" it seems I loved an outsider. You got some interesting ability there my love. Able to live in another universe while being alive in this one ", a seductive female voice appeared behind him. No sooner than he accepted the rewards this voice appeared. There she is Emma Frost, or lady death who is using her image.
" Ah, hello there honey ", and this greetings seems to have made her furious. She just grabbed his neck and pinned him to the wall. Kevin looked into her eyes and said," you developed quite the kinks in my absence it seems ", he tried to joke, she snorted and threw him to the nearby sofa.
He landed with a thud and groaned in pain," can we talk this out sweetheart? Just you and me as two adults ", she just approached him in silence. Kevin didn't back away, he sat there clutching his back, that's quite a throw, seems like she is holding a grudge. Or maybe angry at being deceived.
" I'm not angry at you keeping secrets. I'm angry at you for throwing your life like this. I'm immortal, I'm an abstract entiry who will just reappear in few years if something happens. But what about you? If Thanos killed you and locked you soul away in that soul stone, I would have to fight him and face my brothers and sisters. It would have quite a bit of a headache. Next time, you can just die peacefully, I'm death, I can collect your soul and let you stay with me forever in my realm ", lady death said with some anger.
' hey, that's quite harsh and which wife asks her husband to just die ', Kein grumbled inside and got flicked by death. He is once again sent flying back. " Sweety, I'm quite fragile as a human. Please consider that before throwing me around like a toy", Kevin said.
" You're my toy dear. From now on and forever. You'll always be my toy, and to take care of this fragile toy, I have an idea how about I lock you in the depths of my realm, I get to keep to all to myself. Isn't that just great? You wouldn't need to worry about anything after that even if the multiverse ends, death remains, because death is the end for everything and from death everything will be reborn. How about it? You wouldn't even need to fear anything there, no avengers, no celestials, no cosmic threats, no Thanos, no beyonders, not even my father OAA. He already approved we can choose whoever we wants as champions and lovers ", lady death said with a seductive smile.
" Yeah, *groan* *crackle* you developed some sadistic tendencies in my absence it seems. Ugh, my back hurts like hell ", Kevin said before wrapping his hands around lady death who just casually threw him back on the sofa.
" Stop throwing me around. My body is already aching badly ", Kevin said. " As long as that remains functional and you're alive, in my eyes everything will be alright ", she said before chains made of bones started binding Kevin's limbs.
" Ah, dear, let's talk this out okay. No need for violence, we're grown ups right ", but she didn't even listen to his words. She just casually waved her hands and a big bed appeared. Kevin is placed on the bed while his limbs are tied with those bone chains.
" Never in all these multiverses, never even once, there was someone who deceived me to such extent. For deceiving me like this, I need to punish you right. And it took me quite a bit of time to find you, whatever thing you're using, it created many detours in the multiverse before arriving here. Father is right, everything has a first time. For deceiving me, the death, you'll face your punishment ", she spoke with a evil grin and then laughed madly. The sky outside thundered.
Next morning :
A haggard Kevin woke up. He looked at Emma Frost or lady death beside him with a sigh. He is almost sucked dry into a mummy yesterday, it's terrifying.
' system you bastard. This is all your fault ', Kevin cursed inwardly.
[...]
" Ugh, my back. My whole is trembling crazily ", Kevin tried to stand up, he felt quite weak at this moment. Wrestling on bed with a cosmic entity, he is no match for her power or stamina.
(If anyone can drain a literal cosmic entity on bed. Be my guest)
' it's an impossible dream to win against a cosmic entity in terms of stamina. But, she is really terrifying. I thought I might not wake up to see today ', Kein thought. " But you did, didn't you? You want to live, and your death isn't written in this multiverse. So your life is in my hands to do as I please. But considering your love to live, i spared you. But the next you deceive me like this, I swear, you'll be forever be trapped within my realm ", lady death woke up and stretched her body.
Kevin gulped. ' she can read my mind. System, can't you prevent that somehow ', lady death spoke," a fragment of chaos trying to prevent me from reading your mind. Kevin, dear, you got some wild imagination. Those systems, they're created in void when large amounts of chaos energy got accumulated together. It can't even hold a candle to real cosmic entities, it can escape sure, but in power, it's just a puppet in our hands once we caught it. Never trust those fanfics and webnovels from your previous life. We held the control of multiverse concepts for a reason ".
' is that true? ', Kevin asked.
[ Affirmative ]
" Good guy, serve my husband well. You're lucky it's me who got entangled and lived you. If it's others, they would have destroyed you both in anger. But although I'm very angry, I can't bear to completely restrict you. You'll hate me for that. I advise you made less contact with anything cosmic in your simulation. Celestials got high temper, my siblings are quite wary of these fragments of chaos. Their hosts always jump around in the multiverse like monkeys in a barrel, some even tried usurping them. Fools who don't know their place ", she spoke with a glare.
That glare isn't on Kevin but seems to be at the system inside him. " Do you understand? I placed restrictions on you, you cannot go against my husband nor can you corrupt his mind now with a bait called power. I'll be watching over you. And you, do whatever you want. I marked your soul and injected some of my power in you, your soul will be back into my realm once your life ends. Good luck, I'll be watching over you ".
Kevin blinked while lady death said," if you want to visit me, just think about me and try to open a portal like those sorcerers or witches. I made it like that because you have quite a thing for antics afterall ". She then vanished.
