god, rember—this divine power originates from him." He pointed at Malrick.
"If he takes it back, your power will fade. You won't beco mortal, but you will weaken. So don't ever betray humanity."
Diana's eyes narrowed. She understood his warning, but being questioned about her loyalty left a bitter taste.
"My duty as an Amazon is to protect mankind," she said, her voice firm. "You may doubt , Wizard, but one day you'll see you were wrong."
Shazam could sense truth as easily as breath—and there was not a hint of falsehood in her words.
His expression softened slightly. "Amazon… I should have known."
He had heard her ntion it earlier but hadn't paid it any mind. Now it made perfect sense.
"Relax, Old Man," Malrick said with a grin. "Even if humanity betrays the Earth, Diana won't betray humanity. I'd stake my life on that."
He turned to Kara, who had been silently watching the transformation with envy.
"So, Diana's a literal goddess now. What about you, Kara? How do you feel?"
Kara tore her gaze away from Diana and frowned down at her own attire.
"I think this outfit is ugly. Can I change back by just saying 'Shazam'?"
Boom!
A flash of lightning answered her question. In an instant, her battle suit reverted to her Kryptonian armor.
Malrick chuckled. "Guess I'm not the only one who finds that suit weird. But seriously—any change in your strength?"
Kara hesitated, then spoke the word again. "Shazam."
The lightning returned, her suit glowing sapphire-blue once more. She clenched her fists.
"My strength feels the sa, but… I'm not losing energy. Even without sunlight, I feel stable—no weakness at all."
Malrick raised an eyebrow. "So, divine power gave you infinite endurance. That's… perfect for you."
Kara frowned. "Why do you say that?"
Instead of answering, Malrick opened a small nanotech case in his hand.
With a tap, the material dissolved into dust, revealing a small shard of glowing green crystal.
Kara's eyes widened. "Kryptonite…"
"Exactly." Malrick held it up. "It weakens your kind—and can kill you outright. But my body's been modified so I'm immune. I want to see how your divine power handles it."
He took her hand and placed the shard in her palm.
Instantly, pain flickered across her face. Cold sweat ford on her brow, her breathing tightening.
Yet she didn't collapse.
Her hand trembled, but her grip didn't falter. Her spine stayed straight, her eyes sharp with determination.
"I… I can feel my power draining," she gritted out. "Fast."
"How fast?" Malrick asked.
"A few hours, maybe—I'd be powerless."
"Try using your divine power."
Her eyes widened as she rembered—and summoned the divine energy within her.
At once, the weakness faded. Her breathing steadied, and the drain slowed drastically.
"It's working!" Kara said, relief flooding her face. A small, genuine smile tugged at her lips.
She floated upward, hovering gracefully—still holding the Kryptonite.
Malrick blinked in surprise. "Well, I'll be damned."
Supergirl, holding Kryptonite, still flying—that was new.
Her resistance was now on par with the strongest versions of Superman himself.
"Excellent," Malrick murmured, impressed. "This divine power… it's better than I thought."
It had strengthened Diana, made Kara nearly invulnerable—and could be sustained indefinitely.
Even if he brought it back to the Marvel universe, it wouldn't fade.
It was, in short, perfect.
Then a new idea struck him.
What if I shared this with Tony?
Imagine Tony Stark blessed with Solomon's Wisdom…
Malrick smirked. "Could be interesting." He filed that thought away for later.
He turned back to thank the Old Wizard—
—but before he could speak, the ground trembled.
The entire world began to crack apart.
From the upper atmosphere to the Earth's core, everything fractured into countless crystalline shards, each dissolving into a black void beyond ti.
Reality itself was collapsing like glass under pressure.
Malrick's pupils narrowed. "The world restart—it's ending!"
Without hesitation, he raised his hand, pulling Diana and Kara back into his inner world for safety.
"See you after the reset, Old Man! I'll find you a new successor later!"
He prepared to trigger his dinsional crossing ability.
He had plans—to et Superman with Kara, to bring comfort to Diana's people, and finally, to help Barry reunite with his mother.
But just as the teleportation sequence began, a voice bood behind him.
"Don't you dare run off, kid!"
Shazam lunged forward, clutching Malrick in a bear hug.
"What the hell—shouldn't you be turning into light dust and ascending or sothing?" Malrick shouted.
The Old Wizard's beard bristled as he barked back, "The sea of the new world still has room for this old ship! You're not leaving behind! I gave you divine power to fight Darkseid soday!"
Malrick groaned. "So you're tagging along as my supervisor now? Wait—fight Darkseid? Since when was that my job?"
"Shazam's duty is to protect humanity. If you won't fight, who will?!"
"Darkseid doesn't need fighting—Flash can just restart the tiline again! Let go!"
"And if Flash dies?"
"He won't—oh for the love of—fine! Fine! I'll take you with ! Just stop rubbing beard oil on my waist!"
"Then move, boy! Space itself is tearing apart!"
As the Eternal Rock was consud by the collapsing dinsion, the two vanished in a flash of light—leaving the DCEU behind.
