Tony's protests went ignored once again.
Jarvis addressed Malrick calmly, "This ti, many employees have offered suggestions. Perhaps we cannot dismiss their opinions entirely."
"Of course, Young Master. Your strength is sufficient to resolve any problem," Jarvis continued. "But they are, after all, our employees. From a managent perspective, adopting their suggestions appropriately helps maintain organizational vitality."
Malrick nodded thoughtfully. "That is true. Their suggestions co from a sense of insecurity, not caused by us, but by the other Earths. Even though employees recruited from these worlds actively perform their missions and save lives together, knowing there are countless versions of themselves and their Earths scattered across the stars makes them uneasy."
Jarvis added, "As expected of the Young Master, an Abstract Entity—you possess profound insight."
Having grown in humanity, Jarvis now not only teased Tony but also praised Malrick. Tony, nearby, agreed with the sentint but resented being ignored. With a sour expression, he stepped between them.
"You two really can't see , can you, Jarvis?" Tony muttered to the sub-entity in his armor. "Tell your stubborn main body and your mischievous, never-growing-up Young Master that I'm going to find Pepper. I'll let her know there are two Helen Kellers from who knows where who can't even see their parent!"
Knowing Malrick and Jarvis were intentionally teasing him, Tony invoked his trump card—Pepper. As soon as he ntioned her and pretended to leave, both Malrick and Jarvis finally looked his way.
"Oh, Tony? When did you arrive at the TVA?" Malrick asked, placing a hand on Tony's shoulder.
Jarvis smiled. "Long ti no see, Sir. Everyone is on vacation. Are you still busy?"
Tony sneered. "The two blind princes won't continue pretending they can't see anyone, huh?"
Malrick turned him back toward the screen. "What do you an you can't see anyone? You just arrived."
Before Tony could retort, Malrick returned to the earlier discussion. "Jarvis and I were reviewing feedback from employees across various Earths. Seeing you here gives an idea, Tony. What do you think about creating a dinsion, like the Kamar-Taj Small World, to connect all Earths?"
He continued, "We could limit the number of visitors from each star system or set entry requirents. This would allow Earths to communicate freely without interfering with each other. It's a complex issue—your opinion?"
Tony's eyes lit up. Being asked for input by Malrick sparked a small surge of pride. He glanced at Malrick, realizing he truly expected his answer, and smiled. It had probably been years since Malrick had solicited his opinion. His increasingly capable younger brother had made him feel less involved, but now, the sense of contribution and achievent returned.
Folding his arms, Tony said, "When it cos to strategy, you still need a creative brain. Creating a dinsion is smart, but if it's only for communication, it won't fully satisfy…"
He elaborated his enhancents to Malrick's plan. Malrick quietly chuckled, giving Jarvis a thumbs-up. Jarvis returned the gesture with a smile.
The previous prank of ignoring Tony had been Malrick's idea. It was sparked by Tony's aggressive attitude, and the effect was perfect—Tony had even forgotten he had initially co to settle a score.
Far below, in the heart of the God-Kingdom Universe, Malrick's space dominated the center. Surrounding star systems glead brilliantly, and galaxies stretched across the cosmos like ribbons of fireflies.
Hundreds of billions of light-years beneath the God-Kingdom Universe, Malrick hovered, ready to construct the dinsional hub connecting all Earths. He had already discussed a feasible plan with Tony and Jarvis.
Ethereal under the starry expanse, Malrick gestured downward. Cosmic dust and scattered matter—iron, gold, hydrogen, remnants of supernovae—swirled together, gradually forming a massive landmass. Considering that inhabitants would arrive from countless worlds, Malrick made it vast beyond imagination.
He opened an inner-dinsion around it, mirroring the external Universe but with subtle modifications. Gravity was adjusted, and chanisms added to facilitate communication and interaction among Earths.
When the dinsion took shape, its central landmass asured over one light-year in length and width. In a standard Universe, its imnse mass would have collapsed into a black hole. Under Malrick's modifications, gravity remained Earth-like, and the landmass could endure indefinitely.
He molded stars to orbit the terrain and shaped climates, oceans, mountains, and even flowing magma. Life-sustaining conditions were in place—just as a god would create a world.
"That's sufficient. Cities and facilities can be built by the visitors from all Earths," Malrick said.
With the dinsion completed, he began connecting it to every existing Earth, bringing Tony and Jarvis along to refine its chanisms.
Two days later, the TVA's holiday ended. Employees prepared to resu missions across the Multiverse. At that mont, a notification popped up on their ti tablets:
"Do you want to experience communication with other worlds? Do you want to know the true aning of the Universe? Yes or No."
