Chương 176: Chapter 176: Home
[Anthony's POV]
They hugged me which was a pleasant surprise, but I could tell they had been very worried.
I could feel their relief and fear disappearing.
I had to comfort Lena and the other girls, even those who didn't throw themselves at me.
"So, it's done…"
Bruce Wayne nodded after hearing Clark say that Darkseid was dead.
"Our world is now free from the tyrant…"
"And destroyed."
Lois said sadly, hugging Clark.
We were on the lower floor, where all the heroes from the recent events and villains who wanted to know what to do next had gathered.
Even Harley was silent and just staring at the wall... although that might be normal for her.
"We lost, and it came at a price..."
Diana said, raising her cybernetic limb.
"We lost a lot... if not almost everything."
Mera added who had lost her husband and Atlantis.
It turned out that Darkseid had also visited there and destroyed everything to the ground.
"The atmosphere is just like in my world..."
Shinoa murmured and was clearly displeased.
She had grown to love bustling cities and the feeling of life, not the devastation and death from despair.
"Now is not the time for gloom."
Superman stepped forward.
"It's hard for all of us right now... we've all lost someone close. Our enemy was the God of Evil, and he tried to destroy our spirit, our hope. And he failed. He fell, and we survived."
He said, hovering slightly above the ground.
"And now we have the chance to rebuild what we've lost, to restore our civilization. Yes, it will be hard... but we will manage as we have before."
"I have already prepared several plans for the restoration of humanity."
Bruce spoke up.
"Each of them has advantages and disadvantages, but it will only take forty years even in the worst-case scenario. There are still more than two billion people left, so it's not all bad."
"We will all do everything we can despite what we have become."
Diana nodded.
"Speaking of that..."
I said, standing up, which Lena didn't seem to like judging by her look.
"Let me restore your original bodies. It's not that difficult."
I suggested.
"Anthony Luthor, you are a worthy man... and a worthy God."
Diana stood up and approached me, showing her trust in me.
"I am grateful to you for everything you have done and for all the help you've provided... Thank you all so much."
She glanced at the girls.
Shinoa smiled proudly, and Hermione blushed slightly from the attention along with Erin, but the latter still took pride in her actions.
Winter and Rias simply nodded while Lena exhaled and smiled.
"Yes, we may not know exactly why you came, but if it was simply to help, as you said... then Justice has prevailed."
Batman spoke and removed his mask, revealing Wayne's familiar yet more old face.
"She still doesn't believe it..."
Erina muttered with dissatisfaction.
"It's Batman,"
Shinoa shrugged, amused by her friend's reaction.
It wasn't difficult for me to obliterate and reduce Diana's prosthetics to atoms and then begin reconstructing her flesh.
She may not be an ordinary human, but there's no significant difference for me anymore.
They wouldn't have lived long without their prosthetics.
For instance, Starfire was torn in half, and her prosthetics replaced everything below her waist.
It didn't take even a minute for them to be all healed, and they looked at their limbs with surprise and immense joy.
"We'll be leaving soon... literally in a couple of minutes."
I noticed the mission timer was running out.
"So, I'll help however I can to restore your planet to the fullest. Good luck to all of you, stay positive... and rebuild civilization."
I gave them a thumbs-up and teleported into the stratosphere to begin 'healing' Earth, with the Entity and the White Lantern Ring actively assisting me.
First, I eliminated any Parademons or Paradumans still on Earth and cleansed the planet of Darkseid's dark energy.
I restored the planet's atmosphere, heavily polluted by machines from Apokolips, and replenished the missing magma to restore its weight.
...
"The satellites have detected some strange activity... not just the satellites... the planet's core is stabilizing."
Batman observed.
"Yes, and not just that. The atmosphere is becoming cleaner. I can see it from here."
Clark remarked in amazement, raising an eyebrow.
Then... all the beings on this planet began to glow with a pure white light that seemed to make everyone healthier.
"That's the power of life itself."
Raven understood while hugging Robin by the arm.
"Look!"
Lois pointed out the window where they could see an entire city seemingly rebuilding itself or as if they were watching it in fast forward.
In just a few seconds, the city restored its former beauty.
They would soon also discover the cleansed ocean and a vast array of blooming plants, berries, vegetables, and much more.
The whole Earth seemed to be flourishing with life.
Before long, all the newcomers simply disappeared, leaving absolutely nothing behind.
Flash, however, decided to rewrite the world as he had done before and shared his idea with the others.
It took time for everyone to agree, and Flash ran, creating a new Flashpoint.
"Emm, so, where are the changes?"
Harley started looking around after a bright flash in the direction of Flash had gone.
"I don't get it, everything was supposed to change, right? We should forget everything and be in a new world?"
"Hm, plan 'F' didn't work."
Bruce mused.
However, they had everything covered, and there was no great loss.
He suspected Flash might have moved to another reality, but they remained here...
...
"Tony... I wanted to apologize."
Lena looked at me as soon as we teleported back to LuthorCorp on our Earth.
Shinoa remained silent when perhaps sensing the atmosphere.
"You don't need to. I understand it must have been unpleasant for you to realize I was hiding something..."
