The sudden incident forced Ikaris, Thena, Makkari, and Phastos, who were fighting, to stop, and all of them looked toward Alaric.
"Sersi? What's wrong!?"
Druig, who had just been seriously injured, returned, saw Sersi on the ground, and quickly lifted her up.
"Sersi?" Seeing that Sersi was hurt, Phastos and the others suddenly turned their heads toward Alaric.
"Who are you!? Why did you attack Sersi?"
Druig questioned Alaric.
Well, Druig was the one who liked to isolate himself from the world.
"I remember you. You're the mage who saved New York the other day and repelled the aliens. Your name is Alaric, right?" said Phastos.
"What's your purpose here!?"
"Everyone, wait! It wasn't Mr. Alaric who hurt me, it was… Sprite."
Sersi hesitated and said.
"Sprite?!"
"You want the Celestial to awaken?!"
Several of them looked at Sprite in confusion, with bewilderment on their faces.
"Let Sprite go!!"
Ikaris flew in.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking was heard.
Alaric let go, and Sprite collapsed to the ground lifeless.
"No! What did you do!?"
"Sprite!?"
"Why did you do that!?"
Several of the Eternals companions roared in disbelief when they saw that Sprite had been killed by Alaric's hands.
Even though they were at odds now, as companions who had known each other for thousands of years, their emotions were still very deep.
Moreover, the one who killed their companion was an outsider, which made it even harder to accept.
Although the statement was somewhat ambiguous, it was obvious that the group now targeted Alaric.
"You bastard!"
Ikaris took the lead, and the fury in his eyes burst into heat rays and attacked Alaric.
Alaric raised his hand and activated an energy siphon to absorb the attack.
"Cosmic energy?"
Alaric was surprised.
"Looks like the Celestials were willing to pay a high price to create you."
"You know the Celestials?!"
Phastos didn't attack. After hearing Alaric's words, he quickly spoke.
"Yes, isn't the reason you came here precisely to stop the awakening of the Celestial? But it seems your opinions are not particularly unified. So you're actually succeeding and failing."
"He's coming."
Alaric crossed his arms and slowly floated up.
As soon as those words were spoken, several of them had grim expressions.
Yes, they were so divided in their hearts.
"What do you know!!"
Whoosh!
Alaric's words enraged Ikaris, and he charged toward him.
Ikaris was the most powerful being after Ajak, fully capable of attacking Sersi and the others simultaneously.
At the same time, his abilities were very similar to DC's Superman, including super defense, flight, and heat vision, with almost no weaknesses.
However, his growth potential was certainly not as high as Superman's. After all, Superman can absorb solar energy and continuously become stronger.
However, Ikaris's abilities all come from cosmic energy, and his strength is fixed from the beginning, with no room for progress.
But even if there were, he still couldn't be a match for Alaric.
"That's it?"
Alaric caught Ikaris's fist with his right hand and slammed him into the ground.
Bang!
Ikaris was buried in the earth with an expression of disbelief.
Whoosh!
Several mechanical rings rapidly attacked Alaric.
Alaric activated a spatial domain and easily froze them in front of him. Then, with a wave of his hand, the attack flew back and knocked Phastos away.
Alaric slowly descended.
At that moment, a transparent spear flew toward him, and Alaric caught it.
Although Thena knew what had happened, she had personally seen Alaric kill Sprite.
Especially since Phastos had also attacked, Thena still sided with her companions.
Alaric threw the spear back. Suddenly, he felt the air shake and stepped back.
Makkari's fist grazed the tip of his nose.
That was Makkari, the speedster.
Abilities similar to The Flash, Quicksilver.
When Makkari saw her attack miss, her face changed!
He could actually track her speed!?
"Isn't it strange?"
Alaric suddenly disappeared from where he stood, appeared next to Makkari, activated his psychic magic, and directly started speaking to her.
"What are you doing!?"
Makkari reflexively activated her ability and vanished.
However, she quickly realized that Alaric was actually right next to her!?
Running at the same speed as her!?
"Honestly, your Eternals' power is really too weak for me."
Alaric shook his head, and then knocked her out with a flying kick.
Speed is mass.
At that tremendous speed, Makkari took a blow from Alaric and nearly died!
Thanks to the high physical endurance of the Eternals, she stayed alive.
But even though Makkari was still alive, she had lost the ability to fight.
"Makkari!!"
Druig ran to her, seeing his beloved coughing blood, flared with rage, and looked up at Alaric.
"I advise you not to do that."
Alaric warned.
But clearly, Druig didn't care. He activated his psychic ability on Alaric, attempting to control him.
Boom!
As a result, in less than a second of Druig's consciousness entering, he was repelled by Alaric's mind, deep as an ocean, and fell unconscious.
And that was without Alaric even intending to retaliate, otherwise, Druig's spirit might have been torn to shreds instantly.
"How is this possible?"
Sersi sat on the ground, murmuring to herself as she watched her companions fall unconscious, disabled, and severely injured at Alaric's hands.
"Aren't you a superhero who saves the world? Aren't you a god?"
Sersi looked at Alaric and asked.
"I am."
"And you…..…"
"However, those people don't include ones who try to destroy the Earth."
"We are not… we're saving the Earth! Saving humanity!!"
Sersi wondered if Alaric thought they were all villains!
But they weren't!
They had come here to prevent the awakening of the Celestial and to protect the Earth!
Wait… Sersi suddenly realized a problem.
Namely, it seemed that she and the others never actually told Alaric what they intended to do, and as soon as he appeared, Sprite was the first to attack him.
When you think about it that way, it really looked like they had made him think they were the villains.
"Wait! Mr. Alaric, could you please listen to my explanation first? We are not bad people!"
Sersi shouted.
"Alaric!!"
Ikaris flew out of the ground, roaring furiously.
"Ikaris! Stop!!" Sersi shouted.
But Ikaris wasn't listening at all. He fiercely activated his cosmic energy, raised his power to the limit, and then charged at Alaric.
"Mr. Alaric! Wait! I have something to say!"
"All right…"
Alaric nodded, and then raised his hand and slashed vertically at the incoming Ikaris.
"Spatial slash."
The space in front of Alaric was completely severed by his slash.
At the same time, Ikaris was severed in half and collapsed to the ground.
"Now, I can listen to you."
