Chapter 112

Time moves by quickly, and things were relatively peaceful as Cul made no movements after devouring Dormammu.

Of course Jane Foster was dead and the reality stone had been devoured by Cul increasing his power to an even higher level, so all that was left was for Thanos to bring the others to him.

( Serpent Realm)

Huge planets floated about each filled with unique life forms created by Cul and his creations, and in the middle of these planets an enormous Palace floated on a continent this was Cul's home and he was currently standing on the roof of his place taking in everything in his realm.

" How many years has it been?" Cul questioned aloud.

" It has been almost sixteen thousand years since then my love." Gaea's voice sounded as she appeared seemingly from the surrounding space itself.

" What's the matter my love, your emotions are in chaos." she said her voice filled with worry and surprise as she walked up behind him and embrace him.

" You're surprised by this turn of events?" Cul questioned as he continued looking at his creations.

" I am, all these years we have been together it is the first time I've seen you this hesitant after making a decision." Gaea says as she moves her hands from around Cul's chest and steps around looking him in the eyes while grabbing his two hands.

" It would be weird if I wasn't hesitant with my actions now, there is no longer any going back once I take the final step." says Cul.

" Isn't it too late for that my love? From the moment you devoured the space gem things were set with no way of changing them." Gaea says.

" That's true, I've put our family in danger of being completely wiped from existence aren't you a bit upset with my decision?" Cul asked.

" I'm not." Gaea answered without hesitation.

" I know what your real motivations for your current actions are, Cul Borson, as much as you have tried not to believe it but your motivation over the years has evolved." Gaea says as she smiles.

" From a cold-hearted, ambitious, decisive powerful young God, to wait you have become now you aren't the same person, you started with no responsibilities, now you have many, you started caring for no one, now you have a family the weight on your shoulders now is more than you have ever carried in your life." Gaea says as the smile on her face grew wider.

" The fact we have to have this conversation is proof enough that you have changed from who you were before, your motivation is no longer just your ambition to become the strongest or rule the universe, it's also to protect your family, to give us true safety which can alone be achieved when you are the strongest."

" So how could I be mad at what you are trying to do?" Gaea questioned.

" HAHAHAHA!!!!" Hearing Gaea's question Cul broke out in laughter.

" I really lucked out with you didn't I?"

" You did, count your lucky stars you have such an understanding and beautiful wife." Gaea says with a smile.

" I count them every day." Cul responds as he leans forward and the two kiss.

The kiss didn't last long, but it was enough as Cul stared into the eyes of his wife.

" What if I miscalculated?"

" You didn't."

" What if the unexpected happens?"

" You will handle it."

" What if I'm not strong enough?"

" You are the strongest."

" What if I fail?"

" You won't because you can't afford to, the end result will be a victory for us and our expanding family." Gaea says as she rubs her stomach.

" Another?" Cul questioned.

" Yeah."

Cul Looked at his pregnant wife and pulled her into his arms, as a God of fear Cul had never allowed himself to fear anything even now with the looming battle against TOAA he wasn't feeling fear, just hesitant if this was the best decision for his family.

But the previous hesitancy was now gone, Since Gaea knew why he had to do this, and supported his decision it was fine.

He would continue his plans even with the odds of things happening as he wants them to be being low, it really was too late to back out now anyway it was all or nothing.

Thanos was fast approaching earth he could feel it, he was only missing the space, time, and reality gems, he had everything else, once he touched down on earth his life would be done and the final stage would begin.

" Well my future queen of the universe, I promise you the position and the accompanying crown made from the body of the fallen ruler." says Cul as a smile appears on his face.

" Well, I look forward to it." Gaea responded also smiling.