"No, I... I understand why you did it, and I don't care about Lex. I already saw what Luthor of that planet did... forgive me, brother."
She kissed me gently, showing that she truly regretted her actions.
"You're more important to me than some bald man who abandoned us in childhood... and... ahem..."
"Speak."
I gently hugged her by the waist, feeling she had something to say.
"Well... do you mind legalizing our relationship?"
She looked at me expectantly, and I... froze.
"Ahem... ahem."
Shinoa coughed and stared at us in shock.
"Umm."
I managed to mumble.
"Well, we could start with a wedding in another world, I wouldn't mind that..."
She smiled like a cunning cat.
In the next moment, Lena's clothes began transforming as they were still made of nanorobots while creating a maid's outfit.
"Master... your servant desires a taste of your milk."
"Oh, I have plenty of that milk..."
I understood Lena's desire to have some intimate time.
She needed to relieve all her accumulated stress, and I was more than happy to help her with that.
I could check the mission rewards later.
"Administrator-kun, don't forget about this kitty... I want affection too."
Shinoa, already completely naked, extended her arms.
I teleported us to Olympus, where I accelerated my time.
We had just enough time to indulge ourselves before the intense negotiations in the chat.
Mission Available: Apocalypse from the Heavens
Objective: Help another version of the Administrator's planet.
Status: Completed
Main Mission Reward: 270,000 Chat Points
Additional Task 1: Kill Trigon alone
Reward: 50,000 Chat Points
Additional Task 2: Restore Earth
Reward: 20,000 Chat Points
"How many points did you get?"
Lena asked, looking at me.
She looked much more refreshed and better now, as we had been making love for three days straight.
"Three hundred forty thousand, including the reward for the additional tasks."
I told her the plain truth.
That's... a lot of points when considering the points I already had; now I have...
Chat Points: 416,854
"Wow... but you did fight the main baddies."
Lena nodded in agreement.
"I got thirty-two thousand chat points for the main mission, another ten for defending the portal, and ten for defeating the Furries!"
"For a first mission, that's really impressive."
I shrugged.
It truly was because it was her first mission and significant battle, and I was worried about her.
"Hehe, I got more! I'm experienced in these missions now!"
Shinoa pretended to be proud.
Shinoa Hiragi: So, I won't ask administrator-kun about his points because he obviously got the most. However, I do know how many he got... but I'm not telling, hehe.
Winter Schnee: He did the most, after all.
Hermione Granger: I got forty-three thousand for our main mission... Oh, now I can buy whatever I want from the store and make so many potions! Oh, and an additional mission brought me fifteen thousand! For fighting Darkseid's elite forces.
Shinoa Hiragi: Oh? I got forty-five thousand! Hehe, plus fifteen for the same additional mission!
Rias Gremory: Hmm, also forty-three. Shinoa, you did fight the strongest of those Furies, so maybe that's why you got more. But yes, I got the same for the additional mission.
Winter Schnee: I think your rewards are higher because you went to the enemy planet. I got thirty-two thousand plus ten for defending the portal.
Erina Nakiri: That's still a lot. I also got a total of forty-three thousand.
Lena Luthor: I got the same, plus an additional ten thousand for defeating the Furries.
Shinoa Hiragi: I'm rich! Hehe.
With such an amount of points, it was really possible to start buying useful things... like detailed knowledge of the Mother Box's structure and how to create it.
This knowledge cost me one hundred fifty thousand points...
Chat Points: 266,854
Cortana monitored everything during these hours, and nothing significant happened on our planet.
Superman and the two Karas flew over the world to save people from various disasters and deal with the mafia, human trafficking, and pirates at sea.
However, the government would not ignore these "superheroes," and Amanda Waller had lately turned the Belle Reve jail for "meta-criminals" into another headquarters from which she was assembling her team.
Kara had also encountered some of the members on one of her travels.
Specifically, she encountered King Shark... who had eaten the guards in the vehicle transporting him to the mission, and tried to escape.
Kara found this King Shark, the son of the Hawaiian god-shark whom I had killed.
Their encounter ended with Sharky's bones broken... and he was returned to prison.
The Karas also frequently fly to the Kryptonian city in space since I built it with knowledge of their architecture, allowing them to feel a piece of home.
The Kryptonians have started beautifying the city and the surroundings, with Faora working hard.
I could say that this is her duty, which she carries with her head held high.
A few hours after my return from the mission, Cortana and I began studying the structure of the Mother Box and the creation history by Mobius... who is actually the Anti-Monitor.
He already surpasses the gods when considering that Perpetua is his mother, a super-celestial created by the Source.
Moreover, Anti-Monitor's relentless attempts to avenge his brother do not make him benevolent...
Ultimately, learning the secret of the Anti-Life Equation literally shattered and poisoned his entire being.
He became the destroyer of universes... the Anti-Monitor.
Now, compared to him, I am like an ant or nothing.
"Alright, let's talk,"
I noticed that my White Lantern ring began signaling me to move to a specific location... the planet's core.
The Entity had apparently decided to speak with me, but I expected this to happen sooner.
It seemed to take a few hours to understand what kind of creature I am.
