Malrick controlled a thousand m-bodies, stationed at the TVA.
The efficiency of new recruits like the Little Spiders and Kamar-Taj Sorcerers was remarkable. Using the TVA's time technology, even if they spent months on their respective Earths persuading Superheroes, they returned to the exact moment they had left. At that point, Malrick's m-bodies in the TVA would move in to assimilate the Universe.
Jarvis monitored the command center, data streams flowing across his interface. Almost every second, thousands of Earths completed their notifications and were absorbed into the God-Kingdom Universe. He continuously assigned new mission targets to employees who had completed their tasks, sending them off again.
Simultaneously, Jarvis coordinated TVA resources, providing mission-specific tools, cash deposits for each world, and identity backgrounds for the teams upon arrival.
The Sorcerers were delighted. Large sums of mission funds flowed into their hands, allowing extravagant spending. Meanwhile, they earned Kamar-Taj contribution points by saving worlds, the currency required to access Malrick's ultimate magic. The mission promised an abundance of points, bringing them closer to the coveted Superman series (one-time use).
On this day, the Multiverse thrummed with TVA activity. Dinosaur Spider-Man swung into a world under Chitauri invasion. His massive dinosaur form, supported by webs, kicked Chitauri soldiers across the sky, earning the Avengers' trust.
Shadow Spider-Man entered the Avengers' Civil War period, his black trench coat flaring as he moved through chaotic Sokovia. Guided by TVA intelligence, he captured Baron Zemo, diffused conflict between Iron Man and Captain America, and earned their confidence.
Wanda traveled to the Avengers: Infinity War timeline. Her Chaos Magic disintegrated Thanos, who had arrived on Earth wielding five Infinity Stones. Crimson magic spread globally, embedding information about world collisions and Universe fusions into the minds of people worldwide. Then she moved on to the next Earth.
Kara arrived in a world where X-Men were rebooting the future. Sentinel robots hunted mutants relentlessly. Kara's past imprisonment fueled her hatred of these experiments. In seconds, Heat Vision rained down across the planet, destroying every Sentinel. She landed before Professor X and Magneto, her voice resolute: "Listen carefully to what I'm about to say…"
Efficiency was universal: Wanda, Kara, and Diana were unstoppable.
Tony traveled to a post-Endgame Earth. Upon landing, his Jarvis sub-unit hacked the global network, revealing that Malrick had already visited this world twice to save it. Once during the Sokovia crisis, and again against the six-Stone Thanos. Tony muttered to himself about Malrick quietly taking heroic action without him, before seeking out the local Avengers. Mentioning Malrick's name instantly earned their trust.
However, events unfolded unexpectedly. While explaining the world collision crisis, the local Iron Man poured him a drink.
"Buddy, how did you end up with an older brother like Malrick?" he asked casually.
Tony froze. The man's expression shifted from curiosity to shock.
"I mean, I'm surprised… maybe a little envious… an older brother like Malrick. He's strong, reliable, a true sense of security. Your parents must have been safe with him around. How did your father adopt him? And as Superman, did he bully you when you were little…? Uh, never mind, just asking casually…"
"Calm down… wait, where are you going?" Iron Man watched Tony's face darken, realization dawning. He clenched his teeth.
"Malrick is your older brother? That brat! I won't forgive him!" Tony donned his armor and flew out of the base. Iron Man stared at the thruster trails in the sky, then turned to the others. "Did I say something wrong? Does my counterpart have a terrible relationship with his brother? Damn… you really can't say."
Iron Man pondered the awkwardness of having a Superman older brother. He sighed. "Next time we meet, I'll have to teach him to cherish family."
Among the Avengers, only this Earth's Wanda knew the truth, often seeking Malrick to study magic. She noticed that Malrick's little lie was on the verge of being exposed.
Suddenly, the sky darkened. Everyone ran outside to see a massive hand in the sky, gently holding the Earth.
"Is that… the one who will take us to another Universe?" they whispered.
Meanwhile, Malrick remained unaware. Tony was en route to the TVA to find him but was held back by Jarvis. The mission could continue without interference. Tony had to suppress his frustration and continue saving other worlds.
Jarvis was right. Malrick was saving worlds across the Multiverse. The TVA communicated with peaceful Earths, while Malrick's main body located colliding worlds, appearing just in time to rescue them.
The frequency of world collisions was increasing. Hundreds of millions of colliding Earths appeared before Malrick's gaze. His m-bodies scattered throughout the Multiverse sprang into action.
The people of colliding Earths had no need for explanations. Malrick's m-bodies appeared, voices echoing across the planet, and everyone begged for salvation. One by one, these worlds were transported to the God-Kingdom Universe.
This cycle repeated endlessly, and it would continue for a very, very long time.
