Chapter 373: Devourer of worlds
"Yes, it is alive. Meet Blackbird. My personal spaceship in this universe." John introduced Blackbird.
"Hello." Blackbird responded.
"Hello. I am Norrin Radd." Norrin said.
"Welcome aboard. I hope you will like the journey." Blackbird said.
"Blackbird take me to where Norrin asks you to." John said as they needed to travel again as Norrin couldn't say the coordinates exactly.
"Sure." Blackbird said. Norrin pointed in the direction and they took off. And thus another long journey began. Though it wasn't a boring one. John was interested to know about the silver surfer history. Even though John read it in the comics he wanted to know more about him.
Even Norrin was interested to know about the host of Phoenix Force so they both exchanged their sides of the story. John then spoke of Black Winter and how they came to know about him.
He was amazed to know that the multiverse had so many beings and the Black Priests. Thus they normally spent time talking and exchanging ideas. It took another 3 months to travel.
Finally one day after months of travel John got to see Galactus.
From far away. And John was amazed by the mere size of him. He thought Arishem's size was big as he was much larger than Earth itself. But Arishem would probably be a kid in front of him.
The size of Galactus was almost the size of a galaxy. John had a mental preparation of the size Galactus would look like but he surpasses his expectations by a mile.
His face looked exactly like he was in the comics, though the color combinations were different but it wasn't far off. As they were approaching, Galactus who was just closing his eyes and levitating opened them.
Simply the opening of his caused the nearby planets to shake. Galactus saw the spaceship coming in his direction. He squinted his eyes and in a blink of an eye he started shrinking in size.
Soon the size of Galactus was just like Arishem's. John sighed when he saw this. Just this move alone showed how powerful he was.
"Ready to meet him?" John asked in a solemn tone.
"We have to.. No.. I have to. This is my last chance to be out of his clutches." Norrin said as his surfboard came to him. John put on his Kryptonian breathing apparatus. He felt sad. He still needed that to come to space. John hoped that after becoming full host of Phoenix Force some drawbacks of his would go away.
Blackbird opened the hangar and they both got out. They then both started flying to Galactus. As they were approaching John could feel that Galactus was looking at them. He was looking at Norrin. Even though he looked at John for a few seconds, his eyes were more on Norrin.
They both finally stopped near the face of him. There was an eerie silence around as it was space. And this silence was kind of stifling. Finally Galactus spoke, even though it was space, his voice was heard by both of them. Probably because of the Power Cosmic wielded by him.
"After so many years you have come back for service?" The voice was heavy and loud. The voice had majesty that John had never heard before. John was sure that his voice was enough to kill mortals. He didn't even need to devour the world.
"I have not come back to serve you. I have come back with news. The news that is important to you." Norrin replied.
"What kind of important news is it that you have come from so far just to inform me." Galactus asked, now being little interested. His favourite has always been Norrin no matter who he chose next as his herald.
Galactus didn't even bother to reprimand Norrin for his absence. That was the reason he didn't say anything when Norrin refused to be of his service again.
"My friend here will deliver you the information." Norrin said as he pointed to John.
"A host of Phoenix Force? He is still too young to talk to me. It will be better if you tell me Norrin." Galactus said not even looking at John. Even though technically they both belonged to the same category, John wasn't the actual host yet so Galactus never cared.
Moreover, Galactus and John belonged to opposite camps. Him being on the side of life force and Galactus was responsible for devouring life force. John looked at Galactus while he squinted his eyes. It was the first time he was looked down upon.
Even the Priest Strange never looked down upon him. He directly used his omnitrix and changed himself.
To Alien X. Galactus was taken aback by this sudden transformation. He could feel that this new person which the host changed into had never appeared in front of him. And like him, this new being was powered by something cosmic.
And if this wasn't enough, Alien X started to get bigger. And in the blink of an eye the size of Alien X was exactly as the size of Galactus

Chapter 374: The balance
"Now can we talk?" John said and like Galactus his voice too travelled without any problems across space. Both Galactus and Norrin were taken aback by this sudden change. They didn't expect that John was able to do such a thing and both could feel that John's powers were like them.
