The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 338 - An Agent's Thoughts...

A/N: Let's take the vote for the woman you want from Against The Gods World... I know it would be somewhat problematic because the MC would be destroying their world afterwards, so I will have to twist and turn the story from the start.

First, I would want to say that I really want Chu Yuechan to be in the harem, after all, I didn't like what happened to her in the story but the problem is if I take Chu Yuechan then I would have to take her younger sister too... Chu Yueli... So, if Chu Yuechan gets selected then Chu Yueli would be selected by default. ??

And please try to vote for the woman who have the potential to separate themselves from the world, that is why I didn't even add Cang Yue in the vote.

1) Chu Yuechan

2) Feng Xu'er (Personally I dont think that she would agree with MC's personality)

3) Caizhi

4) Xia Qingyue (Personally I would hate to involve myself with this Ice-Block and over-hyped bint but I writing the fanfic for fun so if you choose her I will add her in the harem)

5) Huan Caiyi

6) Ye Hongling

7) Chi Wuyao

8) Jasmine (I would loathe to this one too... after all, she looks like a kid and MC likes mature women, I understand that she might be older than MC but she looks like a kid)

9) Yun Qianying

That's it for the number of girls... now let's move on with the story...

[POV Reo]

"Stop!! Take us with you... we might not be strong like you but we can hold our own ground!!" just before I could use Flash Step, I heard Rogue's or Marie's voice from the back. I stopped and turned around so that I could look directly into her eyes.

"I think you simply don't understand what you are dealing with and all of you will be simply dead weight..." I said coldly and started intently... Marie slightly cowered after hearing my colds words... no one in the group were happy after hearing my words but none of them refuted since they knew that this was truly out of their league.

"...You should at least hear about the powers the Android possesses..." Ororo said in a neutral tone and I knew that she was right... after all, I didn't even know that Android's name and going in blindly would be stupid when the Android possesses two Infinity Stones. So, I simply gestured Ororo to continue...

"The Android's name is Nimrod... it is an extremely advanced Android, it is made with extremely durable metals and it can also fix itself... not much is known about its powers because we arrived as soon as he got the Space Stone in his possession... Tony Stark would have been able to give you more information" Ororo finished with a small frown on her face.

That was basically nothing!! She basically didn't tell me anything except the name! I already knew those things about Nimrod from the comics... I knew that he could completely configure his body to defeat his enemies but he must have information about them. I wonder how much information does it have regarding me.

"I see..." I said with a blank look on my face and I used Flash Step to appear right outside of JDEM Facility...

[JDEM Facility, Mojave Desert]

"How is the Tesseract reacting now?" Fury growled out with an annoyed look on his face. It has been a week since he had been annoyed because of the Tesseract, no one knew why but the Tesseract had started to act weirdly.

Agent Maria Hill could only shake her head in denial. "No sir, there have been no changes in the weird energy readings" Hill said in a neutral tone and this made Fury scowl even more but he didn't scream or shout, after all, he knew that it wasn't anyone's fault.

"Agent Hill, keep me posted!" Fury said and the screen turned off. Hill shook her head and released a defeated sigh... she has been under a lot of pressure since the Tesseract had started acting weirdly... somehow, the World Council found out about this and they have been relentless to know about the progress.

All of a sudden the whole building shook and alarms started to blare... her hand immediately shot towards her ear, she pressed the earpiece... "What the hell happened??!!" Hill roared in an urgent tone... she was already stressed and she didn't need anything new on her plate.

'Ma'am... Leviathan's here' the man from the other side answered while stuttering... Hill would have torn into her underling for stuttering if she herself wasn't shaking in fear... after all, it was a common human reaction.

Hill's face was completely pale now... and she hindered once again... there was no way that she could stop Leviathan... she knew that there was a huge chance that she was going to die today but she would carry out her duty... She gathered back all of her bearings and called Fury with the computer in front of her.

It didn't take much time for Fury to pick up the video call... "Hill!! Reinforcements are already on their way... we can't have Leviathan get his hands on the Tesseract..." Fury barked and the call was disconnected. Hill's hand robotically went towards her earpiece.

"Agent Barton, take the Tesseract to the vault" Hill said in a monotone.

'I am already on the way, ma'am' Barton's voice was heard from the other side... Hill stood up from the seat and checked her gun... yep... it was loaded but it won't do her any good and she also knew that. Hill walked towards the cupboard and took out two grenades from there... she kept them for emergencies and this was definitely an emergency.

After that she quickly rushed out of the room, she was heading straight towards the vault... from time to time Hill was shaking her head, she knew that her job was dangerous and she could die anytime but no that the death is slowly creeping up on her... she found her resolve to be somewhat lacking.

Hill finally arrived in front of the lift, and as soon as she entered the lift, she pressed the passcode for the vault, but for whatever reason, the doors weren't closing, before she could do anything, she started to hear footsteps.

Someone was coming in this direction... metallic footsteps... the door was also not closing... it wouldn't take a genius to figure out who it was, she felt several chills run down her spine. Her instincts screamed at her... telling her to run away but she stood frozen in her place.

'Ma'am, we are already here, where are you' Barton's voice came through but Hill failed to answer... she felt a lump stuck in her throat when Leviathan or Reo finally appeared in front of her, in his ever glorious red armour.

Fury wanted to take down this monster with guns... what a joke!!! Hill thought and with shaking hands, she pulled the grenade pins... 'Goddammit!! Seal the door, Hill is KIA' Barton's voice sailed through her earpiece, she would have smiled if the situation was better but she was going to be Killed in Action like Barton said.

[POV Maria Hill]

I was simply waiting for the grenades to explode but it seemed that Leviathan didn't agree with me... the grenades sailed out of my hands and landed on his... the grenades were surrounded by a purple glow and the grenades disintegrated into thin air... what kind of power was that??

"Tsk... Tsk... Tsk... a grenade can be really harmful if it is not handled with care... looks like SHIELD Agents lack some training" he said in an amused tone and the doors finally closed. I remained completely silent... after all, what can I do??

"Umm... aren't you going to pull out that gun??" he asked me curiously... Hell!! He wasn't even slightly bothered by the fact that I still had a gun on me... but why would he?? After all, he had absolute control over metals from what I have read in the reports.

"...It won't do me any good..." I said in a somewhat shaky tone... never in my life, I have been so afraid and if I survive this is going to be my life's greatest shame.

"Aww... you don't need to be scared... I will let you go... probably. Hehe... by the thanks for the passcode... the last guys weren't helpful as you, so I had to persuade them..." he said in a cheerful tone and stood beside me with a smile.

"...What are you going to do with the Tesseract?" I asked him after some time, I didn't know how I was able to get the courage to ask him something like that. He gave me a blank stare for a couple of seconds... I was getting slightly worried until he finally burst out laughing.

"...Ah... sorry, I didn't to laugh like that but I just remembered something funny... for now, it will be a surprise... Agent Hill, do you like surprises?" he asked with a serious look on his face but after he finished speaking, a gentle smile appeared on his face...
