Mysteries On Marvel

[Thanks for the comments!! Extra Chapter!]

In the spacious, brightly lit room, countless threads stretched like a spider's web, connecting the walls and ceiling to an enormous loom that dominated the space.

Clack.

Clack.

Clack!

A golden shuttle darted swiftly through the dense network of threads on the massive loom, its movements like a stream of golden light, mesmerizing to behold.

Despite the carnage throughout the textile factory, the colossal loom continued its relentless work, weaving without pause, indifferent to the chaos.

"So this is the Loom of Fate," Eren muttered, gazing at the machine that formed the very foundation of the Brotherhood.

The Loom of Fate—the cornerstone of the Assassins' Creed. It was also Eren's ultimate objective in this carefully orchestrated plan.

As he stepped closer, standing mere feet from the loom, Eren found himself at a loss.

"Now that I've found it, how do I offer it to the Scales of Fate? Do I need some kind of ritual?"

Just as he pondered this, a message emerged in his mind:

[Touch it.]

All he needed to do was touch the Loom of Fate with any part of his body to offer it to the Scales of Fate.

"That easy, huh?" Eren smirked and extended his hand toward the loom.

As his right hand approached, the golden shuttle, sensing impending danger, transformed into a streak of light and tried to escape the loom.

But the moment Eren's hand made contact with the Loom of Fate, the streak of light froze mid-air, as though time itself had been halted.

No, it wasn't just the shuttle.

Everything in the room—every thread, every motion—became still, as if frozen in time.

A distorted vortex materialized in the air, swallowing the entire loom, golden shuttle included.

Once the vortex vanished and the room returned to normal, a cascade of information poured into Eren's mind.

[Ding!]

[The host has successfully offered the anomalous artifact 'Loom of Fate,' extracting 2 points of this world's destiny essence and gaining 10,000 Fate Points.]

[Scales of Fate functions being updated…]

[Ding!]

[Update complete.]

Eren had anticipated that the Scales of Fate's upgrade would take some time, but it was done in an instant.

"Well, that was quick," he remarked to himself before the new feature caught his eye.

[Exchange]

The name was simple, but the feature's capabilities left Eren stunned.

[Exchange: Place sufficient weights on one side of the Scales of Fate, and you may exchange them for anything you desire. Remember, anything.]

[Note: You must have sufficient weights.]

[Evaluation: 'Fate' is omnipotent.]

The audacious claim of "Fate being omnipotent" felt less exaggerated in light of this terrifying ability.

"What an incredible power…"

Unlike the Fate Manifestation feature, which required Fate Points, this new ability relied on the inherent value of items placed on the scales. If the value was deemed adequate, the exchange could proceed.

Eren's mind raced.

"What if I placed this world's six Infinity Stones on the scales? What could I get in return?"

His musings were cut short by the sound of intense gunfire from nearby.

"Guess now's not the time for daydreaming," Eren muttered. With a flash of his figure, he exited the now-empty room.

Stepping out, Eren immediately spotted Cross stumbling out of the study, bloodied and pale, with Sloan close behind.

Cross's body was riddled with wounds, fresh blood soaking through his clothes, highlighting his precarious state.

Sloan, however, didn't look much better. Though he pursued Cross with a dark expression, he bore bullet wounds in his abdomen and right arm.

At the moment Eren offered the Loom of Fate to the Scales, Sloan had experienced a chilling dread deep within his soul.

Sensing his hesitation, Cross seized the moment, suppressing his pain to unload the entirety of a handgun's magazine at Sloan.

Though Sloan managed to evade most of the lethal shots, he couldn't avoid two bullets that tore into his flesh.

To his frustration, Cross used the distraction to leap through a factory window, shattering it as he fled.

The ritual Sloan had been preparing to please the demon was ruined.

"You want to die? I'll gladly oblige," Sloan growled, grabbing a thick leather-bound book from the study. From within, he drew a pitch-black handgun and sprinted after Cross.

Having never imagined Sloan would become this terrifying, Cross burst through the window just in time to see Eren emerging from the room that housed the loom.

Thinking quickly, Cross yelled, "Do something! I can't hold him off much longer!"

Trailing behind, Sloan also noticed Eren's masked figure.

"Oh, you've brought a friend? Good. I'll kill you both," Sloan sneered, raising his weapon and firing.

Eren froze.

Having successfully obtained both the Loom of Fate and the formula for the restorative wax, Eren had been ready to leave, his mission completed flawlessly.

Now, thanks to Cross's diversionary tactics, he found himself caught in the crossfire.
