A high-definition holographic projection appeared before them.
The image was presented from a god's-eye perspective, capturing both Lloyd and his surroundings in perfect clarity.
The four could clearly see Lloyd stepping into the yellow ti portal, arriving in what seed to be a relatively quiet street.
As he cautiously explored his surroundings, Lloyd constantly glanced around, remaining on high alert.
"From the looks of it, everything seems normal. There shouldn't be any danger, right?" Trish muttered in confusion.
"That's what it looks like. So what exactly happened to Lloyd?"
Jason and the others were puzzled, unable to understand how Lloyd could have encountered any danger.
Just as they were thinking about this, an unexpected change occurred.
Before their shocked eyes, deep crimson energy began seeping out from every corner of the surroundings, rapidly enveloping everything—including Lloyd himself.
In an instant, his body began flickering, distorting like static on a black-and-white television. He beca semi-transparent, as if on the verge of vanishing.
Lloyd, too, noticed the change, and his expression twisted into sheer terror.
"What's happening to ?!"
"What is this?!"
Panic-stricken, he frantically tried to stabilize himself—patting his body, moving around—but nothing worked. The bizarre phenonon did not stop.
Could it be that Fury was telling the truth?!
Fear consud Lloyd's face as he turned and bolted toward the ti portal. But it was already too late.
In a desperate move, he grabbed the recording device from his waist and hurled it toward the portal.
In the final monts of the recording, they could clearly see Lloyd's body twist under the influence of the crimson energy—then, in an instant, he was gone.
And then, before Fury and the others, the scene was completely engulfed in deep crimson light, as though the entire world had been rewritten.
It was as if the crimson energy was restoring everything to a previous state, correcting reality itself.
As the recording device flew into the yellow portal, the unfamiliar scene disappeared, replaced by the familiar view of their own ti.
Nick Fury and the other four appeared within the footage.
Although they hadn't witnessed what happened after, it was obvious that the crimson energy had reached the portal, erasing it—causing the corresponding portal on their end to collapse as well.
When the video ended and they finally grasped the situation, Trish and the others felt their breath hitch.
"What is this...?"
The three Ti Variance Authority agents were left in utter shock.
What kind of power was this?
As they stood frozen in disbelief, Nick Fury's eyes widened in realization.
"Reality correction... So it's real?"
"What?"
Trish and the others turned toward him, confused.
"Director Fury, what are you talking about?" Trish asked, frowning.
Fury took a deep breath and explained, "I told you—soone has tried altering the past before..."
"A mysterious female sorcerer once said that the White-Clad Hero corrected past realities. I always thought it was a lie."
But now, after seeing the footage firsthand...
Fury was stunned.
"I can't believe it's true!"
"The White-Clad Hero's power is so terrifying that he can influence the past without even being there?"
He murmured, dazed.
At his words, Trish and the others exchanged glances, unable to comprehend what they had just witnessed.
Could this power really be coming from the White-Clad Hero?
Was Nick Fury actually telling the truth?
Before Lloyd had entered the ti portal, they had secretly laughed at Nick Fury, dismissing him as an inexperienced fool who didn't understand the absurdity of his own claims.
Lloyd's mocking words still echoed in their minds.
But now...
Having seen what happened to Lloyd with their own eyes, even if they wanted to deny it, they couldn't.
"I've never seen a ti fugitive with such terrifying power," Trish murmured.
"I think... we're in trouble. This White-Clad Hero is far beyond what we can handle. We need to report this to headquarters imdiately and let them take care of it!"
Then, recalling Lloyd's fate, her face paled.
"Wait—no, this is bad! The White-Clad Hero might have already noticed us!"
She quickly pulled out her Ti Controller and opened a portal leading to the Ti Variance Authority.
Jason and the other agent beside him were visibly shaken.
Since joining the Ti Variance Authority, they had rarely felt fear—but this ti was different.
The re thought of the White-Clad Hero's arrival filled them with overwhelming panic.
Nick Fury, anwhile, narrowed his eyes as he observed the strange ti portal, as well as Trish and her teammates.
What was he thinking?
As the Ti Variance Authority agents scrambled, far away in Earth's orbit, Syd Castell had already sensed the anomaly.
Arriving at the location where Lloyd and the others had first appeared, he found nothing.
Frowning slightly, he extended his senses further—before imdiately heading toward S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.
The Ti Variance Authority again... What a nuisance.
As for what had happened to Lloyd, he wasn't entirely sure.
During the Delia incident, when Chaos Magic ran out of control, he had noticed that past realities had been corrected—the mysterious woman had been erased, and a warning had been left behind. But beyond that, he didn't know the full details.
When Chaos Magic went haywire, he had simply acted based on instinct—he didn't like past realities being altered.
As for what the Chaos Magic actually did, what had happened at that ti, or what the situation was now—he had no clue.
If he had known, he wouldn't have let the Chaos Magic go out of control in the first place.
At that mont, he arrived at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters—right as Trish was opening the ti portal.
"The White-Clad Hero?!"
"Why is he here?!"
S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were left dumbfounded.
Before they could panic, Syd frowned slightly. Sensing the strange temporal fluctuations, his figure vanished in a flash—reappearing inside Nick Fury's office.
His gaze swept across the stunned Nick Fury and the three Ti Variance Authority agents, who were just about to step into the portal.
With a calm tone, he asked,
"Where do you think you're going?"
His voice echoed through the office, sending chills down Trish and the others' spines.
"It's the Ti Fugitive—the White-Clad Hero! Run!"
Without hesitation, Trish bolted for the yellow portal.
Jason and the other agent followed closely behind.
