The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

[POV Reo]

I kept staring towards the ocean while Ororo laid her head in my lap. I was gently running my fingers through her soft and silky silver hair. ​​

I still remember the first time she asked me out. It was the day I returned with Jean from Venice. It has been a year and a half since that day.

(A/N: The romance was taking too much time and I was going out of things to write about so I decided to do a timeskip and do the Reo X Ororo with Flashbacks throughout some chapters while progressing the chapters)

~FLASHBACK~

After our boat ride was finished both I and Jean decided to have lunch before returning. This time we decided to go for Pasta as we have already tried Spaghetti yesterday and Pizza is something we eat after every few days.

After finishing our dinner, Jean said that she didn't want to teleport because she loved having the food she just ate inside her belly. So, we decided to fly back to Elysium. We returned to the alley where I Apparated yesterday and from there we took flight… while in the air, I casted notice-me-not charms on both of us.

It took us a few hours to finally return to Elysium. Since we already had dinner both Jean and I decided to sit it out. I noticed that Ororo kept looking at me from time to time since I came back. It wasn't something unusual… she always did that but today she had a confident gleam in her eyes.

After the others finished their dinner, Ororo called out to me and said that she wanted to talk, I already had some ideas about what she wanted to talk about.

"So, Ororo what do you want to talk about?" I asked her with a serious look on my face. I knew that Ororo has finally made a decision then she must have given it a lot of thought but that also meant that she would be determined.

That is why I am going to make it hard for her. I don't want her to take the decision half-heartedly. This would only cause problems on a later date, it's not like I have something against her but she was the one who took the most time to make a decision… so I wanted to see how determined she was.

Ororo was quite determined though even after seeing how I spoke with her, her facial expression didn't change. "I was wondering if you are free tomorrow?" Ororo asked me with a smile on her face.

"I am free tomorrow evening" I said and my usual smile made its way to my face. I wanted to spend some time with Rumi, it has been a while since I have spent some time with her.

"Oh… that would do. So, do you want to go on a date tomorrow evening?" Ororo asked me in a slightly hopeful tone.

I didn't say anything for a few seconds and I could see it in her eyes that her strong façade was cracking. "…Of course, I would love to" I said with a huge grin on my face. A smile bloomed on Ororo's face, this smile was much brighter than the smile she had all this time on her face.

"So, do you mind if decide the place?" Ororo asked me and I just shook my head in denial.

"Then I will decide something and tell you in the morning, I hope that's fine?" Ororo asked.

"Yeah sure, I have no problems with that" I said. Ororo pecked me on my cheek and walked away while swaying her hips.

~FLASHBACK OVER~

I was brought to the present when I heard Ororo's voice "What are you thinking about?" Ororo asked me softly, she was staring at me with her beautiful blue eyes.

"I was thinking about the first time you asked me out" I said and leaned down and gave her a gentle peck on her lips.

"Oh… I still remember that from time to time" Ororo said with a smile on her face, she was obviously reminiscing about the past.

A lot has happened within a year and a half. Nemuri has finally established her company, just in one and a half years, she has made her company the biggest company in the world. People still gawked at her ability… many people screamed and shouted that she must be doing something illegal.

Within months, her company was inspected several times but each and every time they came out empty-handed. Well, it was obvious, Nemuri wasn't a fool she wouldn't do anything illegal inside her company.

If she was doing something illegal then she would obviously do it outside so that no one can make the connection and she never hired a helping hand… if she needed to do anything illegal then she always did it herself. This removed the risk of information leaking from the middleman.

So, she finally fulfilled her dream, she was leading the whole world's economy now. Kind of ironic, since she was the one who collapsed the whole world economy.

Luna was also making strides with the Quibbler when she started publishing for the first time, a lot of people criticized it saying that it won't sell because it was filled with silly things but soon they had to swallow their own words.

When I heard about what happened for a few moments I think that some Eastern-Fantasy might have made its way into the Marvel Multiverse but thankfully it was a one-time event.

Her paper was currently ranked second throughout the world. The Guardian was in the lead, children loved her paper where she wrote about the magical creatures. The adults loved her paper because of the unbiased news she printed.

This made her paper face some backlash in some parts of the world. Nemuri went there and made them understand that why it wasn't a good idea to ban Quibbler in their country. Some obvious and underhanded threats were made which would never see the light of the day.

Momo also finished her project, she succeeded in setting up a satellite net around the Earth. This wasn't something overly hard but it consumed a lot of her time. Through this satellite net, she would be able to keep an eye over the whole world and no one could hide from it.

