The Omnipotent Green Hat

[NOAH'S POV]

It was silent.

Dead silent.

Only the sounds of the morning waves from the ocean could be heard.

My words seemed to have shifted the atmosphere to an unprecedented state.

It was understandable, yeah.

How would you react when someone shamelessly proclaims that he will steal your wife right in front of your face?

Even the ones experiencing such an event will likely be dumbfounded by your level of ridiculousness and... commendable courage.

To be honest, it didn't matter since it was me who had spoken those words without withholding anything back.

I was unrestrained and I could say anything I wanted because I could.

Being straightforward and making your intentions known to people was good sometimes.

And maybe add a little mix of shamelessness.

Although I respected Reed Richards's Intelligence as a human, it didn't mean that I valued him more than that.

He was simply monkish beyond that high-level IQ.

How can you have such a beautiful wife and neglect her and your kid?

I remember Reed Richards immersing himself in scientific experiments during his wedding day, like how?

It's for the best that I steal Sue from her like the bastard I was.

He was a cunt.

I was doing the universe a favor, yeah a favor it was.

Anyway, sooner or later they would have broken up.

Reed Richards was a maniac and has shown unhealthy fatherly love to his son Franklin in some instances.

In the comics, he used one of his inventions "The Coma Cannon" to put the unstable Franklin in a coma.

This was something that possibly led to one of the many breakups between him and Sue.

"What did you just say?!" Reed's anger flared, probably feeling disrespected as a man.

His face was vividly red due to anger and his body seemed unstable, possibly wanting to go into plasticity mode.

Despite the fury in him, he seemed to be holding back and stayed rational.

That was who Reed Richards was, a pacifist and somehow someone who looked at the bigger picture.

Calling him a pacifist was somehow excess though since the guy could destroy billions of lives during universal incursions without thinking twice.

Even a pacifist has a bottom line, right?

"You heard me right, smartass."

"You are about to be cucked."

"I am planning on creating a nice green hat for you."

With one of my hands in my pocket, I slightly raised the other one as a nice green hat appeared out of nothing and hovered above it.

I was truly tasting his patience.

His legs wobbled when he saw what I did.

He nearly lost his stability.

My actions affected him but it seems he was still not planning to do anything.

I decided to read his thoughts a little bit.

What could he be thinking when I am blatantly trampling on his masculine pride?

'Shit, shit, shit!'

'I want to destroy his existence but I can't deduce his overall capabilities."

'What can I do to a higher being?'

'If I had the time for preparation, I could have created something that could trap him or send him t-'

'Yeah, that's brilliant.'

'I will send him to the negative zone or the Quantum Realm.'

'I don't see myself winning against him.'

'Mathematically, the probability of me winning is zero."

'Fuck!'

'I will try anything to get out of this difficult situation!'

Hehe, wow, it's truly just wow.

Destroy my existence?

Trapping me in the Quantum Zone or the Negative Zone?

Did he think I was Galactus or The Sentry?

What was that?

Was Reed Richards always this funny?

Sue Storm stared at me hard, wary that I would do something to them.

"Noah, let them leave."

"Why are you terrifying these helpless people?"

"They only came for their son, not for you to meddle in their family affairs."

This time it was Wanda that spoke.

She looked at me with a not-so-happy expression.

She looked wrong.

I flashed a smile her way. "How can I not meddle in their affairs when someone had just called me daddy."

Wanda exclaimed in surprise, "You... I honestly don't know what to say."

"Weren't you the one who was previously scared to death when you were called like that?"

I put on a fake apologetic look as if I was finally realizing my mistake.

"Babe, don't worry I am now enlightened about my role as Franklin's daddy."

Wanda and Sue's mouths were wide open in awe of my shameless words while Franklin just bared his white teeth with a foolishly happy expression on his face.

As for Reed... well, you could imagine his expression.

"Franklin, who is your daddy, me or Reed Richards here?" I put on an angelic expression while pointing at myself and then Reed.

"It is you. You are my daddy."

Franklin replied without further ado.

Hehe, clever boy.

Reed looked at his son who was openly disregarding him as the rightful biological father.

He was surely hurt and a pitiful expression showed on his weary face.

At that moment, he seemed to have realized what had made his son disregard him... It was his negligence as a father.

He hadn't taken his role dutifully as he had always been immersed in science experiments and inventions.

While Reed Richards was wallowing in self-pity, I stared into Susan's eyes and telepathically sent a message to her mind.

Even though she had guarded her mental domain with a psychic forcefield, it was so easy for me to bypass such weak defenses.

'I will show you what would happen to your son if you will continue staying with that nerdy bastard.'

Her reaction was as aspected as she responded very carefully. 'My psychic defenses seem useless in front of you.'

'It is disconcerting for real.'

'What troubles me is why I should trust a Devil like you?'

I chuckled telepathically. 'Because you should probably do so.'

'And... you don't have an option of refusing."

'Okay, I-I will trust you just a little since it concerns my son.'

