The ritual Angy performed hadn't just revived Gustav… it had brought him back in full.
One hundred percent Outworldly strength.
A level of power so absolute, so oppressive, so ancient that entire civilizations had been erased from history for merely attempting to study it.
Just his presence alone began healing the cosmos. Dimensional fractures began repairing themselves, dying stars stabilized, lost energies realigned into harmony. His existence was a natural state of universal order.
And with calm, unblinking eyes, Gustav turned toward the trembling deities.
His voice echoed not through air, but directly into existence itself:
"I am aware of all you did in my absence…
And there will be consequences."
A silence thicker than any vacuum in space, reigned.
A silence so heavy it felt like the universe forgot how to breathe.
Suddenly—
"ENOUGH!"