Combining magic and science she was able to create these satellites, these satellites could pick up from Earth's surface while they were orbiting outside of Earth's atmosphere. The satellites brought up such crystal clear video feed from the Earth's surface sometimes I wondered if I was watching a 4K movie.

These satellites were obviously impossible to detect with normal means. These satellites could do a lot more but since I didn't understand all those technicalities I decided to give up.

Momo also made an AI like JARVIS that could keep an eye on the satellite net 24X7. Thankfully, the AI had a dumbing-down protocol built-in… which would stop it from getting too smart and launching an attack on us. Thankfully we won't be having a Judgement Day when machines decided to wipe out all the humans…

Fleur had long finished her experiments with both Anti-Metal and Vibranium. It took her nearly 6 months to get me an armor made of Anti-Metal. I don't blame her though… first of all, the typical cutting methods were useless, she had to make a laser system specifically designed to cut Anti-Metal.

The second problem she faced was how to stitch the Anti-Metal on fabric. She had to modify the laser so that she could cut the Anti-Metal into threads. After that, she stitched them together with magic…

Then she continued to make armor for the girls. It took her one whole year to make an Anti-Metal armor for Nemuri, Rumi, Natasha, and Jean. My armor took so long because of trial and error, when she finally found a way to make the armor it was no longer a problem.

Currently, she was working on the Vibranium I had brought her from Klaue, she was making armor for Ororo out of Vibranium. According to her, she would complete the project within a week.

But Rumi was the one who showed the through training you can achieve anything. She has become so strong physically that even I can no longer fight with her. She had found a way to concentrate all her strength in one point like Tsunade.

When her hits don't connect nothing happens, not even leaves move but if she threw a punch in the ocean she could literally split the ocean. Sometimes I get Saitama vibes from her but unlike Saitama her blows won't put a hole in a mountain range if it doesn't connect with the mountain range.

The last time we fought she broke my left hand and cracked three of my ribs. Both times she failed to connect her hits perfectly. I shuddered at the thought of what would happen if her hits would have connected. Well, during the fight she was using her Overdrive mode.

Yeah, she named it Overdrive mode. It's basically like Black Rabbit's battle mode but for Rumi, her hair doesn't change colors but her hair starts glowing. She was damn strong and by each day she was growing stronger, I shuddered once again.

Dora was still deep inside SHIELD, but she was able to raise up several ranks within one and a half years. Currently, she sported a Clearance Level-5 and she was currently posted in General Ross's department.

She had also made quite a name for herself, SHIELD has given her the nickname of 'Thousand Faced Dora'. Dora obviously puffed out her chest because she received such an awesome compliment… she was over the moon and rubbed it in Nemuri's face for a week while Dora sported a smug look on her face.

The way Dora received the name was also funny, SHIELD sent Agents to follow her because she was finishing her jobs very quickly which should have taken months. Dora obviously knew that she was being followed so she Confounded the Agents to think that she used make-up items to disguise herself.

So, Fury called her into his office and asked her to disguise herself like anyone in the room, Dora Confounded them and made them think that she used the kit they gave her… Fury has finally grown some brain cells and he had removed the camera from his room so there were no cameras in the room.

Everyone in the room was surprised to see when Dora transformed herself into Maria Hill, she herself was surprised to see her exact copy. Everyone in there praised her after they finally got over their shocks. Dora obviously relished being praised, that stroked her clumsy ego.

Nat finally found how to use her Power Enhancing Abilities without turning them into mindless followers and enhanced both Jean's and Ororo's Meta-Human powers. Nobody knew about this and I also decided that this thing should be kept a secret.

Several months ago, Eric, Raven, and Emma approached Nat and made a request for her to train spies. Since Nat was bored out of her mind she happily agreed. Since then Nat has been training new spies for Elysium.

Jean has also grown a lot more powerful, even though Fleur was busy most of the time with her armor she still trained with Jean regularly. They have learned to teleport using Phoenix Flames, their flames have also become a lot hotter. They have also learned how to control their flames.

If they want their flames could burn anything but if they want their flames could heal too. Yes, they can someday create life with their flames too but they are still unable to do that. Since Jean has become a perfect host she has also gained immortality as long as she is housing the Phoenix Force and the Phoenix Force had taken a liking to her and has said that Jean was her best host and she was never going to leave Jean.

Ororo has also grown a lot stronger, she got a boost from Nat, while her magical abilities have also increased. She still uses her wand but now, she was able to go toe to toe against Rumi in a magical fight. She has also started to learn how to cast wandless magic.

I was brought out of my thoughts when my phone suddenly buzzed. I pulled out my phone and found that it was Dora. 'Something has happened, I don't know what exactly happened but some green monster blew apart the base and jumped away' Dora wrote… hah… looks like the plot is moving once again…
