Chapter 71: Death is a b*tch
(Author's Note: Give me Powerstones!)

I have decided to go all out, I wanted it to be less violent, and safer for me but well that b*tch really wants to die, killing Death means I would have to bear its consequences, maybe other Cosmic Gods will come after me to suppress me, or kill my subordinates who are just at Universal Peak Level, erasing a universe should not be very difficult for them especially Eternity and Infinity as they are the personification of all the Time and Infinite Space of Marvel Multiverse.
I am done with acting weak, after conquering universe the workload on me had increased so much that I decided to stop my quest of conquest, I even made Loki the Lord of the Universe for some months only for him to come crying at me with the huge workload, because of such experiences I became lazier and in the end, it affected current me.
Looking around the dilapidated state of New York I flew upwards, looking down I snapped and the destroyed buildings of New York started returning to how they were before, it was a Time-related spell, just a medium-level divine spell and I made sure to increase the casting range which covers whole Earth, after my previous display of Holy Magic which destroyed all Undead.
In a few minutes, the whole of New York looked as good as new, and it was not limited to New York but every corner of Earth that was destroyed by the rampage of the Undead recovered, it was time for the Grand Finale, I flew a bit higher looking down on whole New York, I saw a red figure coming towards me, he stopped and looked down the paired New York.
"Consider me baffled, but then again did you not consider it important to tell me about your superpowers to me?", he asked, I rolled my eyes and replied," Listen, Tony, we have known each other for what? Like a month, and you want me to tell you everything about myself?", he coughed in embarrassment.
Trying to change the topic he said," Anyway, where is Hela?", I replied plainly," Fled away back to Asgard", he grunted hearing that obviously not liking the idea of that Black Haired Woman running away without bearing the consequences of her actions," That f*cking Monster, she killed millions of people and ran away without paying the price", he said.
I just sighed and replied," When God fights it is the mortals who are most affected", he nodded and then asked," So who are you actually?", curiosity can be seen on his face under the helmet which I can easily see due to my senses, I replied," Let's talk about that a bit later I have something to do".
He looked at me confused and I quickly flew upwards breaking the sound barrier and crossing at Mach 200 speed I reached space, and looking down on the blue planet I raised my hand and said," In my name of Raphael I command thee", my ever calm voice resounded on the whole Earth.
All the corpses of the dead gathered in open spaces, even if there was no corpse left I could resurrect them as for chant, it was just for effect and style, I moved my palm, as millions of souls appeared at the same altitude as me and quickly went down to all around the world, the place where they died, I began the mass resurrection, I smiled seeing the gawking faces of Tony and others.
Each respective soul came directly above their dead bodies for those who didn't have dead bodies, an exact replica of their body manifested and then I put their souls inside the bodies, the injured dead bodies healed to full health and soon I was done with resurrecting everyone I wanted to, yes I didn't resurrect people whom I deemed worthy of being getting resurrected though I made to keep my restrictions quite low thus 70% of dead were resurrected.
Now it was time to finish Hela once and for all, I quickly teleported to Asgard.

Back on Earth,
Many people watched shocked as the dead bodies of people lined up neatly automatically in open spaces, then under everyone's eyes blue orbs fell from the sky and stopped over the dead bodies, the injuries of all the dead bodies healed, and then those blue orbs went inside the bodies, then the most shocking happened as these people started moving confused and scared.
Soon everyone understood what happened, these people were resurrected! and the person might be the same whose voice resounded throughout the entire planet. Many people were bewildered, shocked, and well scared. A being resurrected millions like it was nothing, it was indeed a thing to be scared of.
While some people started kowtowing and saying how god blessed them and Earth, how Archangel Raphael came for their rescue, and blah, blah, blah.
A one-eyed African-American man, in particular, was very shocked by the turn of events, his body trembled as he looked at the scene of the resurrected people, Hill near him reported," Sir from our sources the resurrection happened in other parts of the world, and hundreds of millions of people who had died have resurrected".
Nick Fury nodded and quickly wiped the sweat from his head using a handkerchief, he then took a breathe and calming himself started going through the details," Strong enough to make that Goddess of Death retreat, recover New York and other cities like time is reversed, capable of resurrecting hundreds of millions, his name is Raphael, his powers so far are similar to the powers o to Archangel of Healing Raphael, his face looks androgynous and a bit feminine despite him being a male", he mutters all the info he knows about Raphael.
' Is he the Archangel Raphael then? ', he thought not baffled by such a possibility to him, for him the possibility of Raphael being Archangel Raphael was very great, considering Thor and Hercules existed, so for Archangels and GOD to exist wasn't that surprising but still it begs the question, why now? Why not when Chitauri invaded or other world-ending events?
Why did he let people die? He sure can resurrect but why? Nick Fury could only guess the motive behind his actions, as his intent whether it was friendly or not, he has to observe whether he and God are like what myths depict them to be, he is a Spy and believes that GOD is a good guy now when he is sure of existence isn't something he would do.
'There might be a bigger conspiracy behind all of this', he thought a bit panicked but calming down his nerves he looked at the screen and ordered," Descent the Aircraft!", all agents quickly started carrying out his order while his paranoia was becoming greater by each second.

