Marvel: I Awake the Little Cosmos-Chapter 592 - 560: With You, I Exist

Within the magic circle, the golden-red light unique to the Phoenix Nebula shone brightly.

With the bloom of the main sequence star of the Phoenix Nebula, Hawk, who was originally sitting cross-legged in the magic circle, slowly opened his eyes as if he had fallen into the mortal world.

The next second.

Hawk looked helplessly at Wanda, who was covered in crimson and seemed unusually corrupted.

"If you want me to come back, you always have to give me a signal."

"..."

The previously angry Wanda’s expression froze at Hawk’s words.

"What?"

"Did you forget how I combined with the Mind Gemstone?"

Hawk’s tone was calm, speaking as he stood up from the magic circle: "Because of you, I was able to combine with the Mind Gemstone, be reborn from death, and resurrect. So, because of you, there is me. Therefore, if you don’t give me a signal, how can I return here?"

This was the truth.

Since he had already decided to come here, he naturally wouldn’t hesitate at the last moment.

But Hawk didn’t expect that this body not only carried his aura but also Wanda’s aura.

So—

If he wanted to descend into this body, not only did he need his own consent, but he also needed Wanda’s permission.

After all, in this space-time, his body had long been gone, and the form combined with the Mind Gemstone was only possible with Wanda’s help, allowing him to be reborn from death.

Watching Hawk’s arrival, the Supreme Mage Wang then looked at the man and woman gazing at each other. After a shiver, he turned around, left without a word or looking back, leaving this chamber to Hawk from the Other Cosmos and the currently corrupted version of Wanda.

Hawk noticed the departure of the Supreme Mage Wang from the corner of his eye but didn’t mind, continuing to look at the black-lined Wanda in front of him with a smile: "The Wanda I remember is not someone who would resort to murder over mere words."

Wanda chuckled.

"The Wanda you’re talking about is the Wanda from your original cosmos. Sorry, that’s not me."

"I love Wanda."

Hawk answered without any hesitation: "I love you, in every cosmos, I love you."

This is not plagiarism.

But a tribute!

As everyone knows.

Classics are meant to be paid tribute to, besides, sweet nothings in the world are much the same; who says they are an individual’s exclusive?

Doctor Strange said it, and Hawk can say it too.

Moreover, this was also Hawk’s truth.

Just as he admitted to Wanda, he also loves Gwen, in every cosmos, he loves Gwen equally.

And Wanda was not jealous.

So—

The Wanda before him shouldn’t be jealous either, after all, no matter which Wanda, she is Wanda.

Listening to Hawk’s words, Wanda’s eyes stared straight at Hawk in front of her.

"You’re not him."

"I am."

"Prove it to me."

"That might be a bit difficult."

"Why?"

Hawk did not answer but glanced around the chamber, barren, without mentioning a bed, even the floor was visibly cold.

Following Hawk’s gaze, Wanda also looked around, then realized, raised an eyebrow, and scoffed at Hawk: "Peh, shameless."

Hawk laughed, spreading his hands toward Wanda: "Hey, you said prove it to you."

Wanda was also amused.

"Not in that way."

"But it’s the simplest and most effective way; I know your depths, and you know my length."

"...Shut up!"

At first, not realizing, but quickly catching on, Wanda instinctively rolled her eyes at Hawk, but her crimson, dark; crimson power dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, before deeply looking at Hawk.

"Your shamelessness hasn’t changed."

"Only for you."

Hawk smiled, then opened his arms, embracing the Wanda before him, his fingers brushing through Wanda’s hair, his voice calm: "Sorry, I’m late."

With these words.

Wanda in his arms, the Scarlet Witch’s battle armor instantly melted away, transforming back into regular home attire, tightly clutching Hawk’s waist, her head resting on Hawk’s chest, listening to that unusually familiar heartbeat, her voice tinged with a choking tone.

"I missed you so much, Hawk."

"Me too."

Hawk’s lips kissed Wanda’s forehead.

The body he inhabited here was, unlike others, not a different entity but one soul in two forms.

Here, he was him.

So Hawk possessed all the memories from this cosmos, which is also why he regarded the smart Anya as his sister here.

Naturally.

He also harbored all emotional memories with this Wanda.

What?

He is him, but this Wanda isn’t the one that exists in every corner of his timeline?

Doesn’t matter.

