"No. What is it? All I can feel is immense life force. Almost unlimited." Triss said as she wanted to know what it was.
"Because it is an unlimited life force. John is the host of Phoenix Force. He is basically on a different level now. The mortals can now deem him as a God now. The Phoenix Force is one of the oldest known cosmic entities, representing life that has not yet been born, as well as the forces of creation and destruction." Norrin said. It was all he knew of the Phoenix force.
"What? A host of a god. Wouldn't it change his personality?" Banner asked as he feared John would be like his Hulk persona.
"The Phoenix force chooses a host every time it goes through rebirth. This time it was special. He was chosen as the host before the Phoenix force hatched. So it means when it hatches John will have full control. So don't worry. The John you know will remain the same John forever." (it is true, Scott once got the Phoenix force when it was an egg and he had full control over Phoenix force before dying in battle. Oh yes, having Phoenix force doesn't make him invincible. There are situations when a God can die too)
"This is interesting. We have a God now among us. An actual multiversal god. We have hopes against Black Winter." Diana said. Later they all introduced each other. Norrin was curious about them so he wanted to know more about his future comrades.
All were curious about the Phoenix Force too so they wanted to know more of its previous hosts.
He wanted to see if the Earth in this universe was worthy enough. And the Avengers wanted to know about his meeting with Galactus and how he looked. They were curious about the other universe. A universe where many of them had their doppelgangers. And the universe which they had not seen in John's works.
John went home and entered his beloved bathroom. He needed shower to clean himself. Even though he actually didn't need any cleaning he still loved doing that. Being a magician comes with a lot of baggage, and being clean always was one of them.
As he was in his bathtub he was checking the system. He had not checked the system since he entered that universe. Maybe because a part of him feared that checking his system he would be noticed so he wanted to be away from the system.
And now he was the host of Phoenix force. John hoped that the Phoenix Force wouldn't be able to see his secret.
"Oh yes. I forgot about the Fairy Tail. Let the Eternals arc end, then I will just summon them. Will keep the fan values. Maybe I will need them during the fight against Black Winter. I wonder how Arshem will react to our stopping of his plans. Can't wait to piss him off."
John was thinking all random thoughts as he was bathing. he soon came out and had his food. Audino returned the moment he came back. So she, John and the spirit of the house had a good time together.
"How were you when I was gone?" John asked.
"Was boring but we were fine." the spirit said.
"Hmm. I am sorry for leaving you all like this. I won't be going away any time soon." John said.
"It's ok. We understand. You have a lot to do and a lot to protect. All we can do is give you a good place to rest." the spirit said.
"Thank you." John said to them. Even though they were his summons and they needed to listen to his orders, John genuinely liked them and treated them all fair. Even if he needed to control them sometimes, he did as little as possible and wanted them to grow as normal as possible.
He decided to spend his time at home now and won't go out for a few days. He had been running around a lot and now he needed a break from all of this. Thus in the next few days he was at home. This year Emma wouldn't come as they all needed to be on the lookout for Black Winter.
This was a dangerous job, but they had to undertake it. John wanted her back at home but she refused to come back.
A month or so passed by like this but one fine day, his days of lazing around stopped. This day was kind of tragic for Earth as a whole.
Because there was a massive earthquake which jolted the whole Earth. Such an earthquake had never been seen on the planet and the geologists were clueless. John who came to know of this mumbled.
"So Tiamat, we are finally here. Let me see what I can make of you."
"Avengers, gather at the hall. We have a God to bury." John said as he wore his helmet.
