Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 362 Odin's Frigga, Zeus's Hera, and Hawk's Gwen (First Update!)

Teleportation room.

Its official name is the Matter Transfer Chamber, a cutting-edge technology of the Enterprise, and the only one of its kind.

He can break people down into energy beams and then reassemble them at a predetermined destination; it's a very, very dark technology.

Hawke perfectly embodied the Enterprise, including this teleportation chamber.

Inside a sleek, futuristic circular room.

The central part is the teleportation platform, which consists of circular mats that can transport six people at a time.

"enterprise."

"gentlemen."

After Hawke led Gwen to stand on the teleportation platform, and Gamora followed suit, he gave the order.

"Teleport!"

"clear."

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by the signature buzzing sound emanating from the teleportation chamber, the flashing light began to disintegrate, and the three people in the teleportation platform instantly turned into light.

next second!
The points of light converged and rearranged in the fountain garden of Planet Igor.

Gwen, who had reappeared, subconsciously raised her hands, glanced at them, and then looked at Hawke beside her.

"This teleportation feels amazing."

"How about a few more times?"

Hawke smiled and gave a hint, looking at his wife who was completely devoted to him.

Gwen smiled and shook her head, saying "never mind," before looking around at the planetary landscape, which was different from Xandar.

Giant clusters of crystals rose from the ground like a forest.

In the distance, a waterfall made of pure energy cascades silently, flowing into the shimmering river below.

As far as the eye can see, there are colorful plants and forests.

"It's so beautiful here."

"Our future planet will be even more beautiful than this one."

Hawke continued speaking confidently to his wife, whose eyes were full of love for him.

Eyes facing each other.

Gwen looked at Hawke, whose eyes were full of her, and smiled brightly.

"I know."

"..."

Gamora, who was teleported over with the two but ignored by them, felt goosebumps all over her body and a sense of unease.

I should be underground, not on the ground.

fortunately!

Just as Gamora was caught in a dilemma, Ego's spaceship broke through the atmosphere and landed steadily on the nearby helipad.

Star-Lord saw Gamora coming down ahead of them and ran over.

"Gamora, you..."

"Do not ask."

Gamora breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Star-Lord leave the arena, and quickly ran to his side with a serious expression.

The mild-mannered Igor stepped out of the spaceship.

“Mrs. Phoenix, how was it? Did the scenery of my planet make your trip worthwhile?”

“Your planet is beautiful, Mr. Igor.”

"Thank you."

Igor politely thanked him, then led the group toward a rather unique-looking palace not far away.

The interior of the palace was equally magnificent.

One word.

奢！
Two words.

extravagant.

"I don't know where I came from."

"As far back as I can remember, I've been the only one shining, drifting alone in the universe..."

As Ego walked through one eggshell-like slide after another, the audience, except for Hawke and Gwen, learned that Ego was a "Celestial" and also the entire process of how Ego and Star-Lord's mother met, got to know each other, fell in love, and had their child.

Finally, Ego couldn't wait to take Star-Lord to see the statue he had built for Star-Lord's mother.

As for everyone else…

What the others didn't know was that Hawke first led Gwen to the room with planetary features that Igor had prepared especially for them.

Gwen stood on the balcony, gazing into the distance, and then, as if she saw something, called out to Hawke without turning her head.

Hawke walked over, hugged Gwen from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and then looked in the direction Gwen was looking.

into the eye.

He saw Star-Lord forming a Rasengan in front of a crystal statue of a woman, and Ego, whose excitement was barely concealed, standing in front of Star-Lord.

It's normal for Igor to be excited.

After all, Ego, who followed Zeus and sowed seeds all over the universe, ended up having only Star-Lord inherit his abilities.

This can't be called one in a thousand, this should be called one in a million.

Hawke watched this scene, and seemed to have thought of something, whispering something in Gwen's ear.

"don’t worry."

"Ok?"

Gwen glanced at Hawke sideways, puzzled.

Hawke said with a smile, "Our child was born a god."

Gwen chuckled upon hearing this.

"Shouldn't it be a demigod?"

"what?"

"Their father may be a god, but their mother is a mortal, isn't she?"

"..."

Hawke listened to Gwen's words and followed her gaze to the crystal female statue that Ego had created. He suddenly understood why Gwen had said those words.

only……

Hawke's lips curled into a smile: "Darling, you don't still think you're a mortal now, do you?" Upon hearing this, Gwen turned around in Hawke's arms, wrapped her arms around his neck, and looked at him with blinking eyes.