Let future Hawk deal with future troubles; it has nothing to do with the Hawk now.

People.

The most important thing is to live in the present.

This was Hawk’s mental journey when he decided to agree to Wang’s plan and come to this space-time.

He loves Gwen, in every universe.

Similarly, he also loves Wanda, in every universe, and whether his Wanda can understand that is something to be addressed after he settles the Celestial God Team and brings Wanda back from the 828 Cosmos.

The repetition between Hawk and Wanda doesn’t have many fancy words, nor any intense exchanges, just mutual embraces and a few words between the two.

The chamber that originally stored the Time Gemstone is now silent, with only the sound of two hearts beating.

At first, the two hearts didn’t beat in sync, rising and falling, but over time, gradually, the frequency of their differing heartbeats began to align and synchronize.

Half an hour later.

Hawk walked out from the library behind him, standing on a corridor with an Eastern touch, looking at the snowy mountains in the distance and the falling snowflakes outside. Instinctively, he reached out his right hand to catch a snowflake that landed in his palm.

The snowflake melted in Hawk’s palm, visibly to the naked eye.

Hawk was entranced.

"What’s wrong?"

The crimson hue was gone, no longer the crimson battle armor, but instead, Wanda donned a dress like a vacation outfit, watching this scene with curiosity.

Hawk came to his senses, looking at Wanda, who was watching him with a caring gaze, and smiled slightly: "It feels good to be alive."

In a sense, he had experienced life and death once more.

He descended his consciousness into a body that had died, which was also a kind of Nirvana and rebirth.

Huh.

That’s not right.

Come to think of it, I didn’t seem to need to actually die at that time, I could cheat by transferring my consciousness into an already dead body, which was a detour through life and death.

No, why did I think about cheating again?

I promised never to cheat again, as the cost of cheating is great, and I have already settled that, with cheating it’s an even slate.

Hawk’s thoughts were chaotic, and he subconsciously shook his head.

In Wanda’s eyes, Hawk’s behavior appeared very strange.

"What’s wrong again?"

"Cheating is a bad habit, I’m trying to quit."

"Uh..."

"It’s nothing, just revived, too many chaotic thoughts, don’t worry about it, I’m fine."

Hawk smiled, holding Wanda’s hand, and said: "The soul is too strong, the body too weak, I’m adapting."

If it were his real body, his consciousness wouldn’t fluctuate so much, if possible, he could maintain absolute calm.

That’s what is called divinity.

But his body here, although indestructible due to integrating with the Mind Gemstone, is not the divine body refined and sublimated by Hawk’s thousand trials.

That’s why after his arrival, his thoughts became many and chaotic.

Wanda listened to Hawk’s explanation, remembered something Supreme Mage Wang said before.

"Wang said the true you is formidable."

"Not bad."

Hawk humbly replied, then looked into Wanda’s eyes again, smiling: "The stronger I am, the stronger you are too."

Wanda raised her eyebrows.

"What does that mean?"

"If I’m ranked among men, then you’re ranked among women."

Hmm.

This proved once again that his soul was still adapting to this body.

After Hawk said this, chaotic thoughts rose again, thinking like this in his heart.

Wanda, listening to Hawk’s words, pursed her lips slightly as she looked at him: "Now I’m sure you’ve really come back."

Hawk raised an eyebrow, just about to ask why, when suddenly, in his memory, he recalled how in this universe he had pursued Wanda.

After all, he didn’t have external aid in this universe, so after joining Hydra, he ran to Sokovia. Upon seeing the Scarlet Witch, how could he not be moved? Thus, he relied on the advantage of proximity and sweet talk to win Wanda’s heart.

However...

Hawk smiled slightly: "That’s where you’re wrong."

Wanda was slightly confused.

"It’s not just me coming back."

"What..."

"Since I’m back, Pietro will come back too."

Hawk said smiling.

It’s just a matter of convenience.

Anyway, he has to take a trip to Hell, and use Hell’s passage as a transfer station to go to the main space-time of this cosmos.

And the Mephisto here hasn’t been trained by him.

So in the training process, bringing this universe’s Pietro back along will just be the reward for training Mephisto.

Wanda, hearing Hawk’s words, was stunned in place.

She thought of her brother.

"Pietro?"

"Yes."

Hawk nodded, once again embracing the seemingly dazed Wanda, his tone calm yet undeniable: "Let’s go, meet this place’s Mephisto."
