Marvel: I Awake the Little Cosmos-Chapter 580 - 548: Replacing Him with Him

Ajak’s expression was serious and stern.

Hawk’s expression also turned serious at this moment because of Ajak’s words.

He never imagined that the Celestial God Team’s plan was to eliminate him, but they wanted to do it through him.

What is this called?

Let me kill myself?

But that’s not right.

His time and soul had long since gathered, and he was only a half-step away from the Ninth Sense, so how could the Celestial God Team find another him?

Hawk’s thoughts were turning. To uncover the truth, he came to his senses and immediately looked at Ajak.

"Mind if I take a look into your memory?"

"Uh..."

Ajak was momentarily stunned by these words, then nodded: "Of course, but how should I do this."

Hawk smiled slightly.

"Just don’t resist."

"What..."

Just as Ajak spoke, Hawk had already entered the former’s memory world.

In an instant.

Even Hawk, upon entering Ajak’s memory world, was almost dazed by the vastness of Ajak’s memory, which could hardly be described as immense; it could be compared to the time length of the Milky Way Galaxy.

But he quickly regained his composure.

It’s widely known.

After completing each ’Divine Appearance’ mission, the Eternal Race’s members have this segment of their memory deleted by the Celestial God Team.

After all, the Celestial God Team has always deceived the Eternal Race, making them believe ’Divine Appearance’ is a good thing, even hiding the fact they created the Mutant Race.

So, to maintain the Eternal Race’s loyalty, every mission’s conclusion involves memory erasure for the Eternal Race’s members.

But Ajak is an exception.

During the execution of ’Divine Appearance’, someone is needed to ensure the plan doesn’t deviate due to unexpected events.

The un-erased memory of Ajak is the guarantee that ’Divine Appearance’ can arrive as scheduled.

Therefore—

She hasn’t had her memory erased, which is why there’s such a vast quantity of memories in her memory world.

Hawk isn’t interested in the vast memories of Ajak, nor in the inner journey Ajak chose in abandoning darkness for light.

He’s only interested in the self Ajak spoke of.

Therefore!

Hawk’s thoughts shifted, and he transformed into a Fire Phoenix with double pupils, burning with golden-red flames in the sky above Ajak’s memory world.

Under the Phoenix Fire, Ajak’s memories, as vast as the time length of the Milky Way Galaxy, evaporated instantly like an ocean under the noon sun.

But this evaporation wasn’t to cleanse Ajak’s memory; it was merely a way for Hawk to read Ajak’s memories.

Very soon.

As Hawk absorbed Ajak’s memories, he had already found what he sought from these vast, smoky memories.

Hawk immersed his mind in this memory fragment.

The next second.

He heard a voice sounding in his ear.

"You’ve done well, Ajak, you’ve successfully stalled the footsteps of the one trying to escape time, escape our ongoing control of the sinner."

"But I need to do everything possible to stall him for a bit longer."

"By any means necessary."

"Even if it takes your life to stall him!"

"..."

At the moment Hawk raised his gaze, he instantly saw a Celestial God Team member standing before him, with a face bearing six cylinders, body huge like a giant.

Clearly.

He had entered Ajak’s memory, taking on Ajak’s perspective.

So this is Creator Sella?

While looking at the six-cylinder before him, Hawk thought this to himself and recorded Creator Sella’s aura.

He’s got no choice.

To him, Celestial God Team members all looked the same, just like Easterners seeing Westerners believing they share a template.

Thankfully, he had a simpler and more effective way of memorizing.

Appearances might deceive, but auras won’t. Every creature has its unique aura, thus using aura as identification is best.

The most important point.

Regarding Hawk’s enemies, once Hawk records their aura, he could smell their stench even from afar.

While Hawk silently recorded Creator Sella’s aura, the latter continued painting grand pictures to Ajak.

"You might die."

"But..."

"You will gain supreme glory and then be reborn."

Creator Sella said: "So, Ajak, use every method, by any means necessary, to ensure you stall him."

Listening to Sella’s grand talk, Hawk scoffed inwardly. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Be reborn?

You have that ability.

With your belonging to time, dare you steal from the hands of death.

Hawk doesn’t believe it at all.

Not to mention, currently in this universe, the death authority of Earth is in his hands. If someone were to resurrect from him, don’t ask whether he’d agree.

