Syd extended his right hand, and in that instant, a deep crimson glow of Chaos Magic lit up around it.
Boom!
Amidst the stunned gazes of countless beings, a terrifying surge of Chaos Magic erupted!
The next second, even the panicking World Devourer and other cosmic entities couldn't help but freeze in astonishment.
They could feel itâthe universe's collapse... was stopping!
Inside the Time Variance Authorityâ
Patrick and the others, who had been excitedly awaiting the 616 universe's destruction, suddenly froze. Their expectant expressions turned stiff, their faces filled with disbelief.
"How is this possible?!"
They were completely stunned.
The collapse of the universe had actually stopped?
What did that white-robed man do? How could this happen?
They refused to believe it. The timeline had already been erasedâhow could the universe remain unaffected?
Then, all eyes locked onto Syd's right hand, and the crimson energy radiating outward.
"That's..."
"Did he rewrite the universe's reality?"
"He changed the logic that says: if the timeline collapses, the universe must collapse?"
How could something like this be possible?!
Mobius and the rest were utterly shaken.
Just then, they noticed something on their display screen: the time thread of the 616 universeâwhich had nearly vanishedâwas rapidly recovering!
This scene shocked them to the core.
They immediately began frantically operating the controls, trying to erase the 616 timeline again.
But to their horror, they discovered that their commands were no longer affecting the timeline at all.
"What... what's going on...?"
While panic and disbelief overtook themâ
Back in the 616 Universeâ
Drifting through the cosmos, the World Devourer sensed the universe's collapse halting, and couldn't help but exhale in relief.
Then, as he looked toward Earth and the dazzling white-robed figure hovering outside it, his face filled with wonder.
He could feel it clearly nowâsome of the universe's core logic had been altered.
This youngest brother of theirs... had rewritten reality?
"So this is his ability as a Creator God?"
"This kind of power... it's truly remarkable!"
The World Devourer was stunned.
He had once thought his little brother's powers were limited to controlling lightânothing too special. But now he saw that Syd could distort and rewrite the very fabric of reality itself?
That kind of power... was no joke!
"Was he trying to give us a surprise?"
"To think he hid such a terrifying ability from us?"
"If we hadn't found out now, we really would've been shocked when we met in a few days!"
The World Devourer smiled faintly to himself.
When they met up again, he planned to have Syd demonstrate this power for them in detailâjust to see it firsthand.
But clearly, Syd's surprise had been spoiled.
The other four cosmic entitiesâEternity, Infinity, Death, and Oblivionâwere thinking the same.
Thankfully, they had found out in advance. Otherwise, they'd truly have been floored.
Syd's planned surprise had completely backfired.
The four laughed to themselves.
Outside Earthâ
Looking over the now-stabilized universe, Syd withdrew his Chaos Magic-imbued right hand, without much surprise.
After all, when it came to altering reality, Chaos Magic had no issue handling this kind of situation.
Even if the logic was completely broken, Chaos Magic could simply rewrite it.
Now, thanks to the spell, the 616 universe's timeline had become... a mutation.
With the collapse crisis resolved, Syd turned his attention toward the Time Variance Authority.
"In a few hours... I'll deal with you."
Once he made further progress on mimicking God's abilities and unlocked another skillâgaining one more trump cardâhe would invade the TVA directly.
He was getting seriously fed up with those troublesome people. If not for Kang the Conqueror still being a wild variable, he'd have already crushed them long ago.
"Just as well... I'll use this time to visit Asgard."
Syd had made up his mind to head to Asgardâto help Thor and the others improve their strength.
After all, if they were too weak, they'd die at the drop of a hat, which would be troublesome to deal with.
If the TVA came knocking again, Thor and the rest wouldn't stand a chance.
With that thought, Syd's abstract divine body transformed into threads of light and vanished. A moment later, his physical divine body reappeared.
He waved his handâand a golden portal to Asgard opened.
With a flicker, his figure drifted through and appeared in the skies above the realm of the gods.
He hadn't tried to hide his presence, so Heimdall sensed him immediately.
After Heimdall's notification, Thor and the others quickly got the message.
Soon, they emerged from the palace and gathered in Asgard's grand plaza.
Gazing up at the white-robed figure in the sky, Thor shouted joyfully, "Brother, you've finally returned to Asgard!"
Beside him, Odin frowned slightly. "What's going on?"
Under everyone's watchful gaze, Syd slowly descended and calmly said, "I've come to enhance your powers."
Surprise spread across their faces.
"Enhance our powers?"
"How?"
Both Odin and Thor looked confused and curious.
Without explaining, Syd simply extended his right hand and activated his Creation Power.
Instantly, mysterious divine energy spread and flowed toward Odin.
The aging All-Fatherâwith white hair and a massive frame that had grown weakâsuddenly felt a divine, incomprehensible energy envelop him.
Under this divine power, every flaw and hidden wound in his body was healed, and his decaying flesh was replenished with vitality.
Odin's eyes widened in disbelief as he removed his golden eyepatch.
Thor and the others were stunned as they saw a new eye rapidly grow in Odin's left socket.
Even his once-white hair darkened into a rich black, and the wrinkles on his face faded awayâleaving behind a strong, youthful face.
In just a blink, he looked like a man in his early thirties again.
Seeing Odin's familiar, younger appearance, Frigga gasped in shock, her face filled with disbelief.
"Father?" Thor stood frozen beside her, completely dumbfounded.
Just moments ago, their father had been frail and agedâand now he was young again?
How was this even possible?
Thor turned to stare in awe at his floating, white-robed brother.
Thenâ
An overwhelming aura burst from Odin's rejuvenated body.
Now free of physical limitations, his power surgedâsurpassing even what it had been in his prime.
The godlike power of old... in the body of youth...
Feeling the divine strength coursing through him, Odin whispered in shock, "Such tremendous power..."
And just when he thought it was over, strands of familiar golden divine blood began to emerge inside his body.
