Marvel: Saint Seiya Starting with the Reality Stone

at the same time.

On the Kelso hills deep in the Mojave Desert.

The moment the comet from Phoenix streaked across the sky above Mike, the last star in Mike's microcosm was also manifested by the Aether particle.

next second.

As the last star that made up the phantom of the phoenix lit up, the fifty-seven stars that had been manifested using ether particles during this period also lit up simultaneously in the microcosm, successfully imprinting the phantom of the phoenix in the microcosm.

In an instant, a phoenix's cry resounded throughout Mike's inner universe.

At that very moment, the phoenix phantom originally imprinted by the ether particles was no longer just a static imprint.

It's alive!

The phantom of the phoenix suddenly raised its neck in the microcosm, and its wings also spread out in the depths of the microcosm. Fifty-eight stars lit up one after another along the phoenix's fiery feathers like joints, burning from the core of its chest to the tips of its wings. Mike's microcosm was burned red at this moment.

It was as red as blood that had been set ablaze.

At the same moment, just as Mike finished imprinting the phoenix phantom onto his cosmos, the comet from the constellation Phoenix, which had just flown over to this location, seemed to smell a familiar scent and subconsciously paused for a moment.

In that very pause, the main sequence star of the constellation Phoenix, 77 light-years away from Earth in the real universe, suddenly lit up.

next second.

Tweet!

Suddenly, Mike heard a phoenix's cry again in his mind.

But this beep was different from the beep that sounded when the phantom image of the microcosm was born.

The phoenix's mournful cry was fake.

But this beeping sound was genuine, real, a phoenix cry echoing in Mike's mind from the Phoenix constellation in the real universe.

It was at this moment that the Centipede organization, located in the nuclear town in the distance, suddenly noticed the reason why Mike's body seemed to be burning with flames and his energy was surging instantly.

But next second.

This energy comes quickly and goes quickly.

It vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye. As the beeping sound from the Phoenix constellation in the real universe disappeared, and as the Phoenix comet flew past overhead, everything returned to silence.

Even the phoenix phantom within Mike's inner universe, which had just been formed, gradually faded into nothingness in an instant.

Like—

It was as if nothing had happened.

but--

How could nothing have happened?

Mike, who was sitting on Kelso Hill, slowly opened his eyes. At first, he remained motionless. After a while, he took a deep breath, then looked up at the starry sky above him, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

The worst has happened.

Phoenix did not choose to merge with his cosmos.

This is not because Phoenix does not want to merge with Mike, because even if it were any other person or even any god, Phoenix would not merge with them.

because--

Mike then suddenly remembered something.

There was something he had thought of but then overlooked when he chose the Phoenix constellation and began trying to imprint it on his own cosmos.

Phoenix Power!

Well known.

During the time of Michael I, which was on Earth, Phoenix was merely an inanimate object named for scientific observation.

Even in his second life, in the Sanctuary, Phoenix only possessed instinctive consciousness.

But what about the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

The Phoenix Force in the Marvel Universe is alive.

The kind of life that is truly alive.

Marvel's Phoenix Force is a living, cosmic-level life form. It is the embodiment of power, and also possesses independent consciousness, emotions, and intelligence. It is one of the most powerful and complex beings in the Marvel Universe.

Mike had thought about this question at first.

Although this is supposed to be the Marvel Universe, there are no mutants here, and the Phoenix Force's host is the mutant Jean Grey, leading Mike to believe that the Phoenix Force doesn't exist here.

But just now, after he had come face to face with Phoenix, he realized it again.

The Phoenix Force exists throughout the entire Marvel Universe, which refers to all of Marvel's main multiverses.

Perhaps the Phoenix Force doesn't exist in this Marvel Universe, because it exists in another Marvel Universe.

Simply put.

The Phoenix Force is unique. There are many in the Marvel multiverse, but there is only one Phoenix Force.

However, this was not the reason why Phoenix rejected Mike.

The Phoenix Force has had many hosts, and Mike is so powerful, so logically it wouldn't refuse Mike.

But Mike and the Phoenix Force are incompatible.

The incompatibility here doesn't refer to personality differences, but rather that, once again, the Phoenix Force in the Marvel Universe is not an inanimate object, nor is it merely a creature with instinctive consciousness; it is a living, breathing life form on a cosmic scale.

In terms of life level, the Phoenix Force is a god in the Marvel Universe.

Where's Mike?

It may be the same in the future, but it's not at least not now, especially since the Phoenix Force has already chosen a host.

and so--

Phoenix rejected Mike.

Although, according to Marvel's lore, the Phoenix Force is the embodiment of all life and emotional forces at the beginning of the universe, and in theory, it has nothing to do with the constellation Phoenix.

But the Phoenix Force is a god-level life form.

Since it is a god, then everything related to this god is naturally within the scope of this god.

The power of the phoenix.

Phoenix constellation.

Potatoes and potatoes are the same thing.

but--

Although Phoenix rejected Mike, Mike wasn't actually that upset; in fact, he felt relieved.

Because the Phoenix Force only rejected him, unlike the worst-case scenario where it saw him forcing himself on her and then, in a fit of rage, slapped him to death.

Mike could withstand the wrath of the Phoenix, but he couldn't withstand the furious blow of a living, cosmic being wielding the power of the Phoenix.

As things stand at the moment.

To put it in a more vulgar way, when the Phoenix Force opened its eyes and saw Mike lying on top of it, it didn't get angry and kill Mike; it simply pushed Mike off it.

That's it.

and so--

bad news.

Mike did not complete the fusion with Phoenix and become a Phoenix Saint as he had planned.

But it's not without good news.

because!

Right now.

Right now.

Just as he was politely refused entry by Phoenix, but at that moment his inner universe was still reflected in Phoenix because of the phantom image of Phoenix, he suddenly heard another constellation calling to him.

That is--

hold head high--!!!
