Altered Cosmos Chapter 167; Fish Bait
It’s been 2 months since Levi left his hometown and also 2 months since his Alana, Mary and Camie left in search of Agent Sphinx of the Erased for training.Luckily, since he left, his hometown was spared from any more attacks and the Index found out that Magus knew about Levi from one of the few agents he captured from Amanda’s rescue team. But since Magnus went to avenge his master who was found to be his former cell mate, Gabriel Norman who was attacked by Levi and a way of seeking respect from Gabriel, Magnus acted alone.If not for his selfish act, he would have most likely brought the whole Inflictor force including Rebirth which would have been terribly devastating to the simple refugee camp.So to avoid something like this again, Levi had been rotating between different hideouts and camps throughout these two months. But today, something changed……Levi, now dressed in the standard white Index suit, stares at the long wall mirror as he tests the flexibility of his gloved hands
Altered Cosmos Chapter 168; A Deadly Gamble
It’s not even been 5 minutes yet but Rebirth’s Homebase was already in total chaos. In one of the major control rooms, a group of uniformed enemy guards run around. Using the numerous security feed to collect information around the base and relay information to their defending comrades. A bald commanding officer stands in the middle of the room, his tensed arms folded with some veins bulging on his sweaty head as he shouts out to his men. “Inform Group 6B1 to pull back and assist 5C!” One of the guards quickly relays the command and the commanding officer watches on the monitor as a particular enemy group retreats from enemy fire and heads through a hallway… where they encountered even more Index forces which destroyed them in seconds. “Damn it.” The bald commander grumbled as he turns to another monitor and was about to shout another command but the team he intended to use were suddenly wiped out a series of golden energy slashes. The security feed then focuses on Arthur who l
Altered Cosmos Chapter 169; Built to Destroy
In the midst of a seemingly futile battle with his more powerful clone, Sparrow smirks confidently while his Replica raises a brow at him.“It looks like the concussion has finally set in because it sounded like you said that you found a way to me.” Zero Sparrow said and Sparrow’s grin widens. “Don’t get cocky because you got one good hit on me.”Sparrow chuckles a little before speaking. “Don’t get me wrong. My goal wasn’t to beat you with that punch… It was to confirm my suspicion.”“Suspicion?” Zero Sparrow asked and Sparrow narrows his eyes at it.“It had to do with what you said. That you were built to destroy us at our own game. In other ways, you were built to counter our normal fighting styles and gears.” Sparrow said before pointing at it with a smirk still on his face.“So… what if I ‘don’t’ fight how I normally would?” Zero Sparrow’s eyes widen in realisation, making Sparrow’s smile widen the more. “Now you’re getting it.”“So that’s why you attacked me yourself.” Zero Spar
Altered Cosmos Chapter 170; No Escape
In a familiar and partially destroyed large room, Flash gives a cocky laugh as he tosses aside the piece of his Replica’s clothing to the ground. Zero Flash narrows its eyes at Flash as it mumbles to itself. “Right before my gears hit him… he disappeared.” It mumbled to itself as it turns back to where Flash was some seconds ago. “It was like teleportation but…” It turns back to Flash with a glance at the piece of its clothing now on the ground. “How did you get over there?” It asked.Flash smirks as he answers. “I just went past you.”Zero Flash clenches its fists as it responds. “That’s impossible. I can go as fast as the speed of light and there’s no way you can move that fast.”“That’s what you think.” Flash chuckled as Flash releases another huge wave of energy and Zero Flash quickly releases its aura as well.But before it could react, an explosion occurs behind it and it turns… to see Flash now on the other side of the room, a hand on his head as he leans against the crumbled
Altered Cosmos Chapter 171; Back-Up
A physically drained Levi sits on the ground with eyes fixed on Francis’ motionless body in front of him before looking up to glare at Razor who smirks as he moves his fingers, causing the spears around him to suddenly spin rapidly. With a snap of his fingers, the spears zoomed forward just as Citadel releases a surge of energy that reinforces her barrier, causing the spears to screech against it. Razor clicks his tongue in annoyance while Thors grunts as he tries to break the now repaired barrier. “Why won’t this break?” He grumbled with each punch just as a hand grabs his arm. “Allow me.” The dral turns to see his fellow Inflictor, Magnus who releases his arm and moves in front of the barrier. “We meet again, Miss Amanda. I hope you’re ready to die this time.” Magnus said as he draws his fist back which suddenly grew in size. Citadel reinforces her barrier again but Magnus’ punch easily breaks through it. Amanda stumbles back before grunting as Magnus grabs her in his hand. W
Altered Cosmos Chapter 172; Reunite
As the Index and Inflictors continue to clash… Levi and Alana stand side by side with their eyes fixed on Rebirth and Razor several metres from them.“Alright then…” Levi grumbled as he activates his static shell just as Alana nudges his shoulder.“You better not die this time.” She said and Levi smirks at her… just before both jumping apart as an energy blast erupts between them.Rebirth now floating above, then fixes his eyes on Levi now standing before him with clenched fists. “You’re proving to be a very difficult man, Mr Levi.”“It’s about to get even harder.” Levi grumbled as he suddenly vanishes and reappears beside Rebirth. Rebirth barely blocks with an energy shield against Levi’s hard kick.Rebirth grits his teeth as he quickly fired an attack at Levi mid-air but Levi quickly creates a barrier upon which the energy attack explodes on, sending Levi falling back down to the ground with his barrier barely cracked. “Damn. You’ve really powered down, Rebirth.” Levi chuckled as h
