Fight

As soon as the portal closed behind me, I shifted my senses so that they only concentrated on the people I was about to fight, since I'd need every advantage I had if my bluff had to be believable.

Within a second, I had to begin dodging a spear aimed at my throat. With a shift to my center of balance, I leaned back and used the barest amount of strength to redirect the spear, which barely missed me.

That gave me the time to take a quick look at my surroundings before the combat restarted. I was in the Inhuman throne room, and the closest guard had already crossed over to my location by the time that I had walked out of the portal. Two others were about to reach me, one with a spear and the other with a battle axe. Out of the stronger Inhumans, I saw Alaris and Karnak about to move in; however, BlackBolt stopped Karnak and let Alaris come after me.

3rd POV

With a little bit of thinking, Blackbolt came to the conclusion that this intruder might be someone who has gone through the process of becoming an Inhuman recently and came here to ask them for help.

So he decided to subdued him first and listen to him later to find out what he wants.

1st POV

By the time I saw this, I had dodged two more thrusts on pure instinct. As I leaned my right shoulder back to dodge another jab, I used my left hand to redirect the second spear from the guard, who had now joined it. As soon as the guard pulled back, I tightened my grip just below the spear tip and, in an impressive display of acrobatics, did what would be called a handstand on the handle. For the tiniest moment, the guard's eyes widened, but then his face met my foot with enough strength to knock him out. Using his face as a springboard, I launched myself forward at the just-reaching guard with the axe, knocking him out with a cross kick to his temple in mid-air.

That left me with the original guard and Alaris to deal with. That meant I had to first deal with the guard and then Alaris, since dealing with Alaris while another combatant was still active would be suicide.

Without a thought, I picked up the axe that was still in the process of falling along with its owner and, with a heave, launched it in the direction of Alaris, who was almost there, and then immediately took on the first soldier.

With a jab, he hit the man's shoulder, and in the pause that he gained, he hit him in the jugular with just enough force to knock him out.

With a twist of his body, he dodged Alaris' punch and countered with an elbow strike on his back. Alaris dodged by speeding up instead of slowing down, moving in the range of the strike and then outside.

Famed Inhuman powers indeed. He came in with a low sweep, to which I jumped a step back and reacted with a kick aimed at his head. He dodged it by leaning back a few degrees, and taking my exposed knee and leg as an opening, he tried to jab at the back of my knee.

It would have disabled my joint from moving if I had not expected it.

Immediately, using all the strength I could muster, I bent my leg and hit his palm with my heel. While it did hurt me, it was also a move that surprised him.

Using my off-balance to my advantage, I swung my body and grabbed his neck in a choke hold. That also meant that I fell, and along with me, he did too, hitting the floor on our backs with a loud thud.

But that also meant that, for only two injuries, I now had Alaris in a choke hold. I gave it a second for Alaris to realize he couldn't break through.

I laughed once, my hair sticking to my forehead and sweat rolling off my body. "Now then, BlackBolt, how about we end this pretense and you ask your people to calm down? Then we can talk. If not, I can snap a neck faster than even you could stop me."

"It's enough. You can stop. Everyone get back to your place." said Medusa, with anger clearly visible in her tone.

The throne room, currently in a state of utter chaos, began to quiet down. In the silence that had been following Medusa's warning shout, everyone in the room observed the figure standing before the throne, and the tension within the air seemed to be on the verge of boiling over.

A feeling of foreboding quickly started growing stronger. This was because no one knew who this mysterious man was. There was only one thing for certain—this individual could only be called "a menace" by those in the room.

They looked at the intruder, who was strong enough to make a portal directly into the throne room of Attilan even after the strong defense of Attilan's four walls.

"King Blackbolt, I am Magnus, a human from Earth. You were already aware of my presence on the moon, just as I was aware of yours. Even though I shouldn't have interfered in your matters, I have no choice but to do this as I want to talk to you about something important related to Inhumans." said Magnus as he looked straight into the eyes of Blackbolt and Medusa, who was standing to the left of Blackbolt, her hair floating slightly, ready to attack Magnus at any given moment. She understood the dangers of talking to this particular stranger, so she kept her distance from him.

Blackbolt immediately knew with whom he was dealing; he was the person who had come to Moon a year ago. They felt his presence when he came but couldn't find it afterwards. He decided to give him some time to explain himself, as he had confidence in his and his subject's ability to take him down if necessary.

He gestured with his hands in sign language and conveyed his thoughts to Medusa to ask the intruder about his purpose for coming here, and it would be best if she remained patient and did not engage him yet. She understood him and nodded her head, indicating to Blackbolt that she understood.

The intruder wasn't intimidated by the Inhuman King, so he either was a fool or had abilities that made him confident, and with the way he entered the throne room, it was sure he was not a fool and had strong abilities to back up his confidence.

While they were waiting for Magnus to start explaining himself, Blackbolt sent orders to the telepath to try to put the intruder to sleep, but the telepath replied that this intruder seemed to have some powers of his own that stopped his powers from working on him. Knowing this, Blackbolt asked the telepath to monitor the intruder all the time and tell him if he lied. And then he waited for the intruder to speak.
