Game in Marvel

"So, what's the deal? Do I just shout 'lightning strike' and hope for the best?" Clint had already tasted the magic of Liam so he was quite excited to try these. 

"It's not that dramatic. Just focus on the element you want, and the blade will respond. Give it a try."

Clint swung his sword in an arc, and a burst of flame erupted from the blade, flickering harmlessly in the air. His grin widened.

"Okay, this is officially the coolest thing I've ever owned."

"These are beautiful. But are they as durable as they look?" Natasha asked as she checked her sword.

"They won't break under normal circumstances," Liam assured her. "You'd have to be fighting something on the level of a Frost Giant to even put a dent in them."

"You've given us a lot, Liam. Thank you." Steve thanked and so did the others. They know that these items would be necessary. 

"You're welcome, but this isn't just a gift. It's preparation." Liam reminded them. Everyone nodded heads and soon wore their armors.. Even Tony wore his magical armor. After everyone was done, he then gifted them some medieval era clothes which he had custom ordered. 

Though they didn't like the fashion at all, Liam insisted. 

"All preparations done?" Liam asked again. Everyone nodded. Clint had a small bag, sword on his hip, bow on his shoulder strapped with a quiver of arrows that Liam had provided. Natasha had the sword and also two batons on her thighs, while also two guns on her back. Steve was with his iconic shield and this time he had a sword too. If it was any other time, he would have been declared as a knight, and could definitely fight better than a knight. 

And lastly Tony was with his armor bag and sword on the hip. The logistics was carried by Liam as his system space would still work in the game. 

"Fenrir, be a good boy when I am gone." Liam petted Fenrir. 

Bark 

"I will take care of him." Pepper promised, Tony too came forward and kissed her. She knew that Tony was doing this for his friend and though it would be dangerous, Liam had done way too much for all of them. The whole team owed Liam a lot. 

"I will not say much. But I hope you come back with the colors of victory." Fury said. 

"It will be a long trial Fury. Yinsen, I am sorry but you will have to be on standby." Liam said. 

"This is the least I can do." Yinsen replied.

"Wish us luck." Tony said as he got ready, and so did the others. 

"Have a safe journey." Pepper said. 

"Give them hell." Fury encouraged. 

Liam summoned a portal and everybody stepped in after one look around. They could hear the bark of Fenrir stop as they vanished from their world. To a world different from their own. To another plane altogether. 

As the group stepped through the swirling portal, the blinding light faded, revealing a rugged dirt path surrounded by dense woods. The air was damp and carried the scent of wet earth, while the distant calls of crows echoed ominously through the trees. 

"What is that smell?" Steve commented the moment he stepped in. They wanted to enjoy the dawn that had just cracked in, but couldn't at all since a very bad smell assaulted their nostrils.

"It's the smell of the dead." Natasha said as she became instantly vigilant. "Dead human bodies." 

"You seem to recognize the smell." Tony asked. 

"I have seen my fair share when I was in Red Room." Natasha said as she had flashbacks to the time in Red Room where she was once forced to be in the same room as a morgue. It was done so that she could get accustomed to any kind of bad smell while on future missions. 

Liam looked around as he slowly drew his Vigilance, seeing that the others did it too, except Tony as he clutched his bag ready for any kind of attack. They took their first steps on the road while having eyes scanning the surroundings. The thick canopy overhead dimmed the sunlight, casting long shadows on the forest floor. Natasha took the rear, while Clint had his bow drawn, an arrow nocked and ready.

"Not exactly the most welcoming place," Tony muttered as the smell still lingered even though they had moved. 

The uneasy quiet was soon broken by a low, guttural growl that made everyone freeze in place. From the underbrush ahead, a pack of ghouls emerged. Their hunched, feral forms moved with unsettling agility, their mottled gray skin stretched over jagged bones. Their glowing yellow eyes locked onto the group, and their snarls sent chills down Clint's spine.

"What the hell are those things?" he hissed, raising his bow.

"Ghouls," Liam said. "Fast. Vicious. They hunt in packs, and they're always hungry."

Tony and Liam stayed back while they allowed Steve, Clint and Natasha to take the lead in this fight. They would make sure that there weren't any sneak attacks. 

The ghouls wasted no time, lunging toward the group with inhuman speed. Steve stepped forward with his shield raised, intercepting the first ghoul with a resounding clang as its claws scraped against the vibranium. With a swift motion, he bashed the creature backward before driving his sword into its chest and then slashing it down from the inside. It let out a guttural wail before collapsing in a heap.

Natasha was already in motion, she sidestepped a leaping ghoul, slicing through its flank with her sword before spinning to deliver a killing blow to another closing in from her left.

Clint, positioned slightly behind them, unleashed a volley of arrows with deadly accuracy. Each arrow struck true, finding its mark in the ghouls' heads or hearts, dropping them instantly. These arrows were normal arrows but once they were used in that super powered bow, it unleashed a magic that could kill most monsters from the inside. 

Meanwhile, Liam kept his gaze sharp, Vigilance gleaming in his hand as he scanned the tree line.
