Starting as a Class Five Mutant-Chapter 486 -

Ebony Maw hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Not long ago, there was news that seven Celestials had descended upon Earth..."

Hearing this, Thanos' doubts were immediately put to rest. His eyes lit up with interest as he asked, "Were these Celestials after Messiah?"

"Is Messiah dead?"

As he spoke, a look of anticipation appeared on his face.

Every Celestial was a true god, possessing power far beyond that of mere mortals!

Facing seven of these beings, Messiah was undoubtedly doomed!

Just as this thought formed in his mind, Ebony Maw shook his head and said, "My lord, the Celestials did not find Messiah, so they directly confronted White Cloak."

Upon hearing this, Thanos' expression changed, and he asked gravely, "White Cloak is dead? Were the Infinity Stones taken by the Celestials?"

That would be truly bad news...

As Thanos frowned, Ebony Maw uttered something that left him utterly shocked.

"My lord, no, White Cloak is not dead. Instead, three of the Celestials were killed by him."

As Ebony Maw recounted how White Cloak had deconstructed everything within thousands of kilometers and erased both a black hole and three Celestials, even Thanos couldn't help but be stunned.

This was real?

White Cloak was already difficult to deal with, and now he had become even stronger?

For the first time, Thanos began to question everything. He even suspected that Ebony Maw was lying to him.

A mere Earthling had killed three Celestials...

No matter how he thought about it, it seemed impossible.

His expression grew solemn.

Meeting Eternity... must be accelerated!

Thinking back to when Stormbreaker and the Infinity Gauntlet were taken from him, Thanos felt a surge of unwillingness.

This setback had made his meeting with Eternity significantly more complicated.

If not for his alternative plans...

While Thanos was lost in thought, news of Earth's events began to spread across the universe.

...

The Wastelands

Hearing the news from Earth, the Collector, Tivan, was left utterly dumbfounded.

Messiah was already comparable to a Celestial—fine. But now, White Cloak had appeared, and he was even more terrifying, directly killing three Celestials?

Most shocking of all, Tivan actually knew this White Cloak!

Recalling the moment when White Cloak had descended upon the Wastelands and seized the Power Stone, Tivan found it unbelievable that White Cloak possessed such strength!

The more he thought about it, the more he doubted reality itself. Maybe he hadn't slept well and was still dreaming—how else could such absurd news be possible?

...

Another Galaxy

Star-Lord and his team had also heard the news.

"That's gotta be fake, right?"

"The news from Earth is getting more and more ridiculous," Star-Lord said, his mouth hanging open.

At this moment, Rocket was busy operating a high-tech console, analyzing the source of the information to determine its authenticity.

A short while later, he stopped and hesitated before saying, "Quill... this news doesn't seem fake..."

Hearing this, Star-Lord's eyes widened in disbelief.

This absurd story... was real?!

First, Messiah. Now, White Cloak?

At the same time, various factions across the universe were abuzz with discussion.

"How could a backwater planet like Earth produce such powerful beings?"

Many were left questioning reality itself. Some were in shock, while others couldn't help but feel an urge to visit Earth to see the truth with their own eyes.

Earth's Orbit

[Ability: Avatar of Light (460/500) Level 2]

"Almost there... I'm about to level up again."

Floating in space, Syd's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

As he patiently awaited the upgrade of his Avatar of Light ability, an event was unfolding in a dimly lit alley in New York City.

A rectangular, pale-yellow portal suddenly materialized.

Then, twelve people stepped out of the glowing gateway.

They were clad in black uniforms, their heads covered by black helmets. Among them were both Black and white individuals. The moment they stepped through the portal, they cautiously scanned their surroundings.

The leader, a tall, middle-aged Black woman, spoke in a wary tone, "So this is the place where the timeline deviation occurred?"

The other eleven members immediately started whispering among themselves.

"What happened here? Why is there an anomaly?"

"What caused it?"

"Is there a time criminal involved?"

Had the timeline not been disturbed, creating numerous branching timelines, they might never have traced the anomaly back to this location!

Even now, they hadn't been able to determine who was responsible for the temporal disturbance.

With no other options, the Time Variance Authority (TVA) had to send them to investigate.

Typically, resolving timeline anomalies required only a four-person squad. However, due to the strangeness of this case, the TVA had dispatched all twelve of them.

According to the legends within the TVA...

Long ago, a great multiversal war erupted. Countless timelines clashed, vying for dominance, and the conflict nearly led to total destruction.

It was at this moment that three omniscient and omnipotent Time Keepers emerged!

They merged all timelines into a single Sacred Timeline, restoring peace.

The Time Keepers safeguarded existence itself, ensuring the proper flow of time according to the Sacred Timeline.

But occasionally, anomalies would arise—people who deviated from the Sacred Timeline. Even the smallest changes, such as being late for work or purchasing an extra item, could create unpredictable consequences.

These individuals were variants, time criminals.

No matter the cause, deviating from the Sacred Timeline was a crime, leading to the birth of branching timelines. If not corrected, such disruptions could spiral into chaos, potentially igniting another multiversal war.

To prevent this, the Time Keepers created the Time Variance Authority. Whenever the TVA detected an anomaly, they would dispatch enforcers to intervene and restore order.

Their main objective today was to locate and either capture or eliminate the time criminal responsible, restoring the timeline to its proper course.

The leader of the team pulled out a device, intending to scan the internet for any unusual events.

And the moment she did—

"Oh my god, what is this?!"

Her eyes widened in shock, and she gasped aloud.

"What is it?"

The other agents turned toward her in confusion.

"You all need to see this," she said, still in disbelief.

The other eleven members quickly pulled out their own devices and started searching for news.

One by one, their faces mirrored her astonishment.

The headlines flashing before their eyes focused on two names—

Messiah?

White Cloak?

"Who the hell are these two?"
