Ana, Carol, Ophelia and Monica arrived with Damian and Tony as they finished eliminating the ships.

Mónica had a joyful smile as she had managed to eliminate the last spaceship.

With the sea nearby, she had a great advantage; she only created thousands of water spears before sending them against the spaceship.

"Hello Tony, tell me, how many elves did you eliminate in those big attacks you made?" Carol asked, mocking.

''Why don't you light up so the soldiers can see and clear the battlefield?" said Tony mockingly.

Carol just smiled annoyed before giving him the middle finger.

"Anyway, thanks for coming to help... I guess," Damian said, slightly curving his lips.

"You know what? Screw this, I'm never coming to help you again. Help me get home quickly; I left Jarvis to take care of Morgan," Tony said angrily.

Damian chuckled before making Tony appear at his home in New York.

"All right, let's go back; the others will take care of everything," Damian said to the others.

"Hm, surely now I'll become more popular than my cute cosmic battery," Ophelia said, smiling at Carol.

"Do you think I won't dare to hit you?" Carol said, looking at her, her eyes and hair glowing menacingly.

Damian just chuckled as he watched them bicker before shaking his head and returning to the laboratory where the scientist had already tied up the cursed elf.

"What are you doing?" Damian casually asked as he approached him.

"I'm just analyzing how his body changed," the scientist said, reviewing the data.

"It's a shame we couldn't find out what caused his changes."

"I know it's a stone, although I don't know how they obtained it. It's probably impossible to get it again, you know, these guys existed before this universe," Damian said, shrugging.

"Let's hope everything returns to normal tomorrow. I don't want my daughters to miss school now that they're so excited," Damian said.

"Hm, we just need to clear the debris from the city; some buildings were damaged, and there are many half-destroyed ships throughout the city," the scientist nodded.

"I'll go check on Cortana," Damian said, nodding before appearing with his servers.

"Hello," Damian greeted.

"Master," Cortana greeted cheerfully.

"The day has come," Damian said, showing the reality stone.

"Yes, but Master, are you sure we should do it? It won't be easy, and we don't know what might happen in the process," Cortana said, clearly hesitating.

"Besides, it's likely to take quite some time to set up the system to envelop the Earth, and Master, you'll have to be there all the time if you want to have maximum administrator permissions," Cortana added.

"Yes, that's problematic. My daughters won't be happy," Damian sighed.

"Do you have everything ready?" Damian asked, looking at her.

"Yes, I researched a lot about games and novels. By the way, shouldn't they be able to gain experience by killing something?" Cortana asked.

"We would only encourage the living beings on the planet to kill each other. It's not a very good idea. Maybe we could implement it later when everything is more stable," Damian said, shaking his head.

"I guess so, there would be a lot of chaos," Cortana said, realizing and nodding.

"I'm a little excited," Cortana said, laughing to herself.

Damian smiled slightly, looking at Cortana.

"Master, don't forget about my body," Cortana suddenly said.

"Hm, I'll take care of that. Prepare everything; I'll try to explain to my daughters that I'm leaving," Damian said, sighing before disappearing.

Damian took advantage of the fact that it was night to infiltrate Wakanda and steal some Vibranium.

With that done, he returned home and went to bed.

The next day.

Everyone woke up and went down for breakfast, watching their daughters eating happily, Damian couldn't help but sigh.

"I have to tell you something," Damian said to everyone at the table.

"I'll be away for a while, really not sure for how long," Damian said, causing silence at the table.

"Is it time for your plan?" Carol asked, nodding.

"That's right," Damian nodded before looking at his daughters, who were looking at him sadly.

"Come on, my girls, don't look at me like that. I'm sure you'll have fun at school. Besides, after I finish what I'm going to do, the world will be more entertaining for you," Damian said, smiling affectionately.

The three little ones still looked sad, softening Damian's heart.

Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more.

"Girls, this is important. Don't be dramatic and wait for your father to come back. Finish eating and get ready for school," Ana said, looking at them sternly.

The girls pouted but continued eating.

Ana glanced at Damian for being too soft with them. When they grow up, she wants to see how he'll keep them under control.

Damian just avoided Ana's gaze; there was nothing he could do. They knew how to convince him with their little faces.

"Look, my popularity index is higher than yours," Ophelia mocked Carol while showing her phone.

"Just because you just appeared, I still look cooler than you," Carol said, looking at Ophelia.

"Yes, sure, what's cooler than riding a dragon and shooting beams from your hands?" Ophelia retorted.

"You don't have an energy cape; that makes you look normal next to me," Carol said, refusing to admit defeat.

"Damian doesn't have one, and he tops the list with the cool image of him shooting a giant fireball," Ophelia showed the video to Carol.

"It's because he looks really hot," Carol said, watching the video and biting her lips.

"And I'm not talking about the fireball," Ophelia said with a smile, nodding while watching the video again.

Monica could only roll her eyes as she complained in her mind about superficial people; apparently, her water manipulation wasn't as cool in the eyes of others.

"It's hard to believe you guys have daughters," Sophia said, shaking her head.

"How's your family, Nat? Have they adapted?" Sophia asked, looking at Natasha.

"They're fine. I guess they'll rest, and when the change happens, maybe they'll get back into action," Natasha said, shrugging.

"I'm really interested in what you'll do after that," Sophia said, laughing softly.

"You'll probably get into action too," Damian said, looking at Natasha.

"Hm, finally, the Avengers will do something. After New York, we haven't done anything significant," Natasha laughed.

Alice, Emma, and Ivy finished eating, so they went to brush their teeth before going to school.

After a kiss to each one, the three ran out with a smile.

