I gave the Time Stone back to the Ancient One, already done with what I had needed it in the first place, I couldn't help but smile.

In the span of a week, I had gained eighteen levels.

By just equipping two infinity stones.

It was clear, what I had to do next.

I had to find the next stone to equip.

The mind stone according to my universal map was with Thanos.

Meaning that stone was currently a hard no.

The Reality Stone was nowhere to be found.

The Soul Stone, well, I was not willing to pay the price.

Which left only one stone for the taking, the power stone located in Morag.

It seems I would be stealing the stone before Quill, how sad, and by sad I mean terribly great.

"Thanks," I thanked the Ancient One, who simply smiled at me.

"Nothing to thank me for, Mr. Walker," The Ancient One smiled, "I just happy to help a friend,"

I looked at her, images of Dormammu flashing before my eyes as I came to the resolution, that I would help her, that I would recover her soul, one way or another, as thanks to all she has done for me, for Emily, for us.

"See ya later," I waved at her one last time, opening the portal to Morag.

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As soon I stepped into the portal to Morag, instead of finding something solid to step on, I found falling into the sea with a loud splash, most in this situation would've tried to swim into the surface, but for a moment I did nothing but allow the sea to drag me into the abyss.

I was processing the fact I had committed a big stupid mistake, I mean, I had access to basically all knowledge about all planets, and I had still failed to check what was I to expect on the planet, in other circumstances such a mistake could very well be lethal.

Finally, over my own stupidity, I let out of breath under the dark sea of Morag and used my telekinesis to fly out of the deep sea, as I opened my map to get some information about the planet.

Something I should've done a few minutes ago.

Oh well.

[Morag X78

Morag is an oceanic planet located in the Andromeda Galaxy at the Eclipsing Binary Star M31V J00443799+4129236. Most of the current inhabitants of this planet are rodent-like creatures and aquatic crocodile-like creatures in one of the early stages of evolution.

History: Thousands of years ago, Morag was the home of an advanced and flourishing civilization, that was wiped out by a global catastrophe. Sometime prior to their demise, the inhabitants of Morag built a temple to guard the Orb, an artifact that contained an Infinity Stone within it. Following the catastrophe, Morag became a desolated planet with nothing but seas. However, every three hundred years, the sea lowers just enough and the Temple is made accessible.

Many call this planet simply Morag, but in reality, its real name is Morag X78 as it's the 78th planet with Morag as a name.

The other 77 planets that share the same name are currently desolated from all life.]

"That explains the water," I chuckled.

"Rrr!"

A growl?

Now that I think about it, I feel something shaking on my leg.

Following the sound, and the shaking sensation I found a shark-sized animal that looked like a crocodile biting my leg, and… I'll be honest, I wasn't sure how to react.

I mean, I had the equivalent of a shark biting me on the leg, and yet I had felt nothing.

[Lipotrius LV 30]

"I am not food," I told the croco-shark, kicking him or her into the sunset, I wasn't sure about its gender, and quite honestly, I didn't care, I mean, I came here for stone, anything else besides that was not important.

Leg free of the Croco-shark clutches, I used [Sight] to locate the Power Stone.

"Hmm," The Power Stone was underwater, a few thousand miles under the sea to be precise.

Maybe the Ancient One has a spell for that.

"Well, I guess I–" before I could finish that sentence, a portal opened in front of me, followed by a book hitting me in the face with a note attached to it.

~Mr. Walker, I am currently busy doing… magic stuff, so please use this book to help you in your underwater adventure, with love, the Ancient One.

P.S: Sorry for hitting you in the face.~

Amazon Prime, Ancient One department.

Snorting at that thought, I grabbed the book and inspected its contents.

[The Eldritch Arts - Barriers and their application underwater, by Yao

Do you wish to learn this book?

Yes/No]

Needless to say, I pressed yes.

[A new skill has been created.

Eldritch Pressure Barrier LV1 = A barrier capable of withstanding the might of the seas.

For each +1 atmosphere, the spell consumes 100 extra mana.

1000MP/S]

That should do.

With a smile and ready to collect what I had come to get, I activated the barrier and opened a to where the power stone was, this time willingly diving into the sea.
