章 368: Honest talk

"Can I eat them?" Venom asked.

"Of course. They are corpses. And don't even belong to my race. Let's go outside of your consciousness. You can have your meal. And then we can talk. Oh yes. You will have to take control of your host." John said.

"Oh that will be easy. I am starving." Venom said, licking his lips. Then John got out of his consciousness and changed himself back to his actual form. John brought a chair from his vault and sat.

Meanwhile, Venom finally woke up and took control of the body of Tar-Kel. When he saw all the dead bodies lying around he became ecstatic and started eating them one by one. Even though it was disgusting to see, John didn't show any expression.

He just watched it with silence. It took 30 minutes for Venom to consume all the dead bodies. Finally after eating and burping, Venom was satisfied. He hadn't eaten in such a long time and now finally he felt that it was the best meal he had ever had in a long time. And even it had two different flavors and so he was more happy.

Except for one Skrull, all their brains were intact and that was more delicious. Venom after finishing finally sat down and looked at John. Even though he was eating he kept an eye on John. He wasn't sure how and why John woke him up and he seemed like he knew him.

But Venom had no memories of him in his lifetime. And honestly John's breath disgusted him, especially his eyes. His eyes made Venom feel fear. A fear from the depth of his soul.

After sitting down and burping in a loud volume he finally said.

"You seem to know about me." Venom said in a very ghoulish tone, if his voice could ever be described

"I do. But the problem is how much do you know about yourself?" John asked

"Ohh. Tell me what you know about me?" Venom wanted to see how much this disgusted person knew about him.

"Two words - the Hive and Klyntar." John said.

"Oh.. damn.. You really do know. So what are you here for? To get to Klyntar. The breath which you have will disgust Klyntar more. They aren't as good tempered as me." Venom said.

"Klyntar? Can you connect with the Hive mind?" John asked, raising his eyebrows.

"I can. But passively, if I do it actively, they will come after me and maybe kill me. Many new ones still haven't been purified." John said.

"How much do you know of All-Black?" John asked, changing the topic.

"All-Black? What is that? Is that edible? I don't know why that name invoked fear onto me." Venom said.

"It should, Venom, it should. But since you can't connect yourself with the Hive mind. Let's leave it at that. When Knull awakens you need to inform me." John said.

"Knull. Who is that?" Venom asked.

"The God who made your race. Not all things are taught to the later generations, Venom. Your new generations were never informed of them and that is the reason many of you don't know of him. The controllers of Klynar just throw you all out and let you grow as you see fit. Klyntar can't house too many symbiotes."

"Wait! What does that mean? What are you talking about? A god who made us? What the hell!!" Venom asked.

"You will feel it when he awakens. Here is a charm made of magic. Break it when Knull awakens." John said as he gave a charm tablet made of magic. The magic in it will be enough to call John even if he was in another universe.

Truth to be said when he came to Earth-616 he wanted the All-Black for himself. But, after becoming the host of Phoenix Force the notion of using All-Black was out the window.

His powers now were fueled by fire and symbiotes main drawback was fire and sound. Until a Eddie becomes God of Light he could never use Venom, so using Venom as his symbiote was also a dead end.

And All-Black would never accept him as his weapon. So this route of confronting Black Winter got closed before it even started when he became the host.

"Is he really our maker?" Venom asked as he took the charm. He was sceptical of what this guy said but the fact that he knew of Klyntar even after being on the side of light meant that this person might have some extra information which he never had access to before.

"Maker? Yes. Knull is. Essentially your deity. Hellbent on bringing the universe to darkness and old ages again." John said.

"That is impossible. The Hive said we are a race of good and nobility. It is the host's mind that influences us and makes us bad. There can be no such maker who wants to do such a sh***y thing. What will we eat if he kills the universe? " Venom said, denying the words of John.

"Well yes that is there too. But that is the true history. Believe it or not." John said.
