The last ti Hector heard about Thanos was from the Galactic News portal, he was destroying so planet sowhere. All goofiness and warmth left Hector, he beca completely serious. There was a ti to joke, even on Hala and Sakaar he was having fun doing the mission because he knew he'd never die.
Thanos, however, was a mad titan, what made him even madder was the fact that he didn't dream to win over the Universe and be its ruler, rather he wanted to destroy half of it.
Thanos walked towards his stone throne and took a seat, "Co forth, human,"
Hector didn't budge, "Are you the ones selling those ships?"
Before Thanos could speak, one of the lieutenants of Thanos interjected, "Address my liege as lord, human."
Hector spat on the ground, "He's your lord and liege, not mine. And as far as respect is concerned, I am against any kind of monarchy and imperialism. I do not call anyone a lord. On the other hand, I do respect soone's designation. As such, I am the President of my Clan fleet and businesses. Now, are you the one selling those warships?"
Thanos stayed silent while looking at him calmly. Hector beca prepared to face the mad titan. He will call over the Skull Knight to keep others away. He might get a few punches in the face, but he won't let Thanos go unscathed. However, he did wonder sothing, ~Why does he have a smooth chin?~
There was a long silence, nobody spoke. Thanos, however, smiled all of a sudden, "All are free to retain their own beliefs, I prefer being a Lord and you prefer being a President. In the end, nothing matters as all roads lead to power.
"No, I am not the rchant of these ships, I care not for little money, I am rely the buyer who has decided to sell it to you now."
~What the heck is he saying?~ Hector wondered, "What do you an?"
"President Hector King Washington, a Terran, from a backwards civilisation that has not left its Solar System. You fooled Sakaar and now even dared to go against the Kree Empire. You intrigue , human." Thanos said.
~This fucker. How can I be so naive? The ga I'm trying to play, these guys have been playing for years. Thanos has probably infiltrated every faction in the Universe.~ Hector thought.
And now Hector also knew that the Kree Empire will soon find out about him. He needed to gain strength quickly, not just for himself, but for the whole Ravagers Syndicate.
Thanos smirked, "I admire the bravery and the strength to back it. You have shown both. So here I propose an offer, you can join my ranks as one of my commanders, prove to your worth and you shall get a place on my Black Order. Wealth, power and fa, all shall be in your palm."
~Oh, so this is a recruitnt drive.~ Hector relaxed a bit. If the purple ballsack saw him worthy of being useful then he would not try to kill him. It was counterproductive.
He looked around and saw a tal chair, he just raised his hand towards it and it ca flying. He sat down and crossed his legs. His shiny beard and hair fluttering, his red coat and many dals shining, he was looking badass. He decided to address him as Lord too, since he called him President, "You are a powerful man, Lord Thanos. Why would you need an average person like ? You have an army of millions, ships that can destroy worlds.
"As interesting as your proposal sounds, I will have to deny it. I am a person who values freedom above all else. If I join you, then I would be subservient, hence that's against my value-"
He stopped speaking all of a sudden and looked at the female alien standing beside Thanos, wearing a white and black bodysuit that defined her curves, there was also a cloak on her head. She had blue skin and red shining eyes with no iris. She had a body to die for and a face to cry for. ~That one... she's trying to read my mind. HAHA... foolish puny mortal,~
As soon as the female alien felt his gaze on her, she instinctively took a step back, because she felt as if she hit a strange wall outside Hector's mind and... behind the wall was sothing powerful... she only saw red eyes, but her feelings told she's no match for it.
She quickly whispered to Thanos, "My Liege, he's not ordinary, I could not enter his mind. There is more to him than what ets the eyes,"
Thanos glanced at Hector from the corner of his eyes, "Supergiant, even you can't read him?"
This was too unbelievable to him because he knew how strong she was. Supergiant had omnipathy, the ability to read and control the minds of people of any race. She could even control and eat the minds of people.
This just made Thanos more interested in Hector. ~How did a being from such a backward planet beco so strong? As far as I know, it's a planet of weaklings. I need to send my judges there.~
By now, most of the beings, no matter how powerful, or what empire's ruler they are, they'd be kneeling to him. But here, a Terran dared to stick to his own ideas. Seeing Hector won't be joining him, even after knowing how strong he was he felt so admiration. It was sothing he could respect, as he too was working for his ideals.
"It's a nice change to see beings not bowing at the sight of . You have earned my respect, President Washington. But I do have one question for you, then you are free to go.
"Suppose, if you had omnipotent power and could fix the problem of over depletion of resources from the Universe, would you use the power to snap and remove half the Universe's population randomly?" Thanos questioned.
~Is he still in the self-doubt phase?~ Hector wondered. So if there was a chance that Thanos was still doubting himself, then he'd say sothing that would make him doubt it more.
He acted like he was thinking for a long ti, scratching his beard and looking at the sky, then he spoke, "If I really had the power to make anything happen with a snap, then I wouldn't destroy half of the life in the Universe. Because that's just a temporary solution. A very destructive one, if I must say,"
Thanos interrupted, "Why? Won't that solve the overcrowding?"
Hector continued with his suggestion, "Well, let's just say, there is Planet A that has depleted all its resources and is now on the brink of total collapse. The quality of life has been destroyed, cris are at an all-ti high. Then you snap your finger and erase half of them.
"What has changed for the remaining half? Nothing! They still live on a planet with depleted resources. Not to ntionon any planetremoving half of the population would cause so many problems. There is a feeling called love, and when people lose their loved ones, they lose their minds.
"Violence will break out, governnts will break apart. And what about endangered species that only have one male and female left? So, my solution would be in two steps.
"One, use the snap to create five tis the resources for the Universe. Then use another snap to make all species across the Universe only able to have two perfectly healthy children per union. This way, you can ensure that prosperity remains and the population cos under control in a few years. Not much bloodshed either."
When he stopped, he found Thanos did have a different look on his face. He was looking at the ground silently and pondering over sothing. ~Indeed, just removing half of life once won't solve anything. The universe will one day be in the sa situation again. When that happens, I may not be here,~
He looked back at Hector, "Fair enough. Your answer pleases , President Washington. For this, I award you the ships you wanted."
"At what price?" Hector asked back.
At that, a thin ugly alien walked forward, letting Thanos leave silently and proudly, on his hovering throne, "I am Ebony Maw, son of my liege. He has rewarded you with 10 warships at no cost. Be mindful of this magnanimity of my liege, do not disrespect him the next ti you et. Leave now, Terran, before he changes his mind."
Hector was not pleased with the alien's attitude, he sneered and turned around to leave, ~Thanks, Thanos. I will use these sa ships to bring you down. I wonder what he will say while dying under the weight of my foot?~
[A/N: This is the movie Thanos. And honestly, to , he felt more cultured. Like he won't ever use curse language. He's a man with principles and he's ready to go any length for them, no matter how fucked up they are. He hasn't started gathering the stones yet here. He's a proud being and is not afraid to hold a philosophical conversation, as seen in Infinity War and Endga.]