Altered Cosmos Chapter 173; Raindrops
It’s been about 3 days after the raid on Rebirth’s base and with Rebirths remaining forces in hiding, the Index decided to do something in honour of those lost in battle. Under the clear evening sky, Levi and his friends, all dressed in dark attire along with a large number of other Index soldiers and guests stare… at the massive field where thousands of tombstones were erected on the grassy field. As the burial officiant reads the eulogy with his voice echoed through the small microphone on his collar, Levi takes a look around.The sight of families, friends and comrades mourning, crying and weeping, puts a heavy weight in his heart especially when he sees Cedric, Francis’ brother who grits his teeth as angry tears run down his face. Alana who stands beside Levi notices his expression and frowns but remains silent as the officiant finishes the eulogy.A couple of minutes later, Levi and the others stand by a set of vehicles when Jake and Nina approach them. “I’m guessing I did a p
Altered Cosmos Chapter 174; Turn The Page
Despite the events of the night, things actually felt brighter in the world. After finally venting out his thoughts, it was like a weight was lifted of his chest. He felt… a kind of peace and for that he was very grateful to Alana. After seeing the newlyweds off for their honeymoon, Levi took Alana out for a nice, fun date and for the first time in a very long time, Levi’s smile was actually wholehearted.Time passes as the word continue to heal with no sign of Rebirth or his remaining agents. 1 month later……Within a large training facility, a couple of agents watch in awe as two streaks of lightning clash throughout the room, creating ear-shattering sonic booms in their path.Suddenly, a clash sends one of the lightning bolts to the ground with an explosion of rubble.Kate who is covered in dirt and sweating profusely, pants as she gets to her feet within the dust-cloud… which suddenly clears to reveal Levi now standing behind her. “Don’t tell me you’re tired, Kate.” Levi grumble

Epilogue
As the doors to her parent’s room slide shut behind her, Eva’s eyes first meet the messy bed but Levi wasn’t on it. She turns and finds him standing by the cabinet some distance away from the bed. She wanted to speak but stops as an amused idea comes to her mind. She proceeds to sneak up to him and just when she was about to scare him, she finally notices that he was staring at a picture in his hand.Curious, she moves to get a closer look and sees that he was staring at the picture of him and Felix when they were younger. Unknown to Eva, Levi catches the sight of her eyes reflected against the frame and disappears… instantly appearing behind her and attacks with a tickle attack.“Da-Dad! S-Stop!” Eva shouted between laughs before using her own static shell to get away from him.“You let your guard down.” Levi said with a smile as he deactivates his static shell.“Sure but you don’t get to tickle me. I’m not 10 anymore.” Eva grumbled and Levi laughs as he places the picture in the ca
Chapter 230; Closure
It’s been 2 whole weeks since the defeat of the Parasites but the whole world was still buzzing about it.Not only did it help resolve the still lingering resentment of normal humans against the Index and trons in general, it also boosted the images of the Guardians to the point that they got a title upgrade… ‘The Guardian Deities’ which was ironic because the guardians were fighting beings trying to become gods in the first place.This goes especially for Levi. From the rumours about him to his revelation and his fight, his fame blew up more than the other guardians. This caused people to give him new nicknames and titles but the most notable name was the one the Spider of the Web predicted almost 2 decades ago… ‘The King of Humans’When all this new fame, respect and in some extreme cases, worship emerged, most of those so called superheroes resigned. Which was mostly due to the new bound resentment to people like them using Visor and Shade as references.Those that remained were t
Chapter 229; He Who Holds The Crown
While the world continues to rave about the fight of the Guardians against the Parasites, the Index’s top command was confronted by the revelation of an old enemy coming back for another sick game before being shocked more once they learnt that someone on their side already figured it out.“You’re saying Levi West knew about Blanca all this time?” Carolina asked and Alana nods.“Why didn’t he say anything?” Amanda asked and Alana shrugs.“I think he was worried about Blanca getting whiff of it. Even I didn’t know anything about it until 30 minutes ago.” Alana said.“He told you?” Vivian asked but Alana shakes her head.“He’s still out cold. The person who told me is the only other person who knew which also happens to be the person that’s going to kill that bastard.” Alana said with a gesture to the blank screen.“Who?” The Northern Rep asked and Alana smirks.“I believe you know an agent that goes by the nickname… the ‘Devil’s Kiss’.” Alana said and the Rep’s eyes widen in fear. “I
Chapter 228; Your Move 2
