34-Kree
I was advancing alongside a meteor, gazing into the depths of space. Judging by my estimations, my speed was equivalent to the speed of sound. If I turned into ashes and flew, I could be a bit faster, but flying long distances in ash form was exhausting.
Physically, I couldn't tire, but I sensed the dwindling flames within me.
According to my estimates, I had been in space for a month, encountering nothing so far. A few asteroids passed by, but none showed signs of life.
Time swiftly passed, and after ten months, I encountered a spacecraft. It looked quite old and was approximately the size of an apartment building.
They saw me before I approached, swiftly coming towards me. After getting a certain distance, a large weapon emerged from the top of the spacecraft, aiming at me.
The spacecraft's door opened, and three individuals with weapons in their hands stepped out. They wore suits that, by my estimation, allowed them to breathe in space.
They rapidly approached me, pointing their weapons at me and saying something in a language I couldn't understand.
[A new language detected and added to the system]
When this system notification appeared in front of me, information flooded my mind. I quickly grasped it and understood what they were about.
"I told you to raise your hands!"
One of the men in front of me yelled. Their skin was blue, and they looked quite angry.
"What will you do if I don't raise my hands?" I asked, smiling.
Without saying anything, they fired at me. Red lasers shot from their weapons and quickly hit me.
When the lasers touched me, I felt an extreme heat. If I were in human form, these weapons could have harmed me, but I was currently in the form of a fire giant.

As the lasers touched me, they disappeared as if absorbed by my body.
"Tastes quite good, is there more?"
After a moment of shock, the men quickly regained composure and shot at me, moving towards their spaceship.
Each time the lasers touched my body, they rapidly vanished. I could clearly feel that with each absorption, the flames within me grew.
Though the growth was less than when absorbing a planetary core, I was still getting stronger.
When the men entered the spaceship, a large weapon on the spacecraft shot a laser at me.
The laser was powerful, shattering the asteroid I was sitting on when it hit me.
Since it was quite potent, it took me some time to absorb it. After absorbing the laser, I turned my body into ashes and moved toward the spaceship.
When I reached the spaceship's door, the ashes merged to form my body. I placed my hand on the spaceship's door, and ten seconds later, the door turned into magma, creating a hole for me to pass through.
After entering through the hole, I controlled the magma and ensured the opening closed.
After entering, about ten people aimed their weapons at me and opened fire. The lasers they fired not only failed to harm me but actually strengthened me. I raised my hand and clenched my fist, causing the men to levitate and their bodies to crumble into a ball.
Having defeated them, I continued forward. As I progressed through the spaceship, I melted every door that stood in my way.
Encountering another door inside the spaceship, larger than the previous ones, I remarked, "I guess it leads to the control room," placing my hand on top of it. The door melted within seconds, revealing what lay behind.
Many people awaited me behind the door. Before they could use their weapons, I used telekinesis to bury them in the floor. They couldn't lift their heads, so I walked through them and stood in their midst.
"I will ask questions, and you will answer," I declared.
Upon hearing my words, a few hurled insults at me. I waved my hand, killing them.
"This is what happens if you shout," I stated. Afterward, none dared to speak without my prompting.
"Who are you?" I inquired.
"We are from the Kree Empire! If you don't let us go, the Empire will kill you!" shouted a blue-skinned man.
I waved my hand, turning him into a crushed mass.
"If you yell, this happens," I said.
I proceeded to ask them various questions. According to their responses, they were from the Kree Empire and were heading to a nearby planet.
It seemed that the Kree Empire was rapidly gaining power by exploiting other planets. They were technologically advanced and highly populated.
When I asked about the location of Earth, they claimed to have never heard of it before. I killed all the Kree except those operating the spaceship.
"Go to the nearest planet controlled by the Kree Empire," I commanded.
After some hesitation, they directed the spaceship as I instructed.
The reason for my journey to the Kree Empire was the system notification I encountered.
