Marvel: Son of Tomorrow

Phoenix was right, and Clark also knew that the sun's rays could only bring a little comfort, apart from accelerating the evolution of his Kryptonian physique.

It's not helpful at all for the situation at this time.

And Clark never intended to rely on the sun to expel the Phoenix force. Such a thing is simply impossible for a star of the level of the sun.

The reason why he flew towards the sun was very simple, which was to find a more comfortable position for his flight.

Clark's flying speed continued to rise, and the energy consumed at a high speed in the flare state was now rapidly dissipating, as if a water valve had been completely opened.

The result was that Clark reached the speed of light in less than two seconds.

Every 14 seconds, Clark would orbit the sun.

"What's wrong? Superman, are you starting to give up on yourself? The moment your special state ends, you will no longer have the power to resist me."

“I never thought of resisting.”

What Phoenix didn't expect was that Clark didn't remain silent, but answered her.

"I know very well that I am not yet able to bear the emotions of the entire universe. I know that I cannot expel you from my body with my willpower, but I still have the power. I am Superman!"

"Wha...what!"

After saying this, Phoenix gradually felt that something was wrong.

Although it was very faint, she still felt that Clark's speed was still increasing.

Although he has reached the speed of light, his speed is still increasing.

Relying on the terrifying increase in flare mode, Clark broke through the speed of light, the most solid barrier in the infinite universe.

"Love...love is...can't catch up..."

The speed of light is almost equal to time. When the speed exceeds the speed of light, it means that this person has transcended time.

The power of the Phoenix can certainly allow the emotions of the entire universe to flow into Clark's brain, thus defeating his will.

But if Superman's speed exceeds the speed of light and transcends time, those emotions that are about to be born will forever stop at the moment before birth, and the oppression of consciousness will naturally no longer exist.

Perhaps, a complete Phoenix could easily deal with Clark's behavior, but this piece of Phoenix fragment obviously has no way to cope with the current situation.

Not only was it impossible to use emotions to suppress consciousness, but he himself, because he had not yet completely merged with Clark's body, was constantly being peeled off at this speed.

The Phoenix slowly turned into energy and flowed out from every pore on Clark's body.

He couldn't keep up. Even though he was in Clark's body, he couldn't keep up with the speed of breaking through the time limit.

Suddenly, the Phoenix Force, which had reached its limit, left Clark's body like a torn plaster. At this moment, the sun that was revolving around Clark subtly reversed.

Although it was very brief, Phoenix saw it clearly.

The Phoenix, which had become a pocket-sized firebird, turned around and saw Clark had stopped and stood in front of him.

"You reversed time. There are no laws. You reversed the time of an area with your speed. Do you know what this means?"

Perhaps, using the Eye of Agamotto, Ancient One could more easily reverse the sun, but that was because the Eye of Agamotto itself symbolized the laws of events in this universe, just like the authority of an administrator.

What Superman is doing now is tantamount to breaking the authority's control over the server.

"I don't know what this means, I just know..."

Clark panted slightly, then raised his fist towards Phoenix.

"All I know is that you're leaving here!"

Phoenix was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

Although her strength remained unchanged after losing her host, it was impossible for her to parasitize anyone else again in front of the Superman in front of her. Besides, there was no need for her to parasitize anyone other than Superman, even Jean.

"I'm giving you a piece of advice, Superman. I am not the end of everything, but the beginning of everything. From this moment on, you will become the center of the universe."

After saying that, the Phoenix turned around and flew into the depths of the universe.

Clark stayed where he was, and watched with his super vision as the Phoenix left the solar system and gradually flew to another galaxy.

At this moment, he completely relaxed, and the solar energy gushing out of his body completely dissipated, revealing his naked upper body as he fell towards the earth.

........

after one day.

When Clark opened his eyes again, he was already on the hospital bed at X Academy.

Just at this moment, Logan, who had just finished a simulated combat course with his students, passed by and saw Clark who had woken up.

"You awake? Clark!"

...a moment later.

Clark understood clearly what happened during his coma.

Internationally, because the battle between Clark and Phoenix caused destruction in almost every major country in the world, for a while, the issue of how to deal with mutants was not brought up to the table.

As for Clark himself, it was Jean who saved him by flying into the universe alone through telekinesis after he became familiar with his own powers.

When they found Clark, he was almost suffocating.

Yes, perhaps it was because of the excessive energy consumption of the flare mode that caused Clark to temporarily lose his superpowers.

I almost suffocated to death in outer space.

But Clark has figured this out.

He could feel that the strength in his body was recovering rapidly. The time for him to lose his superpowers should be only one day. After one day, he would be back to normal. He would not even need to absorb the sun's energy again like he did a few years ago. He would be back to his full strength in one day.

However, a powerful Superman can be found at any time, but a Superman without power is a rare species.

Benjamin has to manage the company that has become unusual due to Richard's disappearance, so May comes here to take care of Clark.

And Katie, his future girlfriend, also has the idea of ​​taking care of Clark.

So, for the next day, Clark's front was almost filled with food.

After all, Kryptonians who have lost their superpowers still need to eat normally. May didn't know how long it had been since she saw Clark with such a full appetite.

And Katie... seemed to have awakened some strange interest and wanted to cook a delicious meal for Clark herself.

But it is obvious that Katie, who is 16 years old and has been in the Mutant Academy, does not have any superb cooking skills, which makes Clark, whose super taste is restored first, miserable.
