Starting as a Class Five Mutant Chapter 655

[1100PS!!]

Syd gently floated down and asked calmly,

"Sothing you need?"

Staring at the glowing child who appeared no older than a few years, Diana — Wonder Woman — was more shocked than ever.

After a long pause, she finally spoke,

"You're a god, aren't you?"

"Thank you... for reviving countless people. For stopping the war... for ending Ares' sche."

Syd didn't confirm or deny it.

After offering her thanks, Diana hesitated and then said cautiously,

"But... why does it feel like you're playing with humanity?"

Despite his miraculous deeds, there was sothing unnerving about him — a terrifying feeling she couldn't shake.

Almost like... he was toying with mankind.

Syd raised a brow slightly in surprise and replied,

"Diana, didn't you leave Themyscira to stop Ares and create a world without war?"

"A world without death — one where no one ever dies from war again — isn't that a good thing?"

Diana froze.

"How do you know that...?" she asked, dumbfounded.

Syd didn't answer.

Before leaving Themyscira, she had believed that if she could just stop Ares, war would vanish from the world.

But after spending ti in man's world, she realized... even without Ares, humans would still wage war.

Then Syd spoke again, this ti with intrigue,

"I can help you. If I wanted, this world would never see another death."

In that mont, both Diana and the hidden Ares felt a chilling dread.

It sounded right, but... was a world without death really a good thing?

Diana increasingly felt like this being wasn't just powerful — he was playing with life itself.

Syd heard her thoughts and chuckled.

"A world without death — isn't it beautiful?"

"You think I'm toying with humanity? Oh? So what if I am?"

Smiling arrogantly, he said,

"If I want to do sothing, I can. No one can stop ."

"Can you stop ?"

As he said this, Syd looked into the future.

And just as he expected — in the future, Batman (Bruce Wayne) had investigated him and developed various counterasures.

Bruce — ever the paranoid strategist — trusted no one. Not Superman, not even himself. He always kept contingency plans for everyone.

Syd didn't exist in the tiline beyond the present, but the actions he took echoed into the future. The world knew about him.

So doubted it. Others believed. The Church, in particular, proclaid that the ssiah had returned.

Bruce Wayne, after confirming the ssiah's existence, began crafting every possible counterasure he could imagine — just in case Syd ever reappeared and went rogue.

Syd found it amusing.

He even saw Bruce discussing his plans during a Justice League eting, trying to figure out how to respond if the "ssiah" returned.

"Is he really that dangerous?" Superman asked.

At this point, Syd lost interest in watching.

His voice suddenly echoed in their ears — calm, cold, and omnipresent.

"You're preparing to deal with ?"

The voice — with no identifiable source — made every hero's expression shift drastically.

Before they could locate the source, an image appeared before them.

At the sa mont—

Back on the battlefield, Diana and Ares were stunned to see several figures appear in the air before them.

The two sides locked eyes.

Diana was shocked — among those figures, she saw... herself?

Past Diana and future Diana... staring at each other.

Then—

From the future, Bruce Wayne looked at the glowing child in the sky and said gravely,

"You're... the ssiah?"

Everyone's gaze locked onto Syd.

He didn't answer — just smiled curiously,

"I heard... you're preparing to deal with ?"

Bruce hesitated, then nodded solemnly. He didn't try to deny it.

Syd stared at him, eyes glinting with interest.

"To stop ? With the counterasures you imagined?"

Bruce's expression didn't change.

"Everyone has a weakness. Even gods. You're no exception."

As he spoke, his gaze flicked briefly toward Superman.

"And what if I have none?" Syd asked, intrigued.

"Impossible," Bruce replied, unwavering.

"Really?" Syd's smile deepened.

Then — he decided to show them what true omniscience and omnipotence ant.

What to begin with? Ah — the Infinity Stones' powers would do.

In the next second, Diana, Ares, Bruce, and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

Syd spoke slowly—

"Ti..."

The world shimred.

They watched ti reverse, seeing the past replay before their eyes. Then, ti fast-forwarded, showing glimpses of the future.

Not just one future — many. Diverging tilines, alternate outcos... all unfolded before their eyes.

Then the voice continued—

"Space..."

Reality twisted. Space bent and warped.

They saw the solar system... the Milky Way... the entire universe.

Syd raised a hand — and the entire DC Universe shrank into a radiant marble spinning in his palm.

Ares and the others were stunned speechless.

The voice rang out again—

"Mind..."

The scenery stabilized.

Then suddenly — a flood of countless overlapping thoughts surged into their minds.

The thoughts and mories of all living beings in the universe were made audible. Everyone's secrets — gods and mortals alike — were laid bare.

They knew instantly what every being was thinking.

"Soul..."

They watched as Syd reached forward — and the souls of countless beings were pulled forth.

Gods, mortals — it didn't matter. Their souls were grasped, altered, destroyed, then restored.

And everyone felt it happen. With perfect clarity. That mont of deletion... and rebirth.

"Power..."

Bruce and the others were stunned.

They saw mystical forces of every kind swirling around Syd's hands.

He casually lifted two fingers — and pinched the marble-sized DC Universe between them.

With a faint crack, space around them began to collapse.

It looked like the end of everything.

"Reality..."

The apocalyptic scene twisted and vanished — everything returned to normal.

As if the destroyed reality a mont ago was fake — and this was real.

Then the world transford again.

They watched as the entire universe turned into a comic book — themselves included.

Ares and the rest looked down and realized they were now drawings, cartoon characters, 2D beings.

"Fate..."

Invisible threads of destiny stretched across the cosmos, linking all life.

Diana and the others watched as Syd manipulated those strings — pulling, binding, controlling.

All of existence beca puppets on his hand.

Then ca the final, crushing words that would break Bruce Wayne's resolve—
