Starting as a Class Five Mutant-Chapter 650

[800PS!!]

"Unknown god from beyond... what is your purpose in coming here?"

Nemesis, the Goddess of Vengeance, couldn't help but ask again.

Across the battlefield, the superheroes tensed.

One Nemesis was already difficult enough—and now another unfamiliar god had appeared? Could they even stand a chance anymore?

Syd's response echoed through the cosmos, mysterious and absolute, as if the voice of universal law itself:

"I merely came to take a look at what this version of the Infinity Stones was like."

As he spoke casually, he raised his indistinct, ungraspable right hand.

And in that moment—under the stunned gazes of the heroes—six glowing Infinity Stones emerged one by one:

Time, Space, Reality, Power, Mind, and Soul—each glimmered in their own hue as they circled his hand.

This scene didn't just shock the heroes—even Nemesis's eyes widened in astonishment.

Unlike the others, she could tell much more clearly: these stones were real, though their power was quite weak.

Another version of the Infinity Stones?

Nemesis was deeply intrigued.

At that moment, Syd glanced at her and said with a hint of warning:

"If you continue this battle, you will die. Are you sure you want to keep fighting?"

He also cast a look at the superheroes in the distance.

The gathered heroes—Avengers, Power Extremes, and more—froze.

Nemesis scoffed and glanced dismissively at the "ants" before her.

With arrogance and disdain, she replied,

"These lowly beings? You think they could kill me?"

To her, aside from this mysterious outer god, no one here was worthy of attention—let alone capable of killing her.

Syd wasn't surprised.

"This is what I glimpsed—your destiny," he replied simply.

Having said what he needed, he floated back to observe.

He had done his part out of courtesy between gods—what happened now was her own choice.

Nemesis paused briefly but quickly brushed off his words. Her divine pride wouldn't allow her to believe such beings could pose any threat.

How could she possibly lose?

She possessed so many powers! These ants? Laughable.

And she was right—under normal circumstances, she shouldn't lose.

But due to narrative force—or fate itself—she was destined to lose.

Just like Thanos: in reality, someone wielding the Infinity Stones shouldn't have lost.

And yet...

Events unfolded exactly as Syd had predicted.

Under his calm gaze, the final moment came—Nemesis's face filled with disbelief and shock.

She was shattered into the seven Infinity Stones once again.

The Ego Stone, which carried her consciousness, was destroyed outright.

The Goddess of Vengeance—erased.

As the heroes took in what had happened, their gazes slowly turned toward the glowing, formless being floating above.

Could it be... that this god had truly foretold their victory?

Even now, they could scarcely believe it.

And yet—a sense of unease crept into their hearts.

If this being could predict even that... what else might he know?

What if he turned hostile?

With a mixture of awe and wariness, they asked,

"What kind of god are you?"

Syd replied calmly,

"Didn't you already suspect?"

"Are you certain you want to challenge me?"

His words caused their hearts to tremble.

A terrifying thought emerged in their minds.

They had suspected something.

But the idea was too ridiculous.

They couldn't bring themselves to believe it.

But now—with the way he phrased it...

Could it be true?

They recalled the divine hymns that had echoed through the universe earlier.

Omniscient. Omnipotent. Creator.

Some among them had already guessed—frightened by the implication.

They just hadn't dared to say it aloud.

Now, with this confirmation—their suspicions solidified.

Was this being... God?

They couldn't believe it. Their minds reeled.

If he truly was God... then fighting him was meaningless.

There was no hope of victory. None.

At that moment—

Seeing their fearful and uncertain expressions, Syd shook his head.

Then his form vanished from Universe 93060.

His blurred, divine form traversed from one universe to another.

Every second, countless strange worlds flashed before his eyes—but he didn't stop.

He had seen what he wanted—the origin of the Infinity Stones from the Nemesis timeline.

There was no need to linger.

As he passed through universe after universe, Syd began to think again.

Infinity Stones...

And then his thoughts turned to a few other special gems.

In some alternate universes, there was a Rhythm Stone—a fake Infinity Stone created by Loki.

Elsewhere, inside Iron Man's mind, was a sentient gem named Anthony—also known as the Wisdom Stone.

And in Deadpool's independent universe, there existed a Continuity Stone, which kept narrative logic intact.

So that made ten stones?

Just then—

Syd halted, arriving in an unfamiliar place.

Here, he saw a group of black Celestials—and even more Infinity Stones.

The colorful stones littered the ground like gemstones in a mine.

And the miners?

Celestials.

They plucked Infinity Stones like common ore—then tossed them into various parallel universes.

"So many Celestials... and so many Infinity Stones!"

Venom's voice was filled with shock.

The stones—so precious in the outside world—were treated here like garbage.

Syd scoffed, glancing at the Celestials.

He didn't act aggressively—he simply raised his indistinct right hand and made a small motion.

In the blink of an eye, all of the Celestials were displaced—shrunk and suspended in his palm.

"Wha—?!"

"Where are we?!"

"Who are you?!"

The Celestials stared upward in horror—gazing upon a vast, unknowable figure.

Blurred. Boundless. Incomprehensible.

Only then did they realize their true predicament.

This being... had grabbed them all in an instant?

What kind of power was this?!

"No—!"

Before they could react, the blurry hand began to close.

And in that instant—crushed beneath divine might—

They vanished like dust.
