Amy’s pupils trembled, leaning hopelessly against the wall.
The two officers showed no expression, thodical in their actions.
Wanda’s pupils contracted, her expression shocked.
Wait a minute.
What are these officers called?
Glenn Chris?
George Jefferson?
The first na doesn’t matter, but the last one, is the na wrong?
Shouldn’t it be George Stacy?
Wanda furrowed her brows.
Before Gwen left this cosmos, Gwen had dragged her around for several days, shopping together and sharing many things.
The bond between Gwen and Hawk existed since the day they were born.
Though this bond wasn’t a particularly good one, it’s undeniable that George Stacy was one of the officers who had inford Hawk about the death of his biological father, Andrew Chloe.
But now, although the ssenger is George, it’s not George Stacy anymore.
So—
Where did George Stacy go?
Wanda’s heart stirred, and at the mont she turned, she had already disappeared from her place, appearing in every corner of Hawk’s tiline, only to find, shockingly, George Stacy was gone.
To be precise, it seems as though George Stacy had never existed.
Similarly.
If George Stacy never existed, then naturally, Gwen Stacy also never existed, which is why Wanda discovered she had eliminated every Apocalypse on Hawk’s sacred tiline, yet Hawk’s sacred tiline was still collapsing.
Because Gwen perates Hawk’s past.
If the past doesn’t exist, then there’s no future to speak of.
"What’s going on?"
"Just as you see."
Death’s voice appeared beside Wanda’s ear, cold yet alluring.
Wanda followed the direction of the voice and then saw Death quietly appearing before her.
"Can you still appear here?"
"Of course."
Death’s voice was calm: "As long as there is life within the Main Multiverse, I can appear at their side monts before they die, Hawk included, after all, he hasn’t transcended this cosmos yet."
Wanda furrowed her brows, then thought of ’Gwen’ who had disappeared from Hawk’s tiline!
"Did Apocalypse kill Gwen?"
"No."
Death smiled, shaking her head: "To be precise, you killed Gwen."
Wanda’s pupils contracted.
"What?"
"Hawk’s tiline has undergone two contractions."
"First, he used the ’Ti Gemstone’ to contract his tiline, and in that contracted tiline, Gwen existed."
Death waved her right hand in the air, two pure gold tilines appeared, then she pointed at one of them: "But this tiline was contracted using the ’Ti Gemstone’, naturally, this tiline was also rife with endless loopholes that could be exploited by ti. Apocalypse, too, used these endless loopholes to enter Hawk’s contracted tiline, attempting to kill all that is Hawk."
Speaking.
She pointed at the second tiline with her right hand.
"This tiline is another one."
"A tiline birthed by the union of fire ignited by the cosmos’s first life and the cosmos’s most improbable life, devoid of any loopholes."
"Your existence perates all of Hawk’s tilines."
"Every mont."
"Every corner."
"Every instant."
"But!"
"There is an issue among them!"
"Hawk has already contracted his tiline, solidifying his past."
"Questioning Hawk’s past is questioning Hawk’s future."
"Denying his past is denying his future."
"So—"
"No past, no future!"
Death’s voice lingered as Wanda watched, removing ’Gwen’ from this flawless sacred tiline, after which this newly born flawless sacred tiline faced an unprecedented collapse.
One could say, birth is death!
Wanda listened to Death’s explanation, her brows furrowed: "But I never intended for Gwen to disappear."
Death watched Wanda with a smile but said nothing.
Wanda and Death’s pupils, shining with the white flas of the soul, t.
Their gazes locked.
There was no trace of avoidance in Wanda’s eyes.
She was not guilty.
Because she had never had the idea of replacing Gwen.
After all—
"Hawk, you really are not a good person."
Just like the words she said to Hawk when she intruded into Hawk’s Ti Galaxy.
Clearly.
Hawk had already guessed why she would appear there when he was in the 616 Cosmos.
But he didn’t say anything, even to so extent, he let all this happen for the sake of becoming stronger.
Just like when Hawk was plundering the World Tree, he also foresaw that while plundering the World Tree, Gwen would be forced to separate from him.
But Hawk still went to plunder the World Tree.
Although Hawk was encouraged by Gwen at that ti, ultimately, if Hawk didn’t want to go, no matter how much Gwen said, he wouldn’t go.
So!
Hawk may be a person, but he is not a good person!
But just like the words Wanda followed up with.
Hawk might not be a good person.
But he is the father of her children, which is why Wanda wants to save Hawk.
Wanda calmly ets Death’s gaze.
