Marvel With Zanpakutou

Chapter 393: Half of Helheim

Chapter 393: Half of Helheim

Baldur got what he wanted.

He finally did not have to be imprisoned in this puppet-like body. He completely broke away from the heavy motherly love and turned into countless twinkling stars, drifting away with the breeze.

"Baldur..."

Hela's eyes gradually became moist. She could not help but recall the past. The warm scenes flashed through her mind like a lantern.

When she was a child, he was like a bum beetle, following behind her. Whenever the battlefield was in danger, he would step forward and use his undying body to block the sword for her.

Even when she was imprisoned in the Underworld and no one remembered her for thousands of years, it was also Baldur who deliberately came to see her.

So...

Their relationship was not that bad.

It was only at this moment that Hela saw her younger brother clearly. He was actually very smart and had long known that his promise of death was just a lie.

He had come not because of her promise.

It was only because in the depths of his heart, Baldur still recognized her as his sister!

If there were people in this world who still remembered her, loved her, and were willing to protect her, perhaps it would only be Baldur.

Hela knew very well.

An undying body was a curse to Baldur, but she still sincerely hoped that Baldur could survive, even if the price was to live as long as he was alive.

Now...

Baldur was really dead. Hela suddenly felt a huge emptiness in her heart. It was as if she had lost something important. She subconsciously reached out her hand, wanting to keep him. However, the specks of light that drifted in the wind only left a lingering warmth in her palm.

"You can leave."

Lod sighed slightly. He seemed to feel sorry for this sad man. After sheathing zanpakuto, he said indifferently, "If you feel resentment and anger, then come to Midgard to take revenge after you get out of here."

"But..."

The light in the depths of Lod's eyes faded as he coldly said, "If you come to challenge me next time, then I suggest that you make preparations in advance and prepare to die under me, sword!"

He was not worried about Hela's revenge, because as long as he lost once, there would never be a chance to surpass him. He could only look at his retreating back with despair.

Since he was determined to become strong, the first thing he had to do was to have a strong and fearless heart.

If he had to worry about the threat of an enemy that he had already surpassed, it would be equivalent to denying his own future!

Letting a tiger return to the mountains and raising a tiger was a problem. The premise of this sentence was that what he released was a real 'tiger'.

Was Hela a tiger?

In Lod's eyes, Hela was a tiger cub.

By the time she had grown into a tiger, she would have already jumped into the dragon gate and turned into a dragon. How could a true dragon fear a tiger from the mortal world?

"No... I won't resent you, nor will I seek revenge on you." After a moment of silence, Hela said bitterly, "This is Baldur's lifelong wish, so I have to thank you on his behalf."

"..."

The person who had really killed Baldur was not the man in front of him, but the God King and Queen who were high and mighty in the Temple of Asgard!

Therefore, Hela did not hate Lod. She just silently counted this hatred on Asgarda!

The pitiful Old Master Odin, the so-called air-borne pot, was probably nothing more than this.

"I should have died after losing to you."

Hela slowly raised her head, and her eyes were filled with sadness that could not be wiped away. She said faintly, "The glory of the warrior and the king will not allow me to do such a thing."

"But... my life was exchanged for by Baldur with his own life. I can not disappoint him, so I can only endure this humiliation and temporarily abandon my glory to live."

Glory again...

Lod suddenly felt his teeth ache. He repeated these two words over and over again dozens of times, and his ears were almost calluses from listening to them.

"So... I decide."

Hela did not care about him. She took a deep breath, as if she had made a great decision. Then she said, "take half of my Helheim domain as a collateral to my life!"

"Half of Helheim?"

This shocked Lod. First, he did not expect that there would be unexpected gains. Second, he did not expect Hela to value the glory of the warriors so much that she even paid half of the control of the Underworld as the price!

"That's right, half of Helheim!"

Hela nodded slightly, her eyes full of fighting spirit. She said word by word, "And I want to challenge you. The next time we meet, we will continue this unfinished duel. At that time, the victorious side will have the complete Helheim!"

So it was a challenge...

Lod understood. It seemed that Hela was still not convinced, so she came up with this idea.

As the loser side, it was already a great blessing that Hela was still alive. How could she have the face to challenge the winner, Lod?

Therefore, Hela thought of this idea.

By paying half of the control of the Underworld as a reward for the winner, she would be able to use the remaining half of the control. It would not damage her pride, but it would also allow her to issue a second duel challenge.

If she won, the control of the Underworld that she lost would naturally belong to her in the end, and she would also win back the glory that she had lost.

However, if she lost, it would just be a life. Compared to her, who valued glory more than death, it was just a matter of time.

Lod had actually seen through her thoughts with a single glance. All of Hela's logic and actions were based on her rebellious pride.

That was why she had made such an outrageous request. Although he understood this type of thought, he was not stupid enough to give up on the meat he was about to say.

Lod smiled and nodded. He agreed to Hela's invitation. "Since you insist, I will do as you wish. However, I will not wait for you here."

"Don't worry, I won't let you stay for too long!"

Hela's eyes flashed with light, and she said proudly, "I will be able to escape soon. When the time comes, I will show you the true power of Hela Odinsdottir!"

"Oh?"

Lod narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Since you said so, then I will wait and see."

Hela no longer spoke. She extended her rotten right hand and stabbed it into her chest. She took out a crystal fragment and threw it to Lod. hollow said weakly, "This is... half of Helheim, and now it belongs to you!"

Lod raised his hand to take the crystal fragment, and then the system's voice rang in his mind.
