I have finished translating this fanfic, IMUC (I Am In Marvel With Unlimited Cards) and have posted all the advanced chapters on Patreon (Last Chapter -- 706). (https://www.patreon.com/c/marvel6395). You can read all the advanced chapters there.
After Venom left Eddie's body, the once-human Eddie's life quickly faded. Less than half a second later, his breathing ceased, and the remaining half of his body showed no signs of life.
On the other side...
Countless black tendrils of liquid erupted from the blazing green flames, wrapping around Deadpool's skeletal frame. They formed a dark, protective sheath over the bones, desperately resisting the searing heat.
Hellfire's empty eye sockets flared with a sinister fire as if a chilling realization dawned upon him. He used the iron chains to bind Deadpool's spine, his palm crushing against the skull.
The flames intensified, following the chains and his palm, spreading towards the human skeleton encased in the dark, protective membrane.
Hellfire intended to incinerate Deadpool and the Symbiote Venom together.
Deadpool, now a mere skeleton, continued to scream in agony. A faint, second scream – a sharp, piercing cry – echoed from within his bones.
"This isn't ordinary fire..."
Venom's thoughts echoed fiercely within Deadpool's mind. While Venom was immune to fire, Hellfire's green flames were a manifestation of eternal fire. They burned not only the body but also the soul and spirit.
Under the onslaught of the green flames, the protective membrane Venom had formed around Deadpool's skeleton began to fade, slowly disintegrating into nothingness.
"Damn it!"
For the first time in its existence, Venom, the symbiote immune to flames, experienced the agonizing sensation of being burned by fire.
How could one describe the sensation of impending death? It was a searing, suffocating heat, red and dry. The moisture within its being evaporated under the extreme heat, leaving behind, perhaps, not even a trace of its physical form.
Death – true, inescapable death – loomed before it.
But why did this suffocating despair feel so familiar, as if it had been experienced before...
Venom couldn't shake off the feeling.
Then, something deep within its memories, awakened by the flames, stirred. The sealed box from the moment of its birth, locked away for so long, finally sprang open.
Venom 'saw' it.
A scene of a chaotic chase above a sky torn asunder by a red, vortex-like wormhole, surrounded by swirling tornadoes. Venom found itself in the cockpit of a large spaceship, facing another fighter jet, a hawk-shaped aircraft.
On the deck of the hawk-shaped jet stood a man – Kyle. He coldly looked down at Venom, his hand gathering destructive red flames.
"Slaughter. You are the evil product born from the negative consciousness that Venom and I accumulated during Earth's Second World War. You were my past comrade, but also my inner demon. But World War II on Earth has long since ended. Everything is either frozen or vanished from this world forever."
Kyle's low words faintly reached Venom's ears.
'Slaughter? Who is Slaughter? Is that me?'
Venom's mind was violently shaken and it was as if his very being was getting torn apart!
"So... goodbye, Slaughter. I hope in the next life you won't have anything to do with me." Kyle's voice faded as he brought his palm down. The searing heat of the divine flame erupted into a column of fire, rushing towards Venom.
"No!!"
Venom screamed in desperation, and in the moments before the fire engulfed it, an unbidden thought arose in its mind.
"No, Master. Our battle and journey are not over. As long as there is fighting, you will always need me. Because when we are together, no one in this universe can be stronger than us."
Venom didn't know if that thought originated from Slaughter in its final moments, or from its own current thoughts. All it knew was that, in this moment of despair, it had finally found its true purpose.
It was born in divine fire.
...
Just as the green flame was about to consume the dark material on Deadpool's bones, the dark material turned a fiery red. It repelled the green flame, rapidly merging with Deadpool's genes, creating tough, dark red muscles. A new body emerged from Hellfire's grasp – a fusion of the Undying Deadpool and the Symbiote Venom!
This new body differed from Venom's typical, dark, towering form. Instead, it resembled Spider-Man's physique – agile and lean, with muscles forming a tough, exoskeletal armor.
Its eyes were a dark crimson color and it looked as if flames burned within them. With a cruel, domineering gaze, it locked eyes with Hellfire.
The lifeform born from the symbiosis of Deadpool and Venom could only be described as a "Venom Knight."
Ignoring the burning green flames on its body and the iron chains binding its bones, the Venom Knight suddenly grinned. It reached out and grabbed Hellfire's fingers, forcibly bending each one backward.
Simultaneously, the Venom Knight placed its foot on Hellfire's chest. As it bent its legs and arched its body back, it leaped backward with incredible force.
Crack—
A chilling sound echoed through the air.
The iron chains connected to the Venom Knight's spine, and the spine itself, both snapped in unison. The chains, still embedded in the body, caused Hellfire to grunt in pain.
The Venom Knight gazed at Hellfire coldly, its mouth widening as its sharp teeth crushed the chains to pieces. It devoured them like food.
Patting its stomach, which had been torn open, the Venom Knight's spine began to heal at an astonishing rate.
It looked at Hellfire and let out a sharp, ear-piercing growl. The soundwave attack created by its roar sent rocks and shattered flowers flying.
"Deadpool, you..."
The enlarged Antman, standing behind, watched in confusion, unsure of what had just transpired.
But now, Deadpool's anger was far more terrifying than mere rage. The murderous aura surrounding him was more potent than Hellfire's.
What kind of monster had this fight inadvertently created?
The Venom Knight remained silent. It heard a shout and coldly turned its head. Its red eyes focused on the enlarged Antman on the ground, ignoring Hellfire and charging towards him with incredible speed.
"Don't come near me!"
Antman was truly terrified. He only saw a blur before the Venom Knight was upon him. Then, several iron chains, sizzling with green flames, whipped around like agile vipers, wrapping around its neck, waist, and all four limbs.
But Hellfire acted just in time. Using the chains on his own body, he tightly restrained the Venom Knight and forcibly pulled it back.
"Saved..."
Antman exhaled in relief. He honestly didn't know how to describe the scene – his teammates had intended to act, but instead, they were saved by the opposing team.
Hellfire tugged at the iron chains, restricting the Venom Knight's movements. The Venom Knight, frustrated, clawed and scratched, while continuing its relentless assault on Antman.
It tightened the chains around its body to the maximum, using its immense strength to even push Hellfire forward, leaving deep gouges in the ground with each step.
"Roar!"
The Venom Knight unleashed a furious roar, and the shrill sound of the roar knocked Antman unconscious.
The chains around its body snapped one by one, pulled apart by its immense strength.
In the nick of time...
Two translucent black shadows erupted from the bodies of the Wrath and Pride corpses, merging into one as they charged toward Hellfire!
