Kang -2

After an unknown time, Phil and his family finally decided to explore the area around them but found that this planet or series of interconnected planets was under war.

So, Phil and others carefully avoided the area under attack and came to a planet filled with water.

Here, Phil tried to channel the Quantum energy and found it abundant in nature.

The family surrounded him in a circle, and he focused hard and kept sensing the planet where they trained in Quantum Realm. This was the place where he recently left a lot of energy in training, and he can find his energy source better.

However, even though the idea was good, but the reality was not so favourable to their small family.

Attempts after attempts failed and they spent almost a week in this water world but Phil still failed to find any connection to the Quantum Realm. Thankfully they could survive on the strange beings living inside the water but this was not a long-term solution.

"It's not working Melina. I can't find a way to take us back. Somehow this will take time. How long…even I am not sure."

At night, when Phil and Melina were together, Phil shared his thoughts with Melina.

Melina knew the situation but didn't blame Phil for this.

They are still alive, and all are together and that is what that matters.

"Just keep trying. We have all the time in the universe." Melina said before giving her husband a kiss and encouraging him.

Chronopolis

Terminatrix kept checking multiple data files and finally, a smile bloomed on her stone-cold face.

"Ha ha ha…. I caught the flies that escaped once. Ha ha ha…"

Terminatrix carefully picked herself up from her chair and dressed herself. Her armour rubbed against her skin and gave her bolts of pain.

After she failed in her last task, her master chained her on the punishment table and whipped her enough to leave her skin with marks of her punishment. It will take months or even years before her skin will revert back to normal and these marks will remind her of her failure.

It was the humiliation and punishment from the last task that kept her focused and the fire of vengeance against the agents of chaos burned inside her deeply.

She must find this group and she will not hesitate to kill anyone that is not necessary for their master. However, before killing, she must torture them 10 times harder than the torture she went through.

Soon their team and army assembled. She stood on the podium and told them loudly

"We are going to capture some targets our master wants. There can be no failure and no mistake. I will open the portal near them and we must attack and capture them alive at the fastest speed.

Is there any question?"

She asked but no one in the crowd had the guts to respond.

Terminatrix had gone crazy in the last few weeks and looking at her bloodshot eyes and distorted expressions, only a fool would question her.

"Good, then be ready."

Terminatrix flashed an evil smile before she picked up her tablets, pushed some buttons and soon space in front of them started collapsing.

A space-time tunnel soon formed like a door and the Anachronauts along with the small army entered this place.

However, the moment they crossed the place, they were hit by energy beams and powerful energy bombs.

Enraged at the attack, the Anachronatus simply slaughtered each and every living being they found in the microverse before they moved closer and closer to their target location.

The blood and bodies they left behind were enough to create mountains and rivers in this barren planet.

The screams of dying microbeings in this dimension were loud enough to alert Phil and their family who were hiding in the Waterworld.

"I will go and check. All of you hide and do not come out until I say. Remember, even If I am alone, I can fight and escape in Quantum Realm alone but you must never come out. Okay?"

Phil questioned them before getting a nod in the answer from everyone.

He bent his legs and then flew away in the sky. Following the cries of dying beings, he found the scene of slaughter and mass murder. However, before he could say or do anything, Terminatrix located him on her device.

"He is there. Up there. Apocryphus attack!"

Terminatrix ordered her team and Apocryphus glanced in that particular. Noticing the quantum energy signature, he grinned.

"BBOOOM..."

With a supersonic speed, Apocryphus attacked Phil and before Phil could respond, he was hit in his stomach with a powerful punch.

With a single punch, Phil crashed on the ground before bouncing and crashing and bouncing again like a ball and skidding to hundreds of kilometres in this microworld. Somehow, he was thrown from the barren world to the edge of Waterworld with one punch.

The power of a true Eternal could never be underestimated.

However, Phil got up within seconds and before the second punch could smash his face, he caught the left hook of Apocryphus.

"That hurt. I guess this removes any chances of peaceful talking. Right?"

Phil said before smashing the shocked face of Apocryphus with his right punch.

"SMASH!"

With a huge force, the future eternal was simply smashed deep into the mountain behind him and he had to shake his head before he could see the enemy again. However, what he saw made him panic and he tried to escape but the quantum beams hit him directly.

"BOOOMMMM!"

Phil had concentrated his quantum energy into a small thin laser beam and used it to attack the enemy. This attack successfully landed on the enemy's chest nearly cutting him in half.

Phil calmly watched as Apocryphus, cut in half fell down and golden energy flew outside his body.

The death of an Eternal was shocking and powerful enough to alert the forces of Anachronauts and they hurriedly ran in that direction. It has been a long time since anyone managed to kill any member of their team.

Phil noticed the energy signatures approaching and decided to leave the area but before he could fly away, all the space around him was solidified and turned into a shield.

Phil unaware of this anomaly hit the shield and was thrown back to the ground.
