"Victor von Doom."
"You calculated everything, yet overlooked one final possibility... yourself!"
At Abraxas's declaration, Miles's expression shifted on Earth, and he instinctively looked around.
High in the mountains of Latveria, Reed and the others were tensely watching Doom confront Abraxas. The newly recovered Silver Surfer also looked up at the sky, his expression blank.
This is... the moment before the end.
I'm back...
After confirming the current point in time, Miles hesitated no longer. He tore open a portal and rushed through it.
In the depths of space, Doom paused upon hearing Abraxas's words, then stopped hesitating.
"That possibility does not exist."
"Doom does not make mistakes!"
As he spoke, Doom moved to press the button on the Ultimate Nullifier.
But at that moment, Miles abruptly appeared before Doom.
"Stop, Doom!"
"This universe has already been destroyed once more!"
"What?"
Doom's expression changed when he saw Miles appear.
Having gained Galactus's power, he could already sense certain information beyond the boundaries of reality. In his eyes, Miles clearly did not belong to the current point in time!
Could it be...
Doom instinctively turned to look back at Earth.
Only then did he discover that, within his perception, the planet before him was in an extraordinarily bizarre state.
It still existed, yet within the deeper structure of reality, Earth had already "died."
"..."
Across Earth, the entire world suddenly flickered soundlessly.
The mountains of Latveria lost all color without warning.
"What's happening?"
Susan and Reed cried out. Doom Castle, which had been whole before their eyes, instantly turned into a shattered metal structure floating in the dark universe.
The solid rock beneath Ben's feet vanished, replaced by weightless debris.
But in less than half a second—
"Pssh!"
Sunlight returned.
The mountains, the sky, the atmosphere—everything returned to normal