Teleporting outside of Asgard I saw Hela fighting with Odin, who was wearing his Destroyer Armour, Gungir in his hands as he parried blows at Hela, I could see his life force burning rapidly as he gave him all to barely fight against Hela who was by now stronger than him and was getting stronger each second.
They fought each other at 1/10th speed of light, their blows so fast that even Elite Asgardian won't be able to make out of it, though to me it was as slow as snail, I found Hela was getting the upper hand and I decided to not wait any longer in case she kills Odin which I don't want to happen and even I can resurrect him it wouldn't look good for a God-King right?
Just kidding, anyway teleporting between in their battle I startled them, Odin fumed as he saw me while Hela looked a bit scared aware of my true identity. She quickly gave me a bow and said," Can I know why Your Majesty has interrupted our battle? If I did something insolent back on Midgard then forgive me".
Well she does know how to use words, I am sure Death has told her about me and even if I have some grudges with Death, in her eyes fighting a Comic God is not something she can bear, Odin looked bewildered seeing a change in her attitude then he looked at me using his eyes of wisdom trying to find about me, I weakened my defenses on my information letting him know about me.
His face morphed into one of horror before he recovered and quickly smiled bitterly," I am sorry, I wasn't able to know who Your Majesty is last time", he said using flattering words surprising everyone below. I ignored him looking at Hela as she sweatdropped. She quickly used her Death energy trying to teleport into the realm of Death.
I easily suppressed it and then flying near her I looked at her horrified expression, she pitifully tried her best to break from my grasp, but she despaired as she failed to do so, I can sense her trying to contact Death too save her, I snorted as a clone of Death descended, her mere Aura made every Asgardian pale and unconscious except Odin who tried his best to keep his consciousness.
On her face, a bone-chilling smile formed as she said," You did it again, you blasphemed my domain and resurrected millions of beings, what's worse?! This time you resurrected Mortals!", her voice reached my ears, I calmly replied," Dimension Lords steal trillions of soul from you and resurrect or manipulate reality to their will, you shouldn't get angry on my mere resurrection".
Her Aura increased instantly killing off everything nearly 100 light years, thankfully due to my Aura which repelled hers the Asgardians was spared, even Hela the Goddess of Death found it hard to stay in the presence of Death and quickly kneeled, Odin, gobsmacked by so rapidly change of events and was unable to react.
"It doesn't matter whether those insects steal or not! In the end, all return to me! Death! But once a Cosmic God like you interferes all my control over their souls break! Making them free from me!!!", she screamed in anger as Odin fells down unable to keep his Majesty, Hela trembled as the Horrific Aura of Death at the level of Conspects twisted the space around us.
I sigh and reply," Death this isn't going to end well for you", a threat evident in my words, she started laughing as she replied," You might have potential to surpass me and others, but as of now! You are nothing but an unstable Cosmic God! Your knowledge isn't as much as mine, which has been since the beginning of the Multiverse!".
Her words were right, my knowledge did have some gaps considering I haven't lived as long as hers, she had many trump cards, and one of my biggest fears is will I recover my whole power after resurrecting. The Skill Existential resurrection was still a blank spot for me, if Source of Creation and Void God Azathoth were by now my own powers, that skill was still foreign to me on a level my mind can't fathom, what will the final result was still unknown.
I might have to start from zero after resurrecting, but it has been enough, I looked straight at Death and said, "F*ck Off", I released my true Aura instantly erasing her clone, Hela despaired seeing this as I glanced at her killing her instantly, her soul floated towards me, I clenched it and destroyed it, Killing the Death Goddess which is ironic.
There would be no more resurrection since her soul is destroyed and only I am capable of reconstructing her soul, one of the reasons Death hates me, I glanced at the All-Father who had sacrificed his remaining 90% Lifeforce to barely remained conscious in our confrontation, he breathes heavily and seeing me looking at him, he lowered his head," What does your Excellency want from us?", he questioned me.
I gave him an emotionless look making him tremble instantly, he instantly understood his audacity to ask a Comisc God, a being who can destroy Universe with a single thought, I walked towards him stopping near him, but he kept his head down not daring to look up, I took back my whole Aura, making his body relax, I replied," Prepare a Grand Banquet for me, I would return shortly", saying so I left living a scared Odin.