"What are you?" Galactus asked as he got intrigued by this new host of Phoenix force. He had never seen such a being ever before.
"A celestialsapien." A voice again said which sounded like it was said by three different beings.
"Celestial? Do you belong to that race?" Galactus asked as he thought John belonged to the Celestials.
"Don't categorise me with them. I never have any connection with them." John answered and this time with a bit of anger.
"Let's leave my origins. We both have unspeakable origins. But the problem is I know of your origins. Galan of Taa." John said. Galactus' eyes squinted as John said his real name out loud. He never expected someone totally out of nowhere knew his actual name.
"Never expected an unknown guy would know my origins. So what of it? I don't think it matters where I came from." Galactus replied.
"It doesn't. You did what you had to do to survive. But the problem is you made a deal with the devil." John replied. Galactus looked at John with more stoic eyes now. He had done many things in the past and he made many bad decisions. He just wasn't sure what John was referring to so he was silent. John seeing that Galactus was silent and refused to speak said
"Black Winter is coming."
"What did you say?" Galactus shouted out loud. He was visibly shaken when John spoke about Black Winter.
"You heard me right. Your master is coming." John said. Galactus got agitated when John said that Black Winter was his master. He never spoke of this to anyone. Nobody knew of it.
Until now. He became angry when John said that Black Winter was his master. He hated being a part of him. And John just reminded him that.
Galactus then did not know what to do when John said that directly punched John. And John, who was expecting this attack, blocked him with his hands. And then after blocking him, punched back. This punch hit Galactus right at his face. This small move was enough to push Galactus back.
But that wasn't the highlight of all this. The highlight was the nearby planets and asteroids got destroyed into nothingness. This attack was felt by most of the planets nearby. Galactus who was pushed back was ready to hit John again but before he could do that a person appeared right in front of them.
A person of the same size as them.
A person who had three heads levitating over the shoulder with no neck. The other two heads were covered while others could see only his one face. The body looked golden in color.
Yes!! The Living Tribunal, the judge of the multiverse was here.
John's eyes squinted when he saw this because he knew this guy. This was the 'Living Tribunal'. The actual balance controller of the multiverse. The person who never interfered until there was imbalance in the universe.
"Can you guys calm down?" the Living Tribunal spoke.
"He was the one trying to hit me." John just shrugged his shoulders when he said that. Galactus, who was ready to hit John, stopped. Even though he wasn't afraid of the Living Tribunal, he didn't want to get on the wrong side of such a guy.
"Sorry, I couldn't hold myself when he said Black Winter was my master." Galactus said.
"Did I say a lie? You are his herald. You have been hiding from him since this multverse started. Hiding and thinking he would go away. And now he is back. Hungry for my universe." John said.
"How? How do you know this? Nobody knew of this. Nobody!!!" Galactus said.
"How I know doesn't matter. What I want to know is what will you do about this matter?" John asked. Galactus was silent for sometime, but finally clenched his teeth and hands.
"Of course I will fight against him. Me, being an herald of him doesn't mean anything. My powers are not fueled by him." Galactus said with a hint of pride. His Power Cosmic was really wasn't fueled by Black Winter but by the Eternity from the previous multiverse.
"But your hunger is fueled by Black Winter." John responded. Galactus became silent when John accused him of that. His hunger for worlds was really fueled by it.
"Why are you here?" John asked now to the Living Tribunal who was watching the conversation of both of them. He too didn't know that Galactus was the herald of Black Winter. This was a total new information for him. (He is omnipotent but the moment John became the host his omnipotence lost on John and all the other Gods)
"I am here to stop you from causing more havoc in the universe." the Living Tribunal said. his tone was bland so John didn't know if he was angry or sad.
"They deserved it." John said as he understood what the Living Tribunal meant.