When saying goodbye to Damian, they were particularly affectionate, hugging him for a long time before giving him several kisses on the cheek.

"By the way, when I leave, all of you have to stay close to the girls, just as a precaution," Damian said, even though he felt like he was being a bit paranoid.

"All right, we'll follow them to school," Ophelia said, nodding along with Carol.

"If you see the slightest suspicion of something, eliminate it immediately. I'm not joking," Damian said seriously.

"Don't worry, I'm not as soft as you," Ophelia said, smiling slightly.

"I'm counting on you," Damian nodded.

"Alright, I'll be back as soon as possible," Damian said, kissing each one before disappearing.

Damian appeared with Cortana, looking around and ensuring everything was in order.

"I think we're ready," Damian said.

"Yes, the system is prepared. We just need to execute it. The Power Stone will provide the energy to keep it running, the Mind Stone will ensure the system functions correctly and without errors, and the Reality Stone will allow the system to exist worldwide, allowing people to access it," Cortana explained.

"Hm, and I'll take care of activating them to steer the system and Earth in the direction we want," Damian said, nodding and sighing.

He had planned this for years, and the day had finally come. Now that the moment had arrived, he had to admit he was hesitating a bit.

But these doubts were quickly set aside. This was the best for him and his family.

"So, let's do it," Damian said, smiling before approaching Cortana's main server.

He took the Reality Stone from its storage space and placed it in the slot, causing red lines to run throughout the system.

With that, the three stones were assembled, and he could proceed with the main event.

Cortana's server elevated, creating enough space for a person to enter.

Damian entered the capsule, which closed immediately. At that moment, he felt the weight of using the three Infinity Stones.

Closing his eyes and concentrating, he began to create the embryo of the system that would soon cover the entire world.

Time passed, and only the terrifying amount of magical energy being gestated could be felt.

...

In Asgard.

Odin listened to Heimdall's report about the sudden invasion of dark elves on Earth.

"Even if you didn't see the Aether, it's most likely in the possession of that man. Nothing else could attract dark elves in that way," Odin said, narrowing his only eye.

If he's not mistaken, he already has three Infinity Stones—half of them. He wonders if he actively seeks them or if it is just a coincidence.

Still, Odin isn't too worried. Obtaining the Soul Gem would be impossible for him, given his personality as informed by Thor.

Suddenly, Odin's only eye opened wide as he stood up and looked toward Earth.

He felt a vast amount of magic building up as if constantly accumulating energy before achieving whatever it was going to do.

"Can you see it?" Odin asked Heimdall.

"No, my king. Although I can't see it, the area of the nebula has decreased to just a couple of meters around him. Clearly, he's at his most vulnerable moment," Heimdall said, also seemingly looking at nothing.

"That's it. When Thor returns, tell him to come see me," Odin said, nodding as he lost himself in his thoughts.

Odin couldn't help but think that the control of the Nine Realms was at its weakest.

If it weren't for his Odinforce containing Hela, he wouldn't have to be in this passive situation.

...

Loki, having gained his freedom, watched the news with an intriguing smile.

"Stop putting on that creepy smile; it doesn't make you look intriguing," Maria said, hitting Loki's face with a pillow, freezing his smile.

"For your information, I wasn't putting on a creepy smile. Those are dark elves that my father claims were extinct. How I would like to go to Asgard to see his expression," Loki said, correcting Maria with an exasperated expression.

"Are they strong?" Maria asked, raising an eyebrow.

"They're supposed to be. Actually, they predate the current universe, so they should be quite powerful," Loki said.

"Wow, isn't that your daughter?" Loki said, looking at a young woman with dark skin, long blue hair, and intimidating red eyes that glowed in the dark.

"She is, isn't she lovely?" Maria said, smiling slightly.

"To be honest, I don't think so. Definitely the kind of beings I'd be cautious around," Loki said, rolling his eyes.

"You should be cautious around me too," Maria said, looking at him threateningly.

Loki just chuckled before ignoring her.

Suddenly, Loki stood up, looking in the direction of Madripoor with a shocked expression.

"Wow, that's terrifying," Loki said, trying to downplay the seriousness of his voice, but only a nervous voice came out, betraying what he felt.

"It seems it has begun," Maria said in a low voice.

"Damian, I suppose," Loki said.

"Yes," Maria said.

"Seriously..." Loki said, shaking his head. He had never felt so much magic in his life.

...

In Kamar-Taj.

Jen suddenly looked in the direction of Madripoor, listening to gasps of surprise and panic outside.

"It's all starting. It seems there won't be peace for a while," Jen murmured, hoping that her choice had been the right one.

"Ancient One, should we investigate?" several masters asked after approaching her.

"No, just stay alert. What's coming is inevitable," Jen said.

"Yes," the masters said before bowing and leaving.

Concern was written all over their faces as they had never felt such concentrated magical energy; they felt it could blow up the planet if unleashed without control.

...

Outside the universe.

In a castle floating in the middle of nowhere.

He Who Remains suddenly looked towards the unknown timeline to his eyes.

Realizing that he could now see through it, which meant his men could also enter.

After observing carefully, he realized Damian had daughters and a family. Although he couldn't look directly at Damian, he realized that at that moment, he was vulnerable.

Still, he didn't dare to attack him. He could only set his gaze on his family, more specifically on his daughters.

Little monsters like their father who hadn't grown up yet.

He Who Remains quickly issued an order, causing several agents to enter the timeline and try to capture Damian's daughters.

He couldn't help but chuckle, who would have thought that the seemingly cold and ruthless Damian could be so affectionate?

He just hoped to succeed so that this timeline, which was like a thorn in his eyes, could be eliminated.
