Amelia looked at Ben and asked in a teasing tone, "You said, you will come in a few days. But how a few days turned into a whole month."
And soon, Ben started explaining to them about his adventure in Asgard.
And like that, a year has passed. Instead of travelling, Ben started living a normal life. With his wives and children.
During this time, he spends his time playing with his children. And also travelling between Asgard and Earth, to look over Sigurd, Hela and Sif.
But then his normal life stops, when Amelia and Mariam again go to additional training with the William family, to elevate their powers. Emma, Elizabeth, and Jean took charge of caring for the children.
Ben also started becoming bored to live a simple life, so he again became ready to embark on another round of Multiverse Travel.
Ethan also joined him, to live his own life. Soon, his Interstellar Harley roared to and after opening the portal, Ben dropped Ethan in Universe 121.
Where Ethan had founded and led the Revengers to safeguard America from various threats over the past two years.
And he continues his journey to another dimension.
Opening a portal, Ben Interstellar Harley leaves fire all the way, till he arrives in Universe 2248.
But seeing the situation of Universe 2248, he became sad. Because this Universe's humans have turned into animals.
Then he crossed another Universe. But again, he became sad, seeing the situation of this Universe. Because this was turned into the Death Universe by Sorcerer Supreme.
As Ben passed many Universes, he found many of the Universe's needed reset. He even didn't know what the Embodiments of the Universe was doing. If they didn't reset this Universe.
But he also has seen some simpler universes, including the Noir Universe, a captivating black and white world. Universe 65, on the other hand, was comparatively straightforward but featured Spider-Gwen as its prominent hero.
But when he arrived in the Universe 2149. He was shocked by seeing the scene in front of him. Because in this Universe, the superheroes have turned into Zombies.
There are the zombified versions of Captain America, Hulk, Wolverine, Iron Man, Thor, Giant Man, Dark Phoenix, Spider-Man, Luke Cage, Firelord.
Even villains like Gladiator and Thanos transformed into Zombies.
And he understood that this Universe needs a complete reset.
Meanwhile while Ben was noticing them, the zombies were also noticing him. The hunger-driven entities were ready to make him their next meal.
Hulk, looking at Ben, shouted, "Hulk's hungry, Hulk wants to eat him!" And he jumped towards Ben to eat him, and calm down his hunger.
But before Hulk goes to Ben, Giant Man intercepts Hulk from behind, restraining him. "No, Hulk, we'll leave him alive to continue breeding. After all, we have no more food left. Once he has more babies, we'll have more food," Giant Man explained his plan, viewing Ben as breeding food for them.
And soon different types of disagreement filled between the group of zombies. Spider-Man, unwilling to accept this proposal, launched an attack against Giant Man.
But before they fully got in clash, they heard a laughter. They looked and found Ben laughing at them.
Looking towards the Zombies, Ben told them, "So, you all want to eat me? Let's see."
He stopped his Interstellar Harley, activated the powers of the newly acquired Cosmic Holy Rider, the power which he had snatched from the Cosmic Ghost Rider.
He leaped down from his Interstellar Harley, with his Holy Chain, positioned himself in front of the approaching zombies.
Hulk shouted, "I'm going to eat you!" And jumped towards Ben.
But before Hulk reached Ben, Ben swung his Holy Chain, and caught the neck of Hulk. With a single, powerful motion, he snapped Hulk's neck, and then, utilizing his Holy Fire, reduced him to dust.
"What the fuck?" Everyone was shocked by seeing the scene. Not even a moment has passed. And the Hulk vanished from the layers of Earth.
"Since you all committed many sins, I will befall judgement on you and give you the punishment for your sin." Ben shouted looking at them.
He caught the Firelord and brought him in front of him. He holds Firelord's head and bring his face to his face staring in his eyes.
"See in my eyes, how many sins you have committed and repent for them," Ben shouted.
The Firelord started seeing the sins he committed after becoming zombies. And although Firelord was a being who can control fire. For first, from inside he started burning. And for the consequences of his actions, he is consumed by blue Holy Fire. In a matter of moments, Firelord crumbled to ashes.
Then Ben focused on Wolverine, and he also recognized, Wolverine has lost his healing powers after turning into a zombie.
