《A Mutant’s Ascension》A Mutant's Ascension

[POV Reo]
I kept staring at Ancient One who looked completely dumfounded because of my question. Her thoughts were completely blank for a few moments before her thoughts returned to shocked and bewildered.
"Ah, well, after living for several centuries I found that managing hair was a complete bother and having no hair makes my head feel light" Ancient One answered with a smile on her face.
"Ohhh…" this was the only thing that came out of my mouth. I had never expected that she would become bald for such a measly reason. I had thought that some kind of universal secret might be hidden behind the reason but apparently that wasn't the case.
"Why don't we sit down and have a chat?" Ancient One said and a tea table appeared between us. Ancient One sat down crossed legged, I could see that she has gotten over most of her fear and she was just worried now.
"I don't think this is a nice place to have a chat, after all we are in a old fool's house whose hobby is peeking inside people's heads" I said to Ancient One who just waved her hand in dismissal.
"Don't worry about that fool. He won't be able to see anything happening in this room" Ancient One said, I looked at her for few seconds before sitting down in front of her.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" I asked her seriously grabbing the tea cup she gave me. She is a nice host even though she is the one visiting me. She didn't have any thoughts of deceit so the tea should be clean… but I won't take any chance and check it as soon as I can.
"I wanted to know why are you here. As the Sorcerer Supreme it is my duty to protect earth from different realms and different dimensions" Ancient One said with a polite nod.
"My reason is quite easy to understand… while at the same time it's quite complicated" I said while looking at her intently. I don't know how she is going to react.
"Please try me" Ancient One said with a gentle smile on her face.
I thought for a few moments when I finally decided to speak up "I have come here to make a safe haven for mutants" I said in a neutral tone and waited to see how Ancient One was going to react.
"I have to say, I am quite surprised that you have such a simple aim. After all, you are a very powerful being, I would have never thought that someone like you would ever care about mortals" Ancient One said with obvious surprise in her voice.

I didn't react when she called me a very powerful being, it must have been because God has unlocked my true bloodline but I don't know shit about it. I was continuously using Legilimency on Ancient One when a phrase struck me, she thought I had the Power of Destruction. Even though I was surprised I didn't show any reaction visibly. If she thinks I have that power then I must have that power.
I will need to train as soon as I can and get that power, with my pirated version of Zenkai Boost it won't be too hard for me. That means I need to use the time turner. I don't know how long it was going to take but I think I can master the power, at least I should try and it would be an OP ability to have. I would be like Beerus… destroying anything I find annoying.
"But humans won't like you doing that" Ancient One said with a neutral tone, now, her smile was gone but it was clear she didn't figure out that I was reading her mind or I wasn't able to use the Power of Destruction.
"Of course, they won't like that because they won't be able to hunt them down or experiment on them" I said with a small edge in my voice.
Ancient One kept staring at me for few seconds, I stared back her, she wanted to see my resolve. After a few seconds Ancient One finally released a sigh and spoke up. "It looks like that you are truly determined, I wouldn't stop you as I haven't interfered in this matter until now so I won't now" Ancient One said in a lost tone.
Of course, I would have been angry too if she had decided to interfere now. "Can I request something from you?" Ancient One asked looking slightly hopeful.
What kind of request did she have? Please don't ask me to deal with Dormamu or something. Yes, I might deal with him in the future if I can master my Power of Destruction and I would do it only if Ancient One becomes my friend or something.
"This whole Universe is going to face a very dangerous enemy; the enemy would be so strong that humanity will win only once out of 4 million chances… and they would only win after making heavy sacrifices. If you decide to fight then we might have a new kind of future, a better future" Ancient One said in a solemn voice.
Damn, she is taking about Thanos… well, I already have plans to deal with that fucker. Do, I tell her the truth or just tell her that I will consider.

"From what I feel, you are quite strong, won't you be there?" I asked the Ancient One who looked at me with a smile on her face.
"I would be gone by then; no mortal can escape death" Ancient One said in a cryptic manner. She didn't need to elaborate, she has already seen her death after all.
"I will do what I can" I said, this made Ancient One give an appreciative nod.
"Then, I will be leaving. I live in Kamar-Taj, Nepal, our doors will be always open for you" Ancient One said getting up. The table and teacups disappeared. I nodded my head to her invitation and she opened a portal and left.
As soon as Ancient One left, I released a huge sigh. Hah… that was way more pressure than I like. I slowly laid down on my bed and started to think about the Power of Destruction. Meditating always helps… Ancient One doesn't have tact. Now, I would be unable to sleep.
I threw up my legs and sat on my bed cross-legged and started to meditate. I know that I won't be able to master the Power of Destruction in just one night but I could at least confirm if I have that power or not. I don't know how much time passed but I was finally able to feel an abyss of power. The energy felt like it could destroy anything.
I was standing right in front of the black abyss filled with this power, I looked around and found that I wasn't standing in front of the ocean, I was standing over it. Anywhere I looked I could only see this energy. I could feel it this power was calling to me… my whole being was craving to touch the energy this place was filled with. Can I even hold this power or would I disintegrate into nothingness? But something told me that I must do it… it was the right thing to do.
It was like my soul was calling to this energy… my soul. Yes, the Leviathan's soul is telling me to grab the power. Since the Leviathan is a part of me now, I must be fine, this is my energy too. So, I dived into the ocean and my whole body tingled in happiness, I felt like I found something that belonged to me… it was like my missing part. The energy started to get absorbed by my body and I finally felt myself at peace…

"Did, Reo contact anyone of you? It has been two days" Momo said with clear worry in her voice.
All the girls were worried except Luna who was really happy for whatever reason it was. Luna was laying over Attila's head and she was gently caressing it.
"You don't have to worry about him. He finally achieved his true power and he is currently absorbing his power and his body is getting used to it. He will contact us back in four days" Luna said with a dreamy look on her face and continued to pat Attila.
All the girls intently listened to what Luna was saying after all, only she could give them any information. They knew that Luna has never been wrong so they decided to trust her.
"Attila do you want Ice-Cream? Luna asked the giant basilisk who happily nodded her head.
"Then let's go have some Ice-Cream" Luna declared and both Attila and Luna left after that. Even though the girls were dumbfounded they didn't say anything.
[POV Reo]
I finally opened my eyes and I was assaulted by bright light. My eyes pained and some machine started to beep… what the hell is that annoying noise. I could smell some kind of spirit you can only smell in hospitals. My eyes and ears finally settled down and took the view around me.
I heard footsteps coming towards my direction, and saw a frantic Jean enter the room. I got up and I immediately felt the difference in my body, it was really different, I felt I could destroy a mountain with my fist. I could feel that I have lost all the vulnerabilities I had.
"You need to calm down. Do you remember me?" Jean approached in front of me and asked in a gentle voice.
"What happened to me?" my voice was slightly hoarse; my throat was really dry.
"Can you get me some water?" I asked Jean who nodded and immediately poured a glass of water and handed me. I drunk the whole glass in an instant.
"We don't know what happened but you suddenly went into a coma, we weren't able to treat you because your lightning was interfering with all the machines" Jean said sitting down in front of me.
"Coma? When?" I asked her in a confused tone.
"It has been a week you were out" Jean said and my mind blanked. Fuck It! I have been in a coma for a week? I guess I should go back into coma by myself or the girls would send me back into a coma…
(A/N: MC didn't master the Power of Destruction, he just absorbed all the latent power in the Leviathan's soul and made it his own)
