You and me under the world tree

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke.

For her, it actually takes a certain amount of courage to say those words in front of others.

And Dietrich was actually ready for Hela's questioning.

After all, no matter what, this is no longer a category that Theotis, who is a mortal, can do.

This is brand new magic.

Although magic itself is a way for the 'incompetent' to exert their power, it is obviously not that simple to engrave something with magic.

But the problem is that at this moment, Hela has no intention of asking at all.

When Dietrich raised her hand again, what she saw was the face wrapped in the magic tulle.

She still couldn't see Hela's expression clearly at the moment, but she could feel her eyes.

It seemed to be a gentle look with a smile.

As the Queen of the Nether and the leader of the dead, would Hela have such eyes?

Well it doesn't matter.

The important thing is...

"You don't seem to be listening to me at all?"

Dietrich said.

Vaguely, there was some dissatisfaction in her words.

However, Hella shook her head.

"I heard, I can cooperate with you."

she said.

"It's just that if you don't succeed, I hope you can bring a word to Hodder for me."

"what?"

"Well... I actually didn't think about it."

"Then think about it slowly, but I guess it won't be necessary."

The King of Triumph pouted at this.

Maybe she didn't even realize it herself, although she felt a little awkward about the existence of the demon named Mehmet.

But she has never doubted that devil with a strange personality.

Because she subconsciously understood that, as her other mother and her source of strength, Mehmet would never harm her.

This is her heartfelt, subconscious trust.

"Then you sit here."

"Do you want to make some arrangements on site?"

"I still need it. After all, this magic seems to be a bit troublesome. Let me see what's going on..."

Then, Dietrich just took out a scroll of parchment.

It exudes the breath of runes, and it is obvious that the magic has been cast in advance, but it still needs a little preparation.

"The ceremony always needs to be walked."

Dietrich said.

"Although I don't know what it's useful for."

Then, she grabbed Grid's arm.

"Didn't you bark quite loudly before, don't pretend to be dead now."

Then, she directly pressed the severed limb that was still oozing blood on the sheepskin scroll.

"hiss……"

Even though she didn't yell out immediately, she was still sucking in air.

"No matter what you try to do now, it's useless, anyway, that man must die!"

At this point, Grid seems to have resigned herself to her fate.

However, she still clings to one thing.

"As long as that man is dead, all your efforts will be in vain!"

This almost hysterical tone made people feel uncomfortable, so Dietrich directly slapped her to the ground after getting Greed's blood.

Then, the parchment emitted a strange glow.

In an instant, the blood disappeared without a trace, as if it had completely merged into the parchment.

"Well, the main body is almost like this, and the next step is the runes."

Walking to Hela's side, she stuffed the parchment into Hela's arms.

"You take this and sit on the ground. If you are interested, you can take a look."

Then, Dietrich began to arrange manually.

To be on the safe side, she did not choose 'quick', but started to inscribe with a spear herself.

The first rune symbolizing matter.

The second rune symbolizing restoration.

There are various other runes.

She sculpted, while Hela stared at the parchment that Dietrich called the 'main body'.

The content expressed by the above runes directly points to a ritual.

"Use the blood as the key to sign a contract, and use the owner of the blood as a sacrifice, donate your life and soul to resurrect the body of the contract holder, and obtain everything from the sacrifice including memory and knowledge."

Although there are still many details, the main body confirmed by Hella is probably this little thing.

In fact, the contract holder must have certain obligations, but those things are obviously not important.

"This is a sacrificial ceremony..."

"you know?"

"Those under me will do something similar, they send the souls of heroes to my domain, and I give them power, but yours seem to be..."

"More cruel?"

"No, I'm curious about the developer of this magic, and the magic itself should have a prototype."

Then, Dietrich's hand that carved the rune stopped.

"The prototype is a contract, equivalent to an oath, and... demons, and some abilities of your giants."

Dietrich said.

And a novel vocabulary caught Hela's attention.

"Devil? What kind of existence?"

"A species that should be outside the Nine Realms, I don't know too well."

At this moment, the white-haired, horned image could not help appearing in her mind.

To her, the so-called 'demon' seems to have only this impression.

"Being able to have something to do with this kind of sacrificial contract must not be a kind person."

Hela said in a low voice.

"Some things are labeled from the beginning, just like those dark wizards under me."

Then, Dietrich gave an answer:

"My father gave his life and soul to the demon, and she became my mother...maybe on a spiritual level."

Then, she let out a long sigh of relief.

"She taught me this magic. Originally... it was supposed to be used to save my life."

"This kind of contract is not kind, but I can see that she loves you very much."

Chapter 28: The Place of the Living

It may be because from the standpoint of a bystander, Hela sees these things very clearly.

Just from the magic of this sacrificial ceremony, she can see that the creator of this magic has the characteristics of unscrupulous.

If necessary, she would absolutely plunder everything from others.

After all, it is clearly written in the contract, as the holder of the contract, you can obtain everything of the contractor including memory and knowledge.

The person who is a sacrifice must not survive, and this is a 'sacrifice', so even the soul and body will be annihilated.

Instead, another physical body was revived.

This kind of method is not cruel, but Hela can see a trace of love in it.

However, when she sighed that much, Dietrich didn't have any thoughts of responding.

That woman who should be called her mother, does the devil love her?

It should be love.

At this moment, the image of that woman could not help appearing in King Triumph's mind.

Then came scenes of memories stored in my mind.

Dietrich instinctively felt that the devil should be a cunning and cruel creature.

The blood in her told her so.

Do whatever you want, expect chaos, no order at all.

These are the manifestations of the monster inside her.

Since she is all like this, there is no reason for that woman to be a good wife and mother.

However, she was a little overwhelmed several times.

Mehmet has been explaining some of her actions to her.

Just like what she did in the palace of Ravenna, she helped her save the undeserving people in those palaces, and took care of some unnecessary troubles for her.

Moreover, she also asked the question she had asked in the first place.

travel far.

When everything is dealt with, should I follow her out of here?

Although for this point, Dietrich herself has already given the answer.

But the clumsiness and fragility displayed by the female demon still left a deep impression on her.

Maybe, this is... mother?

As Hela said, that woman loves herself.

However, her mood couldn't help becoming complicated.

Because Dietrich always subconsciously compares some things.

A human being can choose to kill the husband who shares the same bed for his own benefit, even the daughter does not want to let it go.

But a demon can learn how to be a mother.
