Chapter 283: Kill Me
Chapter 283: Kill Me
[You can read chapters in advance, OP and GOT fic on /misterimmortal.]
Hector moved forward, punched the screen, breaking it apart, and then moved towards the large door.
"Diana, it seems our night just got spoiled by these clowns, so what do you say we teach them a lesson for this transgression? Let's see who this 'He Who Remains' is?"
She nodded as she cracked her knuckles in anger. "I am, indeed, angry! It was supposed to be our alone time!"
Hector didn't say anything more and walked out to the corridor by slamming the door with his fist. But, just on the other side awaited some guards in black clothes and helmets with sticks in their heads.
"What are you going to do? Beat me with those batons?" Hector ridiculed them.
BAM!
One of them tried to stab the glittering tip of the baton. But Hector just stood there in confusion. "Was something supposed to happen?"
The guards seemed shocked at that moment as they realised Hector's powers were still there, and nothing could be done about him with their time-altering sticks either. So they took a few steps back and let their leader stand forward.
"Take me to your boss! I am the ruler of my universe and the Inquisitor of Hell. You are trying to be the police of time and space is ridiculous and goes against the laws of the multiverse. Only the Living Tribunal has that right." Hector ordered the guards.
All the guards looked at each other's faces in confusion. This was the first time they saw someone being able to ignore all the limiters in their installation. Hector still had the power, after all.
"What are you?" One of them asked.
Hector proudly replied as he put his arm around Diana's shoulder. "Her husband and a proud dad."
Diana nodded to that. "And a grandpa as well. We have Michu now, after all."
"Ah, that little pup, how could I forget him? Yes, I'm a grandpa as well... so whomever you TVA are, go and bring me your master, or I shall destroy this whole place." Hector threatened them.
The female guard nodded. "Follow me then."
Hector and Diana strolled behind while looking left and right at the strange place. They could feel something strange going on, as they felt no power flowing through there.
Bam!
Two guards opened a large door, and they were allowed to enter. Hector looked around, and it appeared to be some sort of a courtroom, where at the end was a large high table on whose other side sat a woman.
"Woof!" ~Dad!~
Hector noticed that even Moony was there for some reason. The boy booty slammed all the guards, broke the handcuffs they had put on him, and jumped to Hector.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were with Fenris and Michu!" Hector asked the boy, anger also rising slowly.
"Woof wuw wowowo bow!" ~Dad! They take me from home, say I'm a bad doggy, and scare Michu.~
Hector was now enraged. How dare someone call Moony the bad doggy? He kissed the white snowball on the head and patted him. "No, son. You're the goodest boy in the Omniverse. Now, let me talk to these fools. You get your daily kisses from Diana."
Moony, like the spoiled boy he was, ran to Diana and stood on his legs to reach her face. Diana kissed his forehead, leaving a mark of her lipstick. She had wholeheartedly accepted him as her son a long time ago already.
Hector, meanwhile, walked towards the front of the courtroom and folded his arms. There was no air, yet somehow, his badass red coat fluttered. "Who dared call Moony a bad boy? You? Did you send the summons?"
The woman judge, however, appeared uninterested and kept looking at the documents on her table. She just started to mumble. "Variant X1, Hector King Washington, supposed to not exist. You will be pruned now and..."
Hector, suddenly, flew into the air and hovered near her desk. "Listen to me, you harlot, you look into my eyes when I speak to you or get ready to have an oil bath in the Omniversal hell. Now, I want answers. Who the fuck abducted me, my wife, and Moony?"
"W-Who are you?" The woman was scared instantly as she noticed Hector could use his powers.
BOOM!
Hector slammed his fist on the table and broke it apart. He could not use his infinity stones anyway, so he was now freely using his true powers. "This place exists outside the multiverse, right? That means I can go all out here and not worry about the universe breaking apart. Haha, you all doomed yourself by bringing me here.
"As they say, you're stuck here with me, not the other way around."
Bam!
Suddenly the doors opened again, and another man entered while cursing everyone else. "Unhand me right now! You have been mistaken, trust me!"
"Loki?" Hector exclaimed after looking.
Loki, who appeared to be in his battle armour, looked confused at being recognised. "Do I know you?"
Hector rubbed his beard. "Hmm, which universe are you from? What did he do?"
The guard beside me blurted in reply. "Stole the space stone when he was not supposed to because of interference from avengers from the future of another timeline."
"What?" Hector muttered. "You mean the Endgame? So this is Loki from the past world branch timeline the Avengers created?"
"Excuse me, who might you be? It seems you know me very well. You seem powerful. Perhaps we can join hands, take this place down, and be free again. I shall bestow upon you the title of the Guardian when I become the new King of Asgard."

"Pfft!" Diana burst into laughter, along with Moony. She apologised, however. "Sorry, I couldn't... he's truly obnoxious. I don't know how Jean handled him."
Hector had the same idea. "Me neither. Jean has to be a top-class mind manipulator, I think. But, since this guy is not the Loki from our world, there is no need to help or engage him. Anyway, who is the ruler of this place?"
"He Who Remains! That's his name." The woman Judge replied.
Hector sighed and realised that, most likely, this woman did not know who her boss was. So he took out the Godpad pro, something he rarely used.
"All right, He Who Remains, dimension called... Citadel at the End of Time. Found it... let's go there and beat this guy up, Moony. He's the one who tried to call you bad." Hector made the portal appear in front of him.
Moony angrily followed behind Hector. ~I bite his butt!~
...
Hector arrived at a strange palace that was suspended in nothingness with a single large streak of sparkling light travelling around it. "This must be the timeline... but the new branches have already started to sprout due to more Peters."
"Wowy!" ~It's pretty.~ Moony added as the bright streak of lights shined in his big eyes.
"Let's go and see who the ruler of this place is." Hector went forward and knocked on the main door of the castle. Seeing no reaction, he kicked it open. He didn't try to be conservative with his powers as they were from outside the multiverse now, instead of the marvel universe.
They climbed the stairs and soon arrived in a large open hall, and low and behold, a man was sitting on a chair behind a deskdonning robes and looking smug.
"Finally! Thank you for coming here. I was so desperate for this... now kill me and take my place."
Hector was taken aback. "What?"
"Kill me... spelt as K-I-L-L M-E!"

"Why do you want to die, kid? And what are you even doing here?" Hector asked.
"I am Nathaniel Richards, the first Variant who came into contact with alternate universes and other Variants of myself. Initially, everything was great, but then some of my Variants, such as Kang the Conqueror, attempted to conquer other realities. A Multiversal War ensued, which I ended by weaponizing Alioth. This trans-temporal entity serves as the Guardian of the Void. Under the moniker of He Who Remains, I founded and ruled the Time Variance Authority to preserve the Sacred Timeline and prevent the rise of his counterparts.
"But honestly, it's been so long now that I just want to rest... so kill me and free me from this burden. Do whatever you want after that... I want to embrace my end."
