Austin felt like it was now time to return to earth, with his interference in Thanos' plans, he wouldn't know how things would go anymore.
but he was sure of one thing, he would be the one to kill Thanos with his own hands.
Austin had his generals keep watch over the faction while he was away, as he spoke his faction members was out conquering the planets of neighboring evil planets.
Austin specifically informed them to target evil planets, he wouldn't feel good if he randomly went and dominated some peaceful planet and became another evil version of Thanos.
Austin stood before a Stargate and looked at The grandmaster, Proxima midnight, and all the other generals under his rule.
"I'll be back, keep everything in check for me," Austin said before he jumped through the Stargate, in a matter of seconds he instantly appeared inside his college dorm room.
Austin automatically looked at his phone as he felt his connection which was nil come back Alive after a short while.
Due to Austin being on a whole other planet, his phone had no connection and he couldn't contact anybody at all, except for Tony through the chip he had given him.
Looking at his phone, Austin saw many texts as well as calls from Malik and Cynthia, surprisingly Cynthia called a lot more times and she seemed to be very worried.
Austin immediately came up with a random excuse and decided to call them one by one.
"Hey Cynthia, long time no see," Austin said the moment the phone call went through.
"your Alive?" a soft questioning voice was heard from the other side of the phone immediately.
"of course I am Alive, why wouldn't I be, no, well that's because I had a little business trip but my phone was broken, and you know my financial situation, I can't buy a phone easily" Austin bullshitted his way through the call, Cynthia didn't buy it, but she missed him so much that she decided to forget about it, she was thinking it was something he didn't want to talk about, as even his own best friend Malik was out of contact with him.
"ok well just tell me next time you decide to take any sudden trips, that way I will at least know" Cynthia replied calmly with a smile on her face.
"of course, so, how has school been going, I've probably missed a lot of work and need to catch up" Austin and Cynthia talked for an hour before he ended the call and spoke to Malik.
Just like how he bullshitted his way with Cynthia, he bullshitted his way with Malik as well, considering the guy's IQ level, he easily bought the story and started laughing at Austin for breaking his phone mid-trip.
---
Austin honestly didn't understand why he was still in school, considering his wealth that was amassed on many planets, his strength, and everything else.
One word from Austin would be enough for him to be given tons of gold and diamonds if he wanted, which could then instantly make him a billionaire on earth.
Austin created a dungeon near his school and easily killed his way throughout, surprisingly he went up by a level this time, which rarely happened.

looking at his status screen, Austin suddenly realized that he had 20 status points, 15 of which came from him killing Hela, and another 5 which came from the level he had just gained.
Austin distributed his stats evenly throughout the 5 attributes, 5 strength, vitality, speed, and intelligence.
After doing all his missing assignments and turning in everything virtually, Austin hopped in the shower and then flew out towards time square.
Austin leisurely walked through new York city's time square, he had his hands in the pockets of his hoodie as he walked on the sidewalk.
it felt like he had been gone from earth for so long when genuinely it's only been a few days.
Austin even felt like he had changed a bit, whether it was in terms of maturity and taking control of his situation or his overall increase in power, it was a very good feeling.
As Austin walked through time square, he could see many posters in the distance, and like any average day in New York, many skirmishes and problems could be happening in broad daylight, even so, it was nothing compared to the armies of rats that patrolled the city every day like it was the sewers.