He created a ball of Holy Fire, and pushed it into Wolverine's mouth, proclaiming, "Extinguished." Wolverine started burning from the inside, and soon he was reduced to ashes.
Ben continued his mission of purification, and Iron Man became the next sinner to face the cleansing power of Holy Fire. He released the Holy Fire on Iron Man, and soon Iron Man with his metallic body consumed by the Holy Fire.
"I knew this day would come, the day we'd have to face the consequences of becoming zombies," Peter commented, seeing the scene in front of him. The Holy Chain has captured him. And seeing he was going to burn, he didn't feel pain, but relief. Knowing he has harmed his loved ones. And he observed, this was not his turn, but it was Giant Man turned.
"You can't kill me, you're just my meal," Giant Man shouted, looking towards Ben.
Ben looked at him, and replied, "You're right, I'm not killing you. I'm purifying you."
He punched Giant Man, causing him to collapse to the ground. Then he created an axe made of Holy Fire and split Giant Man in two.
"You were once a hero, Giant Man. Remember the lives you saved and the hope you brought to people," Ben said to him.
As the Holy Fire began purifying, Giant Man started thinking about his past, till he became a zombie. He had a smile on his face, before burning completely.
Seeing the scene, many of the zombies were struggling to free themselves from the grip of the Holy Chain. And Gladiator succeeded in doing this.
But before he escaped from there, Ben caught him, and slammed him to the ground. He unleashed the cleansing Holy Fire, reducing Gladiator to ashes.
When Dark Phoenix found herself momentarily free, she attempted to take flight. However, Ben swiftly intercepted her, delivering a powerful punch that brought her back to the ground.
Remembering Jean from another universe is his wife. He gives a painless death to Jean. Meanwhile Dark Phoenix's powers were freed from there, and they went to search for the next potential host.
Ben released his grip on both Spider-Man and Luke Cage, capturing both of them by their necks with his hands.
Ben looked at Spider-Man and said with a tone of sadness.
"You know, Spidey, you've always been my favorite, but now you've changed."
"I know, I've become something I never wanted to be, and for the other zombies, you're their death. But for me, you're my savior, saving me from this damned situation. Please, end it," Spider-Man requested, seeking an end from the horror of his existence, where he had been forced to consume others.
"You still have control over yourself, but this virus has corrupted your body. Remember, you'll find a new life once all of this is over," Ben told him. And then he released the Holy Fire upon both Spider-Man and Luke Cage.
The purifying flames consumed them, leaving behind only ashes in their wake.
Seeing everyone was turned into ashes, Thanos confronted Ben and asked him, "Why are you killing us, if no one is here to witness your glory of killing us. Since, we have already killed all of the creatures."
"I know no one is alive, but as long as even a single pest exists in the universe, Universe 2149 can't reset itself. So, for this to happen, you need to be removed. But don't worry, since you are a Zombie, you can't die until your brain is extinguished. You are the third Thanos whose head will adorn my Interstellar Harley. You'll be alive and yearning for death," Ben explained.
He didn't know why he wanted Thanos's head put in his Interstellar Harley. Because, villian does this thing, not the good guy.
Maybe, after seeing the horror of Universe 666, he wants to decorate Thanos's head in his Interstellar Harley.
Ben severed the head of Thanos, and extinguished the rest of his body. And then he created a small Holy Fire that simultaneously regenerated and burned Thanos's head. Thus, Thanos will be trapped in the recycle of suffering.
He positioned the severed head of Thanos on the right handle of the Interstellar Harley. The Harley's handle extended, now adorned with three Thanos heads.
Then Ben unleashed the Holy Fire on the entire Earth. The Holy Fire has dual nature. It will heal the good people, while burning the sinner. And since in this Universe, only sinners present. Their fate has decided.
Captain America, Black Panther, Wasp, Hawkeye, Fabian Cortez, and other sinners faced the inevitable fate of being extinguished by the Holy Fire.
Seeing every sinner was extinguished. Ben retracted his Holy Chain, and it was put on the Interstellar Harley.
Seeing everything has turned into ashes, he sat on his Interstellar Harley. Last time he saw the scenery in front of him, and whispered.
"I hope you find peace in the afterlife."
Then Ben started his Interstellar Harley, and crossed into an unknown universe, leaving the echoes of Universe 2149 behind. The journey to explore the multitude of universes continued.