'Then lemme show you what the future beholds, all possibilities and events will unfold like an open book in front of your pretty eyes, Susan."

Oh, dear Sue, you are already under my grasp but first...

I pulled her consciousness into the future and to make it more exciting, I recreated realities from the comics and showed her how Franklin suffers throughout.

I know I was being kind of manipulative but who can really blame a man on a mission?

I showed her the future Adult Franklin Richards and how he's killed off by the One Below All.

That's right I showed her the tragic fate of Franklin in all timelines but I knew she would mostly be concerned with how Reed affected her son.

His negligence, miscommunication... there was a funny future where Reed totally ignores a fully naked Sue and instead focuses on his work.

Honestly, did the guy have some erectile dysfunction, or was his dick full of plasticity?

It was super weird just imagining it.

Since I didn't want to overload Susan's mind, I cut off the flashing events.

'I hope you have seen enough, Sue.'

'Is all of that real, Devil?'

Her voice was shaky as if she was on the verge of spilling tears.

'Why would I need to lie to a hot lady like you?'

'They are all true since they all fall under the realm of possibility.'

'Although the future is never set in stone, sometimes it just remains unchangeable.'

'How the future progresses is mainly affected by a person's way of thinking, actions, and decisions.'

'Your relationship with Reed Richards is honestly, I don't know... I don't understand it.'

'So many breakups and tragedies. Sue, aren't I the perfect choice for you? Of course, I am.'

'All my women are powerful and are responsible for their own fates.'

'Come to me, Sue.'

'I will give you the ultimate pleasure that you have been missing out from your spineless husband.'

Susan didn't reply and only looked at Reed Richards.

Her pretty blue eyes were slightly red due to the emotions bubbling up inside of her.

"Reed, I don't think I will be returning with you. Bid my farewells to the Fantastic Four and the Illuminati."

"Tell Johnny I will visit him if I can."

And without waiting for him to reply, Sue carried Franklin and came towards me.

"I have already made my decision."

"I want to know what you can do, Devil."

"Or were just spewing nonsense?"

I chuckled lightly while looking down into her ocean eyes. "You simply talk too much."

I was taller than her so it was expected.

Her eyes shone with a lustrous light and she unconsciously bit her lower lip.

"Then make me shut up."

Damn, we were openly flirting without caring about our surroundings.

"I will, cupcake," I said in a deep voice while brushing a strand of blonde hair behind her ear.

"Soon but first... Let's send our dear Reed home," I then looked at the dumbfounded and heartbroken man.

He was still in a state of disbelief that his wife and child have already left him for another man.

He looked powerless and defeated.

I appeared next to his unmoving figure and put a green hat on his head just for future reference, hehe.

With an evil smile on my smile, I started spouting shit like a system AI in my previous world's stories.

"Congratulations host, you are now the supreme owner of the Omnipotent Green Hat."

"You have met the conditions to be sent back to your own reality."

"Congratulations again for being cucked."

Then with a pat on his shoulder, I warped his entire existence back to his Home Universe.

Sadly, he didn't return by [The Bridge], his space-time circular machine which he had previously used to come to Marvel Prime.

When I looked back at the two women, I was surprised when a pulsating chaos wave was sent toward me.

Oh my, it seems my Wanda was pissed off by my depraved ass.

Oh, Wanda, I am sorry for being a bastard but It honestly can't be helped.

Now how to deal with her?

___

Outside the Marvel Multiverse, Beyond all realms of existence, in a seemingly infinite-dimensional white void,

A middle-aged man dressed in a white tracksuit could be seen sitting cross-legged with a smile on his face.

His seemingly all-knowing eyes were staring at the Foreign Multiverse of Marvel, peering across transfinite layers upon layers of dimensions and realms and locking onto a singular existence.

"Humanity is truly interesting."

"I want to test this person."

"Maybe he will be the one to entertain me."

"It seems my uncountable years of loneliness are coming to an end."

With those words, he withdrew his eyes and later on closed them as if nothing had happened.

Whatever he was planning only himself knew but of course... also another being.

___

At the same time, at the very bottom layer of reality, underneath everything, green gamma radiations could be seen manifested everywhere.

This was the deepest part of the Actual Hell, a place of True malevolence that was infinitely way beyond that of Mephisto's Hell Dimension.

A dark, malevolent entity lacking a physical form but was instead made up of metaphysical aspects of reality suddenly roared so wildly that the Below Place started trembling.

It wasn't known whether the entity was happy, angry, or sad.

But only one word could be used to describe its mighty roars...

They were full of hate, grudges, and destruction.

Then a loud sinister voice was heard all over the desolate realm.

"I have found the perfect candidate to host my powers."

"Kekeke, I meant to possess."

"This hate, this malevolence I feel... soon I will usurp 'you' and take what is rightfully mine."

"This Multiverse shall only have me as the Supreme Being and Absolute Ruler."

"All of existence shall plummet down to me, for I am..."

"THE ONE BELOW ALL!"