Hawk’s thoughts churned, no longer paying attention to Creator Sella’s mouth-rubbing, instead focusing on behind Creator Sella.

The next second.

He saw the self Ajak spoke of.

With one glance.

This self...

Really is him, and Hawk also caught a familiar scent from this self.

This scent—

Cosmos?

No.

It seems like the 616 Cosmos, but it’s not 616 Cosmos.

The feeling is ambiguous.

Parallel Cosmos?

But that’s not right. Although the 616 Cosmos once had a soul belonging to him, after he went to the 616 Cosmos, it was already retrieved.

So how could he still be there?

This isn’t realistic.

As everyone knows.

In the 616 Cosmos, indeed, there is another him.

Hawk does not deny this point, but after he went to the 616 Cosmos, he already retrieved the part of his soul that belonged to him.

In a word.

If his soul is not complete, he cannot enter the portal of the Ninth Sense.

After all, he defined his Ninth Sense as unique.

If he himself is not unique, then what the hell is there to discuss about uniqueness?

So on this point, Hawk is very certain.

Moreover, with Wanda’s help, he completely consolidated, repaired, and perfected his timeline.

Even if the Celestial God Team could intercept his timeline and find an instance of himself, trying to use that instance against him, it’s impossible for him not to perceive it.

Alright.

Even if he cannot perceive it, don’t forget, Wanda is also on his timeline, so even if he doesn’t perceive it, how could Wanda not?

Then the question arises.

Where did this guy come from?

Just as Hawk’s thoughts were swirling, Ajak from the memory fragment noticed this ambiguous Hawk.

"Celestial God, isn’t Hawk with us, then who’s behind you?"

"This one."

Creator Serra listened to Ajak’s question, feeling a bit displeased inside.

After all, to them, the Eternal Race is just a tool they created to reduce their workload.

As a tool, it only needs to be handy and obedient, it doesn’t need to speak.

But...

Considering the current situation and timing, Creator Serra still answered Ajak’s question.

"This is a tool we use to eliminate unstable factors."

"No."

"To be precise, it’s used to replace him."

"But this perfect tool still needs time to be perfected, so your responsibility is to do everything possible to hold him off, hold him off for as long as you can."

"...Understood, sir."

Ajak, hearing this, felt a bit puzzled, but still nodded in response, then seemed to think of something: "Then sir... this delay time?"

Creator Serra shook his head: "The exact time is unknown, but remember, do everything possible, hold off as long as you can, after all, the cosmos needs evolution, and this perfect tool also needs evolution."

Having said that.

Creator Serra waved his hand directly.

"Alright, go ahead, remember, complete this task well, and I will absolve you of the negligence of supervision charges."

"..."

At this point!

The dialogue memory between Ajak and Creator Serra ends here.

After Hawk left the dialogue memory between Ajak and Creator Serra, he sat on the sofa, frowning in contemplation.

Ajak just felt a warmth in his mind, followed by a coolness, feeling a long-lost comfort, then saw Hawk, who just said he would check, change his expression to contemplation a second later.

Clearly.

In the previous second, Hawk had already completed entering his own memory, and then the work of reading that memory.

Moreover...

It seems that in that moment, she felt her originally vast but complex and immense memory become incomparably clear, even very distant memories were clear once she thought of them.

Indeed.

As expected of the newly risen male god who can stand up to the Celestial God Team.

Ajak thought privately, then looked at the contemplative Hawk on the sofa: "Mr. Phoenix, is that you... is you?"

Hawk returned to his senses, looked at Ajak, thought for a moment, then nodded: "That’s right, it’s me, but it’s not me."

Yes.

Just now, for a brief moment, he indeed thought that the self he saw in Ajak’s memory was him.

But once he came to realization, he found it was completely not the case.

Simply put, just like the ambiguous 616 Cosmos, that self is also ambiguous with himself.

Similar.

But it is not!

Yet even so, he still can’t understand where the Celestial God Team got this ambiguous version of himself from.

And what Creator Serra just said about replacement.

Using an ambiguous version of himself to replace him.

Well.

The idea sounds beautiful.

But——

Hawk racked his brain, still couldn’t figure out how to use an ambiguous version of himself to replace himself.

Luckily.

When it comes to matters concerning him, there is someone who knows him better.

His wife.

Wanda!