"What do you mean? I'm no longer a mortal?"

“Of course, if I were a god, you would be my queen, Frigga of Odin, Hera of Zeus, and Gwen!”

Hawke smiled broadly.

Gwen's smile was also radiant.

"Frigga is dead, Hera's Zeus is having an affair, Hawke, what are you implying?"

"..."

Hawke's smile froze.

Hey!
Careless.

Gwen looked at Hawke's stiff expression, her smile growing even brighter. However, the irritation in her heart disappeared, and she said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I was just thinking about how Star-Lord's mother was given brain cancer by Ego and is now being deceived by him. I wonder if Star-Lord can see through Ego's conspiracy."

Upon hearing this, Hawke's expression returned to normal, and he embraced Gwen: "Don't worry, Ego will get the ending he deserves."

Thanos is just a name.

But Star-Lord is a genuine father killer.

For her mother's sake, she would rather give up being a demigod than betray her mother and kill her scumbag god father.

In a word.

Star-Lord, you've got guts!

Hawke's thoughts raced as he felt his wife in his arms, perhaps made more sentimental by her pregnancy. He gazed intently at Star-Lord in front of the statue in the distance. Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind and surfaced in his heart.

Maybe……

This time, can the demigod truly live up to the name?
Hawke raised his eyebrows.

sunset.

Planet Igor was bathed in orange-red sunlight.

Hawke stood on the balcony, quietly embracing his newlywed wife, Gwen.

same.

In another room, Star-Lord, who had just realized his demigod status and reconciled with his father, saw Hawk and Gwen embracing as he passed by. He then went to the balcony where Gamora was and tried to embrace her.

But compared to the optimistic Star-Lord, Gamora, who was raised by her adoptive father Thanos from a young age and received various forms of intrigue training, does not feel optimistic.

This feeling of unease intensified, especially after discovering that they could no longer contact Rocket Raccoon.

First, Hawke, without any protection, traversed the universe and wiped out an entire drone squadron in Sovereignty with a single move.

Now another one has arrived, Igor, who claims to be a god.

The former is fine.

Although Gamora smelled a sour and cloying scent on Hawk and Gwent, and also sensed a strong sense of the unknown, she did not feel any malice, not even a faint hint of it.

But Igor...

For some reason, Gamora felt a strong sense of unease from her female intuition after arriving on this planet.

and so……

While Gamora was lost in thought, she accepted Star-Lord's invitation to dance, which had suddenly become quite excited, and whispered her unease.

then……

"Earth, Earth is the place where I watched my mother die."

"No, it's just because life on Earth is real, while here, this place is a dream."

"This is the real place. I'm only half human, remember?"

"What I'm worried about is your partner."

"Oh, I see, you're jealous that my other half comes from the gods."

"..."

Hawke and Gwen, who were enjoying their extended honeymoon on their balcony with their eyes closed, opened their eyes one after another.

Hawke's expression was strange.

Gwen's ears perked up as she listened intently to the argument between a man and a woman coming from a nearby room, while she spoke softly to herself.

"Hawk, do you know what the biggest surprise of this space trip is?"

"do not know."

"The universe speaks English, that's the biggest surprise."

"it is good……"

"Shh!"

Before Hawke could speak, Gwen, listening intently to the fading argument in the nearby room, quickly shushed him and then continued listening attentively.

Seeing this, Hawke shook his head and chuckled helplessly.

If Gwen had used even a fraction of her interest in gossip to focus on her hearing, she would probably realize by now that her hearing is far beyond what an ordinary person should possess.

after all……

Their room was on the far left of the palace, while Star-Lord and Gamora's room was on the far right.

but!
Hawke looked at his wife, who was listening intently to the gossip, and made no move to offer any advice.

He wanted to see when Gwen would find out.

soon.

The argument between Star-Lord and Gamora ended with Star-Lord saying, "I finally found my family, how can you not understand?" and Gamora calmly replying, "You already have a family."

True heartbreak is never expressed through loud arguments, but rather through calm words.

So after Gamora said that, she turned around and left the room, leaving Star-Lord alone.

Gwen, having finished eavesdropping on the gossip, blinked, came to her senses, and looked at Hawke with a sense of relief.

"I'm so glad we didn't argue about these issues."

"When have we ever argued?"

Hawke smiled slightly, then looked at Gwen: "But do you know what we should do next?"

Gwen smiled brightly.

"You should get to work."

"Yes."

"Go ahead, I don't like this place, come back sooner rather than later."

"As you command, ma'am."

"..."