About 2 hours after the fight, in the Index’s HQ within the city… “So you have no idea who destroyed the bases?” Callum asked with narrowed eyes at Amanda’s hologram who nods.“We were running around for days trying to find it until we got a call of an attack and decided to check it out. By the time we got there, the base was already in flames and every one in that building died either from the explosion… or were killed with hollow canons.” Amanda said with concerned expression her face.“The same thing happened in Greece.” Vivian grumbled in her hologram form beside Amanda.“And South Korea.” Hunt, Vivian and Veronica’s father said with low growl in his voice as he sits across Vivian in a holographic form as well.“What about New York?” Callum asked and Amanda responds.“It was the biggest out of the four bases so the attack left the squad there a little overwhelmed with the damage. The Erased is helping with the clean-up but Diana’s replacement confirmed that the same thing happen
Chapter 227; Your Move
Barely 2 minutes ago…… “I thought you said that place was safe.” Gwen said as she runs with Nina and Peter leading them through the tunnels underground. “Emphasis on the ‘was’. Plans change.” Maeve said with a nonchalant expression that makes the children even more worried. “I hope they’re all okay.” Alex said with hopeful voice and Alice squeezes his shoulder. “They will be.” Alice said and Alex smiles… just as Eli stops with his eyes narrowed and a hand on his mask. A second later, Maeve, Nina and Peter stop too… just as an explosion occurs several metres behind them. “Whoa.” Cyrus grumbled as he stumbles and turns with widened eyes as the flames from the explosion suddenly barrels through the passage towards them. “Get behind-” Peter grunted as he tries to use her steel form but stumbles just as Eli steps up with his mask down. “Eli!” Alex said as the flames and debris continue to approach him with terrifying speed but Eli remains calm as he takes a deep breath. Seeing this
Chapter 226; Thick As Thieves 2
In one of the four battlegrounds…Cain was now on the ground; eyes widen as their body crumbles away with a reflector seen activated on their chest.They look up and flinch as Hana, Rana and Camie despite being all injured in different places with varying severity, stand around him with the familiar amprade glowing under their skin and their eyes.“How is this possible?” Cain grumbled.“Boosted or not, you were still only capable of using two gears simultaneously. With three seeming to be your limit if you push yourself hard enough." Rana said."But there’s only so many combinations that could work and I’ve fought a monster that could use dozens of different gears simultaneously. Compared to Zero, you’re nothing.” Hana added with a cold tone in her voice.“No.” Cain mumbled with tears in their eyes as they raise an arm to them. “Help… Gil… Mum…” Cain arm finally crumbles away into nothing… followed by the rest of their body.The same event occurs in another place… where Zack was now o
Chapter 225; Thick As Thieves
Hidden beneath the chaos caused by the fights above… Nina grunts from the burns on her arm which Maeve tends to. “Are you okay?” Cyrus asked and Nina grunts as Maeve ties her wounds. “Yeah. I just feel stupid for trying to stop her.” Nina grumbled and a pained laugh draws her attention to Peter who was even more injured with Gwen tending to him. “That’s what we get for forgetting she’s Einstein’s little girl. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Peter said before wincing as Gwen washes his wounds. “Still… I thought she was trained assassin. Going this far was too much especially since Mr Levi’s still alive.” Maeve grumbled with a glance at the screen where Levi was seen arguing with Eva before being caught up in a smoke bomb attack, blocking them from sight. “I can understand her emotions. Even I’m fighting the urge to go especially since I can’t even see my father.” Barry said with a frown at one of the screens which only shows the ice fortress with the faint sight of flam
Chapter 224; Unbelievable
“Dad!!!!!!” Eva shouted as she jumps to her feet with her widened purple eyes fixed at the now hollow ground where Levi was standing without a single trace of him left. “I don’t believe it.” Peter mumbled with shocked eyes while Nina tightly clenches her fists with a pained but still hopeful look in her eye.“Eva.” Alice said as she turns to Eva who was beginning to hyperventilate.“No. No. No. No.” She continues to mumble with tear streaming down her cheeks. Alice and some others move to comfort her but Nina and Peter quickly stop them as black markings begin to crawl onto Eva’s body.“Please. No.”Meanwhile…Blanca just stares with completely shocked eyes at the hollow ground where Levi was standing while Gilgamesh smiles evilly.He then turns back to Blanca who quickly stops time again… before gasping as Gilgamesh’s hand tears another rift that allows him to enter the time stopped world again. “No. Stay away.” Blanca said as he turns to run before gasping as Gilgamesh was now in
Chapter 223; Grit
12:54 pm…Under the hot afternoon sun, the Sanctuary continues to be bombarded with the chaos created by the parasites.But due to the efforts of the Index, virtually all civilians were safely evacuated to safe points where they, along with the rest of the world watch, via news drones, the battles between these new enemies and the only humans capable of fighting them……In one part of the city, Valentina stands with heavy breaths escaping her mouth while the several cuts on her body continue to heal quickly.She laughs as she looks up to Veronica with some bruises who growls with blood stained claws. “I’d say I underestimated you, Wolf. Your claws are even sharper than the Reaper’s scythe.”Veronica suddenly scoffs. “Wrong again.” Valentina furrows her brows in confusion which makes Veronica smile with beastly sharp teeth.“If you think my claws are sharper than Hana’s blades then she must have really held back when she fought you.”“Is that right?” Valentina chuckled as the last of he