Death smiles slightly, still silent, extends his right hand, and once again points at the tiline that Hawk shrunk using the ’Ti Gemstone.’
Wanda first freezes, then reacts to Death’s silent smile.
"You an ti."
"What else?"
Death smiles as she looks at Wanda, whose expression has seen the reaction: "The ti that Hawk shrunk using the Ti Gemstone, in essence, his constant past is still the past of the Main Multiverse, so, what did you think I was saying, that you, out of jealousy for Gwen, made Gwen disappear?"
Wanda’s eyes narrow.
"I didn’t, I’m not, don’t say that, he’s not a good person."
"Haha."
Death crossed her arms, fingers pointing at her chin, the corner of her mouth curving into a playful arc as she looked at Wanda: "You know, you’re just like Hawk, you say this, but your soul, tsk tsk tsk."
Wanda frowned.
"Hawk’s soul?"
"Want to know, promise one thing."
"What?"
"Give a piece of your soul."
Death said with a smile: "Anyway, your soul is scattered into millions of pieces now, give one piece, I had a bit of a spat with my girlfriend, I plan to play a bit of hero saving the damsel."
Hero saves the damsel?
Wanda listens to Death’s words, not knowing why, but feeling like her mouth wants to twitch.
Death looks at Wanda’s expression: "Oh, not just your soul, Hawk’s soul too, just as you two match together, perfectly enhancing the prelude to my ’hero saving the damsel’ act."
Wanda finally can’t help it, the corners of her mouth twitch uncontrollably a few tis.
However...
"Hawk agreed to give it to you?"
"He owes a favor."
"...Alright."
Upon hearing this, Wanda thought for a mont, then looked at Death: "I don’t need to know what Hawk’s soul is thinking, I don’t care, you just need to tell how to stabilize his tiline."
Even though Hawk isn’t a good person.
But Hawk’s credibility has always been solid.
For instance, when Hawk says to kill his entire family, he kills his entire family, not even sparing the graves.
Moreover, the favors Hawk owes, as long as they don’t involve his own interest conflicts, Hawk will fulfill his promises.
The most important point.
Hawk isn’t a good person, he’s a self-centered individual, if giving his soul to Death would harm Hawk, he certainly would not agree to Death’s terms.
In other words, since Hawk agreed to Death, it ans this matter poses no real threat.
But even if there is a danger, it’s alright.
Anyway, my soul has already penetrated Hawk’s tiline, simply put, Hawk can be reborn through Nirvana with the Universe’s original Fire of Life, and I can achieve eternal life through the most unlikely Fire of Life in the Cosmos, borrowing Hawk’s Nirvana Fire.
Wanda thought to herself.
Death smiled slightly.
"So, we’ve reached a deal?"
"Yes."
Wanda nodded: "Now tell how to stabilize Hawk’s tiline."
Death’s smile was brilliant.
"Very simple."
"Gwen’s existence, exists within the ti of the Main Multiverse."
"On the flawless tiline you forged with the fla ignited by the most improbable life, it’s the tiline of just you and Hawk."
"But Hawk’s past is already fixed."
"Actually, I don’t need to tell you, you should already know what to do."
"After all..."
"These are all things that have already happened, right?"
Death’s voice sounded eerily.
Wanda lowered her eyes, contemplating the words, then seeming to have thought of sothing, she lifted her gaze, just about to look at Death when she realized he had already disappeared.
I know what to do.
These are all things that have already happened.
Wanda’s mind echoed these words, her brows furrowing tighter, as she reappeared on Hawk’s golden fluid-like, just-born, collapsing Ti Galaxy.
Her gaze flickered.
Not knowing how long it had passed, almost at the mont when the golden Ti Galaxy beneath her feet was about to collapse, Wanda seed to think of sothing, her pupils flashed with ’incredulity’ and ’so that’s how it is,’ she stepped once again into Hawk’s Ti Galaxy.
"Hello, Hawk."
"Hello, you are..."
"Gwen Stacy, call Gwen, I’m the ninth-grade student assistant, if you have any questions, feel free to ask ."
"...Alright, thank you."
"You’re welco."
"Hawk!"
"Gwen? How did you find ?"
"Guess."
"Hawk."
"Hmm?"
"I know you don’t want to be a good person, but please try to be a kind person."
"Hawk."
"Hmm?"
"You should go retrieve the World Tree, no matter if it will temporarily take away from you."
"Because compromise is either zero tis or countless tis."
"Don’t let it think it can control you, even if it uses to threaten you."
